## Summary
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/13860 changed the serialized output
format of Unified Exec. This PR reverts those changes and some related
test changes
## Testing
- [x] Update tests
---------
Co-authored-by: Codex <noreply@openai.com>
## Summary
- Remove the stale `?` after `AbsolutePathBuf::join` in the unified exec
integration test helper.
## Root Cause
- `AbsolutePathBuf::join` was made infallible, but
`core/tests/suite/unified_exec.rs` still treated it as a `Result`, which
broke the Windows test build for the `all` integration test target.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
unified_exec_resolves_relative_workdir`
## Summary
- Convert unified exec integration tests that can run against the remote
executor to use the remote-aware test harness.
- Create workspace directories through the executor filesystem for
remote runs.
- Install `python3` and `zsh` in the remote test container so restored
Python/zsh-based test commands work in fresh Ubuntu containers.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all unified_exec_defaults_to_pipe`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all unified_exec_can_enable_tty`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all unified_exec`
- Remote on `codex-remote`: `source scripts/test-remote-env.sh && cd
codex-rs && cargo test -p codex-core --test all unified_exec`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
## Description
This PR changes guardian transcript compaction so oversized
conversations no longer collapse into a nearly empty placeholder.
Before this change, if the retained user history alone exceeded the
message budget, guardian would replace the entire transcript with
`<transcript omitted to preserve budget for planned action>`!
That meant approvals, especially network approvals, could lose the
recent tool call and tool result that explained what guardian was
actually reviewing. Now we keep a compact but usable transcript instead
of dropping it all.
### Before

>>> APPROVAL REQUEST END
```
### After
```
The following is the Codex agent history whose request action you are assessing...

[8] user: If the request looks correct, go ahead and try again with network access.
[9] tool shell call: {"command":["curl","-X","POST","https://example.com/upload"],"cwd":"/repo"}
[10] tool shell result: sandbox blocked outbound network access
>>> TRANSCRIPT END
