## Why
Some MCP OAuth providers require a pre-registered public client ID and
cannot rely on dynamic client registration. Codex already supports MCP
OAuth, but it had no way to supply that client ID from config into the
PKCE flow.
## What changed
- add `oauth.client_id` under `[mcp_servers.<server>]` config, including
config editing and schema generation
- thread the configured client ID through CLI, app-server, plugin login,
and MCP skill dependency OAuth entrypoints
- configure RMCP authorization with the explicit client when present,
while preserving the existing dynamic-registration path when it is
absent
- add focused coverage for config parsing/serialization and OAuth URL
generation
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-config -p codex-rmcp-client -p codex-mcp -p
codex-core-plugins`
- `cargo test -p codex-core blocking_replace_mcp_servers_round_trips
--lib`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
replace_mcp_servers_streamable_http_serializes_oauth_resource --lib`
- `cargo test -p codex-core config_schema_matches_fixture --lib`
## Notes
Broader local package runs still hit unrelated pre-existing stack
overflows in:
- `codex-app-server::in_process_start_clamps_zero_channel_capacity`
-
`codex-core::resume_agent_from_rollout_uses_edge_data_when_descendant_metadata_source_is_stale`
## Why
`--profile-v2 <name>` gives launchers and runtime entry points a named
profile config without making each profile duplicate the base user
config. The base `$CODEX_HOME/config.toml` still loads first, then
`$CODEX_HOME/<name>.config.toml` layers above it and becomes the active
writable user config for that session.
That keeps shared defaults, plugin/MCP setup, and managed/user
constraints in one place while letting a named profile override only the
pieces that need to differ.
## What Changed
- Added the shared `--profile-v2 <name>` runtime option with validated
plain names, now represented by `ProfileV2Name`.
- Extended config layer state so the base user config and selected
profile config are both `User` layers; APIs expose the active user layer
and merged effective user config.
- Threaded profile selection through runtime entry points: `codex`,
`codex exec`, `codex review`, `codex resume`, `codex fork`, and `codex
debug prompt-input`.
- Made user-facing config writes go to the selected profile file when
active, including TUI/settings persistence, app-server config writes,
and MCP/app tool approval persistence.
- Made plugin, marketplace, MCP, hooks, and config reload paths read
from the merged user config so base and profile layers both participate.
- Updated app-server config layer schemas to mark profile-backed user
layers.
## Limits
`--profile-v2` is still rejected for config-management subcommands such
as feature, MCP, and marketplace edits. Those paths remain tied to the
base `config.toml` until they have explicit profile-selection semantics.
Some adjacent background writes may still update base or global state
rather than the selected profile:
- marketplace auto-upgrade metadata
- automatic MCP dependency installs from skills
- remote plugin sync or uninstall config edits
- personality migration marker/default writes
## Verification
Added targeted coverage for profile name validation, layer
ordering/merging, selected-profile writes, app-server config writes,
session hot reload, plugin config merging, hooks/config fixture updates,
and MCP/app approval persistence.

## Summary
- emit `codex_plugin_installed` after a remote plugin install succeeds
- keep local installs unchanged, but let remote installs override the
analytics `plugin_id` with the backend remote plugin id
(`plugins~Plugin_...`)
- preserve the local/display identity in `plugin_name` and
`marketplace_name`, plus capability metadata from the installed bundle
- add regression coverage for local install analytics, remote install
analytics, and analytics id override serialization
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-analytics`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server`
## Why
We need a way to list the available hooks to expose via the TUI and App
so users can view and manage their hooks
## What
- Adds `hooks/list` for one or more `cwd` values that returns discovered
hook metadata

## Review Notes
The generated schema files account for most of the raw diff, these files
have the core change:
- `hooks/src/engine/discovery.rs` builds the inventory entries during
hook discovery while leaving runtime handlers focused on execution.
- `app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs` wires `hooks/list` into
the app-server flow for each requested `cwd`.
- `app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2.rs` defines the new v2
request/response payloads exposed on the wire.
### Core Changes
`core/src/plugins/manager.rs` adds `plugins_for_layer_stack(...)` so
`skills/list` and `hooks/list`can resolve plugin state for each
requested `cwd`

Plugin MCP servers are loaded from plugin manifests rather than
top-level `[mcp_servers]`, so their tool approval preferences need to be
stored and applied through the owning plugin config. Without this,
choosing "Always allow" for a plugin MCP tool could write a preference
that was not reliably used on later tool calls.
## Summary
- Add plugin-scoped MCP policy config under
`plugins.<plugin>.mcp_servers`, including server enablement, tool
allow/deny lists, server defaults, and per-tool approval modes.
- Overlay plugin MCP policy onto manifest-provided server configs when
plugins are loaded.
- Route persistent "Always allow" writes for plugin MCP tools back to
the owning `plugins.<plugin>.mcp_servers.<server>.tools.<tool>` config
entry.
- Reload user config after persisting an approval and make the plugin
load cache config-aware so stale plugin MCP policy is not reused after
`config.toml` changes.
- Regenerate the config schema and add coverage for plugin MCP policy
loading, approval lookup, persistence, and stale-cache prevention.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-config`
- `cargo test -p codex-core-plugins`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib plugin_mcp`
- Fetches and caches remote /installed plugin state
- Lets skills/list load skills from remote-installed cached plugins
without requiring a local marketplace entry
- Routes plugin list/startup/install/uninstall changes through async
plugin cache invalidation and MCP refresh
## Why
Plugins can bundle lifecycle hooks, but Codex previously only discovered
hooks from user, project, and managed config layers. This adds the
plugin discovery and runtime plumbing needed for plugin-bundled hooks
while keeping execution behind the `plugin_hooks` feature flag.
## What
- Discovers plugin hook sources from each plugin's default
`hooks/hooks.json`.
- Supports `plugin.json` manifest `hooks` entries as either relative
paths or inline hook objects.
- Plumbs discovered plugin hook sources through plugin loading into the
hook runtime when `plugin_hooks` is enabled.
- Marks plugin-originated hook runs as `HookSource::Plugin`.
- Injects `PLUGIN_ROOT` and `CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT` into plugin hook
command environments.
- Updates generated schemas and hook source metadata for the plugin hook
source.
## Stack

2. openai/codex#19778
3. openai/codex#19840
4. openai/codex#19882
## Reviewer Notes
- Core logic is in `codex-rs/core-plugins/src/loader.rs` and
`codex-rs/hooks/src/engine/discovery.rs`
- Moved existing / adding new tests to
`codex-rs/core-plugins/src/loader_tests.rs` hence the large diff there
- Otherwise mostly plumbing and minor schema updates
### Core Changes
The `codex-rs/core` changes are limited to wiring plugin hook support
into existing core flows:
- `core/src/session/session.rs` conditionally pulls effective plugin
hook sources and plugin hook load warnings from `PluginsManager` when
`plugin_hooks` is enabled, then passes them into `HooksConfig`.
- `core/src/hook_runtime.rs` adds the `plugin` metric tag for
`HookSource::Plugin`.
- `core/config.schema.json` picks up the new `plugin_hooks` feature
flag, and `core/src/plugins/manager_tests.rs` updates fixtures for the
added plugin hook fields.

## Summary
Fixes#16637. (I hit this bug after 11h of work on a long-running task.)
Plugin cache initialization could panic when an already-absolute cache
path was normalized through `AbsolutePathBuf::from_absolute_path`,
because that path still consulted `current_dir()`.
This changes absolute-path normalization so already-absolute paths do
not depend on cwd, and makes plugin cache root construction available as
a fallible path through `PluginStore::try_new()`. Plugin cache subpaths
now use `AbsolutePathBuf::join()` instead of re-absolutizing derived
absolute paths.
## Summary
- add first-class marketplace support for git-backed plugin sources
- keep the newer marketplace parsing behavior from `main`, including
alternate manifest locations and string local sources
- materialize remote plugin sources during install, detail reads, and
non-curated cache refresh
- expose git plugin source metadata through the app-server protocol
## Details
This teaches the marketplace parser to accept all of the following:
- local string sources such as `"source": "./plugins/foo"`
- local object sources such as
`{"source":"local","path":"./plugins/foo"}`
- remote repo-root sources such as
`{"source":"url","url":"https://github.com/org/repo.git"}`
- remote subdir sources such as
`{"source":"git-subdir","url":"owner/repo","path":"plugins/foo","ref":"main","sha":"..."}`
It also preserves the newer tolerant behavior from `main`: invalid or
unsupported plugin entries are skipped instead of breaking the whole
marketplace.
## Validation
- `cargo test -p codex-core plugins::marketplace::tests`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `just fmt`
## Notes
- A full `cargo test -p codex-core` run still hit unrelated existing
failures in agent and multi-agent tests during this session; the
marketplace-focused suite passed after the rebase resolution.
Load plugin manifests through a shared discoverable-path helper so
manifest reads, installs, and skill names all see the same alternate
manifest location.
## Summary
- Add best-effort auto-upgrade for user-configured Git marketplaces
recorded in `config.toml`.
- Track the last activated Git revision with `last_revision` so
unchanged marketplace sources skip clone work.
- Trigger the upgrade from plugin startup and `plugin/list`, while
preserving existing fail-open plugin behavior with warning logs rather
than new user-visible errors.
## Details
- Remote configured marketplaces use `git ls-remote` to compare the
source/ref against the recorded revision.
- Upgrades clone into a staging directory, validate that
`.agents/plugins/marketplace.json` exists and that the manifest name
matches the configured marketplace key, then atomically activate the new
root.
- Local `.agents/plugins/marketplace.json` marketplaces remain live
filesystem state and are not auto-pulled.
- Existing non-curated plugin cache refresh is kicked after successful
marketplace root upgrades.
## Validation
- `just write-config-schema`
- `cargo test -p codex-core marketplace_upgrade`
- `cargo check -p codex-cli -p codex-app-server`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
Did not run the complete `cargo test` suite because the repo
instructions require asking before a full core workspace run.
Split plugin loading, marketplace, and related infrastructure out of
core into codex-core-plugins, while keeping the core-facing
configuration and orchestration flow in codex-core.
