## Why
Title and content searches exclude attached threads, preventing clients from finding their saved conversations alongside ordinary threads.
## What changed
- Add `includeAttachedThreads` to `thread/list` and `thread/search`. For `thread/list`, require a non-empty `searchTerm` and preserve the usual provider and source filters.
- Expose `attachedToThreadId` on thread responses to identify the owning parent independently of fork and subagent lineage.
- Support inclusive searches through SQLite and filesystem fallback, repairing missing database entries with saved thread names during title searches.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for opt-in title and content searches, attached-parent metadata after restart, default search filters, filesystem searches without SQLite, and discovery and repair of unindexed title matches.

## What changed
Move `ThreadMetadataBuilder` into its own module, make its fields private, and replace direct field assignments with fluent `with_*` methods. Initialize `updated_at` and `recency_at` from the creation time and default the approval mode to `OnRequest`.
Update `apply_rollout_items` to accept a boxed `ThreadMetadata` seed, keeping callers' async frames small while preserving existing database fields except for the seed rollout path. Add `build_thread_metadata` to use the state runtime's configured provider, and use `thread_id_from_rollout_path` directly for the doctor's filename fallback.

## What changed
Initialize thread metadata's `sandbox_policy` with a serialized `PermissionProfile::read_only()`, matching the format used by turn contexts and session settings. Remove the legacy `SandboxPolicy` field from `ThreadMetadataBuilder` and redundant rollout metadata defaults.
## Testing
Extend thread-store tests to cover reading the default read-only permission profile from SQLite and accepting both string and serialized legacy `danger-full-access` policies.

## Why
Timestamp-only cursors can skip threads that share the last result's timestamp, including rollout files created in the same second.
## What changed
- Include thread IDs as tie-breakers in time-sorted listing and search cursors, and use them when resuming filesystem scans and database queries.
- Share filesystem sort-key and cursor construction so continuation cursors match the listing order, including filename-based creation times.
- Preserve support for legacy timestamp-only cursors and their existing behavior of skipping ties.
## Testing
Update regression coverage for pagination through filesystem timestamp ties, legacy cursors, thread IDs in database fallback cursors, and search cursors for all time-based sort keys.
GitOrigin-RevId: 455b95452849e6ffe20a27d7bdcec864f2e8135a
## What changed
- Add `attachToSource` to `thread/fork` to persist a fork attached to its source without emitting `thread/started`. Attached forks require local storage and cannot use `ephemeral` or `deferGoalContinuation`.
- Hide attached threads from ordinary listings and add `attachedToThreadId` to `thread/list` for explicit discovery, including empty threads. Keep this relationship separate from spawned-agent parent and ancestor filters.
- Persist attachment metadata in rollouts and SQLite so it survives restarts and database recovery. Reject source deletion until its attached threads are deleted.
## Testing
Add coverage for legacy and paginated history, restart and missing or corrupt database recovery, filtered listings and pagination, resume, conflicting options, and deletion safeguards across store instances.
GitOrigin-RevId: 589f3174fc36f6054e75d65818360695645a5913
## Why
Session activity can move unread threads ahead of a pagination cursor, and timestamp-only cursors can skip threads with equal creation times. Either can prevent a session label lookup from detecting duplicate labels. Database failures must also remain distinguishable from an exhausted listing.
## What changed
- Resolve session labels using database-only listings ordered by `CreatedAt`, with thread IDs breaking timestamp ties. Accept unique matches across pages with valid timestamp-and-ID cursors, while retaining ambiguity errors for older cursors that cannot establish uniqueness.
- Preserve timestamp index ranges for database continuation queries and timestamp-only cursors for listings that may fall back to the filesystem.
- Propagate database-only listing and name-resolution failures. Keep best-effort name enrichment for ordinary listings and retry latest-session lookup with scan-and-repair after a database-only error.
- Keep loaded sessions selectable in the resume and fork pickers when a later page fails, stop further pagination, and display `Could not load more sessions`.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for creation-time continuation after session activity, cursor query plans, filesystem fallback, database and name-query errors, cross-page label uniqueness, older server cursors, and selection after picker pagination failures.
GitOrigin-RevId: 264ab2e69b8ad12d9edaa31fd253cb9805a46a90
## Why
Guardian review threads use synthetic approval prompts as user messages. Deriving thread titles and previews from those prompts exposes large, unhelpful summaries in thread listings.
## What changed
- Default Guardian threads to the title "Guardian review" and preview "Approval review" across metadata creation, rollout reads, and resume.
- Skip synthetic user messages and goal updates when deriving Guardian display metadata, leaving `first_user_message` unset for new threads.
- Preserve custom names, including legacy indexed names, when listing, reading, resuming, and migrating threads to paginated history.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for compact metadata, resume without session metadata, custom names before and after migration, and app-server persistence, listing, and rename/resume behavior.
GitOrigin-RevId: 42aa707db20c3e57ffa5fd4c91ee313710be10d7
## What changed
- Capture optional `creator_user_id` and `creator_account_id` from authentication when creating a thread, including forks.
- Carry these fields through thread storage, rollout metadata, and a SQLite migration. Leave them absent when unavailable or when reading older threads.
- Preserve recorded creator values across resume and metadata updates. On revert, recover missing rollout values from SQLite before writing replacement metadata.
## Testing
Add coverage for ChatGPT and API-key sessions, resume under another account, forks using current authentication, metadata extraction and upserts, and repeated reverts after creator fields are removed from a rollout.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9839fa42f9392f12226002e2c27d05d5656f5695
## Why
Clients need a per-thread Daybreak toggle that survives restarts and can be
restored on resume without changing the access program of an active or future
turn.
## What changed
- Add experimental `daybreakEnabled` support to `thread/metadata/update` and
expose the saved value on thread responses.
- Store the preference in SQLite, including for threads without a first turn,
and preserve it through reads, resumes, reconciliation, and restarts.
- Copy the preference when forking a thread while keeping subsequent updates
independent.
- Keep `daybreakEnabled` separate from the per-turn `cyberAccessProgram` field;
app-server does not derive one from the other.
## Testing
- Cover persistence across restarts, cold reads, reconciliation, and forks.
- Verify metadata updates do not alter the access program of active or later
turns.
GitOrigin-RevId: bcf987a9fcd7b0ac8a88b1c8f0df06b33ed8ad6e
## What changed
- Add the creation-time `originator` to app-server thread responses and `thread/started` notifications.
- Persist originators in thread metadata and preserve the first recorded value across list, read, resume, rollout, and SQLite paths.
- Add an `originators` allowlist to `thread/list` for hosted backends. The local app-server accepts omitted or empty values but rejects nonempty filters.
## Testing
- Cover originator persistence across server restarts and list, read, and resume requests.
- Verify local `thread/list` handling for nonempty, omitted, null, and empty originator filters.
- Heap-allocate large TUI dispatcher futures in affected tests to keep them within the Windows test-thread stack.
GitOrigin-RevId: 73ad6e61b8fdd2d93a22d1f971723a19ec7be3fc
## Why
Git remote URLs can embed usernames, passwords, or tokens. Codex carries these
URLs through turn metadata and persisted thread metadata, so credentials must be
removed before a remote enters those paths.
## What changed
- Add `SanitizedGitUrl`, which parses Git URL and SCP-style remotes, strips
authentication data, and preserves the conventional `git` SSH user.
- Use sanitized remotes when collecting Git metadata, enriching model requests,
discovering cloud environments, updating thread metadata, and reading legacy
rollouts. Reject or omit malformed remotes instead of retaining their raw
contents.
- Keep API, schema, and TypeScript representations as strings while enforcing
sanitization in Rust.
## Testing
- Cover URL schemes, SCP and IPv6 forms, remote helpers, encoded paths,
malformed values, and legacy deserialization.
- Verify credentials do not appear in model requests, API responses, SQLite, or
rollout files.
GitOrigin-RevId: 6435efc4c45bfbfad4723ce7a0457cb00175f25c
## What changed
- Add optional `icon` and `color` appearance fields to custom thread sections and expose them through the app-server protocol.
- Persist appearance metadata in SQLite and include it when listing sections or returning threads.
- Let `threadSection/update` preserve an omitted appearance, clear it with `null`, or replace it with a new value.
- Reject appearance fields larger than 64 bytes.
## Testing
- Cover protocol compatibility, persistence across restart, update and clear behavior, and field-length validation.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8f55ce4f42f8bd17aa5416848a85845f681953df
## What changed
- Add `thread/section/move` to atomically move a thread into, within, or out of a section. Threads can be inserted before an existing member or appended, and moves within a section preserve `sectionEnteredAt`.
- Add `section_position` sorting to `thread/list`, with ascending order as its default, and expose `sectionEnteredAt` in thread responses.
- Persist section positions and entry times in SQLite, including migration of existing section members into recency order. Section membership is no longer updated through `thread/metadata/update`.
## Testing
- Cover section moves, reordering, pagination, persistence across restarts and rollout reconciliation, concurrent updates, and rank renumbering.
GitOrigin-RevId: aec6d7ddedca5277029b5caf5c074975397e956c
## What changed
- Replace the `isPinned` thread metadata and filters with an optional persisted
`section` and `sectionId`.
- Add the paginated `threadSection/list` app-server method so clients can
discover sections even when they contain no threads.
- Seed a stable `Pinned` section, validate section assignments, and support
filtering for a specific section or for unsectioned threads.
## Testing
- Cover section protocol serialization, listing and pagination, metadata
updates, filtering, persistence, migration compatibility, and operation
without SQLite state.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7972b5471d29317b9387bfd90aa9f573f691ad4c
## What changed
- Add `isPinned` to thread responses and allow `thread/metadata/update` to pin or unpin stored threads.
- Add an `isPinned` filter to `thread/list`, including cursor-based pagination and combinations with relationship filters.
- Persist pin state in SQLite without modifying rollout files, default existing threads to unpinned, and preserve pins through reconciliation and archive transitions.
## Testing
- Cover protocol serialization, database migration and indexing, pin updates, filtered pagination, rollout reconciliation, and archive/unarchive behavior.
GitOrigin-RevId: c2eacabd6dae465e2ae6ce8a169e00740960cdb7
## Why
Paginated rollouts contain only the initial Git metadata tuple. Reusing that
tuple during later reads, reconciliation, or resume can overwrite newer SQLite
values and undo explicit field clears.
## What changed
- Treat SQLite as authoritative for Git metadata once a thread is paginated.
- Apply paginated Git metadata patches directly to SQLite without appending
compatibility metadata to the rollout.
- Preserve explicit null values when reading by rollout path or reconciling the
initial session metadata, and ignore the initial Git tuple during resume.
## Testing
Added coverage for updating and clearing paginated Git metadata, preserving the
result through reconciliation and rollout-path reads, and avoiding stale Git
metadata updates on resume.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4d3e68cb24965b93d337d923092a98bac9b352b5
## Why
Paginated threads need explicit user-facing names to remain distinct from
derived titles and previews without requiring rollout metadata writes.
## What changed
- Add a nullable `name` column to persisted thread metadata and use it as the
canonical name for paginated threads.
- Route paginated name updates through the state database while retaining the
name index as best-effort compatibility data and preserving legacy thread
behavior.
- Return persisted names when reading, listing, searching, and resuming
paginated threads, and include them in state-database search matching.
## Testing
- Cover paginated name updates, reads, list/search results, and metadata-only
resume behavior, including stale or unavailable compatibility data.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5ac4dfa2a83682b43d59ecc87e0f515580164dca
## Description
This PR adds a new `historyMode = "legacy" | "paginated"` to `Thread`.
This will be stored in `SessionMeta` in the JSONL rollout file and as a
new column in the SQLite thread_metadata table, and exposed on
`thread/start` and on the `Thread` object in app-server.
## What changed
- Added canonical `ThreadHistoryMode` with `legacy` and `paginated`,
defaulting old and new SessionMeta to `legacy`.
- Carried `history_mode` through core session config, ThreadStore stored
metadata, local/in-memory stores, rollout metadata extraction, and the
existing SQLite `threads` table.
- Added experimental `historyMode` to app-server v2 `Thread` and
`thread/start`.
- Made paginated stored threads metadata-discoverable but unsupported
for legacy full-history reads, `load_history`, live resume, and create
paths.
- Regenerated app-server schema fixtures and added
protocol/state/thread-store/app-server coverage for persistence and
fail-closed behavior.
## Compatibility floor
Because users may be running various versions of Codex binaries on the
same machine (TUI, Codex App, etc.), we will need to establish a
compatibility floor for upcoming paginated threads, which will change
how thread storage reads and writes work.
The overall plan here:
```
Release N:
- Add historyMode to SessionMeta / Thread / SQLite metadata.
- Teach binaries to understand paginated threads.
- If a binary sees `historyMode="paginated"` but does not support the paginated contract, it refuses to resume/mutate the thread.
- Default remains `"legacy"`.
Release N+1:
- First-party clients start opting into paginated threads where appropriate.
- Internal dogfood / staged rollout.
- Measure old-client usage and paginated-thread unsupported errors.
Release N+2:
- Only after Release N+ is overwhelmingly deployed, make paginated the default.
- Accept that a small tail of N-1-or-older binaries may not understand paginated threads.
```
The important behavior change is fail-closed handling for a binary that
encounters a persisted `paginated` thread before it knows how to fully
support paginated history. In app-server, if a thread is `paginated`, we
will:
- allow metadata-only discovery paths like `thread/list` and
`thread/read(includeTurns=false)`, so clients can still see the thread
and inspect its `historyMode`
- reject legacy full-history/live-thread paths like
`thread/read(includeTurns=true)` and `thread/resume` with an unsupported
JSON-RPC error
- avoid silently treating an unknown or future `historyMode` as `legacy`
Under the hood, the ThreadStore layer also rejects legacy operations
that would need to load or replay the full thread history for a
paginated thread. That gives us the behavior we want for Release N:
future paginated threads are visible, but this binary fails closed
instead of trying to operate on them as if they were legacy threads.
## Why
`thread/list` can filter direct children with `parentThreadId`, but
clients cannot request an entire spawned subtree. Discovering every
descendant requires repeated client-side requests and gives up the
database's existing filtering and pagination path.
## What changed
Experimental clients can use `ancestorThreadId` to return strict
descendants at any depth while `parentThreadId` retains its direct-child
meaning. The filters are mutually exclusive, the ancestor is excluded,
and every result preserves its immediate `parentThreadId` so callers can
reconstruct the tree.
## How it works
- **Explicit relationship:** Internal list parameters distinguish direct
children from transitive descendants without changing the meaning of
`parentThreadId`.
- **Existing graph:** Persisted parent-child spawn edges remain the
source of truth, so descendant lookup needs no schema migration or
ancestry cache.
- **Indexed traversal:** A recursive SQLite query starts from the
parent-edge index, walks each generation, and applies thread filters,
sorting, and cursor pagination in the same database request.
- **Reconstructable results:** The response stays flat and normally
ordered while carrying each descendant's immediate parent.
## Verification
Ran 550 tests across the protocol, state, rollout, and thread-store
crates, then reran the four focused state, store, and app-server
descendant-listing tests after the final diff reduction. Scoped Clippy
and formatting checks passed. Stable and experimental schema generation
was checked; the stable fixtures remain unchanged while the experimental
schema includes the new field.
## Summary
- Revert #28655, restoring the thread `recencyAt` behavior introduced by
#27910.
- Move `threads_recency_at` to migration 0039 so it no longer collides
with `external_agent_config_imports` at version 0038.
- Repair databases that already applied the recency migration as version
38 by moving the matching migration-history row to version 39 before
SQLx validation. The current version-38 migration can then apply
normally.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-state
migrations::tests::repairs_recency_migration_that_was_applied_as_version_38`
- `just test -p codex-state -p codex-rollout -p codex-thread-store -p
codex-app-server-protocol -p codex-tui`: 3,439 passed; six TUI tests
could not open the machine's existing read-only incident database at
`~/.codex/sqlite/state_5.sqlite`.
- `just fix -p codex-state`
- `just fmt`
- Verified that state migration versions are unique.
## Why
Revert #27910 to remove the newly introduced thread `recencyAt`
persistence and API behavior from `main`.
## What changed
This reverts commit `fac3158c2a783095768076489815f361fa9b0db4`,
including the state migration, thread-store propagation, app-server API
surface, generated schemas, and related tests.
## Validation
Not run before opening; relying on CI for the initial fast signal.
## Summary
Add a server-owned `recencyAt` timestamp and `recency_at` thread-list
sort key for product recency ordering while preserving the existing
meaning of `updatedAt` as the latest persisted thread mutation.
This is the server-side alternative to #27697. Rather than narrowing
`updatedAt`, clients can sort the sidebar by `recency_at` and continue
treating `updatedAt` as mutation time.
Paired Codex Apps PR:
[openai/openai#1024599](https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/1024599)
## Contract
- `recencyAt` initializes when a thread is created.
- A turn start advances `recencyAt` monotonically.
- Commentary, agent output, tool results, token/accounting updates, turn
completion, archive, unarchive, resume, and generic metadata writes do
not advance it.
- `updatedAt` retains its existing behavior and continues to advance for
persisted thread mutations.
- Current servers populate `recencyAt`; the response field is optional
in generated TypeScript so clients connected to older servers can fall
back to `updatedAt`.
- Filesystem-only fallback uses existing updated/mtime ordering when
SQLite is unavailable.
## Persistence and compatibility
Migration 0038 adds second- and millisecond-precision recency columns,
backfills them from the existing updated timestamp, creates list
indexes, and includes an insert trigger so older binaries writing to a
migrated database seed recency without causing later mutations to
advance it.
Generic metadata upserts preserve existing recency values. Turn-start
updates use a dedicated monotonic touch, and process-local allocation
keeps millisecond cursor values unique. State DB list, search, read,
filtered-list repair, rollout fallback propagation, and app-server
conversions all carry the new field.
## API
`Thread` responses include:
```ts
recencyAt?: number
```
`thread/list` and `thread/search` accept:
```json
{ "sortKey": "recency_at" }
```
Generated TypeScript and JSON schemas are included.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-state` — 146 passed
- `just test -p codex-rollout` — 69 passed
- `just test -p codex-thread-store` — 81 passed
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol` — 231 passed
- Focused app-server list ordering, response mapping, archive/unarchive,
and resume lifecycle tests passed
- Scoped `just fix` for state, rollout, thread-store,
app-server-protocol, and app-server
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
- Independent correctness, simplicity, elegance, security, and
test-quality reviews; actionable ordering, lifecycle, query-projection,
and timestamp-uniqueness findings were addressed
## Why
- `ThreadSource` currently defines a closed set of core-owned values
- Product features also create threads for background or scheduled work
- Adding every product-specific value to the core enum would require
repeated `codex-rs` protocol changes
- Feature-backed values let product callers provide precise attribution
while preserving the existing core classifications
## What Changed
- Adds `ThreadSource::Feature(String)` for app-owned thread source
values
- Represents all app-server v2 thread sources as scalar strings, so a
feature source is supplied as `"automation"`
- Persists and emits the feature's plain string label, so `"automation"`
produces `thread_source="automation"` in analytics
- Keeps `user`, `subagent`, and `memory_consolidation` as explicit
core-owned values and regenerates the app-server schemas and TypeScript
bindings
## Verification
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `cargo check --workspace`
- `just test -p codex-protocol

- `just fmt`
## Summary
- accept non-empty model-defined reasoning effort values while
preserving built-in effort behavior
- propagate the non-Copy effort type through core, app-server, TUI,
telemetry, and persistence call sites
- preserve string wire encoding and expose an open-string schema for
clients
- update model selection and shortcut behavior for model-advertised
effort values
## Root cause
`ReasoningEffort` gained a string-backed custom variant, so it could no
longer implement `Copy` or rely on derived closed-enum serialization.
Existing consumers still moved effort values from shared references and
assumed a fixed built-in value set.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- Local tests and compilation were not run per request; relying on CI.
## Summary
- preserve existing explicit SQLite thread titles during rollout
reconciliation/backfill when the incoming rollout title is only
first-message-derived
- keep stale inferred-title repair behavior while avoiding session-index
scans during startup backfill
- add a regression test for renamed titles surviving reconcile
## Testing
- just fmt
- just test -p codex-rollout
- just test -p codex-state
Fixes#20792
## Why
`/goal`-first threads are valid resumable threads, but they can be
missing from `codex resume` and app recents because discovery depends on
metadata derived from a normal first user message.
PR #21489 attempted to fix this by using the goal objective as
`first_user_message`. Review feedback pointed out that
`first_user_message` does more than provide visible text today: it gates
listing, supplies preview text, and participates in deciding whether a
later title should surface as a distinct thread name. Reusing it for the
goal objective could leave a `/goal`-first thread with
`first_user_message=<goal>` and `title=<later prompt>`, even though the
goal should only provide the initial visible preview.
This PR follows that feedback by and keeps the `first_user_message` as
is but introduces a new `preview` field to separate concerns. The
`preview` field is populated from the first user message or the goal
objective. We can extend it in the future to include other sources.
## What Changed
- Added internal thread `preview` metadata in `codex-state`, including a
SQLite migration that backfills from `first_user_message` and from
existing `thread_goals` objectives when needed.
- Treated `ThreadGoalUpdated` as preview-bearing metadata so goal-first
threads can be listed and searched without mutating
`first_user_message`.
- Updated rollout listing, state queries, thread-store conversion, and
app-server mapping to use preview metadata while continuing to expose
the existing public `preview` field.
- Preserved title/name distinctness behavior around literal
`first_user_message`, so a later normal prompt after `/goal` does not
surface as a separate name just because the goal supplied the initial
preview.
- Preserved compatibility for older/internal metadata writes by deriving
preview from `first_user_message` when explicit preview metadata is
absent.
## Verification
- Manually verified that a thread that starts with a `/goal <objective>`
shows up in the resume picker.
## Summary
- make `thread_source` an explicit optional thread-level field on
`thread/start`, `thread/fork`, and returned thread payloads
- persist `thread_source` in rollout/session metadata so resumed live
threads retain the original value
- replace the old best-effort `session_source` -> `thread_source`
mapping with an explicit caller-supplied analytics classification
## Why
Before this change, analytics `thread_source` was populated by a
best-effort mapping from `session_source`. `session_source` describes
the runtime/client surface, not the actual thread-level origin, so that
projection was not accurate enough to distinguish cases such as `user`,
`subagent`, `memory_consolidation`, and future thread origins reliably.
Making `thread_source` explicit keeps one thread-level analytics field
while letting callers provide the real classification directly instead
of recovering it indirectly from `session_source`.
## Impact
For new analytics events, `thread_source` now reflects the explicit
thread-level classification supplied by the caller rather than an
inferred value derived from `session_source`. Existing protocol fields
remain optional; callers that omit `threadSource` now produce `null`
instead of a best-effort inferred value.
## Validation
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `cargo test -p codex-analytics -p codex-core -p

- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol

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.
To allow the ability to have guaranteed-unique cursors, we make two
important updates:
* Add new updated_at_ms and created_at_ms columns that are in
millisecond precision
* Guarantee uniqueness -- if multiple items are inserted at the same
millisecond, bump the new one by one millisecond until it becomes unique
This lets us use single-number cursors for forwards and backwards paging
through resultsets and guarantee that the cursor is a fixed point to do
(timestamp > cursor) and get new items only.
This updated implementation is backwards-compatible since multiple
appservers can be running and won't handle the previous method well.
## Why
`argument-comment-lint` was green in CI even though the repo still had
many uncommented literal arguments. The main gap was target coverage:
the repo wrapper did not force Cargo to inspect test-only call sites, so
examples like the `latest_session_lookup_params(true, ...)` tests in
`codex-rs/tui_app_server/src/lib.rs` never entered the blocking CI path.
This change cleans up the existing backlog, makes the default repo lint
path cover all Cargo targets, and starts rolling that stricter CI
enforcement out on the platform where it is currently validated.
## What changed
- mechanically fixed existing `argument-comment-lint` violations across
the `codex-rs` workspace, including tests, examples, and benches
- updated `tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh` and
`tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh` so non-`--fix` runs default to
`--all-targets` unless the caller explicitly narrows the target set
- fixed both wrappers so forwarded cargo arguments after `--` are
preserved with a single separator
- documented the new default behavior in
`tools/argument-comment-lint/README.md`
- updated `rust-ci` so the macOS lint lane keeps the plain wrapper
invocation and therefore enforces `--all-targets`, while Linux and
Windows temporarily pass `-- --lib --bins`
That temporary CI split keeps the stricter all-targets check where it is
already cleaned up, while leaving room to finish the remaining Linux-
and Windows-specific target-gated cleanup before enabling
`--all-targets` on those runners. The Linux and Windows failures on the
intermediate revision were caused by the wrapper forwarding bug, not by
additional lint findings in those lanes.
## Validation
- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh`
- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --lib --bins`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --tests`
- `just argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test` in `tools/argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test -p codex-terminal-detection`
## Follow-up

This PR add an URI-based system to reference agents within a tree. This
comes from a sync between research and engineering.
The main agent (the one manually spawned by a user) is always called
`/root`. Any sub-agent spawned by it will be `/root/agent_1` for example
where `agent_1` is chosen by the model.
Any agent can contact any agents using the path.
Paths can be used either in absolute or relative to the calling agents
Resume is not supported for now on this new path
### Summary
The goal is for us to get the latest turn model and reasoning effort on
thread/resume is no override is provided on the thread/resume func call.
This is the part 1 which we write the model and reasoning effort for a
thread to the sqlite db and there will be a followup PR to consume the
two new fields on thread/resume.
[part 2 PR is currently WIP](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/14888)
and this one can be merged independently.
## Summary
- add the v2 `thread/metadata/update` API, including
protocol/schema/TypeScript exports and app-server docs
- patch stored thread `gitInfo` in sqlite without resuming the thread,
with validation plus support for explicit `null` clears
- repair missing sqlite thread rows from rollout data before patching,
and make those repairs safe by inserting only when absent and updating
only git columns so newer metadata is not clobbered
- keep sqlite authoritative for mutable thread git metadata by
preserving existing sqlite git fields during reconcile/backfill and only
using rollout `SessionMeta` git fields to fill gaps
- add regression coverage for the endpoint, repair paths, concurrent
sqlite writes, clearing git fields, and rollout/backfill reconciliation
- fix the login server shutdown race so cancelling before the waiter
starts still terminates `block_until_done()` correctly
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-state
apply_rollout_items_preserves_existing_git_branch_and_fills_missing_git_fields`
- `cargo test -p codex-state

- `cargo test -p codex-app-server thread_metadata_update`
- `cargo test`
- currently fails in existing `codex-core` grep-files tests with
`unsupported call: grep_files`:
- `suite::grep_files::grep_files_tool_collects_matches`
- `suite::grep_files::grep_files_tool_reports_empty_results`
`SandboxPolicy::ReadOnly` previously implied broad read access and could
not express a narrower read surface.
This change introduces an explicit read-access model so we can support
user-configurable read restrictions in follow-up work, while preserving
current behavior today.
It also ensures unsupported backends fail closed for restricted-read
policies instead of silently granting broader access than intended.
## What
- Added `ReadOnlyAccess` in protocol with:
- `Restricted { include_platform_defaults, readable_roots }`
- `FullAccess`
- Updated `SandboxPolicy` to carry read-access configuration:
- `ReadOnly { access: ReadOnlyAccess }`
- `WorkspaceWrite { ..., read_only_access: ReadOnlyAccess }`
- Preserved existing behavior by defaulting current construction paths
to `ReadOnlyAccess::FullAccess`.
- Threaded the new fields through sandbox policy consumers and call
sites across `core`, `tui`, `linux-sandbox`, `windows-sandbox`, and
related tests.
- Updated Seatbelt policy generation to honor restricted read roots by
emitting scoped read rules when full read access is not granted.
- Added fail-closed behavior on Linux and Windows backends when
restricted read access is requested but not yet implemented there
(`UnsupportedOperation`).
- Regenerated app-server protocol schema and TypeScript artifacts,
including `ReadOnlyAccess`.
## Compatibility / rollout
- Runtime behavior remains unchanged by default (`FullAccess`).
- API/schema changes are in place so future config wiring can enable
restricted read access without another policy-shape migration.
Summary:
- read conversation summaries and cwd info from the state DB when
possible so we no longer rely on rollout files for metadata and avoid
extra I/O
- persist CLI version in thread metadata, surface it through summary
builders, and add the necessary DB migration hooks
- simplify thread listing by using enriched state DB data directly
rather than reading rollout heads
Testing:
- Not run (not requested)
