## What changed
- Fetch recommendations from the Codex-specific `/ps/plugins/suggested/codex` endpoint and parse its compact response shape.
- Fetch the selected plugin's details before presenting an install request, using them to verify availability and populate connector metadata.
- Skip install elicitation when the selected recommendation is no longer available, and return a retryable response when its metadata cannot be verified.
## Testing
- Cover the new recommendation route and response shape.
- Cover metadata hydration for available plugins and rejection of unavailable plugins.

## What changed
- Add the stable, disabled-by-default `recommended_plugins` feature flag.
- Load recommended plugin candidates when apps and plugins are enabled and
either `tool_suggest` or `recommended_plugins` is active.
- Keep the `request_plugin_install` tool gated by `tool_suggest`.
## Testing
- Cover the first turn after external login with `tool_suggest` both enabled
and disabled, including the expected install-tool availability.

## Why
We should be running as many integrations tests as possible against the
split cross-OS configuration.
## What
- migrate eligible thread starts and builders to auto env
- keep explicit custom/local-executor cases local with rationale
comments
- keep auto-env coverage where possible and add narrow `TODO(anp)` skips
for fixtures that are not target-native yet
## Summary
- enable the remote plugin feature by default
- promote the remote plugin feature from under development to stable
- preserve the existing `features.remote_plugin` override for explicitly
disabling it
- keep legacy disabled-path coverage explicit in TUI and app-server
tests
## Impact
Remote plugin functionality is enabled by default for configurations
that do not set the feature flag. The existing Codex backend
authentication gate still applies.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-features`
- `just test -p codex-tui
plugins_popup_remote_section_fallback_states_snapshot`
- targeted `codex-app-server` plugin-list and skills-list tests
- `git diff --check`
The full TUI and app-server suites were also exercised locally. All
remote-plugin-related coverage passed; unrelated local
sandbox/test-binary failures remain outside this change.
Summary\n- Await endpoint recommendation selection while constructing
each authenticated turn, removing the first-turn cache race.\n- Snapshot
and filter endpoint candidates once per turn, then use that same set for
the bounded contextual user fragment, tool exposure, and exact install
validation.\n- Keep recommendation selection ephemeral: do not persist
recommendation state in or gate resumed threads on prior context.\n-
Hide the legacy list tool in endpoint mode and preserve legacy discovery
unchanged when the endpoint is disabled or unavailable.\n- Keep remote
plugin and connector app identities out of model-visible context and
attach them only to Codex-owned elicitation metadata.\n\nStack\n- 3/4,
based on #28400.\n- Endpoint client and cache: #28399.\n- Generalized
suggestion presentation: #28400.\n- Install-schema follow-up:
#28403.\n\nValidation\n- \n- \n- \n- \n- Full : 2,649 passed and 88
environment-dependent tests failed because this sandbox cannot write ,
nest Seatbelt, or locate auxiliary test binaries.
