## What changed
- Wait for a request tagged with `x-openai-subagent: guardian` before triggering cancellation, disconnection, or timeout in network approval tests.
- Read the last yielded parent request in the tool cancellation test, with an explicit error if no request was captured.
- Disable WebSockets in the issuing-step permissions test to use its HTTP mock server.

## Why
Orchestrator skill caches were tied to the entire MCP connection set, so runtime updates could discard cached catalogs and contents even when the Apps connection was reused. Plugin changes still need to refresh those resources without requiring a reconnect.
## What changed
Key orchestrator skill caches by the Apps server connection and an explicit invalidation generation. Preserve cached resources while that identity stays unchanged, and invalidate them on MCP runtime refresh requests or configuration refreshes. Replacing the connection also changes the cache identity.
## Testing
Extend the production-turn integration test to verify cache reuse across ordinary turns and approval-policy changes, refreshed skill contents after plugin invalidation without reconnecting, and fresh resource requests after a forced reconnect.
GitOrigin-RevId: 43ce059972369c4c735742e8224b60a692244b02
## What changed
- Add `ResolvedModelMessages` to resolve catalog text and bundled defaults while preserving explicit empty overrides and their source.
- Move base-instruction rendering, Guardian prompt composition, multi-agent role rendering, and `update_plan` guidance filtering into `codex-prompts`; migrate consumers to the shared APIs.
- Separate permission-profile resolution from prompt composition, and annotate Guardian policy and classifier instructions with content kinds.
## Testing
Add and update coverage for missing versus empty templates, literal overrides, multi-agent role composition, Guardian policy substitution and truncation, and preservation of permission path spellings and order.
GitOrigin-RevId: 52335bb7acec0f432d5c57acb2accd5f0276056e
## Why
With `NonfatalClockReadErrors` enabled, a clock failure after a successful read could be suppressed if an earlier failure had already been reported in the same turn and context window. This left the model without a fresh notice that the clock was unavailable again.
## What changed
Clear `last_clock_failure` after a successful clock read so a subsequent outage produces a new notice while consecutive failures remain deduplicated.
## Testing
Add a regression test that scripts two failures, a successful read, and another failure within one turn. It verifies that the consecutive failures share one notice, recovery delivers a time reminder, and the later failure adds a new notice.
GitOrigin-RevId: f2a9c4d7b63f2e8408a47b1803b0bc4577f23f32
## Why
Reusing a Guardian reviewer could trigger a model catalog refresh during the previous-model compaction check, even when the model was unchanged and no compaction compatibility change required compaction.
## What changed
Return early from the previous-model compaction check for Guardian sessions when the model slug is unchanged and the compaction compatibility hashes do not require compaction.
## Testing
Add a regression test with an expired model catalog cache that verifies two approvals reuse the same Guardian reviewer, both reviews and the parent turn complete, and no additional model catalog request occurs.
GitOrigin-RevId: cc1cdc5f89c6f9ec03f1bedfb78cad9780825733
## Why
Executor profile roots can use path conventions that are not native to the current host. Converting them to host paths during configuration or turn reconstruction can reject or drop those roots, while case-insensitive comparison can hide Windows path spelling changes.
## What changed
- Store profile roots as URI-backed `ProfileWorkspaceRoot` values throughout permission snapshots and thread settings, preserving spelling in equality and deduplication.
- Keep effective workspace roots as `PathUri` values for permission materialization and status summaries. Convert Windows sandbox root hints to native paths only at native Windows sandbox boundaries, rejecting incompatible roots.
- Omit the legacy rollout `workspace_roots` field when profile roots cannot be represented as host paths, retaining the compiled permission profile.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for Windows and UNC root spelling changes, settings restoration and turn recording with foreign roots, executor-root status display, and backend-specific Windows root conversion.
GitOrigin-RevId: 903c068fd74959bdd10e7cb1141aa42b953a59a4
## Why
Clock provider failures can abort a turn while preparing time context or running clock tools. Allow turns to continue with an explicit indication that the current time is unavailable.
## What changed
- Add `features.nonfatal_clock_read_errors`, disabled by default, to report clock failures to the model without failing the turn.
- Emit a generic `failed to read current time` notice for context reads and tool errors, without exposing provider error details. Deduplicate context notices per turn and compaction window, and remove inherited notices from forked subagent context.
- Omit unavailable environment dates and explicitly clear previously visible dates with `<current_date status="unavailable" />`.
- Return external sleep clock failures to the model when the feature is enabled, preserving sleep item completion notifications.
## Testing
Add coverage for continued inference after clock failures, notice deduplication across compaction, subagent notice filtering, environment date removal and recovery, and sleep failures during initial and polling reads.
GitOrigin-RevId: a39c3723c06a6f786d8ad59d667e8b9f626c973e
## Why
Daemon recovery reloads threads but leaves interrupted work unfinished. Resume eligible work automatically from the saved conversation, even without a connected client.
## What changed
- Attempt one new continuation turn immediately after restoration, including in Plan mode. Mark the old turn interrupted and supply recovery context without creating a user message or granting new authorization.
- Require an idle thread, matching permissions, and the same single local environment configured by the thread. Skip completed, aborted, or superseded work and snapshots without environment identity.
- Add `continue_turn_if_idle` with an atomic previous-turn check so newer tasks or standalone settings changes invalidate pending continuation.
- Preserve the output schema, service tier, and root turn ID, and emit a “Resuming interrupted work” warning when continuation starts.
## Testing
Add daemon restart coverage for continuation without a client, Plan mode, permission and environment mismatches, and legacy snapshots. Add core coverage for preserved continuation metadata, absence of user-message events, rejection of superseded continuations, and exclusion of remote execution from recovery snapshots.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2b290b75d9399fc58258bcda2e85c74e9b5b3b09
## What changed
- Add an optional `WorkspaceRoutingResolver` to `AuthManager` and pass session configuration into routing lookups. Callers without a resolver retain existing routing behavior.
- Apply resolved backend origins and account routing overrides to eligible ChatGPT Responses HTTP requests and WebSocket handshakes. Preserve endpoint paths, validate routing values, and reject HTTP redirects for routed requests, including `NO_CONSTRAINT` routes.
- Key cached WebSocket connections by destination, routing header, and auth revision. Rebuild request setup after credential refreshes and reject account changes during setup or routing discovery.
- Serialize routing lookups per session and retain whether the session has previously been routed.
## Testing
Add tests for path preservation, provider exclusions, concurrent routing lookups, unavailable resolvers, workspace mismatches, redirect rejection, and credential refresh or account changes during request setup.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2b6609019e84a315745c94858955f3f16426fe7f
## What changed
- Accept and ignore `features.personality` in user configuration, profiles, and managed requirements.
- Remove feature gating from `personality = "none"`, which strips the literal `# Personality` section when preparing model catalog instructions. Preserve explicit base instructions and existing thread instructions.
- Document deprecated personality fields in configuration, app-server schemas, and the Python SDK: `friendly` and `pragmatic` no longer select a style, and `supportsPersonality` is always `false`.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for ignored legacy flag values and managed requirements, personality opt-out behavior with the flag absent or set to either value, role overrides, and preservation of explicit base instructions, including empty strings.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4e12c66b42bfc59d6f151a5b3c28fadc6654ae99
## Why
Managed daemon recovery snapshots previously saved only loaded thread IDs, without identifying active turns or preserving their turn-specific options.
## What changed
- Capture regular, uncanceled turns after their input is recorded, saving the turn ID, output schema, service tier, and cyber access program alongside persisted thread IDs.
- Store interruption metadata atomically in the existing candidate array format so older servers can still read thread candidates.
- Begin snapshotting once admitted operations drain, while turns may still be running. Run snapshot collection and thread listener attachment independently of the event loop to keep forced shutdown responsive.
## Testing
Add coverage for running, completed, canceled, and compacting turns; recovery readiness for automatic and user turns; admitted resumes during shutdown; forced shutdown with a blocked rollout writer and child listener attachment; and legacy candidate-array compatibility.
GitOrigin-RevId: ed46342c3a5c71b09c48fa9acece2f15ae748e2f
## What changed
- Accept `fileId` alongside the existing `url` form for app-server image inputs, and forward file references to the Responses API as `file_id`. Update generated schemas and client types.
- Preserve file references, image detail hints, and mixed inline/file image ordering through user-message events, thread history, and rollout migration. Retain file images when truncating tool output.
- Pass file references through image preparation without resolving them, while keeping resize-notice numbering correct. Omit them from unsupported TUI display and Guardian image context.
- Reject image-edit requests whose recent-image window includes a file reference, preventing selection of an older inline image instead.
## Testing
Add coverage for serialization, request and rollout preservation, mixed-image history ordering, incomplete ordering metadata, tool-output truncation, and rejection of unsupported image-edit selections.
GitOrigin-RevId: 6ca20a8577155cc934b720803c3b7b3bffdf972a
## Why
A checkpoint produced by a previous model may be incompatible with the selected Guardian reviewer. Legacy review must retain user restrictions and verified answers across compaction and restart until a compatible checkpoint is available.
## What changed
- Expose retained user evidence independently of whether Guardian reviews the legacy transcript or parent context.
- Resolve the selected reviewer's compaction compatibility hash during resume and remote compaction. Preserve the legacy transcript when checkpoint compatibility is unknown or mismatched.
- Activate parent-context review immediately after compatible compaction and invalidate pending reviews bound to the previous evidence policy. Ordinary compaction preserves pending reviews.
- Keep strict compatibility checks for previously migrated checkpoints whose complete legacy transcript is no longer available.
## Testing
Add coverage for mismatched checkpoint hashes, retained evidence during legacy review, and pending-review cancellation on migration. Add a request-history scenario covering a model switch, incompatible automatic compaction, restart, and compatible manual compaction with preserved user restrictions and verified answers.
GitOrigin-RevId: b52bfd7c21ce7ebed482174c8d7c327e50b1ada8
## Why
Older compaction checkpoints can lack a producer model hash. Enabling thread-owned Guardian context must accommodate those checkpoints without losing user instructions or verified answers.
## What changed
- Select review policy from each history snapshot independently of the session's evidence capture policy.
- Keep legacy review for checkpoints with missing or empty producer hashes when the transcript preserves the evidence. Preserve strict compatibility checks when review depends on retained-only evidence.
- Continue capturing retained instructions and answers during migration, while supplying legacy reviews with runtime answers and subagent reviews with root authorization evidence.
- Record producer model hashes on new compactions regardless of context mode.
## Testing
Add coverage for checkpoint migration across compaction and resume in both history storage modes, snapshot policy stability, retained-evidence preservation, and authorization revalidation for owning sessions and subagents.
GitOrigin-RevId: ec72b4a51d40729173e24ac1b53b7d516ddaa825
## What changed
- Track the Windows sandbox implementation separately from its legacy setup level.
- Select dedicated proxy listeners for `WindowsMxc` on Windows across sessions, app-server command execution, and the sandbox CLI.
- Rebuild the session proxy when routing changes, retaining its network policy decider.
- Add a sandbox CLI execution path through the MXC sandbox transform when `WindowsMxc` is selected.
## Testing
Extend configuration assertions for the selected sandbox type and the session refresh test to verify dedicated routing and policy decider retention on Windows.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2a22192636c542022ec81a378a16c1bb6867e145
## What changed
- Replace dedicated Guardian endpoints with `/responses`, sending `x-codex-guardian: reviewer` or `x-codex-guardian: classifier` for eligible Codex backend requests over HTTP and WebSocket.
- Add model-scoped thread headers, recheck backend authentication on each request attempt, and reconnect WebSockets when the applicable headers change.
- Retain `features.guardianv2.free_guardian` for configuration compatibility while removing its routing gate; the backend now controls Guardian billing.
## Testing
Update tests for reviewer and classifier headers, model and authentication scoping, HTTP fallback, WebSocket reuse, and parent-response metadata across retries.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1c2b3c458ab77fb40aae4ee6784f6d827c60e76c
## Why
MXC is a sandbox implementation, not a restricted-token sandbox level. Executor requests need to represent that choice separately from `WindowsSandboxLevel`.
## What changed
- Introduce `WindowsSandboxSelection` for executor sandbox contexts and remove `Mxc` from `WindowsSandboxLevel`.
- Preserve the `windowsSandboxLevel` wire field and its serialized values for compatibility.
- Share sandbox selection between executor process launches and filesystem helpers, and use the new selection in capability discovery and skill reads.
- Disable Windows sandbox selection for executor paths that do not use Windows path conventions.
## Testing
Extend coverage for MXC wire serialization, Windows skill-read sandbox checks, and capability discovery with distinct permissions. Exercise remote filesystem write restrictions with both restricted-token and MXC sandboxes, including rejection when native MXC is unavailable.
GitOrigin-RevId: 266211377bcb138a0dc75861e9ff2225fa37a53d
## What changed
- Add `AllowedTools` to the extension API, captured once at thread startup to restrict which tools can be advertised or executed. An empty list disables all tools; an absent value preserves ordinary tool setup. Callers must supply the list again when resuming a thread.
- Filter tool registration and hosted tool specifications before Code Mode and discovery. Match names with their namespaces and require generated tools such as `exec` and `wait` to be explicitly allowed.
- Move Guardian reviewer tool selection into the allowlist while retaining feature and sandbox restrictions, with a fallback for older reviewer sessions.
## Testing
Add coverage for selected, empty, and absent allowlists across tool sources and Code Mode. Add managed-thread tests verifying advertised tools, rejection of excluded calls, and that replacing extension state after startup cannot change the captured allowlist.
GitOrigin-RevId: 33c1722c4241f368963d8385fa0415112e16a72d
## What changed
Introduce `ReviewRequest` in `codex-guardian-reviewer` to own contributor routing, cached approvals, synchronous fallback, and review cancellation. Keep action validation and session-specific preparation in the host.
Track the complete approval operation through parent shutdown, driving cancellation through reporting and reviewer cleanup before releasing it. Preserve fresh-review requirements and validate cached approvals before recording their outcome.
## Testing
Extend coverage for cancellation before routing and during cached approval, parent shutdown cleanup, and required fresh review overriding a cached allow result with matching assessment events and a denial warning.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8dcf26cc3660e91ef94e28e0bee7327ebe34ae6c
## What changed
- Make `SynchronousReview` own assessment events, telemetry, warnings, evidence-recording decisions, and consecutive-denial accounting.
- Keep action preparation, stale-approval validation, evidence storage, and event publication in the host adapter.
- Extract `Session::interrupt_turn_with_warning` to apply extension-requested interruptions to the selected active turn and emit the interrupted thread-idle lifecycle event.
## Testing
Adapt session tests to verify that extension interruptions emit the thread-idle lifecycle event and survive shutdown of the calling runtime.
GitOrigin-RevId: b234ad86206fedc2434f48fc44dc57679443c69f
## What changed
- Use cancellation guards to tie reusable reviewers and temporary forks to their lifetimes, including when a review future is dropped. Replace cancelled reusable reviewers before reuse.
- Share `ReviewerTasks` between the pool and `ThreadManager`, and wait for tracked cleanup during pool shutdown. Remove the separate session shutdown protocol.
- Move denial cleanup from core task handling into Guardian's turn start, stop, and abort hooks. Expose `install_reviewer` to register both thread and turn lifecycle contributors together.
## Testing
Add an integration test that exercises stale denial cleanup at turn start, completion, and interruption, including starting another turn after interruption.
GitOrigin-RevId: 85badb235309c1e1576547d1746f7ee9fc66d545
## What changed
Replace `AttachmentStore::persist` with `upload` and `resolve`. Uploads return inline bytes or a file ID; resolution returns optional file metadata and a download URL only when a minimum URL lifetime is requested. Add image dimensions, digest, size, MIME type, and categorized errors to the API.
Make `InlineAttachmentStore` return the original bytes and report `NotFound` when resolving file IDs. Redact attachment bytes and file URLs in debug output.
Pass the configured image store from the thread manager into sessions and inherit it in delegated sessions. Allow `TestCodexBuilder` to accept a custom image store.
## Testing
Update unit coverage for preserving PNG and JPEG bytes, redacting bytes and URLs in debug output, and rejecting file resolution in the inline store.
GitOrigin-RevId: f313e0048925998d84394c7e5a278e0d39d86a45
## What changed
Represent images in `ContentItem` and `FunctionCallOutputContentItem` with `ImageReference::Inline`, flattened to preserve the existing `image_url` wire format. Update image producers and consumers and regenerate app-server schemas and SDK artifacts.
Preserve the Python SDK's `InputImageContentItem` and `InputImageFunctionCallOutputContentItem` class names during generation.
## Testing
Add a regression test for stable Python image class names and adapt existing image tests to the shared representation.
GitOrigin-RevId: c38a780ac3314c2ac2deb3afc1b93b94b6f93fec
## Why
Guardian reviews must stop when their parent shuts down or their history is reset. Shutdown must also finish reviewer cleanup before closing the parent's persistent history, including when a review is waiting to retry after a rate limit.
## What changed
- Let the Guardian extension own reviewer startup, prewarming, and shutdown through `ThreadManager`, tracking and joining outstanding work during teardown.
- Cancel reviews on history reset or parent shutdown and reject decisions returned after cancellation, including cached extension decisions.
- Keep background prewarm previews from overwriting the active turn's model metadata.
## Testing
Extend regression coverage to verify reviewer cleanup after parent shutdown, prompt shutdown during a 60-second Guardian retry with the network request denied, and preservation of active model review requirements during prewarming.
GitOrigin-RevId: 05efc369b9a1642a10365eac8a09da77f3f6e28c
## What changed
Replace `ReviewerSessionFactory` with a startup callback installed through
`ReviewerPool::new`. Review requests supply shared setup data and reuse context,
while the pool uses its callback to create both reusable and forked reviewers.
Update Guardian session setup, prewarming, and existing test fixtures to use the
new pool API.
GitOrigin-RevId: fa171503afcee8bdbdf6822573bea8ded50ce117
## Why
Resuming a thread initialized its collaboration mode to Default, losing the saved Plan mode and its developer instructions. Reconnecting clients also lacked a server-reported mode to reconcile changes made by another client.
## What changed
- Restore the saved collaboration mode from the latest matching `ThreadSettingsApplied` event, falling back to the last legacy `TurnContext`. Apply the effective model and reasoning effort while retaining the saved mode and developer instructions.
- Include `collaborationMode` in `thread/resume` responses and update the generated schemas and bindings.
- Use the restored mode in the TUI, including the first prompt after resume. Prefer the server's mode when restoring disconnected input, while preserving the local selection for older servers that omit it.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for persisted and legacy collaboration modes, model and reasoning-effort overrides, the resumed Plan mode display and first prompt, and reconnect behavior with and without a server-reported mode.
GitOrigin-RevId: ed064516e7fae1c1668152ab448f510cbcacfe06
## Why
Inline delegates have no entry in the thread registry, so reviewer creation cannot depend on looking up the parent or waiting for its thread-ready notification.
## What changed
- Capture parent identity, authentication, shared agent control, originator, and inherited instructions in `StartThreadOptions` so `ThreadManager` can start a child without a registered parent.
- Route Guardian reviewer creation through this path, remove the standalone fallback and readiness gate, and require a Guardian extension host.
- Install explicit reviewer hosts in unit tests and the Guardian reviewer extension in the integration test harness, using `ExtensionRegistry::to_builder()` to preserve existing contributors.
## Testing
Extend the thread-manager regression test to remove the parent from the registry before starting a child, then verify inherited lineage, originator, session identity, and authentication, and exclusion from the public thread list.
GitOrigin-RevId: 468ded6fdce7520cb39d55c1a884dcfa5aaea2d9
## Why
Persisting user input received during an active turn currently blocks the next model request. Stores that support background persistence can overlap this checkpoint with inference.
## What changed
- Add `PersistContext::SteeredUserInput` and `allows_background_persistence()` so stores may enqueue these checkpoints, with durability and error reporting enforced by later flush or shutdown operations.
- Use the new context for accepted steered user input and apply the same metadata handling as turn-start persistence.
- Keep tool outputs synchronous, including in mixed input batches, and allow stores to retain synchronous persistence for all contexts.
## Testing
Add gated-store integration tests covering background user-input persistence, synchronous stores, and synchronous tool-output checkpoints. Verify that the next request includes the steered input and waits for persistence when required.
GitOrigin-RevId: c60b7b6c9b483245fd3169306bcf0de248ccdf35
## Why
Callers need to tie isolated threads to an explicit lifetime and wait for cleanup even when startup is cancelled or its result is never received.
## What changed
- Add `ThreadManager::start_thread_until` to run an isolated thread until a caller-provided future completes or the thread exits, with a `TaskTracker` covering cleanup and deregistration.
- Retain persistence and session resources across interrupted startup so cleanup can release partially initialized resources or shut down a running session using normal history rules.
- Reject resumed history and startup without explicit session isolation.
## Testing
Add integration tests for cancellation during stalled required MCP initialization, dropping an unconsumed startup result, and owner cancellation that preserves history and parent usability. Also verify that failed duplicate startup leaves the existing thread's writer intact.
GitOrigin-RevId: 47251c1b0c43821ab8f950816c6d341d39cdc823
## Why
Session initialization can be cancelled after a persistence writer is installed but before acquisition returns. Cleanup must wait for acquisition to finish so it can discard the writer.
## What changed
Extend `LiveThreadInitGuard` to own in-flight acquisition and finish it before discarding persistence, including when the guard is dropped. Use the guard for thread creation, resume, and inherited model context initialization.
## Testing
Add a regression test that cancels acquisition after writer installation, verifies cleanup waits for handoff, and confirms the writer is removed afterward.
GitOrigin-RevId: 09041fa5cd675d082a86a4cc8a719c572afe11a8
## Why
Command execution and plugin measurement events lack model and reasoning-effort labels. Attribution needs to reflect the step that invoked the command, even when model settings change before a background process finishes.
## What changed
- Add `model_slug` and `reasoning_effort` to command execution and plugin measurement analytics.
- Capture model context from resolved step settings and carry it through execution, approval, Guardian review, and plugin metrics collection.
- Preserve the first command-start model context when subsequent start notifications arrive.
- Keep the carried context out of serialized protocol items and generated schemas.
## Testing
Extend analytics tests to cover model switches before invocation and during background execution, default reasoning effort, Guardian-denied commands, and repeated start notifications retaining the original model context.
GitOrigin-RevId: af90e1c0d39bab625f2e89786085b61a9b96c0ce
## Why
Running code-mode cells can request Guardian review while the next response is in flight. Clearing the response ID before that response emits `response.created` leaves those reviews without a `parent_response_id`.
## What changed
Keep the latest response ID received in the turn until a later `response.created` replaces it, including across sampling retries.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for reviews before and after a response handoff and for a fresh turn that must not inherit the previous turn's ID. Update retry coverage to expect the last known parent when the retry supplies no response ID.
GitOrigin-RevId: af0a08de09edad59e1a7ade7904a42d616b05679
## Why
Model and reasoning effort updates during a turn can leave request metadata and tool hooks reporting the turn's initial settings. Metadata should describe the step that issued the request or tool call.
## What changed
- Share captured execution metadata across Responses, MCP, and extension tool calls, including model, reasoning effort, and automatic review and Node REPL flags.
- Build Responses tool inventory metadata from the issuing step's finalized tool router. Attach the finalized inventory separately for remote compaction.
- Use captured step settings for pre- and post-tool hooks, and captured review settings for permission-request hooks.
## Testing
Add and extend regression tests for model and effort changes during a turn, MCP metadata, pre-tool hook model attribution, captured review flags, and tool inventory matching the issuing request.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9dee46a8b4839de8b434cdad4ed441cc0bb6ff9b
## What changed
- Use the same text rendering for model instructions in request settings and Responses Lite developer content.
- Make `rewrite_known_segments` emit plain tags for recognized guidance, including collaboration and multi-agent instructions. Check message roles and complete tag boundaries so lookalike user or tool content stays visible, and retain generated compaction summaries.
- Normalize working-directory, workspace-root, and temporary paths in permission guidance while preserving policy differences.
- Separate text clipping from normalization and retain eight lines at each end of long sections, with fingerprints for omitted content. Update affected snapshots.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for instruction rendering across transports, literal and rewritten guidance, malformed and lookalike tags, compaction summary preservation, and permission path normalization that keeps policy changes detectable.
GitOrigin-RevId: 33b052911323c73b0387d650478f9cc3370fd001
## What changed
- Use literal model instruction templates and the standard fallback prompt, ignoring legacy personality variables. Retain catalog decoding compatibility and report `supports_personality` as `false` for generated model presets.
- Stop emitting `<personality_spec>` developer messages and assigning an implicit Pragmatic configuration default.
- Filter Friendly/Pragmatic overrides from TUI requests while preserving explicit `personality = "none"`. With `features.personality` enabled, this opt-out still strips the model's personality section.
- Refresh inherited model instructions for agent roles only when the personality opt-out changes, preserving custom instructions.
## Testing
Update coverage for literal legacy templates, deprecated overrides on turn start and resume, role instruction refresh, and forwarding the explicit opt-out through thread start, resume, and fork requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1391db4e565e010569f0885f80013d1f86b45825
## What changed
- Use one renderer for captured requests, raw request bodies, and input items. Show only appended items when inputs extend the previous request and settings match; start a new snapshot window otherwise and explain the boundary.
- Add optional request settings and tool inventory deltas. Normalize volatile values with stable labels, preserve multiline content, and fingerprint omitted content so changes remain visible.
- Migrate existing context snapshots and expand compaction snapshots to include request history.
## Testing
Add focused tests for window boundaries, cache key changes, tool deltas, shared item rendering, stable normalization, and fingerprints. Assert that the follow-up request after pre-turn compaction includes the working directory override.
GitOrigin-RevId: 6445b014081208ea432b1f3e2ac835c5e4955cb0
## What changed
Remove `thread/rollback`, its request and response types, generated bindings, and the core `Op::ThreadRollback` operation. Requests now follow the generic unknown-method rejection path. Document `thread/revert` as the alternative for paginated threads.
Keep historical `ThreadRolledBack` markers and legacy error deserialization so existing rollouts remain compatible with replay and migration.
## Testing
Adapt retained-context and Guardian history tests to append legacy rollback markers and resume threads, preserving coverage of surviving instructions, answers, and review history.
GitOrigin-RevId: b3da1becdf86b1869275aacb0ffc2817cee5af2e
## What changed
- Accept `disabledPluginIds` in `thread/settings/update` and `turn/start`. A supplied list replaces the saved selection; omission or `null` preserves it, and `[]` clears it.
- Return the selection in thread start, resume, and fork responses and `thread/settings/updated` notifications. Update generated schemas and client types.
- Restore disabled plugin IDs from the history retained at the requested fork boundary, preserving explicit overrides.
The selection persists across resume but does not yet filter plugin capabilities.
## Testing
Add coverage for replacing, preserving, and clearing selections without inference; turn-start notifications; resume; and fork boundaries across legacy and paginated history, with loaded and restarted parents. Add a core regression test for history restoration and explicit clearing.
GitOrigin-RevId: 654a8c2a0527228d422c0dd4919228447e2663db
## What changed
After resolving startup configuration and model defaults, reject `features.token_budget.use_history_notes_extension` when the starting model lacks `supports_experimental_context`. Return an error directing users to disable the option or select a compatible model.
## Testing
Add startup coverage for explicit configuration and model defaults, verifying rejection for unsupported models and successful activation for supported models and standalone token budgets. Update history-notes test fixtures to declare experimental context support.
GitOrigin-RevId: abf1a024efc5acf97cfc858fbb93821363769dc0
## Why
A yielded code mode cell can emit a notification after the session switches models. Its output should retain the originating model's truncation budget instead of using the receiving model's budget.
## What changed
Carry the cell's output token limit, including the serialization allowance, through notification dispatch and attach it as `history_truncation_token_limit` metadata. Allow `inject_if_running` to accept response item envelopes so queued notifications preserve this metadata in history and rollouts.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for delayed notifications across a model switch, verifying per-cell truncation budgets, full notification text in raw events, and persisted rollout metadata. Add a task-completion test that checks notification budgets are preserved alongside queued user input.
GitOrigin-RevId: 28380a039a6d41ea324401fcf1f611d81a279477
## Why
A code-mode cell can outlive its turn. Nested tool calls dispatched during a later turn need the original step's tools and context, while approval handling must still work across that turn boundary.
## What changed
- Retain each cell's originating `StepContext` for nested tool dispatch and cancel queued calls whose context has been released.
- Keep MCP approval metadata available for the lifetime of the running invocation, keyed by server and call ID.
- Apply Guardian denial accounting and interruption to the active turn, including reviews from an earlier cell.
- Carry `turn_id` in legacy MCP begin/end events so history reconstruction and rollout migration assign late completions to their original turn. Preserve the current-turn fallback for older records without it.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for originating tool selection across turns, callback and metadata cleanup, delayed MCP elicitation review, Guardian interruption of the active turn, and late MCP completion attribution with legacy compatibility.

## Why
ChatGPT derives Responses cache affinity from the `session-id` header. Ephemeral forks need to reuse their parent's cache routing while retaining their own session and thread identities.
## What changed
- Inherit the parent session ID as the `prompt_cache_key` for ephemeral root forks.
- Use the prompt cache key for root-agent Responses `session-id` headers, including WebSocket handshakes. Preserve the actual session identity in turn metadata and leave non-root-agent routing unchanged.
- Keep enabled goal tool definitions visible on ephemeral threads, but reject execution with `Goal tools require a persistent thread.` and disable automatic goal continuation without persistent state.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for inherited cache routing with distinct fork identities, matching parent and fork tool definitions, WebSocket session headers, and rejection of ephemeral goal tool execution.

## What changed
- Expose `ThreadInstructionsProvider` through `StartThreadOptions`. Load its snapshot at startup and model-request boundaries, composing it after global instructions and before repository instructions. Empty or blank output clears only the thread contribution.
- Reject thread instructions exceeding 10,000 estimated tokens independently of the repository instruction budget. Allow host-provided instructions without a filesystem source and rename the shared future type to `LoadInstructionsFuture`.
- Retain the provider across warm resumes; require hosts to supply it again for cold resumes and offline forks. Live forks and subagents inherit applied snapshots without inheriting the source thread's provider, including when the parent is unloaded during setup or reload.
- Include thread instructions in guardian reviewer inheritance and reuse decisions.
## Testing
Add coverage for composition and clearing, refresh within an active turn, size rejection before sampling, cancellation-safe refresh, fork and resume behavior, parent eviction, and reviewer reuse invalidation.

## Why
Running root threads retained their startup global instructions, so edits to global `AGENTS.md` files did not take effect during an active session.
## What changed
- Reload global instructions when capturing model-request context, including after tools within the same turn. Apply changes without repeating unchanged instructions or rediscovering repository instructions when the environment and trust level are unchanged.
- Preserve the last successful global instructions on read failures, suppress recurring warnings until recovery, and clear instructions when their source is removed or blank.
- Serialize refreshes and allow cancellation without blocking subsequent requests.
- Give new subagents the parent's applied instruction snapshot and update Guardian reviewer reuse to account for refreshed instructions.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for live edits and removal, read failures and recovery, warning suppression, cancellation, subagent inheritance, and Guardian reviewer reuse. Update resume, fork, and compaction tests to verify refreshed instructions.

## Why
Tool results can be ready before the sampling loop collects them, and code-mode cells can outlive a turn. Separate trace milestones make these timings visible and link nested calls to the turn that dispatches them.
## What changed
- Emit `codex.tool_call_received` and `codex.tool_result_ready` events for direct and code-mode calls, using identifiers and tool names without arguments or output. Record readiness before result encoding or collection, including ordinary errors and aborted responses, but excluding fatal errors.
- Assign nested call IDs at broker receipt and carry them through dispatch. Trace dispatch and interruptions caused by cancellation, cell closure, or abandonment.
- Add code-mode execute and wait handler spans with conversation, turn, call, and cell identifiers and `completed`, `failed`, or `interrupted` outcomes.

## Why
Delegated usage should retain the trigger of the turn that initiated it, including composer input and scheduled automation.
## What changed
Propagate `turn_trigger` through agent spawning and follow-up messages in both multi-agent tool implementations. Apply the supplied trigger when pending mailbox work starts a new turn.
## Testing
Extend tests to verify trigger propagation to spawned and nested agents, updated triggers on reused agents and peer follow-ups, and preservation of the active turn's trigger when steering.
GitOrigin-RevId: e8fea208587c633fec7cb3f1c0815ff91d1a44e5
## Why
Turn completion metrics used session-level telemetry, which could label usage with the wrong model after a model switch. A turn can also include compaction and responses from different models, so a single token total cannot attribute usage correctly.
## What changed
- Accumulate token usage by model using each response's resolved step settings, and emit one histogram sample per model and token type per turn.
- Preserve zero-valued samples when no usage is reported, without adding a sample for an unused selected model when only compaction ran.
- Use turn telemetry for tool-call, memory, network-proxy, and running-process metrics.
## Testing
Add regression tests for model switches, step-level model changes, compaction followed by a response or an aborted turn, and turns without responses. Verify repeated requests aggregate into one sample per model and earlier session usage is excluded.

## What changed
- Apply `disabled_plugin_ids` to plugin skills, recommendations, hooks, and MCP servers without modifying shared plugin state.
- Activate selection changes when the next task starts, keeping pending settings from changing the active runtime.
- Hide app tools contributed only by disabled plugins from model tool catalogs and search. Preserve connectors shared with enabled plugins and existing direct Apps RPC behavior.
- Include plugin identity in MCP approval keys and use that identity when persisting plugin tool approvals.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for disabling and re-enabling plugin skills and tools, deferred activation of settings, shared connector ownership, selected plugin servers, executor hooks, and plugin-specific approval keys and persistence.

## Why
An enabled shared analytics client could override a thread's explicit opt-out.
Delegated threads also emitted initialization events through the parent's client,
bypassing the child's analytics setting.
## What changed
- Use a disabled analytics client when `config.analytics_enabled` is `Some(false)`,
without disabling analytics for sibling threads or overriding a disabled host client.
- Emit delegated thread initialization events through the child's analytics client.
- Expose the effective analytics state through `CodexThread::analytics_enabled()`.
## Testing
Add regression tests for explicit and unset thread settings with enabled, disabled,
and absent shared clients, plus delegated child opt-outs with an enabled parent.
Update compaction and rollout-budget rollback tests to wait for thread idle after
turn completion and fail immediately on rollback errors.
GitOrigin-RevId: 547852909af1a6822b95c0bcd2336b0d6bc7aad1
## What changed
Add an optional `analytics_enabled` boolean to `x-codex-turn-metadata`, sourced from the session's selected analytics client. It reports collection state independently of event eligibility or delivery and is omitted without initialized session analytics context.
Reserve `analytics_enabled` so configured or client-supplied metadata cannot override it. Continue accepting existing configurations containing this key while filtering their values from request metadata.
## Testing
Add coverage for the selected analytics client's state taking precedence over turn configuration, reserved-key filtering and compatibility, enabled state in HTTP headers and body metadata, and disabled state in WebSocket prewarm and turn requests.
