## Summary
This PR removes the synthetic `HashMap<String, ToolInfo>` keys from MCP
tool discovery. `McpConnectionManager::list_all_tools()` now returns
normalized `Vec<ToolInfo>`, and downstream code derives identity from
`ToolInfo::canonical_tool_name()`.
The motivation is to keep model-visible tool identity on
`ToolName`/`ToolInfo` instead of parallel string map keys, so future
namespace changes do not have to preserve otherwise-unused lookup keys.
## Changes
- Rename the MCP normalization path from `qualify_tools` to
`normalize_tools_for_model` and return tool values directly.
- Flow MCP tool lists through connectors, plugin injection, router/spec
building, code mode, and tool search as vectors/slices.
- Keep direct/deferred subtraction local to `mcp_tool_exposure`, using
`ToolName` values.
- Update tests to compare `ToolName` instances where MCP identity
matters.
## Validation
- `cargo test -p codex-mcp test_normalize_tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core mcp_tool_exposure`
- `cargo test -p codex-core

## DISCLAIMER
This is experimental and no production service must rely on this
## Why
Built-in MCPs are product-owned runtime capabilities, but they were
previously flattened into the same config-backed stdio path as
user-configured servers. That made them depend on a hidden `codex
builtin-mcp` re-exec path, exposed them through config-oriented CLI
flows, and erased distinctions the runtime needs to preserve—most
notably whether an MCP call should count as external context for
memory-mode pollution.
## What changed
- Model product-owned built-ins separately from config-backed MCP
servers via `BuiltinMcpServer` and `EffectiveMcpServer`.
- Launch built-ins in process through a reusable async transport instead
of the hidden `builtin-mcp` stdio subcommand.
- Keep config-oriented CLI operations such as `codex mcp
list/get/login/logout` scoped to configured servers, while merging
built-ins only into the effective runtime server set.
- Retain server metadata after launch so parallel-tool support and
context classification come from the live server set; built-in
`memories` is now classified as local Codex state rather than external
context.
## Test plan
- `cargo test -p codex-mcp`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test suite

# Motivation
Browser Use origin-access prompts are MCP elicitations, not direct
tool-call approval prompts, so they were bypassing the Guardian approval
path. We need a generic opt-in that lets eligible MCP elicitations use
Guardian when the current turn already routes approvals there.
# Description
Add a generic elicitation reviewer hook in codex-mcp and wire codex-core
to pass a Guardian reviewer callback when creating the MCP connection
manager. The reviewer validates explicit mcp_tool_call opt-in metadata,
builds a Guardian MCP tool-call review request from
server/tool/connector metadata and tool params, and maps Guardian
approval, denial, timeout, and cancellation decisions back to MCP
elicitation responses.
The new option to trigger this in the `_meta` object is:
```
"codex_request_type": "approval_request",
```

## Why
MCP servers can provide `instructions` that explain what their tools are
for. Directly exposed MCP namespaces already use those instructions when
a connector description is not available, but deferred `tool_search`
results did not preserve that fallback. The direct path falls back from
connector metadata to server instructions, while the deferred path only
carried `connector_description` and otherwise fell back to generic
namespace text.
That meant a plain MCP server could provide useful model-facing guidance
and still appear as `Tools in the X namespace.` whenever it was
discovered lazily through `tool_search`.
## What changed
- Store one model-facing `namespace_description` on `ToolInfo`, using
connector descriptions for connector-backed tools and server
instructions for plain MCP servers.
- Thread that namespace description through the `tool_search` source
list, search indexing, and returned namespace metadata.
- Add an end-to-end regression test for deferred non-app MCP search
results exposing server instructions as the namespace description.

## Summary
- Change `EnvironmentProvider` to return concrete `Environment`
instances instead of `EnvironmentConfigurations`.
- Make `DefaultEnvironmentProvider` provide the provider-visible `local`
environment plus optional `remote` environment from
`CODEX_EXEC_SERVER_URL`.
- Keep `EnvironmentManager` as the concrete cache while exposing its own
explicit local environment for `local_environment()` fallback paths.

## Summary
- Add `disable_tool_suggest` to app and plugin config, schema, and
TypeScript output
- Exclude disabled connectors and plugins from tool suggestion discovery
- Persist "never show again" tool-suggestion choices back into
`config.toml`
- Update config docs and add coverage for connector and plugin
suppression
## Testing
- Added and updated unit tests for config persistence and tool-suggest
filtering
- Not run (not requested)
## Why
Several bug reports describe thread shutdown (including subagent
threads) leaving stdio MCP server processes behind. These reports all
point at the same lifecycle gap: Codex launches stdio MCP servers, but
the session-level shutdown path does not explicitly close MCP clients or
terminate the server process tree.
Fixes#12491Fixes#12976Fixes#18881Fixes#19469
## History
This is best understood as a regression/coverage gap in MCP session
lifecycle management, not as stdio MCP cleanup being absent all along.
#10710 added process-group cleanup for stdio MCP servers, but that
cleanup only runs when the `RmcpClient`/transport is dropped. The older
reports (#12491 and #12976) came after that cleanup existed, which
suggests the remaining problem was that some higher-level shutdown paths
kept the MCP manager alive or replaced it without explicitly draining
clients. The newer reports (#18881 and #19469) exposed the same family
around manager replacement and shutdown.
## What changed
- Added an explicit stdio MCP process handle in `codex-rmcp-client` so
local MCP servers terminate their process group and executor-backed MCP
servers call the executor process terminator.
- Added `RmcpClient::shutdown()` and manager-level MCP shutdown draining
so session shutdown, channel-close fallback, MCP refresh, and connector
probing stop owned MCP clients.
- Added regression coverage that starts a stdio MCP server, begins an
in-flight blocking tool call, shuts down the client, and asserts the
server process exits.

- `just fix -p codex-mcp`

- Manual before/after validation with a temporary repro script:
- Pre-fix binary from `HEAD^` (`fed0a8f4fa`): reproduced the leak with
surviving MCP server and child PIDs, `survivors=[77583, 77592]`,
`leaked=true`.
- Post-fix binary from this branch (`67e318148b`): verified both MCP
processes were gone after interrupting `codex exec`, `survivors=[]`,
`leaked=false`.
## Summary
AgentIdentity auth previously registered the process task lazily behind
a `OnceCell`. That meant the auth object could be constructed before its
runtime task binding was known.
This PR makes AgentIdentity auth load the runtime task at auth load time
and stores the resulting process task id directly on the auth object.
The model-provider call path can then read a concrete task id instead of
handling a missing lazy value.

## Important call sites
| Area | Change |
| --- | --- |
| `AgentIdentityAuth::load` | Registers the process task during auth
loading and stores `process_task_id`. |
| `CodexAuth::from_agent_identity_jwt` | Awaits AgentIdentity auth
loading. |
| model-provider auth | Reads a concrete `process_task_id` instead of an
optional lazy value. |
| AgentIdentity auth tests | Mock task registration now covers eager
runtime allocation. |
## Design decisions
AgentIdentity auth now treats task registration as part of constructing
a usable auth object. That matches how callers use the value: once auth
is present, the model-provider path expects the task-scoped assertion
data to be ready.
## Testing
Tests: targeted Rust auth test compilation, formatter, scoped Clippy
fix, and Bazel lock check.
## Summary
Auth loading used to expose synchronous construction helpers in several
places even though some auth sources now need async work. This PR makes
the auth-loading surface async and updates the callers to await it.
This is intentionally only plumbing. It does not change how
AgentIdentity tokens are decoded, how task runtime ids are allocated, or
how JWT signatures are verified.

## Why
Config loading had become split across crates: `codex-config` owned the
config types and merge logic, while `codex-core` still owned the loader
that assembled the layer stack. This change consolidates that
responsibility in `codex-config`, so the crate that defines config
behavior also owns how configs are discovered and loaded.
To make that move possible without reintroducing the old dependency
cycle, the shell-environment policy types and helpers that
`codex-exec-server` needs now live in `codex-protocol` instead of
flowing through `codex-config`.
This also makes the migrated loader tests more deterministic on machines
that already have managed or system Codex config installed by letting
tests override the system config and requirements paths instead of
reading the host's `/etc/codex`.
## What Changed
- moved the config loader implementation from `codex-core` into
`codex-config::loader` and deleted the old `core::config_loader` module
instead of leaving a compatibility shim
- moved shell-environment policy types and helpers into
`codex-protocol`, then updated `codex-exec-server` and other downstream
crates to import them from their new home
- updated downstream callers to use loader/config APIs from
`codex-config`
- added test-only loader overrides for system config and requirements
paths so loader-focused tests do not depend on host-managed config state
- cleaned up now-unused dependency entries and platform-specific cfgs
that were surfaced by post-push CI
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-config`
- `cargo test -p codex-core config_loader_tests::`
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol -p codex-exec-server -p
codex-cloud-requirements -p codex-rmcp-client --lib`
- `cargo test --lib -p codex-app-server-client -p codex-exec`
- `cargo test --no-run --lib -p codex-app-server`
- `cargo test -p codex-linux-sandbox --lib`
- `cargo shear`
- `just bazel-lock-check`
## Notes
- I did not chase unrelated full-suite failures outside the migrated
loader surface.
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib` still hits unrelated proxy-sensitive
failures on this machine, and Windows CI still shows unrelated
long-running/timeouting test noise outside the loader migration itself.
## Why
After #19391, `PermissionProfile` and the split filesystem/network
policies could still be stored in parallel. That creates drift risk: a
profile can preserve deny globs, external enforcement, or split
filesystem entries while a cached projection silently loses those
details. This PR makes the profile the runtime source and derives
compatibility views from it.
## What Changed
- Removes stored filesystem/network sandbox projections from
`Permissions` and `SessionConfiguration`; their accessors now derive
from the canonical `PermissionProfile`.
- Derives legacy `SandboxPolicy` snapshots from profiles only where an
older API still needs that field.
- Updates MCP connection and elicitation state to track
`PermissionProfile` instead of `SandboxPolicy` for auto-approval
decisions.
- Adds semantic filesystem-policy comparison so cwd changes can preserve
richer profiles while still recognizing equivalent legacy projections
independent of entry ordering.
- Updates config/session tests to assert profile-derived projections
instead of parallel stored fields.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-core direct_write_roots`
- `cargo test -p codex-core runtime_roots_to_legacy_projection`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server

## Summary
This PR fully reverts the previously merged Agent Identity runtime
integration from the old stack:
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/17387/changes
It removes the Codex-side task lifecycle wiring, rollout/session
persistence, feature flag plumbing, lazy `auth.json` mutation,
background task auth paths, and request callsite changes introduced by
that stack.
This leaves the repo in a clean pre-AgentIdentity integration state so
the follow-up PRs can reintroduce the pieces in smaller reviewable
layers.
## Stack
1. This PR: full revert
2. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18871: move Agent Identity

AgentIdentity auth mode and startup task allocation
4. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18811: migrate auth callsites

## Testing
Tests: targeted Rust checks, cargo-shear, Bazel lock check, and CI.
## Summary
Introduces a single background/control-plane agent task for ChatGPT
backend requests that do not have a thread-scoped task, with
`AuthManager` owning the default ChatGPT backend authorization decision.
Callers now ask `AuthManager` for the default ChatGPT backend
authorization header. `AuthManager` decides whether that is bearer or
background AgentAssertion based on config/internal state, while
low-level bootstrap paths can explicitly request bearer-only auth.
This PR is stacked on PR4 and focuses on the shared background task auth
plumbing plus the first tranche of backend/control-plane consumers. The
remaining callsite wiring is split into PR4.2 to keep review size down.
## Stack

`features.use_agent_identity`
- PR2: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/17386 - register agent
identities when enabled

`AgentAssertion` auth
- PR4.2: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18260 - use background
task auth for additional backend/control-plane calls
## What Changed
- add background task registration and assertion minting inside
`codex-login`
- persist `agent_identity.background_task_id` separately from
per-session task state
- make `BackgroundAgentTaskManager` private to `codex-login`; call sites
do not instantiate or pass it around
- teach `AuthManager` the ChatGPT backend base URL and feature-derived
background auth mode from resolved config
- expose bearer-only helpers for bootstrap/registration/refresh-style
paths that must not use AgentAssertion
- wire `AuthManager` default ChatGPT authorization through app listing,
connector directory listing, remote plugins, MCP status/listing,
analytics, and core-skills remote calls
- preserve bearer fallback when the feature is disabled, the backend
host is unsupported, or background task registration is not available

## Why
#17763 moved sandbox-state delivery for MCP tool calls to request
`_meta` via the `codex/sandbox-state-meta` experimental capability.
Keeping the older `codex/sandbox-state` capability meant Codex still
maintained a second transport that pushed updates with the custom
`codex/sandbox-state/update` request at server startup and when the
session sandbox policy changed.
That duplicate MCP path is redundant with the per-tool-call metadata
path and makes the sandbox-state contract larger than needed. The
existing managed network proxy refresh on sandbox-policy changes is
still needed, so this keeps that behavior separate from the removed MCP
notification.
## What Changed
- Removed the exported `MCP_SANDBOX_STATE_CAPABILITY` and
`MCP_SANDBOX_STATE_METHOD` constants.
- Removed detection of `codex/sandbox-state` during MCP initialization
and stopped sending `codex/sandbox-state/update` at server startup.
- Removed the `McpConnectionManager::notify_sandbox_state_change`
plumbing while preserving the managed network proxy refresh when a user
turn changes sandbox policy.
- Slimmed `McpConnectionManager::new` so startup paths pass only the
initial `SandboxPolicy` needed for MCP elicitation state.
- Kept `codex/sandbox-state-meta` support intact; servers that opt in
still receive the current `SandboxState` on tool-call request `_meta`
([remaining call
path](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/ff2d3c1e72ff08ce13743b99605d19d338edd51c/codex-rs/core/src/mcp_tool_call.rs#L487-L526)).
- Added regression coverage for refreshing the live managed network
proxy on a per-turn sandbox-policy change.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-core
new_turn_refreshes_managed_network_proxy_for_sandbox_change`
- `cargo test -p codex-mcp`
## Summary
- reduce public module visibility across Rust crates, preferring private
or crate-private modules with explicit crate-root public exports
- update external call sites and tests to use the intended public crate
APIs instead of reaching through module trees
- add the module visibility guideline to AGENTS.md
## Validation
- `cargo check --workspace --all-targets --message-format=short` passed
before the final fix/format pass
- `just fix` completed successfully
- `just fmt` completed successfully
- `git diff --check` passed
Extract a shared helper that builds AuthManager from Config and applies
the forced ChatGPT workspace override in one place.
Create the shared AuthManager at MessageProcessor call sites so that
upcoming new transport's initialization can reuse the same handle, and
keep only external auth refresher wiring inside `MessageProcessor`.
Remove the now-unused `AuthManager::shared_with_external_auth` helper.
## Why
This finishes the config-type move out of `codex-core` by removing the
temporary compatibility shim in `codex_core::config::types`. Callers now
depend on `codex-config` directly, which keeps these config model types
owned by the config crate instead of re-expanding `codex-core` as a
transitive API surface.
## What Changed
- Removed the `codex-rs/core/src/config/types.rs` re-export shim and the
`core::config::ApprovalsReviewer` re-export.
- Updated `codex-core`, `codex-cli`, `codex-tui`, `codex-app-server`,
`codex-mcp-server`, and `codex-linux-sandbox` call sites to import
`codex_config::types` directly.
- Added explicit `codex-config` dependencies to downstream crates that
previously relied on the `codex-core` re-export.
- Regenerated `codex-rs/core/config.schema.json` after updating the
config docs path reference.
## Why
`codex-core` was re-exporting APIs owned by sibling `codex-*` crates,
which made downstream crates depend on `codex-core` as a proxy module
instead of the actual owner crate.
Removing those forwards makes crate boundaries explicit and lets leaf
crates drop unnecessary `codex-core` dependencies. In this PR, this
reduces the dependency on `codex-core` to `codex-login` in the following
files:
```
codex-rs/backend-client/Cargo.toml
codex-rs/mcp-server/tests/common/Cargo.toml
```
## What
- Remove `codex-rs/core/src/lib.rs` re-exports for symbols owned by
`codex-login`, `codex-mcp`, `codex-rollout`, `codex-analytics`,
`codex-protocol`, `codex-shell-command`, `codex-sandboxing`,
`codex-tools`, and `codex-utils-path`.
- Delete the `default_client` forwarding shim in `codex-rs/core`.
- Update in-crate and downstream callsites to import directly from the
owning `codex-*` crate.
- Add direct Cargo dependencies where callsites now target the owner
crate, and remove `codex-core` from `codex-rs/backend-client`.
## Why
`codex-mcp` already owns the shared MCP API surface, including `auth`,
`McpConfig`, `CODEX_APPS_MCP_SERVER_NAME`, and tool-name helpers in
[`codex-rs/codex-mcp/src/mcp/mod.rs`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/f61e85dbfb5373cde6827d232ac8ea447c237e81/codex-rs/codex-mcp/src/mcp/mod.rs#L1-L35).
Re-exporting that surface from `codex_core::mcp` gives downstream crates
two import paths for the same API and hides the real crate dependency.
This PR keeps `codex_core::mcp` focused on the local `McpManager`
wrapper in
[`codex-rs/core/src/mcp.rs`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/f61e85dbfb5373cde6827d232ac8ea447c237e81/codex-rs/core/src/mcp.rs#L13-L40)
and makes consumers import shared MCP APIs from `codex_mcp` directly.
## What
- Remove the `codex_mcp::mcp` re-export surface from `core/src/mcp.rs`.
- Update `codex-core` internals plus `codex-app-server`, `codex-cli`,
and `codex-tui` test code to import MCP APIs from `codex_mcp::mcp`
directly.
- Add explicit `codex-mcp` dependencies where those crates now use that
API surface, and refresh `Cargo.lock`.
## Verification
- `just bazel-lock-check`
- `cargo test -p codex-core -p codex-cli -p codex-tui`
- `codex-cli` passed.
- `codex-core` still fails five unrelated config tests in
`core/src/config/config_tests.rs` (`approvals_reviewer_*` and
`smart_approvals_alias_*`).
- A broader `cargo test -p codex-core -p codex-app-server -p codex-cli
-p codex-tui` run previously hung in `codex-app-server` test
`in_process_start_uses_requested_session_source_for_thread_start`.
- Split MCP runtime/server code out of `codex-core` into the new
`codex-mcp` crate. New/moved public structs/types include `McpConfig`,
`McpConnectionManager`, `ToolInfo`, `ToolPluginProvenance`,
`CodexAppsToolsCacheKey`, and the `McpManager` API
(`codex_mcp::mcp::McpManager` plus the `codex_core::mcp::McpManager`
wrapper/shim). New/moved functions include `with_codex_apps_mcp`,
`configured_mcp_servers`, `effective_mcp_servers`,
`collect_mcp_snapshot`, `collect_mcp_snapshot_from_manager`,
`qualified_mcp_tool_name_prefix`, and the MCP auth/skill-dependency
helpers. Why: this creates a focused MCP crate boundary and shrinks
`codex-core` without forcing every consumer to migrate in the same PR.
- Move MCP server config schema and persistence into `codex-config`.
New/moved structs/enums include `AppToolApproval`,
`McpServerToolConfig`, `McpServerConfig`, `RawMcpServerConfig`,
`McpServerTransportConfig`, `McpServerDisabledReason`, and
`codex_config::ConfigEditsBuilder`. New/moved functions include
`load_global_mcp_servers` and
`ConfigEditsBuilder::replace_mcp_servers`/`apply`. Why: MCP TOML
parsing/editing is config ownership, and this keeps config
validation/round-tripping (including per-tool approval overrides and
inline bearer-token rejection) in the config crate instead of
`codex-core`.
- Rewire `codex-core`, app-server, and plugin call sites onto the new
crates. Updated `Config::to_mcp_config(&self, plugins_manager)`,
`codex-rs/core/src/mcp.rs`, `codex-rs/core/src/connectors.rs`,
`codex-rs/core/src/codex.rs`,
`CodexMessageProcessor::list_mcp_server_status_task`, and
`utils/plugins/src/mcp_connector.rs` to build/pass the new MCP
config/runtime types. Why: plugin-provided MCP servers still merge with
user-configured servers, and runtime auth (`CodexAuth`) is threaded into
`with_codex_apps_mcp` / `collect_mcp_snapshot` explicitly so `McpConfig`
stays config-only.
## Why
`#16193` moved the pure `tool_search` and `tool_suggest` spec builders
into `codex-tools`, but `codex-core` still owned the shared
discoverable-tool model that those builders and the `tool_suggest`
runtime both depend on. This change continues the migration by moving
that reusable model boundary out of `codex-core` as well, so the
discovery/suggestion stack uses one shared set of types and
`core/src/tools` no longer needs its own `discoverable.rs` module.
## What changed
- Moved `DiscoverableTool`, `DiscoverablePluginInfo`, and
`filter_tool_suggest_discoverable_tools_for_client()` into
`codex-rs/tools/src/tool_discovery.rs` alongside the extracted
discovery/suggestion spec builders.
- Added `codex-app-server-protocol` as a `codex-tools` dependency so the
shared discoverable-tool model can own the connector-side `AppInfo`
variant directly.
- Updated `core/src/tools/handlers/tool_suggest.rs`,
`core/src/tools/spec.rs`, `core/src/tools/router.rs`,
`core/src/connectors.rs`, and `core/src/codex.rs` to consume the shared
`codex-tools` model instead of the old core-local declarations.
- Changed `core/src/plugins/discoverable.rs` to return
`DiscoverablePluginInfo` directly, moved the pure client-filter coverage
into `tool_discovery_tests.rs`, and deleted the old
`core/src/tools/discoverable.rs` module.
- Updated `codex-rs/tools/README.md` so the crate boundary documents
that `codex-tools` now owns the discoverable-tool models in addition to
the discovery/suggestion spec builders.
## Test plan
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/tmp/codex-core-discoverable-model cargo test -p
codex-core --lib tools::handlers::tool_suggest::`
- `CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/tmp/codex-core-discoverable-model cargo test -p
codex-core --lib tools::spec::`
- `CARGO_TARGET_DIR=/tmp/codex-core-discoverable-model cargo test -p
codex-core --lib plugins::discoverable::`
- `just bazel-lock-check`
- `just argument-comment-lint`

## Why
`token_data` is owned by `codex-login`, but `codex-core` was still
re-exporting it. That let callers pull auth token types through
`codex-core`, which keeps otherwise unrelated crates coupled to
`codex-core` and makes `codex-core` more of a build-graph bottleneck.
## What changed
- remove the `codex-core` re-export of `codex_login::token_data`
- update the remaining `codex-core` internals that used
`crate::token_data` to import `codex_login::token_data` directly
- update downstream callers in `codex-rs/chatgpt`,
`codex-rs/tui_app_server`, `codex-rs/app-server/tests/common`, and
`codex-rs/core/tests` to import `codex_login::token_data` directly
- add explicit `codex-login` workspace dependencies and refresh lock
metadata for crates that now depend on it directly
## Validation
- `cargo test -p codex-chatgpt --locked`
- `just argument-comment-lint`
- `just bazel-lock-update`
- `just bazel-lock-check`
## Notes
- attempted `cargo test -p codex-core --locked` and `cargo test -p
codex-core auth_refresh --locked`, but both ran out of disk while
linking `codex-core` test binaries in the local environment
- Split the feature system into a new `codex-features` crate.
- Cut `codex-core` and workspace consumers over to the new config and
warning APIs.

It now supports:
- Connectors that are from installed and enabled plugins that are not
installed yet
- Plugins that are on the allowlist that are not installed yet.
## Why
Once the repo-local lint exists, `codex-rs` needs to follow the
checked-in convention and CI needs to keep it from drifting. This commit
applies the fallback `/*param*/` style consistently across existing
positional literal call sites without changing those APIs.
The longer-term preference is still to avoid APIs that require comments
by choosing clearer parameter types and call shapes. This PR is
intentionally the mechanical follow-through for the places where the
existing signatures stay in place.
After rebasing onto newer `main`, the rollout also had to cover newly
introduced `tui_app_server` call sites. That made it clear the first cut
of the CI job was too expensive for the common path: it was spending
almost as much time installing `cargo-dylint` and re-testing the lint
crate as a representative test job spends running product tests. The CI
update keeps the full workspace enforcement but trims that extra
overhead from ordinary `codex-rs` PRs.
## What changed
- keep a dedicated `argument_comment_lint` job in `rust-ci`
- mechanically annotate remaining opaque positional literals across
`codex-rs` with exact `/*param*/` comments, including the rebased
`tui_app_server` call sites that now fall under the lint
- keep the checked-in style aligned with the lint policy by using
`/*param*/` and leaving string and char literals uncommented
- cache `cargo-dylint`, `dylint-link`, and the relevant Cargo
registry/git metadata in the lint job
- split changed-path detection so the lint crate's own `cargo test` step
runs only when `tools/argument-comment-lint/*` or `rust-ci.yml` changes
- continue to run the repo wrapper over the `codex-rs` workspace, so
product-code enforcement is unchanged
Most of the code changes in this commit are intentionally mechanical
comment rewrites or insertions driven by the lint itself.
## Verification
- `./tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh --workspace`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui-app-server -p codex-tui`
- parsed `.github/workflows/rust-ci.yml` locally with PyYAML

This PR changes app and connector enablement when `requirements.toml` is
present locally or via remote configuration.
For apps.* entries:
- `enabled = false` in `requirements.toml` overrides the user’s local
`config.toml` and forces the app to be disabled.
- `enabled = true` in `requirements.toml` does not re-enable an app the
user has disabled in config.toml.
This behavior applies whether or not the user has an explicit entry for
that app in `config.toml`. It also applies to cloud-managed policies and
configurations when the admin sets the override through
`requirements.toml`.
Scenarios tested and verified:
- Remote managed, user config (present) override
- Admin-defined policies & configurations include a connector override:
`[apps.<appID>]
enabled = false`
- User's config.toml has the same connector configured with `enabled =
true`
- TUI/App should show connector as disabled
- Connector should be unavailable for use in the composer
- Remote managed, user config (absent) override
- Admin-defined policies & configurations include a connector override:
`[apps.<appID>]
enabled = false`
- User's config.toml has no entry for the the same connector
- TUI/App should show connector as disabled
- Connector should be unavailable for use in the composer
- Locally managed, user config (present) override
- Local requirements.toml includes a connector override:
`[apps.<appID>]
enabled = false`
- User's config.toml has the same connector configured with `enabled =
true`
- TUI/App should show connector as disabled
- Connector should be unavailable for use in the composer
- Locally managed, user config (absent) override
- Local requirements.toml includes a connector override:
`[apps.<appID>]
enabled = false`
- User's config.toml has no entry for the the same connector
- TUI/App should show connector as disabled
- Connector should be unavailable for use in the composer

## Why
PR #13783 moved the `codex.rs` unit tests into `codex_tests.rs`. This
applies the same extraction pattern across the rest of `codex-rs/core`
so the production modules stay focused on runtime code instead of large
inline test blocks.
Keeping the tests in sibling files also makes follow-up edits easier to
review because product changes no longer have to share a file with
hundreds or thousands of lines of test scaffolding.
## What changed
- replaced each inline `mod tests { ... }` in `codex-rs/core/src/**`
with a path-based module declaration
- moved each extracted unit test module into a sibling `*_tests.rs`
file, using `mod_tests.rs` for `mod.rs` modules
- preserved the existing `cfg(...)` guards and module-local structure so
the refactor remains structural rather than behavioral
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib` (`1653 passed; 0 failed; 5 ignored`)
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `cargo fmt --check`
- `cargo shear`
## Summary
- address the follow-up review nits from #13996 in a separate PR
- make the approvals test command a raw string and keep the
managed-network path using env proxy routing
- inline `--apply-seccomp-then-exec` in the Linux sandbox inner command
builder
- remove the bubblewrap-specific sandbox metric tag path and drop the
`use_legacy_landlock` shim from `sandbox_tag`/`TurnMetadataState::new`
- restore the `Feature` import that `origin/main` currently still needs
in `connectors.rs`
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-linux-sandbox`
- focused `codex-core` tests were rerun/started, but the final
verification pass was interrupted when I pushed at request
## Summary
- make bubblewrap the default Linux sandbox and keep
`use_legacy_landlock` as the only override
- remove `use_linux_sandbox_bwrap` from feature, config, schema, and
docs surfaces
- update Linux sandbox selection, CLI/config plumbing, and related
tests/docs to match the new default
- fold in the follow-up CI fixes for request-permissions responses and
Linux read-only sandbox error text
## Why
to support a new bring your own search tool in Responses
API(https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/tools-tool-search#client-executed-tool-search)
we migrating our bm25 search tool to use official way to execute search
on client and communicate additional tools to the model.
## What
- replace the legacy `search_tool_bm25` flow with client-executed
`tool_search`
- add protocol, SSE, history, and normalization support for
`tool_search_call` and `tool_search_output`
- return namespaced Codex Apps search results and wire namespaced
follow-up tool calls back into MCP dispatch
## Note-- added plugin mentions via @, but that conflicts with file
mentions
depends and builds upon #13433.
- introduces explicit `@plugin` mentions. this injects the plugin's mcp
servers, app names, and skill name format into turn context as a dev
message.
- we do not yet have UI for these mentions, so we currently parse raw
text (as opposed to skills and apps which have UI chips, autocomplete,
etc.) this depends on a `plugins/list` app-server endpoint we can feed
the UI with, which is upcoming
- also annotate mcp and app tool descriptions with the plugin(s) they
come from. this gives the model a first class way of understanding what
tools come from which plugins, which will help implicit invocation.
### Tests
Added and updated tests, unit and integration. Also confirmed locally a
raw `@plugin` injects the dev message, and the model knows about its
apps, mcps, and skills.
load plugin-apps from `.app.json`.
make apps runtime-mentionable iff `codex_apps` MCP actually exposes
tools for that `connector_id`.
if the app isn't available, it's filtered out of runtime connector set,
so no tools are added and no app-mentions resolve.
right now we don't have a clean cli-side error for an app not being
installed. can look at this after.
### Tests
Added tests, tested locally that using a plugin that bundles an app
picks up the app.
We now write MCP tools from installed apps to disk cache so that they
can be picked up instantly at startup. We still do a fresh fetch from
remote MCP server but it's non blocking unless there's a cache miss.
- [x] Store apps tool cache in disk to reduce startup time.
