## Summary
- Add `PluginInstallPolicySource` to the app-server v2 `PluginSummary`
payload.
- Propagate remote `installation_policy_source` through plugin
summaries, details, installed-plugin caching, and app-server responses.
- Preserve the supported source values and map unrecognized backend
values to `null`.
- Return `null` for local plugins and expose the field in generated JSON
and TypeScript schemas.
- Update app-server API documentation and plugin list/read coverage.
## Testing
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol` (251 passed)
- Targeted `codex-app-server` plugin list, installed, and read tests (4
passed)
- Targeted `codex-core-plugins` known and unknown policy source tests (2
passed)
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
# What
- Carry installed remote release versions through remote plugin
summaries as `localVersion`.
- Keep the app-server mapping a pure adapter by populating that value in
the remote catalog layer.
# Why
Remote plugin summaries always returned `localVersion: null` even after
their versioned bundles had been installed locally. Consumers such as
scheduled-task template discovery use `localVersion` to resolve a
plugin's materialized root, so templates from remote curated plugins
were silently skipped.
Adds additive dark-mode plugin logo metadata across manifests, remote
catalogs, and the app-server protocol while keeping uninstalled Git
listings free of synthetic local paths.
Supersedes #28945. This replacement uses an upstream branch so trusted
CI can use the repository-provided remote Bazel configuration.
## Current state
Plugin interfaces expose only the default logo asset. Clients therefore
cannot select a dedicated dark-mode logo even when a plugin provides
one.
## What this PR changes
- Adds nullable `logoDark` and `logoUrlDark` fields to
`PluginInterface`.
- Resolves local `interface.logoDark` assets and maps remote
`logo_url_dark` values.
- Removes path-backed interface assets, including `logoDark`, from
uninstalled Git fallback listings until the plugin has a real local
root.
- Updates the bundled plugin validator and manifest reference.
- Regenerates the app-server JSON schemas and TypeScript types.
Local manifests expose `interface.logoDark` as a package-relative asset
path. Remote catalog responses expose `logo_url_dark`. These values map
into separate app-server fields so clients can preserve local-path and
remote-URL handling.
## Risk
The fields are additive and nullable, so existing clients retain their
current logo behavior. The main risks are an incomplete mapping path or
exposing a synthetic local path for an uninstalled Git plugin.
Local-manifest, remote-catalog, fallback-listing, protocol
serialization, and app-server integration tests cover those paths.
Spiciness: 2/5
## Testing
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `just fmt`
- Regression test first failed with `logo_dark` resolved to
`/assets/logo-dark.png`, then passed after the fallback-listing fix.
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins` (267 tests passed)
- `just test -p codex-app-server 'suite::v2::plugin'` (114 tests passed)
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol -p codex-core-plugins -p
codex-plugin -p codex-skills` (517 tests passed before the follow-up)
- `just test -p codex-tui plugin` (47 tests passed)
- Validated a local plugin manifest containing `interface.logoDark` with
the bundled validator.
## Manual verification
Create a local plugin with both `interface.logo` and
`interface.logoDark`, then call `plugin/list` or `plugin/read`. Confirm
the response contains separate `logo` and `logoDark` paths. For a remote
catalog entry, confirm `logoUrlDark` is populated from `logo_url_dark`.
For an uninstalled Git marketplace entry, confirm path-backed interface
assets remain absent until installation.
Issue: N/A - coordinated maintainer change.
## This PR
Remote plugin analytics cannot rely only on the in-memory
installed-plugin snapshot because that snapshot is refreshed
asynchronously after startup. This PR persists the authoritative backend
identity alongside each cached remote plugin bundle so later consumers
can resolve it without a network request.
### Behavior
- Store Codex-owned remote installation metadata in an atomic
`.codex-remote-plugin-install.json` sidecar under the plugin cache root.
- Use a versioned, snake_case schema:
```json
{
"schema_version": 1,
"remote_plugin_id": "plugins~Plugin_..."
}
```
- Write the metadata during remote bundle installation.
- Backfill it when bundle sync finds an already-current cached bundle.
- Clear it when a generic/local install replaces the cache.
- Let existing uninstall and stale-cache removal delete it with the
plugin cache root.
- Reject unsupported schema versions rather than silently misreading
future formats.
This PR does not change analytics serialization or event behavior.
### Review surface
The implementation is limited to four `codex-core-plugins` files:
- `store.rs`: owns the versioned sidecar read/write/remove lifecycle.
- `remote_bundle.rs`: persists the backend ID after a remote bundle
install.
- `remote/remote_installed_plugin_sync.rs`: backfills metadata for an
already-current cached bundle.
- Tests cover the storage lifecycle and both remote write paths.
## Testing / Validation
### Automated
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins` (268 tests passed)
- `just fix -p codex-core-plugins` passes with one pre-existing
`large_enum_variant` warning in `manifest.rs`.
- Coverage verifies the exact filename and JSON schema, identity
replacement, local reinstall clearing, uninstall cleanup, remote bundle
installation, unsupported schema rejection, and installed-plugin sync
backfill.
### Live manual validation
Validated the production app-server RPC path with an isolated temporary
`CODEX_HOME` and the PR-built Codex binary. The app-server communicated
over stdio and did not bind a port.
Test plugin: `plugins~Plugin_b80dd84519148191a409cde181c9b3d6`
(`build-macos-apps@openai-curated-remote`).
1. Confirmed `plugin/read` initially reported the plugin uninstalled.
2. Installed it through `plugin/install` and confirmed version `0.1.4`
was cached.
3. Verified
`$CODEX_HOME/plugins/cache/openai-curated-remote/build-macos-apps/.codex-remote-plugin-install.json`
was created beside the `0.1.4/` bundle directory with mode `0600` and
the expected contents:
```json
{
"schema_version": 1,
"remote_plugin_id": "plugins~Plugin_b80dd84519148191a409cde181c9b3d6"
}
```
4. Deleted only the sidecar, restarted the app-server, and confirmed
installed-plugin startup sync recreated it with the same contents.
5. Uninstalled through `plugin/uninstall`, confirmed `plugin/read`
returned `installed: false`, and verified the local plugin cache root
was removed.
6. Restored the account's original uninstalled state and removed the
isolated home and copied credentials.

## Summary
- add the `created-by-me-remote` marketplace backed by paginated
`scope=USER` plugin directory and installed-plugin requests
- include USER plugins in installed-plugin caching, bundle sync, and
stale-cache cleanup without client-side discoverability filtering
- expose the marketplace through app-server v2 and regenerate the
protocol schemas
## Testing
- `cargo build -p codex-app-server --bin codex-app-server`
- production-auth `plugin/list` smoke test for `created-by-me-remote`
(returned the expected USER plugin as installed and enabled)
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins` (221 passed)
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol` (231 passed)
- `just test -p codex-app-server suite::v2::plugin_list::` (37 passed)
- `just fix -p codex-core-plugins -p codex-app-server-protocol -p
codex-app-server`
- `just fmt`
## Summary
- cache the global remote plugin catalog when remote plugin listing runs
and warm it during startup
- use the cached remote catalog in plugin install recommendations with
canonical `plugin@openai-curated-remote` ids
- reuse the session `PluginsManager` for plugin recommendations so
remote cache state is visible on the recommend path
- skip core installed-state verification for remote plugin install
suggestions while leaving local plugin and connector verification
unchanged
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
list_tool_suggest_discoverable_plugins_includes_cached_remote_global_plugins`
- `cargo test -p codex-core

Earlier focused checks during the same branch: codex-tools TUI filter
test, request_plugin_install tests, and codex-app-server build.
Move plugin tar.gz packing and unpacking into a shared core-plugins
archive helper so uploaded bundles are decoded through the same tar
handling used for installs. This removes duplicate archive logic,
supports GNU long-name entries on extraction, and keeps size, traversal,
link, and entry-type checks in one place.
- Adds an explicit vertical marketplace kind for plugin/list that
fail-open fetches collection=vertical only when full remote plugins are
disabled.
- Renames the global remote marketplace/cache identity to
openai-curated-remote and materializes remote installs with backend
release versions and app manifests.
## Summary
- add app-server `plugin/installed` for mention-oriented plugin loading
- return installed plugins plus explicitly requested install-suggestion
rows
- keep remote handling on installed-state data instead of the broad
catalog listing path
## Why
The `@` mention surface only needs plugins that are usable now, plus a
small product-approved set of install suggestions. It does not need the
full catalog-shaped `plugin/list` payload that the Plugins page uses.
## Validation
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-core-plugins`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server --test all plugin_installed_`
## Notes
- The package-wide `cargo test -p codex-app-server` run still hits an
existing unrelated stack overflow in
`in_process::tests::in_process_start_clamps_zero_channel_capacity`.
- Companion webview PR: https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/915672
Adds plugin/share/checkout to turn a shared remote plugin into a local
working copy under ~/plugins/<name>.
Registers the copy in the managed personal marketplace and records the
remote-to-local mapping for later share/save flows.
---------
Co-authored-by: Codex <noreply@openai.com>
- Keep shared-with-me as the plugin/list request kind, but return
private plugins under workspace-shared-with-me-private.
- Add workspace-shared-with-me-unlisted for installed workspace plugins
with UNLISTED discoverability,
- Adds localVersion to plugin summaries and remoteVersion to share
context, including generated API schemas.
- Hydrates local and remote plugin versions from manifests and remote
release metadata.
- Adds default-on plugin_sharing gate for shared-with-me listing and
plugin/share/save, with disabled-path errors
and focused coverage.
Makes plugin summaries use config-style plugin@marketplace IDs while
exposing backend remote IDs separately as remotePluginId.
Also fix the consistency issue of REMOTE_SHARED_WITH_ME_MARKETPLACE_NAME
Expose discoverability and full share principals in share context, carry
roles through save/updateTargets, hydrate local shared plugin reads, and
keep share URLs only under plugin.shareContext.
Requires discoverability on plugin/share/updateTargets so the server can
manage workspace link access consistently, including auto-adding the
workspace principal for UNLISTED.
Also rejects LISTED on share creation and blocks client-supplied
workspace principals while preserving response parsing for LISTED.
Adds marketplaceKinds to plugin/list for local, workspace-directory, and
shared-with-me; omitted params keep default local plus gated global
behavior, while explicit kinds are exact.
Exposes shareContext on plugin summaries from local share mappings and
remote workspace/shared responses, including remotePluginId and nullable
creator metadata.
Adds shared-with-me listing through /ps/plugins/workspace/shared,
renames the workspace remote namespace to workspace-directory, and keeps
direct remote read/share/install/update/delete paths gated by plugins
rather than remote_plugin.
Extends `plugin/share/save` to accept optional discoverability and
shareTargets while uploading plugin contents, and adds
`plugin/share/updateTargets` for share-only target updates without
re-uploading.
## Summary
- Add plugin manifest keywords to core plugin marketplace/detail models
- Expose keywords on app-server v2 PluginSummary and generated
schema/types
- Populate keywords in plugin/list and plugin/read responses for local
plugins

When a local plugin is shared, Codex now records the local plugin path
by remote plugin id under CODEX_HOME/.tmp.
plugin/share/list includes the remote share URL and the matching local
plugin path when available, and plugin/share/delete
clears the local mapping after deleting the remote share.
Also add sharedURL to plugin/share/list.
## Summary
Remote plugin-service returns plugin availability separately from a
user's installed/enabled state. This adds `PluginAvailabilityStatus` to
the app-server protocol, propagates remote catalog `status` into
`PluginSummary`, and rejects install attempts for remote plugins marked
`DISABLED_BY_ADMIN` before downloading or caching the bundle.
This is the `openai/codex` half of the change. The companion
`openai/openai` webview PR is
https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/873269.

## Summary
- Download missing remote installed plugin bundles during app-server
startup and plugin/list refresh.
- Upgrade cached remote installed bundles when the backend installed
version changes.
- Remove stale remote installed bundle caches without writing remote
plugin state into config.toml.
## Review note
This is a clean PR branch cut from the current diff on top of latest

1. Adds v2 plugin/share/save, plugin/share/list, and plugin/share/delete
RPCs.
2. Implements save by archiving a local plugin root, enforcing a size
limit, uploading through the workspace upload flow, and supporting
updates via remotePluginId.
3. Lists created workspace plugins
4. Deletes a previously uploaded/shared plugin.
