## What changed
Add `codex.additional_context` to count submitted entries, including unchanged entries, and `codex.additional_context.value_bytes` to measure UTF-8 value sizes before and after the existing truncation limit. Sizes exclude message wrappers and include the truncation marker after truncation.
Tag metrics with context kind, truncation status, and an explicitly supplied name when present; never use opaque source keys as tags. Record metrics through the current turn's telemetry.
## Testing
Add integration coverage for message and tool-output formats, repeated submissions, truncation boundaries, empty and multibyte values, optional name tags, and turn-specific model attribution.
GitOrigin-RevId: 463f257af27be58c372970fac853b85fde495dd5
## Why
Managed command policies need to require a human decision independently of automatic review, hook allowances, and saved approvals.
## What changed
- Support `decision = "prompt-user"` in managed `requirements.toml` prefix rules, requiring a fresh, one-time human decision for matching commands.
- Add experimental `humanCommand` approval requests for clients advertising both `experimentalApi` and `requiredHumanApproval`. Accept only `accept`, `decline`, or `cancel`; reject commands when no capable client is available.
- Restrict responses to capable clients that received the request, and replay pending prompts to compatible clients on reconnect.
- Enable the capability in the TUI and update protocol schemas and client bindings.
## Testing
Add coverage for fresh decisions overriding saved allowances, hook allowances, and automatic review, plus child-thread approval routing and rejection of responses from incompatible or unrelated clients.
GitOrigin-RevId: 0b95ff6aab7f8a04b7298c8a4329d1fddf6a603e
## Why
Resuming or forking a thread loses the session flag indicating that reported token usage already includes retained reasoning. Counting that reasoning again can trigger automatic compaction too early.
## What changed
Persist `last_usage_includes_reasoning` with `TokenUsageInfo` and use it when estimating context usage. Record the flag with completed sampling and compaction usage, and mark local estimates as including reasoning. Older records without the field retain the existing accounting behavior.
## Testing
Add coverage for saved inclusive, exclusive, and legacy token counts. Extend the encrypted-reasoning compaction test to verify the compaction threshold for live, forked, and cold-resumed threads.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9f22262a693111ec0406dce11804eb4844ad8983
## What changed
Add `CodexThread::replace_dynamic_tools` to replace the tool catalog without starting a turn. Updates apply to subsequent model steps and future turns while preserving in-flight calls; an empty list clears the catalog.
Require host opt-in through `allow_persistent_dynamic_tool_updates` for persistent threads. Persist replacements before publishing them, restore the latest catalog on resume, and preserve replacements and explicit clears through compaction. Keep explicit resume overrides separate from the persisted catalog.
## Testing
Add coverage for pending calls during replacement, replacement and clearing across restart, compaction recovery, resume overrides, submission ordering after caller cancellation, host opt-in, and persistence failures.
GitOrigin-RevId: fd2634906895a9b72ae7892ddd9435dced45eccb
## 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.
GitOrigin-RevId: cd5e2f4b3121714acb7f4baf5607f3c27d408cae
## 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.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2caffa6fddd40ddb178733b335f520f317239edd
## Why
An explicit `final_answer` with empty or whitespace-only text could allow queued agent mail to restart the turn instead of leaving it queued for the next turn.
## What changed
Treat explicit `final_answer` messages as terminal regardless of visible text in both completed-item handling and turn-item finalization. Untagged messages still require visible text to defer mailbox delivery; `commentary` and `partial_answer` messages do not defer it.
## Testing
Extend regression coverage for empty and whitespace-only final answers, delivery of queued agent mail on the next turn, and message board notifications arriving before or after an empty final answer.
GitOrigin-RevId: 466f1a9c613e07d67ce45458858ba32d5d23f11d
## Why
Resuming a thread can replace saved model settings with global defaults. A selected service tier can also be lost when the current model does not support it.
## What changed
- Restore saved service tier, reasoning summary, and personality on resume unless the caller explicitly overrides them, respecting thread ownership of settings snapshots.
- Retain the selected service tier for persistence, settings notifications, and resume comparisons while filtering the effective tier against the current model's capabilities.
- Carry the runtime model, service tier, and personality into thread revert reconstruction.
- Persist initial thread settings before user input during MCP startup so an interrupted first turn retains its settings checkpoint.
## Testing
Extend regression coverage for cold resume and explicit overrides, unsupported service tiers, settings preservation during revert, and settings checkpoints before user input when MCP startup is interrupted.
GitOrigin-RevId: e5ec012a5678048c5eedd443e524f38c142bf9fd
## What changed
- Capture history, prompt metadata, routing state, authentication ownership, and context-window identity for background compaction requests.
- Send background requests over HTTP while preserving foreground routing, and retain the latest candidate in session memory.
- Add feature and threshold eligibility checks and deduplicate attempts by history version, model, compaction hash, and authentication ownership.
- Cancel and drain background tasks during session shutdown, preserving completed usage accounting.
The background launch helper is not yet connected to the turn loop.
GitOrigin-RevId: 0e5e6ab7dac4d98a836733668a775ac48b5a59f1
## Why
Inputs arriving during turn finalization could be queued after the final batch had already been drained, or recorded ahead of that batch.
## What changed
Mark active turns as finishing before draining pending input. Reject injection into finishing turns and make late client responses and notifications wait until the final batch is recorded before appending to history. Continue accepting input into turns reserved but not yet started.
## Testing
Extend the task-completion test to block final recording, verify that input admission is closed, and confirm that a late notification is recorded after queued input while preserving the notification truncation budget. Strengthen the retained-tool-output scenario to assert tool output names and ordering.
GitOrigin-RevId: a57e44bd974e60e134183dab989795e2c3538596
## What changed
- Use the standard shell executor and remove the zsh fork escalation runtime, `codex-execve-wrapper`, and `shell-escalation` crate.
- Ignore `shell_zsh_fork` and `unified_exec_zsh_fork`, emit migration notices for legacy configuration, and warn when ignoring managed requirements for these flags.
- Keep the active session's `apply_patch` alias directory readable under restricted filesystem permissions.
## Testing
Add coverage for legacy configuration startup and shell execution, migration notice rendering, active alias directory selection, and nested `apply_patch` execution while other files in `CODEX_HOME` remain unreadable.
GitOrigin-RevId: 43af461fea32b4980550ee7237effd2bc0646ed8
## Why
Prediction forks need to preserve the parent's effective context and request settings to maximize prompt-cache reuse.
## What changed
- Add `experimentalPredictionMode` to `thread/fork` for ephemeral forks of loaded, persisted parents. Reject configuration overrides, `path`, `lastTurnId`, and `beforeTurnId` in this mode.
- Inherit the parent's effective configuration, tools, environments, collaboration settings, disabled plugins, and persisted history.
- Enable `features.reasoning_effort_override` on the fork while preserving the parent's request-effort baseline, including when overrides were disabled on the parent.
- Report the fork's effective model, service tier, and reasoning effort in the response.
## Testing
Add coverage for matching parent and fork requests and prompt-cache keys across legacy and paginated history, invalid fork parameters, and reasoning-effort inheritance. Add a context snapshot for identical parent and fork continuations.
GitOrigin-RevId: 46b41f2ac331562b441dadff1a0a9f926c94880d
## Why
Capability discovery needs the roots captured with each environment snapshot. Threads sharing an executor can select different roots, and changing environment order must preserve executor skill aliases.
## What changed
- Attach the receiving thread's capability roots when constructing `TurnEnvironmentSelection` at startup and settings updates, including roots loaded from saved history.
- Resolve capability roots from environment snapshots while preserving their original order. Retain startup roots so deselecting and reselecting an environment restores its capabilities.
- Match inherited configuration by environment and workspace so differences in capability root metadata do not interrupt configuration propagation.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for root ordering across environment states and configuration changes, independent root selections on a shared executor, reselection with startup or saved roots, active turn updates, and pending configuration failures reaching child and grandchild threads.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4f2e4bb414d27195a6752406117a6050718a1198
## Why
Recovering an interrupted turn replaced its original trigger with `retry` and restored only its root lineage from model context. Turns suspended before that context was written could lose their attribution entirely.
## What changed
- Persist regular-turn attribution in `TurnStartedEvent` and compaction resume metadata, including the trigger, parent and root turn IDs, and initiating agent path.
- Restore matching attribution during recovery, keep unknown triggers absent, and retain the model-context root fallback for older records.
- Reconstruct attribution from surviving turns across rollback and late completion or abort events, and clear inherited attribution when spawning a forked agent.
## Testing
Add coverage for repeated cold recovery, suspension before context persistence, legacy rollouts, fresh attribution on subsequent turns, compaction checkpoints, rollback, and late terminal events.
GitOrigin-RevId: 85b5763e8fbd48a1ea2c07cfda8196e63c2cd33a
## Why
Background code-mode cells can continue running after a new turn starts. Looking up grants and strict review requirements through the active turn can make those cells lose their approved access or use another turn's permissions.
## What changed
- Keep turn-scoped grants and strict review state in `TurnContext`, retained by captured steps and background cells.
- Record permission responses against the requesting turn, including requests made after a later turn starts.
- Share live session-scoped grants across turns while keeping turn-scoped grants isolated.
- Use the originating turn's permissions and review requirements for tool execution, patches, MCP calls, file uploads, and terminal input.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for background cells retaining grants across turn changes, turn versus session scope, permission requests after the next turn starts, and strict review enabled while `write_stdin` is queued.
GitOrigin-RevId: 641502fbfd43553c2c42424d4aaa53ae8020c850
## Why
Guardian needs the assistant's delivered question to interpret a user's reply. Messages sent through nested Code Mode tools must remain available as review context, and approvals based on earlier context must become stale when a new delivery is confirmed. Assistant messages do not themselves grant authorization.
## What changed
- Capture successful hosted User Messaging sends after input rewriting and before result callbacks or post-tool hooks.
- Retain bounded delivery text in acceptance order, persist it through cancellation and shutdown, and preserve it across compaction and resume with an older-client-compatible rollout encoding.
- Track assistant review context separately from user authorization, invalidating pending and cached approvals for both local and worker reviews when that context changes.
- Associate retained deliveries with the correct instruction or communication boundary during rollback.
## Testing
Add coverage for nested messaging review context, fast replies and communication ordering, shutdown persistence, stale local and worker approvals, rollout compatibility, and rollback retention.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1bc1ec9e8947560b99f4b39a42ddb9f2099f519b
## Why
A previously used WebSocket can close while a thread is idle. Hosts need a way to prepare the connection before the next turn without repeating warmup on a healthy connection.
## What changed
- Expose `CodexThread::prewarm()` using the existing startup warmup and next-turn handoff.
- Reuse healthy connections and pending warmups, retry failed warmups, and repair closed connections. Treat a finished WebSocket reader task as a closed connection.
- Skip scheduling during an active turn or shutdown, and stop warmup admission before shutdown takes the pending task.
- Expose `active_turn_environment_selections()` so hosts can inspect the environments captured by the active turn, including those still starting or failed, when authorizing steering.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for repeated idle prewarm calls, healthy connection reuse with preserved response continuation, reconnection with `generate: false`, and warmup rejection after shutdown. Update delayed MCP discovery coverage to verify prewarm repairs an eagerly closed socket and the first turn reuses it.
GitOrigin-RevId: aa164b91a399de2375eda3bf28397725439fce93
## What changed
Remove the session-level capture mode and make thread-owned retained context the default throughout history management. Simplify input ordering, compaction identity preservation, fork handling, and approval freshness checks by removing legacy capture branches.
Keep checkpoint compatibility review separate: unknown or incompatible checkpoints can still use legacy review while retaining user evidence. Set the already-removed `guardianv2.thread_context` feature's default to false and remove redundant opt-out test variants.
## Testing
Update checkpoint tests to exercise legacy review through restored checkpoint data. Adapt existing compaction, resume, rollback, and fork tests to use unconditional context capture.
GitOrigin-RevId: ab23a0d7aca71d5a103458cff8b0c68137dd9708
## What changed
- Store `Arc<dyn AgentControl>` in session services and route agent tools, turn admission, usage accounting, completion notifications, and shared settings through the trait.
- Add `AgentControlInit` so delegated and guardian sessions inherit the parent's controller and local runtime.
- Move local registry and context helpers to `LocalAgentRuntime`, keep resume, close, inspection, and status subscriptions on the local controller, and simplify synchronous and infallible trait methods.
GitOrigin-RevId: ad3f213eb483ac524bde56d769f20a78f20989a0
## What changed
Extract `LocalAgentRuntime` from `LocalAgentControl` to hold the shared registry, residency state, execution limiter, rollout budget, service tier, instruction provider, and thread-manager bindings. Keep session identity on the controller handle.
Store the runtime in `SessionServices` and use it to bind controllers for child startup, resume, delegation, and guardian reviews. Route ownership checks and residency handling through the shared runtime, preserving registry identity across handles. Update existing test fixtures to keep the controller and runtime paired.
GitOrigin-RevId: 846094657cbdf736da3149f0a1c96b4e01423dfe
## What changed
Add a public, object-safe `AgentControl` trait and request/response types for coordinating an agent tree independently of where its threads run. Define contracts for lifecycle operations, message delivery, status observation, execution admission, usage accounting, shared configuration, and guardian evidence.
Move shared agent types out of the local controller and export them from `codex-core`. Let `AgentExecutionGuard` own a backend-provided reservation while preserving the local limiter's release-on-drop behavior. Include `root_thread_id` in `GuardianRootSnapshot` to identify the source of authorization evidence.
## Testing
Add tests for reservation release when a guard is dropped or a turn is cancelled, and extend the guardian authorization test to assert the root thread identity. Check trait object safety at compile time.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9385c9fbfd189f08429539fd89061ef8c9efe0d9
## Why
Daemon recovery reloads threads but leaves interrupted work unfinished. Resume eligible work automatically from the saved conversation, even without a connected client.
## What changed
- Attempt one new continuation turn immediately after restoration, including in Plan mode. Mark the old turn interrupted and supply recovery context without creating a user message or granting new authorization.
- Require an idle thread, matching permissions, and the same single local environment configured by the thread. Skip completed, aborted, or superseded work and snapshots without environment identity.
- Add `continue_turn_if_idle` with an atomic previous-turn check so newer tasks or standalone settings changes invalidate pending continuation.
- Preserve the output schema, service tier, and root turn ID, and emit a “Resuming interrupted work” warning when continuation starts.
## Testing
Add daemon restart coverage for continuation without a client, Plan mode, permission and environment mismatches, and legacy snapshots. Add core coverage for preserved continuation metadata, absence of user-message events, rejection of superseded continuations, and exclusion of remote execution from recovery snapshots.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2b290b75d9399fc58258bcda2e85c74e9b5b3b09
## Why
A checkpoint produced by a previous model may be incompatible with the selected Guardian reviewer. Legacy review must retain user restrictions and verified answers across compaction and restart until a compatible checkpoint is available.
## What changed
- Expose retained user evidence independently of whether Guardian reviews the legacy transcript or parent context.
- Resolve the selected reviewer's compaction compatibility hash during resume and remote compaction. Preserve the legacy transcript when checkpoint compatibility is unknown or mismatched.
- Activate parent-context review immediately after compatible compaction and invalidate pending reviews bound to the previous evidence policy. Ordinary compaction preserves pending reviews.
- Keep strict compatibility checks for previously migrated checkpoints whose complete legacy transcript is no longer available.
## Testing
Add coverage for mismatched checkpoint hashes, retained evidence during legacy review, and pending-review cancellation on migration. Add a request-history scenario covering a model switch, incompatible automatic compaction, restart, and compatible manual compaction with preserved user restrictions and verified answers.
GitOrigin-RevId: b52bfd7c21ce7ebed482174c8d7c327e50b1ada8
## What changed
Replace `AttachmentStore::persist` with `upload` and `resolve`. Uploads return inline bytes or a file ID; resolution returns optional file metadata and a download URL only when a minimum URL lifetime is requested. Add image dimensions, digest, size, MIME type, and categorized errors to the API.
Make `InlineAttachmentStore` return the original bytes and report `NotFound` when resolving file IDs. Redact attachment bytes and file URLs in debug output.
Pass the configured image store from the thread manager into sessions and inherit it in delegated sessions. Allow `TestCodexBuilder` to accept a custom image store.
## Testing
Update unit coverage for preserving PNG and JPEG bytes, redacting bytes and URLs in debug output, and rejecting file resolution in the inline store.
GitOrigin-RevId: f313e0048925998d84394c7e5a278e0d39d86a45
## Why
Guardian reviews must stop when their parent shuts down or their history is reset. Shutdown must also finish reviewer cleanup before closing the parent's persistent history, including when a review is waiting to retry after a rate limit.
## What changed
- Let the Guardian extension own reviewer startup, prewarming, and shutdown through `ThreadManager`, tracking and joining outstanding work during teardown.
- Cancel reviews on history reset or parent shutdown and reject decisions returned after cancellation, including cached extension decisions.
- Keep background prewarm previews from overwriting the active turn's model metadata.
## Testing
Extend regression coverage to verify reviewer cleanup after parent shutdown, prompt shutdown during a 60-second Guardian retry with the network request denied, and preservation of active model review requirements during prewarming.
GitOrigin-RevId: 05efc369b9a1642a10365eac8a09da77f3f6e28c
## What changed
Remove `thread/rollback`, its request and response types, generated bindings, and the core `Op::ThreadRollback` operation. Requests now follow the generic unknown-method rejection path. Document `thread/revert` as the alternative for paginated threads.
Keep historical `ThreadRolledBack` markers and legacy error deserialization so existing rollouts remain compatible with replay and migration.
## Testing
Adapt retained-context and Guardian history tests to append legacy rollback markers and resume threads, preserving coverage of surviving instructions, answers, and review history.
GitOrigin-RevId: b3da1becdf86b1869275aacb0ffc2817cee5af2e
## Why
A code-mode cell can outlive its turn. Nested tool calls dispatched during a later turn need the original step's tools and context, while approval handling must still work across that turn boundary.
## What changed
- Retain each cell's originating `StepContext` for nested tool dispatch and cancel queued calls whose context has been released.
- Keep MCP approval metadata available for the lifetime of the running invocation, keyed by server and call ID.
- Apply Guardian denial accounting and interruption to the active turn, including reviews from an earlier cell.
- Carry `turn_id` in legacy MCP begin/end events so history reconstruction and rollout migration assign late completions to their original turn. Preserve the current-turn fallback for older records without it.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for originating tool selection across turns, callback and metadata cleanup, delayed MCP elicitation review, Guardian interruption of the active turn, and late MCP completion attribution with legacy compatibility.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4533379aae6e4ecb4aabe5a25e4aca5d65385d76
## Why
Turn completion metrics used session-level telemetry, which could label usage with the wrong model after a model switch. A turn can also include compaction and responses from different models, so a single token total cannot attribute usage correctly.
## What changed
- Accumulate token usage by model using each response's resolved step settings, and emit one histogram sample per model and token type per turn.
- Preserve zero-valued samples when no usage is reported, without adding a sample for an unused selected model when only compaction ran.
- Use turn telemetry for tool-call, memory, network-proxy, and running-process metrics.
## Testing
Add regression tests for model switches, step-level model changes, compaction followed by a response or an aborted turn, and turns without responses. Verify repeated requests aggregate into one sample per model and earlier session usage is excluded.
GitOrigin-RevId: 03ab1dcde7da0b16b3a500a9a05e4c86583ee585
## What changed
- Apply `disabled_plugin_ids` to plugin skills, recommendations, hooks, and MCP servers without modifying shared plugin state.
- Activate selection changes when the next task starts, keeping pending settings from changing the active runtime.
- Hide app tools contributed only by disabled plugins from model tool catalogs and search. Preserve connectors shared with enabled plugins and existing direct Apps RPC behavior.
- Include plugin identity in MCP approval keys and use that identity when persisting plugin tool approvals.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for disabling and re-enabling plugin skills and tools, deferred activation of settings, shared connector ownership, selected plugin servers, executor hooks, and plugin-specific approval keys and persistence.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1153ff6aa7ab6953d50e838da05203904ecd2956
## What changed
- Move assessment event construction, metrics, and analytics tracking into `codex-guardian-reviewer` through `ReviewReport`.
- Store denial accounting in thread extension data through `ReviewDenials`, with core retaining turn interruption and lifecycle cleanup.
- Move failed-review record selection and bounded serialization into the extension, with core supplying captured review context.
## Testing
Add coverage that denial accounting clears on turn completion and interruption. Move the oversized-record test into the extension and exercise the new API.
GitOrigin-RevId: 6e5b3d9d4128b356f99b1d0e74a68111e40261ab
## Why
Initial history replay and rollback before the first turn could clear the reasoning-effort baseline established by startup prewarm, preventing the first request from preserving that baseline when the selected effort changes.
## What changed
Preserve the reasoning-effort pin during history reconstruction. Clear it on rollback only after startup prewarm has been consumed. With reasoning-effort overrides enabled, a prewarmed `medium` baseline remains on the request while a subsequent `high` selection is sent as a `configuration_update`.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for prewarm completing before initial replay on resume and fork. Expand WebSocket tests to cover resumed and forked threads with overrides enabled and disabled, plus rollback before the first turn.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2e2d0e8a06b24f01b717458ca0576d63107c7697
## What changed
Introduce `ExecutedToolCalls` to own optional shared recorder state and centralize feature checks, call recording, and accepted result source lookup. Update session, tool runtime, MCP, and Code Mode callers to use this interface.
Move prompt attachment, retry handling, and metadata budgeting into the `request_metadata` module, preserving existing recording and request behavior.
## Testing
Add coverage for all session and turn feature combinations, lazy result source lookup, and unchanged prompts when recording is disabled. Retain the existing metadata budget and cell completeness tests in the new module.
GitOrigin-RevId: bc19f34317232b6599c7ec71c15db4a80123ff6f
## Why
With reasoning effort overrides enabled, compaction used the selected effort even when sampling requests still used an earlier pinned effort. Successful compaction also left that old pin active in the new context window.
## What changed
- Use the pinned request effort for local and remote compaction when it matches the model.
- Resolve fallback models' effort without mutating the live pin, preserving it if compaction fails.
- Reset the pin after successful compaction so the next sampling request establishes the selected effort as its baseline without a redundant `configuration_update`.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for remote compaction success and failure, fallback model effort selection, pin preservation during fallback lookup, and compaction after resuming with overrides disabled.
GitOrigin-RevId: 35e666b0c8026553500715ddbe7bef02cd759f4a
## Why
Reasoning-effort changes should preserve the request baseline while trusted `configuration_update` items carry the selected effort.
## What changed
- Pin request-level reasoning effort for the current model when reasoning-effort overrides are available, including during WebSocket prewarm.
- Re-establish the selected effort after rollback, resume, or a model switch, refreshing the trusted override even when the selection is unchanged.
- Continue using the selected request effort when overrides are unavailable.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for WebSocket prewarm and reconnect, rollback, resume, and model switches. Update transition tests to assert that request-level effort stays pinned while configuration updates change.
GitOrigin-RevId: 89cfee6289543230347b0488d1388190b4da7216
## Why
A standalone root forked from a worker needs its inherited user instructions for Guardian review, including after compaction. Parent input counters belong to a different thread, and omitted parent answers may have restricted an inherited authorization.
## What changed
- Adopt inherited user instructions into thread-owned retained context for standalone roots, recovering surviving checkpoint messages when needed.
- Keep inherited instructions before local evidence without sharing local acceptance counters, and preserve that distinction during reconciliation and rollback.
- Mark parent verified answers as incomplete and treat recovered checkpoint instructions as incomplete excerpts.
## Testing
Add coverage for standalone forks from copied history and truncated checkpoints, retention through compaction and resume, inherited/local ordering collisions, and rollback scope.
GitOrigin-RevId: bf716e224a1d29d6c528ef0dd7cdb118a413a08c
## What changed
Resolve `GuardianContextMode` once at session construction and share it across history retention, replay, evidence capture, compaction, and review consumers.
Extract synchronous reviewer context policy and consolidate Guardian V2 parent checkpoint selection so sampling and fast approval use the same eligibility checks. Preserve legacy checkpoint omission and strict compatibility requirements for thread-owned context.
## Testing
Adapt existing review and history tests to the explicit context mode. Move checkpoint tests alongside the extracted selector, retaining coverage for latest-item identity, unusable checkpoints, and complete-item size limits.
GitOrigin-RevId: c73fb6fea556921acfffe758a5f709d7494019dd
## Why
Queued prompts and `request_user_input` answers can be persisted in a different
order from when the host accepted them. Using persistence order can therefore
reorder retained instructions during replay or apply the wrong rollback
boundary.
## What changed
- Reserve an acceptance sequence for user prompts and elicitation responses
when retained thread context is enabled.
- Persist that sequence with user-message metadata and verified answers, and
use it when ordering, bounding, replaying, and rolling back retained context.
- Keep events without acceptance metadata compatible with legacy recording
order.
## Testing
- Cover delayed queued-input recording, rejected prompts, checkpoint replay,
compaction, rollback migration, and legacy retained-context behavior.
GitOrigin-RevId: 42d24465cc2033bc51c0c2da79d3c0884a8ad98a
## Why
When ordinary included usage is exhausted, eligible users need a way to keep working with the backend-provided Luna Reserve quota and return to their previous model once ordinary usage recovers.
## What changed
- Automatically switch eligible TUI tasks to Luna Reserve after an authoritative account usage read, preserving the prior model and reasoning effort per task.
- Restrict model selection while on Reserve to its supported reasoning levels, keep queued turns on the accepted model, and restore the saved model after a fresh read confirms recovery.
- Surface Reserve usage in the composer and `/status`, and expose `normalModelSlug` in app-server rate-limit snapshots so clients can use the associated model's display metadata without changing the request model.
- Poll account limits more frequently near exhaustion and retain compatibility with app servers that only accept the legacy null request parameters.
## Testing
- Added coverage for Reserve entry, queued-turn handling, task reconstruction, recovery authorization, account changes, model selection, usage rendering, and banner dismissal.
GitOrigin-RevId: 46a435e9531051f8cec3f6a46c4b9f7cfa479747
## Why
`request_permissions` paths and grants need to be evaluated against the selected executor environment, including its path convention, home directory, workspace roots, and temporary directories.
## What changed
- Resolve relative and home-relative permission paths using the executor context, reject mismatched path conventions and lossy paths, and support legacy `read` and `write` path lists.
- Move grant intersection into core so requested and granted permissions use the originating environment's sandbox context. Preserve deny entries conservatively when a special path cannot be resolved.
- Keep the full originating environment with pending permission requests so delayed responses are normalized against the same context.
## Testing
- Cover POSIX, Windows, UNC, relative, and home-relative path resolution and invalid path contexts.
- Verify end-to-end app-server grants are limited to the requested workspace scope and unresolved temporary-directory denies are preserved.
GitOrigin-RevId: 730a2aacd391262e92a6314f3a5b6c262e3dca10
## Why
Shell Snapshot V2 previously captured the login-shell environment lazily when a
command started, adding that work to the command path.
## What changed
- Start one asynchronous snapshot capture after turn hooks accept the turn, so
eligible local `exec_command` calls can reuse it without blocking the model.
- Use the turn's resolved tools, permissions, sandbox, environment, and shell
configuration, and skip prewarming for unsupported or network-managed cases.
- Cancel outstanding prewarming during shutdown. Keep failed speculative
captures retryable by real commands without consuming their retry budget.
## Testing
Added coverage for non-blocking capture and reuse, failure recovery, sandbox and
permission isolation, shutdown cancellation, hook-stopped turns, eligibility
gates, and concurrent capture retries.

## Why
Git root discovery is optional metadata work, but filesystem probes can block. They should not exhaust Tokio's blocking pool, delay runtime shutdown, or prevent later turns from observing repository changes.
## What changed
- Add a shared `GitRootDiscovery` service that coalesces concurrent lookups for the same working directory and limits probes across directories.
- Run probes on detached threads, retain in-flight work across caller cancellation, and discard completed results instead of caching them.
- Use the service for turn and memory metadata enrichment, abort unused turn enrichment when its state is dropped, and limit memory metadata waits to one second.
## Testing
Add coverage for probe sharing, capacity limits, cancellation, fresh discovery, runtime shutdown, memory timeouts, and repositories restored after startup prewarming.

## Why
Resumed threads need to continue per-turn and per-thread token totals without scanning arbitrarily far beyond the latest compaction checkpoint.
## What changed
- Add durable `TokenUsageRecord` rollout items with response, turn, thread, session, and root-turn attribution.
- Restore accumulated usage on resume and snapshot the latest record plus the compaction response ID in compaction checkpoints.
- Preserve root-turn lineage in persisted turn context, while ensuring forked child threads start with their own usage totals.
## Testing
- Cover usage accumulation across multiple responses and resumed turns.
- Cover local and remote compaction checkpoints, invalid remote compaction output, rollout reconstruction, and fork isolation.

## Why
Compaction and host-injected context can rewrite the model-visible conversation
without changing what the user authorized. Treating those updates as authorization
changes prevents Guardian from reusing an otherwise valid review.
## What changed
- Track a host-owned user-message revision separately from the conversation history
generation.
- Advance the revision for genuine user messages and history resets, while preserving
it across compaction and internal context injection.
- Use message content-kind metadata to distinguish host context from user input,
conservatively treating unknown or incomplete metadata as user authorization.
## Testing
Added coverage that cached Guardian authorization survives compaction and internal
context, but is invalidated by user input and rollback.

## What changed
- Store the most recently captured execution `StepContext` in the active turn state.
- Keep speculative model-fallback captures from replacing that context, and update it only when the fallback is selected for remote compaction.
- Preserve the retained context when a turn completes or is interrupted.
## Testing
- Add coverage for completed and interrupted turns, successful primary compaction, fallback compaction, and interruption while a fallback is running.

## 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
- Resolve user message admission when Core accepts the input as a new turn or a steer, without waiting for rollout persistence.
- Remove persistence- and hook-specific admission errors and task bookkeeping.
- Delete queued messages after Core accepts them for turn processing, including messages subsequently stopped by a prompt hook.
## Testing
- Update concurrent admission and queue service tests for acceptance-based admission.

## What changed
- Wrap response items with optional harness-owned metadata while keeping the persisted response payload shape backward compatible.
- Store compacted-history metadata in an aligned sidecar and reject malformed sidecars.
- Carry metadata through history normalization, compaction, resume, fork, truncation, migration, and rollout recording without sending it to model providers.
## Testing
- Cover legacy rollout compatibility, metadata serialization and validation, compaction retention, and resume/fork reconstruction.

## What changed
- Import skill metadata and mention helpers directly from `codex-skills`.
- Import host skill loading types directly from `codex-skills-extension`.
- Make the remaining `codex-core` skills module private and remove its skill API re-exports, including the `HostSkillsService` re-export from `codex-core-api`.
GitOrigin-RevId: 26bf8fffd980df9c4d0c308d7e983ceab9a5df82
## What changed
- Add lifecycle-backed gauges for in-flight and queued app requests, pending server requests and mailbox messages, active turns, and live MCP connections.
- Register each gauge on first use and decrement it when the tracked work or resource is dropped.
- Document the new `server/diagnostics` gauge names and account for the diagnostics request itself in the response example and test.
