## Why
view_image needs to support foreign OS remote executors.
## What
- resolve image paths against the selected environment as `PathUri` and
read them through that environment's filesystem
- keep app-server's public path field wire-compatible as
`LegacyAppPathString`, with purpose-specific UI rendering
- cover relative and absolute target-native paths in the core
integration test and run the full `view_image` suite under wine-exec
without skips
Remote plugin catalogs now span workspace, shared, and local sources, so
their TUI behavior needs focused regression coverage across loading,
navigation, actions, and refreshes.
This PR:
- Covers product labels and rendered loading/error states for Workspace,
Shared with me, Shared with me (link), and Local tabs, including tab
persistence across refresh and detail navigation.
- Covers remote/local deduplication, Installed-tab remote detail
routing, marketplace load-error handling, and disabled install/uninstall
navigation.
- Adds a full detail snapshot for local shared-plugin metadata plus
focused snapshots for marketplace labels and admin-disabled status.
- Verifies shared plugins remain eligible for mentions and successful
uninstalls trigger a catalog refresh.
## Why
The reset flow introduced in #28154 still describes earned reset credits
as "rate-limit resets" and uses generic reset-scope copy. It can also
retain a stale available-credit count after redemption or an account
change, leaving the reset action enabled after the last credit is used.
This follow-up updates terminology only within that reset feature.
Existing rate-limit wording elsewhere in the CLI and TUI is unchanged.
## What changed
- Rename reset-specific `/usage` menu items, startup hints, and reset
dialogs to "usage limit reset."
- Describe monthly resets for Free, Go, and accounts that report a
monthly usage window; otherwise describe the current 5-hour and weekly
limits.
- Recheck a cached zero balance when `/usage` is reopened, and refresh
the balance after redemption so the final reset immediately disables the
action.
- Correlate async refresh results before updating snapshots and clear
account-derived reset state, warnings, prompts, and status surfaces when
the account changes.
## Validation

## Description
This PR cuts Codex over from generic `ResponseItem.metadata` (introduced
here: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/28355) to
`ResponseItem.internal_chat_message_metadata_passthrough`, which is the
blessed path and has strongly-typed keys.
For now we have to drop this MAv2 usage of `metadata`:
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/28561 until we figure out where
that should live.
## Summary
[#26701](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/26701) added remote plugin
identity support, [#26702](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/26702)
added remote-section fetching and state, and
[#28768](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/28768) extracted the
catalog rendering module. This PR builds the product-facing `/plugins`
catalog on that foundation so remote records appear as OpenAI Curated,
Workspace, and Shared with me sections rather than backend marketplace
implementation details.
Plugin details remain read-only for sharing metadata. This PR does not
add share-authoring actions or change the app-server protocol.
## Changes
- Renders OpenAI Curated, Workspace, and Shared with me sections with
loading, empty, and error states.
- Preserves section selection and stable tab ordering as remote sections
transition between fallback and populated states.
- Shows OpenAI Curated loading only when the explicit vertical fallback
request was issued.
- Centralizes remote marketplace identity matching around the existing
marketplace constants.
- Uses product labels for remote marketplaces and identifies the
personal marketplace as Local by its path.
- Shows read-only source, authentication, version, and sharing metadata
in plugin detail views.
- Applies narrow display deduplication for local and remote records
sharing a remote plugin ID:
- installed records take precedence;
- local mapped sources are preferred for details only when their
installed state matches the selected record.
- Returns from detail and confirmation views through the current plugin
cache so newly loaded remote sections are not overwritten by an older
captured response.
- Keeps admin-disabled plugins view-only and labels default-installed
plugins as Available by default.
## Tests
New tests:
- `plugins_popup_admin_disabled_available_plugin_has_view_only_hint`
- `plugins_popup_remote_section_fallback_states_snapshot`
-
`plugins_popup_installed_remote_row_keeps_remote_detail_when_local_share_is_uninstalled`
Updated existing plugin catalog tests and snapshots for product labels,
detail metadata, personal-marketplace labeling, and stable tab ordering.
Verification:
- `cargo clippy -p codex-tui --all-targets -- -D warnings`
## Follow-ups
- Local/remote duplicate normalization should eventually move into
app-server. This PR intentionally keeps the compatibility behavior
narrow and display-only.
- PR5 will sanitize sensitive components before displaying Git source
URLs.
Responses API safety buffering metadata currently stops at the transport
boundary, so app-server clients cannot render the in-progress safety
review state.
This change:
- decodes and deduplicates `safety_buffering` metadata from Responses
API SSE and WebSocket events without suppressing the original response
event
- emits a typed core event containing the requested model plus backend
use cases and reasons
- forwards that event as `turn/safetyBuffering/updated` through
app-server v2 and updates generated protocol schemas
- keeps the side-channel event out of persisted rollouts and turn timing
This supports the Codex Apps buffering UX and depends on the Responses
API backend work in https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/1044569 and
https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/1044571.
Validation:
- focused `codex-core` safety-buffering integration test passes
- `cargo check -p codex-core -p codex-app-server -p
codex-app-server-protocol`
- `just fix -p codex-api -p codex-protocol -p codex-core -p
codex-app-server-protocol -p codex-app-server -p codex-rollout -p
codex-rollout-trace -p codex-otel`
- `just fmt`
- broad package test run: 4,430/4,492 passed; 62 unrelated
local-environment/concurrency failures involved unavailable test
binaries, MCP subprocess setup, and app-server timeouts
## Why
The TUI treats both an active turn and MCP startup as a running task.
That currently blocks `/resume` and several settings commands even
though they do not compete with turn execution, which is especially
frustrating when MCP startup is slow.
Model, permissions, personality, and service-tier selections already
update thread settings independently of the running turn. Other clients
can send those updates mid-turn, while the current turn continues with
its captured settings. Allowing the same updates from local slash
commands makes the TUI consistent with that existing behavior.
## What changed
- Allow `/resume` while a task is running.
- Allow `/model`, `/permissions`, `/personality`, and service-tier
commands such as `/fast` while a task is running.
- Keep the existing behavior where the active turn uses its captured
settings and updates apply to subsequent turns.
- Exercise the commands under the busy state in the existing TUI tests
and retain coverage for commands that should remain blocked.
## Behavior note
Turn settings such as model selection and reasoning effort are captured
when a turn starts. Changing them during an active turn affects the next
turn, not the turn already in progress. The status bar updates
immediately, so it may temporarily display the newly selected setting
before that setting is actually in effect.
## Verification
- Focused `codex-tui` tests for resume dispatch, settings popups,
`/fast`, and disabled-command behavior.
## Related issues
Closes#19015.
Addresses the next-turn-safe model/reasoning switching portion of
#14356; dedicated shortcuts and the proposed depth meter remain out of
scope.
## Why
Once multi-agent mode can be selected per turn, clients also need to
choose the initial selection when creating a thread and observe that
selection through lifecycle and settings APIs.
The selected value is intentionally distinct from the effective
model-visible value: no client selection is represented as `null`, even
though an eligible multi-agent v2 turn derives `explicitRequestOnly` as
its effective default.
## What changed
- Add the optional experimental `thread/start.multiAgentMode` parameter
and pass it through thread creation.
- Preserve an omitted initial value as an unset selection rather than
eagerly storing `explicitRequestOnly`.
- Apply an explicit `thread/start` selection to the first turn through
the session configuration established at thread creation.
- Restore the latest persisted effective mode as the selected baseline
on cold resume when rollout history contains one.
- Inherit the optional selected mode from a loaded parent when creating
related runtime threads.
- Return the current selected `multiAgentMode` from `thread/start`,
`thread/resume`, `thread/fork`, and thread settings, using `null` when
no mode is selected.
- Keep lifecycle reporting independent from model capability and feature
eligibility; core turn construction remains responsible for calculating
and persisting the effective mode.
## Not covered
- Clearing an existing loaded-session selection back to unset through
`turn/start`; omitted or `null` currently retains the session's
selection.
- A TUI control, slash command, or `config.toml` preference.
## Verification
- `CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 just test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 just test -p codex-app-server multi_agent_mode`
The focused app-server coverage verifies explicit `thread/start`
initialization, first-turn prompting, nullable reporting for an omitted
selection, and retention of selections that are not currently
runtime-eligible.
## Stack
Stacked on #28685. This PR contains only the thread initialization and
lifecycle/settings API layer.
## What
Server should request:
```
{
"id": 42,
"method": "currentTime/read",
"params": {
"threadId": "11111111-1111-1111-1111-aaaaafdc2c11"
}
}
```
Client should respond with something like:
```rust
{
"id": 42,
"result": {
"currentTimeAt": 1781717655
}
}
```
## Why
Sessions configured with `clock_source = "external"` need a
thread-specific external time source before inference. The system clock
remains the default production provider.

Stacked on #28824.
## Why
App-server must report command events containing foreign-platform paths
without changing existing client or rollout path-string formats.
## What changed
- retain `PathUri` through exec command begin/end events
- convert cwd values to `LegacyAppPathString` at the app-server
compatibility boundary
- drop command actions with foreign paths and log them
- serialize rollout-trace cwd values using their inferred native path
representation
- restore Wine coverage for retained Windows cwd values and successful
completion
## Summary
- Revert #28655, restoring the thread `recencyAt` behavior introduced by
#27910.
- Move `threads_recency_at` to migration 0039 so it no longer collides
with `external_agent_config_imports` at version 0038.
- Repair databases that already applied the recency migration as version
38 by moving the matching migration-history row to version 39 before
SQLx validation. The current version-38 migration can then apply
normally.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-state
migrations::tests::repairs_recency_migration_that_was_applied_as_version_38`
- `just test -p codex-state -p codex-rollout -p codex-thread-store -p
codex-app-server-protocol -p codex-tui`: 3,439 passed; six TUI tests
could not open the machine's existing read-only incident database at
`~/.codex/sqlite/state_5.sqlite`.
- `just fix -p codex-state`
- `just fmt`
- Verified that state migration versions are unique.
## Why
Command approval cache keys included the command and working directory,
but not the execution environment. An approval for `/workspace` locally
could therefore be reused for the same command and path on an executor.
## What changed
- Include the selected environment ID in shell and unified-exec approval
cache keys.
- Carry that ID through the normal command approval request so clients
can show which environment is being approved.
- Expose the environment through app-server as a required nullable
`environmentId` and show it in the inline TUI approval prompt.
- Keep older recorded approval events compatible when the environment is
absent.
For example, `echo ok` in local `/workspace` and `echo ok` in executor
`/workspace` now produce different approval keys and separate prompts.
## Scope
This PR does not change network approvals, Guardian review actions, MCP
elicitation, full-screen TUI rendering, or environment-ID validation.
Remote `shell_command` execution itself remains in #28722; this PR only
makes its approval key environment-aware.
## Why
Revert #27910 to remove the newly introduced thread `recencyAt`
persistence and API behavior from `main`.
## What changed
This reverts commit `fac3158c2a783095768076489815f361fa9b0db4`,
including the state migration, thread-store propagation, app-server API
surface, generated schemas, and related tests.
## Validation
Not run before opening; relying on CI for the initial fast signal.
## Summary
Add a server-owned `recencyAt` timestamp and `recency_at` thread-list
sort key for product recency ordering while preserving the existing
meaning of `updatedAt` as the latest persisted thread mutation.
This is the server-side alternative to #27697. Rather than narrowing
`updatedAt`, clients can sort the sidebar by `recency_at` and continue
treating `updatedAt` as mutation time.
Paired Codex Apps PR:
[openai/openai#1024599](https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/1024599)
## Contract
- `recencyAt` initializes when a thread is created.
- A turn start advances `recencyAt` monotonically.
- Commentary, agent output, tool results, token/accounting updates, turn
completion, archive, unarchive, resume, and generic metadata writes do
not advance it.
- `updatedAt` retains its existing behavior and continues to advance for
persisted thread mutations.
- Current servers populate `recencyAt`; the response field is optional
in generated TypeScript so clients connected to older servers can fall
back to `updatedAt`.
- Filesystem-only fallback uses existing updated/mtime ordering when
SQLite is unavailable.
## Persistence and compatibility
Migration 0038 adds second- and millisecond-precision recency columns,
backfills them from the existing updated timestamp, creates list
indexes, and includes an insert trigger so older binaries writing to a
migrated database seed recency without causing later mutations to
advance it.
Generic metadata upserts preserve existing recency values. Turn-start
updates use a dedicated monotonic touch, and process-local allocation
keeps millisecond cursor values unique. State DB list, search, read,
filtered-list repair, rollout fallback propagation, and app-server
conversions all carry the new field.
## API
`Thread` responses include:
```ts
recencyAt?: number
```
`thread/list` and `thread/search` accept:
```json
{ "sortKey": "recency_at" }
```
Generated TypeScript and JSON schemas are included.

## Summary
- restore `externalAgentConfig/import/progress` notifications while
keeping `externalAgentConfig/import/completed` as the must-deliver event
- persist completed external-agent config imports in state DB by
`importId`, including concrete success/failure details for config,
AGENTS.md, skills, plugins, MCP servers, subagents, hooks, commands, and
sessions
- add `externalAgentConfig/import/readHistories` so clients can recover
persisted import results after missing the live completion notification
- include `errorType` on import failures in protocol
responses/notifications and persisted DB JSON so future code can
classify failures without another wire/storage shape change

- `just test -p codex-external-agent-migration`
## Why
Models sometimes need to pause briefly while waiting for external work,
but using a shell command for that delay ties the wait to a process and
does not naturally resume when new turn input arrives.
## What changed
- add a built-in `sleep` tool behind the under-development `sleep_tool`
feature
- accept a bounded `duration_ms` argument, matching the millisecond
convention used by unified exec
- end the sleep early when either steered user input or mailbox input
arrives
- include elapsed wall-clock time in completed and interrupted outputs
- emit a dedicated core `SleepItem` through `item/started` and
`item/completed`
- expose the sleep item as app-server v2 `ThreadItem::Sleep` and retain
it in reconstructed thread history
- regenerate the configuration schema for the new feature flag
- regenerate app-server JSON and TypeScript schema fixtures

## Why
Clients running an app-server on one OS and an exec-server on another OS
need to be able to pass sandbox config to app-server that refers to
resources on the executor's foreign OS.
## What
`AbsolutePathBuf` can't represent these paths and we don't want users to
be exposed to `PathUri` yet, so this moves the public app-server API to
be expressed in terms of `ApiPathString`.
Stacked on #28165.
- change app-server v2 filesystem permission paths, including legacy
read/write roots, to `ApiPathString`
- localize API paths through `PathUri` when converting into the current
native core permission types
- make path-bearing permission conversions fallible and surface
localization failures instead of silently treating malformed grants as
ordinary denials
- propagate conversion failures through app-server and TUI approval
handling
- regenerate the app-server JSON and TypeScript schemas
- leave migration TODOs on native-path conversions so they can be
removed once core permission paths use `PathUri`
## Description
This PR adds an optional `metadata` field to `ResponseItem` for
Responses API calls. Only mechanical plumbing, no actual values
populated and sent yet. Turns out just adding a new field to
`ResponseItem` has quite a large blast radius already.
This change is backwards compatible because `metadata` is optional and
omitted when absent, so existing response items and rollout history
without it still deserialize and requests that do not set it keep the
same wire shape. For provider compatibility, we strip out `metadata`
before non-OpenAI Responses requests so Azure and AWS Bedrock never see
this field.
My followup PR here will actually make use of it to start storing and
passing along `turn_id`: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/28360
## What changed
- Added `ResponseItemMetadata` with optional `turn_id`, plus optional
`metadata` on Responses API item variants and inter-agent communication.
- Preserved item metadata through response-item rewrites such as
truncation, missing tool-output synthesis, compaction history
rebuilding, visible-history conversion, rollout/resume, and generated
app-server schemas/types.
- Strip item metadata from non-OpenAI Responses requests while
preserving it for OpenAI-shaped requests.
- Updated the mechanical fixture/test construction churn required by the
new optional field.
This adds the background plumbing for remote-backed plugin catalog
sections while leaving the fuller directory presentation to the next PR.
The TUI can fetch section-specific remote marketplace results, keep
local plugin data available, and carry section errors forward for later
rendering.
- Fetches explicit remote marketplace kinds for curated, workspace, and
shared-with-me sections.
- Gates shared-with-me loading on the plugin sharing feature flag.
- Adds section-level error state and user-actionable error copy.
- Merges remote marketplace results into the cached plugin list without
discarding local results.
## Why
`terminal_resize_reflow` is now stable and should behave as always on.
Keeping the disabled runtime paths around made the feature look
configurable even though the rollout is complete, and old config could
still suggest there was a supported off mode.
## What Changed
- Marked `terminal_resize_reflow` as `Stage::Removed` while keeping it
default-enabled for compatibility.
- Ignored `[features].terminal_resize_reflow` config entries so stale
`false` settings no longer affect the effective feature set.
- Removed TUI branches that depended on the flag being disabled, so
draw, replay buffering, stream finalization, and resize scheduling all
assume resize reflow is active.
- Simplified resize smoke coverage to exercise the always-on behavior
only.
## Verification
- `just test -p codex-features`
- `just test -p codex-tui resize_reflow`
- `just test -p codex-tui initial_replay_buffer
thread_switch_replay_buffer`
## Why
[#25345](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/25345) was approved,
green, and squash-merged into its stacked base branch,
`fcoury/tokenmaxxing-api`. Four minutes later, that base branch was
force-pushed back to an API-only rebased head while preparing
[#25344](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/25344) for `main`. As a
result, the squash commit from #25345 was orphaned and the TUI command
never reached `main` or a release.
This PR relands the orphaned TUI change from
[`411410b8`](https://github.com/openai/codex/commit/411410b85c2d8eb050d441f17396c5c4048d866f)
on current `main`.
## What changed
- Add `/usage`, `/usage daily`, `/usage weekly`, and `/usage cumulative`
for account token activity.
- Fetch account usage asynchronously through the existing
`account/usage/read` app-server RPC.
- Render daily, weekly, and cumulative activity with theme-aware
terminal palettes and bounded transient cards.
- Preserve transcript ordering while assistant streams, history
consolidations, active cells, and hooks complete.
- Hide `/usage` from completion when backend auth is unavailable while
keeping typed-command guidance.
- Carry current-main behavior forward for cwd-aware Markdown parsing,
Windows Terminal color detection, and personal access token auth.
- Clear pending usage cards on thread rollback and delay completed cards
until live hook output is committed.
- Add focused regression and snapshot coverage for loading, auth errors,
invalid views, rollback, hook ordering, layout, and charts.
## Prior review
The original implementation was approved by Eric Traut in #25345 after
testing multiple themes and light/dark terminals. This PR preserves that
reviewed implementation while adapting it to current `main` and adding
regression coverage for newer rollback and hook lifecycle behavior.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-tui token_activity palette renderable
usage_command` — 37 passed.
- Focused rollback, hook-ordering, and error snapshot tests — 4 passed.
- `just fix -p codex-tui` — passed.
- `UV_CACHE_DIR=/private/tmp/codex-uv-cache just fmt` — passed.
- `cargo insta pending-snapshots` — no pending snapshots.
- `just test -p codex-tui` — 2,870 passed; two unrelated guardian
feature-flag tests failed because their expected `OverrideTurnContext`
event was absent:

-
`update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_review_policy_and_restores_default`
- `just argument-comment-lint` could not complete because the local
Bazel LLVM `compiler-rt` repository is missing `include/sanitizer/*.h`.
The touched Rust diff was manually inspected and no missing
opaque-literal argument comments were found.
## Stack
1. [1 of 3] Support long raw TUI goal objectives - #27508
2. [2 of 3] Support long pasted text in TUI goals - #27509
3. **[3 of 3] Support images in TUI goals** - this PR
## Why
The first two PRs make goal definitions resilient to long text, but
`/goal` still dropped image inputs from the composer. That meant a user
could attach images while defining a goal and the resulting goal
continuation would not have any useful reference to those images.
Goal state still persists only objective text, so image inputs need to
become paths or URLs that the agent can read later.
## What Changed
- Extends TUI `GoalDraft` with local image attachments and remote image
URLs.
- Copies local goal images through the app-server filesystem layer into
the managed goal attachment directory, then rewrites active image
placeholders to file references.
- Appends unplaced local images and remote image URLs to the objective
as referenced image files or URLs.
- Preserves goal image metadata through live `/goal` submission and
queued `/goal` dispatch.
## Verification
- Added goal materialization coverage for local image files and remote
image URLs.
- Added/updated TUI slash-command coverage showing `/goal` drafts
include attached images instead of dropping them.
## Manual Testing
- Attached an image by bracketed-pasting its local path into a live
`/goal` composer. The `[Image #1]` placeholder became a server-host
`image-1.png` reference, copied bytes matched exactly, and no attachment
was written under the TUI's local home.
- Deleted an image placeholder before submitting a small goal and
verified no image was copied.
- Attached PNG and JPEG files to the same goal. Placeholder order was
preserved as `image-1.png` and `image-2.jpg`, and both remote copies
matched their source bytes.
- Tried extensionless, malformed-extension, and
extension/content-mismatched paths; the composer rejected them as image
attachments before goal dispatch rather than creating misleading managed
image files.
- Combined a local image, a large pasted block, and enough raw text to
exceed 4,000 characters. The remote attachment directory contained the
image, paste sidecar, and `goal-objective.md`; all embedded references
used server-host paths and both payloads matched their sources.
- Submitted an image replacement while a goal was active, verified no
image was copied before confirmation, then canceled and confirmed the
attachment count was unchanged.
## Stack
1. [1 of 3] Support long raw TUI goal objectives - #27508
2. **[2 of 3] Support long pasted text in TUI goals** - this PR
3. [3 of 3] Support images in TUI goals - #27510
## Why
Large text pasted into the TUI composer is represented as a paste
placeholder plus pending paste metadata. For `/goal`, preserving only
the visible placeholder is not enough: the agent would see a short
placeholder string instead of the actual pasted text, and the long-text
support from the first PR would never see the payload.
The TUI also needs to avoid writing stale sidecar files when a user
pastes a large block and then deletes its placeholder before submitting
the goal.
## What Changed
- Introduces a TUI `GoalDraft` for goal submissions so `/goal`, `/goal
edit`, and queued goal commands can carry objective text plus text
elements and pending paste payloads.
- Materializes active pasted-text placeholders to `pasted-text-N.txt`
files through the app-server filesystem path introduced in #27508.
- Rewrites active paste placeholders in the persisted objective to file
references, while leaving literal placeholder-looking text alone.
- Filters out deleted paste placeholders so otherwise-small goals do not
require `$CODEX_HOME` or remote filesystem writes.
- Preserves pending paste metadata when a `/goal` command is queued
before a thread exists.
## Verification
- Added goal materialization tests for active paste placeholders,
deleted paste placeholders, and whitespace-only paste payloads.
- Added/updated TUI slash-command tests for large pasted text, queued
`/goal` commands before thread start, and queued oversized goal
behavior.
## Manual Testing
- Used real terminal bracketed-paste sequences through a remote TUI
session. A 1,228-byte multiline paste became `pasted-text-1.txt`; its
first/last lines and byte count matched exactly, and the persisted
objective referenced the server-host path.
- Pasted a large block, deleted its placeholder, and submitted a small
replacement objective. No new directory or sidecar file was created.
- Added two same-length large pastes to one goal. The composer
disambiguated their visible placeholders, and materialization preserved
order and contents in `pasted-text-1.txt` and `pasted-text-2.txt`.
- Submitted a whitespace-only large paste and verified the goal was
rejected as empty without writing a file.
- Submitted a pasted-text replacement while another goal was active,
verified no file was written before confirmation, then canceled and
confirmed the original goal remained unchanged.
- Combined a large paste with enough raw text to exceed 4,000 characters
after placeholder rewriting. The paste sidecar and `goal-objective.md`
were created in the same remote attachment directory, and `/goal edit`
restored the rewritten objective with its sidecar reference.
## Why
Removes the realtime audio support from TUI.
## What Changed
- Removed the TUI `/realtime` and realtime `/settings` command paths.
- Deleted TUI voice capture/playback, WebRTC session handling,
audio-device selection UI, and recording-meter code.
- Removed TUI realtime tests and snapshots that covered the deleted
surfaces.
- Dropped the TUI-only `cpal` and `codex-realtime-webrtc` dependencies
and refreshed the Rust/Bazel locks.
## Why
Fixes#27735.
Side conversations are ephemeral forks, and thread rollback currently
requires persisted thread history. The normal backtrack path already
rejected editing previous prompts in side conversations, but
transcript-mode backtrack could still call the rollback path and surface
the core `thread/rollback` failure as a TUI error.
## What changed
- Moved the existing side-conversation edit rejection message into
`app_backtrack.rs` so backtrack rollback code can reuse it.
- Added a side-conversation guard in `apply_backtrack_rollback` so
transcript-mode confirmation is rejected before submitting
`thread/rollback`.
## Verification
- `just test -p codex-tui
app::tests::side_backtrack_rejection_reports_unavailable_message_snapshot`
## Why
`request_user_input` is moving beyond its original plan-mode-only
workflow, and future default/goal-mode usage needs a way for the model
to ask helpful but non-blocking questions without forcing the turn to
wait forever. This PR adds an explicit `autoResolutionMs` contract so a
later client/runtime change can auto-resolve unanswered prompts after a
bounded window while leaving truly blocking questions unchanged.
This is contract plumbing only; it does not implement the client-side
timer or auto-selection behavior, and the model-facing description
treats the field as reserved unless the current runtime explicitly
supports auto-resolution.
## What Changed
- Added optional `autoResolutionMs` to the model-facing
`request_user_input` args and core `RequestUserInputEvent`.
- Added model-facing schema text for `autoResolutionMs` while marking it
reserved for runtimes that explicitly support auto-resolution.
- Bounds `autoResolutionMs` to `60_000..=240_000` ms during argument
normalization by clamping out-of-range model-provided values.
- Propagated the field through app-server v2
`ToolRequestUserInputParams`, app-server request forwarding, generated
TypeScript, and JSON schema fixtures.
- Updated app-server, core, protocol, and TUI call sites/tests so
omitted values preserve existing `None`/`null` behavior and coverage
verifies a `Some(60_000)` round trip.
## Verification
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `just test -p codex-core request_user_input`
- `just test -p codex-app-server request_user_input_round_trip`
- `just test -p codex-tui request_user_input`
- `just test -p codex-protocol`
## Stack
1. **[1 of 3] Support long raw TUI goal objectives** - this PR
2. [2 of 3] Support long pasted text in TUI goals - #27509
3. [3 of 3] Support images in TUI goals - #27510
## Why
`thread/goal/set` limits persisted objective text to 4000 characters.
The TUI used to reject raw `/goal` objectives above that limit, even
though the client can make them usable by writing the long text to a
file and storing a short objective that points at that file.
This also needs to work for remote app-server sessions: filesystem API
calls must create files on the app-server host, and the stored path must
be meaningful to the agent on that host.
## What Changed
- Adds an app-server-host path helper so TUI code can build paths that
are resolved on the app-server host rather than the TUI host.
- Adds TUI app-server session helpers for `fs/createDirectory`,
`fs/writeFile`, `fs/readFile`, and `fs/remove` that work for embedded
and remote app-server sessions without changing the app-server protocol.
- Materializes oversized raw `/goal` objectives into
`$CODEX_HOME/attachments/<uuid>/goal-objective.md` through the
app-server filesystem APIs, then stores a short, readable objective that
directs the agent to that file.
- Reads managed objective files back for `/goal edit`. Other goal UI
renders the readable stored objective normally, without
managed-file-specific presentation logic.
- Recognizes managed references only when they name the expected
generated file under the app server's reported `$CODEX_HOME`, and cleans
up newly materialized files when goal replacement or setting does not
complete.
## Verification
- Added/updated TUI tests for raw oversized `/goal` submission, large
inline-paste expansion, queued oversized goals, app-facing
materialization before `thread/goal/set`, managed-path validation,
editing, and cleanup.
- Added/updated app-server-client remote coverage for initialized remote
Codex home handling.
## Manual Testing
- Ran the real TUI against a Unix-socket app server with different local
and server `$CODEX_HOME` directories. Oversized goals wrote only under
the server home, and persisted references used the server-canonical path
rather than the TUI path.
- Exercised 3,999-, 4,000-, and 4,001-character raw objectives. The
first two stayed inline without new files; the 4,001-character objective
became a managed objective file.
- Submitted a larger 8,275-character objective, verified its full
contents on the app-server host, and observed the goal continuation open
the referenced server-side file.
- Opened `/goal edit` for a managed objective and verified the full text
was restored through remote `fs/readFile`.
- Submitted an oversized replacement while a goal was active, verified
no file was written before confirmation, then canceled and confirmed
that the existing goal and attachment count were unchanged.
## Summary
TUI exits printed the resume/session summary only after checking the
exit reason. On fatal exits, both CLI wrappers wrote the error and
called `process::exit(1)` immediately, so an active session that ended
on a fatal error could skip the session information entirely.
This change prints the normal exit summary before returning the fatal
nonzero exit code. If a fatal exit has a known thread id but no
resumable rollout hint, it prints `Session ID: <id>` instead of staying
silent. It also flushes stdout before `process::exit(1)` so the summary
line is not lost during process teardown.
## Implementation
- Apply the fatal-exit ordering fix in both `codex` and standalone
`codex-tui`.
- Keep normal user-requested exit behavior unchanged.
- Preserve the existing resume hint when a rollout is resumable, and use
the raw thread id only as a fatal-exit fallback.
## Why
This is part of an ongoing attempt to eliminate the TUI's direct
dependency on core features. When we moved the TUI to the app server, we
left a `legacy_core` shim that re-exported some remaining core symbols
for the TUI. The intent was to eventually remove all of these.
In this PR, we remove the symbols related to the Windows sandbox.
The change should be behavior-neutral and low risk because it's just
refactoring and removal of code that is now effectively dead.
When working on this PR, I noticed a big existing problem that affects
mixed-platform remoting. For example, if you run the TUI on a Linux box
and remote into a Windows box, the TUI logic doesn't properly handle
Windows sandbox setup properly. Fixing this is beyond the scope of this
PR, but I've left a TODO comment in place so we don't forget.
## What changed
- Move the remaining TUI-specific sandbox level, setup, telemetry, and
read-root helpers into `codex-tui`, calling `codex-windows-sandbox`
directly.
- Remove the Windows sandbox namespace and read-root grant re-exports
from the client-side `legacy_core` facade.
- Remove the dormant pre-elevation prompt fallback guarded by the
permanently enabled `ELEVATED_SANDBOX_NUX_ENABLED` switch. The reachable
elevated and non-elevated setup flows remain unchanged.
## Summary
The app server exposes `thread/delete`, but users cannot invoke it from
the CLI or TUI. Because deletion is irreversible, the user-facing
commands need deliberate confirmation and safer handling of name-based
targets.
- Add `codex delete <SESSION>` with interactive confirmation,
restricting `--force` to UUID targets.
- Resolve exact names across active and archived sessions, including
renamed sessions, and validate prompted UUID targets before
confirmation.
- Add a `/delete` command with a confirmation popup that warns the
current session and its subagent threads will be permanently deleted.
## Manual testing
- Deleted by UUID with `--force` and verified the rollout, session-index
entry, and database row were removed.
- Exercised name-based confirmation for both cancellation and
affirmative deletion; cancellation preserved the session and
confirmation removed it.
- Verified deletion refuses to proceed without `--force`, while
`--force` rejects names, including duplicate names.
- Verified duplicate-name confirmation displays the concrete UUID
selected.
- Deleted an archived session by name.
- Verified an already-missing UUID fails before displaying a
confirmation prompt.
- Exercised `/delete` in the TUI: the popup defaults to No, cancellation
preserves the session, and confirmation deletes the session and exits.
- Verified that `codex delete` works for both archived and non-archived
sessions.
## Why
The TUI now sits on the app-server layer, but
`app-server-client::legacy_core` still exposed core test helpers solely
for TUI tests. We've been whittling away the remaining dependencies.
This is the next step on that journey.
There is no functional change — just a refactor, and this affects only
test code, so it should be low risk.
## What changed
- remove the `legacy_core::test_support` re-export and call
model-manager test helpers directly
- keep the bundled model-preset cache local to TUI test support
- import constraint types directly from `codex-config`
## Why
External-agent import should be discoverable and deliberate without
blocking startup or claiming the public `codex [PROMPT]` CLI namespace.
The slash command keeps the flow local to the interactive TUI and reuses
the existing app-server import API.
## What changed
- add the user-facing `/import` slash command
- detect external-agent importable items only when the command is
invoked
- run imports through the embedded local app-server
- show start and completion messages, refresh configuration, and block
duplicate imports while one is pending
- reject the flow for unsupported remote and local-daemon sessions
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-tui external_agent_config_migration` (10 passed)
- manually exercised an isolated TUI fixture with existing
external-agent setup and session data using a fresh `CODEX_HOME`
- verified picker customization, plugin and session detection, import
completion, repeated invocation, and imported-session resume context
- the broader `just test -p codex-tui` run passed 2,805 tests, with 2
unrelated guardian feature-flag failures and 4 skipped tests
## Draft follow-ups
- review whether completion messaging should remain attached to the
initiating chat if the user switches chats during an import
- review shutdown semantics for an in-progress background import

## Why
Clients can archive and unarchive threads today, but there is no
app-server API for permanently removing a thread. Deletion also needs to
cover the full session tree: deleting a main thread should remove
spawned subagent threads and the related local metadata instead of
leaving orphaned rollout files, goals, or subagent state behind.
## What
- Adds the v2 `thread/delete` request and `thread/deleted` notification,
with the response shape kept consistent with `thread/archive`.
- Implements local hard delete for active and archived rollout files.
- Deletes the requested thread's state DB row as the commit point, then
best-effort cleans associated state including spawned descendants,
goals, spawn edges, logs, dynamic tools, and agent job assignments.
- Updates app-server API docs and generated protocol schema/TypeScript
fixtures.
This changes the `/review` escape path so `Esc` no longer behaves like
the normal queued-follow-up interrupt flow while a review is running.
Steering is not currently supported in `/review` mode, without this
change users are able to attempt a steer but it leads to a crash (see
#22815). If the user has already tried to send additional guidance
during `/review`, the TUI now keeps the review running and shows a
warning that steer messages are not supported in that mode, while still
pointing users to `Ctrl+C` if they actually want to cancel. It also adds
regression coverage for the review-specific warning behavior. When users
do cancel with Ctrl+C during /review, the TUI now tolerates the
active-turn race that can happen during review handoff, and any queued
steer messages are restored to the composer instead of being discarded.
- Special-case `Esc` during an active `/review` when follow-up steer
input is pending or has already been deferred.
- Show a clear warning instead of interrupting the running review.
- Make the Ctrl+C cancel path during /review resilient to active-turn
races, while preserving any queued steer text by restoring it to the
composer.
- Add review-mode test coverage for the warning path.
## Testing
1. Start a `/review` with a diff large enough that the review stays
active for more than a few seconds.
2. While the review is still running, type a follow-up / steer message,
submit it, and then press `Esc`.
Before: `Esc` causes the TUI to close abruptly.
After: the review keeps running and the transcript shows a warning that
steer messages are not supported during `/review`, with guidance to use
`Ctrl+C` if you want to cancel.
3. Press `Ctrl+C` if you actually want to stop the review.
Before: (after restarting the test since Pt. 2 crashed) this is the
intentional cancellation path.
After: this remains the intentional cancellation path, and any queued
follow-up steer text is restored to the composer instead of being lost.
## Note:
`/review` mode explicitly does not support steering at this time (as
noted in `turn_processer.rs`, if we want to explore that in the future
this code will need to be modified). This change keeps unsupported steer
attempts from crashing the TUI and preserves queued follow-up text if
the user cancels with Ctrl+C.
## Why
Multi-agent v2 identifies agents by canonical paths, but its tool
handlers still emitted the larger legacy collaboration begin/end events
built around nickname and role metadata. App-server, rollout-trace,
analytics, and TUI consumers therefore lacked one compact path-based
completion signal that behaved consistently across live events and
replay.
The TUI also needs a bounded `/agent` status surface for v2 agents. It
should use recent local activity for previews, refresh liveness without
loading full histories, and keep the legacy picker available when no
path-backed v2 agent is known.
## What changed
- Replace the v2 `spawn_agent`, `send_message`, `followup_task`, and
`interrupt_agent` legacy lifecycle emissions with a success-only
`SubAgentActivity` event. The event records the tool call ID, occurrence
time, affected thread, canonical agent path, and `started`,
`interacted`, or `interrupted` kind.
- Expose the activity as a completion-only app-server v2
`subAgentActivity` thread item in live notifications and reconstructed
history, regenerate the protocol schemas, and count it in sub-agent tool
analytics.
- Track canonical paths from live activity and loaded-thread metadata in
the TUI, and render the activity in live and replayed transcripts.
- Make `/agent` list running path-backed agents with summaries from
bounded local event buffers. Each summary is capped at 240 graphemes,
the scan is capped at six recent items, only the last three wrapped
lines are shown, and command output is omitted. Liveness falls back to
metadata-only `thread/read` when local turn state is unavailable.
- Persist the activity as a terminal rollout-trace runtime payload and
reduce it to the corresponding spawn, send, follow-up, or close
interaction edge. `interrupt_agent` is classified as a close-edge
operation.
- Preserve the legacy picker when no path-backed v2 agent is known.
## Compatibility
App-server v2 clients that consumed `collabAgentToolCall` begin/end
pairs for these tools must handle the new completion-only
`subAgentActivity` item. Legacy v1 collaboration behavior is unchanged.

## Testing
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `just test -p codex-rollout-trace`
- Added focused coverage for activity analytics, terminal trace
serialization, spawn-edge reduction, `interrupt_agent` classification,
TUI status rendering without aggregated command output, and clearing
stale running state after a completed turn.
Fixes a TUI regression where thread transitions such as `/new` and
`/clear` could rebuild config without the cloud requirements loader,
allowing users to fall back to non-cloud-managed settings. The config
refresh path now preserves cloud requirements during thread
reinitialization, and config loading is moved off the deep TUI event
stack to avoid stack-overflow crashes during those reloads.
- Passes the cloud requirements loader through TUI config rebuild paths.
- Keeps cloud requirements applied for `/new`, `/clear`, `/fork`, side
conversations, and session picker transitions.
- Runs config building on a Tokio task so reloads do not occur on the
deep TUI caller stack.
- Adds regression coverage that cloud requirements survive
thread-transition config refreshes.
## Test/Repro:
- Start Codex with a cloud requirement applied.
- Use `/new` or `/clear`.
- The refreshed/fresh-session config should still include the cloud
requirements
This can be tested with any config item, at this moment for oai staff
the easiest item to test is the `mentions_v2` feature. This is currently
enabled in cloud requirements, but is not enabled by default. As a
result, prior to these changes that feature is disabled after `/new` or
`/clear`. Testing the same steps with a binary from this branch should
not drop the feature enablement.
## Why
Auto Review should remain the effective approval reviewer when settings
cross runtime boundaries. A config or app-server round trip must not
change the reviewer identity, and delegated work must not silently fall
back to user review.
This requires both a stable canonical serialized value and propagation
of the effective setting. `auto_review` is the canonical value across
protocol and app-server output, while `guardian_subagent` remains
accepted as backward-compatible input.
## What changed
- serialize `ApprovalsReviewer::AutoReview` consistently as
`auto_review` across core protocol and app-server v2
- continue accepting `guardian_subagent` when reading existing config or
client requests
- carry the active turn's approval reviewer into spawned agents
- update config/debug expectations and add delegated-task regression
coverage
## Scope
This does not change Guardian policy or remove compatibility with
existing `guardian_subagent` inputs. It preserves the selected reviewer
across serialization, config reloads, app-server settings, and delegated
task setup.
Related Guardian changes are split independently:
- #26231 adds denials and soft denials
- #26334 retries transient reviewer failures
- #26333 reuses narrowly scoped low-risk approvals
- #26232 adds TUI denial recovery
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol` (224 passed)
- regression coverage for delegated task reviewer propagation
- serialization coverage for canonical `auto_review` output and legacy
`guardian_subagent` input

## Why
MCP startup failures from spawned subagents were rendered as global
notifications, so a child thread's failure could pollute the visible
parent transcript. Routing the notification to the child exposed two
related replay problems: session refresh could discard the buffered
event, and a newly created child `ChatWidget` did not know the expected
MCP server set, which could leave its startup spinner running after
every server had settled.
MCP startup diagnostics should remain visible in the thread that owns
the startup without affecting other transcripts. The protocol also needs
to support a future app-scoped MCP lifecycle where startup is not owned
by any thread.
## Reported Behavior
The [originating Slack
report](https://openai.slack.com/archives/C08JZTV654K/p1780604538859939)
called out that using subagents could turn MCP startup failures into a
wall of yellow CLI warnings because repeated failures were not
deduplicated. The intended behavior is for those diagnostics to remain
visible once in the thread that owns the startup, without polluting the
parent transcript.
## What Changed
- add nullable `threadId` ownership to `mcpServer/startupStatus/updated`
- populate it from the app-server conversation ID for the current
thread-scoped lifecycle and regenerate the protocol schema and
TypeScript artifacts
- treat a missing or null `threadId` as app-scoped without injecting it
into the active chat transcript
- route and buffer thread-owned MCP startup notifications by thread in
the TUI
- preserve buffered MCP startup events across child session refresh
- seed expected MCP servers before replaying a thread snapshot so
startup reaches its terminal state
- suppress an identical repeated failure warning for the same server
within one startup round
The owning thread still renders the detailed failure and final `MCP
startup incomplete (...)` summary.
## How to Test
1. Configure an optional MCP server named `smoke` that exits during
initialization.
2. Launch the TUI with multi-agent support enabled.
3. Confirm the main thread's own startup failure renders one detailed
`smoke` warning and one incomplete-startup summary.
4. Spawn exactly one subagent.
5. Confirm the parent transcript does not receive the subagent's MCP
startup failure.
6. Switch to the subagent thread and confirm it contains exactly one
detailed `smoke` failure and one incomplete-startup summary.
7. Confirm the subagent's MCP startup spinner disappears and the thread
remains usable.
8. Switch between the parent and subagent and confirm the warnings
neither move nor duplicate.
Targeted tests:
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `just test -p codex-app-server
thread_start_emits_mcp_server_status_updated_notifications`
- `just test -p codex-tui mcp_startup`
The parent/child behavior and spinner completion were also exercised
manually in tmux. `just argument-comment-lint` was attempted but blocked
by an unrelated local Bazel LLVM empty-glob failure; touched Rust
callsites were inspected manually.
Skill reloads can get noisy when the watcher keeps triggering
`skills/list` and the same invalid `SKILL.md` error comes back each
time.
This keeps the first warning visible, then suppresses repeats while the
same `(path, message)` is still active. If the error clears and later
comes back, or if the message changes, it will show again.
Validation:
- `just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-tui skill_load_warning_state`
## Summary
- add v2 personal access token support for `codex login
--with-access-token` and `CODEX_ACCESS_TOKEN`
- classify opaque `at-` tokens separately from legacy Agent Identity
JWTs
- hydrate required ChatGPT account metadata through AuthAPI
`/v1/user-auth-credential/whoami`
- use PATs directly as bearer tokens while preserving existing ChatGPT
account surfaces
- expose PAT-backed auth as the explicit `personalAccessToken`
app-server auth mode
## Implementation
PAT auth is intentionally small and stateless. Loading a PAT performs
one AuthAPI metadata request, stores the hydrated metadata in the
in-memory auth object, and redacts the secret from debug output. Legacy
Agent Identity JWT handling remains unchanged. The shared access-token
classifier lives in a private neutral module because it dispatches
between both credential types.
PAT hydration fails closed when AuthAPI omits any required metadata,
including email. Hydrated metadata is intentionally not persisted:
startup performs a live `whoami` preflight so revoked tokens or changed
account metadata are not accepted from a stale cache.
## Workspace restriction scope
This change intentionally does **not** apply
`forced_chatgpt_workspace_id` to PAT authentication. The setting is a
client-side config guardrail, not an authorization boundary, and PAT
does not currently require workspace-ID parity. The PAT login and
`CODEX_ACCESS_TOKEN` paths therefore validate through AuthAPI without
threading workspace-restriction state through access-token loading.
Existing workspace checks for non-PAT auth remain on their established
paths.
## App-server compatibility
The public app-server `AuthMode` is shared across v1 and v2, and
PAT-backed auth reports `personalAccessToken` through both APIs.
Following human review, this intentionally removes the temporary v1
compatibility mapping that reported PATs as `chatgpt`; the deprecated v1
API is kept in parity with v2 rather than maintaining a separate closed
enum. Clients with exhaustive auth-mode handling in either API version
must add the new case and should generally treat it as ChatGPT-backed
unless they need PAT-specific behavior.
The v1 auth-status response still omits the raw PAT when `includeToken`
is requested because that response cannot carry the account metadata
needed to reuse the credential safely. Persisted PAT auth also omits the
new enum value so older Codex builds can deserialize `auth.json` and
infer PAT auth from the credential field after a rollback.

The broader `codex-tui` suite previously compiled and ran 2,834 tests.
Three unrelated environment-sensitive guardian/IDE-socket tests failed
after retries; the PAT-relevant TUI coverage passed.
## Why
The TUI's `/goal` usage text only advertised the objective form even
though `/goal clear`, `/goal edit`, `/goal pause`, and `/goal resume`
are implemented. This made the lifecycle controls difficult to discover
and allowed the duplicated help text to drift from actual behavior.
Fixes#25530.
## What changed
- Show the complete `/goal [<objective>|clear|edit|pause|resume]` syntax
in usage messages.
- Share one usage string across slash-command dispatch and goal-related
app messages.
- Add inline snapshot coverage for the control-command usage path.
## Summary
TUI config writes currently wrap app-server failures with local context
like `config/batchWrite failed in TUI`, but several user-visible paths
only render the outer error. That hides the actionable app-server
message, such as validation constraints or read-only `CODEX_HOME`
failures, leaving users with a dead-end diagnostic.
This change adds a small formatter next to the TUI config write helpers
that renders the error source chain, then uses it for model persistence,
feature persistence, project trust, status line writes, hook trust, and
hook enablement.
Fixes#26077
## Why
First-party backends can supply turn-scoped moderation metadata that
app-server clients need for client-side presentation. Exposing this as
an experimental typed notification lets opted-in clients consume it
without interpreting raw Responses API events.
## What changed
- forward `response.metadata.openai_chatgpt_moderation_metadata` from
Responses API SSE and WebSocket streams as turn-scoped moderation
metadata
- emit the experimental app-server v2 `turn/moderationMetadata`
notification with `{ threadId, turnId, metadata }`
- add app-server integration coverage for the typed moderation metadata
notification
## Testing
- `just test -p codex-core
build_ws_client_metadata_includes_window_lineage_and_turn_metadata`
- `just test -p codex-core` (fails locally: 46 failures and 1 timeout,
primarily missing `test_stdio_server` and shell snapshot timeouts)
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `just test -p codex-app-server
turn_moderation_metadata_emits_typed_notification_v2`
- `just test -p codex-app-server` (fails locally: 792 passed, 10 failed,
and 5 timed out; failures are in existing environment-sensitive tests,
primarily because nested macOS `sandbox-exec` is not permitted)
- `just write-app-server-schema --experimental --schema-root
/tmp/codex-app-server-schema-experimental`
## Summary
- preserve the model catalog order for app-server
`supportedReasoningEfforts` and document that client contract
- render TUI reasoning choices in the advertised order
- step reasoning shortcuts by adjacent list position instead of deriving
order from known effort names
- anchor unsupported configured values to the advertised default, or the
first option when needed
- remove canonical effort ordering helpers and the unused upgrade effort
mapping
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- Local tests and compilation were not run per request; relying on CI.
