## Why
Code mode wall time should measure the host operation itself, without including
client-side response delays or idle time between requests.
## What changed
- Measure each execute, wait, and terminate request in the code mode host.
- Carry the duration through the stdio and gRPC protocols and use it for
model-visible wall time.
- Emit a structured `codex.code_mode.host_timing` event correlated with the
conversation, turn, tool call, and cell.
## Testing
- Cover successful and failed execution timing, delayed response reads,
repeated waits, termination, and missing cells across stdio and gRPC.
- Verify timing survives protocol serialization and is reflected in app-server
model output and structured telemetry.

## What changed
- Accept only `http://` and `https://` gRPC endpoints for app server
`--code-mode-host` connections.
- Limit the standalone code-mode host to stdio and gRPC listeners.
- Remove the WebSocket session provider, dual-WebSocket negotiation, transport
lanes, and related dependencies and tests.
- Keep coverage for shared and prewarmed gRPC hosts and reject WebSocket host
URLs in CLI parsing tests.

## What changed
Use a 30-second handshake timeout for locally spawned code-mode hosts while
retaining the existing 10-second timeout for WebSocket connections.

## Why
Model-reachable child processes should not inherit Codex launch context.
## What changed
- Treat `OPENAI_FEDERATION_RULE_ID` and `OPENAI_IDENTITY_TOKEN_FILE` as non-inheritable environment variables, with case-insensitive matching.
- Remove them after shell environment policy overrides and before spawning commands across execution, MCP, hooks, Git helpers, and remote helper processes.
## Testing
- Cover inherited and explicitly configured variants, including mixed-case names.
- Verify the variables are absent from real child environments and app-server command and process execution.

## Why
Code-mode WebSocket connections are latency-sensitive, so buffering small TCP
writes can delay request and response traffic.
## What changed
- Enable `TCP_NODELAY` on outbound remote-session WebSocket connections.
- Enable `TCP_NODELAY` on sockets accepted by the code-mode host, logging a
warning if the socket option cannot be set.
## Testing
- Add a listener test that connects to the host and verifies the accepted
socket has `TCP_NODELAY` enabled.

## What changed
- Add `create_session_with_limits` and session-scoped cell execution limits.
- Clamp execute and wait yield times to the session's `max_yield_time_ms`
without terminating the running cell.
- Negotiate support with remote code-mode hosts and include non-default limits
in `session/open`, while keeping unlimited sessions compatible with hosts and
providers that do not support limits.
## Testing
- Cover yield-time clamping, zero-timeout behavior, and isolation between
sessions.
- Cover wire serialization, capability negotiation, unsupported hosts, and
shared process-host execution.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9517321cd605bb87f93eeaa6ba331cc2e346e582
## Why
Code-mode `wait` and `terminate` requests can remain pending when the host
transport stalls.
## What changed
- Add a 60-second transport allowance to the runtime timeout for `wait`, and
apply the same transport deadline to `terminate`.
- Return a model-visible timeout error and invalidate the connection when the
deadline expires, so the next execution reconnects to the host.
## Testing
- Cover queued `wait` and `terminate` requests that exceed their deadlines.
- Verify that a timed-out `wait` reports the error and reconnects on the next
code-mode execution.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5d772e5a6f3793aa8865a1160639b851fd4824fb
## Why
Large nested-tool callbacks can occupy a WebSocket and delay unrelated session
operations on the same code-mode connection.
## What changed
- Negotiate the optional `dual-websocket-v1` capability and pair a second,
token-scoped WebSocket with the control connection.
- Route nested-tool callbacks and their results over the bulk socket while
keeping session operations, notifications, and execution responses on the
control socket. Reject messages sent on the wrong lane.
- Preserve the single-connection transport when the capability is unavailable,
and bound pairing, queued callbacks, and deferred cross-socket messages.
- Defer callbacks that arrive before their execution-started response, and
return delegate errors without disconnecting the connection.
## Testing
Add protocol, transport, driver, and WebSocket integration coverage for
capability negotiation, lane routing, pairing failures, out-of-order messages,
and progress during large concurrent tool results.
GitOrigin-RevId: fa4504653e7cbf3c4ec930ae57aa0a41345bad66
## What changed
- Move the V8 implementation into a dedicated `codex-code-mode-runtime` crate used by `codex-code-mode-host`, removing the embedded runtime fallback from the Codex process.
- Resolve the host executable from the active installation layout and check its availability before selecting tools.
- Fall back to direct tools with a one-time warning when optional code mode is unavailable. Keep `code_mode_only` and `disable_in_process_fallback` configurations fail-closed.
## Testing
- Cover host discovery for standalone and package layouts, including missing hosts and symlinks.
- Verify direct-tool fallback, one-time warnings, and fail-closed code-mode-only behavior.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5aa3c6f1db148b2231fc24089a2ee0e2b00dbddb
## What changed
- Allow `features.code_mode_host` to use a configuration table with
`disable_in_process_fallback`. When enabled, failure to start the standalone
host is returned as tool output instead of falling back to embedded V8.
- Preserve the existing fallback behavior by default and continue accepting the
boolean feature toggle.
- Limit displayed host paths in spawn errors to 512 bytes while retaining the
executable-bearing suffix and valid UTF-8 boundaries.
## Testing
- Cover boolean and table-based feature configuration, fallback-disabled host
failures, and bounded ASCII and UTF-8 error paths.
GitOrigin-RevId: ab3d014e79054c2f8beef9a658915f01cca197b2
## What changed
- Add `--code-mode-host ws://...` and `wss://...` support to `codex app-server`, gated by the `code_mode_host` feature. When omitted, app-server continues to start a local host.
- Share one remote WebSocket connection across the process's threads, using the configured HTTP client's proxy and TLS policy and preserving the existing framed host protocol.
- Reject invalid host URLs, bound WebSocket frame sizes, close connections cleanly, and return an error when a connection exceeds 1,024 pending delegate calls without disconnecting it.
## Testing
- Cover CLI validation, WebSocket protocol execution and shutdown, connection sharing across app-server threads, and delegate-call capacity recovery.
GitOrigin-RevId: 715e82d4d9db1e7e2f91b754a777dcab504e2ae4
## Why
Not every Codex distribution currently includes the
`codex-code-mode-host` companion binary. Enabling the process-host
feature should not make code mode unavailable on those surfaces while
packaging support is being completed.
## What changed
- Fall back to an in-process code-mode session only when spawning the
companion binary returns `io::ErrorKind::NotFound`.
- Keep permission, handshake, timeout, and other host failures visible
instead of silently falling back.
- Store the provider's owned-process/in-process choice as one
enum-backed state so later sessions reuse the fallback decision.
- Preserve the underlying spawn `io::Error` while retaining the host
path in the displayed error.
- Update provider, `CodeModeService`, and end-to-end coverage to verify
successful fallback execution.
## Test plan
- `just test -p codex-code-mode`
- `just test -p codex-core missing_process_host`
## Summary
- add `ProcessOwnedCodeModeSessionProvider` and logical session
generation/rebinding state
- add the supervised child-process connection, reader/writer tasks, and
driver state machine
- make dropped execute/wait/open callers cancellation-safe with explicit
ownership handoff and durable cleanup
- validate cell/delegate lifecycle state and reject invalid protocol
transitions
- add end-to-end stdio coverage for delegates, cancellation, frame
limits, child loss, stale generations, replacement, and long-lived
sessions
## Why
This final stage exposes the process-owned client only after the wire
protocol, host-safe runtime, and standalone host are independently in
place. Transport failure is fail-stop: the client closes local state,
cancels callbacks, reaps the child, and lazily rebuilds a fresh host
generation rather than transactionally recovering the old connection.
