## What changed
Add the default-off `features.prefer_mxc` flag to select MXC for local Windows execution when native support is available and effective network settings do not explicitly forbid local binding. Otherwise, retain the configured backend and legacy setup behavior.
Resolve the preference during config loading and use the effective local backend for execution, network proxy setup, sandbox diagnostics, and `windowsSandbox/readiness`. Preserve the configured backend for remote executors and `config/read`. Explicit `windows.sandbox = "mxc"` remains strict, and command failures do not trigger backend fallback.
## Testing
Add coverage for preference resolution, startup readiness without rewriting configuration, local and remote backend selection across environment updates and child threads, and workspace-write permission context in an agent turn.
GitOrigin-RevId: b51178f0371d38ebb58e41af54a068fca67fa316
## What changed
Render unordered bullets as `•` and task markers as `☐` or `☑`, preserving ordered numbering and continuation indentation in streaming and completed Markdown. Add `tui.rendering.lists`, enabled by default; setting it to `false` retains hyphen bullets and textual task markers.
## Testing
Add snapshot coverage for nested, ordered, quoted, and wrapped task lists, plus code and escaped markers. Add character-by-character streaming tests that compare incremental and emitted output with full rendering, with list rendering enabled and disabled.

## What changed
Mark `guardianv2.thread_context` as stable and enable it by default for synchronous and asynchronous Guardian reviews. Keep it independent of the Guardian v2 `enabled` toggle and preserve explicit configuration and profile overrides. Update the configuration schema documentation to match.
## Testing
Update coverage for default configuration and sender user messages, review prompt snapshots, history retention across compaction, and checkpoint provenance. Assert that later user input invalidates an in-flight review's authorization. Keep legacy transcript budgeting coverage by explicitly disabling thread context in that test.
GitOrigin-RevId: 19afd34d7bfc0ee36bbf878089c68b732a21bc6a
## What changed
Default `tui.fullscreen_transcript` to `true`, including when the `[tui]`
section is absent, and apply the same default to the first frame. Update the
configuration schema to match. Alternate-screen restrictions still take
precedence, and `tui.fullscreen_transcript=false` restores terminal scrollback.
## Testing
Update configuration and startup tests for the new default, including an empty
`[tui]` section and `--no-alt-screen`. Adjust PTY tests to cover default fullscreen
entry and explicit opt-out to terminal scrollback.
GitOrigin-RevId: e460dcd058d52c50da2abc5113bbb678e845d5fc
## What changed
- Add `auto_review.extra_policy` and the managed `guardian_extra_policy` requirement to supply policy text alongside the resolved tenant policy. Nonblank managed values take precedence; blank values are ignored.
- Render the additional text through `{{ extra_policy }}` in Guardian reviewer templates and append it to the tenant policy for Guardian v2 classification before truncation.
- Preserve placeholder-like text inside supplied policies literally.
## Testing
Add coverage for configuration precedence, blank values, template substitution, and classifier prompts, plus a scenario verifying that managed tenant and extra policies reach the Guardian reviewer together.
GitOrigin-RevId: 180d8d716c63fe96a92ec5bfbd22db4ddccd4f1f
## What changed
- Replace the built-in orchestrator skill provider with a host-supplied cloud provider, using `cloud` authority and `c` root aliases in skill tools and prompts.
- Add `cloud.skills.enabled`, defaulting to true but requiring a supplied provider. Keep `orchestrator.skills` accepted as a legacy no-op setting, and remove the app server's automatic orchestrator provider registration.
- Discover cloud skills once per turn during cancellable startup. Serve catalog snapshots to prompts and tools without triggering discovery or retries.
- Scope cached catalogs and resources to authentication state. Preserve them on refresh failures within the same scope, invalidate them when that scope changes, and reject late discovery or read results from replaced cache generations.
- Reuse executor discovery catalogs only when successful discovery inputs and bundled-skill settings match.
## Testing
Add coverage for per-turn refresh, skill removal, same-account failures and reconnects, authentication changes, and stale in-flight results. Update configuration and tool tests for cloud authority, provider gating, and resource reads without an executor.
GitOrigin-RevId: c57e38ec7dcc880c0d4c8a2995adfd3e28301079
## What changed
- Register the existing message-board tools with the app server through a lifecycle extension, gated on `agent_message_board`, multi-agent v2, and non-ephemeral sessions. The new feature flag is disabled by default.
- Bind tools to each agent's identity and share the SQLite-backed board across the agent tree and runtime resumes.
- Use the runtime clock for posts and deliver ID-only notifications to running agents, with tools to retrieve post contents. Skip inactive recipients without starting them or queuing notices.
- Emit a warning and leave board tools unavailable if initialization fails.
## Testing
Add runtime scenarios and a context snapshot covering feature gating without creating storage, posting and searching, active-only notifications, sharing with child agents, persistence across resume, and clock failure without channel creation.
GitOrigin-RevId: a81bd85cd372b0d122ba375ed1a1bfd3ba3a3b7c
## What changed
Add `tui.rendering.mermaid`, `tui.rendering.math`, and `tui.rendering.tables`, all enabled by default and independent of animation settings. Disable individual renderers to display their source instead of diagrams, Unicode math, or formatted tables.
Apply preferences to streaming and completed responses, startup previews, and session changes. When table rendering is disabled, preserve pipe syntax, cell markup, and enclosing Markdown fences. Keep HTML clipboard formatting independent of terminal rendering preferences.
## Testing
Add coverage for individual defaults, source preservation, nested table fences, session settings, and clipboard behavior. Verify incremental rendering and emitted output match completed rendering across all eight toggle combinations.
GitOrigin-RevId: 48d765eac20a82881eed94f186bf5b025ff4f0db
## What changed
Use `tui.fullscreen_transcript` to opt into the fullscreen transcript, including scrolling, selection, and search. It defaults to `false`; `--no-alt-screen` and `tui.alternate_screen = "never"` still take precedence.
The new preference controls both the first frame and application startup. Boolean CLI overrides for it are allowed during daemon startup. The old `features.transcript_v2` flag is deprecated and ignored, with a notice directing users to the new setting; it does not migrate into or override the preference.
## Testing
Add coverage for default terminal scrollback, fullscreen persistence through startup, alternate-screen restrictions, daemon override validation, and independence from the deprecated flag. Update existing history and activity tests to use the new preference.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4117bf1ee548fa8d101a594f9506673d87c74c15
## What changed
Replace `tui.whimsy` with `[tui.effects]` preferences for `starfield`, `shimmer`, `welcome`, `effort`, `progress`, and `title`. Each defaults to `true` and remains subordinate to the `tui.animations` master switch.
Wire the preferences into composer effects, welcome artwork, status and loading text, progress indicators, and terminal-title animations. For example, disable shimmering text while keeping progress animations:
```toml
[tui.effects]
shimmer = false
```
Keep retired `tui.whimsy` entries loadable but ignore their value. Update the configuration schema to expose the new preferences.
## Testing
Add and extend coverage for independent shimmer and progress effects, master-switch precedence, welcome and starfield controls, terminal-title blinking, and strict configuration loading with the retired setting.
GitOrigin-RevId: 28b37ba52872133b8954543cabe9ff424147f1c5
## What changed
- Add incremental, case-insensitive literal search across transcript details, loading older history as needed. Use `F3` to start Find, or `/` in the transcript pager, and navigate matches in either direction. Closing Find restores the previous presentation and reading position.
- Add clickable activity detail controls and `F4` keyboard focus for inspecting individual activity groups in the owned transcript. Preserve expansion state as live activity becomes history.
- Expose configurable `global.find_transcript`, `global.focus_activity`, and `pager.find` bindings under `tui.keymap`. Let new defaults yield to existing custom bindings and show available completions for pending chords.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for Unicode matching, bounded scanning, paginated and changing history, selection during search, composer input isolation, activity controls, and custom shortcut conflicts.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5bcbcdfbca7c5c296c635ec9b079ccd7a908e336
## Why
Server version notices previously required both versions to be stable releases, leaving prerelease and local clients without notices about differing background services.
## What changed
- Use semantic version parsing to distinguish older servers from version mismatches.
- Compare stable clients against older releases, including prereleases. Compare prerelease clients by precedence within the same release line and report other release lines as different.
- Report differing versions for local clients (`0.0.0` or versions with build metadata). Ignore malformed versions.
- Show the corresponding `older than` or `different from` notice and `<` or `≠` overview indicator, while preserving `/daemon` guidance and the `show_server_version_notice` setting.
## Testing
Add version-policy tests and notice snapshots covering prerelease ordering, local builds, mismatches, and malformed versions. Add daemon tests for notice suppression and manual update guidance without scheduling an update.
GitOrigin-RevId: 29df4713a7dbcbddcf30d56995a8496e7e8d0c6a
## Why
Login and enterprise configuration bootstrap can fail when their endpoints are reachable only through the system proxy, before cloud configuration can enable `respect_system_proxy`.
## What changed
- Enable `features.system_proxy_fallback` by default, honor managed feature requirements, and prevent project configuration from changing it.
- Retry account discovery and cloud configuration GETs through the system proxy after connection failures or timeouts, bounding the initial request and body read to five seconds.
- Retry OAuth authorization-code exchange only on connection failures before any redirect, with a ten-second connection timeout. Reuse the successful client for the subsequent API-key exchange to avoid changing routes.
- Increase workspace discovery and cloud configuration timeouts to 15 and 20 seconds, respectively, to accommodate fallback.
## Testing
Add coverage for proxy-only browser login through the first completed turn, including cloud configuration enabling `respect_system_proxy` without a restart. Cover stalled GET bodies, preserved request headers, disabled fallback, managed requirements, and project configuration restrictions. Verify that OAuth HTTP errors, redirects followed by connection failures, and failures after sending the POST do not trigger proxy retries, while successful redirects remain supported.
GitOrigin-RevId: 854eeeac186bb4865218ce645019c1e4bff85425
## Why
Providers need to serve Codex model metadata independently of their inference endpoint. A custom inference `base_url` alone should not opt API-key sessions into remote catalog discovery.
## What changed
- Add `model_catalog_url` to provider configuration and thread-config serialization. Fetch the full catalog URL with provider authentication, headers, query parameters, and `client_version`, while preserving inference routing.
- Require an explicit catalog URL for API-key discovery with a custom base URL. Keep default OpenAI discovery on the Codex backend, and apply `api_key_model_discovery` gating to provider API keys and cached catalogs.
- Include the catalog URL in cache identity so different catalogs do not share cached metadata.
- Limit explicitly configured catalog responses to 1 MiB, reject redirects, and suppress URL and response diagnostics that could expose credentials.
## Testing
Add coverage for catalog configuration round-trips, query encoding, authentication and header reuse, cache identity and discovery gating, oversized responses, and redirect rejection without credential forwarding. Add an integration test verifying that catalog model metadata and instructions reach conversation requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7f6ac5eec257278685e1867a6bcebae6514a365a
## What changed
- Remove the private-desktop opt-out from elevated and unelevated Windows sandbox launches.
- Remove `windows.sandbox_private_desktop` and its managed requirement and API fields. Warn users to remove the obsolete setting.
- Require a private desktop name when launching through the Windows sandbox wrapper and command runner.
## Testing
Add coverage for the obsolete-setting migration warning and update wrapper tests to verify a live private desktop is passed and a missing desktop name is rejected.
GitOrigin-RevId: c7135f8d211aac8d812180691c2c1e433d77cde4
## What changed
Add `model_post_turn_compact_threshold_percent` to trigger compaction after a final response when context usage reaches the configured percentage of the usable window or an existing auto-compaction limit. Accept values from `0` to `100`; omitted or zero disables the feature.
Skip post-turn compaction when input is pending, the turn is cancelled, or token-budget mode is enabled. Disable it for approval reviewers to avoid delaying approval completion, and record a distinct `PostTurn` analytics phase.
Buffer local post-turn summaries until compaction succeeds and require a nonempty assistant summary before replacing history. Log compaction failures without failing the completed turn, while still propagating interruptions and turn aborts.
GitOrigin-RevId: b616994175829bd83b5d7974f95dabb042a39a89
## Why
MXC's native host-loopback access is bidirectional, so it cannot enforce `allow_local_binding = false`. Treating an omitted setting as `false` prevents managed networking from working with the default configuration.
## What changed
- Preserve an omitted `allow_local_binding` until the executor's sandbox policy is known. Default to `true` for Windows MXC and `false` elsewhere, including remote execution.
- Reject an effective `false` for MXC managed networking after applying policy restrictions, without enabling disabled networking.
- Use the executor's resolved value for remote network approval decisions while preserving explicit controller restrictions.
- Document that local binding permits local servers and direct host-loopback connections and skips additional private-network destination checks; proxy domain rules still apply.
## Testing
Add coverage for per-executor defaults, explicit values, MXC rejection of `false`, and remote network review cleanup with the resolved policy.
GitOrigin-RevId: 0fa7c1eaec68bebada2b8f7af45688315eea70a9
Preserve known error classifications, including BioPolicy, while falling back to Other for unknown values so saved sessions can still be read.
Add optional gateway OAuth settings to model provider configuration.

GitOrigin-RevId: 64bcf45ca042efca7645c798db3746375426b0fe
## Why
Code-mode responses show host duration without exposing time spent outside the host, including app-server waiting.
## What changed
- Add `features.code_mode.experimental_show_cell_overhead`, disabled by default, to show handler duration, host duration, and their difference in `exec` and `wait` response headers.
- Reuse the completed handler measurement from tool-call logging, excluding dispatch waiting, and capture it even when logging is disabled.
- Preserve the existing timing format when the option is disabled or host timing is unavailable, and preserve boolean feature toggles when merging nested code-mode configuration.
## Testing
Add coverage for timing headers, zero and missing host measurements, negative rounding differences, content preservation, and configuration merging. Extend app-server tests across gRPC and stdio to verify timing includes post-host elicitation waiting, and add a response snapshot for successful execution and a failed wait.
GitOrigin-RevId: 929b84784d9c6077cf2b5927a90bd2d5f3870078
## What changed
- Accept `windows.sandbox = "mxc"` and preserve the selected backend through environment configuration, command execution, patch writes, and sandbox metadata.
- Treat MXC as enabled in the TUI and report Windows sandbox readiness as `ready`, avoiding legacy setup prompts.
- Keep `allowed_sandbox_implementations` scoped to the legacy elevated and unelevated backends without restricting MXC.
- Default `windows.sandbox_private_desktop` to `false` for MXC while retaining `true` for legacy sandboxes.
## Testing
Add coverage for MXC configuration precedence, legacy requirement handling, sandbox selection, and TUI state. Add a Wine integration test that verifies command and patch routing fails when native MXC is unavailable and reports `windows_mxc` in turn metadata.
GitOrigin-RevId: e2162447d0750f60753864c92a20e02a7f297bca
## What changed
- Add `features.daemon_auto_start`, disabled by default and available through `/experimental`, to start the shared local server for eligible new, resumed, and forked sessions. Changes take effect on the next launch, and disabling the feature persists an explicit `false`.
- Require successful daemon startup and connection when auto-start applies. On failure, show guidance to rerun the same command with `--no-daemon` instead of silently falling back to an embedded server.
- Preserve embedded mode for excluded launches, including Bedrock sign-in, and carry exclusion warnings through resume and fork pickers. Honor `--no-daemon` without an exclusion warning.
- Update `/import` guidance to recommend restarting with `codex --no-daemon`.
## Testing
Add CLI and TUI coverage for automatic daemon attachment, startup and connection failures, `--no-daemon`, picker warning persistence, and Bedrock onboarding with and without a running daemon. Add snapshots and configuration-write assertions for the experimental toggle.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2e8eb163bc7ddd268a86c7546c05a85356c1e9ee
## What changed
- Bind `F8` to start or stop a voice conversation through the existing voice toggle handler, preserving its start guards and the composer draft.
- Expose `tui.keymap.chat.toggle_voice` in the configuration schema and keymap picker, with support for remapping, unbinding, and key chords.
- Let the default yield to existing `F8` bindings and overlapping chord prefixes, and validate explicit bindings against shortcut conflicts and reserved text input.
- Handle the shortcut only on key presses when no modal or popup is active.
## Testing
Add tests for default and custom bindings, conflicts, chord dispatch, live remapping and unbinding, draft preservation, start guards, and popup and key-event handling. Add a snapshot for the voice shortcut editor.
GitOrigin-RevId: e5e373e8eefa89bec4d5cbdca801616e312134b5
## What changed
- Probe for screen readers at startup on macOS, Windows, and Linux, with a 450 ms timeout. Include Windows Narrator detection in the current login session.
- Save `tui.animations = false` when a screen reader is detected and no user animation preference is configured. Preserve explicit preferences and config comments, and retain a session default if saving fails.
- Record the attempt in `tui.screen_reader_detection_done`; either boolean value skips future detection. Allow explicit animation preferences to override the screen-reader default on reload.
## Testing
Add tests for one-time detection, timeouts, preference preservation, temporary CLI overrides, persistence failures, and preference reloads. Verify rendering without animation frame requests and interactive startup that records detection without replacing an explicit preference.
GitOrigin-RevId: f61c19dfd053f97e8cfed68dce7389fa7601120d
## Why
Server-level tool exposure settings apply to every connector on the apps server. Individual connectors need a way to opt out of deferred discovery without changing exposure for other apps.
## What changed
Add `apps.<connector_id>.omit_tools_from` with support for `code_mode`, `deferred`, and `direct`. Combine connector omissions with server omissions so app settings preserve server restrictions.
For example, `omit_tools_from = ["deferred"]` makes a connector's tools available without tool search, through direct calls or Code Mode as permitted by the active tool mode and remaining restrictions.
Expose the setting in the app-server protocol, JSON schemas, and generated TypeScript and Python types.
## Testing
Add integration coverage for connector-specific exposure and MCP dispatch across tool modes, server restrictions, and direct-only namespaces. Extend config tests to cover populated, absent, and empty omission lists, and add a Code Mode request-history snapshot.
GitOrigin-RevId: cc99ab290c8a878d06d8d7ccf2d1dbd7c46bfa8a
## 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
## 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
## What changed
- Add consumer plan usage history behind `analytics_plan_history`, disabled by default, fetching seven days of five-hour and weekly allowance periods.
- Show period usage percentages with expandable breakdowns by feature, model, surface, or turn start, plus snapshot freshness and incomplete coverage indicators.
- Preserve unknown usage separately from zero and handle an unavailable history endpoint without blocking other analytics reports.
## Testing
Add backend and TUI tests for unavailable endpoints, response validation, feature and account gating, account changes during requests, period navigation, snapshot resets, and narrow and wide layouts.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7bea87a3407730b18040d7dda7e7dd0afe67fb2e
## 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
## What changed
Add `auto_review.experimental_policy_template` to override the Guardian prompt template in `config.toml`. Trim the configured value and ignore it when empty. Prefer the override over the model catalog template, retaining the bundled template as the final fallback.
The template's `{{ tenant_policy_config }}` placeholder is replaced with the resolved Guardian policy.
## Testing
Extend tests to cover template deserialization, trimming, precedence over the catalog template, and rendered policy text in Guardian inference requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 85b4a8fc193a42735354894203ccbd1f738a3b58
## What changed
- Add a configurable `new_worktree` action, bound to `w`, for local sessions with worktree support enabled.
- Create the worktree from the cached project default branch, preferring remote `HEAD` and falling back to conventional `main` or `master` refs without fetching. Preserve the selected subdirectory and source checkout edits.
- Start and bind a blank session in the new worktree, preserving the selected approval reviewer without sending an initial turn.
- Show creation progress, pause conflicting actions, clean up unclaimed clean worktrees, and report retained checkout paths when session startup fails. Clear pending creation state on reconnect.
## Testing
Add coverage for default-branch selection, source checkout preservation, session ownership and approval settings, cleanup, startup failures, reconnect state, and busy-state rendering. Extend Git environment isolation coverage and test unrelated non-UTF-8 refs.
GitOrigin-RevId: 771ddc12d04dbf0d12e77e9c96c8386cf31e67c5
## What changed
- Replace the inline task composer with a session list: `n` opens a blank session in the selected checkout without sending an initial turn or interrupting running agents.
- Use single-letter action shortcuts and `Enter` to open a session. `Esc` cancels search or rename without closing the list; `Ctrl+C` quits from the list.
- Load destination settings for new sessions while carrying over explicit permission choices. Retain blank sessions and their drafts across navigation until the first turn.
## Testing
Update tests and snapshots for command center navigation, shortcuts, blank draft restoration, destination defaults, permission carryover, and directory trust.
GitOrigin-RevId: bddd04fdbe6ac2f5b7bd70293fd04f673b97ba02
## What changed
Add the disabled-by-default `send_message_to_user_async` feature flag so root agents can use the tool without model catalog support. Preserve catalog-based opt-in and keep the tool unavailable to subagents. Register the flag as under development and expose it in the configuration schema.
## Testing
Extend integration tests to cover feature and catalog opt-ins, deduplication when both are enabled, subagent exclusion, and the retired `send_async_message` flag. Check that either opt-in allows messages to be emitted without ending the turn.
GitOrigin-RevId: 3f53181ab074b0432c795550de73a9b1da7caf15
## Why
Enterprise MCP authorization must remain controlled by host, user, or managed configuration. Project settings and plugin declarations must not redirect enterprise credentials or downgrade the selected authentication mode.
## What changed
- Add `auth = "ema_auth"`, shared `mcp_enterprise_managed_auth` IdP configuration, and per-plugin enterprise registration settings.
- Require enterprise registrations to come from one non-project configuration layer, preserve managed IdP precedence, and reject project overrides that change authorization or re-enable disabled enterprise servers.
- Add the disabled-by-default `use_xaa` feature flag and require non-project opt-in or a managed requirement.
- Reject plugin declarations that select `ema_auth`. Keep EMA connections unsupported and block ordinary MCP OAuth login and credential fallback for this mode.
- Extend the configuration schema and serialization for the new settings.
## Testing
Add coverage for IdP precedence, incomplete registrations, alternate credential validation, project-only opt-in, plugin self-declaration rejection, configuration round-tripping, and trusted-project attempts to downgrade enterprise auth to OAuth or ChatGPT auth.
GitOrigin-RevId: f193bdfda74208c98e496a23bf2916955b131a1c
## What changed
- Add `Ctrl+E` to archive the selected task and its child agents, and `Delete` to permanently delete their history. Both actions require confirmation, with Cancel selected by default.
- Expose `agents.archive` and `agents.delete` in keymap configuration and the shortcut picker. Default bindings yield to existing custom bindings and chords.
- Show progress while requests run, keeping rendering responsive and blocking task switching. Refresh overview state afterward and keep the dashboard open when the current task is removed.
- Report failures and preserve the current attachment and draft when a rejected operation leaves the task loaded.
## Testing
Add coverage for confirmation and cancellation, active and background task removal, child-agent attachments, stale refresh invalidation, failure recovery, and draft preservation. Add progress input-isolation tests, shortcut conflict tests, and snapshots for confirmation, errors, progress, and keymap rendering.
GitOrigin-RevId: b327bb8834699d0058f9ffb903ace525ae270500
## What changed
- Add `Ctrl+W` to hide the selected task without stopping it. Hidden tasks stay hidden through activity and metadata refreshes until explicitly resumed or the TUI restarts.
- Expose `agents.hide` in keymap configuration and the shortcut picker, and let the default binding yield to existing custom shortcuts.
- Wrap overview footer hints while keeping shortcuts and their labels together when they fit.
## Testing
Add coverage for hiding filtered tasks across statuses, visibility through activity and refreshes, explicit resume, existing keybinding compatibility, and custom chord footer rendering at narrow widths.
GitOrigin-RevId: 980726e1095b8d5bad8901be919decdde8c0f925
## What changed
Add the default-off `api_key_model_discovery` feature and expose it through app-server experimental feature enablement, respecting user configuration overrides.
When enabled, fetch OpenAI API-key model metadata from the Codex backend, honoring explicit provider base URLs. Treat remote catalogs containing visible models as authoritative. When disabled at startup, skip discovery requests and cached catalogs and retain bundled models.
## Testing
Add coverage for feature enablement and user overrides, cached catalogs across sessions, provider routing, and API-key `model/list` results. Extend coverage for remote instructions and auth-specific cache isolation.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4b189c37c615a7f808cb6ff5f0858a9a55f36ebc
## Why
Hosted Codex Apps shared the `mcp_2026_07_28` protocol setting with other MCP servers, preventing independent protocol selection.
## What changed
- Add `features.codex_apps_mcp_2026_07_28`, disabled by default, for the host-owned HTTP `codex_apps` server. Enabling it attempts 2026-07-28 discovery with Legacy fallback.
- Keep other servers, including third-party registrations with Apps-like names or URLs and local stdio servers, governed by `mcp_2026_07_28`.
- Support the new flag through `experimentalFeature/enablement/set` and refresh protocol settings in existing sessions. Track protocol mode per server when deciding whether to reuse connections.
## Testing
Add coverage for independent feature and protocol selection, hosted event-stream protocol selection, standalone Legacy defaults and discovery fallback, and runtime enablement refreshing an existing app-server thread.
GitOrigin-RevId: 640e8e251f0c45e5f4829cc2b73c3082cf42f715
## Why
Credential brokerage must retain trusted destination hints even when shell environment policy hides them from child processes. Snapshot replay also needs to preserve credential aliases when tokens are short or captured dummy values change.
## What changed
- Add `features.network_proxy.credentials` and preserve provider settings when toggling the proxy. Prevent project configuration from overriding providers or their credential and destination environment variables.
- Use provider metadata throughout snapshot capture and replay, and pass hidden destination context to the broker without exposing it in the child environment.
- Rewrite aliases containing short credentials or previously captured dummies, respecting environment filters and explicit overrides.
- Preserve case-distinct `shell_environment_policy.set` keys so Windows credential ambiguity checks survive configuration merging and permission profile changes.
- Restore independent MITM settings when credential brokerage is disabled.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for custom providers, hidden destination hints, Bash and Zsh alias replay, configuration edits and merging, Windows ambiguity handling, and credential protection during approved execution.

## What changed
Support `model_providers.amazon-bedrock.aws.credential_export` with `command`, `args`, and `timeout_ms` to supply SigV4 signing credentials from a command's JSON output. Accept both flat credential-process output and nested STS `Credentials` objects.
Cache credentials in memory, refresh before expiration, and share exports across sessions with matching AWS configuration. On recoverable authentication failures, run the optional `aws.auth_refresh` command before exporting fresh credentials, coalescing concurrent recovery attempts.
Bound command execution time and output size, and keep credential values out of errors. Reject combining `aws.credential_export` with `aws.profile`. Bedrock setup and login reject changes while an exporter is configured, preserving configuration and saved credentials.
## Testing
Add coverage for output formats, expiration, credential precedence, caching, concurrent recovery, command failures, and secret redaction. Integration tests verify request signing with rotated credentials, bounded recovery attempts, and setup/login rejection across configuration layers.

## Why
Allow v2 memories to build in the background while the selected memory version continues supplying context, and let clients check whether v2 has enough consolidated data and a valid summary to use.
## What changed
- Add `memories.dual_write`, disabled by default, to run v1 and v2 extraction and consolidation concurrently with separate stores and directories.
- Add the experimental `memory/status` endpoint, returning `v2ConsolidatedThreads` and `v2Ready`. Readiness requires a valid v2 summary and a consolidation thread count meeting `minConsolidatedThreads` (default 20, supported range 1–4096).
- Persist the largest thread count from a successful consolidation across pruning and clear it on memory reset.
- Share v2 summary validation between consolidation and status reporting, and tag memory metrics with `memory_version`.
## Testing
Add tests for independent dual-write outputs, preserving existing notes without importing them into v2, and readiness behavior across consolidation ownership checks, missing summaries, configurable thresholds, thread deletion, and memory reset.

## What changed
- Add `memories.version` with `v1` as the default and `v2` as an opt-in selection.
- Route memory generation, summaries, and retrieval tools through the selected version. Store `v2` artifacts in `memories_v2` and lazily create a separate SQLite database, keeping jobs and outputs isolated while sharing the thread catalog.
- Preserve the initial memory version across extension config updates so summaries and retrieval tools use the same namespace.
- Clear both versions on memory reset and remove thread memory from both stores on thread deletion. Recognize both artifact roots in shell usage telemetry.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for version defaults and validation, independent job claims and outputs, deletion and reset across versions, and shell usage classification for both memory roots.

## What changed
Add `tui.show_server_version_notice`, enabled by default. Set it to `false` to suppress informational notices about older stable app servers at startup, on reconnect, and in the agents overview. Compatibility errors and version status remain unaffected.
Refresh the overview notice when local settings change, clearing pending notices when the setting is disabled.
## Testing
Add coverage for disabling and re-enabling overview notices, clearing pending notice state, and preserving remote version status. Extend reconnect and local-settings tests to cover the new setting.

## What changed
Add the disabled-by-default `reasoning_effort_override` feature for OpenAI models with `use_responses_lite` enabled. Append a trusted `configuration_update` after accepted input when no effort is established in surviving history or the resolved effort changes. Preserve the existing history prefix and continue sending the request-level reasoning effort.
Share effort normalization through `ModelInfo::resolve_reasoning_effort` so requests and history updates resolve `ultra` consistently and translate `persistent` to `disabled`. Exclude other custom effort values from history updates, and compare only against harness-authored configuration items.
## Testing
Add integration coverage for effort transitions, deduplication, history prefix and cache-key preservation, alias normalization, and feature/provider/model gating. Add unit coverage for model-specific `ultra` resolution, fallbacks, and `persistent` translation.

## What changed
Replace `features.guardian_thread_context` with `features.guardianv2.thread_context` and update the configuration schema. The setting controls thread-owned context for synchronous and asynchronous Guardian, defaults to `false`, and remains independent of `features.guardianv2.enabled`.
## Testing
Update configuration tests to cover the nested setting, profile overrides, and enabling thread context while Guardian v2 is disabled. Migrate Guardian approval, history, and async scorer tests to the new configuration key.

## What changed
- Introduce an async-question editor component with per-question drafts, navigation, replay deduplication, and submit or queue handling using the shared composer.
- Add bounded `AnsweredQuestion` framing that truncates question text at a UTF-8 boundary and flattens line breaks before prepending it to an answer.
- Add `prompt_stack_back` and `skip_question` keybinding actions and the `tui.question_esc_back` setting. Normalize `Ctrl+]` and `Ctrl+5` for key matching and conflict detection, and let default question shortcuts yield to explicit bindings.
- Flush buffered typing in both the main composer and the covering view so background input cannot keep the draw loop waiting.
The async-question component is not yet connected to the TUI event flow.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for bounded Unicode question framing, question-shortcut conflicts, and paste-buffer flushing in background and covering editors.

## What changed
- Render sparse, fading stars across the composer when using an Astra model in a true-color terminal.
- Preserve composer content, cursor state, effort effects, and terminal colors, and pause the animation while popups are open.
- Add the default-on `tui.whimsy` setting so decorative effects can be disabled independently. Sparkles also respect `tui.animations`.
## Testing
- Cover model and setting eligibility, terminal color handling, protected composer cells, popup behavior, effort effects, and layout stability.

## Why
Automatic title generation used a provisional thread name and only applied the
generated result while its thread remained active. Switching threads could
therefore leave the originating thread without its generated name.
## What changed
- Track title-generation requests by thread so results are persisted for the
originating thread, while preserving any name set before generation finishes.
- Show a `renaming...` spinner instead of a provisional name, including across
thread switches and failure paths.
- Add `thread-name` items to the status line and terminal title, and include the
generated thread name in both default layouts.
## Testing
- Cover automatic naming, manual-name precedence, thread switching, failed
requests, deduplication, and status-surface rendering and animation.
GitOrigin-RevId: a03ae4849bedec9f62f256fadad72c1685ce46e0
## What changed
- Add the stable, default-on `unified_exec_tty` feature.
- When disabled, omit `tty` from the `exec_command` tool schema and reject calls that explicitly request a TTY.
- Continue to support commands that omit `tty` or set it to `false`.
## Testing
- Add unified exec coverage for the disabled tool schema, explicit TTY rejection, and non-TTY command execution.
GitOrigin-RevId: c5934fe9db1423170b891c7ecd0188792cd03f42
## What changed
- Add the macOS-only `allow_symlinked_codex_home` user setting. When enabled in the execution host's `$CODEX_HOME/config.toml`, writable roots at or beneath that home may traverse symlinks.
- Keep the exception disabled by default and prevent project config, command-line overrides, and ignored user config from enabling it. Other writable roots remain subject to symlink checks.
- Propagate the resolved setting through local, interactive, and exec-server sandbox paths, including `CODEX_HOME` aliases.
- Explain the opt-out in symlink rejection errors, including that it trusts targets outside `CODEX_HOME` and targets that change between commands.
## Testing
- Add macOS coverage for shell commands, patches, filesystem helpers, process execution, and interactive startup with enabled, disabled, aliased, and out-of-scope homes.
GitOrigin-RevId: 99fcdf611200c9e1b7713cf06f7fdea5bfa7f089
## What changed
- Add the experimental `worktrees` feature and a shared `--worktree` flag for new and forked `codex exec` sessions.
- Create each enabled session in a managed Git worktree, use that checkout as the session working directory, and bind the checkout to the new thread.
- Share the configured worktree pool with Desktop while leaving automatic cleanup disabled for CLI allocations.
- Reject unsupported commands, remote execution, ignored user configuration, ephemeral sessions, and use without the feature enabled before allocating a worktree.
## Testing
- Cover flag placement and inheritance, supported and rejected command combinations, worktree allocation and thread ownership, configuration gating, and compatibility with existing worktree-backed sessions.
