## What changed
- Replace `send_user_message_async` with `request_user_input_async`, accepting one or more questions with optional suggested answers while allowing the turn to continue.
- Attach structured question metadata to asynchronous agent messages while retaining readable fallback text, and preserve it through app-server events, thread history, and generated schemas.
- Continue enabling the new tool for model catalogs that advertise either the old or new tool name.
## Testing
- Cover tool registration, question validation, emitted items, continued turn execution, history preservation, and backwards-compatible deserialization.

## What changed
- Add an optional `toolOutput` to `turn/start` for starting or steering a turn with a named function-call output instead of user input.
- Emit standalone outputs as `functionCallOutput` thread items, persist them in durable history, and include them in resumed threads.
- Validate that tool outputs have a name, are not combined with nonempty `input`, satisfy the text-size limit, and use supported image URLs.
## Testing
- Cover standalone tool-output notifications, model input, and resumed history in both legacy and paginated history modes.
- Cover the text-size limit for structured tool output.

## Why
App-server clients need the explanation and steering instruction returned with a
misalignment policy violation to offer a user-confirmed continuation. Missing or
incomplete details must continue to behave as a terminal block.
## What changed
- Parse optional misalignment classification, explanation, and steering details
from streamed and HTTP Responses errors and propagate them through core errors.
- Include the details in live app-server `error` and `turn/completed` payloads and
export the corresponding protocol schemas and TypeScript types.
- Keep explanations and steering messages out of serialized rollout events and
redact them from debug output.
- Document how clients can resume with `turn/start` after user confirmation.
## Testing
- Cover streamed, HTTP, and WebSocket-wrapped errors, including malformed and
classification-only details.
- Verify live app-server notifications expose resumable details without writing
the explanation or steering message to the rollout.

## What changed
- Classify `response.failed` events with the `rate_limit_exceeded` code as a distinct retryable error while preserving any parsed retry delay.
- Expose the error as `rateLimitExceeded` through the core protocol and app-server schemas after stream retries are exhausted.
- Preserve the upstream message for TUI display while keeping it out of telemetry summaries.
## Testing
- Cover SSE classification, retry metadata, protocol conversion and serialization, exhausted stream retries, telemetry redaction, and TUI rendering.

## What changed
- Make `thread/turns/list`, `thread/items/list`, and `thread/revert` available
without the experimental API capability.
- Stabilize `thread/reverted`, `thread.historyMode`, and the pagination fields
used by `thread/resume` and `thread/fork`.
- Publish the promoted requests, responses, and fields in the stable JSON and
TypeScript schemas, and update the app-server documentation accordingly.

Deferred dynamic tools need to round-trip a namespace so a tool returned
by `tool_search` can be called through the same registry key that core
uses for dispatch.
This change adds namespace support for dynamic tool specs/calls,
persists it through app-server thread state, and routes dynamic tool
calls by full `ToolName` while still sending the app the leaf tool name.
Deferred dynamic tools must provide a namespace; non-deferred dynamic
tools may remain top-level.
It also introduces `LoadableToolSpec` as the shared
function-or-namespace Responses shape used by both `tool_search` output
and dynamic tool registration, so dynamic tools use the same wrapping
logic in both paths.
Validation:
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tool_search`

To improve performance of UI loads from the app, add two main
improvements:
1. The `thread/list` api now gets a `sortDirection` request field and a
`backwardsCursor` to the response, which lets you paginate forwards and
backwards from a window. This lets you fetch the first few items to
display immediately while you paginate to fill in history, then can
paginate "backwards" on future loads to catch up with any changes since
the last UI load without a full reload of the entire data set.
2. Added a new `thread/turns/list` api which also has sortDirection and
backwardsCursor for the same behavior as `thread/list`, allowing you the
same small-fetch for immediate display followed by background fill-in
and resync catchup.
