## Why
Terminal `response.incomplete` errors discard reported token usage. Counting that usage as a new context baseline can also double-count input and trigger unnecessary compaction on the next turn.
## What changed
- Carry the response ID and valid reported usage with incomplete-response errors.
- Record usage for sampling and foreground compaction in cumulative totals, rollout records, budgets, and token-usage contributors without replacing the context baseline. Preserve the original terminal error, including when accounting exhausts the budget or cancellation races the error.
- Charge incomplete background compaction requests to the rollout budget without publishing foreground token usage.
- Ignore missing or malformed usage rather than estimating it.
## Testing
Extend coverage for SSE and WebSocket incomplete responses, rollout usage records, compaction accounting, deferred token-count events, and token-usage contributors. Add regressions for unnecessary compaction on the next turn and background compaction publishing foreground usage.
GitOrigin-RevId: bf1ee6df3912052ab7c19e1c6af8ad3dc4b07675
## Why
Incomplete responses such as `max_output_tokens` were classified as stream errors, allowing retries and compaction model fallback after the response had hit its output limit.
## What changed
Introduce `ResponseIncomplete` errors that preserve the server-provided reason and stop stream processing immediately. Make these errors non-retryable and stop compaction without falling back to the selected model. Record incomplete responses separately in sampler failure metrics.
## Testing
Add regression tests that verify incomplete responses surface a terminal error without retries over SSE and WebSocket, and that compaction stops without retrying or switching models for both local and remote compaction.

## What changed
- Add the disabled-by-default `output_token_replay` feature to request `output.encrypted_content` from OpenAI providers.
- Preserve encrypted message and tool-call output, message and function-call status, and output-text `annotations` and `logprobs` through history and replay. Update the generated protocol schemas and SDK types.
- Strip output ciphertext from requests to other providers while retaining it in stored history, including after replay is disabled. Remove encrypted content from memory extraction inputs.
## Testing
Add integration coverage for the feature/provider combinations, metadata replay across follow-up requests, and history preservation when resuming with replay disabled.
GitOrigin-RevId: 77729a021b6771933402aebe74ece8eb39c057e2
## What changed
Add `TurnEnvironmentRequests` to carry environment requests together with their fallback working directory. Update thread settings overrides and active turn settings to accept requests, constructing `TurnEnvironmentSelection` values in the receiving thread before validation and runtime use.
Adapt app-server callers, reviewer settings, and existing tests to supply requests or explicitly convert runtime selections back into requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8028f804bebe3fde553f57bb450f6dca3970cc4a
## Why
Fast mode previously gated both Fast and Ultra Fast, preventing policies from allowing one while disabling the other.
## What changed
- Add the default-enabled `features.ultrafast_mode` flag and enforce it independently of `features.fast_mode` in service-tier selection, requests, and agent prewarming.
- Filter TUI service-tier commands and selections by the corresponding policy and model catalog support.
- Report `supportsIndependentSpeedModes: true` from `configRequirements/read` and update the protocol schemas and generated bindings. Retain the shared Fast gate when connecting to older servers that omit this capability.
- Preserve legacy cloud speed denials by translating `rbac-fast-mode` fragments with `fast_mode = false` into a denial of both modes, while retaining higher-priority enterprise overrides.
## Testing
Add coverage for all four Fast/Ultra Fast policy combinations in requirements responses and request routing, agent prewarm inheritance, TUI command visibility and saved selections, and legacy cloud denial normalization and override precedence.
GitOrigin-RevId: 147e08524c4b228ea9d46b25a9f8aa64c359e169
## What changed
Move base instructions from the top-level `instructions` field into a prefixed `developer` message in `input` for standard Responses requests, matching Responses Lite. Remove the field from HTTP and WebSocket request types and assign instruction messages stable IDs derived from the thread and instruction text.
## Testing
Extend standard and Responses Lite tests to cover instruction message serialization, stable IDs, and resume consistency. Update WebSocket tests to verify that changed instructions trigger a full request without `previous_response_id`.
GitOrigin-RevId: e2de4b8e30a9339377fac133ceda981abd1a112b
## What changed
Allow Responses-compatible providers to configure live web access and remote compaction under `model_providers.<id>.capabilities`:
```toml
[model_providers.custom.capabilities]
external_web_access = false
remote_compaction = "v2"
```
`external_web_access = false` keeps hosted web search from accessing the live web. `remote_compaction` accepts `v2` to send `compaction_trigger` items through the Responses endpoint, or `unsupported` to use local compaction. Omitted capabilities retain existing provider defaults.
## Testing
Add unit coverage for preserving unspecified defaults and a request-snapshot scenario verifying cached web search and V2 compaction for a custom provider.
GitOrigin-RevId: fbcc4870aa51c112af575d711679a3941d1e7878
## What changed
Remove `initial_messages` from `SessionConfiguredEvent` and the corresponding schema. Stop attaching replay history to startup events for resumed or rejoined threads, and remove `InitialHistory::get_event_msgs`.
## Testing
Update the MCP resume test to verify persisted tool events through `load_history`, and retain coverage that resumed requests include prior conversation items.
GitOrigin-RevId: 54b72bc44423c9b1ef2051891ef392c0ede32fe5
## Why
Concurrent Linux test spawns can inherit writable descriptors for executable fixtures, preventing those fixtures from being executed even after the writing test closes its descriptor.
## What changed
Replace direct executable fixture writes and copies across the Rust tests with `codex_utils_cargo_bin::write_executable` and `copy_executable`. These existing helpers complete writes and copies in separate processes on Linux.
Remove the empty temporary inode before creating fake bubblewrap executables, and stage tampered bubblewrap bytes in a separate data file before copying them into the executable fixture. Add the required test dependencies.
GitOrigin-RevId: c875c83088731a4933ef1574e8d79d8cecc12f54
## Why
Destination-only filtering stripped raw tool result metadata and MCP attribution when the built-in OpenAI provider used a custom endpoint.
## What changed
Add a runtime-only `include_internal_metadata` grant to `ModelProviderInfo` and enable it for the built-in OpenAI provider. Apply the provider grant or the existing first-party HTTPS destination check to both HTTP and WebSocket Responses requests.
Keep the grant out of serialized configuration and schemas, and default it to false for providers received through remote configuration. Providers without the grant retain the existing destination filtering.
## Testing
Update HTTP and WebSocket tests to expect metadata at overridden OpenAI endpoints. Cover provider grants, destination filtering, MCP attribution on requests, and the grant's exclusion from TOML serialization and configuration.
GitOrigin-RevId: 53aad6fb4d52cdfa9c79c6d92fe87383e1d0d1ef
## Why
Saved model selections can outlive their catalog entries. Removing GPT-5.4 needs to preserve a migration path without applying it to other providers that may still support the same model slug.
## What changed
- Remove `gpt-5.4` from the bundled catalog and `openai.gpt-5.4` from the Bedrock catalogs, including GovCloud.
- Add fallback migration prompts to GPT-6 Sol for saved GPT-5.4 selections on OpenAI and Amazon Bedrock. Scope fallback migrations, including the existing GPT-5.4 Mini migration, to their owning providers while honoring catalog metadata.
- Update tests that depend on bundled GPT-5.4 metadata to use GPT-5.5 or explicit model overrides.
## Testing
Extend migration tests to cover catalog metadata precedence, acknowledged targets, missing or hidden replacements, and preserving the provider while saving the replacement model and its default reasoning effort. Update Bedrock catalog assertions and picker snapshots.
GitOrigin-RevId: f739795da423b9622db2a416be6c52b01b8e7a71
## What changed
Add `ModelRequestContributor` and `ModelResponseInterceptor` to the extension API. Contributors can add filtered `client_metadata` without overwriting existing or reserved fields and create interceptors for individual requests.
Wire contributors into HTTP and WebSocket requests, distinguishing generation from warmup. Apply response interceptors in registration order before tracing and response bookkeeping so transformed output is recorded consistently. Interceptors can inspect, buffer, or transform events, with stream ownership carrying request state and cancellation.
## Testing
Add tests for metadata protection, incremental event transformation, interceptor ordering, upstream cancellation, and consistency between delivered output, traces, and WebSocket bookkeeping. Integration tests cover output gating and interruption over HTTP and WebSocket, including a contributor that bypasses gating for warmup requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: d4bc1745d2cacf8636728dbc0a58ab9f250e9392
## Why
Startup prewarm waited for tool discovery before opening its WebSocket connection. Slow MCP startup therefore delayed connection setup even though the handshake could proceed independently.
## What changed
- Run the WebSocket handshake concurrently with tool capture, then send `generate=false` with the discovered tools and finalized request metadata.
- Include model and effective service-tier routing hints in preconnect, including the inherited tier for spawned subagents. Omit routing hints for guardian reviewer requests.
- Recover authentication failures during preconnect and switch to HTTP fallback on `426 Upgrade Required`.
## Testing
Add and extend regression coverage for handshake overlap with delayed MCP discovery, cancellation before warmup, finalized Responses Lite tool metadata, socket reuse and reconnection, service-tier changes and inheritance, and authentication recovery during preconnect.
GitOrigin-RevId: ecb53540765df8227e55e79910a13a05260a4c8d
## What changed
Serialize custom reasoning effort values that parse as `u64` as JSON numbers in API requests. For example, `model_reasoning_effort = "64"` now sends `reasoning.effort` as `64`. Keep named values and custom values that cannot parse as `u64` as strings.
## Testing
Expand the request integration test to cover configured named effort, zero, a positive integer, an unknown name, a negative value, and an integer exceeding `u64`.
GitOrigin-RevId: 18ad03a1cd97dfa3f1a3cc49a43b3f7ca7d9b657
## Why
Providers need to serve Codex model metadata independently of their inference endpoint. A custom inference `base_url` alone should not opt API-key sessions into remote catalog discovery.
## What changed
- Add `model_catalog_url` to provider configuration and thread-config serialization. Fetch the full catalog URL with provider authentication, headers, query parameters, and `client_version`, while preserving inference routing.
- Require an explicit catalog URL for API-key discovery with a custom base URL. Keep default OpenAI discovery on the Codex backend, and apply `api_key_model_discovery` gating to provider API keys and cached catalogs.
- Include the catalog URL in cache identity so different catalogs do not share cached metadata.
- Limit explicitly configured catalog responses to 1 MiB, reject redirects, and suppress URL and response diagnostics that could expose credentials.
## Testing
Add coverage for catalog configuration round-trips, query encoding, authentication and header reuse, cache identity and discovery gating, oversized responses, and redirect rejection without credential forwarding. Add an integration test verifying that catalog model metadata and instructions reach conversation requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7f6ac5eec257278685e1867a6bcebae6514a365a
Preserve known error classifications, including BioPolicy, while falling back to Other for unknown values so saved sessions can still be read.
Add optional gateway OAuth settings to model provider configuration.

GitOrigin-RevId: 64bcf45ca042efca7645c798db3746375426b0fe
## Why
Resuming a thread after disabling reasoning effort overrides still sent saved `configuration_update` items until compaction. Disabling the feature should also apply to requests built from existing history.
## What changed
Pass the `ReasoningEffortOverride` feature state into `ModelClient` and filter `configuration_update` items from request input when disabled. Preserve persisted history and other input items while using the request-level reasoning effort.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for resumed threads, compaction, and WebSocket warmup and turn requests. Verify that saved updates remain in history and `agent_message` items remain in request input.
GitOrigin-RevId: aac3257da1ca38a0744807c4f7cb12565bd7fe53
## Why
An explicit `service_tier = "flex"` could be dropped when fast mode was disabled or the model catalog did not advertise Flex, even though Flex is an API request option.
## What changed
- Preserve configured `flex` through core session settings, TUI tier resolution, and request construction regardless of fast-mode or catalog support.
- Omit `service_tier` from Amazon Bedrock requests, including with custom catalogs, because Bedrock only supports the implicit default tier.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for Flex configured at startup or through thread settings, connected thread startup, and TUI turn submission. Update review coverage to expect Flex with fast mode disabled, and verify that both Bedrock providers omit `service_tier`.
GitOrigin-RevId: 98f2761bdd780603839ebfec75cb983a5d55e554
## What changed
- Add an optional `WorkspaceRoutingResolver` to `AuthManager` and pass session configuration into routing lookups. Callers without a resolver retain existing routing behavior.
- Apply resolved backend origins and account routing overrides to eligible ChatGPT Responses HTTP requests and WebSocket handshakes. Preserve endpoint paths, validate routing values, and reject HTTP redirects for routed requests, including `NO_CONSTRAINT` routes.
- Key cached WebSocket connections by destination, routing header, and auth revision. Rebuild request setup after credential refreshes and reject account changes during setup or routing discovery.
- Serialize routing lookups per session and retain whether the session has previously been routed.
## Testing
Add tests for path preservation, provider exclusions, concurrent routing lookups, unavailable resolvers, workspace mismatches, redirect rejection, and credential refresh or account changes during request setup.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2b6609019e84a315745c94858955f3f16426fe7f
## What changed
Represent images in `ContentItem` and `FunctionCallOutputContentItem` with `ImageReference::Inline`, flattened to preserve the existing `image_url` wire format. Update image producers and consumers and regenerate app-server schemas and SDK artifacts.
Preserve the Python SDK's `InputImageContentItem` and `InputImageFunctionCallOutputContentItem` class names during generation.
## Testing
Add a regression test for stable Python image class names and adapt existing image tests to the shared representation.
GitOrigin-RevId: c38a780ac3314c2ac2deb3afc1b93b94b6f93fec
## Why
Running root threads retained their startup global instructions, so edits to global `AGENTS.md` files did not take effect during an active session.
## What changed
- Reload global instructions when capturing model-request context, including after tools within the same turn. Apply changes without repeating unchanged instructions or rediscovering repository instructions when the environment and trust level are unchanged.
- Preserve the last successful global instructions on read failures, suppress recurring warnings until recovery, and clear instructions when their source is removed or blank.
- Serialize refreshes and allow cancellation without blocking subsequent requests.
- Give new subagents the parent's applied instruction snapshot and update Guardian reviewer reuse to account for refreshed instructions.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for live edits and removal, read failures and recovery, warning suppression, cancellation, subagent inheritance, and Guardian reviewer reuse. Update resume, fork, and compaction tests to verify refreshed instructions.
GitOrigin-RevId: f7e9b399740fa4f45e482c070f6e901ee7cf85cd
## Why
Remote compaction already uses the normal Responses API, leaving the legacy `/responses/compact` runner unused.
## What changed
- Remove the legacy runner, endpoint client, request types, analytics variant, and obsolete test helpers and snapshots.
- Move tool-output trimming and its metadata tests into `compact_remote_history` for reuse by remote compaction v2.
- Consolidate retained-history filtering in the v2 implementation and remove redundant `RemoteCompactionV2` settings from tests.
## Testing
Extend the retained-history unit test to explicitly check that hook prompts survive compaction.
GitOrigin-RevId: 999bb1391aa22c3c281d6a96f98817d6c9e46ed9
## Why
Saved model selections can outlive their bundled catalog entries and still need migration guidance.
## What changed
- Remove `gpt-5.2` and `gpt-5.4-mini` from the bundled model catalog.
- Preserve migration from saved `gpt-5.4-mini` selections to `gpt-5.6-luna` when the old model is absent, while respecting catalog-provided migration metadata.
- Update tests and snapshots to use current models or explicit test fixtures, and remove the obsolete prompt fixture.
## Testing
Extend migration tests to cover catalog metadata precedence, saved selections, replacement model and reasoning-effort persistence, acknowledged prompts, and missing or hidden migration targets.
GitOrigin-RevId: 82beea504cc4a15699677c28a61ec0939af3069c
## 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 under-development `powershell_shell_version` feature flag.
- When enabled for a single local PowerShell environment, query the selected
shell executable and include its major/minor version in
`<environment_context>`.
- Cache version lookups, bound command execution and output, and report when a
previously visible version becomes unavailable.
## Testing
- Cover environment-context diffs when the shell version appears or disappears.
- Verify on Windows that the version is model-visible only when the feature is
enabled.
GitOrigin-RevId: 3ec8e80425ec3c193134dc1b69f61ef09ede375e
## Why
A provider auth command can fail during initial credential resolution, leaving
no cached authentication. A subsequent `401` should still give the configured
provider one bounded opportunity to recover.
## What changed
- Treat configured external authentication with an empty cache as eligible for
unauthorized recovery.
- Allow authority refresh to invoke the external provider when no prior auth is
cached, while preserving the existing requirements for managers without an
external provider.
## Testing
Added unit and client coverage for a provider command that fails initially and
succeeds during `401` recovery.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7cab9a03f90ce29b412be8fbd97b297acdad4482
## What changed
- Add the under-development `content_item_kinds` feature, disabled by default.
- Strip content item classifications from Responses input when the feature is
disabled while preserving other passthrough metadata.
## Testing
- Add coverage that disables the feature and verifies requests omit content item
kinds without removing the turn ID.
GitOrigin-RevId: f938feb2895d766d979b1666fc7b97fd128fe8a7
## What changed
- Preserve each contextual fragment's `ContentItemKind` when converting it to a response message.
- Classify user text, image, and audio content as `user.text`, `user.image`, and `user.audio` in their original order.
- Give additional context key-specific `additional_content.<key>` kinds and retain annotations on generated messages such as image resize notices and interrupted-turn markers.
## Testing
- Expand request-level coverage to verify content-kind annotations across mixed-modality turns, additional context, reminders, budgets, skills, model switching, subagents, and image resizing.
GitOrigin-RevId: 671e4545f39b335525c60d2a5df4608e8068cafc
## Why
App-server logs can be persisted or included in submitted diagnostics, so credentials used by model providers, authentication refreshes, and attestation requests must not appear in diagnostic output.
## What changed
- Add `RedactedString`, which preserves serialization and string access while replacing debug output with `<redacted>`.
- Use it for model-provider bearer tokens, header and query values, authentication command arguments, and attestation tokens.
- Avoid logging JSON-RPC error payloads and parser or authentication errors that may echo credentials; retain safe context such as error codes and categories.
## Testing
- Add an app-server regression test that exercises provider credentials, refreshed authentication tokens, and attestation tokens, then verifies none appear in persisted SQLite or submitted diagnostic logs.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8c50408adf94d93847658b1320682cf3b637d2cc
## Why
External tool events may need to enter thread history without a preceding function call and therefore do not have a `call_id`.
## What changed
- Allow `function_call_output` items to omit `call_id` and carry optional `name` and `namespace` fields.
- Preserve named standalone outputs during history normalization and agent forks while retaining existing pairing behavior for outputs with a `call_id`.
- Accept, persist, and forward these outputs through `thread/inject_items`, and update the app-server schemas and documentation.
## Testing
- Cover paired and standalone JSON round trips, history normalization, agent forks, and injected thread history.
GitOrigin-RevId: a3258163a7dc93777c7c3023116fe204819bdbb0
## What changed
- Add `additional_developer_instructions` to managed requirements and expose it through `configRequirements/read` as `additionalDeveloperInstructions`, independently of ordinary developer instructions.
- Include the managed instructions in model context, emit explicit replacement or removal messages when requirements change, and preserve the current value across compaction, resume, and agent forks without duplication.
- Reject managed instructions whose rendered context exceeds 10,000 estimated tokens.
## Testing
- Cover requirements layering and API serialization, context updates and removal, size validation, repeated model requests, compaction and resume, rollout migration, and agent forks.
GitOrigin-RevId: bc0b70fb7988944c2f68176dff55f5ed61eb46c8
## What changed
- Set `parallel_tool_calls` for regular and remote compaction prompts without consulting model metadata.
- Remove `supports_parallel_tool_calls` from `ModelInfo`, the bundled model catalog, and related fixtures.
- Preserve the existing Responses Lite behavior that disables parallel tool calls at request construction.
GitOrigin-RevId: 49552bdf97e71fa57325abb49f8adc0c88f1401a
## 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.
GitOrigin-RevId: dd9b5528d76ec650c019e97af420bc13190ea86a
## What changed
- Add fractional Unix creation times to locally authored user, developer, agent, and tool-output items when they enter durable conversation history.
- Preserve any creation time already supplied with an item across subsequent requests, remote compaction, and resumed history.
## Testing
- Cover timestamp assignment and preservation in session, client, tool, agent-spawn, and remote-compaction tests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 431d1770b9746005c808bc0a43953845166d68ad
## What changed
- Set `store` to `false` for every Responses request, including requests sent
through Azure providers.
- Remove the provider-specific storage check and simplify request construction.
- Update the Azure request test to verify that storage is disabled while
prefixed item IDs remain unchanged.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1c71cb80880058cb26789112f03269b73f0645b9
## What changed
- Wrap response items with optional harness-owned metadata while keeping the persisted response payload shape backward compatible.
- Store compacted-history metadata in an aligned sidecar and reject malformed sidecars.
- Carry metadata through history normalization, compaction, resume, fork, truncation, migration, and rollout recording without sending it to model providers.
## Testing
- Cover legacy rollout compatibility, metadata serialization and validation, compaction retention, and resume/fork reconstruction.
GitOrigin-RevId: 17a6127c9048ff984cb4df4d97c0751a38c29f5f
## What changed
- Add `codex-history` for model-history and persisted-rollout domain types, including `RolloutItem`, `RolloutLine`, `CompactedItem`, and initial/resumed history state.
- Re-export the persisted types from `codex-rollout` and update consumers to use the new crate boundary instead of `codex-protocol`.
- Preserve existing rollout serialization, including legacy numeric compacted-window IDs.
## Testing
- Add `codex-history` tests for rollout JSON round trips, compacted-history compatibility, persisted history modes, and multi-agent version selection.
GitOrigin-RevId: 944daa9297ddd231d3aebbdcb05fff4adf8b4e1b
## What changed
- Add an `x-codex-routing-hint` header containing the request model and, when selected, the service tier.
- Send the hint on Responses HTTP requests, remote compaction requests, and WebSocket handshakes, including prewarm connections.
- Limit the header to Codex-backend authentication with the OpenAI provider, omitting it for API-key and provider-specific credential paths.
## Testing
- Cover routing hints for HTTP, remote compaction, WebSocket streaming, and tiered prewarming, along with the credential paths where the header must be absent.
GitOrigin-RevId: d8d415d7fadddecf9a132d05920b856a35ac9960
## What changed
- Make the skills extension own the catalog prompt templates and rendering path.
- Remove the duplicate core fallback that injected available skills into initial context.
- Update core integration tests to install the skills extension explicitly when they expect model-visible skill context.
GitOrigin-RevId: bbe6b15c4e776a09c98b7f4166426fe4e58434ba
## What changed
- Preserve `encrypted_function_args` on function calls so an empty list can mark plaintext collaboration arguments across request replay.
- Deliver `spawn_agent`, `send_message`, and `followup_task` payloads as structured plaintext agent messages when that marker is present; retain encrypted delivery otherwise.
- Redact plaintext collaboration arguments from tool and communication logs, and omit the metadata when sending requests to non-OpenAI providers.
## Testing
- Cover serialization of empty encrypted-argument metadata and plaintext versus encrypted subagent message delivery.
- Verify plaintext tool arguments are redacted and provider-specific metadata is removed from non-OpenAI requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 64db98ff0b61a3af2f04ed609292363f2e2362a8
## What changed
- Insert the `host_skills` world-state section before the permissions section
when permissions are present.
- Verify that skill metadata appears before `<permissions instructions>` in the
rendered developer message.
GitOrigin-RevId: e9fc62f498c384e841fc34ef679850557645f989
## What changed
- Add the `supports_standalone_web_search` model-provider setting, defaulting to `false`, and preserve it in remote thread configuration.
- Enable the standalone `web.run` tool for opted-in custom Responses providers when web search is enabled and the runtime provider supports it.
- Send standalone search requests through the custom provider's endpoint and authentication.
## Testing
- Cover opt-in, default-off, disabled-search, and unsupported-provider behavior.
- Verify custom-provider search request routing and authorization through the app server.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7c5f96b0ce924ad2b9715c45bfc635e89fc39cff
## What changed
- Add `StartThreadOptions::new` to provide the standard configuration for a new thread.
- Make `ThreadManager::start_thread` the single thread-start entry point and migrate callers from the previous convenience methods.
- Derive default environment selections when `environments` is `None`, while preserving explicit selections, including an empty list.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8977dc11aed54c5e1215a81eaed2b2cf5fc6087a
## Why
ChatGPT token refresh requests need to follow the same configured routing policy as other authentication traffic, including environments that use the system proxy.
## What changed
- Require an `AuthRouteConfig` throughout login, logout, token refresh, personal access token, and agent identity flows.
- Build auth HTTP clients directly from that configuration instead of falling back to a default HTTP client when routing configuration is absent.
## Testing
- Add an integration test that refreshes a token through a cached system-proxy route and verifies the proxy receives the expected request.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7d54ab3219939a49921c51faf08cd4c2eabca51c
## What changed
- Assign IDs to client-created response items in every session, including streamed items, forked history, compaction results, and non-OpenAI provider requests.
- Preserve server-provided IDs and stable generated IDs across persisted and resumed conversations while continuing to omit unprefixed server IDs from outbound requests.
- Retire `features.item_ids` as a configurable feature. Existing configuration and CLI toggles remain accepted as compatibility no-ops.
## Testing
- Cover default ID assignment, persistence and resume behavior, remote compaction, provider requests, WebSocket requests, and removed-feature compatibility.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7a09e2d07d2606c2ef1e8e2283d36cb555557eae
## What changed
- Add `shell_environment_policy.filters`, mapping environment-variable patterns to `include` or `exclude`, while continuing to accept the legacy `exclude` and `include_only` arrays.
- Merge filter keys case-insensitively across config layers so higher-precedence entries can override individual patterns. Switching representations replaces the other representation instead of combining them.
- Reject mixed, duplicate, or malformed filter definitions in enabled layers, config writes, and reloads, while retaining the previous session configuration when a reload is invalid.
- Make config-manager reads and writes representation-aware and preserve existing formatting when updating individual policy values.
## Testing
Add coverage for parsing, schema constraints, layered merging, validation and diagnostics, config writes, override metadata, and invalid session reloads.

## What changed
- Add `audio` to the model input modalities exposed by the protocol and generated app-server schemas.
- Preserve audio in prompts for models that advertise audio input, and replace historical audio with an omission marker for models that do not.
## Testing
- Cover prompt normalization with and without audio support.
- Extend the model-switching integration test to verify that switching from a multimodal model to a text-only model strips prior image and audio content.

## What changed
- Model permission instructions as a world-state section keyed by a stable hash of their rendered developer message.
- Re-emit permission context when its model-visible contents change or the retained fragment is missing, while avoiding duplicates when matching instructions already exist in history, including bundled developer messages.
- Normalize CRLF line endings when hashing world-state fragments so equivalent content produces the same snapshot.
## Testing
- Add snapshot coverage for unchanged, changed, absent, and unknown permission state.
- Cover bundled retained permissions and restored world-state baselines during rollout reconstruction.

## Why
Audio variants were available in the user-input protocol but were replaced with unsupported-input placeholders instead of being sent to the model.
## What changed
- Serialize audio data URLs as `input_audio` content and convert local `wav`, `mp3`, `m4a`, `webm`, and `ogg` files to labeled data URLs.
- Validate and canonicalize base64 audio before requests, enforce the 50 MiB input limit, and replace invalid, unsupported, or oversized audio with explanatory text.
- Preserve audio attachments when mapping response items back to user-message events and document the app-server input variants.
## Testing
- Add unit coverage for local-file conversion, data URL validation, size and format errors, event mapping, and attachment extraction.
- Add client tests that verify data URL and local audio payloads sent to the Responses API.
