## Why
A long-running unified exec process started with `tty: false` could not
be interrupted via `write_stdin`: ordinary non-TTY stdin writes are
rejected once stdin is closed, but an exact U+0003 payload should still
map to a process interrupt. The interrupt should flow through the same
process lifecycle path as a real signal so Codex preserves
process-reported output and exit metadata instead of fabricating a
Ctrl-C exit code or tearing down the session early.
## What Changed
- Add `process/signal` to exec-server with `ProcessSignal::Interrupt`
and an empty response.
- Add a non-consuming `ProcessHandle::signal` path for spawned
processes; on Unix it sends SIGINT to the process group and leaves
terminate/hard-kill unchanged.
- Route non-TTY U+0003 `write_stdin` through `process.signal(...)`
instead of `terminate`, then let the normal post-write collection path
drain output and observe exit.
- Add exec-server coverage where a shell `trap INT` handler prints the
signal and exits with its own code.
- Add unified exec coverage where a `tty: false` process traps SIGINT,
emits output, and exits with its own code.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-exec-server
exec_process_signal_interrupts_process`
- `just test -p codex-exec-server`
- `just test -p codex-core
write_stdin_ctrl_c_interrupts_non_tty_session`
## Summary
This is the runtime/foundation half of the Windows sandbox unified-exec
work.
- add Windows sandbox `unified_exec` session support in
`windows-sandbox-rs` for both:
- the legacy restricted-token backend
- the elevated runner backend
- extend the PTY/process runtime so driver-backed sessions can support:
- stdin streaming
- stdout/stderr separation
- exit propagation
- PTY resize hooks
- add Windows sandbox runtime coverage in `codex-windows-sandbox` /
`codex-utils-pty`
This PR does **not** enable Windows sandbox `UnifiedExec` for product
callers yet because hooking this up to app-server comes in the next PR.
Windows sandbox advertising is intentionally kept aligned with `main`,
so sandboxed Windows callers still fall back to `ShellCommand`.
This PR isolates the runtime/session layer so it can be reviewed
independently from product-surface enablement.

Follow-up to https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18178, where we called
out enabling the await-holding lint as a follow-up.
The long-term goal is to enable Clippy coverage for async guards held
across awaits. This PR is intentionally only the first, low-risk cleanup
pass: it narrows obvious lock guard lifetimes and leaves
`codex-rs/Cargo.toml` unchanged so the lint is not enabled until the
remaining cases are fixed or explicitly justified. It intentionally
leaves the active-turn/turn-state locking pattern alone because those
checks and mutations need to stay atomic.
## Common fixes used here
These are the main patterns reviewers should expect in this PR, and they
are also the patterns to reach for when fixing future `await_holding_*`
findings:
- **Scope the guard to the synchronous work.** If the code only needs
data from a locked value, move the lock into a small block, clone or
compute the needed values, and do the later `.await` after the block.
- **Use direct one-line mutations when there is no later await.** Cases
like `map.lock().await.remove(&id)` are acceptable when the guard is
only needed for that single mutation and the statement ends before any
async work.
- **Drain or clone work out of the lock before notifying or awaiting.**
For example, the JS REPL drains pending exec senders into a local vector
and the websocket writer clones buffered envelopes before it serializes
or sends them.
- **Use a `Semaphore` only when serialization is intentional across
async work.** The test serialization guards intentionally span awaited
setup or execution, so using a semaphore communicates "one at a time"
without holding a mutex guard.
- **Remove the mutex when there is only one owner.** The PTY stdin
writer task owns `stdin` directly; the old `Arc<Mutex<_>>` did not
protect shared access because nothing else had access to the writer.
- **Do not split locks that protect an atomic invariant.** This PR
deliberately leaves active-turn/turn-state paths alone because those
checks and mutations need to stay atomic. Those cases should be fixed
separately with a design change or documented with `#[expect]`.
## What changed
- Narrow scoped async mutex guards in app-server, JS REPL, network
approval, remote-control websocket, and the RMCP test server.
- Replace test-only async mutex serialization guards with semaphores
where the guard intentionally lives across async work.
- Let the PTY pipe writer task own stdin directly instead of wrapping it
in an async mutex.
## Verification
- `just fix -p codex-core -p codex-app-server -p codex-rmcp-client -p
codex-shell-escalation -p codex-utils-pty -p codex-utils-readiness`
- `just clippy -p codex-core`
- `cargo test -p codex-core -p codex-app-server -p codex-rmcp-client -p
codex-shell-escalation -p codex-utils-pty -p codex-utils-readiness` was
run; the app-server suite passed, and `codex-core` failed in the local
sandbox on six otel approval tests plus
`suite::user_shell_cmd::user_shell_command_does_not_set_network_sandbox_env_var`,
which appear to depend on local command approval/default rules and
`CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED=1` in this environment.
## Why
`codex-utils-pty` and `codex-windows-sandbox` were the remaining crates
in `codex-rs` that still overrode the workspace's Rust 2024 edition.
Moving them forward in a separate PR keeps the baseline edition update
isolated from the follow-on Bazel clippy workflow in #15955, while
making linting and formatting behavior consistent with the rest of the
workspace.
This PR also needs Cargo and Bazel to agree on the edition for
`codex-windows-sandbox`. Without the Bazel-side sync, the experimental
Bazel app-server builds fail once they compile `windows-sandbox-rs`.
## What changed
- switch `codex-rs/utils/pty` and `codex-rs/windows-sandbox-rs` to
`edition = "2024"`
- update `codex-utils-pty` callsites and tests to use the collapsed `if
let` form that Clippy expects under the new edition
- fix the Rust 2024 fallout in `windows-sandbox-rs`, including the
reserved `gen` identifier, `unsafe extern` requirements, and new Clippy
findings that surfaced under the edition bump
- keep the edition bump separate from a larger unsafe cleanup by
temporarily allowing `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn` in the Windows entrypoint
modules that now report it under Rust 2024
- update `codex-rs/windows-sandbox-rs/BUILD.bazel` to `crate_edition =
"2024"` so Bazel compiles the crate with the same edition as Cargo

## Why
Once the repo-local lint exists, `codex-rs` needs to follow the
checked-in convention and CI needs to keep it from drifting. This commit
applies the fallback `/*param*/` style consistently across existing
positional literal call sites without changing those APIs.
The longer-term preference is still to avoid APIs that require comments
by choosing clearer parameter types and call shapes. This PR is
intentionally the mechanical follow-through for the places where the
existing signatures stay in place.
After rebasing onto newer `main`, the rollout also had to cover newly
introduced `tui_app_server` call sites. That made it clear the first cut
of the CI job was too expensive for the common path: it was spending
almost as much time installing `cargo-dylint` and re-testing the lint
crate as a representative test job spends running product tests. The CI
update keeps the full workspace enforcement but trims that extra
overhead from ordinary `codex-rs` PRs.
## What changed
- keep a dedicated `argument_comment_lint` job in `rust-ci`
- mechanically annotate remaining opaque positional literals across
`codex-rs` with exact `/*param*/` comments, including the rebased
`tui_app_server` call sites that now fall under the lint
- keep the checked-in style aligned with the lint policy by using
`/*param*/` and leaving string and char literals uncommented
- cache `cargo-dylint`, `dylint-link`, and the relevant Cargo
registry/git metadata in the lint job
- split changed-path detection so the lint crate's own `cargo test` step
runs only when `tools/argument-comment-lint/*` or `rust-ci.yml` changes
- continue to run the repo wrapper over the `codex-rs` workspace, so
product-code enforcement is unchanged
Most of the code changes in this commit are intentionally mechanical
comment rewrites or insertions driven by the lint itself.
## Verification
- `./tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh --workspace`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui-app-server -p codex-tui`
- parsed `.github/workflows/rust-ci.yml` locally with PyYAML

* #14651
## Why
`zsh-fork` sessions launched through unified-exec need the escalation
socket to survive the wrapper -> server -> child handoff so later
intercepted `exec()` calls can still reach the escalation server.
The inherited-fd spawn path also needs to avoid closing Rust's internal
exec-error pipe, and the shell-escalation handoff needs to tolerate the
receive-side case where a transferred fd is installed into the same
stdio slot it will be mapped onto.
## What Changed
- Added `SpawnLifecycle::inherited_fds()` in
`codex-rs/core/src/unified_exec/process.rs` and threaded inherited fds
through `codex-rs/core/src/unified_exec/process_manager.rs` so
unified-exec can preserve required descriptors across both PTY and
no-stdin pipe spawn paths.
- Updated `codex-rs/core/src/tools/runtimes/shell/zsh_fork_backend.rs`
to expose the escalation socket fd through the spawn lifecycle.
- Added inherited-fd-aware spawn helpers in
`codex-rs/utils/pty/src/pty.rs` and `codex-rs/utils/pty/src/pipe.rs`,
including Unix pre-exec fd pruning that preserves requested inherited
fds while leaving `FD_CLOEXEC` descriptors alone. The pruning helper is
now named `close_inherited_fds_except()` to better describe that
behavior.
- Updated `codex-rs/shell-escalation/src/unix/escalate_client.rs` to
duplicate local stdio before transfer and send destination stdio numbers
in `SuperExecMessage`, so the wrapper keeps using its own
`stdin`/`stdout`/`stderr` until the escalated child takes over.
- Updated `codex-rs/shell-escalation/src/unix/escalate_server.rs` so the
server accepts the overlap case where a received fd reuses the same
stdio descriptor number that the child setup will target with `dup2`.
- Added comments around the PTY stdio wiring and the overlap regression
helper to make the fd handoff and controlling-terminal setup easier to
follow.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-utils-pty`
- covers preserved-fd PTY spawn behavior, PTY resize, Python REPL
continuity, exec-failure reporting, and the no-stdin pipe path
- `cargo test -p codex-shell-escalation`
- covers duplicated-fd transfer on the client side and verifies the
overlap case by passing a pipe-backed stdin payload through the
server-side `dup2` path
