Stack 3 of 3. Stacked on #29842.
## What changes
Adds an opt-in `followDirectorySymlinks` setting to `fs/walk`.
When enabled, the walk follows directory symlinks but continues to
ignore symlinked files. Canonical directory identities prevent symlink
cycles, while normal paths keep their existing spelling.
Environment skill discovery enables the setting so symlinked skill
directories continue to work with the new single-RPC scan.
Stack 1 of 3. Follow-ups: #29842 and #29844.
## What changes
Adds a general bounded `fs/walk` operation to the exec server.
The operation returns file and directory entries plus recoverable
per-path errors. It skips symlinks, preserves the existing filesystem
sandbox routing, and enforces depth, directory, entry, and response-size
limits.
This PR only defines and wires the filesystem operation. It does not
change any callers yet.
## Why
Downstream refactors are producing confusing code with this
functionality having a very generic name. Encoding the specific
conversion approach in the method name makes it clearer.
## What
Rename `PathUri::from_path` to `PathUri::from_host_native_path` and
update its Rust call sites.
## Why
`fs/readFile` buffers the entire file in one response, which makes large
remote reads expensive and prevents callers from applying backpressure.
We need an opt-in streaming path with bounded block sizes while
preserving the existing single-call API for small and sandboxed reads.
## What changed
- Add `ExecServerClient::stream`, returning a named `FileReadStream`
that implements `futures::Stream` and yields immutable 1 MiB byte
blocks.
- Add internal `fs/open`, `fs/readBlock`, and `fs/close` RPCs.
`fs/readBlock` accepts an explicit offset and length.
- Keep unsandboxed files open between block reads, cap open handles per
connection, and clean them up on EOF, error, stream drop, explicit
close, or connection shutdown.
- Reject platform-sandboxed streaming opens instead of turning the
one-shot sandbox helper into a persistent server. Existing `fs/readFile`
behavior is unchanged.
## Testing
- `just test -p codex-exec-server`
- Integration coverage for 1 MiB chunking, exact block-boundary EOF,
sandbox rejection, and continued reads from the opened file after path
replacement.
- Handle-manager coverage for non-sequential offsets, variable block
lengths, the 128-handle limit, and capacity release after close.
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.
## Why
Progress towards letting app-server and exec-server run on different
platforms, specifically for sandbox configuration.
## What
- Make the filesystem path containment hierarchy generic, defaulting to
`AbsolutePathBuf` for now.
- Have clients specify `AbsolutePathBuf` or `PathUri` directly where
needed.
- Use `PathUri` throughout exec-server filesystem protocol and trait
boundaries.
- Implement `From` for conversion to path URIs and `TryFrom` for
fallible conversion to absolute paths through the generic type
hierarchy.
## Why
`ExecutorFileSystem::get_metadata` reports file kind and timestamps but
not size. Internal callers that need to enforce a size limit therefore
have to read the complete file first, which is especially wasteful for
remote filesystems.
This adds the missing internal metadata so consumers can reject
oversized files before transferring or buffering them. The field is
named `size`, matching VS Code's `FileStat.size` filesystem convention.
## What changed
- add `size: u64` to internal `FileMetadata`
- populate it from the underlying filesystem metadata
- carry it through sandbox-helper and remote exec-server responses
- cover files, directories, symlink targets, and sandboxed reads across
local and remote filesystem implementations
The new field is intentionally not exposed through the app-server API.
## Testing
- `just test -p codex-exec-server get_metadata`
- `just test -p codex-exec-server
file_system_sandboxed_metadata_and_read_allow_readable_root`
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins`
- `just test -p codex-skills-extension`
## Why
We're moving exec-server to use PathUri for its internal path
representations.
## What
Move `ExecutorFileSystem` APIs to use `PathUri` instead of
`AbsolutePathBuf`. Future changes will convert higher-level parts of
exec-server.
## Why
The exec-server's existing filesystem tests only run on `#[cfg(unix)]`.
We should be running the applicable ones on Windows, and also include
the basic filesystem operations that will be modified by migrating to
`PathUri`.
## What
Split platform-neutral local/remote tests into a shared Unix/Windows
suite while keeping the existing `AbsolutePathBuf` API, and add Windows
junction canonicalization coverage.
