## 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.
GitOrigin-RevId: 6e107d441b9bf03fa47ea47b88eeb94b71a9f729
## 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
- Reformat Markdown tables and lists, login pages, inline visualization HTML, and sample JavaScript scripts.
- Escape union-type pipes in Python SDK API tables so they render within their cells.
- Keep the formatting-recipe test focused on the working directory and formatter commands by removing assertions on comment text.
GitOrigin-RevId: ae46d5b40fd013553de8b5ccf2c41d76be65aba8
## Why
Instant Connect can return a call ID before ICE activates the call, causing sideband attachment to briefly fail with HTTP `404` while the client connects media.
## What changed
Retry `404` responses from `connect_existing_call_sideband` up to three times, waiting 100, 300, and 800 milliseconds. Return the error once this activation retry budget is exhausted, and preserve the existing handling of other errors.
## Testing
Add WebSocket coverage for successful attachment after three `404` responses, failure after four `404` responses, and no retry on HTTP `410`. Verify that successful attachment does not overwrite the prepared session configuration.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5d18ff7eeeb9abd56388808828382f7350c7ae57
## Why
WebSocket rate-limit and overload errors ignored `Retry-After` advice and ended turns even when the server supplied a retry delay.
## What changed
Extract retry advice from nested `error.headers`, falling back to top-level `headers` when nested advice is missing or invalid. Use the shared HTTP header validation and retry-delay parser, and preserve the delay when mapping WebSocket errors.
## Testing
Add coverage for nested-header precedence, malformed headers, HTTP header validation, and recovery after an advised rate limit. Verify that overloads retry only while advice is present, without falling back to HTTP, and that headerless rate limits, usage limits, and `flex_unavailable` errors remain terminal.
GitOrigin-RevId: 61add0c36197e10402d6d3c325332aac72a5a521
## Why
Serial connection opens let a stalled handshake delay healthy sockets. Waiting until the idle pool is empty to refill also leaves classification bursts using HTTP fallback.
## What changed
- Open up to four WebSockets concurrently and start replenishing when the idle pool falls to half capacity. Preserve successful in-flight opens when another open fails or times out.
- Make explicit prewarming wait for an existing refill before checking readiness.
- Add `ResponsesWebsocketClient::connect_with_connector` and reuse one connector per sampler, initializing TLS configuration on a blocking task while retaining per-connection authentication and destination policy checks.
- Record connection lease durations for admission, setup, and total time, tagged by transport.
## Testing
Add regression tests for a stalled handshake alongside a healthy socket and replenishment before the last idle socket is leased. Update cooldown, authentication, and transport retry tests to account for concurrent handshake completion.
GitOrigin-RevId: f4a8258977c1f2a58e00c6badc7b599280ef22ad
## Why
Assistant answer text may be followed by more output or tools. A distinct `partial_answer` phase lets callers represent this separately from commentary and a terminal `final_answer`.
## What changed
- Add `MessagePhase::PartialAnswer` and expose `partial_answer` in the app-server schemas and generated TypeScript and Python types.
- Keep the TUI working indicator visible after partial answers and exclude them from the thread history's final-answer summary field.
- Route partial answers to the speakable channel in realtime V3 BEM-tag mode.
## Testing
Add coverage for phase preservation through serialization, input-message conversion, and SSE item start/completion events. Extend TUI snapshot coverage to verify that partial answers keep the working indicator visible while final answers hide it.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1ae3ad9264b6e36ae1cbe6b93df3d345ab4460e6
## What changed
- Carry opaque `review_target` values through misalignment errors and expose optional `reviewTarget` in the app-server protocol and generated clients. Preserve the value verbatim and redact it from debug output.
- Keep target-based `misalignment_override` metadata on turn requests, preserve it across steering updates, and exclude it from compaction and external MCP metadata. Reject overrides from global Responses metadata while retaining legacy timestamp behavior for per-turn overrides.
## Testing
Extend coverage for error propagation, debug and rollout redaction, steering preservation, and metadata filtering. Verify that automatic compaction omits the review target while turn requests before and after compaction retain it.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8c1abb076a206ff5927a4acc31bd25e3efc2bff9
## 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
## Why
Streamed `response.failed` events can carry retry advice in `response.error.headers`. Ignoring it loses server-provided delays or uses a conflicting delay from a rate-limit message.
## What changed
- Parse nested `Retry-After` headers using the existing HTTP header validation and retry parser, and preserve them for rate-limit, overload, and generic retryable failures.
- Prefer valid headers over rate-limit message advice, falling back to the message when the header is absent or invalid. Keep terminal error classifications unchanged.
- Reject unrepresentable plaintext retry durations without panicking.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for header precedence, validation, and terminal errors, plus retry-loop coverage for SSE sampling, remote compaction, and WebSocket failures.
GitOrigin-RevId: 46433c2e9e6d5e804211ef96950fadd70e322b49
## Why
Gateways that inspect request bodies incrementally need routing fields before potentially multi-megabyte prompts so they can route requests without buffering the input first.
## What changed
Serialize `model`, `stream`, and optional `service_tier` before `input` in both HTTP Responses requests and WebSocket `response.create` messages. Preserve field values and omission of unset `service_tier`.
## Testing
Add an HTTP regression test with a 2 MiB input that checks routing field order and unchanged JSON contents. Extend WebSocket serialization coverage to assert the routing fields appear first, and check that HTTP requests omit unset `service_tier`.
GitOrigin-RevId: dbc174e1fe7ca30d0c00f075bc37dd5f97b27b37
## Why
Responses overload and exhausted-request errors could terminate despite server retry advice, and WebSocket-to-HTTP fallback could issue a request before the advised deadline.
## What changed
- Allow `ServerOverloaded` and `RetryLimit` errors to retry when server advice is present, within the configured retry budgets.
- Preserve `Retry-After` headers from rejected WebSocket upgrades and wait for the server deadline before falling back to HTTP.
- Keep quota, usage-limit, and policy failures terminal even when they include retry advice.
## Testing
Add coverage for HTTP overload and rate-limit recovery, WebSocket upgrade rejection and fallback timing, retry deadline preservation through error mapping, and retry limits for sampling and manual and automatic compaction.
GitOrigin-RevId: 72d30a9f078652664754dfa971fd7dc7a78f20e8
## Why
Responses stopped by `content_filter` previously followed generic stream-error retry handling without guidance about the block. Retried requests need instructions to explain the limitation and offer a permitted alternative.
## What changed
- Recognize content-filter failures as a distinct error while preserving retryability and the existing public error representation.
- Append developer guidance to the conversation after each sampling block, retaining delivered output and using the existing retry handling.
- Support a model catalog override through `model_messages.content_filter_guidance`. Missing, null, blank, or values exceeding 512 UTF-8 bytes fall back to bundled guidance.
- The bundled guidance tells the model to avoid reproducing or working around blocked content, briefly explain the limitation, offer a permitted alternative, and continue unrelated authorized work.
## Testing
Add a scenario and request-history snapshot covering repeated blocks, catalog guidance on each retry, retained partial output, and eventual completion. Add error-mapping assertions for retryability, public error classification, and error text.
GitOrigin-RevId: ba0c201b3a5a3acf5cfa971332027240e0690225
Stop logging response headers on successful WebSocket connections and payload
previews for tool calls. Keep the connection URL, tool name, and thread ID in
their respective log entries.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1d410b6aef8f12153da9bfc60c515b8e797a9de0
## Why
Steering an active WebSocket response previously dropped the connection and
resent the full history. Draining the response preserves the connection and
allows the follow-up request to continue with `previous_response_id`.
## What changed
- Drain WebSocket responses when steering. For models using
`use_responses_lite`, first send `response.interrupt` with
`mode: "discard_partial_items"` once the response ID is available.
- Treat `response.incomplete` with reason `interrupted` as completion with
`end_turn: false`, preserving token usage and allowing the turn to continue.
Other incomplete reasons remain errors.
## Testing
Update the steering integration test to cover completed and discarded reasoning
items, asserting connection reuse, incremental follow-up input, and token usage
from the interrupted response.
GitOrigin-RevId: bc714b713e797cf1a67e3b26ffbf7664cb92eb33
## What changed
Move `response.failed` classification and rate-limit retry-delay parsing into `responses_error.rs`, preserving existing error mappings, fallback messages, and malformed-payload behavior. Replace the inline classification logic in the SSE event handler with `parse_failed_response`.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for missing or malformed failed-response payloads, including invalid values in unused error fields. Move the existing retry-delay parsing tests alongside the extracted parser.
GitOrigin-RevId: 6faa09b3fb312f1990509eef7088c8a086724615
Move JSON-to-HTTP header conversion from `responses_websocket` into the
crate-wide `responses_headers` module and update the WebSocket code to use it.
Preserve conversion of string, number, and boolean values, while continuing to
ignore invalid header names and unsupported or invalid values.
GitOrigin-RevId: f179de214cf763549b5b8a898dc4bcda3ce07ebd
## Why
Usage limit errors discarded the server-selected window responsible for the limit, leaving turn and compaction analytics unable to distinguish five-hour limits from weekly limits.
## What changed
Preserve optional `limit_window_minutes` from usage limit error responses in `UsageLimitReachedError` and report it as `usage_limit_window_minutes` in turn and compaction events. Accept unsigned integers that fit in `u16`; treat missing, null, malformed, or out-of-range values as unknown. Events for other error kinds report `null`.
## Testing
Add coverage for HTTP and wrapped WebSocket error mapping, analytics serialization and reduction, and app-server propagation to turn and local/remote compaction events. Cases include five-hour and weekly windows, missing or invalid values, and unrelated errors.
GitOrigin-RevId: a32066a007559d91a3c868a756bfd0f976777176
## What changed
- Recognize `flex_unavailable` in HTTP 429 responses and streamed `error` and `response.failed` events. End normal turns without retries and report `Flex capacity unavailable.`
- Expose `flexUnavailable` through the core and app-server protocols and generated schemas and SDK types.
- Keep Flex capacity failures eligible for Guardian review and sampler retries, with a distinct telemetry classification.
- Map unexpected HTTP responses to `HttpConnectionFailed`, preserving their status codes.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for terminal Flex failures over HTTP, SSE, and WebSocket, HTTP 504 status preservation after a stream retry, and protocol serialization. Update Guardian retry and sampler recovery tests to cover Flex failures.
GitOrigin-RevId: f2e03a6d2d36a6d9748c35952e40397f8670d121
## Why
Editing recent conversation images failed when the selected images included a file reference from a message or tool output.
## What changed
Use `ImageReference` in `ImageEditRequest` to accept both `image_url` and `file_id` inputs. Pass file references from conversation history through to image edit requests while preserving image selection order.
## Testing
Update tests to cover file references from messages and tool outputs, and serialization of mixed inline and file references in image edit requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2764bf36a81a62ddd25cf9df27346a434a10c449
## Why
File blob uploads previously failed immediately on HTTP 502 and 504 responses, even though these transient gateway errors can recover on retry.
## What changed
Treat HTTP 502 and 504 as retryable alongside 503, using the existing attempt limit, upload deadline, and server-provided retry delays.
## Testing
Expand upload retry tests to cover recovery from 502 and 504, mixed transient responses, exhausted attempts, and retry delays exceeding the remaining budget. Verify that 403, 409, and 500 responses are not retried, including responses without an Azure error code.
GitOrigin-RevId: a8e2f6bcf69338fb6d24f4c2d1ee333fb77bdbc0
## What changed
- Move `Provider` and `RetryConfig` into `codex-client`, retaining re-exports from `codex-api`, and switch `codex-model-provider-info` to depend on `codex-client`.
- Move feature-state metric emission into `codex-core`, preserving its behavior while removing the `codex-features` dependency on `codex-otel`.
- Explicitly enable TLS features for `tonic` in `codex-config` and `reqwest` in `codex-http-client`.
- Enable `png`'s `zlib-rs` feature directly in `codex-utils-image` to keep encoded PNG bytes stable when WebSocket dependencies are absent.
GitOrigin-RevId: 91fd63ab01b55d516b3e80e3644d06af8d5a01f6
## Why
A previously used WebSocket can close while a thread is idle. Hosts need a way to prepare the connection before the next turn without repeating warmup on a healthy connection.
## What changed
- Expose `CodexThread::prewarm()` using the existing startup warmup and next-turn handoff.
- Reuse healthy connections and pending warmups, retry failed warmups, and repair closed connections. Treat a finished WebSocket reader task as a closed connection.
- Skip scheduling during an active turn or shutdown, and stop warmup admission before shutdown takes the pending task.
- Expose `active_turn_environment_selections()` so hosts can inspect the environments captured by the active turn, including those still starting or failed, when authorizing steering.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for repeated idle prewarm calls, healthy connection reuse with preserved response continuation, reconnection with `generate: false`, and warmup rejection after shutdown. Update delayed MCP discovery coverage to verify prewarm repairs an eagerly closed socket and the first turn reuses it.
GitOrigin-RevId: aa164b91a399de2375eda3bf28397725439fce93
## Why
HTTP retries used local backoff even when the server supplied `Retry-After`. Relative retry delays also failed to account for time spent propagating errors or reporting retries.
## What changed
- Parse `Retry-After` delay seconds and HTTP dates into a monotonic deadline captured when response headers arrive.
- Honor that deadline for HTTP retries, falling back to local backoff when valid advice is absent.
- Preserve deadlines through API and Bedrock error mapping, stream retries, and exhausted retry state. Expired advice remains a zero delay instead of triggering local backoff.
## Testing
Add coverage for header parsing, deadline countdown and expiry, error mapping after exhausted HTTP retries, and delayed stream retry notifications. Update Responses and remote compaction tests to verify that HTTP retries honor `Retry-After`.
GitOrigin-RevId: a2eff02946e5524f29e06f7ba1431e3d339261a4
## 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
A single blob upload failure previously aborted the file upload, even for a temporary `503` response or an interrupted stream.
## What changed
- Retry `503` responses and timeout, connection, body, or request errors, with at most five attempts within a shared five-minute deadline.
- Honor `x-ms-retry-after-ms` and `Retry-After`, falling back to backoff when no valid server delay is available.
- Reopen the contents for each retry while reusing the same file record and upload URL. Preserve the initial read permission check and reopen MCP file streams under the same sandbox policy.
- Record retry, recovery, and terminal failure events with a fresh client request ID for each attempt.
## Testing
Add coverage for recovery after `503` responses and interrupted streams, attempt and deadline limits, non-retryable responses, retry delay parsing, and unique request IDs. Extend the restricted-read MCP upload test to verify that both attempts send the complete file contents.
GitOrigin-RevId: 78089ecfd5076313f5784cbbc864df12d082e3b1
## Why
Destination restrictions and policy revocation must remain effective during redirects, response body reads, and established WebSocket traffic. Policy denials must also survive error handling so callers do not retry them or report a revoked operation as successful.
## What changed
- Route managed HTTP clients through a shared `RequestBuilder` and policy-aware execution, checking each redirect destination before route resolution and retaining a network permit while consuming response bodies.
- Guard WebSocket connection setup, reads, and writes with revocable permits, including independent wakeups for split readers and writers.
- Preserve `TransportError::Policy` through HTTP, SSE, and realtime error handling, and treat policy denials as non-retryable.
- Keep the supplied network policy in plugin startup HTTP requests and propagate response body failures from backend and plugin requests.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for rejection before connecting, revocation during redirect routing and streamed body reads, split WebSocket revocation, realtime writer error propagation, and revoked plugin upload responses.
GitOrigin-RevId: fba36700444c98a8364c09b4dc5452c4d78a90fb
## Why
`invalid_prompt` responses were classified as generic invalid requests, losing the server's specific error classification.
## What changed
Add `InvalidPrompt` variants to the API and core error types and serialize the core protocol classification as `invalid_prompt`. Recognize the code in HTTP 400 responses, wrapped WebSocket errors, and SSE `response.failed` events while preserving server messages and keeping the error non-retryable. Map it to `other` in the app-server v2 protocol.
## Testing
Extend coverage for typed error mapping, missing and blank messages, protocol conversion, and guardian retry handling. Exercise HTTP and SSE failures in core integration tests, asserting the error message, serialized classification, and a single request without retry.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5d9a299a013b06158a4dc27a4054f3dbc5fd0f4d
## Why
Failed image requests discarded the `x-codex-imagegen-request-id` header, leaving failure analytics without the request ID.
## What changed
Carry the request ID through `ImageRequestError` and backend errors for image generation and editing. Preserve it on failed image generation items for HTTP errors, response decoding errors, and responses with no image data.
## Testing
Extend the app-server failure test to verify that a request ID returned with an HTTP 500 response reaches `codex_image_generation_event` analytics.
GitOrigin-RevId: 57cddacc0221e5b58877ac375d5eca0afb99d853
## Why
Standalone web search selected a proxy route only for the initial endpoint. Redirect destinations can require a different system proxy route.
## What changed
- Add `RouteAwareClientPool` support to `ReqwestTransport` for both buffered and streaming requests, and use it for standalone web search.
- Preserve default Codex headers and Cloudflare cookie handling across routes, while retaining the default client behavior when route-aware handling is disabled or Codex is sandboxed.
- Share request construction so URL authentication and header precedence follow `reqwest` semantics, applying them once before redirects and TLS retries.
- Map route-aware failures to transport errors and remove request URLs from those errors.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for redirects through distinct proxies, preservation of POST bodies and default headers, URL authentication and header precedence, and transport error classification without URL leakage.
GitOrigin-RevId: 19a10a62118846db09dd95265dc277e54aac09ef
## Why
Standalone web search used a default HTTP client, bypassing the configured system proxy route when `respect_system_proxy` was enabled.
## What changed
Pass the configured `HttpClientFactory` to the web search tool and create its client asynchronously for the provider's search URL using the API route policy. Export and reuse `SEARCH_ENDPOINT` so route selection and search requests use the same endpoint.
## Testing
Add an isolated regression test with environment proxies removed and a mock system proxy. Verify that standalone web search reaches the proxy and returns its result in the follow-up model request.
GitOrigin-RevId: 3b64803a777b9d1eb0ccf694e06658b0fd562129
## Why
Realtime WebSockets connected directly, bypassing the configured proxy policy for Voice's WebRTC sideband.
## What changed
Pass the configured `HttpClientFactory` into `RealtimeWebsocketClient` and connect through the shared `WebSocketConnector`. Add support for supplying an existing Rustls configuration to preserve custom CA handling and Windows platform trust.
## Testing
Add an integration test that enables `respect_system_proxy`, starts a WebRTC conversation, and verifies that the sideband establishes its session through an HTTP `CONNECT` proxy and closes successfully.
GitOrigin-RevId: d974c9275d7fe29f388d56a9d5d8ce0c483eb8d0
## Why
Interleaved speaker transcripts can fragment handoff context, and delayed final transcripts can overwrite newer speech.
## What changed
- Reconcile V3 transcript deltas and finals with the latest entry for the same speaker.
- Replace accumulated text only when the final transcript extends it, preserving newer speech when a final arrives late.
- Start a new entry after each completed utterance, keeping repeated speech and final-only turns distinct even when empty deltas arrive.
- Preserve live transcript notifications and legacy protocol behavior.
## Testing
Add unit coverage for interleaved speakers across reconnects, either completion order, repeated utterances, final-only turns, and empty deltas. Add app-server integration coverage for expanded and delayed finals, checking live notifications and reconciled handoff context.
GitOrigin-RevId: 961729281f61b95fd3e0c5cc3ec72512987980b3
## 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
## What changed
Replace `is_retryable()` with `retry_delay(retry_count)`, which returns `None` for terminal errors and a delay for retryable errors. Prefer server advice when present; otherwise use exponential backoff with jitter. Keep `server_retry_delay()` for callers that need only the server-provided delay.
Route sampling and remote compaction errors through the shared response stream handler, which now checks retryability and obtains the delay together. Preserve server-only retry timing when the retry budget is exhausted.
## Testing
Add coverage for attempt-dependent backoff, zero-duration server advice, and terminal errors that remain non-retryable despite server advice. Update API mapping and provider tests to use the combined retry API.
GitOrigin-RevId: 903f92935e71dea043afe1fad8ccb9389471aa75
## Why
Using Responses Lite does not establish whether a model accepts reasoning-effort `configuration_update` items. Unsupported models need to use the selected request-level effort, including when resuming history containing saved updates.
## What changed
- Add `supports_reasoning_effort_updates` model metadata, defaulting to `false`.
- Require the override feature, an OpenAI provider, and explicit model support for reasoning effort updates, independently of `use_responses_lite`.
- Filter saved configuration updates from unsupported requests without changing persisted history.
- Clear the pinned effort baseline when sampling with an unsupported model so returning to a supported model establishes a fresh baseline. Compaction uses the selected effort without clearing the pin.
## Testing
Add coverage for supported models with either Responses mode, unsupported-model history filtering over HTTP and WebSocket, switching to an unsupported model and back, and compaction versus sampling pin behavior. Verify missing capability metadata defaults to `false`.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8a0fbc141964bd854dbcdd6f31e1c8e97697cf22
## Why
Streaming `bio_policy` failures were classified as generic invalid requests, losing their policy-specific classification.
## What changed
- Add `BioPolicy` errors across the API and core protocol, recognizing streaming failures and HTTP 400 responses, including wrapped WebSocket errors.
- Preserve server messages and use a biological-risk fallback when the message is missing or blank.
- Treat bio policy errors as non-retryable in core and guardian handling, and classify them in diagnostics and telemetry.
- Map `BioPolicy` to `other` in the app-server v2 protocol.
## Testing
Add coverage for error classification, message preservation and fallbacks, HTTP and wrapped WebSocket responses, guardian retry decisions, and app-server conversion. Extend the core integration test to verify that bio policy failures emit a typed error and complete the turn after a single request.
GitOrigin-RevId: 78c2647e8fc8f80297cb8a23fff06ab141099632
## Why
Model catalog decode errors can include the full response body and payload values from deserialization errors. Catalog request deadlines also report a generic timeout instead of a request timeout.
## What changed
- Report only the JSON error category, line, column, and response byte count when model catalog decoding fails.
- Return `CodexErr::RequestTimeout` when the model catalog refresh deadline expires.
## Testing
Add regression tests for invalid response shapes, large payload values, malformed and truncated JSON, and a delayed catalog response that must return `RequestTimeout`.
GitOrigin-RevId: 6fe5111a3e3b113d79942b3c213f8e94d773eb5a
## Why
HTTP callers currently cannot bound response bodies. Callers accepting provider-controlled model catalogs need a size limit before decoding the response.
## What changed
- Add per-request `response_body_limit_bytes` for buffered, streaming, and error responses, leaving requests unbounded by default. Reject oversized declared lengths early and count observed bytes across chunks.
- Return a non-retryable `ResponseTooLarge` error that reports only the byte limit. Preserve HTTP status and headers when a bounded error body fails to read without exceeding the limit.
- Expose `ModelsClient::list_models_raw` to fetch bytes and an optional ETag using provider authentication and retries, with an optional body limit. Keep existing `list_models` decoding behavior.
## Testing
Add HTTP fixture tests covering size boundaries, chunked and missing-length responses, early rejection, stream termination, interrupted bodies, error text decoding, and request isolation. Add a models-client test verifying that limits survive authentication retries without affecting subsequent ordinary requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 61b8940bc8a549588cee6865a3b5d1cff789074d
## What changed
- Replace dedicated Guardian endpoints with `/responses`, sending `x-codex-guardian: reviewer` or `x-codex-guardian: classifier` for eligible Codex backend requests over HTTP and WebSocket.
- Add model-scoped thread headers, recheck backend authentication on each request attempt, and reconnect WebSockets when the applicable headers change.
- Retain `features.guardianv2.free_guardian` for configuration compatibility while removing its routing gate; the backend now controls Guardian billing.
## Testing
Update tests for reviewer and classifier headers, model and authentication scoping, HTTP fallback, WebSocket reuse, and parent-response metadata across retries.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1c2b3c458ab77fb40aae4ee6784f6d827c60e76c
## Why
`slow_down` errors were treated as terminal server overloads, while exhausted credit balances and spend limits fell through to retryable stream errors.
## What changed
- Classify `slow_down` as a retryable rate limit in HTTP 503 responses and SSE failures, preserving the server message and parsing retry delays from SSE error messages.
- Map `credit_balance_exhausted`, `organization_spend_limit_exceeded`, and `project_spend_limit_exceeded` SSE errors to quota exhaustion so they terminate without retries.
## Testing
Extend tests to cover HTTP error classification and retryability, `slow_down` stream retry exhaustion and message-provided delays, and a single `UsageLimitExceeded` error with no retries for each quota error code.

## 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.

## Why
Running code-mode cells can request Guardian review while the next response is in flight. Clearing the response ID before that response emits `response.created` leaves those reviews without a `parent_response_id`.
## What changed
Keep the latest response ID received in the turn until a later `response.created` replaces it, including across sampling retries.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for reviews before and after a response handoff and for a fresh turn that must not inherit the previous turn's ID. Update retry coverage to expect the last known parent when the retry supplies no response ID.

## Why
Windows release packages need the voice helper and native audio libraries. Realtime TLS connections on fresh Windows installations also need platform certificate validation so Windows can retrieve missing trusted roots on demand.
## What changed
- Build and sign the voice helper and audio DLLs for Windows x64 and ARM64, bundle a pinned Microsoft CRT DLL, and verify signatures and runtime receipts before packaging.
- Add verified, pinned Cygwin and native build tools plus MSVC linker, compiler, and path handling fixes for the Windows Bazel builds.
- Include voice resources in primary release archives and WinGet packages. Preserve WinGet executable names, update manifest hashes, and recognize the package root through matching entrypoint metadata. Keep Python runtime wheels voice-free to preserve their existing Windows support floor.
- Use Windows platform TLS validation for realtime WebSockets when no custom CA bundle is configured, preserving custom CA behavior.
## Testing
Add coverage for build-input integrity and unsafe paths, signed Windows runtime assembly, WinGet file and hash preservation, package discovery, and TLS trust selection, untrusted certificate rejection, and hostname validation.

## What changed
Carry optional `available_access_programs` metadata through model information, presets, caches, and the TUI, and expose it as `availableAccessPrograms` in app-server `model/list` responses. Update the generated JSON schemas, TypeScript types, and Python models.
Preserve the distinction between missing metadata and an empty `cyber` list. Ignore unknown cyber program names when reading the catalog so new server programs do not prevent older clients from loading it. Discovery metadata does not grant access; inference still enforces authorization.
## Testing
Add coverage for absent, null, empty, and populated metadata, unknown program names, and app-server serialization. Extend cache tests and verify that online refreshes persist changed access metadata even when the catalog ETag stays unchanged.

## Why
HTTP 429 responses for exhausted quota, credit balances, and spending or usage limits were reported as retry-limit failures instead of usage-limit errors.
## What changed
Parse the API error's `code` and map `insufficient_quota`, `credit_balance_exhausted`, `organization_spend_limit_exceeded`, `project_spend_limit_exceeded`, and `organization_usage_limit_exceeded` to `CodexErr::QuotaExceeded`. Also recognize `insufficient_quota` in the error's `type` field.
## Testing
Add a regression test covering all recognized quota errors and verifying that `rate_limit_exceeded` and `slow_down` HTTP 429 errors retain their existing retry-limit mapping.

## 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.

## What changed
Parse optional `generation_id` values from image API responses and carry the selected image's ID through the image generation tool into analytics events. Keep the ID out of serialized extension items, JSON schemas, and TypeScript types. Responses without an ID remain supported.
## Testing
Add coverage for distinct IDs in multi-image responses and responses without IDs. Extend analytics and app-server tests to verify that the selected image's ID reaches analytics, and item tests to verify that it is omitted from serialization and TypeScript types.

## Why
When no healthy pooled WebSocket is available, classification waits for a new connection to open and can stall on its handshake.
## What changed
- Use HTTP streaming when no healthy idle WebSocket is ready, and replenish the pool in the background with a five-minute cooldown after connection timeouts.
- Share concurrency limits and the sampling retry budget across both transports, and bound the wait for HTTP response headers.
- Cancel superseded requests while awaiting response headers and stop SSE polling when the consumer closes.
## Testing
Add coverage for HTTP fallback and recovery after cooldown, shared transport capacity, stalled response headers, and cancellation before headers or during body draining. Update sampler and extension tests to cover fallback after socket expiry, authentication changes, and transient failures.
