• feat: do not close unified exec processes across turns (#10799)

  With this PR we do not close the unified exec processes (i.e. background
  terminals) at the end of a turn unless:
  * The user interrupt the turn
  * The user decide to clean the processes through `app-server` or
  `/clean`
  
  I made sure that `codex exec` correctly kill all the processes

• tui: avoid no-op status-line redraws (#11155)

  Rate-limit snapshots are polled every 60s, which causes unconditional
  redraws.
  This causes spurious "tab changed" indicators in terminal apps.

• [apps] Improve app loading. (#10994)

  There are two concepts of apps that we load in the harness:
  
  - Directory apps, which is all the apps that the user can install.
  - Accessible apps, which is what the user actually installed and can be
  $ inserted and be used by the model. These are extracted from the tools
  that are loaded through the gateway MCP.
  
  Previously we wait for both sets of apps before returning the full apps
  list. Which causes many issues because accessible apps won't be
  available to the UI or the model if directory apps aren't loaded or
  failed to load.
  
  In this PR we are separating them so that accessible apps can be loaded
  separately and are instantly available to be shown in the UI and to be
  provided in model context. We also added an app-server event so that
  clients can subscribe to also get accessible apps without being blocked
  on the full app list.
  
  - [x] Separate accessible apps and directory apps loading.
  - [x] `app/list` request will also emit `app/list/updated` notifications
  that app-server clients can subscribe. Which allows clients to get
  accessible apps list to render in the $ menu without being blocked by
  directory apps.
  - [x] Cache both accessible and directory apps with 1 hour TTL to avoid
  reloading them when creating new threads.
  - [x] TUI improvements to redraw $ menu and /apps menu when app list is
  updated.

• Defer persistence of rollout file (#11028)

  - Defer rollout persistence for fresh threads (`InitialHistory::New`):
  keep rollout events in memory and only materialize rollout file + state
  DB row on first `EventMsg::UserMessage`.
  - Keep precomputed rollout path available before materialization.
  - Change `thread/start` to build thread response from live config
  snapshot and optional precomputed path.
  - Improve pre-materialization behavior in app-server/TUI: clearer
  invalid-request errors for file-backed ops and a friendlier `/fork` “not
  ready yet” UX.
  - Update tests to match deferred semantics across
  start/read/archive/unarchive/fork/resume/review flows.
  - Improved resilience of user_shell test, which should be unrelated to
  this change but must be affected by timing changes
  
  For Reviewers:
  * The primary change is in recorder.rs
  * Most of the other changes were to fix up broken assumptions in
  existing tests
  
  Testing:
  * Manually tested CLI
  * Exercised app server paths by manually running IDE Extension with
  rebuilt CLI binary
  * Only user-visible change is that `/fork` in TUI generates visible
  error if used prior to first turn

• fix(tui): rehydrate drafts and restore image placeholders (#9040)

  Fixes #9050
  
  When a draft is stashed with Ctrl+C, we now persist the full draft state
  (text elements, local image paths, and pending paste payloads) in local
  history. Up/Down recall rehydrates placeholder elements and attachments
  so styling remains correct and large pastes still expand on submit.
  Persistent (cross‑session) history remains text‑only.
  
  Backtrack prefills now reuse the selected user message’s text elements
  and local image paths, so image placeholders/attachments rehydrate when
  rolling back.
  
  External editor replacements keep only attachments whose placeholders
  remain and then normalize image placeholders to `[Image #1]..[Image #N]`
  to keep the attachment mapping consistent.
  
  Docs:
  - docs/tui-chat-composer.md
  
  Testing:
  - just fix -p codex-tui
  - cargo test -p codex-tui

• feat: include state of [experimental_network] in /debug-config output (#11039)

  #10958 introduced experimental support for a network config in
  `/etc/codex/requirements.toml`, so this extends `/debug-config` to
  surface this information, if set, which should make it easier to debug.

• Do not poll for usage when using API Key auth (#10973)

  Fixes #10869
  
  - Gate TUI rate-limit polling on ChatGPT-auth providers only.
  - `prefetch_rate_limits()` now checks `should_prefetch_rate_limits()`.
  - New gate requires:
    - `config.model_provider.requires_openai_auth`
    - cached auth is ChatGPT (`CodexAuth::is_chatgpt_auth`)
  - Prevents `/wham/usage` polling in API/custom-endpoint profiles.

• feat: add support for allowed_web_search_modes in requirements.toml (#10964)

  This PR makes it possible to disable live web search via an enterprise
  config even if the user is running in `--yolo` mode (though cached web
  search will still be available). To do this, create
  `/etc/codex/requirements.toml` as follows:
  
  ```toml
  # "live" is not allowed; "disabled" is allowed even though not listed explicitly.
  allowed_web_search_modes = ["cached"]
  ```
  
  Or set `requirements_toml_base64` MDM as explained on
  https://developers.openai.com/codex/security/#locations.
  
  ### Why
  - Enforce admin/MDM/`requirements.toml` constraints on web-search
  behavior, independent of user config and per-turn sandbox defaults.
  - Ensure per-turn config resolution and review-mode overrides never
  crash when constraints are present.
  
  ### What
  - Add `allowed_web_search_modes` to requirements parsing and surface it
  in app-server v2 `ConfigRequirements` (`allowedWebSearchModes`), with
  fixtures updated.
  - Define a requirements allowlist type (`WebSearchModeRequirement`) and
  normalize semantics:
    - `disabled` is always implicitly allowed (even if not listed).
    - An empty list is treated as `["disabled"]`.
  - Make `Config.web_search_mode` a `Constrained<WebSearchMode>` and apply
  requirements via `ConstrainedWithSource<WebSearchMode>`.
  - Update per-turn resolution (`resolve_web_search_mode_for_turn`) to:
  - Prefer `Live → Cached → Disabled` when
  `SandboxPolicy::DangerFullAccess` is active (subject to requirements),
  unless the user preference is explicitly `Disabled`.
  - Otherwise, honor the user’s preferred mode, falling back to an allowed
  mode when necessary.
  - Update TUI `/debug-config` and app-server mapping to display
  normalized `allowed_web_search_modes` (including implicit `disabled`).
  - Fix web-search integration tests to assert cached behavior under
  `SandboxPolicy::ReadOnly` (since `DangerFullAccess` legitimately prefers
  `live` when allowed).

• fix(tui): conditionally restore status indicator using message phase (#10947)

  TLDR: use new message phase field emitted by preamble-supported models
  to determine whether an AgentMessage is mid-turn commentary. if so,
  restore the status indicator afterwards to indicate the turn has not
  completed.
  
  ### Problem
  `commit_tick` hides the status indicator while streaming assistant text.
  For preamble-capable models, that text can be commentary mid-turn, so
  hiding was correct during streaming but restore timing mattered:
  - restoring too aggressively caused jitter/flashing
  - not restoring caused indicator to stay hidden before subsequent work
  (tool calls, web search, etc.)
  
  ### Fix
  - Add optional `phase` to `AgentMessageItem` and propagate it from
  `ResponseItem::Message`
  - Keep indicator hidden during streamed commit ticks, restore only when:
    - assistant item completes as `phase=commentary`, and
    - stream queues are idle + task is still running.
  - Treat `phase=None` as final-answer behavior (no restore) to keep
  existing behavior for non-preamble models
  
  ### Tests
  Add/update tests for:
  - no idle-tick restore without commentary completion
  - commentary completion restoring status before tool begin
  - snapshot coverage for preamble/status behavior

• TUI/Core: preserve duplicate skill/app mention selection across submit + resume (#10855)

  ## What changed
  
  - In `codex-rs/core/src/skills/injection.rs`, we now honor explicit
  `UserInput::Skill { name, path }` first, then fall back to text mentions
  only when safe.
  - In `codex-rs/tui/src/bottom_pane/chat_composer.rs`, mention selection
  is now token-bound (selected mention is tied to the specific inserted
  `$token`), and we snapshot bindings at submit time so selection is not
  lost.
  - In `codex-rs/tui/src/chatwidget.rs` and
  `codex-rs/tui/src/bottom_pane/mod.rs`, submit/queue paths now consume
  the submit-time mention snapshot (instead of rereading cleared composer
  state).
  - In `codex-rs/tui/src/mention_codec.rs` and
  `codex-rs/tui/src/bottom_pane/chat_composer_history.rs`, history now
  round-trips mention targets so resume restores the same selected
  duplicate.
  - In `codex-rs/tui/src/bottom_pane/skill_popup.rs` and
  `codex-rs/tui/src/bottom_pane/chat_composer.rs`, duplicate labels are
  normalized to `[Repo]` / `[App]`, app rows no longer show `Connected -`,
  and description space is a bit wider.

  />
  
  
  ## Before vs now
  
  - Before: selecting a duplicate could still submit the default/repo
  match, and resume could lose which duplicate was originally selected.
  - Now: the exact selected target (skill path or app id) is preserved
  through submit, queue/restore, and resume.
  
  ## Manual test
  
  1. Build and run this branch locally:
     - `cd /Users/daniels/code/codex/codex-rs`
     - `cargo build -p codex-cli --bin codex`
     - `./target/debug/codex`
  2. Open mention picker with `$` and pick a duplicate entry (not the
  first one).
  3. Confirm duplicate UI:
     - repo duplicate rows show `[Repo]`
     - app duplicate rows show `[App]`
     - app description does **not** start with `Connected -`
  4. Submit the prompt, then press Up to restore draft and submit again.  
     Expected: it keeps the same selected duplicate target.
  5. Use `/resume` to reopen the session and send again.  
  Expected: restored mention still resolves to the same duplicate target.

• Queue nudges while plan generating (#10457)

  ## Summary
  
  This PR fixes a UI/streaming race when nudged or steer-enabled messages
  are queued during an active Plan stream.
  
  Previously, `submit_user_message_with_mode` switched collaboration mode
  immediately (via `set_collaboration_mask`) even when the message was
  queued. If that happened mid-Plan stream, `active_mode_kind` could flip
  away from Plan before the turn finished, causing subsequent
  `on_plan_delta` updates to be ignored in the UI.
  
  Now, mode switching is deferred until the queued message is actually
  submitted.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Added a per-message deferred mode override on `UserMessage`:
    - `collaboration_mode_override: Option<CollaborationModeMask>`
  - Updated `submit_user_message_with_mode` to:
    - create a `UserMessage` carrying the mode override
  - queue or submit that message without mutating global mode immediately
  - Updated `submit_user_message` to:
  - apply `collaboration_mode_override` just before constructing/sending
  `Op::UserTurn`
  - Kept queueing condition scoped to active Plan stream rendering:
  - queue only while plan output is actively streaming in TUI
  (`plan_stream_controller.is_some()`)
  
  ## Why
  
  This preserves Plan mode for the remainder of the in-flight Plan turn,
  so streamed plan deltas continue rendering correctly, while still
  ensuring the follow-up queued message is sent with the intended
  collaboration mode.
  
  ## Behavior after this change
  
  - If a nudged/steer submission happens while Plan output is actively
  streaming:
    - message is queued
    - UI stays in Plan mode for the running turn
  - once dequeued/submitted, mode override is applied and the message is
  sent in the intended mode
  - If no Plan stream is active:
  - submission proceeds immediately and mode override is applied as before
  
  ## Tests
  
  Added/updated coverage in `tui/src/chatwidget/tests.rs`:
  
  - `submit_user_message_with_mode_queues_while_plan_stream_is_active`
    - asserts mode remains Plan while queued
  - asserts mode switches to Code when queued message is actually
  submitted
  - `submit_user_message_with_mode_submits_when_plan_stream_is_not_active`
  - `steer_enter_queues_while_plan_stream_is_active`
  - `steer_enter_submits_when_plan_stream_is_not_active`
  
  Also updated existing `UserMessage { ... }` test fixtures to include the
  new field.

  to ensure our version check agrees with the upgrade command.

• fix(tui): restore working shimmer after preamble output (#10701)

  ## Problem
  When a turn streamed a preamble line before any tool activity,
  `ChatWidget` hid the status row while committing streamed lines and did
  not restore it until a later event (commonly `ExecCommandBegin`). During
  that idle gap, the UI looked finished even though the turn was still
  active.
  
  ## Mental model
  The bottom status row and transcript stream are separate progress
  affordances:
  - transcript stream shows committed output
  - status row (spinner/shimmer + header) shows liveness of an active turn
  
  While stream output is actively committing, hiding the status row is
  acceptable to avoid redundant visual noise. Once stream controllers go
  idle, an active turn must restore the status row immediately so liveness
  remains visible across preamble-to-tool gaps.
  
  ## Non-goals
  - No changes to streaming chunking policy or pacing.
  - No changes to final completion behavior (status still hides when task
  actually ends).
  - No refactor of status lifecycle ownership between `ChatWidget` and
  `BottomPane`.
  
  ## Tradeoffs
  - We keep the existing behavior of hiding the status row during active
  stream commits.
  - We add explicit restoration on the idle boundary when the task is
  still running.
  - This introduces one extra status update on idle transitions, which is
  small overhead but makes liveness semantics consistent.
  
  ## Architecture
  `run_commit_tick_with_scope` in `chatwidget.rs` now documents and
  enforces a two-phase contract:
  1. For each committed streamed cell, hide status and append transcript
  output.
  2. If controllers are present and all idle, restore status iff task is
  still running, preserving the current header.
  
  This keeps status ownership in `ChatWidget` while relying on
  `BottomPane` helpers:
  - `hide_status_indicator()` during active stream commits
  - `ensure_status_indicator()` +
  `set_status_header(current_status_header)` at stream-idle boundary
  
  Documentation pass additions:
  - Clarified the function-level contract and lifecycle intent in
  `run_commit_tick_with_scope`.
  - Added an explicit regression snapshot test comment describing the
  failing sequence.
  
  ## Observability
  Signal that the fix is present:
  - In the preamble-idle state, rendered output still includes `• Working
  (… esc to interrupt)`.
  - New snapshot:
  `codex_tui__chatwidget__tests__preamble_keeps_working_status.snap`.
  
  Debug path for future regressions:
  - Start at `run_commit_tick_with_scope` for hide/restore transitions.
  - Verify `bottom_pane.is_task_running()` at idle transition.
  - Confirm `current_status_header` continuity when status is recreated.
  - Use the new snapshot and targeted test sequence to reproduce
  deterministic preamble-idle behavior.
  
  ## Tests
  - Updated regression assertion:
  - `streaming_final_answer_keeps_task_running_state` now expects status
  widget to remain present while turn is running.
  - Renamed/updated behavioral regression:
    - `preamble_keeps_status_indicator_visible_until_exec_begin`.
  - Added snapshot regression coverage:
    - `preamble_keeps_working_status_snapshot`.
  - Snapshot file:
  `tui/src/chatwidget/snapshots/codex_tui__chatwidget__tests__preamble_keeps_working_status.snap`.
  
  Commands run:
  - `just fmt`
  - `cargo test -p codex-tui
  preamble_keeps_status_indicator_visible_until_exec_begin`
  - `cargo test -p codex-tui preamble_keeps_working_status_snapshot`
  
  ## Risks / Inconsistencies
  - Status visibility policy is still split across multiple event paths
  (`commit tick`, `turn complete`, `exec begin`), so future regressions
  can reintroduce ordering gaps.
  - Restoration depends on `is_task_running()` correctness; if task
  lifecycle flags drift, status behavior will drift too.
  - Snapshot proves rendered state, not animation cadence; cadence still
  relies on frame scheduling behavior elsewhere.

• Fix jitter in TUI apps/connectors picker (#10593)

  This PR fixes jitter in the TUI apps menu by making the description
  column stable during rendering and height measurement.
  Added a `stable_desc_col` option to
  `SelectionViewParams`/`ListSelectionView`, introduced stable variants of
  the shared row render/measure helpers in `selection_popup_common`, and
  enabled the stable mode for the apps/connectors picker in `chatwidget`.
  With these changes, only the apps/connectors picker uses this new
  option, though it could be used elsewhere in the future.
  
  Why: previously, the description column was computed from only currently
  visible rows, so as you scrolled or filtered, the column could shift and
  cause wrapping/height changes that looked jumpy. Computing it from all
  rows in this popup keeps alignment and layout consistent as users scroll
  through avaialble apps.

• tui: make Esc clear request_user_input notes while notes are shown (#10569)

  ## Summary
  
  This PR updates the `request_user_input` TUI overlay so `Esc` is
  context-aware:
  
  - When notes are visible for an option question, `Esc` now clears notes
  and exits notes mode.
  - When notes are not visible (normal option selection UI), `Esc` still
  interrupts as before.
  
  It also updates footer guidance text to match behavior.
  
  ## Changes
  
  - Added a shared notes-clear path for option questions:
  - `Tab` and `Esc` now both clear notes and return focus to options when
  notes are visible.
  - Updated footer hint text in notes-visible state:
    - from: `tab to clear notes | ... | esc to interrupt`
    - to: `tab or esc to clear notes | ...`
  - Hid `esc to interrupt` hint while notes are visible for option
  questions.
  - Kept `esc to interrupt` visible and functional in normal
  option-selection mode.
  - Updated tests to assert the new `Esc` behavior in notes mode.
  - Updated snapshot output for the notes-visible footer row.
  - Updated docs in `docs/tui-request-user-input.md` to reflect
  mode-specific `Esc` behavior.

• Cleanup collaboration mode variants (#10404)

  ## Summary
  
  This PR simplifies collaboration modes to the visible set `default |
  plan`, while preserving backward compatibility for older partners that
  may still send legacy mode
  names.
  
  Specifically:
  - Renames the old Code behavior to **Default**.
  - Keeps **Plan** as-is.
  - Removes **Custom** mode behavior (fallbacks now resolve to Default).
  - Keeps `PairProgramming` and `Execute` internally for compatibility
  plumbing, while removing them from schema/API and UI visibility.
  - Adds legacy input aliasing so older clients can still send old mode
  names.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  1. Mode enum and compatibility
  - `ModeKind` now uses `Plan` + `Default` as active/public modes.
  - `ModeKind::Default` deserialization accepts legacy values:
    - `code`
    - `pair_programming`
    - `execute`
    - `custom`
  - `PairProgramming` and `Execute` variants remain in code but are hidden
  from protocol/schema generation.
  - `Custom` variant is removed; previous custom fallbacks now map to
  `Default`.
  
  2. Collaboration presets and templates
  - Built-in presets now return only:
    - `Plan`
    - `Default`
  - Template rename:
    - `core/templates/collaboration_mode/code.md` -> `default.md`
  - `execute.md` and `pair_programming.md` remain on disk but are not
  surfaced in visible preset lists.
  
  3. TUI updates
  - Updated user-facing naming and prompts from “Code” to “Default”.
  - Updated mode-cycle and indicator behavior to reflect only visible
  `Plan` and `Default`.
  - Updated corresponding tests and snapshots.
  
  4. request_user_input behavior
  - `request_user_input` remains allowed only in `Plan` mode.
  - Rejection messaging now consistently treats non-plan modes as
  `Default`.
  
  5. Schemas
  - Regenerated config and app-server schemas.
  - Public schema types now advertise mode values as:
    - `plan`
    - `default`
  
  ## Backward Compatibility Notes
  
  - Incoming legacy mode names (`code`, `pair_programming`, `execute`,
  `custom`) are accepted and coerced to `default`.
  - Outgoing/public schema surfaces intentionally expose only `plan |
  default`.
  - This allows tolerant ingestion of older partner payloads while
  standardizing new integrations on the reduced mode set.

• [Codex][CLI] Gate image inputs by model modalities (#10271)

  ###### Summary
  
  - Add input_modalities to model metadata so clients can determine
  supported input types.
  - Gate image paste/attach in TUI when the selected model does not
  support images.
  - Block submits that include images for unsupported models and show a
  clear warning.
  - Propagate modality metadata through app-server protocol/model-list
  responses.
    - Update related tests/fixtures.
  
    ###### Rationale
  
    - Models support different input modalities.
  - Clients need an explicit capability signal to prevent unsupported
  requests.
  - Backward-compatible defaults preserve existing behavior when modality
  metadata is absent.
  
    ###### Scope
  
    - codex-rs/protocol, codex-rs/core, codex-rs/tui
    - codex-rs/app-server-protocol, codex-rs/app-server
    - Generated app-server types / schema fixtures
  
    ###### Trade-offs
  
  - Default behavior assumes text + image when field is absent for
  compatibility.
    - Server-side validation remains the source of truth.
  
    ###### Follow-up
  
  - Non-TUI clients should consume input_modalities to disable unsupported
  attachments.
  - Model catalogs should explicitly set input_modalities for text-only
  models.
  
    ###### Testing
  
    - cargo fmt --all
    - cargo test -p codex-tui
    - env -u GITHUB_APP_KEY cargo test -p codex-core --lib
    - just write-app-server-schema
  - cargo run -p codex-cli --bin codex -- app-server generate-ts --out
  app-server-types
    - test against local backend
