## Why
Existing databases retain their journal mode, so selecting `DELETE` for new NFS databases leaves existing WAL databases unchanged.
## What changed
- Add the managed `unsafe_enforce_sqlite_journal_mode` requirement to migrate existing NFS databases before opening writable pools and require `DELETE` on each connection.
- Share migration code between startup and `codex migrate-nfs-db`, preserving WAL backups and resuming interrupted replacements, including lazily opened databases.
- Hold the migration lock through pool initialization and keep migration failures out of automatic corruption recovery.
- Preserve local logs behavior and skip legacy NFS logs cleanup when enforcement is enabled.
## Testing
Add coverage for requirement precedence, database settings, data and backup preservation across restarts, interrupted replacement recovery, refusal of active WAL databases, migration lock waiting, and local logs remaining in WAL mode.

## Why
Competing SQLite writers can cause database opening and writes to fail with `SQLITE_BUSY`. Deferred write transactions can also encounter contention after taking a read snapshot.
## What changed
- Add up to two retries with 100 ms and 200 ms delays for SQLite busy errors during pool opening, writer admission, and standalone writes.
- Use a shared `BEGIN IMMEDIATE` helper across state, thread history, and agent message board writes to acquire the writer slot before reading.
- Preserve bound arguments when retrying standalone writes, and commit writes using `RETURNING` before exposing their results. Retry transaction admission without replaying an already-started transaction.
## Testing
Add tests using real SQLite writer contention to verify recovery after a competing writer releases its lock. Queue tests cover enqueue, update, and delete, checking preserved payloads, single revision increments, and no duplicate messages or unintended deletions.
GitOrigin-RevId: ac5bd31a87c67cc47fb385bf3fa5435a54ff70f0
## Why
A stale read acknowledgement must not clear unread results published after the client’s snapshot or overwrite another read-state edit. Read state also needs to survive thread metadata rebuilds.
## What changed
- Add `thread_read_receipts` and state APIs to query read state, publish thread attention, and mark threads read or unread.
- Track the first unread turn and require matching revisions for explicit edits, returning the current state on conflicts. Allow manually marking even an empty thread unread.
- Retain the last published turn across acknowledgements to suppress duplicate delivery. Keep receipts independent of rebuildable metadata and remove them on thread deletion.
- Return initial read states without creating receipt rows.
## Testing
Add tests covering stale edits, thread-specific initial revisions, repeated unread marks, duplicate publication, persistence across metadata rebuilds and restarts, clearing a reverted turn’s unread position, and deleted-thread handling.
GitOrigin-RevId: fee8c05c20903b1d7aea7e8b61c9248c7f623a72
## Why
Failed Guardian review evidence was process-local, so restarting Codex lost the context needed for later diagnostic reports.
## What changed
- Persist failed-review records in SQLite before reviewer cleanup, retaining at most 64 records globally, eight per thread, and 8 MiB of evidence. Delete persisted evidence when its reviewed thread is deleted.
- Recover and deduplicate persisted and in-memory records for the reported task tree when uploading `auto-review-failures.jsonl`.
- Bound persistence attempts to 250 ms and retain an in-memory fallback when storage is unavailable. Keep capture gated by user opt-in and non-ephemeral sessions, and export evidence only when logs are included.
## Testing
Add coverage for persistence across reopen and process restart, retention limits, cascading deletion, busy-storage fallback, and report uploads with and without logs, including SQLite log failures.
GitOrigin-RevId: ea2da1818d4a5da3da29f211042ca45e834342bc
## What changed
Preserve the underlying error in `LocalStateDbStartupError` and use its error chain to decide whether CLI startup failures qualify for automatic database backup and recovery.
Replace corruption checks against error-message text with SQLite result-code classification, including SQLx extended result codes and directly wrapped `SqliteError` values.
## Testing
Update the embedded startup corruption test to verify that the startup error retains a detectable SQLite corruption cause and the failed database path.
GitOrigin-RevId: 6e8ecd0ee67f3c239183ddea3fc75c4e4cd5744a
## Why
A database can open successfully while containing corruption that startup previously missed. Detecting it before runtime initialization completes allows recoverable databases to be rebuilt while preserving the damaged files.
## What changed
- Run `PRAGMA quick_check(1)` when opening writable databases, with a 100 ms scan budget. Share attempts across cloned `SqliteConfig` instances by file identity so repeated opens skip validation and replacement files are checked again.
- Back up and rebuild runtime databases that support recovery. Report corruption without rebuilding thread history or other databases without an automatic recovery policy. Treat interrupted or locked checks as incomplete rather than confirmed corruption.
- Collect startup backups across recovery retries and include their locations in the app server warning. Explain that saved conversations can restore the thread list and history, while some database-only metadata may be unavailable.
- Record confirmed corruption in `codex.sqlite.corruption.count`.
## Testing
Add tests for recovery policies, backup preservation, validation caching and concurrency, cancelled and interrupted checks, and locked databases. Add app server coverage for recovery warnings and saved conversation restoration, a TUI warning snapshot, and message board post preservation.
GitOrigin-RevId: 43e26328888e0301def642d69bd324acee867566
## Why
Startup-only cleanup leaves expired logs in long-running sessions, and age-based retention alone does not limit database usage.
## What changed
Run cleanup in the background immediately after initialization and every 30 minutes. Start with the existing 10-day retention window, then halve it until occupied SQLite pages fit within a 64 MiB budget or the window reaches one second. Preserve logs within that final second even when they exceed the budget.
Exclude free pages from the budget so SQLite can reuse them, and retain the passive checkpoint after the first sweep. Stop the task when the runtime is dropped or the log pool is closed.
## Testing
Add tests for the 10-day boundary, repeated retention-window halving, free-page accounting, the one-second retention floor, immediate startup cleanup, and periodic cleanup without new writes or a restart. Update existing log tests to use current timestamps so background retention does not remove their fixtures.
GitOrigin-RevId: c6eeb5ec13006d4a03354e08322827429be53ce8
## Why
Thread name resolution performs a separate SQLite metadata lookup for each thread. Batch these reads to reduce database queries for large result sets.
## What changed
Add `StateRuntime::get_threads` and use it in `resolve_thread_names`. Fetch metadata in batches of at most 999 IDs to stay within SQLite's bind limit, skipping missing or invalid records independently so valid metadata remains available.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for reads spanning multiple batches, invalid and missing records, duplicate IDs, and empty input.
GitOrigin-RevId: a403416f1da5adea56705c70839850760d3eb550
## Why
Deleting logs leaves free SQLite pages available for reuse without shrinking the database file. Reclaim excess free space while preserving a reserve for future writes.
## What changed
- Start a background incremental-vacuum worker with `StateRuntime`, enabling reclamation only for the logs database. Use a per-home file lock to select one worker and wait for it to finish during shutdown.
- Reclaim pages when at least 64 MiB and 25% of the database are free, preserving a reserve of at least 16 MiB or 10% of the database.
- Use short transactions with page and cooperative time budgets, defer work on contention, and reduce batch sizes with exponential backoff when interrupted passes make no progress.
- Record reclamation counts, durations, and reclaimed pages in telemetry.
## Testing
Add a regression test that interrupts a vacuum commit, verifies foreground writes can resume without data loss, then confirms a resumed pass shrinks the database and passes `PRAGMA integrity_check`.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8421f87b0aeef6540eda5690c84216906673c72e
## What changed
- Replace the `ThreadArtifact` model and related exports with attachment terminology.
- Add `StateRuntime::add_thread_attachment` and `remove_thread_attachment` using SQLite transactions. Repeated additions for the same thread, attachment type, and identity key return the existing record without changing its payload or creation time.
- Enforce limits of 100 attachments per thread, 64 KiB per serialized payload, and 256 bytes each for nonblank attachment types and identity keys. Removal returns the deleted record or `NotFound` and frees capacity immediately. Both mutations reject unknown threads.
## Testing
Add tests for idempotency, thread isolation, removal outcomes, capacity reuse, invalid inputs, unknown threads, and concurrent additions creating exactly one record.
GitOrigin-RevId: a68fe5076832f071524f1b4fc87d08b96ac270b7
## What changed
- Add `memories.version` with `v1` as the default and `v2` as an opt-in selection.
- Route memory generation, summaries, and retrieval tools through the selected version. Store `v2` artifacts in `memories_v2` and lazily create a separate SQLite database, keeping jobs and outputs isolated while sharing the thread catalog.
- Preserve the initial memory version across extension config updates so summaries and retrieval tools use the same namespace.
- Clear both versions on memory reset and remove thread memory from both stores on thread deletion. Recognize both artifact roots in shell usage telemetry.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for version defaults and validation, independent job claims and outputs, deletion and reset across versions, and shell usage classification for both memory roots.
GitOrigin-RevId: aa799bf87ab6ec10c8f5668213931e57547d080b
## Why
SQLite log persistence needs visibility into batch size, write latency,
failures, and entries dropped before they reach the writer. Exporter
diagnostics must not feed back into the SQLite log sink and keep metric
exports active indefinitely.
## What changed
- Record write count, duration, batch bytes, entry count, largest-entry size,
and queue drops with bounded outcome tags.
- Add explicit byte histogram boundaries for log batch metrics.
- Filter OTLP transport noise and the benign unsolicited HTTP/2 PING warning
from SQLite log persistence to prevent export cycles while retaining other
HTTP/2 warnings.
## Testing
- Cover metric values, tags, queue-drop reasons, and histogram boundaries.
- Verify successful and failed OTLP HTTP and gRPC exports become idle instead
of generating recurring SQLite log-write metrics.
GitOrigin-RevId: a63224ae15945fe84adc977a8b7d55bb47a4de53
## Why
Diagnostic uploads skip the doctor attachment if report generation exceeds its
overall timeout. SQLite integrity scans can be delayed by large databases or
lock contention.
## What changed
- Give each database integrity scan a one-second deadline when collecting a
diagnostic attachment.
- Interrupt scans and lock waits at the deadline, preserve any corruption rows
already returned, and report an incomplete clean scan as a warning.
- Keep direct `codex doctor` integrity checks unbounded.
## Testing
- Cover interrupted scans, lock waits, retries without a deadline, and
corruption results returned before interruption.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4817fb459ac53953669a9ba5f03397a6fc82c72e
## What changed
Load the persisted maxima for `updated_at_ms` and `recency_at_ms` with separate
scalar subqueries during state initialization. This restores each timestamp
counter independently when the maxima belong to different threads.
## Testing
Add a regression test that reopens the state database and verifies both
independent maxima are restored.
GitOrigin-RevId: aeb9cc005d52c4a02dc7a220a817e6d40c0e01d4
## What changed
- Add `codex-history` for model-history and persisted-rollout domain types, including `RolloutItem`, `RolloutLine`, `CompactedItem`, and initial/resumed history state.
- Re-export the persisted types from `codex-rollout` and update consumers to use the new crate boundary instead of `codex-protocol`.
- Preserve existing rollout serialization, including legacy numeric compacted-window IDs.
## Testing
- Add `codex-history` tests for rollout JSON round trips, compacted-history compatibility, persisted history modes, and multi-agent version selection.
GitOrigin-RevId: 944daa9297ddd231d3aebbdcb05fff4adf8b4e1b
## What changed
- Add `codex migrate-rollouts` with dry-run inspection by default, explicit `--apply`, thread filtering, optional I/O throttling, progress output, and JSON or verbose reports.
- Add the disabled-by-default `background_paginated_rollout_migration` feature to migrate legacy local sessions at startup before rollout compression begins.
- Persist a migration cursor and skipped-file fingerprints so later startups avoid full rescans while retrying changed files and recovering pending migrations.
- Coordinate migration with live writers and emit metrics for manual and startup runs.
## Testing
- Cover startup cursor advancement and lookback, pending migration recovery, live-writer coordination, changed empty rollouts, and progress reporting.
GitOrigin-RevId: 276ac506c50ebec5140fd319faca1bb998172061
## What changed
- Add a storage-neutral `QueueStore` interface backed by a dedicated SQLite
database for ordered, thread-scoped user submissions.
- Support enqueueing, paginated listing, editing, deletion, and atomic
reordering, with a limit of 100 pending items per thread.
- Remove queued submissions when their thread is deleted.
## Testing
- Cover concurrent inserts, ordering and pagination, edits, deletion,
cross-thread isolation, queue limits, and thread cleanup.
GitOrigin-RevId: 0a8e95ac71137afc6f3a039d4b5fc8603110c891
## What changed
- Add `threadSection/create`, `threadSection/update`, and `threadSection/delete` app-server methods, with generated protocol schemas and TypeScript bindings.
- Persist custom sections in SQLite with stable UUIDv7 identities, trim and validate display names, and prevent renaming or deleting the built-in pinned section.
- Delete sections transactionally and return their active and archived threads to the unsectioned list.
- Serialize section mutations with section listing so concurrent requests observe ordered updates.
## Testing
- Cover section persistence across restarts, ordered renames, member cleanup on deletion, invalid requests, unsupported stores, and thread-store/state-runtime behavior.
GitOrigin-RevId: dc9a4be283c21dbc93ab1829eafc4825d8df6575
## What changed
- Add `thread/section/move` to atomically move a thread into, within, or out of a section. Threads can be inserted before an existing member or appended, and moves within a section preserve `sectionEnteredAt`.
- Add `section_position` sorting to `thread/list`, with ascending order as its default, and expose `sectionEnteredAt` in thread responses.
- Persist section positions and entry times in SQLite, including migration of existing section members into recency order. Section membership is no longer updated through `thread/metadata/update`.
## Testing
- Cover section moves, reordering, pagination, persistence across restarts and rollout reconciliation, concurrent updates, and rank renumbering.
GitOrigin-RevId: aec6d7ddedca5277029b5caf5c074975397e956c
## Why
Codex and SQLite data can use separate home directories, but state consumers
could reconstruct database paths from the Codex home instead of consistently
using the resolved SQLite configuration.
## What changed
- Pass `SqliteConfig` through the core, rollout, state runtime, and thread store
instead of passing a directory and rebuilding the configuration downstream.
- Use that shared configuration for state, logs, memories, goals, and paginated
thread-history database access, including integrity checks and cleanup.
- Reject state database handles whose SQLite configuration does not match the
requesting store.
## Testing
Add coverage with separate Codex and SQLite homes that verifies startup
backfill, thread listing, and paginated history all use the configured SQLite
directory.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1de1cdd1d6ff1d70bbb6c360c8352e6543fb8ebf
## What changed
- Add `SqliteConfig` to own the resolved SQLite home, runtime database paths,
and shared read/write and read-only pool settings.
- Pass the configuration through state and local thread-store consumers,
replacing standalone path helpers and duplicated connection setup.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7351b08da94b5c8b6c0bbe492f86aeeca0699d3c
## What changed
- Remove the `spawn_agents_on_csv` and `report_agent_job_result` tools and their agent-job runtime and state models.
- Drop the legacy `agent_jobs` and `agent_job_items` tables during state database migration.
- Keep `features.enable_fanout` and `agents.job_max_runtime_seconds` accepted as no-op compatibility settings while omitting them from the generated configuration schema.
## Testing
- Verify upgrades remove both legacy agent-job tables.
- Verify the removed feature and configuration keys still parse without taking effect.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8cc3337da78c67162229f02f40a747f503542646
## Why
`SqliteConfig` stores its home as an `AbsolutePathBuf`, but its test constructor
previously accepted a `PathBuf` and checked the absolute-path invariant at
runtime.
## What changed
- Make `SqliteConfig::new_for_testing` accept an `AbsolutePathBuf` directly,
removing its fallible conversion and `expect`.
- Update SQLite test setup to convert temporary directory paths with
`PathExt::abs` at each call site.
GitOrigin-RevId: 93585b9aea805e2449b3465ac20eeb39417ed555
## What changed
- Add `SqliteConfig` as the shared entry point for read-write and read-only SQLite pools.
- Apply consistent WAL, synchronization, auto-vacuum, busy-timeout, logging, and pool-size settings to writable Codex databases.
- Route state runtime, audit, CLI, and test database connections through the shared configuration.
## Testing
- Run migration tests against temporary on-disk databases opened through `SqliteConfig`, including the concurrent-writer repair case.
GitOrigin-RevId: e3946b98bde04c47574532ac8b1a7bb2b03edd97
## What changed
- Project durable paginated rollout records into rebuildable SQLite tables for turns, items, and projection progress while keeping JSONL as the source of truth.
- Add cursor-based local reads for turn summaries and thread or per-turn items, including archived-thread and history-mode validation.
- Serialize writes, shutdown, and deletion per thread so projection updates cannot race cleanup, and remove projected rows when a thread is deleted.
- Preserve stable item ordering while updating repeated snapshots and expose structured turn error details.
## Testing
- Cover projection, snapshot updates, summary recovery, pagination, failure handling, shutdown flushing, legacy-mode rejection, and deletion races.
GitOrigin-RevId: 34533185ece7f1f5690004c7f12b0f1f34dc2640
## Why
Paginated thread history needs its own SQLite database to avoid adding lock
contention to the main state store.
## What changed
- Add the `thread_history_1.sqlite` path and migration scaffolding.
- Create tables and pagination indexes for projected turns and items, plus a
per-thread projection checkpoint.
- Register the database with runtime diagnostics, Bazel inputs, and database
telemetry.
GitOrigin-RevId: d194310835f1df2a2a29c7827d77ca37eabbd0a3
## Summary
- Revert #28655, restoring the thread `recencyAt` behavior introduced by
#27910.
- Move `threads_recency_at` to migration 0039 so it no longer collides
with `external_agent_config_imports` at version 0038.
- Repair databases that already applied the recency migration as version
38 by moving the matching migration-history row to version 39 before
SQLx validation. The current version-38 migration can then apply
normally.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-state
migrations::tests::repairs_recency_migration_that_was_applied_as_version_38`
- `just test -p codex-state -p codex-rollout -p codex-thread-store -p
codex-app-server-protocol -p codex-tui`: 3,439 passed; six TUI tests
could not open the machine's existing read-only incident database at
`~/.codex/sqlite/state_5.sqlite`.
- `just fix -p codex-state`
- `just fmt`
- Verified that state migration versions are unique.
## Why
Revert #27910 to remove the newly introduced thread `recencyAt`
persistence and API behavior from `main`.
## What changed
This reverts commit `fac3158c2a783095768076489815f361fa9b0db4`,
including the state migration, thread-store propagation, app-server API
surface, generated schemas, and related tests.
## Validation
Not run before opening; relying on CI for the initial fast signal.
## Summary
Add a server-owned `recencyAt` timestamp and `recency_at` thread-list
sort key for product recency ordering while preserving the existing
meaning of `updatedAt` as the latest persisted thread mutation.
This is the server-side alternative to #27697. Rather than narrowing
`updatedAt`, clients can sort the sidebar by `recency_at` and continue
treating `updatedAt` as mutation time.
Paired Codex Apps PR:
[openai/openai#1024599](https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/1024599)
## Contract
- `recencyAt` initializes when a thread is created.
- A turn start advances `recencyAt` monotonically.
- Commentary, agent output, tool results, token/accounting updates, turn
completion, archive, unarchive, resume, and generic metadata writes do
not advance it.
- `updatedAt` retains its existing behavior and continues to advance for
persisted thread mutations.
- Current servers populate `recencyAt`; the response field is optional
in generated TypeScript so clients connected to older servers can fall
back to `updatedAt`.
- Filesystem-only fallback uses existing updated/mtime ordering when
SQLite is unavailable.
## Persistence and compatibility
Migration 0038 adds second- and millisecond-precision recency columns,
backfills them from the existing updated timestamp, creates list
indexes, and includes an insert trigger so older binaries writing to a
migrated database seed recency without causing later mutations to
advance it.
Generic metadata upserts preserve existing recency values. Turn-start
updates use a dedicated monotonic touch, and process-local allocation
keeps millisecond cursor values unique. State DB list, search, read,
filtered-list repair, rollout fallback propagation, and app-server
conversions all carry the new field.
## API
`Thread` responses include:
```ts
recencyAt?: number
```
`thread/list` and `thread/search` accept:
```json
{ "sortKey": "recency_at" }
```
Generated TypeScript and JSON schemas are included.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-state` — 146 passed
- `just test -p codex-rollout` — 69 passed
- `just test -p codex-thread-store` — 81 passed
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol` — 231 passed
- Focused app-server list ordering, response mapping, archive/unarchive,
and resume lifecycle tests passed
- Scoped `just fix` for state, rollout, thread-store,
app-server-protocol, and app-server
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
- Independent correctness, simplicity, elegance, security, and
test-quality reviews; actionable ordering, lifecycle, query-projection,
and timestamp-uniqueness findings were addressed
## Summary
- restore `externalAgentConfig/import/progress` notifications while
keeping `externalAgentConfig/import/completed` as the must-deliver event
- persist completed external-agent config imports in state DB by
`importId`, including concrete success/failure details for config,
AGENTS.md, skills, plugins, MCP servers, subagents, hooks, commands, and
sessions
- add `externalAgentConfig/import/readHistories` so clients can recover
persisted import results after missing the live completion notification
- include `errorType` on import failures in protocol
responses/notifications and persisted DB JSON so future code can
classify failures without another wire/storage shape change
## Validation
- `git diff --check`
- `just test -p codex-state external_agent_config_imports`
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `CODEX_SQLITE_HOME=/private/tmp/codex-app-server-sqlite-read-details
just test -p codex-app-server
external_agent_config_import_sends_completion_notification_for_sync_only_import`
Also ran earlier broader checks before publishing:
- `just test -p codex-state`
-
`CODEX_SQLITE_HOME=/private/tmp/codex-app-server-external-agent-test-sqlite
just test -p codex-app-server external_agent_config`
- `just test -p codex-external-agent-migration`
Further investigation of the sqlite incidents showed that the problems
are due to corruption from the older version of SQLite that we recently
upgraded, and that the data is truly corrupted in the root database --
recovery of all data is not possible. Given that the data is
reconstructable from the rollouts on disk, we should just auto-backup
the database and let codex rebuild the rollout info from the disk
rollouts.
The new behavior is that appserver auto-backs-up and rebuilds (with logs
reflecting that behavior). The CLI now pops a message letting you know
this happened and the paths of the backed-up corrupt db and the new
database. There is also context added so that the desktop app can read
the rebuild info from it and inform the user with it.
## Summary
- avoid acquiring SQLite's writer slot when the singleton backfill row
already exists
- preserve race-safe repair when the row is missing
- add regressions for writer contention and missing-row repair
## Why
State runtime initialization and backfill-state reads previously
executed
`INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING` even in the steady state. SQLite
still
enters the writer path for that statement, so TUI and app-server startup
could
wait behind another writer for up to the configured five-second busy
timeout.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-state` (134 tests passed)
- `just fix -p codex-state`
- `just fmt`
## Why
Dynamic tools are defined at thread start and already stored in rollout
`SessionMeta`, which restores resumed and forked sessions. Persisting
the same tools through SQLite creates a second runtime persistence path
that is unnecessary prework for the explicit namespace refactor.
## What changed
- Restore missing thread-start dynamic tools directly from rollout
history, including when SQLite is enabled.
- Remove SQLite dynamic-tool reads, writes, backfill, and thread
metadata patch plumbing.
- Add SQLite-enabled resume integration coverage that verifies a
rollout-defined dynamic tool is still sent after resume.
## Compatibility
The existing `thread_dynamic_tools` table is intentionally not dropped
even though it's now unused. Older Codex binaries are allowed to open
databases migrated by newer binaries and still reference this table;
dropping it would break that mixed-version path. See
[here](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/state/src/migrations.rs#L10-L11).
## Verification
- `just test -p codex-state -p codex-rollout -p codex-thread-store`
- `just test -p codex-core --test all
resume_restores_dynamic_tools_from_rollout_with_sqlite_enabled`
## Summary
Generated memory rows and their stage-one/stage-two job state currently
live in `state_5.sqlite` alongside thread metadata. That makes memory
cleanup and regeneration share the main state schema even though those
rows are memory-pipeline data and can be rebuilt independently from the
durable thread records.
This PR moves the memory-owned tables into a dedicated
`memories_1.sqlite` runtime database while keeping thread metadata in
`state_5.sqlite`.
## Changes
- Adds a separate memories DB runtime, migrator, path helpers, telemetry
kind, and Bazel compile data for `state/memory_migrations`.
- Introduces `MemoryStore` behind `StateRuntime::memories()` and moves
memory table/job operations onto that store.
- Drops the old memory tables from the state DB and recreates their
schema in `state/memory_migrations/0001_memories.sql`.
- Updates memory startup, citation usage tracking, rollout pollution
handling, `debug clear-memories`, and app-server `memory/reset` to
operate through the memories DB.
- Preserves cross-DB behavior by hydrating thread metadata from the
state DB when selecting visible memory outputs and checking stage-one
staleness.
## Verification
- Added/updated `codex-state` tests for deleted-thread memory visibility
and already-polluted phase-two enqueue behavior.
- Updated `debug clear-memories`, app-server `memory/reset`, and
memories startup tests to seed and assert memory rows through
`memories_1.sqlite`.
## Why
Thread goals are moving toward extension-owned runtime behavior, but
their persisted state was still stored in the shared state database.
This makes the goal store harder to isolate and keeps future storage
splits tied to ad hoc runtime plumbing.
This PR gives goals their own SQLite database while keeping the existing
`StateRuntime` entry point. The goal is to make this the pattern for
adding more dedicated runtime databases later.
This also reduce load on existing DB and reduce contention
## Limitation
Thread preview from goal is not supported anymore. I'm looking into this
[EDIT]: solved
## What changed
- Added a dedicated `goals_1.sqlite` database with its own
`goals_migrations` directory.
- Moved `thread_goals` creation into the goals DB migration set.
- Dropped the old `thread_goals` table from the main state DB with a
normal state migration. There is intentionally no backfill for existing
goal rows.
- Changed `GoalStore` to be backed only by the goals DB pool.
- Removed the old goal-write side effect that filled empty
`threads.preview` values from the goal objective.
- Added shared runtime DB path metadata so startup, telemetry, `codex
doctor`, and repair handling can include future DBs without bespoke path
lists.
- Updated Bazel compile data so the new goals migration directory is
available to `sqlx::migrate!`.
## Verification
- `cargo check --tests -p codex-state -p codex-cli -p codex-core -p
codex-app-server`
- `just fix -p codex-state`
- `just fix -p codex-cli`
- `just fix -p codex-app-server`
## Why
Thread goal persistence is being prepared for a dedicated storage
boundary. Before that split, goal-specific reads, writes, accounting,
and cleanup were exposed directly on `StateRuntime`, so core and
app-server callsites stayed coupled to the full runtime instead of a
goal-specific store.
This PR introduces that boundary without changing the goal wire API or
current persistence behavior. Callers now go through
`StateRuntime::thread_goals()` and the new `GoalStore`, while
`GoalStore` still uses the existing state DB pool underneath.
## What changed
- Added `GoalStore` in `state/src/runtime/goals.rs` and exposed it from
`StateRuntime` via `thread_goals()`.
- Moved thread-goal reads, writes, status updates, pause, delete, and
usage accounting onto `GoalStore`.
- Updated core session goal handling, app-server goal RPCs, resume
snapshots, and goal tests to use the store boundary.
- Kept thread deletion responsible for cascading goal cleanup by
deleting the goal through the store only after a thread row is removed.
## Testing
- Existing goal persistence, resume, and accounting tests were updated
to exercise the new `GoalStore` access path.
## Why
Users and support need a single command that captures the local Codex
runtime, configuration, auth, terminal, network, and state shape without
asking the user to know which diagnostic depth to choose first. `codex
doctor` now runs the useful checks by default and makes the detailed
human output the default because the command is usually run when someone
already needs context.
The command also targets concrete support failure modes we have seen
while iterating on the design:
- update-target mismatches like #21956, where the installed package
manager target can differ from the running executable
- terminal and multiplexer issues that depend on `TERM`, tmux/zellij
state, color handling, and TTY metadata
- provider-specific HTTP/WebSocket connectivity, including ChatGPT
WebSocket handshakes and API-key/provider endpoint reachability
- local state/log SQLite integrity problems and large rollout
directories
- feedback reports that need an attached, redacted diagnostic snapshot
without asking the user to run a second command
## What Changed
- Adds `codex doctor` as a grouped CLI diagnostic report with default
detailed output and `--summary` for the compact view.
- Adds stable report sections for Environment, Configuration, Updates,
Connectivity, and Background Server, plus a top Notes block that
promotes anomalies such as available updates, large rollout directories,
optional MCP issues, and mixed auth signals.
- Adds runtime provenance, install consistency, bundled/system search
readiness, terminal/multiplexer metadata, `config.toml` parse status,
auth mode details, sandbox details, feature flag summaries, update
cache/latest-version state, app-server daemon state, SQLite integrity
checks, rollout statistics, and provider-aware network diagnostics.
- Adds ChatGPT WebSocket diagnostics that report the negotiated HTTP
upgrade as `HTTP 101 Switching Protocols` and include timeout, DNS,
auth, and provider context in detailed output.
- Makes reachability provider-aware: API-key OpenAI setups check the API
endpoint, ChatGPT auth checks the ChatGPT path, and custom/AWS/local
providers check configured HTTP endpoints when available.
- Adds structured, redacted JSON output where `checks` is keyed by check
id and `details` is a key/value object for support tooling.
- Integrates doctor with feedback uploads by attaching a best-effort
`codex-doctor-report.json` report and adding derived Sentry tags for
overall status and failing/warning checks.
- Updates the TUI feedback consent copy so users can see that the doctor
report is included when logs/diagnostics are uploaded.
- Updates the CLI bug issue template to ask reporters for `codex doctor
--json` and render pasted reports as JSON.
## Example Output
The examples below are sanitized from local smoke runs with `--no-color`
so the structure is reviewable in plain text.

## How to Test
1. Run `cargo run --bin codex -- doctor --no-color`.
2. Confirm the detailed report is the default and includes promoted
Notes, grouped sections, terminal details, state DB integrity, rollout
stats, provider reachability, WebSocket diagnostics, and app-server
status.
3. Run `cargo run --bin codex -- doctor --summary --no-color`.
4. Confirm the compact view keeps the same sections and summary counts
but omits detailed key/value rows.
5. Run `cargo run --bin codex -- doctor --json`.
6. Confirm the output is redacted JSON, `checks` is an object keyed by
check id, and each check's `details` is a key/value object.
7. Preview the CLI bug issue template and confirm the `Codex doctor
report` field appears after the terminal field, asks for `codex doctor
--json`, and renders pasted output as JSON.
8. Start a feedback flow that includes logs.
9. Confirm the upload consent copy lists `codex-doctor-report.json`
alongside the log attachments.
Targeted tests:
- `cargo test -p codex-cli doctor`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server
doctor_report_tags_summarize_status_counts`
- `cargo test -p codex-feedback`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui feedback_view`
- `just argument-comment-lint`
- `git diff --check`
## Summary
- add SQLite init, backfill-gate, and fallback telemetry without
introducing a cross-cutting state-db access wrapper
- install one process-scoped telemetry sink after OTEL startup and let
low-level state/rollout paths emit through it directly
- add process-start metrics for the process owners that initialize
SQLite

## Why
We'd like SQLite state to become required and load-bearing. As a first
step, let's remove the mechanism that allows us to blow away the SQLite
DB on a version bump, and instead rely on graceful migrations.
The original motivation
([PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/10623)) behind this mechanism
was to care less about backwards compatibility while SQLite was being
landed, but I'd say it's quite important now to keep the data in it.
## What changed
- Make `STATE_DB_FILENAME` and `LOGS_DB_FILENAME` the full canonical
filenames: `state_5.sqlite` and `logs_2.sqlite`.
- Remove `STATE_DB_VERSION` / `LOGS_DB_VERSION` and the helper that
constructed filenames from versions.
- Stop `StateRuntime::init` from scanning for or deleting older SQLite
DB filenames at startup.
- Delete the tests that encoded legacy state/logs DB deletion behavior.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-state`
Adds the persisted goal foundation for the rest of the stack. This PR is
intentionally limited to feature flag and state-layer behavior;
app-server APIs, model tools, runtime continuation, and TUI UX are
layered in later PRs.
## Why
Goal mode needs durable thread-level state before clients or model tools
can safely build on it. The state layer needs to know whether a goal
exists, what objective it tracks, whether it is active, paused,
budget-limited, or complete, and how much time/token usage has already
been accounted.
## What changed
- Added the `goals` feature flag and generated config schema entry.
- Added the `thread_goals` state table and Rust model for persisted
thread goals.
- Added state runtime APIs for creating, replacing, updating, deleting,
and accounting goal usage.
- Added `goal_id`-based stale update protection so an old goal update
cannot overwrite a replacement.
- Kept this PR scoped to persistence and state runtime behavior, with no
app-server, model-facing, continuation, or TUI behavior yet.
## Verification
- Added state runtime coverage for goal creation, replacement, stale
update protection, status transitions, token-budget behavior, and usage
accounting.
## Why
Device-key providers should only own platform key material. The
account/client binding used to authorize a signing payload is app-server
state, and keeping that state in provider-specific metadata makes the
same check harder to audit and harder to share across platform
implementations.
Persisting the binding in the shared state database gives the device-key
crate a platform-neutral source of truth before it asks a provider to
sign. It also lets app-server move potentially blocking key operations
off the main message processor path, which matters once providers may
wait for OS authentication prompts.
## What changed
- Add a `device_key_bindings` state migration plus `StateRuntime`
helpers keyed by `key_id`.
- Add an async `DeviceKeyBindingStore` abstraction to `codex-device-key`
and use it from `DeviceKeyStore::create` and `DeviceKeyStore::sign`.
- Keep provider calls behind async store methods and run the synchronous
provider work through `spawn_blocking`.
- Wire app-server device-key RPC handling to the SQLite-backed binding
store and spawn response/error delivery tasks for device-key requests.
- Run the turn-start tracing test on the existing larger current-thread
test harness after the larger async surface made the default test stack
too small locally.

- `git diff --check`
To improve performance of UI loads from the app, add two main
improvements:
1. The `thread/list` api now gets a `sortDirection` request field and a
`backwardsCursor` to the response, which lets you paginate forwards and
backwards from a window. This lets you fetch the first few items to
display immediately while you paginate to fill in history, then can
paginate "backwards" on future loads to catch up with any changes since
the last UI load without a full reload of the entire data set.
2. Added a new `thread/turns/list` api which also has sortDirection and
backwardsCursor for the same behavior as `thread/list`, allowing you the
same small-fetch for immediate display followed by background fill-in
and resync catchup.
