## Summary
- Add an explicit stdin mode to process/start.
- Keep normal non-interactive exec stdin closed while allowing
pipe-backed processes.

## Summary
- add an exec-server `envPolicy` field; when present, the server starts
from its own process env and applies the shell environment policy there
- keep `env` as the exact environment for local/embedded starts, but
make it an overlay for remote unified-exec starts
- move the shell-environment-policy builder into `codex-config` so Core
and exec-server share the inherit/filter/set/include behavior
- overlay only runtime/sandbox/network deltas from Core onto the
exec-server-derived env
## Why
Remote unified exec was materializing the shell env inside Core and
forwarding the whole map to exec-server, so remote processes could
inherit the orchestrator machine's `HOME`, `PATH`, etc. This keeps the
base env on the executor while preserving Core-owned runtime additions
like `CODEX_THREAD_ID`, unified-exec defaults, network proxy env, and
sandbox marker env.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
- `cargo test -p codex-exec-server --lib`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib unified_exec::process_manager::tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib exec_env::tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib exec_env_tests` (compile-only; filter
matched 0 tests)
- `cargo test -p codex-config --lib shell_environment` (compile-only;
filter matched 0 tests)
- `just bazel-lock-update`
## Known local validation issue
- `just bazel-lock-check` is not runnable in this checkout: it invokes
`./scripts/check-module-bazel-lock.sh`, which is missing.

Problem: The Windows exec-server test command could let separator
whitespace become part of `echo` output, making the exact
retained-output assertion flaky.
Solution: Tighten the Windows `cmd.exe` command by placing command
separators directly after the echoed tokens so stdout remains
deterministic while preserving the exact assertion.
This introduces session-scoped ownership for exec-server so ws
disconnects no longer immediately kill running remote exec processes,
and it prepares the protocol for reconnect-based resume.
- add session_id / resume_session_id to the exec-server initialize
handshake
- move process ownership under a shared session registry
- detach sessions on websocket disconnect and expire them after a TTL
instead of killing processes immediately (we will resume based on this)
- allow a new connection to resume an existing session and take over
notifications/ownership
- I use UUID to make them not predictable as we don't have auth for now
- make detached-session expiry authoritative at resume time so teardown
wins at the TTL boundary
- reject long-poll process/read calls that get resumed out from under an
older attachment
