## What changed
- Share a lazily registered runtime across threads, model discovery, and extension clients when `runtime_agent_instances` is enabled, while honoring each thread's authentication mode and credential owner.
- Bind model catalogs to the effective provider and authentication context while preserving cache policy and live API-key discovery settings.
- Resolve credentials, routing, and transport policy together for each request. Preserve proxy and TLS settings, validate runtime account selectors, and prevent pooled connections from crossing runtime identities.
- Accept supported ChatGPT subdomains when selecting the registration environment.
## Testing
Add integration coverage for shared runtime registration, dual-header and assertion-only modes, disabled and third-party providers, credential replacement, subagents, and delegated review. Add coverage for catalog cache policy and runtime-aware connection reuse.

## What changed
Move permanent agent message board deletion from `codex-core` into the app server's thread-store cleanup callback. Keep board cleanup active when the board feature is disabled, and run it before optional Guardian evidence-board cleanup.
Remove the message board extension dependency from `codex-core` and retain `codex-message-board` only as a development dependency. Update the core test harness to install the app server's cleanup callback.
GitOrigin-RevId: 61813bbdcd8b57073b8c249e1f771e3fb0ea061e
## What changed
Move the board host adapter and `install_agent_message_board` from `codex-core` to `codex-app-server`, using public core runtime interfaces. Update extension registration, test callers, dependencies, and installation documentation to use the new location.
Format `CHANNEL_POST` notification payloads in the host adapter and retain recognition of legacy board notices in core. Expose `MULTI_AGENT_V2_NAMESPACE_DESCRIPTION` for host extensions to share with native tools.
GitOrigin-RevId: 679b5751de102bff80e6b9d4b0728a84fbdedd85
## Why
Board notifications were skipped when recipients had no active turn accepting mailbox delivery. Queue them through the ordinary agent-message path so idle recipients can receive them in a later turn.
## What changed
- Submit board notices as `Op::InterAgentCommunication` with `trigger_turn` disabled, preserving normal mailbox scheduling without reopening finalized answers.
- Hold a residency guard through dispatch of submitted agent messages to coordinate delivery with agent eviction.
- Update board tool descriptions to describe the host's notification queueing and wake policy.
## Testing
Update local and HTTP board scenarios to cover queued idle notices, delivery after a finalized answer, and mailbox delivery before a pending tool call. Extend residency coverage to verify that submission waits for the eviction gate and queued messages survive eviction.
GitOrigin-RevId: a77137fc40932f5903852e14742483844e07c9bc
## What changed
- Replace `unwrap()` calls with descriptive `expect()` messages in rollout budget and web search scenario tests.
- Add a targeted `clippy::expect_used` exemption in `BackendSessions::set_preference_key`, documenting that preference keys are assigned only after backend registration.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5ff63e9abb4ea728371874ed121043e9e00438a0
Replace `unwrap()` with descriptive `expect()` messages when enabling denial reconsideration and setting the read-only permission profile in Guardian tests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9e5e32ac94889e063d5a721fa6fde8e5c871747d
## Why
Setting granular `sandbox_approval` to `false` also blocked approval requests for dangerous commands such as `rm -f`, even when they requested no additional permissions. Reviewing a dangerous command should remain possible within the existing permission profile.
## What changed
Allow heuristic dangerous-command approval requests with `sandbox_approval = false` when execution stays within current permissions. Do not propose reusable execution-policy amendments for these approvals, since reusable allow rules can bypass the sandbox on later calls.
Keep escalation requests, explicit policy rules, and Windows execution without required sandbox protection subject to their existing approval restrictions. Clarify the meaning of `sandbox_approval` in the protocol and generated schemas.
## Testing
Add coverage for POSIX and Windows approval decisions, approval and denial of deletion commands, preservation of read-only restrictions, and separate dangerous-command approval after turn-scoped or session-scoped write grants.
GitOrigin-RevId: 90adc137c7b7d3f3ee68efb1f6bea531229e7834
## Why
A timeout during denial reconsideration replaced an already completed Guardian denial with a timeout outcome, losing the original assessment.
## What changed
Keep the original denial when reconsideration times out, including its risk level, user authorization, and rationale. Discard the review session while preserving cancellation behavior.
## Testing
Add a reconsideration timeout scenario that verifies the original assessment and denial rationale are preserved and the requested file write remains blocked.
GitOrigin-RevId: 448a6d2d1e779c58076091384fe1215b8c02bde2
## Why
Waking an evicted worker from a sibling should preserve the worker's effective permissions, including runtime grants, denials, and network restrictions that a profile name alone cannot reconstruct.
## What changed
Retain the worker's effective configuration during eviction. On sender-driven reloads, restore its permissions and approvals reviewer while keeping the current wake configuration for other settings.
## Testing
Add regression coverage comparing loaded and reloaded workers with read-only, named, and legacy permission settings. Verify that worker permissions, active profiles, and network policies survive sibling wakeups and that parent and sender permissions remain unchanged.
GitOrigin-RevId: ffc353154535362cfbfbbe2b7fc43e08b42cf9b9
## Why
Existing chats can retain reasoning effort and service tier selections that a refreshed provider catalog no longer supports.
## What changed
- Apply fresh provider catalogs to saved settings in open and resumed chats, and normalize incoming settings before capturing the next turn.
- Replace unsupported ranked reasoning efforts with the highest supported level at or below the selection. For unsupported `ultra` or `persistent` selections, use the model's supported default when available. Reset unsupported `priority` and `ultrafast` service tiers to `default`.
- Retire incompatible reasoning effort pins using each step's captured model metadata, preserving running steps and the live pin during compaction.
- Publish catalog updates only from successful provider responses for the current identity, and refresh retained originator catalogs through the periodic refresh worker.
## Testing
Add coverage for setting correction, reasoning effort pins, resumed chats, stale queued settings, retained history, refresh failures, identity changes, and isolated originator notifications.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2ef4605c4acba98db3fe9d0328e2752084e900a2
## What changed
Add the disabled-by-default `guardian_denial_reconsideration` feature to reconsider a synchronous Guardian denial once before publishing the final decision. The follow-up uses the same review session, evidence, model settings, and original deadline, without compacting the retained context.
Only a valid second assessment replaces the denial. Invalid or failed follow-ups keep the original denial and discard the review session; cancellation and timeout retain their normal outcomes.
Allow a custom developer message through `auto_review.experimental_denial_reconsideration_prompt`, limited to 1,000 UTF-8 bytes. Omitted or blank values use the built-in prompt, which grants no new authorization and preserves the security policy.
## Testing
Add scenario coverage for feature gating, unchanged approvals, reconsidered approvals and denials, invalid assessments, failed follow-ups, custom prompts, and retained context. Extend cancellation coverage to reconsideration and config tests to prompt normalization and byte-limit validation.
GitOrigin-RevId: 61c45d5a948e3e5684c4b4048d6e90fd3f1f2476
## What changed
- Gate GIF output behind `features.image_generation_animation`, disabled by default.
- Accept `gif` options for generation and editing, with optional `frame_count` and `frame_duration_ms` controls. Use `gif: {}` for API defaults.
- Preserve animated output with `.gif` filenames and `image/gif` data URLs while providing a still preview to the model.
- Add guidance for simple animations and spritesheet-based GIF edits.
## Testing
Add integration coverage for GIF generation and editing, explicit frame controls and API defaults, saved animation bytes, and still-preview replay across follow-up turns.
GitOrigin-RevId: 08afa0316ae3675921652157836191a649f563cf
## What changed
Restore `code_mode_only_strict_3p_tools` as an opt-in feature under development. When the effective tool mode is Code Mode Only, keep eligible MCP/app and client-supplied dynamic tools deferred and callable through `exec`, regardless of `deferLoading`, `omit_tools_from`, or namespace exclusion and direct-only settings.
Preserve hidden tools, tool policy restrictions, and built-in tool classification. Log conflicting exposure settings without adding warnings to the model prompt. Leave other effective tool modes unaffected.
## Testing
Add coverage for exposure overrides, model mode overrides, built-in name collisions, and hidden or denied tools. Update integration coverage for app access restrictions and MCP catalog refreshes that preserve the cached prompt prefix while `exec` uses the current tools.
GitOrigin-RevId: 0cb085ba9d23bebc48dbc3fa298b982de0a66c47
## Why
Search discovery must account for the active model's supported tools while honoring host search restrictions. Automatic fallback must also preserve the provider that owns existing browsing references.
## What changed
- Resolve search from model metadata, client configuration, and managed requirements, exposing the selected provider's tools.
- Discover hosted search with the model's supported tools and carry the discovered invocation context into calls.
- Allow native fallback for eligible discovery failures only when search policy permits it and hosted search has not already been used. Do not replay failed hosted invocations through native search.
- Keep native fallback references on native search across later turns, discovery recovery, and resume. Release unused fallback offers and coordinate background calls to prevent conflicting provider use.
## Testing
Add app-server and core scenario coverage for provider selection, discovery failures, search restrictions, reference continuity, resume, and concurrent background search. Include a snapshot covering discovery and call history across a model switch.
GitOrigin-RevId: 0f22605722daaa424c4fa34660654cde5a6db049
## What changed
- Add optional `ModelInfo.web_search_provider` metadata with `standalone` and `search_mcp` values.
- Add `tools.client_search_provider` and expose its value as `client_search_provider` in app-server configuration responses, with updated JSON schemas, TypeScript types, and Python bindings.
- Register the `hosted_search_policy` feature flag as under development and disabled by default.
GitOrigin-RevId: 263c3f81a61b50f8bb53ff338b9de8186db316e0
## Why
An MCP server's environment permissions can change after a tool step captures its context. Guardian reviews of direct MCP calls could therefore miss denied paths present in the permissions used to prepare the call.
## What changed
Pass the prepared server environment's sandbox context through MCP approvals and use it to build Guardian's permission evidence, including denied paths and globs resolved for that environment. Keep the sandbox context out of serialized approval actions.
## Testing
Add a regression test that updates a remote MCP owner's permissions after the step starts and verifies that Guardian sees the owner's denied temporary directory. Extend the approval JSON test to verify that supplying sandbox context preserves the serialized action shape.
GitOrigin-RevId: cab0d7c60112a97adf98e5548cdc066b260bb073
## What changed
Mark `code_mode_only_strict_3p_tools` as removed and stop overriding MCP/app and dynamic tool exposure settings. Code Mode Only now honors `omit_tools_from`, namespace exclusions, direct-only namespaces, and dynamic tool deferral settings without strict-mode exceptions.
## Testing
Update coverage for exposure settings, hidden and policy-denied tools, app access restrictions, and deferred MCP catalog refreshes that preserve the cached prefix while `exec` uses the current tools.
GitOrigin-RevId: 356ccd572f952b5a80ff9a0c31085330b9fe6e8b
## What changed
- Record connection attempts and durations as `codex.websocket.connect` and `codex.websocket.connect.duration_ms`, labeled with `success`, `reauth`, and the configured `product_sku` when present.
- Detect reauthentication by comparing the current auth revision with the last successful connection, preserving that revision across connection resets. Include `auth.reauth` in connection logs and traces.
- Populate session telemetry with the configured product SKU.
## Testing
Extend tests to check reauthentication labels after account switches, product SKU labels for restored sessions, and failed-handshake counts, durations, and labels.
GitOrigin-RevId: 53a38b4460ab9021058dfe2fe104d0441993b18a
## What changed
Add an integration test that verifies environment connection events follow the active turn's environment selection:
- A deselected remote environment emits no connection events for that thread.
- Thread startup and reselecting an already connected environment do not replay connection events.
- A reconnected environment notifies threads that select it without duplicate connection events.
Reuse the remote exec-server initialization helper to exercise reconnection.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7e1e630af2e3f051b3367e7cfcb4a0acc0771edc
## What changed
Expose `InheritedSessionId` so a host can supply a root session ID through `ExtensionDataInit` when starting a fresh child thread. The child retains its distinct thread ID, and the inherited session ID is persisted in rollout metadata and restored on resume.
Reject inherited session IDs for resumed, forked, or native agent threads, and reject an inherited session ID that equals the child thread ID.
## Testing
Add an integration test covering distinct child identity, inherited session metadata, and restoration after shutdown and resume.
GitOrigin-RevId: e3462433f9d8a0bba24251ee2b6d5329557ddb31
## Why
A completed environment hook can be held up by a queued output-read RPC when its executor is busy, delaying the hook's decision.
## What changed
- Race pushed process events against output polling so a complete, ordered event stream can deliver the hook's output and exit status immediately. Retain polling as a fallback when events are incomplete or unavailable.
- Include launch-parameter preparation in the hook's timeout budget.
## Testing
Extend the executor ownership test to hold the owner's RPC slot while a `PreToolUse` hook finishes. Cover both allowing and blocking commands, checking that the decision arrives before the slot is released and that only the owning executor receives the hook.
GitOrigin-RevId: bc80b99a2a32379e3c2eafefe6db66a6a20f4048
## What changed
Once Responses requests fall back to HTTP after exhausting WebSocket retries or receiving HTTP 426, keep subsequent requests and turns on HTTP for the remainder of the session. Clear cached WebSocket state and remove background recovery probes, recovery trials, and their acknowledgement timeout.
## Testing
Update fallback tests to verify that a second turn stays on HTTP without additional WebSocket attempts. Adjust retry and `Retry-After` request-count assertions to exclude background probes.
GitOrigin-RevId: a4f6376604527c14db8d60f79bd21c3aaf289f70
## Why
Injected agent messages need to reach active sampling before stale tool calls execute, while messages queued around a final answer must wait for the next task without requesting another response.
## What changed
- Include injected `agent_message` items in mailbox preemption checks when the matching turn still accepts mail and `DeferMailboxPreemption` is disabled.
- Treat injected agent messages as queue-only mail so they do not reopen delivery after a final answer or force a follow-up response.
## Testing
Add a streaming scenario and context snapshot covering idle injection, active sampling preemption, deferred delivery around a final answer, and preservation of message payloads and ordering before the next task.
GitOrigin-RevId: 70f49cbe5074725c11e1fcb33eea05e0e92e17f7
## Why
Hosts need to apply subagent-style capability restrictions without changing a thread's session attribution, agent lineage, or permission profile.
## What changed
Add the public `RestrictRootCapabilities` marker to thread startup extension data. Capture the restriction once at startup and apply it alongside the restrictions native subagents already receive. Hosts must supply the marker again when cold-resuming a restricted thread.
Use the restriction to gate user-input and plugin-install requests, async user messaging, legacy MCP tool approvals, and Full Access MCP form input. Exclude inherited user messages from Guardian's retained authorization context for restricted threads, including after cold resume.
## Testing
Add coverage for host-restricted tool registration, MCP approval rejection, Full Access form-input handling, and inherited instruction authorization after cold resume. Update handler tests to exercise the shared restriction flag.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4d6d7102a20dc747431c7511a74a204c773e8420
## Why
Host-owned runtimes skip controller rollout-budget accounting. Give hosts an optional callback to account for inference spending and signal budget exhaustion.
## What changed
- Add `AgentUsageAccounting`, `AgentUsageReport`, and `UsageAccountingDecision`, captured at startup and supported by host child spawn reservations.
- Await per-response usage reports with thread and turn attribution, including provider budget units and foreground and background compaction usage.
- Map host exhaustion to `SessionBudgetExceeded` and accounting failures to fatal errors without retrying inference. Preserve the original error for incomplete responses.
- Keep controller accounting unchanged and leave accounting disabled for host-owned runtimes without a provider.
## Testing
Add coverage for usage attribution, child accounting, budget exhaustion, nonretryable accounting failures, incomplete responses, and compaction reporting, including background usage charged once to its originating turn.
GitOrigin-RevId: 887703f50fe882497e4e8cb33259072935ec82e0
## What changed
Enable `multi_agent_v2` and the new `agent_message_board_mcp` feature to automatically start a temporary, tree-scoped HTTP MCP message board without plugin or endpoint configuration. The MCP feature defaults off and takes precedence over `agent_message_board`.
Share board state across parent and child agents while retaining each caller's host binding. Keep the server alive while participating threads remain, and serialize board tool calls through the MCP server configuration.
## Testing
Extend the HTTP board integration scenario to cover automatic discovery, parent-child message sharing, child subscriptions and posts after the parent unloads, serialized mutations, and absence of a persistent board database.
GitOrigin-RevId: 613183c14b2ab67dfb1aaf3a3abf338376d1cc05
## What changed
Add `AgentRuntimeOwnership::Host` and an `AgentTurnAdmission` provider so hosts can acquire execution capacity before runtime tasks run, including root turns. Require the provider at startup and retain its execution guard for the task lifetime. Controller ownership remains the default; host ownership skips controller rollout-budget accounting, budget reminders, and subagent roster context.
Keep pending admission interruptible without blocking input submission. Report admission failures through the turn lifecycle, record accepted input before exposing the error, and unwind task setup such as review mode. Preserve recoverable input during suspension. On interruption, skip prompts that still require a `UserPromptSubmit` hook rather than recording them without inspection.
## Testing
Add integration tests for missing-provider startup cleanup, denial and immediate retry, steering during admission, cancellation, execution guard lifetime, submit-hook handling, suspension recovery, and review-mode cleanup. Add a context snapshot verifying retained input reaches the next admitted turn.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9ee85fad2ecfbfb38735bac8ef88888fb179a967
## Why
Host-provided context such as budget reminders can become stale while compaction runs. Replaying a captured value or retaining its comparison snapshot can prevent the next step from emitting a fresh reminder, even when the remaining budget has changed.
## What changed
- Add `WorldStateSectionContribution::without_full_context()` to omit a section's fragment and comparison snapshot from initial and compacted context rebuilds while preserving ordinary step updates.
- Reset comparison state after prefix compaction for sections excluded at either capture or installation, including when their messages survive in the live suffix.
- Include step World State updates when building debug prompt input.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for budget reminders refreshing after remote compaction within the same threshold, unchanged request prefixes within a context window, refreshes with a retained live suffix, and step reminders in debug prompts.
GitOrigin-RevId: ea4456755e16c93b5d16e8c762b26a33f8571a86
## What changed
Replace `thread_store_from_config` with `ThreadStoreBuilder`, exported through `codex_core` and `codex_core_api`, and migrate callers to the builder.
Allow hosts to register `with_additional_cleanup` for permanent deletion in local stores. The callback runs after successful agent-board cleanup and before rollout deletion, under the existing deletion locks. Document that cleanup must be idempotent and must avoid thread-store operations that reacquire those locks. In-memory stores do not invoke the callback.
Preserve the existing backend selection, startup rollout migration, and compression behavior.
GitOrigin-RevId: f2853d7de06fe12ef29451b204cf9fcbb349c359
## What changed
Add `RealtimeSidebandTransport` and `Op::RealtimeConversationAttachStream` so callers can attach Core to an existing realtime call through bounded JSON channels without opening or reconnecting a socket.
Read events independently of outbound backpressure, enforce a 1 MiB message limit, and drain accepted input on detach or channel closure before flushing the transcript. Pending writes are never replayed.
## Testing
Add transport and Core integration tests covering delegation without a callback socket, stalled output, attachment replacement and detach, channel closure, oversized messages, and preservation of queued transcripts in history.
GitOrigin-RevId: 06b7d1dfe2388054438d72d925e510a959dfe106
## Why
A transient WebSocket failure previously kept the session on HTTP for its remaining lifetime, even if WebSocket connectivity recovered.
## What changed
- Probe WebSocket connectivity in the background during HTTP fallback, allowing a subsequent request to use a ready connection without delaying HTTP requests.
- Verify recovery with a real request and bound its first-response wait to five seconds. Keep HTTP 426 responses and recovery timeouts on HTTP for the rest of the session.
- Keep retries of an HTTP request on HTTP. If a recovered connection fails before output, replay the request over HTTP without consuming its ordinary retry budget; failures after output use normal retry accounting.
- Rate-limit recovery probes and honor `Retry-After` deadlines.
## Testing
Extend integration coverage for successful recovery within a turn, disconnects before and after output, full-context replay followed by incremental WebSocket requests, persistent HTTP 426 fallback, and retry deadlines.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1c139a4bbce1a67442db5622fd70ff0cc8056c9c
## Why
Delegation messages containing `<source_orbit_id>` fail sender provenance parsing, leaving Guardian without the sender's instructions.
## What changed
Accept an optional `<source_orbit_id>` between `<source_thread_id>` and `<input>`, rejecting values containing `<`. Continue to derive sender authority from the source thread ID.
## Testing
Update the cross-host sender context scenario and snapshot to include orbit attribution. The scenario checks that sender evidence reaches Guardian after compaction and rollback without exposing it to the receiving agent.
GitOrigin-RevId: 463b18667384d30297245eedcd0f6bcbf683634e
## Why
Connected legacy MCP sessions and HTTP keep-alive connections can retain message-board state after shutdown. Pending board bindings also need cancellation before they can dispatch a tool call.
## What changed
Explicitly close MCP sessions after HTTP drains and track binding factories and handlers until they release their state. Cancel pending bindings during shutdown while allowing already-dispatched board operations to finish. Clarify that `LocalServer::shutdown` waits for cleanup, while dropping the server initiates it.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for shutdown with a connected legacy client, a paused board binding, and an unauthenticated keep-alive connection. Assert that shutdown releases the board host before returning.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7fbc9415e579a21f0c0fcf7bbb7db239b3aea886
## Why
Direct Guardian review rejected recorded `exec_command` calls intercepted as `apply_patch`, even though normal execution could review those patches.
## What changed
Share intercepted patch preparation between execution and direct review so Guardian assesses the verified patch and its approval requirement without applying it.
## Testing
Extend the direct patch review scenario to cover `exec_command` heredocs alongside native `apply_patch` calls, asserting identical live and direct review inputs and no file writes after direct approval.
GitOrigin-RevId: af62cf66a3f01c65a65c15cfad3fc9cdd1f2bf19
## What changed
- Add `currentAccountOnly` to `thread/list` and `thread/search`, defaulting to `false`, and enable it for TUI history discovery, resume pickers, and task mentions.
- Mark newly created threads as account-scoped and require each recorded creator user or account ID to match the current login. Older threads and threads without creator IDs remain shared; API-key logins continue to see all local history.
- Preserve account scope through resume and revert, including fallback to original rollout metadata when an older binary drops the marker. Forks receive new-thread scope.
- Skip unreadable rollout headers in scoped discovery and filter search candidates before reading snippets. Direct access by thread ID remains available.
## Testing
Add coverage for account matching, shared legacy history, list page refilling, search pagination, API-key visibility, and scope preservation across reverts. Extend rollout lookup coverage to compressed active and archived files.
GitOrigin-RevId: aa374f5e69165be5a71c0716ded1b105f5fb51e0
## What changed
Expose `launch_in_memory()` and `LocalServer` to run a loopback HTTP endpoint with generated bearer credentials. Runners register a shared in-memory board per session through `add_board(session_id, host)`, using `MessageBoardHost` for membership, clocks, and notifications without a SQLite registry.
The handle exposes the endpoint and authorization header for MCP configuration, including plugin endpoint overrides. Dropping it cancels HTTP and MCP sessions; `shutdown().await` also waits for completion.
## Testing
Extend the parent/child HTTP integration scenario to cover the in-memory launcher, plugin endpoint overrides, host-provided timestamps, authentication and invalid identity rejection, and operation without creating a SQLite board database.
GitOrigin-RevId: e1cae295724a35f4eded290ba8a4e19926b98c13
## What changed
Add a `message-board` plugin with connection metadata for the HTTP MCP server. It defaults to `http://127.0.0.1:7777/mcp`, uses `CODEX_MESSAGE_BOARD_TOKEN` for bearer authentication, and marks the server as required.
Document installation and endpoint overrides through `mcp_servers.codex_message_board`. Installing the plugin does not start the server.
## Testing
Extend the HTTP board integration scenario to cover both direct configuration and plugin installation, verifying that a child can post a decision and its restarted parent can discover the same board and read it. Add a plugin context snapshot and include the plugin resources in Bazel test data.
GitOrigin-RevId: d6cf797caaa4dbdcd45114c2ad0a6bd695cf056f
## What changed
- Add `codex-message-board-mcp` to serve discussion tools at `/mcp` through ordinary MCP configuration, backed by the existing SQLite board and a read-only Codex registry.
- Require bearer authentication and validate `threadId` and `sessionId` metadata against persisted agent membership. Support additional allowed HTTP hosts with `--allowed-host`.
- Expose a reusable `serve_http` library entry point and scope retry deduplication to the caller within an MCP session.
## Testing
Add integration coverage for a child posting and its restarted parent reading the persisted board, including reads while a database writer lock is held. Cover invalid tokens, disallowed hosts, missing caller metadata, invalid membership, and startup without an existing registry.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5e3d71eaaf120169e2585acd0b5f84df1b402f00
## What changed
Allow `guardian_review` to assess a final recorded `request_permissions` call without granting permissions. Build the review action using the same permission request preparation as live review, while continuing to reject earlier permission requests in the recorded history.
Return no assessment when the approval policy is `never` or granular policy disables permission requests.
## Testing
Add coverage comparing live and direct permission review inputs, plus tests that disallowed requests return no assessment without contacting the reviewer.
GitOrigin-RevId: cb5935202b0980e657b023f840a0186cea5e0b74
## What changed
Allow `guardian_review` to assess recorded native `apply_patch` calls alongside `exec_command` calls. Use the existing patch preparation and approval logic without applying the patch, and skip assessment when approval is unnecessary.
## Testing
Add coverage that compares direct and live patch review inputs, verifies that an allow decision leaves files unchanged, and checks that writable files skip review without writes or model requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8634ad8c00a67bcac9e7930ebf89c02707c3a6f7
## What changed
- Add `model_messages.plugins` overrides for generic usage guidance, selected-plugin hints, and recommendation introductions, with independent fallback to bundled wording for missing or invalid fields.
- Validate text limits and required template placeholders while keeping plugin identities, available capabilities, and eligibility controlled by the client.
- Track generic guidance changes across model switches and session resume, emitting replacement or retirement notices and supporting legacy snapshots and retained history.
## Testing
Add unit and scenario coverage for sparse overrides, literal text preservation, template validation, UTF-8 size bounds, capability filtering, recommendation fallback, and guidance recovery after resume.
GitOrigin-RevId: 148b658c2d8490c9d0dc208addbee1be5342a5f5
## Why
Input accepted while a regular turn was flushing its transcript could miss the final pending-input check and remain unprocessed when the turn completed.
## What changed
Check pending input atomically with closing steer admission. If input was accepted, resume sampling in the same turn while preserving MCP startup requirements, and complete the turn with the updated answer.
## Testing
Add a regression test that pauses the final flush, submits a steer, and verifies that the model receives it exactly once before the same turn completes with the answer to the steer.
GitOrigin-RevId: 193db3ab6916a86e97c3845590598fd8fbe47081
## Why
`start_or_steer_turn` rejected agent messages, preventing callers from submitting follow-up work through the turn input API.
## What changed
Route `TurnInput::InterAgentCommunication` through native agent message delivery and return `TurnInputSubmission::Accepted`, without implying an immediate turn ID. These submissions request work regardless of `trigger_turn`, retain the recipient's settings, and forward turn-start options.
Wrap plaintext messages with agent context while preserving encrypted content. Reject submissions to idle recipients when the host is draining.
## Testing
Add scenario tests and snapshots covering queued-message ordering, encrypted follow-ups, preemption at reasoning boundaries, and follow-ups arriving before or after a final answer. Extend drain-gate coverage to agent submissions with parent-turn lineage.
GitOrigin-RevId: 92d49465f97bb366babbf1b1bc18a1e8a6c6ed1c
## What changed
Add optional `ModelMessages.apps` and `AppsMessages.usage_instructions` fields to carry model catalog wording without runtime interpretation. Missing or null values become `None`, and strings retain their exact contents, including empty strings, whitespace, and template-like text.
## Testing
Add serialization coverage for nullable and literal Apps values, and extend existing tests to verify Apps messages survive model response round trips and base instruction overrides.

## What changed
- Allow audio inputs to carry uploaded file references via `fileId` in the app-server API and `file_id` in model content, preserving existing inline audio shapes and Python class names.
- Preserve mixed inline and file-backed audio ordering through history reconstruction and migration, and budget file-backed audio conservatively when duration is unknown.
- Keep uploaded audio disabled at runtime: reject it before inference or raw history injection, preserve accompanying text, and prevent rejected attachments from reaching follow-up or resumed requests.
## Testing
Add coverage for wire-format round trips, SDK compatibility, mixed audio history ordering, and rejection during turn start, steering, task completion, and raw injection.

## What changed
Allow connector-wide app settings under `plugins.<plugin>.apps.<connector>` for plugins enabled by configuration. Merge these settings field by field, giving earlier plugin names precedence and applying explicit top-level `apps` fields last. Ignore nested `_default` settings.
Expose the merged app settings and their field origins through the config API. Keep app policy changes from invalidating the loaded-plugin cache.
## Testing
Add coverage for plugin enablement, merge precedence, field origins, config API output, cache reuse, and disabling an app through plugin configuration during explicit plugin mentions.

## Why
Host-owned tools need to wait for agent messages or steering input with the same behavior as native `wait_agent`, including when native multi-agent support is disabled.
## What changed
- Add `CodexThread::wait_for_input_activity` and export `InputWaitOutcome` through core and core-api, sharing the wait implementation with `wait_agent`.
- Distinguish notifying agent messages from steering input, with steering taking precedence when both are pending. Passive response items do not wake waits.
- Observe input without consuming it. Waits remain active after the original turn ends, support independent observers, and can be cancelled by dropping the future.
## Testing
Add coverage for pending and incoming input, agent-message classification, cancellation, independent observers, timeouts, and input arriving after the original turn completes or is interrupted.
