- clarify app mentions are in user messages
- clarify what it means for tools to be provided via `codex_apps` MCP
- add plugin descriptions (with basic sanitization) to top-level `##
Plugins` section alongside the corresponding plugin names
- explain that skills from plugins are prefixed with `plugin_name:` in
top-level `##Plugins` section
changes to more logically organize `Apps`, `Skills`, and `Plugins`
instructions will be in a separate PR, as that shuffles dev + user
instructions in ways that change tests broadly.
### Tests
confirmed in local rollout, some new tests.
## Summary
- launch Windows sandboxed children on a private desktop instead of
`Winsta0\Default`
- make private desktop the default while keeping
`windows.sandbox_private_desktop=false` as the escape hatch
- centralize process launch through the shared
`create_process_as_user(...)` path
- scope the private desktop ACL to the launching logon SID
## Why
Today sandboxed Windows commands run on the visible shared desktop. That
leaves an avoidable same-desktop attack surface for window interaction,
spoofing, and related UI/input issues. This change moves sandboxed
commands onto a dedicated per-launch desktop by default so the sandbox
no longer shares `Winsta0\Default` with the user session.
The implementation stays conservative on security with no silent
fallback back to `Winsta0\Default`
If private-desktop setup fails on a machine, users can still opt out
explicitly with `windows.sandbox_private_desktop=false`.
## Validation
- `cargo build -p codex-cli`
- elevated-path `codex exec` desktop-name probe returned
`CodexSandboxDesktop-*`
- elevated-path `codex exec` smoke sweep for shell commands, nested
`pwsh`, jobs, and hidden `notepad` launch
- unelevated-path full private-desktop compatibility sweep via `codex
exec` with `-c windows.sandbox=unelevated`
## Summary
- render code mode tool declarations as single-line TypeScript snippets
- make the JSON schema renderer emit inline object shapes for these
declarations
- update code mode/spec expectations to match the new inline rendering
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-core render_json_schema_to_typescript`
- `cargo test -p codex-core code_mode_augments_`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all exports_all_tools_metadata --
--nocapture`
## Summary
- move the multi-agent handlers suite into its own files for spawn,
wait, resume, send input, and close logic
- keep the aggregated module in place while delegating each handler to
its new file to keep things organized per handler
## Testing
- Not run (not requested)
## Summary
- add targeted diagnostic logging for the
read_only_unless_trusted_requires_approval scenarios in
approval_matrix_covers_all_modes
- add a scoped timeout buffer only for ro_unless_trusted write-file
scenarios: 1000ms -> 2000ms
- keep all other write-file scenarios at 1000ms
## Why
The last two main failures were both in codex-core::all
suite::approvals::approval_matrix_covers_all_modes with exit_code=124 in
the same scenario. This points to execution-time jitter in CI rather
than a semantic approval-policy mismatch.
## Notes
- This does not introduce any >5s timeout and does not
disable/quarantine tests.
- The timeout increase is tightly scoped to the single flaky path and
keeps the matrix deterministic under CI scheduling variance.
- add experimental_realtime_ws_mode (conversational/transcription) and
plumb it into realtime conversation session config
- switch realtime websocket intent and session.update payload shape
based on mode
- update config schema and realtime/config tests

## Summary
This lets skill loading split `permissions.network` into two distinct
pieces:
- `permissions.network.enabled` still feeds the skill
`PermissionProfile` and remains the coarse gate for whether the skill
can use network access at all.
- `permissions.network.allowed_domains` and
`permissions.network.denied_domains` are lifted into a new
`SkillManagedNetworkOverride` so managed-network sessions can start
per-skill scoped proxies with the right domain overrides.
The change also updates `SkillMetadata` construction sites and adds
loader tests covering YAML parsing plus normalization of the network
gate vs. domain override fields.
## Follow-up
A PR that uses the network_override to spin up a skill-specific proxy if
network_override is not none.
- Add a feature-flagged realtime v2 parser on the existing
websocket/session pipeline.
- Wire parser selection from core feature flags and map the codex
handoff tool-call path into existing handoff events.

Refactors cloud requirements error handling to carry structured error
metadata and surfaces that metadata through JSON-RPC config-load
failures, including:
* adds typed CloudRequirementsLoadErrorCode values plus optional
statusCode
* marks thread/start, thread/resume, and thread/fork config failures
with structured cloud-requirements error data
This change moves code_mode exec session settings out of the runtime API
and into an optional first-line pragma, so instead of calling runtime
helpers like set_yield_time() or set_max_output_tokens_per_exec_call(),
the model can write // @exec: {"yield_time_ms": ...,
"max_output_tokens": ...} at the top of the freeform exec source. Rust
now parses that pragma before building the source, validates it, and
passes the values directly in the exec start message to the code-mode
broker, which applies them at session start without any worker-runtime
mutation path. The @openai/code_mode module no longer exposes those
setter functions, the docs and grammar were updated to describe the
pragma form, and the existing code_mode tests were converted to use
pragma-based configuration instead.
## Summary
- preserve Linux bubblewrap semantics for `write -> none -> write`
filesystem policies by recreating masked mount targets before rebinding
narrower writable descendants
- add a Linux runtime regression for `/repo = write`, `/repo/a = none`,
`/repo/a/b = write` so the nested writable child is exercised under
bubblewrap
- document the supported legacy Landlock fallback and the split-policy
bubblewrap behavior for overlapping carveouts
## Example
Given a split filesystem policy like:
```toml
"/repo" = "write"
"/repo/a" = "none"
"/repo/a/b" = "write"
```
this PR keeps `/repo` writable, masks `/repo/a`, and still reopens
`/repo/a/b` as writable again under bubblewrap.
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-linux-sandbox`
- `cargo clippy -p codex-linux-sandbox --tests -- -D warnings`
## Summary
- return typed `ToolOutput` values from the multi-agent handlers instead
of plain `FunctionToolOutput`
- keep the regular function-call response shape as JSON text while
exposing structured values to code mode
- add output schemas for `spawn_agent`, `send_input`, `resume_agent`,
`wait`, and `close_agent`
## Verification
- `just fmt`
- focused multi-agent and integration tests passed earlier in this
branch during iteration
- after the final edit, I only reran formatting before opening this PR
## Stacked PRs
This work is now effectively split across two steps:
- #14178: add custom CA support for browser and device-code login flows,
docs, and hermetic subprocess tests
- #14239: extend that shared custom CA handling across Codex HTTPS
clients and secure websocket TLS
Note: #14240 was merged into this branch while it was stacked on top of
this PR. This PR now subsumes that websocket follow-up and should be
treated as the combined change.
Builds on top of #14178.
## Problem
Custom CA support landed first in the login path, but the real
requirement is broader. Codex constructs outbound TLS clients in
multiple places, and both HTTPS and secure websocket paths can fail
behind enterprise TLS interception if they do not honor
`CODEX_CA_CERTIFICATE` or `SSL_CERT_FILE` consistently.
This PR broadens the shared custom-CA logic beyond login and applies the
same policy to websocket TLS, so the enterprise-proxy story is no longer
split between “HTTPS works” and “websockets still fail”.
## What This Delivers
Custom CA support is no longer limited to login. Codex outbound HTTPS
clients and secure websocket connections can now honor the same
`CODEX_CA_CERTIFICATE` / `SSL_CERT_FILE` configuration, so enterprise
proxy/intercept setups work more consistently end-to-end.
For users and operators, nothing new needs to be configured beyond the
same CA env vars introduced in #14178. The change is that more of Codex
now respects them, including websocket-backed flows that were previously
still using default trust roots.
I also manually validated the proxy path locally with mitmproxy using:
`CODEX_CA_CERTIFICATE=~/.mitmproxy/mitmproxy-ca-cert.pem
HTTPS_PROXY=http://127.0.0.1:8080 just codex`
with mitmproxy installed via `brew install mitmproxy` and configured as
the macOS system proxy.
## Mental model
`codex-client` is now the owner of shared custom-CA policy for outbound
TLS client construction. Reqwest callers start from the builder
configuration they already need, then pass that builder through
`build_reqwest_client_with_custom_ca(...)`. Websocket callers ask the
same module for a rustls client config when a custom CA bundle is
configured.
The env precedence is the same everywhere:
- `CODEX_CA_CERTIFICATE` wins
- otherwise fall back to `SSL_CERT_FILE`
- otherwise use system roots
The helper is intentionally narrow. It loads every usable certificate
from the configured PEM bundle into the appropriate root store and
returns either a configured transport or a typed error that explains
what went wrong.
## Non-goals
This does not add handshake-level integration tests against a live TLS
endpoint. It does not validate that the configured bundle forms a
meaningful certificate chain. It also does not try to force every
transport in the repo through one abstraction; it extends the shared CA
policy across the reqwest and websocket paths that actually needed it.
## Tradeoffs
The main tradeoff is centralizing CA behavior in `codex-client` while
still leaving adoption up to call sites. That keeps the implementation
additive and reviewable, but it means the rule "outbound Codex TLS that
should honor enterprise roots must use the shared helper" is still
partly enforced socially rather than by types.
For websockets, the shared helper only builds an explicit rustls config
when a custom CA bundle is configured. When no override env var is set,
websocket callers still use their ordinary default connector path.
## Architecture
`codex-client::custom_ca` now owns CA bundle selection, PEM
normalization, mixed-section parsing, certificate extraction, typed
CA-loading errors, and optional rustls client-config construction for
websocket TLS.
The affected consumers now call into that shared helper directly rather
than carrying login-local CA behavior:
- backend-client
- cloud-tasks
- RMCP client paths that use `reqwest`
- TUI voice HTTP paths
- `codex-core` default reqwest client construction
- `codex-api` websocket clients for both responses and realtime
websocket connections
The subprocess CA probe, env-sensitive integration tests, and shared PEM
fixtures also live in `codex-client`, which is now the actual owner of
the behavior they exercise.
## Observability
The shared CA path logs:
- which environment variable selected the bundle
- which path was loaded
- how many certificates were accepted
- when `TRUSTED CERTIFICATE` labels were normalized
- when CRLs were ignored
- where client construction failed
Returned errors remain user-facing and include the relevant env var,
path, and remediation hint. That same error model now applies whether
the failure surfaced while building a reqwest client or websocket TLS
configuration.
## Tests
Pure unit tests in `codex-client` cover env precedence and PEM
normalization behavior. Real client construction remains in subprocess
tests so the suite can control process env and avoid the macOS seatbelt
panic path that motivated the hermetic test split.
The subprocess coverage verifies:
- `CODEX_CA_CERTIFICATE` precedence over `SSL_CERT_FILE`
- fallback to `SSL_CERT_FILE`
- single-cert and multi-cert bundles
- malformed and empty-file errors
- OpenSSL `TRUSTED CERTIFICATE` handling
- CRL tolerance for well-formed CRL sections
The websocket side is covered by the existing `codex-api` / `codex-core`
websocket test suites plus the manual mitmproxy validation above.
