The workspace denies `clippy::expect_used` in production. Although
`clippy.toml` allows `expect` in tests, Bazel Clippy compiles
integration-test helper code in a way that does not receive that
exemption, which encouraged verbose `unwrap_or_else(... panic!(...))`
and equivalent `match`/`let else` forms.
This allows `clippy::expect_used` once at each integration-test crate
root (including aggregated suites and test-support libraries), then
replaces manual panic-based Result and Option unwraps with
`expect`/`expect_err`. Standalone `tests/*.rs` files remain their own
crate roots. Intentional assertion and unexpected-variant panics remain
unchanged, and the production `expect_used = "deny"` lint remains in
place.
The cleanup is mechanical and net-negative in line count.
## Summary
Remove the dead experimental `persistExtendedHistory` app-server flag
and collapse rollout persistence to the single policy app-server already
used.
## What Changed
- Removed `persistExtendedHistory` from v2 thread start/resume/fork
params and deleted its deprecation notice path.
- Removed the persistence-mode enums and plumbing through core, rollout,
and thread-store.
- Made rollout filtering mode-free, keeping the existing limited
persisted-history behavior.
## Test Plan
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `cargo nextest run --no-fail-fast -p codex-app-server-protocol
schema_fixtures`
- `cargo nextest run --no-fail-fast -p codex-app-server
thread_shell_command_history_responses_exclude_persisted_command_executions`
- `cargo nextest run --no-fail-fast -p codex-rollout -p
codex-thread-store`
- final `rg` for removed flag/type names
This PR brought to you via VS Code rather than Codex...
- opened `codex-rs/app-server/tests/common/mcp_process.rs`
- put the cursor on `McpServer`
- hit `F2` and renamed the symbol to `TestAppServer`
- went to the file tree
- hit enter and renamed `mcp_process.rs` to `test_app_server.rs`
- ran **Save All Files** from the Command Palette
- ran `just fmt`
The End
(Admittedly, most of the local variables for `TestAppServer` are still
named `mcp`, though.)
## Summary
Adds an optional `clientId` field to app-server v2 `UserInput` and
carries it through the core `UserInput` model so clients can correlate
echoed user input items without relying on payload equality.
## Details
- Adds `client_id: Option<String>` to core `UserInput` variants.
- Exposes the v2 app-server field as `clientId` on the wire and in
generated TypeScript.
- Preserves the id when converting between app-server v2 and core
protocol types.
- Regenerates app-server schema fixtures.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol`
- `just fix -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `just fix -p codex-protocol`
- `git diff --check`
## Why
The goal of this PR is to align on app-server and `ThreadStore` API
updates for paginating through large threads.
#### app-server
##### `thread/turns/list`
- Updates `thread/turns/list` to support `itemsView?: "notLoaded" |
"summary" | "full" | null`, defaulting to `summary`.
- Implements the current `thread/turns/list` behavior over the existing
persisted rollout-history fallback:
- `notLoaded` returns turn envelopes with empty `items`.
- `summary` returns the first user message and final assistant message
when available.
- `full` preserves the existing full item behavior.
Note that this method still uses the naive approach of loading the
entire rollout file, and returns just the filtered slice of the data.
Real pagination will come later by leveraging SQLite.
##### `thread/turns/items/list`
- Adds the experimental `thread/turns/items/list` protocol, schema,
dispatcher, and processor stub. The app-server currently returns
JSON-RPC `-32601` with `thread/turns/items/list is not supported yet`.
#### ThreadStore
- Adds the experimental `thread/turns/items/list` protocol, schema,
dispatcher, and processor stub. The app-server currently returns
JSON-RPC `-32601` with `thread/turns/items/list is not supported yet`.
- Adds `ThreadStore` contract types and stubbed methods for listing
thread turns and listing items within a turn.
- Adds a typed `StoredTurnStatus` and `StoredTurnError` to avoid baking
app-server API enums or lossy string status values into the store-facing
turn contract.
- Adds a typed `StoredTurnStatus` and `StoredTurnError` to avoid baking
app-server API enums or lossy string status values into the store-facing
turn contract.
This also sketches the storage abstraction we expect to need once turns
are indexed/stored. In particular, `notLoaded` is useful only if
ThreadStore can eventually list turn metadata without loading every
persisted item for each turn.
## Validation
- Added/updated protocol serialization coverage for the new request and
response shapes.
- Added app-server integration coverage for `thread/turns/list` default
summary behavior and all three `itemsView` modes.
- Added app-server integration coverage that `thread/turns/items/list`
returns the expected unsupported JSON-RPC error when experimental APIs
are enabled.
- Added thread-store coverage that the default trait methods return
`ThreadStoreError::Unsupported`.
No developers.openai.com documentation update is needed for this
internal experimental app-server API surface.
## Why
Whenever we return a thread's history (turns and items) over app-server,
always return the limited form as specified by the rollout policy
`EventPersistenceMode::Limited`, even if the thread was previously
started with `EventPersistenceMode::Extended`.
We're finding it is quite unscalable to be returning the extended
history, so let's apply the same filtering logic of the rollout policy
when we load and return the thread's history.
## What Changed
- Reuse the rollout persistence policy when reconstructing app-server
`ThreadItem` history so only `EventPersistenceMode::Limited` rollout
items are replayed into API turns.
- Route `thread/read`, `thread/resume`, `thread/fork`,
`thread/turns/list`, and rollback responses through the same filtered
app-server history projection.
- Keep live active turns intact when composing a response for a
currently running thread.
- Update command execution coverage so persisted extended command events
are excluded from returned history for `thread/read`, `thread/fork`, and
`thread/turns/list`.
## Test Plan
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server limited`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server thread_shell_command`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server thread_read`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server thread_rollback`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server thread_fork`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
To improve performance of UI loads from the app, add two main
improvements:
1. The `thread/list` api now gets a `sortDirection` request field and a
`backwardsCursor` to the response, which lets you paginate forwards and
backwards from a window. This lets you fetch the first few items to
display immediately while you paginate to fill in history, then can
paginate "backwards" on future loads to catch up with any changes since
the last UI load without a full reload of the entire data set.
2. Added a new `thread/turns/list` api which also has sortDirection and
backwardsCursor for the same behavior as `thread/list`, allowing you the
same small-fetch for immediate display followed by background fill-in
and resync catchup.
## Why
Extracted from [#16528](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/16528) so
the Windows Bazel app-server test failures can be reviewed independently
from the rest of that PR.
This PR targets:
-
`suite::v2::thread_shell_command::thread_shell_command_runs_as_standalone_turn_and_persists_history`
-
`suite::v2::thread_start::thread_start_with_elevated_sandbox_trusts_project_and_followup_loads_project_config`
-
`suite::v2::thread_start::thread_start_with_nested_git_cwd_trusts_repo_root`
There were two Windows-specific assumptions baked into those tests and
the underlying trust lookup:
- project trust keys were persisted and looked up using raw path
strings, but Bazel's Windows test environment can surface canonicalized
paths with `\\?\` / UNC prefixes or normalized symlink/junction targets,
so follow-up `thread/start` requests no longer matched the project entry
that had just been written
- `item/commandExecution/outputDelta` assertions compared exact trailing
line endings even though shell output chunk boundaries and CRLF handling
can differ on Windows, and Bazel made that timing-sensitive mismatch
visible
There was also one behavior bug separate from the assertion cleanup:
`thread/start` decided whether to persist trust from the final resolved
sandbox policy, but on Windows an explicit `workspace-write` request may
be downgraded to `read-only`. That incorrectly skipped writing trust
even though the request had asked to elevate the project, so the new
logic also keys off the requested sandbox mode.
## What
- Canonicalize project trust keys when persisting/loading `[projects]`
entries, while still accepting legacy raw keys for existing configs.
- Persist project trust when `thread/start` explicitly requests
`workspace-write` or `danger-full-access`, even if the resolved policy
is later downgraded on Windows.
- Make the Windows app-server tests compare persisted trust paths and
command output deltas in a path/newline-normalized way.
## Verification
- Existing app-server v2 tests cover the three failing Windows Bazel
cases above.
## Why
`thread/shellCommand` executes the raw command string through the
current user shell, which is PowerShell on Windows. The two v2
app-server tests in `app-server/tests/suite/v2/thread_shell_command.rs`
used POSIX `printf`, so Bazel CI on Windows failed with `printf` not
being recognized as a PowerShell command.
For reference, the user-shell task wraps commands with the active shell
before execution:
[`core/src/tasks/user_shell.rs`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/7a3eec6fdb356bd71f80582119eb829179ff0da1/codex-rs/core/src/tasks/user_shell.rs#L120-L126).
## What Changed
Added a test-local helper that builds a shell-appropriate output command
and expected newline sequence from `default_user_shell()`:
- PowerShell: `Write-Output '...'` with `\r\n`
- Cmd: `echo ...` with `\r\n`
- POSIX shells: `printf '%s\n' ...` with `\n`
Both `thread_shell_command_runs_as_standalone_turn_and_persists_history`
and `thread_shell_command_uses_existing_active_turn` now use that
helper.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server thread_shell_command`
## Why
`argument-comment-lint` was green in CI even though the repo still had
many uncommented literal arguments. The main gap was target coverage:
the repo wrapper did not force Cargo to inspect test-only call sites, so
examples like the `latest_session_lookup_params(true, ...)` tests in
`codex-rs/tui_app_server/src/lib.rs` never entered the blocking CI path.
This change cleans up the existing backlog, makes the default repo lint
path cover all Cargo targets, and starts rolling that stricter CI
enforcement out on the platform where it is currently validated.
## What changed
- mechanically fixed existing `argument-comment-lint` violations across
the `codex-rs` workspace, including tests, examples, and benches
- updated `tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh` and
`tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh` so non-`--fix` runs default to
`--all-targets` unless the caller explicitly narrows the target set
- fixed both wrappers so forwarded cargo arguments after `--` are
preserved with a single separator
- documented the new default behavior in
`tools/argument-comment-lint/README.md`
- updated `rust-ci` so the macOS lint lane keeps the plain wrapper
invocation and therefore enforces `--all-targets`, while Linux and
Windows temporarily pass `-- --lib --bins`
That temporary CI split keeps the stricter all-targets check where it is
already cleaned up, while leaving room to finish the remaining Linux-
and Windows-specific target-gated cleanup before enabling
`--all-targets` on those runners. The Linux and Windows failures on the
intermediate revision were caused by the wrapper forwarding bug, not by
additional lint findings in those lanes.
## Validation
- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh`
- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --lib --bins`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --tests`
- `just argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test` in `tools/argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test -p codex-terminal-detection`
## Follow-up
- Clean up remaining Linux-only target-gated callsites, then switch the
Linux lint lane back to the plain wrapper invocation.
- Clean up remaining Windows-only target-gated callsites, then switch
the Windows lint lane back to the plain wrapper invocation.
- Split the feature system into a new `codex-features` crate.
- Cut `codex-core` and workspace consumers over to the new config and
warning APIs.

This PR adds a new `thread/shellCommand` app server API so clients can
implement `!` shell commands. These commands are executed within the
sandbox, and the command text and output are visible to the model.
The internal implementation mirrors the current TUI `!` behavior.
- persist shell command execution as `CommandExecution` thread items,
including source and formatted output metadata
- bridge live and replayed app-server command execution events back into
the existing `tui_app_server` exec rendering path
This PR also wires `tui_app_server` to submit `!` commands through the
new API.
