## Why
Once the repo-local lint exists, `codex-rs` needs to follow the
checked-in convention and CI needs to keep it from drifting. This commit
applies the fallback `/*param*/` style consistently across existing
positional literal call sites without changing those APIs.
The longer-term preference is still to avoid APIs that require comments
by choosing clearer parameter types and call shapes. This PR is
intentionally the mechanical follow-through for the places where the
existing signatures stay in place.
After rebasing onto newer `main`, the rollout also had to cover newly
introduced `tui_app_server` call sites. That made it clear the first cut
of the CI job was too expensive for the common path: it was spending
almost as much time installing `cargo-dylint` and re-testing the lint
crate as a representative test job spends running product tests. The CI
update keeps the full workspace enforcement but trims that extra
overhead from ordinary `codex-rs` PRs.
## What changed
- keep a dedicated `argument_comment_lint` job in `rust-ci`
- mechanically annotate remaining opaque positional literals across
`codex-rs` with exact `/*param*/` comments, including the rebased
`tui_app_server` call sites that now fall under the lint
- keep the checked-in style aligned with the lint policy by using
`/*param*/` and leaving string and char literals uncommented
- cache `cargo-dylint`, `dylint-link`, and the relevant Cargo
registry/git metadata in the lint job
- split changed-path detection so the lint crate's own `cargo test` step
runs only when `tools/argument-comment-lint/*` or `rust-ci.yml` changes
- continue to run the repo wrapper over the `codex-rs` workspace, so
product-code enforcement is unchanged
Most of the code changes in this commit are intentionally mechanical
comment rewrites or insertions driven by the lint itself.
## Verification
- `./tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh --workspace`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui-app-server -p codex-tui`
- parsed `.github/workflows/rust-ci.yml` locally with PyYAML

## Summary
- add `approvals_reviewer = "user" | "guardian_subagent"` as the runtime
control for who reviews approval requests
- route Smart Approvals guardian review through core for command
execution, file changes, managed-network approvals, MCP approvals, and
delegated/subagent approval flows
- expose guardian review in app-server with temporary unstable
`item/autoApprovalReview/{started,completed}` notifications carrying
`targetItemId`, `review`, and `action`
- update the TUI so Smart Approvals can be enabled from `/experimental`,
aligned with the matching `/approvals` mode, and surfaced clearly while
reviews are pending or resolved
## Runtime model
This PR does not introduce a new `approval_policy`.
Instead:
- `approval_policy` still controls when approval is needed
- `approvals_reviewer` controls who reviewable approval requests are
routed to:
- `user`
- `guardian_subagent`
`guardian_subagent` is a carefully prompted reviewer subagent that
gathers relevant context and applies a risk-based decision framework
before approving or denying the request.
The `smart_approvals` feature flag is a rollout/UI gate. Core runtime
behavior keys off `approvals_reviewer`.
When Smart Approvals is enabled from the TUI, it also switches the
current `/approvals` settings to the matching Smart Approvals mode so
users immediately see guardian review in the active thread:
- `approval_policy = on-request`
- `approvals_reviewer = guardian_subagent`
- `sandbox_mode = workspace-write`
Users can still change `/approvals` afterward.
Config-load behavior stays intentionally narrow:
- plain `smart_approvals = true` in `config.toml` remains just the
rollout/UI gate and does not auto-set `approvals_reviewer`
- the deprecated `guardian_approval = true` alias migration does
backfill `approvals_reviewer = "guardian_subagent"` in the same scope
when that reviewer is not already configured there, so old configs
preserve their original guardian-enabled behavior
ARC remains a separate safety check. For MCP tool approvals, ARC
escalations now flow into the configured reviewer instead of always
bypassing guardian and forcing manual review.
## Config stability
The runtime reviewer override is stable, but the config-backed
app-server protocol shape is still settling.
- `thread/start`, `thread/resume`, and `turn/start` keep stable
`approvalsReviewer` overrides
- the config-backed `approvals_reviewer` exposure returned via
`config/read` (including profile-level config) is now marked
`[UNSTABLE]` / experimental in the app-server protocol until we are more
confident in that config surface
## App-server surface
This PR intentionally keeps the guardian app-server shape narrow and
temporary.
It adds generic unstable lifecycle notifications:
- `item/autoApprovalReview/started`
- `item/autoApprovalReview/completed`
with payloads of the form:
- `{ threadId, turnId, targetItemId, review, action? }`
`review` is currently:
- `{ status, riskScore?, riskLevel?, rationale? }`
- where `status` is one of `inProgress`, `approved`, `denied`, or
`aborted`
`action` carries the guardian action summary payload from core when
available. This lets clients render temporary standalone pending-review
UI, including parallel reviews, even when the underlying tool item has
not been emitted yet.
These notifications are explicitly documented as `[UNSTABLE]` and
expected to change soon.
This PR does **not** persist guardian review state onto `thread/read`
tool items. The intended follow-up is to attach guardian review state to
the reviewed tool item lifecycle instead, which would improve
consistency with manual approvals and allow thread history / reconnect
flows to replay guardian review state directly.
## TUI behavior
- `/experimental` exposes the rollout gate as `Smart Approvals`
- enabling it in the TUI enables the feature and switches the current
session to the matching Smart Approvals `/approvals` mode
- disabling it in the TUI clears the persisted `approvals_reviewer`
override when appropriate and returns the session to default manual
review when the effective reviewer changes
- `/approvals` still exposes the reviewer choice directly
- the TUI renders:
- pending guardian review state in the live status footer, including
parallel review aggregation
- resolved approval/denial state in history
## Scope notes
This PR includes the supporting core/runtime work needed to make Smart
Approvals usable end-to-end:
- shell / unified-exec / apply_patch / managed-network / MCP guardian
review
- delegated/subagent approval routing into guardian review
- guardian review risk metadata and action summaries for app-server/TUI
- config/profile/TUI handling for `smart_approvals`, `guardian_approval`
alias migration, and `approvals_reviewer`
- a small internal cleanup of delegated approval forwarding to dedupe
fallback paths and simplify guardian-vs-parent approval waiting (no
intended behavior change)
Out of scope for this PR:
- redesigning the existing manual approval protocol shapes
- persisting guardian review state onto app-server `ThreadItem`s
- delegated MCP elicitation auto-review (the current delegated MCP
guardian shim only covers the legacy `RequestUserInput` path)

## Why
PR #13783 moved the `codex.rs` unit tests into `codex_tests.rs`. This
applies the same extraction pattern across the rest of `codex-rs/core`
so the production modules stay focused on runtime code instead of large
inline test blocks.
Keeping the tests in sibling files also makes follow-up edits easier to
review because product changes no longer have to share a file with
hundreds or thousands of lines of test scaffolding.
## What changed
- replaced each inline `mod tests { ... }` in `codex-rs/core/src/**`
with a path-based module declaration
- moved each extracted unit test module into a sibling `*_tests.rs`
file, using `mod_tests.rs` for `mod.rs` modules
- preserved the existing `cfg(...)` guards and module-local structure so
the refactor remains structural rather than behavioral
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib` (`1653 passed; 0 failed; 5 ignored`)
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `cargo fmt --check`
- `cargo shear`
## Why
to support a new bring your own search tool in Responses
API(https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/tools-tool-search#client-executed-tool-search)
we migrating our bm25 search tool to use official way to execute search
on client and communicate additional tools to the model.
## What
- replace the legacy `search_tool_bm25` flow with client-executed
`tool_search`
- add protocol, SSE, history, and normalization support for
`tool_search_call` and `tool_search_output`
- return namespaced Codex Apps search results and wire namespaced
follow-up tool calls back into MCP dispatch
(Experimental)
This PR adds a first MVP for hooks, with SessionStart and Stop
The core design is:
- hooks live in a dedicated engine under codex-rs/hooks
- each hook type has its own event-specific file
- hook execution is synchronous and blocks normal turn progression while
running
- matching hooks run in parallel, then their results are aggregated into
a normalized HookRunSummary
On the AppServer side, hooks are exposed as operational metadata rather
than transcript-native items:
- new live notifications: hook/started, hook/completed
- persisted/replayed hook results live on Turn.hookRuns
- we intentionally did not add hook-specific ThreadItem variants
Hooks messages are not persisted, they remain ephemeral. The context
changes they add are (they get appended to the user's prompt)
Adds a built-in `request_permissions` tool and wires it through the
Codex core, protocol, and app-server layers so a running turn can ask
the client for additional permissions instead of relying on a static
session policy.
The new flow emits a `RequestPermissions` event from core, tracks the
pending request by call ID, forwards it through app-server v2 as an
`item/permissions/requestApproval` request, and resumes the tool call
once the client returns an approved subset of the requested permission
profile.
## Summary
This is a purely mechanical refactor of `OtelManager` ->
`SessionTelemetry` to better convey what the struct is doing. No
behavior change.
## Why
`OtelManager` ended up sounding much broader than what this type
actually does. It doesn't manage OTEL globally; it's the session-scoped
telemetry surface for emitting log/trace events and recording metrics
with consistent session metadata (`app_version`, `model`, `slug`,
`originator`, etc.).
`SessionTelemetry` is a more accurate name, and updating the call sites
makes that boundary a lot easier to follow.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-otel`
- `cargo test -p codex-core`
This branch:
* Avoid flushing DB when not necessary
* Filter events for which we perfom an `upsert` into the DB
* Add a dedicated update function of the `thread:updated_at` that is
lighter
This should significantly reduce the DB lock contention. If it is not
sufficient, we can de-sync the flush of the DB for `updated_at`
This PR adds a durable trace linkage for each turn by storing the active
trace ID on the rollout TurnContext record stored in session rollout
files.
Before this change, we propagated trace context at runtime but didn’t
persist a stable per-turn trace key in rollout history. That made
after-the-fact debugging harder (for example, mapping a historical turn
to the corresponding trace in datadog). This sets us up for much easier
debugging in the future.
### What changed
- Added an optional `trace_id` to TurnContextItem (rollout schema).
- Added a small OTEL helper to read the current span trace ID.
- Captured `trace_id` when creating `TurnContext` and included it in
`to_turn_context_item()`.
- Updated tests and fixtures that construct TurnContextItem so
older/no-trace cases still work.
### Why this approach
TurnContext is already the canonical durable per-turn metadata in
rollout. This keeps ownership clean: trace linkage lives with other
persisted turn metadata.
## Why
Enterprises can already constrain approvals, sandboxing, and web search
through `requirements.toml` and MDM, but feature flags were still only
configurable as managed defaults. That meant an enterprise could suggest
feature values, but it could not actually pin them.
This change closes that gap and makes enterprise feature requirements
behave like the other constrained settings. The effective feature set
now stays consistent with enterprise requirements during config load,
when config writes are validated, and when runtime code mutates feature
flags later in the session.
It also tightens the runtime API for managed features. `ManagedFeatures`
now follows the same constraint-oriented shape as `Constrained<T>`
instead of exposing panic-prone mutation helpers, and production code
can no longer construct it through an unconstrained `From<Features>`
path.
The PR also hardens the `compact_resume_fork` integration coverage on
Windows. After the feature-management changes,
`compact_resume_after_second_compaction_preserves_history` was
overflowing the libtest/Tokio thread stacks on Windows, so the test now
uses an explicit larger-stack harness as a pragmatic mitigation. That
may not be the ideal root-cause fix, and it merits a parallel
investigation into whether part of the async future chain should be
boxed to reduce stack pressure instead.
## What Changed
Enterprises can now pin feature values in `requirements.toml` with the
requirements-side `features` table:
```toml
[features]
personality = true
unified_exec = false
```
Only canonical feature keys are allowed in the requirements `features`
table; omitted keys remain unconstrained.
- Added a requirements-side pinned feature map to
`ConfigRequirementsToml`, threaded it through source-preserving
requirements merge and normalization in `codex-config`, and made the
TOML surface use `[features]` (while still accepting legacy
`[feature_requirements]` for compatibility).
- Exposed `featureRequirements` from `configRequirements/read`,
regenerated the JSON/TypeScript schema artifacts, and updated the
app-server README.
- Wrapped the effective feature set in `ManagedFeatures`, backed by
`ConstrainedWithSource<Features>`, and changed its API to mirror
`Constrained<T>`: `can_set(...)`, `set(...) -> ConstraintResult<()>`,
and result-returning `enable` / `disable` / `set_enabled` helpers.
- Removed the legacy-usage and bulk-map passthroughs from
`ManagedFeatures`; callers that need those behaviors now mutate a plain
`Features` value and reapply it through `set(...)`, so the constrained
wrapper remains the enforcement boundary.
- Removed the production loophole for constructing unconstrained
`ManagedFeatures`. Non-test code now creates it through the configured
feature-loading path, and `impl From<Features> for ManagedFeatures` is
restricted to `#[cfg(test)]`.
- Rejected legacy feature aliases in enterprise feature requirements,
and return a load error when a pinned combination cannot survive
dependency normalization.
- Validated config writes against enterprise feature requirements before
persisting changes, including explicit conflicting writes and
profile-specific feature states that normalize into invalid
combinations.
- Updated runtime and TUI feature-toggle paths to use the constrained
setter API and to persist or apply the effective post-constraint value
rather than the requested value.
- Updated the `core_test_support` Bazel target to include the bundled
core model-catalog fixtures in its runtime data, so helper code that
resolves `core/models.json` through runfiles works in remote Bazel test
environments.
- Renamed the core config test coverage to emphasize that effective
feature values are normalized at runtime, while conflicting persisted
config writes are rejected.
- Ran `compact_resume_after_second_compaction_preserves_history` inside
an explicit 8 MiB test thread and Tokio runtime worker stack, following
the existing larger-stack integration-test pattern, to keep the Windows
`compact_resume_fork` test slice from aborting while a parallel
investigation continues into whether some of the underlying async
futures should be boxed.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-config`
- `cargo test -p codex-core feature_requirements_ -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core

- `cargo test -p codex-core

- Re-ran the built `codex-core` `tests/all` binary with
`RUST_MIN_STACK=262144` for
`compact_resume_after_second_compaction_preserves_history` to confirm
the explicit-stack harness fixes the deterministic low-stack repro.
- `cargo test -p codex-core`
- This still fails locally in unrelated integration areas that expect
the `codex` / `test_stdio_server` binaries or hit existing `search_tool`
wiremock mismatches.
## Docs
`developers.openai.com/codex` should document the requirements-side
`[features]` table for enterprise and MDM-managed configuration,
including that it only accepts canonical feature keys and that
conflicting config writes are rejected.
## Summary
- add the v2 `thread/metadata/update` API, including
protocol/schema/TypeScript exports and app-server docs
- patch stored thread `gitInfo` in sqlite without resuming the thread,
with validation plus support for explicit `null` clears
- repair missing sqlite thread rows from rollout data before patching,
and make those repairs safe by inserting only when absent and updating
only git columns so newer metadata is not clobbered
- keep sqlite authoritative for mutable thread git metadata by
preserving existing sqlite git fields during reconcile/backfill and only
using rollout `SessionMeta` git fields to fill gaps
- add regression coverage for the endpoint, repair paths, concurrent
sqlite writes, clearing git fields, and rollout/backfill reconciliation
- fix the login server shutdown race so cancelling before the waiter
starts still terminates `block_until_done()` correctly

Currently `thread/name/set` does only work for loaded threads.
Expand the scope to also support persisted but not-yet-loaded ones for a
more predictable API surface.
This will make it possible to rename threads discovered via
`thread/list` and similar operations.

## Summary
This PR includes the session's local date and timezone in the
model-visible environment context and persists that data in
`TurnContextItem`.
## What changed
- captures the current local date and IANA timezone when building a turn
context, with a UTC fallback if the timezone lookup fails
- includes current_date and timezone in the serialized
<environment_context> payload
- stores those fields on TurnContextItem so they survive rollout/history
handling, subagent review threads, and resume flows
- treats date/timezone changes as environment updates, so prompt caching
and context refresh logic do not silently reuse stale time context
- updates tests to validate the new environment fields without depending
on a single hardcoded environment-context string
## test
built a local build and saw it in the rollout file:
```
{"timestamp":"2026-02-26T21:39:50.737Z","type":"response_item","payload":{"type":"message","role":"user","content":[{"type":"input_text","text":"<environment_context>\n <shell>zsh</shell>\n <current_date>2026-02-26</current_date>\n <timezone>America/Los_Angeles</timezone>\n</environment_context>"}]}}
```
## Summary
- bundle contextual prompt injection into at most one developer message
plus one contextual user message in both:
- per-turn settings updates
- initial context insertion
- preserve `<model_switch>` across compaction by rebuilding it through
canonical initial-context injection, instead of relying on
strip/reattach hacks
- centralize contextual user fragment detection in one shared definition
table and reuse it for parsing/compaction logic
- keep `AGENTS.md` in its natural serialized format:
- `# AGENTS.md instructions for {dirname}`
- `<INSTRUCTIONS>...</INSTRUCTIONS>`
- simplify related tests/helpers and accept the expected snapshot/layout
updates from bundled multi-part messages
## Why
The goal is to converge toward a simpler, more intentional prompt shape
where contextual updates are consistently represented as one developer
envelope plus one contextual user envelope, while keeping parsing and
compaction behavior aligned with that representation.
## Notable details
- the temporary `SettingsUpdateEnvelope` wrapper was removed; these
paths now return `Vec<ResponseItem>` directly
- local/remote compaction no longer rely on model-switch strip/restore
helpers
- contextual user detection is now driven by shared fragment definitions
instead of ad hoc matcher assembly
- AGENTS/user instructions are still the same logical context; only the
synthetic `<user_instructions>` wrapper was replaced by the natural
AGENTS text format

## Notes
- I also ran several targeted `compact`, `compact_remote`,
`prompt_caching`, `model_visible_layout`, and `event_mapping` tests
while iterating on prompt-shape changes.
- I have not claimed a clean full-workspace `cargo test` from this
environment because local sandbox/resource conditions have previously
produced unrelated failures in large workspace runs.
This reverts commit https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/12633. We no
longer need this PR, because we favor sending normal exec command
approval server request with `additional_permissions` of skill
permissions instead
Previously, clients would call `thread/start` with dynamic_tools set,
and when a model invokes a dynamic tool, it would just make the
server->client `item/tool/call` request and wait for the client's
response to complete the tool call. This works, but it doesn't have an
`item/started` or `item/completed` event.
Now we are doing this:
- [new] emit `item/started` with `DynamicToolCall` populated with the
call arguments
- send an `item/tool/call` server request
- [new] once the client responds, emit `item/completed` with
`DynamicToolCall` populated with the response.
Also, with `persistExtendedHistory: true`, dynamic tool calls are now
reconstructable in `thread/read` and `thread/resume` as
`ThreadItem::DynamicToolCall`.
- Introduce `RealtimeConversationManager` for realtime API management
- Add `op::conversation` to start conversation, insert audio, insert
text, and close conversation.
- emit conversation lifecycle and realtime events.
- Move shared realtime payload types into codex-protocol and add core
e2e websocket tests for start/replace/transport-close paths.
Things to consider:
- Should we use the same `op::` and `Events` channel to carry audio? I
think we should try this simple approach and later we can create
separate one if the channels got congested.
- Sending text updates to the client: we can start simple and later
restrict that.
- Provider auth isn't wired for now intentionally
This PR adds an experimental `persist_extended_history` bool flag to
app-server thread APIs so rollout logs can retain a richer set of
EventMsgs for non-lossy Thread > Turn > ThreadItems reconstruction (i.e.
on `thread/resume`).
### Motivation
Today, our rollout recorder only persists a small subset (e.g. user
message, reasoning, assistant message) of `EventMsg` types, dropping a
good number (like command exec, file change, etc.) that are important
for reconstructing full item history for `thread/resume`, `thread/read`,
and `thread/fork`.
Some clients want to be able to resume a thread without lossiness. This
lossiness is primarily a UI thing, since what the model sees are
`ResponseItem` and not `EventMsg`.
### Approach
This change introduces an opt-in `persist_full_history` flag to preserve
those events when you start/resume/fork a thread (defaults to `false`).
This is done by adding an `EventPersistenceMode` to the rollout
recorder:
- `Limited` (existing behavior, default)
- `Extended` (new opt-in behavior)
In `Extended` mode, persist additional `EventMsg` variants needed for
non-lossy app-server `ThreadItem` reconstruction. We now store the
following ThreadItems that we didn't before:
- web search
- command execution
- patch/file changes
- MCP tool calls
- image view calls
- collab tool outcomes
- context compaction
- review mode enter/exit
For **command executions** in particular, we truncate the output using
the existing `truncate_text` from core to store an upper bound of 10,000
bytes, which is also the default value for truncating tool outputs shown
to the model. This keeps the size of the rollout file and command
execution items returned over the wire reasonable.
And we also persist `EventMsg::Error` which we can now map back to the
Turn's status and populates the Turn's error metadata.
#### Updates to EventMsgs
To truly make `thread/resume` non-lossy, we also needed to persist the
`status` on `EventMsg::CommandExecutionEndEvent` and
`EventMsg::PatchApplyEndEvent`. Previously it was not obvious whether a
command failed or was declined (similar for apply_patch). These
EventMsgs were never persisted before so I made it a required field.
Summary
- trim `state_db::list_threads_db` results to entries whose rollout
files still exist, logging and recording a discrepancy for dropped rows
- delete stale metadata rows from the SQLite store so future calls don’t
surface invalid paths
- add regression coverage in `recorder.rs` to verify stale DB paths are
dropped when the file is missing
`SandboxPolicy::ReadOnly` previously implied broad read access and could
not express a narrower read surface.
This change introduces an explicit read-access model so we can support
user-configurable read restrictions in follow-up work, while preserving
current behavior today.
It also ensures unsupported backends fail closed for restricted-read
policies instead of silently granting broader access than intended.
## What
- Added `ReadOnlyAccess` in protocol with:
- `Restricted { include_platform_defaults, readable_roots }`
- `FullAccess`
- Updated `SandboxPolicy` to carry read-access configuration:
- `ReadOnly { access: ReadOnlyAccess }`
- `WorkspaceWrite { ..., read_only_access: ReadOnlyAccess }`
- Preserved existing behavior by defaulting current construction paths
to `ReadOnlyAccess::FullAccess`.
- Threaded the new fields through sandbox policy consumers and call
sites across `core`, `tui`, `linux-sandbox`, `windows-sandbox`, and
related tests.
- Updated Seatbelt policy generation to honor restricted read roots by
emitting scoped read rules when full read access is not granted.
- Added fail-closed behavior on Linux and Windows backends when
restricted read access is requested but not yet implemented there
(`UnsupportedOperation`).
- Regenerated app-server protocol schema and TypeScript artifacts,
including `ReadOnlyAccess`.
## Compatibility / rollout
- Runtime behavior remains unchanged by default (`FullAccess`).
- API/schema changes are in place so future config wiring can enable
restricted read access without another policy-shape migration.
Improve listing by doing:
1. List using the rollout file system
2. Upsert the result in the DB (if present)
3. Return the result of a DB listing
4. Fallback on the result of 1
+ some metrics on top of this
Problem:
1. turn id is constructed in-memory;
2. on resuming threads, turn_id might not be unique;
3. client cannot no the boundary of a turn from rollout files easily.
This PR does three things:
1. persist `task_started` and `task_complete` events;
1. persist `turn_id` in rollout turn events;
5. generate turn_id as unique uuids instead of incrementing it in
memory.
This helps us resolve the issue of clients wanting to have unique turn
ids for resuming a thread, and knowing the boundry of each turn in
rollout files.

backward compatibility:
if you try to resume an old session without task_started and
task_complete event populated, the following happens:
- If you resume and do nothing: those reconstructed historical IDs can
differ next time you resume.
- If you resume and send a new turn: the new turn gets a fresh UUID from
live submission flow and is persisted, so that new turn’s ID is stable
on later resumes.
I think this behavior is fine, because we only care about deterministic
turn id once a turn is triggered.
## Summary
Add a DB-backed lease to prevent duplicate `.sqlite` backfill workers
from running concurrently.
### What changed
- Added StateRuntime::try_claim_backfill(lease_seconds) that atomically
claims backfill only when:
- backfill is not complete, and
- no fresh running worker currently owns it.
- Updated backfill_sessions to use the claim API and exit early when
another worker already holds the lease.
- Added runtime tests covering:
- singleton claim behavior,
- stale lease takeover,
- claim blocked after complete.
- Set backfill lease to 900s in production and 1s in tests.
### Why
This avoids duplicate backfill work and reduces backfill status churn
under concurrent startup, while preserving
current best-effort fallback behavior.
During thread/fork, the new rollout includes the fork’s own session_meta
plus copied history that can contain older session_meta entries from the
source thread. thread/list was overwriting metadata on later
session_meta lines, so a fork could be reported with the source thread’s
thread_id. This fix only uses the first session_meta, so the fork keeps
its own ID.
- Defer rollout persistence for fresh threads (`InitialHistory::New`):
keep rollout events in memory and only materialize rollout file + state
DB row on first `EventMsg::UserMessage`.
- Keep precomputed rollout path available before materialization.
- Change `thread/start` to build thread response from live config
snapshot and optional precomputed path.
- Improve pre-materialization behavior in app-server/TUI: clearer
invalid-request errors for file-backed ops and a friendlier `/fork` “not
ready yet” UX.
- Update tests to match deferred semantics across
start/read/archive/unarchive/fork/resume/review flows.
- Improved resilience of user_shell test, which should be unrelated to
this change but must be affected by timing changes
For Reviewers:
* The primary change is in recorder.rs
* Most of the other changes were to fix up broken assumptions in
existing tests
Testing:
* Manually tested CLI
* Exercised app server paths by manually running IDE Extension with
rebuilt CLI binary
* Only user-visible change is that `/fork` in TUI generates visible
error if used prior to first turn
Summary
- add the new resume_agent collab tool path through core, protocol, and
the app server API, including the resume events
- update the schema/TypeScript definitions plus docs so resume_agent
appears in generated artifacts and README
- note that resumed agents rehydrate rollout history without overwriting
their base instructions
Testing
- Not run (not requested)
Summary:
- read conversation summaries and cwd info from the state DB when
possible so we no longer rely on rollout files for metadata and avoid
extra I/O
- persist CLI version in thread metadata, surface it through summary
builders, and add the necessary DB migration hooks
- simplify thread listing by using enriched state DB data directly
rather than reading rollout heads
Testing:
- Not run (not requested)
## Summary
This PR makes SQLite rollout backfill resumable and repeatable instead
of one-shot-on-db-create.
## What changed
- Added a persisted backfill state table:
- state/migrations/0008_backfill_state.sql
- Tracks status (pending|running|complete), last_watermark, and
last_success_at.
- Added backfill state model/types in codex-state:
- BackfillState, BackfillStatus (state/src/model/backfill_state.rs)
- Added runtime APIs to manage backfill lifecycle/progress:
- get_backfill_state
- mark_backfill_running
- checkpoint_backfill
- mark_backfill_complete
- Updated core startup behavior:
- Backfill now runs whenever state is not Complete (not only when DB
file is newly created).
- Reworked backfill execution:
- Collect rollout files, derive deterministic watermark per path, sort,
resume from last_watermark.
- Process in batches (BACKFILL_BATCH_SIZE = 200), checkpoint after each
batch.
- Mark complete with last_success_at at the end.
## Why
Previous behavior could leave users permanently partially backfilled if
the process exited during initial async backfill. This change allows
safe continuation across restarts and avoids restarting from scratch.
