## What changed
Register the disabled-by-default `async_compaction` feature and accept either a boolean or a `[features.async_compaction]` table. Add `model_async_compact_threshold_percent` with a default of 65 and a valid range of 1–100, validated even when the feature is disabled. Setting a threshold alone does not enable the feature.
Expose the threshold in the runtime configuration and update the JSON schema for both configuration forms.
## Testing
Add configuration loader tests covering boolean and table forms, default and custom thresholds, explicit enablement, and rejection of out-of-range values.
GitOrigin-RevId: cf33de76878e7044bc8cf5d146375a07ea9eb078
## What changed
- Group preferences into Appearance, Notifications, Input, Sessions, and Text selection tabs, with search and links to existing theme, status line, terminal title, and keyboard editors.
- Persist preference changes to the selected local configuration file, apply supported changes immediately, and show save errors, configuration overrides, and restart requirements in the panel.
- Add a delayed notification test and controls for notification timing while preserving custom event filters.
- Add `tui.copy_on_select_clear_selection`, disabled by default, to clear transcript selection highlights only after confirmed automatic clipboard delivery.
- Keep local configuration editors usable while disconnected and prevent held activation keys or buffered input from triggering actions across editor and reconnect transitions.
## Testing
Add regression tests and rendering snapshots for panel navigation, search, dependency states, editor handoffs, offline persistence, notification timers, custom filter preservation, and confirmed-copy deselection.
GitOrigin-RevId: a16d218046060fcb6e61705a803fcd9297266e6e
## What changed
Support `plugins._default.enabled` with explicit per-plugin `enabled` overrides. Omission preserves existing source and account enablement; configuration cannot activate a plugin disabled at its source. Plugin settings such as remembered tool approvals inherit the default unless `enabled` is explicitly set.
Apply the policy to plugin skills, MCP servers, Apps, and hooks, including selected executor roots and runtime configuration refreshes. Preserve the latest plugin policy when adding MCP dependencies and rebuild hooks when concurrent configuration updates replace their inputs.
Report effective enablement in `plugin/list`, `plugin/installed`, `plugin/read`, and `plugin/share/list`. Remote installation still installs disabled packages, but skips MCP and Apps authentication setup without writing an enablement override.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for default inheritance and explicit overrides, source-disabled plugins, policy refreshes during active turns, disabled or malformed selected plugin roots, and remote installation authentication behavior.
GitOrigin-RevId: 83b70c5b47fc95474fec292f248683f1f887221e
## What changed
Add `include_environment_context_time`, enabled by default. Setting it to `false` omits `<current_date>` and `<timezone>` while retaining the rest of the environment context, and skips the clock read used to populate the date.
## Testing
Extend configuration, session context, and external time provider tests to cover enabled and disabled time fields, context updates across turns, and current-time reminder behavior.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5071ce1701c044b680624d0cdbba7e0bc2b5bbe6
## What changed
- Use the standard shell executor and remove the zsh fork escalation runtime, `codex-execve-wrapper`, and `shell-escalation` crate.
- Ignore `shell_zsh_fork` and `unified_exec_zsh_fork`, emit migration notices for legacy configuration, and warn when ignoring managed requirements for these flags.
- Keep the active session's `apply_patch` alias directory readable under restricted filesystem permissions.
## Testing
Add coverage for legacy configuration startup and shell execution, migration notice rendering, active alias directory selection, and nested `apply_patch` execution while other files in `CODEX_HOME` remain unreadable.
GitOrigin-RevId: 43af461fea32b4980550ee7237effd2bc0646ed8
## Why
Persisted multi-agent v2 children created after the client disconnects need lifecycle listeners so their runtimes can be released once idle. Listener attachment must also wait for an earlier runtime's cleanup to finish.
## What changed
- Start lifecycle listeners for persisted v2 children even when no initialized clients are connected, and defer attachment until pending unload cleanup completes.
- Keep ephemeral children loaded so follow-up tasks retain their model context.
- Raise the default `thread_unload_delay_secs` from 60 seconds to 1800 seconds (30 minutes), updating the configuration documentation and sample.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for children spawned after disconnect with zero- and one-second unload delays, including waiting for pending cleanup, keeping running threads loaded, releasing idle runtimes, and preserving an ephemeral child's earlier reply across a follow-up. Update configuration tests for the new default and explicit overrides.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2fecc77b5c03237aa8fd7eacc4bd119b99d36e0a
## Why
Transcript content can contain forged role headers, transcript boundaries, or claims of user approval. Guardian needs to distinguish that content from host-assigned authorship metadata.
## What changed
- Add `features.guardianv2.transcript_mode` with `line` (the default) and `json` options for synchronous review and asynchronous scoring.
- Render JSON transcript entries with host-assigned metadata and escaped `text`, and prepend matching provenance instructions to reviewer and classifier prompts.
- Preserve JSON metadata when budget recovery shortens historical text, and keep provenance instructions outside the configured classifier prompt limit.
## Testing
Add coverage for forged roles and approvals remaining within their original entries, JSON metadata surviving budget recovery, and provenance instructions surviving prompt limits. Extend review and scoring integration tests to verify JSON evidence and matching instructions.
GitOrigin-RevId: 81a3580390d3c4d1a664e554976cda5f1adc9a2c
## Why
Command Center previously reset to project grouping on startup, losing the user's selected grouping.
## What changed
Save grouping changes to `tui.agents_overview_grouping` in the client’s user configuration and restore the saved choice at startup. Support `project`, `status`, and `model`, with `project` as the default. Report save failures in Command Center while keeping the selected grouping active.
## Testing
Add tests for cycling through and persisting all grouping modes, preserving unrelated settings in a custom configuration file, displaying save errors, and restoring saved grouping during startup.
GitOrigin-RevId: fd56dfecb4b79cfa8439f54420ce58cc0ed66ec7
## What changed
Add `tui.mouse_scroll_speed` as a finite positive multiplier for transcript mouse wheel scrolling, including transcript overlays and session previews. Change the default from three rows to one row per wheel event; set the multiplier to `3.0` to retain the previous speed.
Fractional values accumulate movement across events and discard the remainder when direction reverses. For example, `0.5` scrolls one row every two events. Following the latest output pauses only when a whole row moves.
## Testing
Add tests for configuration validation, integer and fractional scroll speeds, direction changes, decimal accumulation, and following behavior. Extend local settings coverage to include a command-line override for the new setting.
GitOrigin-RevId: d355e246fd943415f0ce5a6affe849f77f3615e6
## What changed
- Add the `daybreak` configuration key, defaulting to `false`, with per-invocation overrides such as `-c daybreak=true`.
- Resolve access programs from the model catalog, preferring `daybreak_blue` over `daybreak_red` when enabled and selecting advertised `standard` access when disabled for signed-in ChatGPT accounts. Require the OpenAI provider, a signed-in ChatGPT account, and a compatible model to enable Daybreak.
- Save the choice for new persistent threads and inherit it on resume and fork, including ephemeral forks. Explicit CLI overrides apply only to the current invocation.
## Testing
Add protocol tests for advertised-program selection and exec integration tests for account and provider restrictions, saved choices, ephemeral forks, and invocation-only overrides.
GitOrigin-RevId: ac955f08b5a891e720cfc5f67fabb7b0f6d32bb8
## Why
Reloads can reject a valid thread configuration when the host configuration references a missing model provider that thread overrides replace. Concurrent cloud refreshes can also leave older policy snapshots or staged cache writes eligible for publication.
## What changed
- Compose preserved session layers before materializing refreshed configuration, retaining source-aware validation errors.
- Carry cloud policy revision bindings through config loading and role overrides. Reject stale MCP refreshes and disable enterprise MCP authorization when the policy is suspended. Retire the old policy when replacing or clearing its loader.
- Stage cloud cache writes in temporary files and publish them atomically only while their policy revision remains current.
- Route file reloads through the shared runtime refresh path, resolve paths relative to each config file, and preserve session settings. Restore host defaults for `secret_auth_storage` and `mcp_oauth_refresh_coordination` when explicit overrides are removed.
## Testing
Add regressions for thread-provided model providers, managed plugin and feature requirement refreshes, stale and suspended policy snapshots, superseded and retired cache writes, and file reloads preserving runtime settings and restoring feature defaults.
GitOrigin-RevId: 3280a2445eeb7074a142f720690bb0e4f01d174b
## Why
The transcript supplied to Guardian may omit earlier user instructions, restrictions, or revoked permissions. History retrieval lets the reviewer check relevant authorization before approving actions with side effects.
## What changed
- Add the disabled-by-default `guardian_conversation_history_tools` feature. With Apps enabled, expose `user_message.search_messages` and `user_message.read_messages` through the parent's live Apps connection and conversation identity.
- Recheck the parent's current app and tool policy on each call, rejecting disabled tools and calls requiring approval.
- Add retrieval instructions that distinguish user authorization from assistant context and account for later revocations and incomplete results. Allow overrides through `auto_review.experimental_conversation_history_prompt`.
- Limit history responses to an estimated 4,000 tokens by default, configurable through `auto_review.conversation_history_max_output_tokens`, while preserving stricter parent and reviewer limits.
- Allow explicit extension registries for isolated sessions and prevent those sessions from inheriting the implicit Apps connection.
## Testing
Add scenarios covering history tool exposure, parent connection and identity reuse, custom prompts, output truncation, stricter reviewer budgets, and live permission changes on a reused reviewer. Extend configuration coverage for blank prompt overrides.
GitOrigin-RevId: 055a69b113c8548bd58e7d5618ea026ba6d1ffb1
## Why
Guardian denial-limit interruptions lack a structured error identifying the cause. Make this opt-in because older clients may not recognize the new error in shared history.
## What changed
- Add `auto_review.circuit_break_action = "strict"` to attach `TooManyDenials` to the interrupted turn. The default leaves the error unset.
- Expose `turn.error.codexErrorInfo = "tooManyDenials"` in app-server notifications and saved history, and update protocol schemas and generated types.
- Preserve the warning, denial limit, and interrupted status without emitting a separate error notification.
## Testing
Add an integration test covering omitted, `default`, and `strict` settings, checking warnings, live turn errors, the absence of separate error notifications, and persisted turn errors after restart.
GitOrigin-RevId: cb5d379e64728d4d7b9daf834c13756e4a70db31
## What changed
Remove automatic next-message generation after successful turns, suggestion rendering in the composer, and the associated Tab acceptance and Escape dismissal handling. Remove the `tui.prompt_suggestions` configuration option and its schema entry, along with suggestion-specific tests and snapshots.
GitOrigin-RevId: 63bf6f2ca85da6ece502c86e2a805d000bf34210
## Why
Private IP destinations always bypassed inherited upstream proxies, preventing their use for private networks reachable through an upstream VPN proxy.
## What changed
- Add `codex exec-server --proxy-private-ips-via-upstream`, also configurable with `CODEX_EXEC_SERVER_PROXY_PRIVATE_IPS_VIA_UPSTREAM=true`. The setting defaults to disabled.
- Allow permitted RFC 1918, carrier-grade NAT, and IPv6 unique-local destinations to use an applicable upstream proxy. Loopback and link-local destinations retain direct routing, and destination access policy still applies.
- Keep connections direct when no valid upstream proxy applies or `allow_upstream_proxy=false`. Errors after selecting an upstream proxy do not trigger a direct retry.
- Rename `ExecServerRuntimePaths` to `ExecServerRuntimeOptions` and carry the routing setting from executor startup into the managed network proxy.
## Testing
Add routing coverage for private address ranges, special-use addresses, and public targets with the option enabled and disabled. Verify that HTTP and CONNECT requests still enforce destination allowlists and denylists, and update the CLI help snapshot.
GitOrigin-RevId: b7c9cc7da0e0f545694a6521b74c9b36b7b92769
## What changed
- Add `tui.right_click_paste` with `auto`, `on`, and `off` modes. The default `auto` enables the fallback on Windows and Linux, including WSL when terminal detection is conclusive. `on` also enables macOS. Both modes skip SSH sessions and recognized VS Code terminals.
- Paste clipboard text through the normal composer input path when no selection, search, or blocking view takes precedence. Discard pending results after intervening input, focus loss, or changes to the target thread, draft, or cursor.
- Read text asynchronously through the shared clipboard worker, with a five-second deadline and the message size limit. Read the Windows clipboard through PowerShell on WSL and reject overlapping clipboard operations.
## Testing
Add coverage for platform and terminal policy, normal paste delivery, stale reads, overlapping clipboard operations, read timeouts, oversized text, and large command output.
GitOrigin-RevId: 0a7b6d445c09928da6c5335841ba2a9a66cc7e4b
## Why
The sample hardcoded file-based credential storage and omitted configured auth routing and login restrictions. It should use the configured credentials, including secure storage in `cargo run` builds.
## What changed
- Load authentication settings through the shared bootstrap path and re-export the required helpers and types from `codex-core-api`.
- Honor CLI and MCP credential stores, `features.secret_auth_storage`, auth routing, the ChatGPT base URL, and system proxy settings.
- Preserve managed login-method and ChatGPT workspace restrictions while keeping the sample's built-in execution settings.
- Document the sample's authentication configuration behavior.
GitOrigin-RevId: b49883537acbebf9266b3970d2709e8e7d1bf217
## What changed
Add `tui.prompt_suggestions`, defaulting to `false`, along with suggestion request state, a generation prompt, and strict parsing of single-line suggestions up to 240 characters. Suggestion generation is not connected yet.
Keep suggestions outside the draft and render them dimly in an empty, focused composer. `Tab` accepts a suggestion for editing, a separate `Enter` submits, and `Escape` cancels pending suggestions. Respect active key bindings, popups, attachments, paste bursts, and interactive transcript footers; ignore stale results and cancel suggestions when a task starts.
## Testing
Add parser tests, composer interaction tests, and snapshots covering acceptance, dismissal, stale results, input precedence, wrapping, and transcript search layout.
GitOrigin-RevId: 868001a0fc3e6fd8c11ef1650aabc477fa36e03d
## What changed
- Add `tui.copy_on_select` with `auto` (default), `always`, and `never` modes, and apply it to the fullscreen transcript, transcript overlay, and resume/fork previews.
- Enable `auto` in tmux and Zellij, and in direct macOS terminals except Ghostty and Kitty. On other platforms, enable it in direct terminals identified as iTerm2 or Terminal.app.
- Copy nonempty mouse selections on release, including word and line selections, while retaining their highlight. Preserve link activation and ignore empty selections.
- Clear composer selections after confirmed keyboard copies, matching right-click copies, while preserving the draft and cursor. Keep selections when copying fails or delivery is unconfirmed.
## Testing
Add coverage for terminal defaults and configuration overrides, copying on release, retained highlights, repeated clicks, link activation, and empty drags. Extend composer coverage to verify selection clearing for `Cmd-C`, `Ctrl-C`, and right-click across clipboard outcomes.
GitOrigin-RevId: 24e6f9e267ef3ab249c5356db736e094127f68b8
## What changed
- Load `application.network` requirements at startup and explicit config/account reloads, applying local policy before authentication and cloud configuration bootstrap.
- Block traffic when policy loading fails, cancel requests that a new policy no longer permits, and reject configuration loads based on superseded policy snapshots. Local requirements edits take effect on the next explicit reload or restart.
- Bind authenticated clients to the current account and revoke them when account ownership changes. Carry policy enforcement through backend requests, realtime connections, workload identity exchanges, and code-mode gRPC streams while preserving gRPC trailers.
- Treat denied credential refreshes as policy errors without retrying them or invalidating stored credentials.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for startup restrictions, reload ordering, cancellation after restrictive or malformed requirements edits, account revocation, gRPC destination denial, workload identity cancellation, and credential preservation after denied OAuth refresh.
GitOrigin-RevId: 0cb4c720a906397e9df06675f01ecf60d741101f
## 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
- 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
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 `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
## 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
- Retain the trusted enterprise identity provider in runtime configuration and bind winning MCP registrations during catalog finalization. Require `features.use_xaa` and a configured identity provider for activation, while preserving existing server restrictions.
- Apply plugin `ema_auth` client, issuer, resource, and scope settings to installed and selected plugins. Disable registrations with mismatched endpoints or empty resources without rewriting plugin endpoints.
- Preserve enterprise auth policy across catalog rebuilds and rebind registrations when materialized server settings change. Keep registration rejection separate from persistent server-name vetoes so it does not disable replacement hosted apps.
## Testing
Add coverage for activation gates, configuration ownership, plugin endpoint validation, catalog rebuilds, and skipping interactive OAuth during installation of enterprise-managed plugins. Stabilize the sandbox network proxy test by reading request headers before closing the loopback connection.
GitOrigin-RevId: 3374f507d120835b285767cedbbb511fc7b0fba2
## 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.
GitOrigin-RevId: d50dcf4472ee221ce31cdd7ab2cd766f901a8039
## Why
Experimental context activation previously checked the provider and account eligibility without checking model support. Child sessions also inherited token-budget activation from their parent, even when starting fresh with a different model.
## What changed
- Add `ModelInfo.supports_experimental_context`, defaulting to `false`, and enable it for the bundled `gpt-6-astra` model. Require this capability when activating experimental context.
- Snapshot configured token-budget preferences before startup activation. Restore them for fresh child sessions before applying their starting model's defaults, while history forks retain their parent's activation.
- Pass unresolved token-budget preferences to child sessions so they can use their own model's prompts.
## Testing
Extend coverage for unsupported models, model-switch guidance under explicit and experimental activation, and child configuration from both active and inactive parents. Verify that omitted capability metadata defaults to `false`.
GitOrigin-RevId: 02df9e171682267232fa923d5ea3f7af36527808
## 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.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4098043cf588ddafc05c27505645495edd690cb9
## 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.
GitOrigin-RevId: fe0471ebef0bca21c44e1d8f731d46959eba0165
## What changed
- Add the `codex-attachment-store` crate with storage-neutral attachment metadata, references, errors, and an asynchronous persistence interface.
- Provide an inline implementation that preserves attachment bytes as media-typed base64 data URLs.
- Inject the store into `ThreadManager`, expose it to consumers, and retain inline storage as the default for existing entry points.
## Testing
- Verify inline storage round-trips binary, text, PNG, and JPEG data.
- Verify attachment debug output redacts URLs while retaining file IDs.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7688dcd3c89d7540ed2398f3e7c63881fbfcda97
## What changed
- Add the top-level `thread_unload_delay_secs` configuration key for the
app-server, with a 60-second default instead of the previous 30-minute
fixed delay.
- Allow zero-delay unloading and reject values that cannot fit in a
monotonic-clock deadline.
- Reset the unload countdown when a thread gains a subscriber or becomes
active, and preserve active turns even when the configured delay is zero.
- Document that unloading ephemeral threads discards their in-memory state.
## Testing
- Cover configuration parsing, defaults, overrides, and overflow rejection.
- Cover unsubscribe, resubscribe, delayed and immediate unloading,
notifications, persisted-thread resume, and WebSocket disconnect behavior.
GitOrigin-RevId: edd46f6b49bbdafbf606bff74378e8f569e95977
## What changed
- Add a stable `sleep_tool` feature that can enable or disable registration of the built-in sleep tool independently of the clock tool.
- Support structured `features.sleep_tool` configuration with `model_driven` and `always_on` modes. The default `model_driven` mode preserves the existing model and `current_time_reminder` behavior, while `always_on` registers sleep whenever the feature is enabled.
- Preserve nested sleep-tool configuration across CLI overrides, config merges, and feature toggles, and expose the settings in the generated config schema.
## Testing
- Cover feature-map overrides, both selection modes, legacy clock settings, config merging and editing, and invalid mode rejection.
GitOrigin-RevId: 18eadc582f8a4445958c29d063e5be495276703e
## What changed
- Add `mcp_optional_startup_grace_ms` with a default of 1,000 ms to control how long tool catalog capture waits for optional MCP servers.
- Treat a value of `0` as disabling the shared grace, so optional servers use their configured `startup_timeout_sec` instead.
- Apply updated grace values during runtime and MCP configuration refreshes, and reset cached startup deadlines when the configured duration changes.
## Testing
- Cover custom, disabled, refreshed, and shared startup grace behavior in MCP connection and core integration tests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 936196215ed6e0a29c9ec72cfee17663978df8ef
## What changed
- Use `exec_command` and `write_stdin` as the shell tool surface.
- Treat legacy `default`, `local`, and `shell_command` model metadata as `unified_exec`.
- Remove obsolete shell-selection configuration and runtime paths while preserving the feature and policy gates for zsh fork execution.
GitOrigin-RevId: d743cbe598630d73052f1fecad680c4cde17977d
## What changed
- Remove `experimental_thread_config_endpoint` from the configuration model and schema.
- Stop app-server and the in-process client from constructing a remote thread config loader from local configuration.
- Keep the thread config loader supplied at app-server startup fixed for the lifetime of the config manager.
GitOrigin-RevId: e7907fee2d631e7ecf89ec6bac8f22bc2c221350
## What changed
- Add `[skills].max_context_tokens` to override the token budget used to render the available-skills catalog.
- Require a positive value and cap configured budgets at 10,000 tokens.
- Preserve the existing default of 2% of the model context window when the option is unset.
## Testing
- Cover configuration parsing, override behavior, the 10,000-token cap, and catalog rendering within the configured budget.

## What changed
- Treat workload identity environment markers as an explicit authentication selection, even when another process credential is present.
- Return initialization errors from `AuthManager` and propagate them through commands and services instead of continuing with an unusable authentication state.
- Make `codex login status` validate workload identity, keep the TUI on an embedded app server for local workload identity, and reject workload identity in `codex mcp-server`, where it is unsupported.
## Testing
- Cover workload identity precedence and partial configuration errors.
- Verify login status reports an unreadable identity assertion and app-server routing enforces the supported workload identity topology.

## What changed
- Add `TurnInputRequest` and typed submission results for atomically starting a turn, steering the active turn, or declining input with a specific reason.
- Expose `start_or_steer_turn`, `start_turn_if_idle`, and `steer_turn` on `CodexThread`, and migrate Core consumers to these APIs.
- Make app-server `turn/start` steer an active regular turn and return that turn's ID. Reject incompatible output schemas and non-steerable turns without applying settings or enqueueing input.
## Testing
- Cover concurrent start-or-steer submissions, accepted and rejected settings updates, output-schema compatibility, idle-start rejection, and app-server steering.

## What changed
- Add the under-development `psp` feature and expose it in the config schema.
- Use the feature to attach the PSP cookie to first-party ChatGPT clients.
- Remove the hidden `--psp` flag and its process-scoped configuration plumbing.
- Preserve configured ChatGPT cookies when creating the PSP client used for GET and POST requests.
## Testing
- Update the config manager service test to verify that enabling `features.psp` retains the setting in the effective config and configures the expected ChatGPT cookie.

## What changed
- Remove effective-config lockfile export, replay, and validation from session startup.
- Remove the `debug.config_lockfile` settings and generated schema entries.
- Remove feature-config materialization helpers that were only used to create lockfiles.
GitOrigin-RevId: a8c07c1c06325b3ec3dae9a97c36c2488d37df25
## What changed
- Add `responses_api_metadata` for product-owned key/value metadata included in
every Responses API turn metadata payload, including parent and subagent
requests.
- Limit the map to 16 entries, ASCII identifier keys of at most 64 bytes, and
values of at most 128 bytes. Reject reserved Codex metadata keys and ignore
this setting in project-local configuration.
- Give configured product metadata precedence over app-server client metadata
while keeping it out of metadata sent to external MCP servers.
## Testing
- Cover reserved-key validation, metadata precedence, MCP isolation, and
propagation to parent and subagent Responses API requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: a7be798294fde25145ab375a468321bb4e4a49f1
## What changed
- Add `goals.max_goal_token_budget` as a positive-integer configuration setting.
- Use the configured maximum as the default budget for new goals and when `tokenBudget` is reset to `null`.
- Reject goal creation and updates whose token budget exceeds the configured maximum, including requests through goal tools and `thread/goal/set`.
- Respect managed configuration precedence and per-thread configuration overrides.
## Testing
- Cover configuration parsing and managed overrides.
- Cover defaulting, resetting, and rejecting oversized budgets through the goal service, goal tools, and app-server API.

## Why
Persisted base instructions need to retain whether they were explicitly customized or generated from a model template. Without that distinction, forks and config-lock replays can treat model-generated instructions as custom and keep the wrong template after a model or personality change.
## What changed
- Record custom or model provenance with base instructions in rollouts and config locks.
- Preserve custom instructions across model changes, while allowing model-generated instructions to follow the selected model and personality.
- Keep legacy rollouts without provenance compatible and propagate provenance through forks and spawned agents.
## Testing
- Cover provenance serialization and legacy rollout decoding.
- Cover role personality changes, forked model changes, config-lock replay, and multi-agent configuration.

## What changed
- Add a hidden global `--psp` runtime flag and propagate it through TUI, exec,
app-server, remote-control, and in-process startup paths.
- Attach the `oai-chat-psp=true` cookie to first-party ChatGPT requests when
enabled, using a cached cookie-aware client with sensitive request logging
disabled.
- Keep the routing selection out of persistent configuration layers while
preserving it across config refreshes and agent role changes.
## Testing
- Cover global flag parsing, app-server propagation, config-layer isolation,
and preservation across config rebuilds and role changes.

## What changed
- Add `features.tool_registry.error_on_tool_collisions`, defaulting to `false`, to the TOML model, generated schema, and resolved runtime configuration.
- Treat `tool_registry` as structured configuration rather than a feature toggle, including in strict config validation and profile configuration.
- Preserve the resolved collision policy in session config lockfiles when it is enabled or explicitly configured.
## Testing
- Cover deserialization, strict validation, default and enabled resolution, feature materialization, and config lockfile serialization.
