## What changed
Add `model_messages.tools.incremental_tools` overrides for the update hint, tool and namespace removal headers, and namespace instruction update and clearing messages. Missing, null, or over-512-byte values fall back to bundled wording; empty strings omit static text while retaining runtime names and instructions.
Substitute `{name}` in namespace message templates and append runtime instructions verbatim. Wording changes alone do not trigger tool catalog updates.
## Testing
Extend unit tests and MCP request-history snapshots to cover custom wording, empty notices, tool removal and restoration, and namespace instruction changes and clearing without repeating unchanged tools or notices.

## What changed
- Add the `daybreak` configuration key, defaulting to `false`, with per-invocation overrides such as `-c daybreak=true`.
- Resolve access programs from the model catalog, preferring `daybreak_blue` over `daybreak_red` when enabled and selecting advertised `standard` access when disabled for signed-in ChatGPT accounts. Require the OpenAI provider, a signed-in ChatGPT account, and a compatible model to enable Daybreak.
- Save the choice for new persistent threads and inherit it on resume and fork, including ephemeral forks. Explicit CLI overrides apply only to the current invocation.
## Testing
Add protocol tests for advertised-program selection and exec integration tests for account and provider restrictions, saved choices, ephemeral forks, and invocation-only overrides.

## What changed
- Add `features.guardianv2.async_classifier_mode` with `snapshot` and `conversation` modes. Local configuration overrides model defaults; snapshots remain the fallback.
- Retain completed classifier requests and responses in conversation mode, appending transcript deltas without repeating previously delivered user instructions.
- Rebuild retained history when authorization, classifier instructions, or parent compaction changes, after an incomplete response, or when the next request exceeds the configured token limit. Add `async_classifier_conversation_token_limit`, defaulting to 100,000 tokens, while preserving the model's input limit for fresh requests.
- Serialize conversation requests in observation order, bound outstanding work, and reject stale work after authorization changes or thread shutdown. Record retained and new input token costs.
## Testing
Add tests for configuration precedence, history reuse and resets, ordered admission, queue overflow, and stale or stopped requests. Exercise the approval matrix in both modes, including resume, fork, mandatory review, authorization changes, and stream failure after an early score.

## Why
The Browser connector on `codex_apps` needs the computer-use policies and review handling already applied to `node_repl` and `cua_repl`.
## What changed
- Classify `connector_openai_browser` using registered tool metadata and preserve its computer-use scope through Guardian review.
- Extend confirmation-policy forwarding, review evidence capture, JavaScript execution tracking, and initial-call approval handling to the Browser connector.
- Correlate Browser elicitations with live invocations so nested actions retain their own review identity while assessments are attributed to the originating call. Require verified Browser identity for strict nested review.
- Include the Browser connector in computer-use policy prompts and bundled model messages.
## Testing
Add integration coverage for ordinary and strict Browser nested reviews, including policy injection and action attribution. Verify strict review declines requests with missing or unknown invocation correlation or a non-Browser registration.

## What changed
- Extend `GuardianModelPolicy` with controls for uncategorized tools, unscored actions, the initial computer-use call allowance, and sandboxed command coverage.
- Add `GuardianPolicyLoader` in `codex-config` to translate legacy settings, preserve catalog policy precedence, and enforce reviewer requirements. Apply live model review requirements through `ConfigRequirements::constrain_guardian_policy`.
- Use the shared model policy for Guardian scoring and approval, replacing the extension-local policy wrapper while retaining legacy defaults.
## Testing
Add configuration tests for catalog precedence, legacy scope fallback, required-model constraints, and legacy computer-use opt-in and feature gating. Adapt existing extension tests to consume the shared policy.

## Why
Code Mode wrappers should preserve cached scores for nested actions so adaptive review can reuse them across cells.
## What changed
Remove `code_mode` from `GuardianModelPolicy` and its approval scopes. Skip scoring and cache invalidation for direct Code Mode `exec` wrappers under model policies, leaving nested tools governed by their own categories. Preserve legacy wrapper scoring behavior.
## Testing
Expand app-server coverage for score reuse across cells, synchronous nested reviews, required model policies, and legacy configurations. Retain checks that ordinary tools named `exec` or MCP tools named `wait` invalidate cached scores.

## What changed
Carry optional `available_access_programs` metadata through model information, presets, caches, and the TUI, and expose it as `availableAccessPrograms` in app-server `model/list` responses. Update the generated JSON schemas, TypeScript types, and Python models.
Preserve the distinction between missing metadata and an empty `cyber` list. Ignore unknown cyber program names when reading the catalog so new server programs do not prevent older clients from loading it. Discovery metadata does not grant access; inference still enforces authorization.
## Testing
Add coverage for absent, null, empty, and populated metadata, unknown program names, and app-server serialization. Extend cache tests and verify that online refreshes persist changed access metadata even when the catalog ETag stays unchanged.
GitOrigin-RevId: b3ef5805c1c61b8d64b9b896c9c0a79120143667
## What changed
Add the disabled-by-default `reasoning_effort_override` feature for OpenAI models with `use_responses_lite` enabled. Append a trusted `configuration_update` after accepted input when no effort is established in surviving history or the resolved effort changes. Preserve the existing history prefix and continue sending the request-level reasoning effort.
Share effort normalization through `ModelInfo::resolve_reasoning_effort` so requests and history updates resolve `ultra` consistently and translate `persistent` to `disabled`. Exclude other custom effort values from history updates, and compare only against harness-authored configuration items.
## Testing
Add integration coverage for effort transitions, deduplication, history prefix and cache-key preservation, alias normalization, and feature/provider/model gating. Add unit coverage for model-specific `ultra` resolution, fallbacks, and `persistent` translation.
GitOrigin-RevId: c3fe7050058076454d8ea20054a618bca9d48c7c
## What changed
- Add optional per-model Guardian modes for computer use, shell, code mode,
file changes, MCP, network, and permission requests.
- Apply disabled, synchronous, or adaptive review by action category while
preserving legacy configuration when model policy is absent.
- Bind cached risk scores to the active model policy, thread settings, and
environment selections so outdated scores cannot approve later actions.
- Keep unknown review modes on the synchronous path and ignore unknown policy
fields for forward compatibility.
## Testing
- Cover policy serialization, legacy fallback, scoped tool classification,
disabled categories, and score invalidation after policy changes.
GitOrigin-RevId: f334a5f4fffb198da66cde3a400233e0df650516
## What changed
- Add `max_tool_call_lag`, `reuse_parent_compaction`, and transcript
`include_images` to the Guardian model configuration.
- Inherit these settings from model defaults while preserving explicit local
overrides.
- Enable image capture for Node REPL review evidence when transcript images are
included.
## Testing
- Cover inheritance and local override precedence for the new settings.
- Verify that enabling transcript images initializes review-evidence capture.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7c1965c2ec00a78a0436fa916b630be0004dbb51
## What changed
- Add optional `guardian_v2` model-message defaults for classifier instructions,
review thresholds, reasoning effort, transcript selection and limits, and
action and compaction token limits.
- Apply those defaults when Guardian v2 samples a tool call, while preserving
explicit `[features.guardianv2]` settings over catalog values.
- Preserve the new catalog configuration when applying model overrides.
## Testing
- Cover model-catalog serialization and model override behavior.
- Verify that sampling uses catalog defaults while retaining local overrides.
