Shijie Rao 7abfcf220b Expose thread-level multi-agent mode (#28792)
## Why

Once multi-agent mode can be selected per turn, clients also need to
choose the initial selection when creating a thread and observe that
selection through lifecycle and settings APIs.

The selected value is intentionally distinct from the effective
model-visible value: no client selection is represented as `null`, even
though an eligible multi-agent v2 turn derives `explicitRequestOnly` as
its effective default.

## What changed

- Add the optional experimental `thread/start.multiAgentMode` parameter
and pass it through thread creation.
- Preserve an omitted initial value as an unset selection rather than
eagerly storing `explicitRequestOnly`.
- Apply an explicit `thread/start` selection to the first turn through
the session configuration established at thread creation.
- Restore the latest persisted effective mode as the selected baseline
on cold resume when rollout history contains one.
- Inherit the optional selected mode from a loaded parent when creating
related runtime threads.
- Return the current selected `multiAgentMode` from `thread/start`,
`thread/resume`, `thread/fork`, and thread settings, using `null` when
no mode is selected.
- Keep lifecycle reporting independent from model capability and feature
eligibility; core turn construction remains responsible for calculating
and persisting the effective mode.

## Not covered

- Clearing an existing loaded-session selection back to unset through
`turn/start`; omitted or `null` currently retains the session's
selection.
- A TUI control, slash command, or `config.toml` preference.

## Verification

- `CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 just test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 just test -p codex-app-server multi_agent_mode`

The focused app-server coverage verifies explicit `thread/start`
initialization, first-turn prompting, nullable reporting for an omitted
selection, and retention of selections that are not currently
runtime-eligible.

## Stack

Stacked on #28685. This PR contains only the thread initialization and
lifecycle/settings API layer.

Shijie Rao fc8c6b7384 Add per-turn multi-agent mode (#28685)
## Why

Multi-agent v2 currently carries an explicit-request-only delegation
rule in its static usage hint. That provides a safe default, but it
prevents clients from selecting proactive delegation per turn without
changing static guidance or rewriting prior model context.

This change makes delegation mode a session selection that can be
updated through `turn/start`, while deriving the effective model-visible
mode separately for each turn. Eligible multi-agent v2 turns remain
explicit-request-only unless proactive mode is both selected and
enabled.

## What changed

- Add the experimental `turn/start.multiAgentMode` parameter with
`explicitRequestOnly` and `proactive` values. Omission retains the
loaded session's current optional selection.
- Add the default-off `features.multi_agent_mode` feature gate. Eligible
multi-agent v2 turns use the selected mode when enabled; an unset
selection or disabled gate resolves to `explicitRequestOnly`.
- Treat mode prompting as inapplicable for multi-agent v1 and other
unsupported session configurations, producing no multi-agent mode
developer message rather than rejecting the turn.
- Move the explicit-request-only rule out of the static v2 usage hint
and into a bounded, tagged developer context fragment.
- Emit the effective mode in initial context and only when that
effective mode changes on later turns.
- Persist the effective mode in `TurnContextItem` as the durable
baseline for resume and context-update comparisons.

Historical rollout items are not rewritten. Later mode developer
messages establish the current rule incrementally.

## Not covered

- Initial selection through `thread/start` and selected-mode reporting
from thread lifecycle/settings APIs; those are isolated in the stacked
#28792.
- A TUI control or slash command for selecting the mode.
- Persisting a preferred mode to `config.toml`; selection remains
session/turn scoped.
- Changes to multi-agent concurrency limits, tool availability, or model
catalog capability declarations.
- Rewriting historical rollout prompt items. Cold resume restores the
latest persisted effective mode when available while leaving historical
developer messages intact.

## Verification

- `CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 just test -p codex-core multi_agent_mode`
- Focused app-server coverage verifies that `turn/start.multiAgentMode`
produces proactive developer instructions for an eligible v2 turn.

## Stack

Followed by #28792, which adds `thread/start` initialization and
lifecycle/settings observability.

xl-openai e83b7841b0 [codex] Reuse parsed plugin skills during session startup (#28844)
## Summary

- Preserve raw plugin skill-root snapshots in the matching loaded-plugin
cache entry, keyed by the effective plugin root identity including
namespace.
- Pass those snapshots through `SkillsLoadInput` as an optional preload,
so session startup reuses plugin parsing while ordinary skill loads pass
`None`.
- Keep plugin skill loading cohesive: the existing loaders accept the
optional snapshots directly, and uncached or marketplace-detail paths do
not create a cache.

## Why

Plugin discovery already parses plugin skills to determine available
capabilities. Cold session startup then scanned and parsed the same
roots again while building the skills snapshot.

This solves the same duplicate-work problem as #28623 while keeping
ownership narrow: `PluginsManager` creates and owns
`PluginSkillSnapshots` only for its loaded-plugin cache entry;
`SkillsService` consumes an optional clone. Entry replacement or
clearing naturally drops the snapshots, with no separate generation,
capacity policy, or watcher coupling.

iceweasel-oai ef75171f18 Run fs helper through Windows sandbox wrapper (#28359)
## Why

This is the final PR in the Windows fs-helper sandbox stack and contains
the actual bug fix.

The exec-server filesystem helper is a direct-spawn path: it asks
`SandboxManager` for a `SandboxExecRequest`, then launches the returned
argv itself. That works on macOS and Linux because the transformed argv
is already a self-contained sandbox wrapper. On Windows, the transformed
request carried `WindowsRestrictedToken` metadata, but the direct-spawn
fs-helper runner still launched the helper argv directly.

That means Windows filesystem built-ins backed by the fs-helper could
run with the parent Codex process permissions instead of the configured
Windows sandbox. This PR makes the direct-spawn transform produce a
self-contained Windows wrapper argv before fs-helper launches it.

## What Changed

- Added `SandboxManager::transform_for_direct_spawn()` for callers that
launch the returned argv themselves.
- Wrapped Windows restricted-token direct-spawn requests with `codex.exe
--run-as-windows-sandbox` and then marked the outer request as
unsandboxed, matching the macOS/Linux wrapper argv shape.
- Updated `exec-server/src/fs_sandbox.rs` to use the direct-spawn
transform for fs-helper launches.
- Materialized the inner `codex.exe --codex-run-as-fs-helper` executable
into `.sandbox-bin` so the sandboxed user can run it.
- Carried runtime workspace roots through `FileSystemSandboxContext` as
`PathUri` values so `:workspace_roots` policies resolve correctly
without sending native client paths over exec-server JSON.
- Preserved wrapper setup identity environment needed by Windows sandbox
setup without changing the serialized inner helper environment.

## Verification

- `just bazel-lock-update`
- `just bazel-lock-check`
- `just test -p codex-sandboxing transform_for_direct_spawn_windows`
- `just test -p codex-exec-server fs_sandbox::tests`
- `just fix -p codex-windows-sandbox -p codex-sandboxing -p
codex-exec-server -p codex-core -p codex-file-system`

Local note: `just fmt` completed Rust formatting, but this workstation
still fails the non-Rust formatter phases because uv cannot open its
cache and the local buildifier/dotslash path is missing.

jif 0318381762 Replace SkillsManager with SkillsService (#28705)
## Why

Host skill discovery was still exposed as a manager even though it is a
process-owned service shared by sessions, the app-server catalog, and
file-watcher invalidation. The skills extension also consumed an ad hoc
loaded-skills wrapper instead of a named immutable snapshot.

## What changed

- replace `SkillsManager` with concrete `SkillsService`
- make the service cache and return immutable `HostSkillsSnapshot`
values
- migrate the skills extension host provider to the snapshot boundary
- migrate app-server catalog, watcher, and invalidation paths to the
service

This keeps the service limited to host discovery, caching, roots, and
invalidation. Catalog rendering and invocation remain extension
responsibilities for the next stacked change.

pakrym-oai 172b2218a5 core: remove redundant TurnContext and Prompt fields (#28638)
## Why

`TurnContext` had accumulated dead fields and cached projections of
values already owned by its per-turn `Config` or `ModelInfo`. Keeping
both copies made ownership unclear and allowed artificial split-brain
states, such as a compatibility hash differing from the model metadata
it came from.

`Prompt` similarly carried a write-only personality after personality
selection had already been materialized into its base instructions.

This makes the canonical owner explicit: configuration-backed values
come from `config`, model-derived values come from `model_info`, and
prompts contain only data consumed by request construction.

## What changed

- Remove the unused `ghost_snapshot`, `codex_self_exe`, and
`thread_source` fields.
- Remove duplicate `comp_hash`, `truncation_policy`, `features`,
`shell_environment_policy`, `codex_linux_sandbox_exe`, `compact_prompt`,
and `tool_mode` fields.
- Read those values directly from `TurnContext::config` or
`TurnContext::model_info` at their consumers.
- Remove the write-only `Prompt::personality` field and its constructor
assignments.
- Preserve review-turn inheritance of the parent turn's shell policy,
Linux sandbox executable, and compact prompt through the review config.

Adam Perry @ OpenAI 3d02c443bc [codex] core: restore absolute turn context cwd (#28629)
## Why

#28152 jumped the gun on moving the rollout format to store URIs, and
would likely break compat with some features that don't go through the
same types as the core logic.

## What

Make `TurnContextItem.cwd` an `AbsolutePathBuf` again, remove test added
for `PathUri` serialization in rollouts. Also drops a bunch of error
paths that are no longer needed.

Adam Perry @ OpenAI 4c79527e31 core: render remote environment cwd natively (#28152)
## Why

Model-visible `<environment_context>` should match the environment of
the executor, not of the app server.

Stacked on #28146.

## What

- Keep selected environment cwd values as `PathUri` while building
environment context.
- Render cwd text using the path convention represented by the URI, with
the canonical URI as a fallback.
- Preserve compatibility with legacy `TurnContextItem.cwd` values when
reconstructing and diffing context.
- Extend the Wine-backed remote Windows test to assert that the model
sees `powershell` and `C:\windows`.

Adam Perry @ OpenAI f8850cab1d app-server: preserve target-native environment cwd (#28146)
## Why

app-server may run on a different OS from the selected exec-server
environment. Parsing that environment’s cwd with the Codex host’s path
rules prevents thread startup.

## What

Carry environment cwd values as `LegacyAppPathString` at the app-server
boundary and `PathUri` internally. Existing tool-call schemas and
relative-path behavior stay host-native; remaining local-only consumers
convert explicitly and leave follow-up TODOs.

The Wine integration test verifies app-server can start a thread and
complete an ordinary turn with a Windows environment cwd from Linux.

## Validation

- focused app-server environment-selection and protocol schema tests

jif 1b24ba912a core: surface terminal subagent errors to parent agents (#28375)
## Why

When a subagent exhausts its retries, it emits an `Error`, but the
generic task lifecycle then emits `TurnComplete(None)`. That completion
used to overwrite the subagent's `Errored` status with
`Completed(None)`, so the parent received an empty completion
notification.

This made a failed child look indistinguishable from a child that
completed without an answer. In unattended or long-running multi-agent
work, the root could silently continue without knowing that delegated
work failed or how to restart it.

## Behavior

Before, a terminal stream failure was reduced to an empty completion:

```text
<subagent_notification>
{"agent_path":"/root/worker","status":{"completed":null}}
</subagent_notification>
```

Now the parent receives the actual terminal error, bounded to 1,000
tokens, together with an actionable recovery hint:

```text
<subagent_notification>
{
  "agent_path": "/root/worker",
  "status": {
    "errored": "stream disconnected before completion: stream closed before response.completed"
  },
  "next_action": "This agent's turn failed. If you still need this agent, use `followup_task` to give it another task."
}
</subagent_notification>
```

The notification remains queue-only: it does not wake the root or replay
the failed request. The root sees it at the next sampling boundary and
can use `followup_task` to start a new turn for that agent.

## What changed

- Added terminal-error precedence to the [agent status
reducer](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/e95fcfe2bb6a02f1a75650afa20048859f556511/codex-rs/core/src/agent/status.rs#L23-L34),
so a closing `TurnComplete` cannot erase an immediately preceding
`Errored` status.
- Made MultiAgentV2 completion forwarding use the retained session
status instead of re-deriving `Completed(None)` from the final event.
- Extended the [subagent notification
fragment](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/e95fcfe2bb6a02f1a75650afa20048859f556511/codex-rs/core/src/context/subagent_notification.rs#L6-L60)
with a `next_action` for terminal errors and a hard cap on model-visible
error text.
- Kept successful completions and interrupted turns unchanged.

## Verification

- Added a status-reducer test proving that `Errored` survives the
trailing `TurnComplete`.
- Added an integration test that exhausts a subagent's stream retries
and verifies the exact `agent_message` delivered to the parent,
including the error and `followup_task` guidance.
- Re-ran the existing successful-completion and interrupted-turn
notification tests.

pakrym-oai 022f1221e8 [codex] Bind shell snapshots to retained thread environments (#28421)
## Why

Shell snapshots are currently session-scoped even though shell and cwd
are properties of a selected turn environment. That makes snapshot
refresh depend on separate session-cwd plumbing, prevents retained
environments from retaining their snapshot work, and can make snapshot
construction use a different shell than command execution.

This follows #27955 by making the retained thread-environment service
own environment snapshot lifecycles. Session configuration remains the
requested selection state, while `ThreadEnvironments` remains the source
of successfully resolved environments.

## What changed

- Configure the shell-snapshot builder before initial environment
resolution.
- Start each local environment snapshot task when its `TurnEnvironment`
is built and retain that shared task while environment ID and cwd still
match.
- Inherit retained environment snapshots into spawned child threads.
- Carry the selected `TurnEnvironment` through shell runtimes so
snapshot construction and command execution use the same
environment-specific shell and cwd.
- Load project instructions and warm plugins/skills after initial
environment resolution.
- Continue decoding invalid UTF-8 instruction files lossily without
emitting a startup warning.
- Keep requested selections in `SessionConfiguration`; failed or
duplicate resolutions only affect the resolved environment snapshot.

## Validation

- `cargo check -p codex-core --tests`
- `just test -p codex-home instructions` (6 passed)
- Focused environment, instruction, shell-snapshot, and user-shell tests
(84 passed)
- Focused shell-snapshot, user-shell, and unified-exec tests (126
passed; two event-timing tests passed on retry)

Adam Perry @ OpenAI 46f17930b6 Use PathUri in filesystem permission paths for exec-server (#28165)
## Why

Progress towards letting app-server and exec-server run on different
platforms, specifically for sandbox configuration.

## What

- Make the filesystem path containment hierarchy generic, defaulting to
`AbsolutePathBuf` for now.
- Have clients specify `AbsolutePathBuf` or `PathUri` directly where
needed.
- Use `PathUri` throughout exec-server filesystem protocol and trait
boundaries.
- Implement `From` for conversion to path URIs and `TryFrom` for
fallible conversion to absolute paths through the generic type
hierarchy.

pakrym-oai 9728992fab [codex] retain resolved environments across turns (#27955)
## Why

Selected execution environments are thread-scoped resources, but startup
and turn construction repeatedly resolved their IDs and working
directories. That discarded existing environment handles and shell
metadata even when a selection had not changed.

Session configuration updates also need to affect future turns without
changing the resolved environment set already captured by a running
turn.

## What changed

- Create a `ThreadEnvironments` service inside `Codex` from the spawned
`EnvironmentManager` and raw environment selections, then store it on
`SessionServices`.
- Split service construction from `update_selections`, allowing session
configuration updates to mutate the resolved set in place.
- Retain an existing `TurnEnvironment` when its environment ID and
working directory match; resolve only added or changed selections and
remove selections that are no longer present.
- Normalize duplicate IDs by keeping the first selection and skip
individual selections that fail to resolve instead of rejecting the
entire update.
- Give each `TurnContext` a cloned `TurnEnvironmentSnapshot`, so later
session configuration updates affect future turns without rewriting an
active turn.
- Reuse the service-owned environment manager and resolved snapshot for
startup work, MCP initialization, and child-thread spawning instead of
flowing resolved environments through spawn arguments.

Adam Perry @ OpenAI efbd00f21f [codex] exec-server honors remote environment cwd and shell (#28122)
## Why

Next slice needed to make progress on the `remote_env_windows` test is
to support passing a Windows cwd for the remote environment and using
that environment's native shell. This lets the test run a real Windows
process instead of only recording an early path or shell mismatch.

## What

- change `TurnEnvironmentSelection.cwd` from `AbsolutePathBuf` to
`PathUri`
- convert local cwd values to URIs when constructing selections
- preserve a remote primary cwd instead of replacing it with the local
legacy fallback
- prefer the selected environment's discovered shell for unified exec,
falling back to the session shell when unavailable
- convert back to a host-native absolute path at current native-only
consumer boundaries
- reject or deny unsupported foreign cwd values at the existing
request-permissions boundary, with TODOs for its future migration
- extend the hermetic Wine test to execute Windows PowerShell in
`C:\windows` and verify successful process completion
- record the current app-server rejection against the same Wine-backed
remote Windows fixture when its cwd is supplied as a native Windows path

rphilizaire-openai bacfc5e4c0 [codex] add latency tracing spans (#27710)
## Why

We have some large gaps in our thread start, resume, and pre-sampling
traces that make it hard to tell where latency is coming from.

## What Changed

- Added coarse spans around thread start/resume, turn context
construction, rollout reconstruction, skill/plugin loading, and tool
preparation.
- Added a breakdown of discoverable-tool preparation across connector
loading, plugin discovery, and local plugin details.

## Testing

- `cargo check -p codex-app-server -p codex-core -p codex-core-skills -p
codex-core-plugins`
- Built the app-server locally and exercised thread start, first turn,
follow-up turn, server restart, thread resume, and a resumed turn.

Adam Perry @ OpenAI 968a3ac9c1 [codex] make PathUri::from_abs_path infallible (#27976)
## Why

`PathUri::from_abs_path` can fail for absolute paths that do not have a
normal `file:` URI representation, forcing filesystem call sites to
handle a conversion error even though the original path can be preserved
losslessly.

## What

Make `from_abs_path` infallible and migrate its callers. Unrepresentable
paths use `file:///%00/bad/path/<base64>`, encoding Unix bytes or
Windows UTF-16LE; `to_abs_path` validates and decodes that fallback. The
leading encoded null reserves a namespace that cannot collide with a
real Unix or Windows path, and fallback URIs remain opaque to lexical
path operations.

## Validation

Added path-URI coverage for Unix null and non-UTF-8 paths, Windows
device/verbatim and non-Unicode paths, serialization, malformed
fallbacks, opaque lexical operations, invalid native payloads, and
literal `/bad/path` collision resistance.

Adam Perry @ OpenAI 52a50aec70 sandboxing: migrate cwd inputs to PathUri (#27816)
## Why

Sandbox cwd values can cross app-server and exec-server host boundaries.
They should retain URI semantics until the receiving host validates them
instead of being interpreted early as native paths.

## What

- Carry `PathUri` through filesystem sandbox contexts, sandbox commands,
and transform inputs.
- Convert command and policy cwd once in `SandboxManager::transform`,
then keep launch requests native.
- Preserve sandbox cwd over remote filesystem transport and reject
non-native URIs without fallback.
- Cache paired native/URI turn-environment cwd values during migration,
with immutable access to keep them synchronized.
- Extend existing protocol, forwarding, transform, and core runtime
tests.

Adam Perry @ OpenAI bf667c7003 [codex] Load AGENTS.md from all bound environments (#27696)
## Why

We already have the machinery to support multiple environments on a
single thread, but we only show the model the contents of `AGENTS.md`
files in the primary environment.

We should show the model all of the relevant project instructions when
we know there's more than one environment.

## Known Gaps

As discussed in the RFC, this implementation:

1. doesn't handle environments being added/removed to/from the thread
after its creation
2. it doesn't enforce an aggregate context budget across environments,
and instead applies the configured project maximum independently to each
environment

## Implementation

- Discover project instructions in environment order with an independent
byte budget per environment and preserve source provenance/order.
- Keep the legacy fragment byte-for-byte when exactly one environment
contributes project instructions; use environment-labeled sections when
two or more environments contribute.
- Freeze the complete rendered fragment in `LoadedAgentsMd`, insert it
directly into requests, and recognize both layouts in contextual and
memory filtering.
- Add exact rendering, independent-budget, source-order,
creation-snapshot, and consumer coverage without changing app-server
schemas.

pakrym-oai be338ee9a2 [codex] resolve environment shell metadata eagerly (#27709)
## Why

Turn construction passed resolved environments through several layers
while leaving the environment shell unresolved. As a result,
model-visible environment context could fall back to the session shell
instead of reporting the selected remote environment's shell.

Resolve environment metadata at the turn-context boundary so each turn
carries the shell that belongs to its selected environment. Keep request
validation in app-server, where invalid selections can be returned as
straightforward JSON-RPC errors without coupling core turn construction
to that policy.

## What changed

- resolve environment selections eagerly in
`new_turn_context_from_configuration`
- store the full resolved `Shell` on each `TurnEnvironment`
- simplify the now-redundant resolved-environment constructor plumbing
- keep duplicate and unknown-environment validation as a small
app-server preflight
- add a remote-environment integration test that runs a full
`test_codex` turn and verifies the model-visible environment message
reports `bash`

## Testing

- `cargo check -p codex-core --test all -p codex-app-server`
- `remote_test_env_exposes_bash_shell_to_model` on the Linux
remote-executor harness

Owen Lin 14df0e8833 core: Consolidate Responses API Codex metadata (#27122)
## What
Introduce a `CodexResponsesMetadata` struct that defines all the core
metadata we send to Responses API. Example fields are `thread_id`,
`turn_id`, `window_id`, etc.

Going forward, `client_metadata["x-codex-turn-metadata"]` will be the
canonical way Codex sends metadata to Responses API across both HTTP and
websocket transports.

For now, we continue to emit the existing top-level HTTP headers and
top-level `client_metadata` fields from the same
`CodexResponsesMetadata` struct for compatibility reasons.

Also, app-server clients who specify additional
`responsesapi_client_metadata` via `turn/start` and `turn/steer` will
have those fields merged into
`client_metadata["x-codex-turn-metadata"]`, but cannot override the
reserved fields that core uses (i.e. the fields in
`CodexResponsesMetadata`).

## Why

Responses API request instrumentation is the source of truth for
downstream Codex analytics that join requests by Codex IDs such as
session, thread, turn, and context window. Before this change, those
values were assembled through several request-specific paths: HTTP
request bodies, websocket handshake headers, websocket `response.create`
payloads, compaction requests, and the rich `x-codex-turn-metadata`
envelope all had their own wiring.

That made metadata propagation easy to drift across API-key/direct
Responses API requests, ChatGPT-auth/proxied requests, websocket
requests, and compaction requests. It also made additions like
`window_id` error-prone because a field could be added to one transport
projection but missed in another.

## What changed

- Added `CodexResponsesMetadata` as the core-owned snapshot for Codex
metadata sent to ResponsesAPI.
- Render `client_metadata["x-codex-turn-metadata"]`, flat
`client_metadata` projections, and direct compatibility headers from
that same snapshot.
- Include the known Codex-owned fields in the turn metadata blob,
including installation/session/thread/turn/window IDs, request kind,
lineage, sandbox/workspace metadata, timing, and compaction details.
- Treat app-server `responsesapi_client_metadata` as enrichment for the
Codex turn metadata blob while preventing those extras from overriding
Codex-owned fields.
- Use the same metadata path for normal turns, websocket prewarm, local
compaction, remote v1 compaction, and remote v2 compaction.
- Keep websocket connection-only preconnect metadata separate so
handshakes carry compatibility identity headers without inventing a fake
turn metadata blob.

Adam Perry @ OpenAI 236b50125d [codex] Load user instructions through an injected provider (#27101)
## Why

We want to remove implicit use of `$CODEX_HOME` from `codex-core` and
make embedders responsible for supplying user-level instructions. This
also ensures user instructions load when no primary environment is
selected.

## What changed

Stacked on #27415, which makes `codex exec` surface thread-scoped
runtime warnings.

- Added `UserInstructionsProvider` to `codex-extension-api`, with
absolute source attribution and recoverable loading warnings.
- Added `codex-home` with the filesystem-backed provider for
`AGENTS.override.md` and `AGENTS.md`, preserving precedence, fallback,
trimming, lossy UTF-8 handling, and the existing uncapped global
instruction size.
- Removed global instruction loading from `Config` and require
`ThreadManager` callers to inject a provider.
- Load provider instructions once for each fresh root runtime, including
runtimes without a primary environment. Running sessions retain their
snapshot, while child agents inherit the parent snapshot without
invoking the provider.
- Keep provider instructions separate while loading project `AGENTS.md`,

Ahmed Ibrahim ba4925b3c2 [codex] Compact when comp_hash changes (#27520)
## Summary
- snapshot `comp_hash` into `TurnContext` when the turn is created and
use that snapshot as the downstream source of truth
- persist the turn hash in rollout context and recover it into
previous-turn settings during resume and fork replay
- compact existing history with the previous model only when both
adjacent turns provide hashes and the values differ
- record `comp_hash_changed` as the compaction reason
- cover ordinary transitions, resume, and missing-hash compatibility
with end-to-end tests

## Why
History produced under one compaction-compatible model configuration may
not be safe to carry directly into another. Compacting at the turn
boundary converts that history before context updates and the new user
message are added. Persisting the turn snapshot in `TurnContextItem`
makes the same protection work after resuming a rollout.

A missing hash is not treated as evidence of incompatibility. `None →
Some`, `Some → None`, and `None → None` do not trigger compaction; only
`Some(previous) → Some(current)` with unequal values does.

## Stack
- depends on #27532

Charlie Marsh 41b4fabbb4 Use latest-wins MCP manager replacement (#27259)
## Summary

We originally addressed startup prewarming holding the read side of
`RwLock<McpConnectionManager>` by snapshotting tool-list state. Review
feedback identified the broader ownership problem: the outer
synchronization should only publish or retrieve the current manager,
while MCP operations rely on the manager's internal synchronization. A
follow-up preserved operation retirement with a separate gate, but
further review questioned whether that synchronization was actually
required and whether we could support latest-wins replacement instead.

This PR now stores the current MCP manager in `ArcSwap`. Each operation
uses `load_full()` to obtain an owned `Arc<McpConnectionManager>`, then
performs MCP I/O without retaining the publication mechanism. Refresh
cancels obsolete startup work, constructs a replacement, and atomically
publishes it. New operations see the latest manager, while operations
that already loaded the previous manager retain a valid handle. Refresh
happens at a turn boundary, so there should be no active user tool calls
to drain.

Git history supports dropping the outer `RwLock`. It was introduced in
`03ffe4d595` on November 17, 2025 for non-blocking MCP startup: the
session published an empty manager, startup initialized that same object
while holding the write lock, and readers waited for initialization.
`7cd2e84026` on February 19, 2026 removed that two-phase initialization
in favor of constructing a fresh manager and swapping it in, explicitly
noting that `Option` or `OnceCell` could replace the placeholder design.
Hot reload later reused the existing lock to publish a replacement, but
I found no indication that the lock was introduced to guarantee
in-flight tool calls finish before refresh or shutdown.

Terminal shutdown remains separate from refresh: it aborts startup
prewarming and active tasks before shutting down the current manager, so
tool calls may be interrupted and no model WebSocket work continues
after shutdown. Focused regression coverage exercises pending tool-list
cancellation, deferred refresh, and startup-prewarm shutdown.

marksteinbrick-oai a71e040df5 [codex-analytics] add extensible feature thread sources (#27063)
## Why
- `ThreadSource` currently defines a closed set of core-owned values
- Product features also create threads for background or scheduled work
- Adding every product-specific value to the core enum would require
repeated `codex-rs` protocol changes
- Feature-backed values let product callers provide precise attribution
while preserving the existing core classifications

## What Changed
- Adds `ThreadSource::Feature(String)` for app-owned thread source
values
- Represents all app-server v2 thread sources as scalar strings, so a
feature source is supplied as `"automation"`
- Persists and emits the feature's plain string label, so `"automation"`
produces `thread_source="automation"` in analytics
- Keeps `user`, `subagent`, and `memory_consolidation` as explicit
core-owned values and regenerates the app-server schemas and TypeScript
bindings

## Verification

pakrym-oai f3c1283411 Pair thread environment settings (#26687)
## Why

Thread cwd and environment selections are a single logical setting in
core: updating one without the other can silently desynchronize the
next-turn execution context. This change makes that relationship
explicit in the internal thread settings flow while preserving the
existing app-server public API shape.

## What changed

- Moved the cwd/environment pair through internal
`ThreadSettingsOverrides.environment_settings` instead of a top-level
internal `cwd` field.
- Kept `thread/settings/update` public params unchanged, with app-server
translating top-level `cwd` into the paired internal settings shape.
- Moved `Op::UserInput` environment overrides into thread settings so
user turns and settings updates use the same core path.
- Updated core, app-server, MCP, memories, sample, and test callsites to
construct the paired settings shape.

## Verification

- `git diff --check`
- Local test run starting after PR creation.

Eric Traut 479a14cf59 [2 of 2] Finish moving goal runtime to extension (#26548)
## Stack

1. [#26547](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/26547) - [1 of 2] Align
goal extension with core behavior
2. [#26548](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/26548) - [2 of 2] Move
goal runtime to extension

## Why

This PR completes the switch of the goal behavior to the
extension-backed runtime and removes the old core goal implementation.

## What Changed

- Installs the goal extension for app-server `ThreadManager` sessions.
- Routes app-server thread goal `get`, `set`, and `clear` through
`GoalService`.
- Uses thread-idle lifecycle emission after goal resume and snapshot
ordering so the extension can decide whether to continue the goal.
- Forwards extension goal updates through a FIFO async app-server
notification path so backpressure does not drop them or reorder updates.
- Keeps review turns from enabling goal runtime behavior.
- Plans extension tools before dynamic tools so built-in goal tool names
keep their old precedence when goals are enabled.
- Removes the old core goal runtime, core goal tool handlers, and core
goal tool specs.
- Updates tests that were coupled to the core-owned goal runtime while
leaving the legacy `<goal_context>` compatibility path in core for old
threads.
- Removes the stale cargo-shear ignore now that `codex-goal-extension`
is used by the workspace.
- Keeps realtime event matching exhaustive after removing the old
goal-specific realtime text path.


## Validation

- Ran manual `/goal` runs in TUI. Validated time accounting matched
wall-clock time and goal lifecycle state transitions.

Ahmed Ibrahim 8ac304c299 [codex] Support model-defined reasoning efforts (#26444)
## Summary
- accept non-empty model-defined reasoning effort values while
preserving built-in effort behavior
- propagate the non-Copy effort type through core, app-server, TUI,
telemetry, and persistence call sites
- preserve string wire encoding and expose an open-string schema for
clients
- update model selection and shortcut behavior for model-advertised
effort values

## Root cause
`ReasoningEffort` gained a string-backed custom variant, so it could no
longer implement `Copy` or rely on derived closed-enum serialization.
Existing consumers still moved effort values from shared references and
assumed a fixed built-in value set.

## Validation
- `just fmt`
- Local tests and compilation were not run per request; relying on CI.

Adam Perry @ OpenAI e64b469bbc Route AGENTS.md loading through environment filesystems (#26205)
## Why

Workspace-specific `AGENTS.md` loading needs to use the selected
environment filesystem so remote workspaces and child agents read
instructions from their actual environment instead of the host
filesystem. The app-server should report the same instruction sources
the initialized thread actually loaded, rather than independently
rescanning configuration and filesystem state.

## What changed

- Introduce `LoadedAgentsMd` to retain ordered user, project, and
internal instructions with their provenance.
- Load and canonicalize workspace `AGENTS.md` paths through the primary
`EnvironmentManager` environment, then render the loaded instructions
when constructing turn context.
- Expose cached loaded instruction sources from initialized threads and
use them for app-server start, resume, and fork responses.
- Preserve global `CODEX_HOME` loading and separator behavior while
excluding empty project files that did not supply model-visible
instructions.
- Add integration coverage for CLI injection, selected-environment
provenance and rendering, empty environment selection, and cached
sources on loaded-thread resume.

## Validation

jif d46a98d31a Bridge host-loaded skills into the skills extension (#26172)
## Why

The skills extension needs to become the path that exposes local host
skills without losing the behavior already owned by core skill loading.
Host skill discovery is not just `$CODEX_HOME/skills`: it also includes
config layers, bundled-skill settings, plugin roots, runtime extra
roots, and the filesystem for the selected primary environment.

Rather than making the extension reload host skills and risk drifting
from that authoritative load, this PR bridges the already-loaded
per-turn skills outcome into the extension. That lets the extension
advertise host skills and inject explicit `$skill` prompts while
preserving the same roots, disabled/hidden state, rendered paths, and
environment-backed file reads that the legacy path uses.

## What Changed

- Adds `HostLoadedSkills` in `core-skills` to wrap the turn's
`SkillLoadOutcome` and read `SKILL.md` through the filesystem that
loaded that skill.
- Stores `HostLoadedSkills` in turn extension data for normal turns and
review turns, so the skills extension can consume the loaded host
catalog without reloading it.
- Adds `HostSkillProvider` under `ext/skills/src/provider/host.rs`,
mapping host-loaded skill metadata into the skills-extension
catalog/read contract.
- Registers the host provider by default from
`codex_skills_extension::install()`.
- Preserves host skill metadata such as dependencies, disabled state,
hidden-from-prompt policy, and slash-normalized display paths.
- Passes host-loaded skills through `SkillListQuery` and
`SkillReadRequest` so explicit skill invocation reads only resources
from the loaded host catalog.
- Adds integration coverage for a real legacy
`$CODEX_HOME/skills/.../SKILL.md` skill being listed and injected
through the installed extension.

## Testing

- Added `installed_extension_loads_host_skills_from_legacy_roots` in
`ext/skills/tests/skills_extension.rs`.
- `just test -p codex-skills-extension`

Michael Bolin 52b359b249 core: stop threading SandboxPolicy through exec (#25700)
## Why

#25450 attempts a broad `SandboxPolicy` removal across several unrelated
surfaces, which makes it hard to review and still leaves new helper code
moving legacy policies around. This PR is a narrower alternative:
migrate only the exec-side Windows sandbox plumbing so the review can
focus on one production path and one compatibility boundary.

The goal is to stop threading `SandboxPolicy` through exec code without
expanding the migration into app-server, protocol, telemetry, config, or
session behavior.

## What changed

- Removed `ExecRequest::compatibility_sandbox_policy()`.
- Changed the Windows restricted-token and elevated filesystem override
helpers to accept `PermissionProfile` plus the split filesystem/network
policies instead of a `SandboxPolicy`.
- Kept the remaining legacy projection local to the writable-root
comparison that still needs to compare split policy behavior against the
legacy Windows backend model.
- Rejected restricted split filesystem policies that still grant
full-disk writes before using the Windows restricted-token backend,
preserving the previous clear-failure behavior for profiles that project
to `ExternalSandbox`.
- Updated the Windows sandbox override tests to exercise the new call
shape and cover the full-write split-profile regression.

jif-oai 3cf6f08da5 session: keep startup prewarm aligned with resolved multi-agent runtime (#25841)
## Why

Follow-up to #25722. Startup prewarm builds a preview `TurnContext`
before the first real turn so it can precompute the initial prompt and
tool surface. After the per-thread runtime work landed, that preview
path still recomputed multi-agent mode from `model_info` and feature
defaults instead of reusing the runtime the session had already resolved
from persisted metadata or inheritance.

That could leave the prewarmed session primed for a different
multi-agent mode than the first real turn, which is especially risky
because collaboration tool exposure depends on
`turn_context.multi_agent_version`.

## What changed

- In the `TurnMultiAgentRuntime::Preview` path, prefer
`Session::multi_agent_version()` when it is already known.
- Only fall back to `model_info.multi_agent_version` and feature
defaults when the session has not resolved a runtime yet.
- Keep preview mode read-only: this still avoids storing a runtime
during startup prewarm.

## Testing

- Not run (small runtime-selection follow-up)

Michael Bolin d6748f741a feat: gate unified exec zsh fork composition (#24979)
## Why

`shell_zsh_fork` and unified exec need to remain independently
controllable for enterprise rollouts, but we also need a third mode that
composes them. That composed mode is intended to preserve unified exec
command lifecycle support while letting the zsh fork provide more
accurate `execv(2)` interception.

Enabling `unified_exec_zsh_fork` by itself is intentionally not
sufficient. It is a composition gate, not a dependency-enabling
shortcut:

- `unified_exec` selects the PTY-backed unified exec tool.
- `shell_zsh_fork` opts into the zsh fork backend.
- `unified_exec_zsh_fork` only allows those two already-enabled modes to
be composed so local zsh unified exec commands can launch through the
zsh fork.

This separation is deliberate. Enterprises and staged rollouts must be
able to enable or disable unified exec and zsh-fork independently. If
`unified_exec_zsh_fork` implied either dependency, then enabling one
under-development composition flag would silently activate a shell
backend that the configured feature set left disabled.

This PR introduces only the configuration and planning gate for that
composition. Existing `shell_zsh_fork` behavior continues to use the
standalone shell tool unless the new composition feature is explicitly
enabled alongside both dependencies.

## What Changed

- Added the under-development feature flag `unified_exec_zsh_fork`.
- Added `UnifiedExecFeatureMode` so the three input feature flags
collapse into `Disabled`, `Direct`, or `ZshFork` mode before tool
planning.
- Updated tool selection so zsh-fork composition requires
`unified_exec`, `shell_zsh_fork`, and `unified_exec_zsh_fork`.
- Kept the existing standalone zsh-fork shell tool behavior when only
`shell_zsh_fork` is enabled.
- Updated config schema output for the new feature flag.

## Verification

- Added feature and tool-config coverage for the new gate.
- Added planner coverage proving `shell_zsh_fork` remains standalone
until composition is explicitly enabled.
- Ran focused tests for `codex-features`, `codex-tools`, and the
affected `codex-core` planner case.

Owen Lin cf0911076f store and expose parent_thread_id on Threads (#25113)
## Why

This PR
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/24161#discussion_r3325692763
revealed a subagent data modeling issue, where we overloaded
`forked_from_id` to also mean `parent_thread_id`. That's incorrect since
guardian and review subagents can be a subagent and NOT fork the main
thread's history.

The solution here is to explicitly store a new `parent_thread_id` on
`SessionMeta`, alongside `forked_from_id` which already exists. While
we're at it, also expose it in the app-server protocol on the `Thread`
object.

A thread->subagent relationship and a fork of thread history are
orthogonal concepts.

## What Changed

- Added top-level `parent_thread_id` persistence on `SessionMeta` and
runtime/session plumbing through `SessionConfiguredEvent`,
`CodexSpawnArgs`, `SessionConfiguration`, `ThreadConfigSnapshot`,
`TurnContext`, and `ModelClient`.
- Made turn metadata, request headers, analytics, and subagent-start
events read the separate runtime/top-level parent field instead of
deriving general parent lineage from `SessionSource` or
`forked_from_thread_id`.
- Passed parent lineage separately at delegated subagent, review,
guardian, agent-job, and multi-agent spawn construction sites;
copied-history fork lineage remains derived only from `InitialHistory`.
- Persisted and exposed parent lineage through rollout/thread-store
projections and app-server v2 `Thread.parentThreadId`.
- Updated app-server README text and regenerated app-server schema
fixtures for the additive `parentThreadId` response field.

Owen Lin fc9cf62efb Add subagent lineage metadata for responsesapi (#24161)
## Why

We recently added `forked_from_thread_id` which lets us trace where a
thread's _context_ comes from, but we also want to understand subagent
lineage (e.g. which parent thread spawned this subagent? what kind of
subagent is it?) which is orthogonal.

This PR adds `parent_thread_id` and `subagent_kind` to the
`x-codex-turn-metadata` header sent to ResponsesAPI.

## What changed

- Adds `parent_thread_id` and `subagent_kind` to core-owned
`x-codex-turn-metadata`.
- Restores persisted `SessionSource` and `ThreadSource` from resumed
session metadata so cold-resumed subagent threads keep their lineage on
later Responses API requests.
- Centralizes parent-thread extraction on `SessionSource` /
`SubAgentSource` and reuses it in the Responses client, analytics, agent
control, and state parsing paths.
- Extends reserved-key, git-enrichment, thread-spawn, and app-server v2
metadata coverage for the new lineage fields.

## Verification

- Not run locally per request.
- Added focused coverage in `core/src/turn_metadata_tests.rs` and
`app-server/tests/suite/v2/client_metadata.rs`.

Ahmed Ibrahim 5577a9e148 [codex] Add model tool mode selector (#25031)
## Why
Some models need to select their code-execution behavior through model
catalog metadata. Models without that metadata must continue to follow
the existing `CodeMode` and `CodeModeOnly` feature flags, including when
a newer server sends an enum value this client does not recognize.

## What changed
- add optional `ModelInfo.tool_mode` metadata with `direct`,
`code_mode`, and `code_mode_only`
- treat omitted and unknown wire values as `None`
- resolve `None` from the existing feature flags
- carry the resolved `ToolMode` directly on `TurnContext`, outside
`Config`
- use the resolved value for turn creation, model switches, review
turns, tool planning, and code execution

## Coverage
- add protocol coverage for omitted, known, and unknown enum values
- add focused coverage for flag fallback and explicit metadata
overriding feature flags
- add core integration coverage that fetches remote model metadata
through `/v1/models` and verifies the outbound `/responses` tools for
explicit `direct` and `code_mode_only` selectors

Michael Bolin e7dda8070e Surface filesystem permission profiles in prompt context (#23924)
## Summary
Some permission profiles can encode filesystem reads that should remain
unavailable to the agent. Before this change, the model-visible context
and automatic approval review prompt summarized the effective
permissions as a legacy sandbox mode, which can omit permission-profile
filesystem entries from escalation decisions.

For example, a profile can grant workspace access while denying a
private subtree across every workspace root:

```toml
default_permissions = "restricted-workspace"

[permissions.restricted-workspace.workspace_roots]
"/Users/alice/project" = true
"/Users/alice/other-project" = true

[permissions.restricted-workspace.filesystem]
":minimal" = "read"

[permissions.restricted-workspace.filesystem.":workspace_roots"]
"." = "write"
"private" = "deny"
"private/**" = "deny"
```

The context window now describes the workspace roots and effective
filesystem side of the `PermissionProfile` directly, with deny entries
marked as non-escalatable:

```xml
<environment_context>
  <cwd>/Users/alice/project</cwd>
  <shell>zsh</shell>
  <filesystem><workspace_roots><root>/Users/alice/project</root><root>/Users/alice/other-project</root></workspace_roots><permission_profile type="managed"><file_system type="restricted"><entry access="read"><special>:minimal</special></entry><entry access="write"><path>/Users/alice/project</path></entry><entry access="write"><path>/Users/alice/other-project</path></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><path>/Users/alice/project/private</path></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><path>/Users/alice/other-project/private</path></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><glob>/Users/alice/project/private/**</glob></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><glob>/Users/alice/other-project/private/**</glob></entry></file_system></permission_profile></filesystem>
</environment_context>
```

Managed requirements can impose the same kind of deny-read restriction:

```toml
[permissions.filesystem]
deny_read = [
  "/Users/alice/project/private",
  "/Users/alice/project/private/**",
]
```

The automatic approval review prompt also receives the parent turn's
denied-read context, so review decisions can account for the active
permission profile.

## What Changed
- Render the effective filesystem profile in `<environment_context>`,
including profile type, filesystem entries, workspace roots, and
non-escalatable deny entries.
- Persist effective `workspace_roots` in `TurnContextItem` so
resumed/replayed context does not have to bind `:workspace_roots`
through legacy `cwd` fallback.
- Add explicit permission instructions that denied reads are policy
restrictions, not escalation targets.
- Pass the parent turn's denied-read context into automatic approval
reviews.
- Add targeted coverage for prompt rendering, workspace-root
materialization, replay context, and review prompt context.
- Keep the prompt-context test expectations platform-aware so the same
filesystem rendering assertions pass on Unix and Windows paths.

## Testing
- `just test -p codex-core
context::environment_context::tests::serialize_environment_context_with_full_filesystem_profile`
- `just test -p codex-core
context::environment_context::tests::turn_context_item_filesystem_uses_workspace_roots_instead_of_cwd`
- `just test -p codex-core
context::permissions_instructions::permissions_instructions_tests::builds_permissions_from_profile_with_denied_reads`
- `just fix -p codex-core`

I also attempted `just test -p codex-core`; the changed prompt-context
tests passed, but the full local run did not complete cleanly in this
sandboxed macOS environment due unrelated user-shell `CODEX_SANDBOX*`
expectations and integration-test timeouts.

Owen Lin 1911021c0e Add forked_from_thread_id turn metadata (#24160)
## Why

When Codex calls responsesapi, we currently send `session_id`,
`thread_id`, and `turn_id` among other things as
`client_metadata["x-codex-turn-metadata"]`. This PR adds
`forked_from_thread_id` which helps explain the "lineage" of a forked
thread.

## What's changed

- Track the immediate history source copied into a forked thread through
thread/session creation, including subagent and review turn metadata
paths.
- Include `forked_from_thread_id` in Codex turn metadata while
preventing turn-scoped Responses API client metadata from overwriting
Codex-owned lineage fields.
- Add coverage for fork lineage in turn metadata and the app-server
Responses API request path.

Shijie Rao 370b13afc9 Honor client-resolved service tier defaults (#23537)
## Why

Model catalog responses can now advertise a nullable
`default_service_tier` for each model. Codex needs to preserve three
distinct states all the way from config/app-server inputs to inference:

- no explicit service tier, so the client may apply the current model
catalog default when FastMode is enabled
- explicit `default`, meaning the user intentionally wants standard
routing
- explicit catalog tier ids such as `priority`, `flex`, or future tiers

Keeping those states distinct prevents the UI from showing one tier
while core sends another, especially after model switches or app-server
`thread/start` / `turn/start` updates.

## What Changed

- Plumbed `default_service_tier` through model catalog protocol types,
app-server model responses, generated schemas, model cache fixtures, and
provider/model-manager conversions.
- Added the request-only `default` service tier sentinel and normalized
legacy config spelling so `fast` in `config.toml` still materializes as
the runtime/request id `priority`.
- Moved catalog default resolution to the TUI/client side, including
recomputing the effective service tier when model/FastMode-dependent
surfaces change.
- Updated app-server thread lifecycle config construction so
`serviceTier: null` preserves explicit standard-routing intent by
mapping to `default` instead of internal `None`.
- Kept core responsible for validating explicit tiers against the
current model and stripping `default` before `/v1/responses`, without
applying catalog defaults itself.

## Validation

- `CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 cargo test -p codex-app-server model_list`

viyatb-oai 40ad7be2b5 core: refresh active permission profiles at runtime (#22931)
## Why

Once a named permission profile is selected, runtime state has to keep
that profile identity intact instead of collapsing back to anonymous
effective permissions. The session refresh path also needs to rebuild
profile-derived network proxy state so active profile switches take
effect consistently.

## What changed

- Preserve the active permission profile through session updates.
- Rebuild profile-derived runtime/network configuration when the active
profile changes.
- Keep the runtime path aligned with the current session configuration
APIs.
- Tighten the affected tests, including the Windows delete-pending
memory-file case that was intermittently tripping CI.

## Stack

1. **This PR**: runtime/session/network propagation for active
permission profiles.
2. [#23708](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/23708): TUI selection
plumbing and guardrail flow.
3. [#21559](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/21559): profile-aware
`/permissions` menu and custom profile display.

jif-oai 05e171094d Remove ToolsConfig from tool planning (#22835)
## Why

`codex-tools` is meant to hold reusable tool primitives, but
`ToolsConfig` had become a second copy of core runtime decisions instead
of a small shared contract. It carried provider capabilities, auth/model
gates, permission and environment state, web/search/image feature gates,
multi-agent settings, and goal availability from core into `codex-tools`
([definition](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/22dd9ad3929253ed24d7ee4f10f238e95ab25f37/codex-rs/tools/src/tool_config.rs#L97),
[stored on each
`TurnContext`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/22dd9ad3929253ed24d7ee4f10f238e95ab25f37/codex-rs/core/src/session/turn_context.rs#L87)).
Every session/context variant then had to build and mutate that snapshot
before assembling tools.

This PR removes that master object instead of renaming it. Tool planning
now reads the live `TurnContext`, where `codex-core` already owns those
decisions, while `codex-tools` keeps only reusable primitives and a
generic `ToolSetBuilder`/`ToolSet` accumulator.

## What Changed

- Removed `ToolsConfig` / `ToolsConfigParams` from `codex-tools`; the
crate keeps the shared helpers that still belong there, including
request-user-input mode selection, shell backend/type resolution,
`UnifiedExecShellMode`, and `ToolEnvironmentMode`.
- Replaced config-snapshot planning with `ToolRouter::from_turn_context`
and a `spec_plan` pipeline over `CoreToolPlanContext`, deriving provider
capabilities, auth gates, model support, feature gates, environment
count, goal support, multi-agent options, web search, and image
generation from the authoritative turn state.
- Added generic `codex_tools::ToolSetBuilder` / `ToolSet`, plus the
small core adapter needed to accumulate `CoreToolRuntime` values and
hosted model specs.
- Added the `tool_family::shell` registration module and moved
shell/unified-exec/memory accounting call sites to read the narrow
per-turn fields directly.
- Narrowed `TurnContext` to the remaining explicit per-turn fields
needed by planning: `available_models`, `unified_exec_shell_mode`, and
`goal_tools_supported`.
- Reworked MCP exposure and tool-search setup so deferred/direct MCP
behavior is driven by the current turn rather than a precomputed config
snapshot.
- Replaced the large expected-spec fixture tests with focused
behavior-level coverage for shell tools, environments, goal and
agent-job gates, MCP direct/deferred exposure, tool search,
request-plugin-install, code mode, multi-agent mode, hosted tools, and
extension executor dispatch.

pakrym-oai f2368b7de6 [codex] Trim unused TurnContextItem fields (#22709)
## Why

`TurnContextItem` is the durable baseline used to reconstruct context
diffs across resume/fork. Most of the old persisted-only fields on it
are no longer read, so keeping them in rollout snapshots adds schema
surface and state that can drift without affecting reconstruction.

`summary` is the exception: older Codex versions require it to
deserialize `turn_context` records, so keep writing a default
compatibility value until that schema surface can be removed safely.

## What changed

- Removed the unused persisted fields from `TurnContextItem`: trace ids,
user/developer instructions, output schema, and truncation policy.
- Kept `summary` with a compatibility comment and made
`TurnContext::to_turn_context_item` write `ReasoningSummary::Auto`
instead of live turn state.
- Updated rollout/context reconstruction fixtures for the retained
summary field.

validation for Responses-compatible namespace values.
- Thread the resolved namespace into `ToolsConfig` for normal turns and
review turns.
- Wrap MultiAgentV2 tool specs and registry names in the configured
namespace when namespace tools are supported, while falling back to the
plain tool names when they are not.

Michael Bolin 8a5306ff88 app-server: use permission ids and runtime workspace roots (#22611)
## Why

This PR builds on [#22610](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22610)
and is the app-server side of the migration from mutable per-turn
`SandboxPolicy` replacement toward selecting immutable permission
profiles by id plus mutable runtime workspace roots.

Once permission profiles can carry their own immutable
`workspace_roots`, app-server no longer needs to mutate the selected
`PermissionProfile` just to represent thread-specific filesystem
context. The mutable part now lives on the thread as explicit
`runtimeWorkspaceRoots`, while `:workspace_roots` remains symbolic until
the sandbox is realized for a turn.

## What Changed

- Replaced the v2 permission-selection wrapper surface with plain
profile ids for `thread/start`, `thread/resume`, `thread/fork`, and
`turn/start`.
- Removed the API surface for profile modifications
(`PermissionProfileSelectionParams`,
`PermissionProfileModificationParams`,
`ActivePermissionProfileModification`).
- Added experimental `runtimeWorkspaceRoots` fields to the thread
lifecycle and turn-start APIs.
- Threaded runtime workspace roots through core session/thread
snapshots, turn overrides, app-server request handling, and command
execution permission resolution.
- Kept session permission state symbolic so later runtime root updates
and cwd-only implicit-root retargeting rebind `:workspace_roots`
correctly.
- Updated the embedded clients just enough to send and restore the new
thread state.
- Refreshed the generated schema/TypeScript artifacts and the app-server
README to match the new contract.

## Verification

Targeted coverage for this layer lives in:

- `codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2/tests.rs`
- `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/thread_start.rs`
- `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/thread_resume.rs`
- `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/turn_start.rs`
- `codex-rs/core/src/session/tests.rs`

The key regression checks exercise that:

- `runtimeWorkspaceRoots` resolve against the effective cwd on thread
start.
- Profile-declared workspace roots are excluded from the runtime
workspace roots returned by app-server.
- A turn-level runtime workspace-root update persists onto the thread
and is returned by `thread/resume`.
- A named permission profile selected on one turn remains symbolic so a
later runtime-root-only turn update changes the actual sandbox writes.
- A cwd-only turn update retargets the implicit runtime cwd root while
preserving additional runtime roots.
- The protocol fixtures and generated client artifacts stay in sync with
the string-based permission selection contract.

Michael Bolin 3c6d727810 permissions: resolve profile identity with constraints (#22683)
## Why

This PR is the invariant-cleanup layer that follows the workspace-roots
base merged in [#22610](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22610).

#22610 adds `[permissions.<id>.workspace_roots]` and keeps runtime
workspace roots separate from the raw permission profile, but its
in-memory representation is intentionally transitional: `Permissions`
still carries the selected profile identity next to a constrained
`PermissionProfile`. That makes APIs such as
`set_constrained_permission_profile_with_active_profile()` fragile
because the id and value only mean the right thing when every caller
keeps them in sync.

This PR introduces a single resolved profile state so profile identity,
`extends`, the profile value, and profile-declared workspace roots
travel together. The next PR,
[#22611](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22611), builds on this by
changing the app-server turn API to select permission profiles by id
plus runtime workspace roots.

## Stack Context

- #22610, now merged: adds profile-declared `workspace_roots`, runtime
workspace roots, and `:workspace_roots` materialization.
- This PR: replaces the parallel active-profile/profile-value fields
with `PermissionProfileState`.
- #22611: switches app-server turn updates toward profile ids plus
runtime workspace roots.
- #22612: updates TUI/exec summaries to show the effective workspace
roots.

Keeping this separate from #22611 is deliberate: reviewers can validate
the internal state invariant before reviewing the app-server protocol
migration.

## What Changed

- Added `ResolvedPermissionProfile::{Legacy, BuiltIn, Named}` and
`PermissionProfileState`.
- Typed built-in profile ids with `BuiltInPermissionProfileId`.
- Moved selected profile identity and profile-declared workspace roots
into the resolved state.
- Replaced `Permissions` parallel profile fields with one
`permission_profile_state`.
- Removed `set_constrained_permission_profile_with_active_profile()`
from session sync paths.
- Kept trusted session replay/`SessionConfigured` compatibility through
explicit session snapshot helpers.
- Updated session configuration, MCP initialization, app-server, exec,
TUI, and guardian call sites to consume `&PermissionProfile` directly.

## Review Guide

Start with `codex-rs/core/src/config/resolved_permission_profile.rs`; it
is the new invariant boundary. Then review
`codex-rs/core/src/config/mod.rs` to see how config loading records
active profile identity and profile workspace roots. The remaining
call-site changes are mostly mechanical fallout from
`Permissions::permission_profile()` returning `&PermissionProfile`
instead of `&Constrained<PermissionProfile>`.

## Verification

The existing config/session coverage now constructs and asserts through
`PermissionProfileState`. The workspace-root config test also asserts
that profile-declared roots are preserved in the resolved state, which
is the behavior #22611 relies on when runtime roots become mutable
through the app-server API.

Michael Bolin c25d905f61 permissions: support workspace roots in profiles (#22610)
## Why

This is the configuration/model half of the alternative permissions
migration we discussed as a comparison point for
[#22401](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22401) and
[#22402](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22402).

The old `workspace-write` model mixes three concerns that we want to
keep separate:
- reusable profile rules that should stay immutable once selected
- user/runtime workspace roots from `cwd`, `--add-dir`, and legacy
workspace-write config
- internal Codex writable roots such as memories, which should not be
shown as user workspace roots

This PR gives permission profiles first-class `workspace_roots` so users
can opt multiple repositories into the same `:workspace_roots` rules
without using broad absolute-path write grants. It also starts
separating the raw selected profile from the effective runtime profile
by making `Permissions` expose explicit accessors instead of public
mutable fields.

A representative `config.toml` looks like this:

```toml
default_permissions = "dev"

[permissions.dev.workspace_roots]
"~/code/openai" = true
"~/code/developers-website" = true

[permissions.dev.filesystem.":workspace_roots"]
"." = "write"
".codex" = "read"
".git" = "read"
".vscode" = "read"
```

If Codex starts in `~/code/codex` with that profile selected, the
effective workspace-root set becomes:
- `~/code/codex` from the runtime `cwd`
- `~/code/openai` from the profile
- `~/code/developers-website` from the profile

The `:workspace_roots` rules are materialized across each root, so
`.git`, `.codex`, and `.vscode` stay scoped the same way everywhere.
Runtime additions such as `--add-dir` can still layer on later stack
entries without mutating the selected profile.

## Stack Shape

This PR intentionally stops before the profile-identity cleanup in
[#22683](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22683) so the base review
stays focused on config loading, workspace-root materialization, and
compatibility with legacy `workspace-write`.

The representation in this PR is therefore transitional: `Permissions`
carries enough state to distinguish the raw constrained profile from the
effective runtime profile, and there are still call sites that must keep
the active profile identity and constrained profile value in sync. The
follow-up PR replaces that with a single resolved profile state
(`ResolvedPermissionProfile` / `PermissionProfileState`) that keeps the
profile id, immutable `PermissionProfile`, and profile-declared
workspace roots together. That follow-up removes APIs such as
`set_constrained_permission_profile_with_active_profile()` where
separate arguments could drift out of sync.

Downstream PRs then build on this base to switch app-server turn updates
to profile ids plus runtime workspace roots and to finish the
user-visible summary behavior. Reviewers should judge this PR as the
workspace-roots foundation, not as the final in-memory shape of selected
permission profiles.

## Review Guide

Suggested review order:

1. Start with `codex-rs/core/src/config/mod.rs`.
This is the main shape change in the base slice. `Permissions` now
stores a private raw `Constrained<PermissionProfile>` plus runtime
`workspace_roots`. Callers use `permission_profile()` when they need the
raw constrained value and `effective_permission_profile()` when they
need a materialized runtime profile. As noted above,
[#22683](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22683) replaces this
transitional shape with a resolved profile state that keeps identity and
profile data together.

2. Review `codex-rs/config/src/permissions_toml.rs` and
`codex-rs/core/src/config/permissions.rs`.
These add `[permissions.<id>.workspace_roots]`, resolve enabled entries
relative to the policy cwd, and keep `:workspace_roots` deny-read glob
patterns symbolic until the actual roots are known.

3. Review `codex-rs/protocol/src/permissions.rs` and
`codex-rs/protocol/src/models.rs`.
These add the policy/profile materialization helpers that expand exact
`:workspace_roots` entries and scoped deny-read globs over every
workspace root. This is also where `ActivePermissionProfileModification`
is removed from the core model.

4. Review the legacy bridge in
`Config::load_from_base_config_with_overrides` and
`Config::set_legacy_sandbox_policy`.
This is where legacy `workspace-write` roots become runtime workspace
roots, while Codex internal writable roots stay internal and do not
appear as user-facing workspace roots.

5. Then skim downstream call sites.
The interesting pattern is raw-vs-effective access: state/proxy/bwrap
paths keep the raw constrained profile, while execution, summaries, and
user-visible status use the effective profile and workspace-root list.

## What Changed

- added `[permissions.<id>.workspace_roots]` to the config model and
schema
- added runtime `workspace_roots` state to `Config`/`Permissions` and
`ConfigOverrides`
- made `Permissions` profile fields private and replaced direct mutation
with accessors/setters
- added `PermissionProfile` and `FileSystemSandboxPolicy` helpers for
materializing `:workspace_roots` exact paths and deny-read globs across
all roots
- moved legacy additional writable roots into runtime workspace-root
state instead of active profile modifications
- removed `ActivePermissionProfileModification` and its app-server
protocol/schema export
- updated sandbox/status summary paths so internal writable roots are
not reported as user workspace roots

## Verification Strategy

The targeted tests cover the behavior at the layers where regressions
are most likely:
- `codex-rs/core/src/config/config_tests.rs` verifies config loading,
legacy workspace-root seeding, effective profile materialization, and
memory-root handling.
- `codex-rs/core/src/config/permissions_tests.rs` verifies profile
`workspace_roots` parsing and `:workspace_roots` scoped/glob
compilation.
- `codex-rs/protocol/src/permissions.rs` unit tests verify exact and
glob materialization over multiple workspace roots.
- `codex-rs/tui/src/status/tests.rs` and
`codex-rs/utils/sandbox-summary/src/sandbox_summary.rs` verify the
user-facing summaries show effective workspace roots and hide internal
writes.

I also ran `cargo check --tests` locally after the latest stack refresh
to catch cross-crate API breakage from the private-field/accessor
changes.
