## What changed
When `features.untrusted_as_tool_output` is enabled, emit untrusted additional context as `function_call_output` items in the `agent` namespace before user input. Use the explicit context name when supplied; otherwise derive a bounded name from the source key, falling back to `untrusted_content`.
Deduplicate these outputs by name and truncated value so name changes are emitted while changes confined to truncated content are ignored. Application context remains in developer messages, and disabling the feature preserves the existing message format.
## Testing
Extend core and app-server tests and add request-history snapshots covering both formats, turn start and steering, derived names, truncation, and deduplication.

## What changed
- Add an optional `name` to `AdditionalContextEntry` across the protocol, app-server schemas, and generated clients.
- Accept names matching `[a-z][a-z0-9_]{0,63}` only for `untrusted` context. Reject invalid names and names on `application` context before admitting turn input, returning invalid-request errors from `turn/start` and `turn/steer`.
- Preserve existing model-input rendering and deduplicate context when only its name changes.
## Testing
Add coverage for valid name boundaries, callers that omit `name`, invalid-name rejection without admitting input, and deduplication across name changes.

## What changed
- Use one renderer for captured requests, raw request bodies, and input items. Show only appended items when inputs extend the previous request and settings match; start a new snapshot window otherwise and explain the boundary.
- Add optional request settings and tool inventory deltas. Normalize volatile values with stable labels, preserve multiline content, and fingerprint omitted content so changes remain visible.
- Migrate existing context snapshots and expand compaction snapshots to include request history.
## Testing
Add focused tests for window boundaries, cache key changes, tool deltas, shared item rendering, stable normalization, and fingerprints. Assert that the follow-up request after pre-turn compaction includes the working directory override.

## What changed
- Cover the default, explicitly enabled, and explicitly disabled states of
`tools.update_plan.enabled`.
- Verify prompt tool lists remain consistent across requests, including when
custom base and developer instructions are configured.
- Explicitly enable `update_plan` in existing fixtures that depend on the tool.

## What changed
- Preserve each contextual fragment's `ContentItemKind` when converting it to a response message.
- Classify user text, image, and audio content as `user.text`, `user.image`, and `user.audio` in their original order.
- Give additional context key-specific `additional_content.<key>` kinds and retain annotations on generated messages such as image resize notices and interrupted-turn markers.
## Testing
- Expand request-level coverage to verify content-kind annotations across mixed-modality turns, additional context, reminders, budgets, skills, model switching, subagents, and image resizing.

## What changed
- Add `TurnInputRequest` and typed submission results for atomically starting a turn, steering the active turn, or declining input with a specific reason.
- Expose `start_or_steer_turn`, `start_turn_if_idle`, and `steer_turn` on `CodexThread`, and migrate Core consumers to these APIs.
- Make app-server `turn/start` steer an active regular turn and return that turn's ID. Reject incompatible output schemas and non-steerable turns without applying settings or enqueueing input.
## Testing
- Cover concurrent start-or-steer submissions, accepted and rejected settings updates, output-schema compatibility, idle-start rejection, and app-server steering.

## Why
Thread cwd and environment selections are a single logical setting in
core: updating one without the other can silently desynchronize the
next-turn execution context. This change makes that relationship
explicit in the internal thread settings flow while preserving the
existing app-server public API shape.
## What changed
- Moved the cwd/environment pair through internal
`ThreadSettingsOverrides.environment_settings` instead of a top-level
internal `cwd` field.
- Kept `thread/settings/update` public params unchanged, with app-server
translating top-level `cwd` into the paired internal settings shape.
- Moved `Op::UserInput` environment overrides into thread settings so
user turns and settings updates use the same core path.
- Updated core, app-server, MCP, memories, sample, and test callsites to
construct the paired settings shape.
## Verification
- `git diff --check`
- Local test run starting after PR creation.
## Summary
Adds experimental `additionalContext` support to `turn/start` and
`turn/steer` so clients can provide ephemeral external context, such as
browser or automation state, without turning that plumbing into a
visible user prompt or triggering user-prompt lifecycle behavior.
## API Shape
The parameter shape is:
```ts
additionalContext?: Record<string, {
value: string
kind: "untrusted" | "application"
}> | null
```
Example:
```json
{
"additionalContext": {
"browser_info": {
"value": "Active tab is CI failures.",
"kind": "untrusted"
},
"automation_info": {
"value": "CI rerun is in progress.",
"kind": "application"
}
}
}
```
The keys are opaque and caller-defined.
## Context Injection
When provided, accepted entries are inserted into model context as
hidden contextual message items, not as visible thread user-message
items.
`kind: "untrusted"` entries are inserted with role `user`:
```text
<external_${key}>${value}</external_${key}>
```
`kind: "application"` entries are inserted with role `developer`:
```text
<${key}>${value}</${key}>
```
Values are not escaped. Each value is truncated to 1k approximate tokens
before wrapping.
For `turn/start`, accepted additional context is inserted before normal
user input. For `turn/steer`, additional context is merged only when the
steer includes non-empty user input; context-only steers still reject as
empty input.
## Dedupe Strategy
`AdditionalContextStore` lives on session state and stores the latest
complete additional-context map.
Each `turn/start` or non-empty `turn/steer` treats its
`additionalContext` as the current complete set of values. Entries are
injected only when the key is new or the exact entry for that key
changed, including `value` or `kind`. After merging, the store is
replaced with the provided map, so omitted keys are removed from the
retained set and can be injected again later if reintroduced.
Omitting `additionalContext`, passing `null`, or passing an empty object
resets the store to empty and injects nothing.
## What Changed
- Threads experimental v2 `additionalContext` through app-server into
core turn start and steer handling.
- Adds separate contextual fragment types for untrusted user-role
context and application developer-role context.
- Uses pending response input items so additional context can be
combined with normal user input without treating it as prompt text.
- Adds integration coverage for start/steer flow, role routing,
dedupe/reset behavior, deletion/re-add behavior, hook-blocked input
behavior, empty context-only steer rejection, external-fragment marker
matching, and truncation.
