## Why
The zsh release workflow currently publishes macOS arm64 and Linux zsh
fork artifacts, but no macOS x64 artifact. The Codex package builder
therefore cannot include codex-resources/zsh/bin/zsh for
x86_64-apple-darwin packages.
## What Changed
- Added an x86_64-apple-darwin row to the macOS zsh release matrix.
- Runs that row on macos-15-large, the Intel macOS runner appropriate
for the native zsh build.
- Added the matching macos-x86_64 platform to the zsh DotSlash publish
config so the generated release manifest can reference the new tarball.
This does two things:
- We use `persist-credentials: false` everywhere now. This is
unfortunately not the default in GitHub Actions, but it prevents
`actions/checkout` from dropping `secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN` onto disk.
- We interpose (some) template expansions through environment variables.
I've limited this to contexts that have non-fixed values; contexts that
are fixed (like `*.result`) are not dangerous to expand directly inline
(but maybe we should clean those up in the future for consistency
anyways).
This is a medium-risk change in terms of CI breakage: I did a scan for
usage of `git push` and other commands that implicitly use the persisted
credential, but couldn't find any. Even still, some implicit usages of
the persisted credentials may be lurking. Please ping ww@ if any issues
arise.
This builds on top of https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/15828 by
ensuring that hash-pinned actions with version comments are fully
qualified, rather than referencing floating/mutable comments like "v7".
This makes actions management tools behave more consistently.
This shouldn't break anything, since it's comment only. But if it does,
ping ww@ 馃檪
## Why
`shell-tool-mcp` and the Bash fork are no longer needed, but the patched
zsh fork is still relevant for shell escalation and for the
DotSlash-backed zsh-fork integration tests.
Deleting the old `shell-tool-mcp` workflow also deleted the only
pipeline that rebuilt those patched zsh binaries. This keeps the package
removal, while preserving a small release path that can be reused
whenever `codex-rs/shell-escalation/patches/zsh-exec-wrapper.patch`
changes.
## What changed
- removed the `shell-tool-mcp` workspace package, its npm
packaging/release jobs, the Bash test fixture, and the remaining
Bash-specific compatibility wiring
- deleted the old `.github/workflows/shell-tool-mcp.yml` and
`.github/workflows/shell-tool-mcp-ci.yml` workflows now that their
responsibilities have been replaced or removed
- kept the zsh patch under
`codex-rs/shell-escalation/patches/zsh-exec-wrapper.patch` and updated
the `codex-rs/shell-escalation` docs/code to describe the zsh-based flow
directly
- added `.github/workflows/rust-release-zsh.yml` to build only the three
zsh binaries that `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/zsh` needs today:
- `aarch64-apple-darwin` on `macos-15`
- `x86_64-unknown-linux-musl` on `ubuntu-24.04`
- `aarch64-unknown-linux-musl` on `ubuntu-24.04`
- extracted the shared zsh build/smoke-test/stage logic into
`.github/scripts/build-zsh-release-artifact.sh`, made that helper
directly executable, and now invoke it directly from the workflow so the
Linux and macOS jobs only keep the OS-specific setup in YAML
- wired those standalone `codex-zsh-*.tar.gz` assets into
`rust-release.yml` and added `.github/dotslash-zsh-config.json` so
releases also publish a `codex-zsh` DotSlash file
- updated the checked-in `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/zsh` fixture
comments to explain that new releases come from the standalone zsh
assets, while the checked-in fixture remains pinned to the latest
historical release until a newer zsh artifact is published
- tightened a couple of follow-on cleanups in
`codex-rs/shell-escalation`: the `ExecParams::command` comment now
describes the shell `-c`/`-lc` string more clearly, and the README now
points at the same `git.code.sf.net` zsh source URL that the workflow
uses
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-shell-escalation`
- `just argument-comment-lint`
- `bash -n .github/scripts/build-zsh-release-artifact.sh`
- attempted `cargo test -p codex-core`; unrelated existing failures
remain, but the touched `tools::runtimes::shell::unix_escalation::*`
coverage passed during that run
