## What changed
- Add a `test_threads` option to `codex_rust_crate` that sets
`RUST_TEST_THREADS` for sharded integration tests when configured.
- Run the `core` and `app-server` Bazel integration tests with one Rust test
thread on macOS, leaving the thread count unchanged on other platforms.

## Why
A model-provided shell path should select the requested shell type without
allowing that path to determine which executable Codex runs.
## What changed
- Resolve model-provided shells through Codex's normal shell discovery and
fallback logic after detecting their type.
- Keep the configured packaged zsh executable when the zsh-fork feature is
enabled and the file exists.
- Update shell, unified exec, and network approval expectations to use the
resolved local executable and arguments.
GitOrigin-RevId: ebe6f7eec2cfd1c0548d5bf1a26b7a30dba02cc2
## What changed
- Register `send_user_message_async` as `DirectModelOnly` so supported models can call it directly without exposing it through code mode.
- Exercise the async message flow with a code-mode-only model configuration and verify that the tool remains directly visible.
GitOrigin-RevId: ce22d5f63471ce90ac55ae2f3d0048f6cda57e01
## Why
Environment-owned permission profiles and workspace roots must remain effective
without being persisted or restored as thread-owned settings.
## What changed
- Keep thread settings snapshots and restore data separate from the effective
configuration supplied by the primary environment.
- Use resolved environment permissions, active profiles, workspace roots, and
network policy when building turn context and session events.
- Preserve environment selections when agents are evicted, resumed, or spawned,
and validate owner configuration when it becomes ready.
- Start memory initialization only after the primary environment is configured.
## Testing
- Extend remote-environment and multi-agent tests to cover settings persistence,
owner permission profiles, workspace roots, spawning, eviction, and resume.
GitOrigin-RevId: d82f126981cd0190233020bbdd61d96c70558868
## Why
Reducing a heredoc shell script to its inner executable lets a prefix rule for
that executable apply to the entire wrapper, even though the full script was
not parsed as a plain command.
## What changed
- Fall back to evaluating the complete shell wrapper when plain-command parsing
fails, including for heredoc scripts.
- Keep these commands sandboxed when only the inner executable is allowed.
- Propose the full wrapper as the exec policy amendment when approval is needed.
## Testing
Added exec policy, Unix escalation, and approval scenario coverage for unparsed
and heredoc shell wrappers.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8f65133acb6b7c638263917e1d9137e45990772c
## Why
Repository configuration can cause even read-only Git commands to execute
helpers, so Git command arguments alone are not enough to establish trust.
## What changed
- Remove Git commands from the known-safe command classification on Unix and
Windows, including commands nested in supported shells.
- Under the `unless-trusted` approval policy, require approval for commands such
as `git status` unless an explicit execution policy rule allows them.
## Testing
- Cover direct, shell-wrapped, absolute-path, and PowerShell Git commands.
- Verify `git status` approval behavior with and without an explicit allow rule.
GitOrigin-RevId: dd04e0ddca0c56ba64ae64abe6e658bae7bf5a4d
## Why
New non-ephemeral threads have no persisted rollout or preview until their first
turn, so moving them into a section could leave them absent from section-filtered
thread lists.
## What changed
- Materialize and flush a non-ephemeral thread before applying an explicit
section move.
- Include explicitly sectioned threads with empty previews in section-filtered
queries, and update the partial indexes to cover them.
## Testing
- Add an app-server test that moves a newly started thread into and out of the
pinned section before its first turn.
- Cover empty-preview threads in recency and section-position query tests.
GitOrigin-RevId: aa3c4daf9890f06c08b93cd60f146099cbc6cfb2
## What changed
Replace the custom `HeadTailBuffer::drain` helper with `std::mem::take` at
the output collection call site. This moves the buffered output out while
resetting the shared buffer to its default empty state.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7a93d1312f2cea0d7913a5264eeb01726b45e0ea
## What changed
- Emit `codex_control_tool_call_event` for built-in control tools such as
`request_user_input`, `update_plan`, `view_image`, and goal tools.
- Record correlation and timing metadata plus completed, failed, rejected, or
interrupted outcomes, and include these calls in turn-level tool counts.
- Keep tool arguments out of control-tool analytics events.
## Testing
- Extend the app-server turn profile test to cover successful and failed
control tools, event correlation, turn counts, and argument exclusion.
GitOrigin-RevId: c20f73dfb79654e31b4b5040eddb0e0d91cae10d
## What changed
- Add a focused Code Mode integration test with Guardian transcript images enabled and enhanced Node REPL transcripts disabled.
- Verify that the Guardian request and parent request omit both the screenshot and its surrounding transcript markers.
- Remove this configuration from the broader parameterized transcript-evidence test.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1309de12337a28a7e1d49eca509ba73207d4d9be
## What changed
Move circular-value coverage for the `text()` helper from the core integration
suite to the in-process code mode runtime tests. Verify that stringification
returns no content and surfaces the V8 circular-structure error without needing
a mock server or network access.
GitOrigin-RevId: d506591af5ae8ce0a8c7305d633a7b0f2e458335
## What changed
Update the unified image budget integration test to resize a `6401x1` image to
`6000x1` and verify that the model receives the corresponding resize notice.
GitOrigin-RevId: 401e9728dc4bd6f0122bbc62f996a0b961e22b3a
## What changed
- Keep validating normalized dynamic tool visibility for both Responses and Responses Lite.
- Exercise the normalized dynamic tool call and its returned metadata only for Responses Lite.
- Let the standard Responses case complete in a single mocked response without expecting a dynamic tool request.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7793e6f6df07fc58c2976a773a1198496af08dfd
## What changed
Stop setting explicit one-second `timeout_ms` and `yield_time_ms` values in the
mock command calls. The shell command and unified exec variants now use their
default timing behavior while testing cyber exec policy.
GitOrigin-RevId: b1c25304ca47e7b08f023fe678467fc00330158b
## What changed
Use a 2049-by-32 image in the Guardian transcript evidence test and verify that
it is resized to 2048-by-32 while preserving its aspect ratio.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4b1b404c0fc76c46739379ef154e629bf8d669f3
## What changed
- Parameterize `HeadTailBuffer` by a const `MAX_BYTES` value and derive its
head and tail budgets from that value.
- Keep `UNIFIED_EXEC_OUTPUT_MAX_BYTES` as the default capacity for production
call sites.
- Update focused buffer tests to select their smaller capacities through the
type parameter.
GitOrigin-RevId: 106e81a2c2db935f7f77a4f301ef591017958287
## What changed
- Co-locate the Bash and zsh snapshot-script tests with
`codex-shell-command`, where `snapshot_script` is implemented.
- Add `tempfile` as a dev dependency for the relocated tests.
- Keep the higher-level snapshot lifecycle tests in `codex-core`.
GitOrigin-RevId: 6d5e9ab95962722f7c89ea40512bd70ee81d8da2
## What changed
- Expose `send_user_message_async` to root agents whenever the selected model advertises support for it.
- Retain `send_async_message` as a removed compatibility flag so existing configuration is accepted without controlling tool availability.
- Update the async message test to cover model-driven tool exposure without enabling the legacy flag.
GitOrigin-RevId: 558b427c2b203a057dd7c836e0ec702ae6134346
## Why
Bedrock sessions that use the AWS SDK credential chain need a way to recover when credentials expire during a request.
## What changed
- Add `aws.auth_refresh` provider configuration with an `aws` command, arguments, and a configurable timeout.
- Run the command for refreshable Bedrock authentication failures, reload the SDK credentials, re-sign the request, and retry it.
- Share refresh state across matching provider configurations so concurrent failures invoke the command only once. Bearer tokens, command auth, and static environment credentials do not use this recovery path.
## Testing
- Add coverage for configuration validation, refreshable error classification, concurrent refresh sharing, and an end-to-end retry signed with refreshed credentials.
GitOrigin-RevId: 0302fe3aabdbc1097e7bd62a74d407ba38a3cc57
## What changed
- Add environment-provided MCP restrictions for configured and plugin-provided servers.
- Disable attachment-scoped servers while their environment configuration is pending, failed, or unselected, while preserving selected-plugin access and the controller-owned Apps server.
- Apply the resolved policy to runtime startup, model tool exposure, telemetry, OAuth flows, and skill dependency installation.
## Testing
- Cover policy filtering for configured and plugin servers, environment state transitions, Apps ownership, and managed OAuth rejection.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7ca5d4dda14068e758497f88835d5cba685e159e
## What changed
- Execute hook-triggered MCP calls through the runtime's latest connection set instead of preparing a separate catalog-bound call.
- Keep hook calls from waiting for server startup or reconnecting, and reject disconnected servers immediately.
- Apply the shorter of the hook-requested timeout and the server's configured tool timeout.
## Testing
- Update connection manager tests to cover non-waiting calls and disabled tool filters.
GitOrigin-RevId: 3166b2d1e26d9ae2b8b3a648b4d0897cc260eb93
## What changed
- Add `send_user_message_async` for root agents when the async-message feature is enabled and the model advertises tool support.
- Emit the supplied text as an asynchronous agent message and immediately return an accepted result so the turn can continue.
- Keep the user-visible update out of the model's input context.
## Testing
- Add an integration test covering tool registration, item events, continued turn execution, and model context.
GitOrigin-RevId: 13d5168cb8cd6742db17bb74a15c910994e9c98b
## What changed
- Add an optional `delivery` field to agent message events and app-server
`agentMessage` items, with `"async"` identifying a user-visible message sent
without ending the current turn.
- Preserve the marker through legacy event conversion, thread history
materialization, replay, and generated JSON and TypeScript schemas.
- Require delivery of async agent message completion notifications on the
in-process app-server transport.
## Testing
- Cover preservation of async delivery metadata in thread history.
- Cover delivery-required classification for async agent messages.
GitOrigin-RevId: f92ba25de1293ee271404badfdf0d117d6530329
## Why
An unfamiliar executable can ignore its arguments, so trust in an apparent
inner command must not implicitly trust the executable that runs it.
## What changed
- Evaluate unfamiliar shell executables alongside their parsed commands when
determining unified exec approval requirements. Inner commands can add
restrictions, but cannot grant trust to the executable.
- Include the executable in reusable approval keys so approval for one custom
shell does not apply to another.
- Parse literal PowerShell scripts without launching the requested executable,
preserving command policy checks before approval.
## Testing
Add cross-platform coverage for spoofed shell paths, allowed and forbidden
inner commands, explicit custom-shell approval, and session approval isolation.
GitOrigin-RevId: 0dd2c7e9a2ac30965ef5fe5de1a8d2968bb5f9d0
## What changed
- Carry selected plugin identities from MCP discovery into per-turn extension data, limited to capability roots that are ready for the turn.
- Annotate executor skill catalog entries with the matching plugin ID and `user` scope.
- Include that attribution in `skill_invocation` analytics for both explicit and implicit executor skill invocations.
## Testing
- Extend the executor skills app-server test to verify plugin ID, skill scope, and invocation type for explicit and implicit analytics events.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9345600ae29bcb8eb894fffd2d6f7b05f22ebf74
## Why
Agent roles should customize a child agent without expanding the authority or changing the provider configuration inherited from its parent session.
## What changed
- Apply only supported role overrides for model behavior, developer instructions, personality, service tier, and capability reductions.
- Preserve parent-owned permissions, model providers, endpoints, MCP servers, notifications, and other unrestricted configuration.
- Keep managed feature requirements effective when a role disables capabilities, and reject symlinked user role files.
- Use the same bounded role application path for both multi-agent implementations and resumed agents.
## Testing
Add coverage for authority preservation, managed feature requirements, symlink rejection, provider inheritance, and provider routing after resume.
GitOrigin-RevId: c528d615b691f9c02bfbc21154d514ea07743010
## What changed
- Execute `mcp_tool` hook handlers through the session's shared MCP runtime, including managed hook configurations.
- Restrict hook calls to already-connected, cataloged, and policy-allowed tools. Unavailable servers fail immediately without starting or reconnecting them.
- Pass session metadata to hook tools, cap hook timeouts by the server timeout, and invoke hooks without model-tool approval or recursive hook dispatch.
- Record handler type and execution mode in hook telemetry, and mark memory as externally influenced after successful or blocking MCP hooks when configured.
## Testing
- Added end-to-end coverage for prompt interpolation, hidden tools, blocking decisions, unavailable servers, thread metadata, approval bypass, and memory-mode handling.
- Added MCP runtime coverage for startup readiness, tool filters, catalog revisions, and managed connector policy.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1647cb801ebc5fa385c7bda9d9c266a389c611b8
## What changed
- Add the under-development `send_async_message` feature, disabled by default.
- Expose the feature key in the generated configuration schema.
GitOrigin-RevId: dd27483f2ef802dba49e47f3ce03146ee6a58f1e
## Why
When a local proxy request disconnects before network approval completes, the
owning tool call needs a model-visible explanation instead of remaining tied to
the abandoned request.
## What changed
- Track disconnect timing while plain HTTP and CONNECT requests await policy
decisions.
- Cancel the owning execution and report how long the request waited when it
disconnects before approval completes.
- Preserve an explicit approval outcome when disconnect cleanup runs afterward.
## Testing
Added unit coverage for disconnect tracking and outcome precedence, plus
end-to-end coverage for plain HTTP and CONNECT requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: b354b29bbe86f38e252fcaf529541f177480136b
## What changed
- Add a public `snapshot_script` helper to `codex-shell-command` for Bash,
Zsh, POSIX shell, and PowerShell, returning `None` for Command Prompt.
- Update `codex-core` and its shell snapshot tests to use the shared helper
without changing snapshot behavior.
GitOrigin-RevId: 779b9dc964635b717922ea9f5646b94c4dbb0da1
## Why
Thread settings could replace an owner-provided environment configuration with
`FromThread`, allowing the thread to take ownership of that configuration.
## What changed
Reject environment settings updates that change an existing owner-provided
configuration to `FromThread`.
## Testing
Cover preview and turn settings updates for pending, ready, and failed
owner-provided environments.
GitOrigin-RevId: c516954819447ceb29e2ff9f29fe781ca101ae54
## What changed
- Let model providers identify recoverable authentication errors and refresh their own authentication state before falling back to `AuthManager` recovery.
- Apply provider recovery to both HTTP and WebSocket response requests, with at most one provider-owned recovery attempt per request.
- Preserve existing `401 Unauthorized` handling as the default for providers that do not customize recovery.
## Testing
- Add coverage for successful and failed provider recovery, including the single-attempt bound and preservation of the original unauthorized error.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9a737e3be96354699586f97dd88e544a45082969
## What changed
- Add a dedicated developer policy for Guardian reviews of Node REPL browser and computer-use actions.
- Inject the policy once before the first eligible Node REPL approval and retain it when the reviewer session is reused.
- Include Node REPL policy eligibility in the reviewer reuse key so sessions are not reused across incompatible model settings.
- Keep the approval request itself on the generic planned-action format.
## Testing
- Cover first-action injection, reuse after a shell review, repeated Node REPL reviews, and ineligible parent models through the production approval path.
GitOrigin-RevId: bfce190ff8599788aa85e388cc6a959d27fb489c
## Why
A stored permission grant may allow access to a parent while explicitly denying
a child path. A later request for that child must not be treated as already
approved by the broader parent grant.
## What changed
- Compare materialized permission profiles without intersecting away denied or
reopened paths before deciding that a request is preapproved.
- Execute preapproved commands with the stored grant itself so its denied paths
remain enforced.
- Fail closed when permission profiles cannot be materialized.
## Testing
Added unit and integration coverage for turn and session grants across
`exec_command`, `shell_command`, and `apply_patch`, including approval-disabled
and `Never` approval modes.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5455880328a89c7958f859c7ce87805dff9704fb
## What changed
- Return retained unified-exec output as one contiguous byte buffer.
- Use the buffer directly for sandbox-denial checks, removing intermediate
chunk aggregation and an unnecessary owned string conversion.
- Update the output-retention test to assert the flattened snapshot.
GitOrigin-RevId: 84eacee0166b86d3cb2d6a37e96125977fad0267
## What changed
- Reconnect frameless bidirectional WebRTC sideband sockets after unexpected transport loss with capped exponential backoff.
- Preserve pending text or handoff output and bounded transcript state across reconnects.
- Treat `404 Not Found` and `410 Gone` handshake responses as terminal session completion, and preserve HTTP status information from failed WebSocket handshakes.
- Bound Realtime delegation input and transcript fields while retaining the most relevant portion of each.
## Testing
- Add unit coverage for reconnect backoff, terminal status handling, transport error classification, transcript continuity and truncation, and pending outbound messages.
- Add an end-to-end WebRTC conversation test covering an unclean disconnect, reconnect, transcript reconciliation, outbound progress during sustained inbound traffic, and terminal session completion.
GitOrigin-RevId: 544fd7e542c3434d0bb42cfbcc7143604419a037
## What changed
- Add an optional `connectorId` to `mcpServer/resource/read`.
- Forward the selected connector through `x-codex-turn-metadata` for threaded and threadless resource reads, restricting hosted app resources to that connector.
- Update the generated protocol schemas and app-server documentation.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5cc94d703abbbb6086665910c1c9ed5dc7075210
## Why
`node_repl` screenshots are nested tool results and do not appear in the parent
conversation history, so Guardian v2 transcript image collection could miss
them.
## What changed
- Allow Guardian v2 to enable bounded, thread-scoped `node_repl` image capture
when transcript images are configured.
- Add retained `node_repl` screenshots to review requests when transcript
sources include tool outputs, while deduplicating images and keeping them out
of the parent turn input.
## Testing
- Add an integration test covering screenshot capture without the synchronous
Guardian transcript feature flags and verifying that screenshots stay out of
the parent request.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5f70c5f2e80389aa8b2a286c3b7f9b1104865486
## What changed
- Pass metrics bound to the active turn's model to approval-review contributors.
- Add counter support to `ExtensionMetrics` while preserving host session attribution.
- Record Guardian v2 tool-call score lag and count stale-score fallbacks with the `score_lag` reason.
## Testing
- Cover counter forwarding and session metadata tags.
- Verify Guardian v2 metric samples for current and stale scores.
GitOrigin-RevId: 0ec34736d29d2e37ed217a27e773b4f6230ae38a
## Why
Custom model providers that do not require OpenAI authentication could inherit
ambient authentication headers, including the bearer token and
`ChatGPT-Account-ID`, and send them to the custom provider endpoint.
## What changed
- Resolve providers without `requires_openai_auth` or configured `auth` as
unauthenticated.
- Continue to honor an explicit `experimental_bearer_token` or command-resolved
provider authentication.
- Preserve ambient authentication for OpenAI providers.
## Testing
Added unit and request-level coverage for custom, explicitly authenticated, and
OpenAI provider authentication behavior.
GitOrigin-RevId: d89a79604338bc660a3edb2af0068cfa9b694fa2
## Why
Compaction can remove the tool-call events that associate an MCP app widget with
the tool, account, and URI needed to authorize later resource reads.
## What changed
- Store a bounded MCP resource-origin checkpoint with each compacted rollout.
- Restore the checkpoint when resuming a session so existing widgets remain
readable after compaction and restart.
- Discard saved origins when rollback rewrites history across the compaction
boundary, and reject oversized or invalid checkpoints during restoration.
## Testing
- Extend the app-server MCP resource-origin test to compact a paginated thread,
continue the conversation, and read the original widgets before and after a
restart.
- Verify rollback clears provenance that no longer matches retained history.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7f91c6202fe8d9be21c78dda42fa205937c44263
## Why
App widgets need to read resources using the app and account context of the
tool call that produced them, including after a thread is restored.
## What changed
- Add an optional `originCallId` to `mcpServer/resource/read` requests and
return it on successful scoped reads.
- Track bounded provenance for successful app tool calls in thread history and
use the current tool binding, account link, and app policy when reading the
associated widget resource.
- Reject missing, mismatched, failed, or ambiguous origins, while keeping
app-only tools available for widget reads without exposing them to the model.
## Testing
Add app-server coverage for scoped widget reads across both history modes,
ephemeral and persistent threads, server restarts, app-only visibility, and
invalid origin cases.
GitOrigin-RevId: 11eaefc066b2a3b639599e4cbdef680233d150a2
## What changed
- Exclude descendant-authored `MESSAGE` progress updates from the history retained after remote compaction v2.
- Continue retaining descendant-authored tasks while omitting progress updates and final answers from subsequent requests.
## Testing
- Extend the remote compaction follow-up test to cover descendant progress updates and descendant-authored tasks.
GitOrigin-RevId: 3e3e60bb108d27e99e2a4c222eed4b9d02fd3829
## What changed
Start sampling for automatic idle `UserInput` requests without adding an empty
message to the input queue. Continue queuing automatic response-item input.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5d304aed9e7e165380b29b5b59d9245e97b40659
## Why
Collaboration guidance can change without changing the active mode or model, such as after a model catalog refresh. Tracking only the mode and model leaves the earlier guidance in retained history.
## What changed
- Include a hash of the rendered collaboration instructions in the world-state snapshot so changed guidance is appended to retained history once.
- Emit one empty collaboration fragment when guidance is removed, preventing stale instructions from remaining active without repeatedly clearing them.
- Refresh legacy snapshots that lack an instruction hash once on resume.
## Testing
Cover same-mode catalog updates, clearing missing or explicitly empty guidance, retained-history behavior, and cold resume from legacy snapshots.
GitOrigin-RevId: 69f690adeccd1fb9794a6b15647e6efae3fec4f6
## Why
Tree-sitter can represent brace expansions, globs, and escaped text as plain
words even though the shell changes them at runtime. Treating their source text
as literal argv could let a command match a safe-command check or allow rule
that does not match what will actually execute.
## What changed
- Reject unquoted Bash and Zsh words containing expansion, glob, or escape
syntax from literal command parsing, including heredoc command prefixes.
- Reject double-quoted escape sequences that the shell removes or interprets,
while continuing to accept quoted metacharacters that remain literal.
- Require approval for affected commands under `UnlessTrusted`, even when a
policy contains an allow rule for the unexpanded source text.
## Testing
Add parser and approval scenarios covering brace expansion, globs, escapes,
Zsh-specific syntax, heredocs, and quoted literals.
GitOrigin-RevId: 31f2c6062680c42ac65362e3f3eebfaaf4eb71da
## Why
Cold resumes and forks could lose the thread's active permission profile and
fall back to the current configured default.
## What changed
- Restore the latest persisted approval policy, approvals reviewer, and active
permission-profile ID when resuming or forking a thread.
- Re-resolve persisted profile IDs through current configuration and
requirements. Missing or invalid profiles fall back to the configured
default, while threads without a persisted profile continue to use current
configuration.
- Keep explicit permission and approval overrides ahead of persisted settings.
## Testing
Added coverage for legacy and paginated histories, settings updates, explicit
overrides, removed or changed profiles, requirement fallbacks, and forks.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2289af2f3206bf131a6ffe0e8447e8d402e76c47
## What changed
- Add the optional `active_permission_profile` field to `TurnContextItem` to record the built-in or named profile that produced the effective permission profile.
- Populate the field when serializing a turn context while preserving compatibility with records where it is absent.
## Testing
- Add coverage verifying that turn-context serialization stores the active permission profile.
GitOrigin-RevId: d69142ab1b26595ab406235f89818ef41370e963
## What changed
- Fetch recommendations from the Codex-specific `/ps/plugins/suggested/codex` endpoint and parse its compact response shape.
- Fetch the selected plugin's details before presenting an install request, using them to verify availability and populate connector metadata.
- Skip install elicitation when the selected recommendation is no longer available, and return a retryable response when its metadata cannot be verified.
## Testing
- Cover the new recommendation route and response shape.
- Cover metadata hydration for available plugins and rejection of unavailable plugins.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2b0e2d70572aae2b7cd8e458b42e9dd14be3dbaf
