jifandGitHub 5f4d06ef18 Encrypt multi-agent v2 message payloads (#26210)
## Why

Multi-agent v2 currently routes agent instructions through normal tool
arguments and inter-agent context. That means the parent model can emit
plaintext task text, Codex can persist it in history/rollouts, and the
recipient can receive it as ordinary assistant-message JSON.

This changes the v2 path so agent instructions stay encrypted between
model calls: Responses encrypts the `message` argument returned by the
model, Codex forwards only that ciphertext, and Responses decrypts it
internally for the recipient model.

## What changed

- Mark the v2 `message` parameter as encrypted for `spawn_agent`,
`send_message`, and `followup_task`.
- Treat multi-agent v2 tool `message` values as ciphertext
unconditionally.
- Store v2 inter-agent task text in
`InterAgentCommunication.encrypted_content` with empty plaintext
`content`.
- Convert encrypted inter-agent communications into the Responses
`agent_message` input item before sending the child request.
- Preserve `agent_message` items across history, rollout, compaction,
telemetry, and app-server schema paths.
- Leave multi-agent v1 unchanged.

## Message shape

The model still calls the v2 tools with a `message` argument, but that
value is now ciphertext:

```json
{
  "name": "spawn_agent",
  "arguments": {
    "task_name": "worker",
    "message": "<ciphertext>"
  }
}
```

Codex stores the task as encrypted inter-agent communication:

```json
{
  "author": "/root",
  "recipient": "/root/worker",
  "content": "",
  "encrypted_content": "<ciphertext>",
  "trigger_turn": true
}
```

When Codex builds the recipient request, it forwards the ciphertext
using the new Responses input item:

```json
{
  "type": "agent_message",
  "author": "/root",
  "recipient": "/root/worker",
  "content": [
    {
      "type": "encrypted_content",
      "encrypted_content": "<ciphertext>"
    }
  ]
}
```

Responses decrypts that item internally for the recipient model.

## Context impact

- Parent context no longer carries plaintext v2 agent task instructions
from these tool arguments.
- Codex rollout/history stores ciphertext for v2 agent instructions.
- Recipient requests receive an `agent_message` item instead of
assistant commentary JSON for encrypted task delivery.
- Plaintext completion/status notifications are still plaintext because
they are Codex-generated status messages, not encrypted model tool
arguments.

Won ParkandGitHub 57ab4c89e0 Expose local image paths to models (#25944)
## Why

Local image attachments include image bytes, but the adjacent
model-visible label omits the source path. Exposing the path lets
model-selected workflows refer back to the intended local image
explicitly.

## What changed

- Include an escaped `path` attribute in model-visible local image
opening tags.
- Reuse the path-aware marker generator in rollout coverage.
- Update protocol, replay, and rollout coverage for the new request
shape.

## Validation

Michael BolinandGitHub 593df8773d core: derive built-in permission profiles from raw policies (#25739)
## Why

Permission profiles that extend a built-in profile should behave like
other TOML inheritance: parent entries provide defaults, and child keys
override matching fields before the profile is compiled.

That was not true for `:workspace`. Previously, a profile with `extends
= ":workspace"` seeded the compiled runtime
`PermissionProfile::workspace_write()` policy and then appended child
filesystem entries. A child override such as `":tmpdir" = "read"`
therefore left the inherited `":tmpdir" = "write"` entry in the final
policy. Since same-target `write` wins over `read` during runtime
resolution, the child override was ineffective.

This also needs a clear source of truth for the built-in profiles. The
protocol-level sandbox policy constructors now define the raw built-in
filesystem entries, and both `PermissionProfile` presets and
config-profile inheritance derive from those same values.

## What Changed

- Add a canonical `FileSystemSandboxPolicy::read_only()` constructor
while keeping the read-only and workspace-write raw filesystem entries
explicit and independent.
- Derive `PermissionProfile::read_only()` from
`FileSystemSandboxPolicy::read_only()`;
`PermissionProfile::workspace_write()` continues to derive from
`FileSystemSandboxPolicy::workspace_write()`.
- Build extensible `:read-only` and `:workspace` parent profiles by
projecting those canonical sandbox policies into
`PermissionProfileToml`, then merge user overrides at the TOML layer
before compilation.
- Add config parsing support for `:slash_tmp` so the built-in
`:workspace` parent can be expressed in the same TOML-shaped filesystem
table as user profiles.
- Document that `PermissionsToml::resolve_profile()` returns an
already-merged `PermissionProfileToml`, and return that profile directly
after removing the resolved-profile wrapper.
- Extend the config test for `extends = ":workspace"` to assert that
inherited `":slash_tmp" = "write"` is preserved and that a child
`":tmpdir" = "read"` entry replaces the inherited `write` entry.

Alexi ChristakisandGitHub e92c952b2e [codex] Add user input client ids (#24653)
## Summary

Adds an optional `clientId` field to app-server v2 `UserInput` and
carries it through the core `UserInput` model so clients can correlate
echoed user input items without relying on payload equality.

## Details

- Adds `client_id: Option<String>` to core `UserInput` variants.
- Exposes the v2 app-server field as `clientId` on the wire and in
generated TypeScript.
- Preserves the id when converting between app-server v2 and core
protocol types.
- Regenerates app-server schema fixtures.

rhan-oaiandGitHub dc4e54d061 Restore legacy image detail values (#24644)
## Why

Older persisted rollouts can contain `input_image.detail` values of
`auto` or `low` from before `ImageDetail` was narrowed to
`high`/`original`. Current deserialization rejects those values, which
can make resume skip later compacted checkpoints and reconstruct an
oversized raw suffix before the next compaction attempt.

Confirmed Sentry reports fixed by this compatibility path:

- [CODEX-1H3F](https://openai.sentry.io/issues/7500642496/)
- [CODEX-1H6N](https://openai.sentry.io/issues/7501025347/)
- [CODEX-1JDP](https://openai.sentry.io/issues/7504549065/)
- [CODEX-1HW6](https://openai.sentry.io/issues/7503407986/)

## Background

[openai/codex#20693](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/20693) added
image-detail plumbing for app-server `UserInput` so input images could
explicitly request `detail: original`. The Slack discussion behind that
PR was about ScreenSpot / bridge evals where user input images were
resized, while tool output images already had MCP/code-mode ways to
request image detail.

In review, the intended new API surface was narrowed to `high` and
`original`: default to `high`, allow `original` when callers need
unchanged image handling, and avoid encouraging new `auto` or `low`
usage. That policy still makes sense for newly emitted values.

The missing compatibility piece is persisted history. Older rollouts can
already contain `auto` and `low`, and resume reconstructs typed history
by deserializing those rollout records. Rejecting old values at that
boundary causes valid compacted checkpoints to be skipped. This PR
restores `auto` and `low` as real variants so old records deserialize
and round-trip without being rewritten as `high`, while product paths
can continue to default to `high` and avoid emitting `auto` for new
behavior.

## What changed

- Restored `ImageDetail::Auto` and `ImageDetail::Low` as first-class
protocol values.
- Preserved `auto`/`low` through rollout deserialization, MCP image
metadata, code-mode image output, and schema/type generation.
- Kept local image byte handling conservative: only `original` switches
to original-resolution loading; `auto`/`low`/`high` continue through the
resize-to-fit path while retaining their detail value.
- Added regression coverage for enum round-tripping and code-mode `low`
detail handling.

## Testing

- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `just test -p codex-protocol`
- `just test -p codex-tools`
- `just test -p codex-code-mode`
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol`

- `just test -p codex-core

- Loaded broken rollouts on local fixed builds, and started/completed
new turns.

I also attempted `just test -p codex-core`; the local broad run did not
finish green: 2559 tests run, 2467 passed, 55 flaky, 91 failed, 1 timed
out. The failures were broad timeout/deadline failures across unrelated
areas; targeted changed-path core tests above passed.

pakrym-oaiandGitHub 46391f7efa [codex] remove plain image wrapper spans (#24652)
## Why

Remote image submissions currently wrap native `input_image` spans in
literal `<image>` and `</image>` text spans. Those extra prompt tokens
add structure without providing label or routing information.

## What Changed

- Serialize `UserInput::Image` directly as an `input_image` content
span.
- Preserve named local-image framing and legacy wrapper parsing for
labeled attachments and existing histories.
- Update existing request-shape expectations for drag-and-drop images,
model switching, and compaction.

## Validation

- `just test -p codex-protocol`
- Focused `codex-core` run covering
`drag_drop_image_persists_rollout_request_shape`,
`model_change_from_image_to_text_strips_prior_image_content`, and
`snapshot_request_shape_pre_turn_compaction_including_incoming_user_message`

## Notes

- A broader `just test -p codex-core` run was attempted; the affected
tests passed, while the overall run failed in unrelated CLI, MCP, and
tooling tests plus a `thread_manager` timeout.

sayan-oaiandGitHub a22706dfae standalone websearch extension (#23823)
## Summary

Add the extension-backed standalone `web.run` tool so Codex can call the
standalone search endpoint through the `codex-api` search client and
return its encrypted output to Responses.

- gate the new tool behind `standalone_web_search`
- install the extension in the app-server thread registry and hide
hosted `web_search` when standalone search is enabled for OpenAI
providers so the two paths stay mutually exclusive
- build search context from persisted history using a small tail
heuristic: previous user message, assistant text between the last two
user turns capped at about 1k tokens, and current user message

## Test Plan

- `cargo test -p codex-web-search-extension`
- `cargo test -p codex-api`
- `cargo test -p codex-core

viyatb-oaiandGitHub fe7c069fe6 feat(permissions): resolve permission profile inheritance (#22270)
## Stack

This is the foundation PR for the permission-profile inheritance stack.

- This PR adds config-level `extends` resolution and merge semantics.
- Follow-up: #23705 applies resolved profiles at runtime and updates the
active-profile protocol surfaces.

## Why

Permission profiles are starting to carry enough policy that
copy-pasting near-identical definitions becomes hard to review and easy
to drift. Before the runtime can consume inherited profiles, the config
layer needs one explicit resolver that can merge parent chains and
reject unsafe or invalid inheritance shapes.

## What changed

- Add `extends` to permission-profile TOML and resolve parent chains in
inheritance order.
- Merge inherited profile TOML with the existing config merge behavior
while preserving the permission-specific normalization needed for
network domain keys.
- Keep parent descriptions out of resolved child profiles and record
inherited profile names separately for downstream consumers.
- Reject undefined parents, unsupported built-in parents, and
inheritance cycles with targeted errors.
- Cover resolver behavior with TOML fixture tests and refresh the
generated config schema.

## Validation

- `cargo test -p codex-config`

viyatb-oaiandGitHub 3c76081876 Make deny canonical for filesystem permission entries (#23493)
## Why
Filesystem permission profiles used `none` for deny-read entries, which
is less direct than the action the entry actually represents. This
change makes `deny` the canonical filesystem permission spelling while
preserving compatibility for older configs that still send `none`.

## What changed
- rename `FileSystemAccessMode::None` to `Deny`
- serialize and generate schemas with `deny` as the canonical value
- retain `none` only as a legacy input alias for temporary config
compatibility
- update filesystem glob diagnostics and regression coverage to use the
canonical spelling
- refresh config and app-server schema fixtures to match the new wire
shape

## Validation
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-core config_toml_deserializes_permission_profiles

- `cargo test -p codex-core

Earlier in the session, a broad `cargo test -p codex-core` run reached
unrelated pre-existing failures in timing/snapshot/git-info tests under
this environment; the targeted surfaces touched by this PR passed
cleanly.

Michael BolinandGitHub 9025550709 app-server-protocol: remove PermissionProfile from API (#22924)
## Why

The app server API should expose permission profile identity, not the
lower-level runtime permission model. `PermissionProfile` is the
compiled sandbox/network representation that the server uses internally;
exposing it through app-server-protocol forces clients to understand
details that should remain implementation-level.

The API boundary should prefer `ActivePermissionProfile`: a stable
profile id, plus future parent-profile metadata, that clients can pass
back when they want to select the same active permissions. This also
avoids schema generation collisions between the app-server v2 API type
space and the core protocol model.

Incidentally, while PR makes a number of changes to `command/exec`, note
that we are hoping to deprecate this API in favor of `process/spawn`, so
we don't need to be too finicky about these changes.

## What Changed

- Removed `PermissionProfile` from the app-server-protocol API surface,
including generated schema and TypeScript exports.
- Changed `CommandExecParams.permissionProfile` to
`ActivePermissionProfile`.
- Resolve command exec profile ids through `ConfigManager` for the
command cwd, matching turn override selection semantics.
- Updated downstream TUI tests/helpers to use core permission types
directly instead of app-server-protocol `PermissionProfile` shims.

Curtis 'Fjord' HawthorneandGitHub 8543e39885 Preserve image detail in app-server inputs (#20693)
## Summary

- Add optional image detail to user image inputs across core, app-server
v2, thread history/event mapping, and the generated app-server
schemas/types.
- Preserve requested detail when serializing Responses image inputs:
omitted detail stays on the existing `high` default, while explicit
`original` keeps local images on the original-resolution path.
- Support `high`/`original` consistently for tool image outputs,
including MCP `codex/imageDetail`, code-mode image helpers, and
`view_image`.

jif-oaiandGitHub 0322ac3df8 [codex] Use compaction_trigger item for remote compaction v2 (#22809)
## Why

Remote compaction v2 was still using `context_compaction` as both the
request trigger and the compacted output shape. The Responses API now
has the landed contract for this flow: Codex sends a dedicated `{
"type": "compaction_trigger" }` input item, and the backend returns the
standard `compaction` output item with encrypted content.

This aligns the v2 path with that wire contract while preserving the
existing local compacted-history post-processing behavior.

## What changed

- Add `ResponseItem::CompactionTrigger` and regenerate the app-server
protocol schema fixtures.
- Send `compaction_trigger` from `remote_compaction_v2` instead of a
payload-less `context_compaction`.
- Collect exactly one backend `compaction` output item, then reuse the
existing compacted-history rebuilding path.
- Treat the trigger item as a transient request marker rather than model
output or persisted rollout/memory content.

## Verification

Michael BolinandGitHub c25d905f61 permissions: support workspace roots in profiles (#22610)
## Why

This is the configuration/model half of the alternative permissions
migration we discussed as a comparison point for
[#22401](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22401) and
[#22402](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22402).

The old `workspace-write` model mixes three concerns that we want to
keep separate:
- reusable profile rules that should stay immutable once selected
- user/runtime workspace roots from `cwd`, `--add-dir`, and legacy
workspace-write config
- internal Codex writable roots such as memories, which should not be
shown as user workspace roots

This PR gives permission profiles first-class `workspace_roots` so users
can opt multiple repositories into the same `:workspace_roots` rules
without using broad absolute-path write grants. It also starts
separating the raw selected profile from the effective runtime profile
by making `Permissions` expose explicit accessors instead of public
mutable fields.

A representative `config.toml` looks like this:

```toml
default_permissions = "dev"

[permissions.dev.workspace_roots]
"~/code/openai" = true
"~/code/developers-website" = true

[permissions.dev.filesystem.":workspace_roots"]
"." = "write"
".codex" = "read"
".git" = "read"
".vscode" = "read"
```

If Codex starts in `~/code/codex` with that profile selected, the
effective workspace-root set becomes:
- `~/code/codex` from the runtime `cwd`
- `~/code/openai` from the profile
- `~/code/developers-website` from the profile

The `:workspace_roots` rules are materialized across each root, so
`.git`, `.codex`, and `.vscode` stay scoped the same way everywhere.
Runtime additions such as `--add-dir` can still layer on later stack
entries without mutating the selected profile.

## Stack Shape

This PR intentionally stops before the profile-identity cleanup in
[#22683](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22683) so the base review
stays focused on config loading, workspace-root materialization, and
compatibility with legacy `workspace-write`.

The representation in this PR is therefore transitional: `Permissions`
carries enough state to distinguish the raw constrained profile from the
effective runtime profile, and there are still call sites that must keep
the active profile identity and constrained profile value in sync. The
follow-up PR replaces that with a single resolved profile state
(`ResolvedPermissionProfile` / `PermissionProfileState`) that keeps the
profile id, immutable `PermissionProfile`, and profile-declared
workspace roots together. That follow-up removes APIs such as
`set_constrained_permission_profile_with_active_profile()` where
separate arguments could drift out of sync.

Downstream PRs then build on this base to switch app-server turn updates
to profile ids plus runtime workspace roots and to finish the
user-visible summary behavior. Reviewers should judge this PR as the
workspace-roots foundation, not as the final in-memory shape of selected
permission profiles.

## Review Guide

Suggested review order:

1. Start with `codex-rs/core/src/config/mod.rs`.
This is the main shape change in the base slice. `Permissions` now
stores a private raw `Constrained<PermissionProfile>` plus runtime
`workspace_roots`. Callers use `permission_profile()` when they need the
raw constrained value and `effective_permission_profile()` when they
need a materialized runtime profile. As noted above,
[#22683](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22683) replaces this
transitional shape with a resolved profile state that keeps identity and
profile data together.

2. Review `codex-rs/config/src/permissions_toml.rs` and
`codex-rs/core/src/config/permissions.rs`.
These add `[permissions.<id>.workspace_roots]`, resolve enabled entries
relative to the policy cwd, and keep `:workspace_roots` deny-read glob
patterns symbolic until the actual roots are known.

3. Review `codex-rs/protocol/src/permissions.rs` and
`codex-rs/protocol/src/models.rs`.
These add the policy/profile materialization helpers that expand exact
`:workspace_roots` entries and scoped deny-read globs over every
workspace root. This is also where `ActivePermissionProfileModification`
is removed from the core model.

4. Review the legacy bridge in
`Config::load_from_base_config_with_overrides` and
`Config::set_legacy_sandbox_policy`.
This is where legacy `workspace-write` roots become runtime workspace
roots, while Codex internal writable roots stay internal and do not
appear as user-facing workspace roots.

5. Then skim downstream call sites.
The interesting pattern is raw-vs-effective access: state/proxy/bwrap
paths keep the raw constrained profile, while execution, summaries, and
user-visible status use the effective profile and workspace-root list.

## What Changed

- added `[permissions.<id>.workspace_roots]` to the config model and
schema
- added runtime `workspace_roots` state to `Config`/`Permissions` and
`ConfigOverrides`
- made `Permissions` profile fields private and replaced direct mutation
with accessors/setters
- added `PermissionProfile` and `FileSystemSandboxPolicy` helpers for
materializing `:workspace_roots` exact paths and deny-read globs across
all roots
- moved legacy additional writable roots into runtime workspace-root
state instead of active profile modifications
- removed `ActivePermissionProfileModification` and its app-server
protocol/schema export
- updated sandbox/status summary paths so internal writable roots are
not reported as user workspace roots

## Verification Strategy

The targeted tests cover the behavior at the layers where regressions
are most likely:
- `codex-rs/core/src/config/config_tests.rs` verifies config loading,
legacy workspace-root seeding, effective profile materialization, and
memory-root handling.
- `codex-rs/core/src/config/permissions_tests.rs` verifies profile
`workspace_roots` parsing and `:workspace_roots` scoped/glob
compilation.
- `codex-rs/protocol/src/permissions.rs` unit tests verify exact and
glob materialization over multiple workspace roots.
- `codex-rs/tui/src/status/tests.rs` and
`codex-rs/utils/sandbox-summary/src/sandbox_summary.rs` verify the
user-facing summaries show effective workspace roots and hide internal
writes.

I also ran `cargo check --tests` locally after the latest stack refresh
to catch cross-crate API breakage from the private-field/accessor
changes.

Michael BolinandGitHub 01d93fd9fc permissions: canonicalize workspace_roots and danger-full-access names (#22624)
## Why

This is a small precursor to the larger permissions-migration work. Both
the comparison stack in
[#22401](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22401) /
[#22402](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22402) and the alternate
stack in [#22610](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22610) /
[#22611](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22611) /
[#22612](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22612) are easier to
review if the terminology is already settled underneath them.

Because `:project_roots` and `:danger-no-sandbox` have not shipped as
stable user-facing surface area, carrying them forward as aliases would
just add more migration logic to the later stacks. This PR removes that
ambiguity now so the follow-on work can rely on one spelling for each
built-in concept.

## What Changed

- renamed the config-facing special filesystem key from `:project_roots`
to `:workspace_roots`
- dropped unpublished `:project_roots` parsing support in
`core/src/config/permissions.rs`, so new config only recognizes
`:workspace_roots`
- renamed the built-in full-access permission profile id from
`:danger-no-sandbox` to `:danger-full-access`
- dropped unpublished `:danger-no-sandbox` support entirely, including
the old active-profile canonicalization path, and added explicit
rejection coverage for the legacy id
- introduced shared built-in permission-profile id constants in
`codex-rs/protocol/src/models.rs`
- updated `core`, `app-server`, and `tui` call sites that special-case
built-in profiles to use the shared constants and canonical ids
- updated tests and the Linux sandbox README to use `:workspace_roots` /
`:danger-full-access`

## Verification

I focused verification on the three places this rename can regress:
config parsing, active-profile identity surfaced back out of `core`, and
user/server call sites that special-case built-in profiles.

Targeted checks:

-
`config::tests::default_permissions_can_select_builtin_profile_without_permissions_table`
-

- `config::tests::legacy_danger_no_sandbox_is_rejected`
- `workspace_root` filtered `codex-core` tests
-

pakrym-oaiandGitHub 83decfa300 [codex] Remove unused legacy shell tools (#22246)
## Why

Recent session history showed no active use of the raw `shell`,
`local_shell`, or `container.exec` execution surfaces. Keeping those
handlers/specs wired into core leaves duplicate shell execution paths
alongside the supported `shell_command` and unified exec tools.

## What changed

- Removed the raw `shell` handler/spec and its `ShellToolCallParams`
protocol helper.
- Removed the legacy `local_shell` and `container.exec` handler/spec
plumbing while preserving persisted-history compatibility for old
response items.
- Normalized model/config `default` and `local` shell selections to
`shell_command`.
- Pruned tests that exercised removed raw-shell/local-shell/apply-patch
variants and kept coverage on `shell_command`, unified exec, and
freeform `apply_patch`.

## Verification

- `git diff --check`
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::handlers::shell`

d927f61208 feat: add remote compaction v2 Responses client path (#20773)
## Why

This adds the `remote_compaction_v2` client path so remote compaction
can run through the normal Responses stream and install a
`context_compaction` item that trigger a compaction.

The goal is to migrate some of the compaction logic on the client side

We keeps the v2 transport behind a feature flag while letting follow-up
requests reuse the compacted context instead of falling back to the
legacy compaction item shape.

## What changed

- add `ResponseItem::ContextCompaction` and refresh the generated
app-server / schema / TypeScript fixtures that expose response items on
the wire
- add `core/src/compact_remote_v2.rs` to send compaction through the
standard streamed Responses client, require exactly one
`context_compaction` output item, and install that item into compacted
history
- route manual compact and auto-compaction through the v2 path when
`remote_compaction_v2` is enabled, while keeping the existing remote
compaction path as the fallback
- preserve the new item type across history retention, follow-up request
construction, telemetry, rollout persistence, and rollout-trace
normalization
- add targeted coverage for the feature flag, `context_compaction`
serialization, rollout-trace normalization, and remote-compaction
follow-up behavior

## Verification

- added protocol tests for `context_compaction`
serialization/deserialization in `protocol/src/models.rs`
- added rollout-trace coverage for `context_compaction` normalization in
`rollout-trace/src/reducer/conversation_tests.rs`
- added remote compaction integration coverage for v2 follow-up reuse
and mixed compaction output streams in
`core/tests/suite/compact_remote.rs`

## Summary
- Remove `ghost_snapshot` / `GhostCommit` from the Responses API surface
and generated SDK/schema artifacts.
- Keep legacy config loading compatible, but make undo a no-op that
reports the feature is unavailable.
- Clean up core history, compaction, telemetry, rollout, and tests to
stop carrying ghost snapshot items.

## Testing
- Unit tests passed for `codex-protocol`, `codex-core` targeted undo and
compaction flows, `codex-rollout`, and `codex-app-server-protocol`.
- Regenerated config and app-server schemas plus Python SDK artifacts
and verified they match the checked-in outputs.

Michael BolinandGitHub 755880ef9c permissions: derive config defaults as profiles (#19772)
## Why

This continues the permissions migration by making legacy config default
resolution produce the canonical `PermissionProfile` first. The legacy
`SandboxPolicy` projection should stay available at compatibility
boundaries, but config loading should not create a legacy policy just to
immediately convert it back into a profile.

Specifically, when `default_permissions` is not specified in
`config.toml`, instead of creating a `SandboxPolicy` in
`codex-rs/core/src/config/mod.rs` and then trying to derive a
`PermissionProfile` from it, we use `derive_permission_profile()` to
create a more faithful `PermissionProfile` using the values of
`ConfigToml` directly.

This also keeps the existing behavior of `sandbox_workspace_write` and
extra writable roots after #19841 replaced `:cwd` with `:project_roots`.
Legacy workspace-write defaults are represented as symbolic
`:project_roots` write access plus symbolic project-root metadata
carveouts. Extra absolute writable roots are still added directly and
continue to get concrete metadata protections for paths that exist under
those roots.

The platform sandboxes differ when a symbolic project-root subpath does
not exist yet.

* **Seatbelt** can encode literal/subpath exclusions directly, so macOS
emits project-root metadata subpath policies even if `.git`, `.agents`,
or `.codex` do not exist.
* **bwrap** has to materialize bind-mount targets. Binding `/dev/null`
to a missing `.git` can create a host-visible placeholder that changes
Git repo discovery. Binding missing `.agents` would not affect Git
discovery, but it would still create a host-visible project metadata
placeholder from an automatic compatibility carveout. Linux therefore
skips only missing automatic `.git` and `.agents` read-only metadata
masks; missing `.codex` remains protected so first-time project config
creation goes through the protected-path approval flow. User-authored
`read` and `none` subpath rules keep normal bwrap behavior, and `none`
can still mask the first missing component to prevent creation under
writable roots.

## What Changed

- Adds profile-native helpers for legacy workspace-write semantics,
including `PermissionProfile::workspace_write_with()`,
`FileSystemSandboxPolicy::workspace_write()`, and
`FileSystemSandboxPolicy::with_additional_legacy_workspace_writable_roots()`.
- Makes `FileSystemSandboxPolicy::workspace_write()` the single legacy
workspace-write constructor so both `from_legacy_sandbox_policy()` and
`From<&SandboxPolicy>` include the project-root metadata carveouts.
- Removes the no-carveout `legacy_workspace_write_base_policy()` path
and the `prune_read_entries_under_writable_roots()` cleanup that was
only needed by that split construction.
- Adds `ConfigToml::derive_permission_profile()` for legacy sandbox-mode
fallback resolution; named `default_permissions` profiles continue
through the permissions profile pipeline instead of being reconstructed
from `sandbox_mode`.
- Updates `Config::load()` to start from the derived profile, validate
that it still has a legacy compatibility projection, and apply
additional writable roots directly to managed workspace-write filesystem
policies.
- Updates Linux bwrap argument construction so missing automatic
`.git`/`.agents` symbolic project-root read-only carveouts are skipped
before emitting bind args; missing `.codex`, user-authored `read`/`none`
subpath rules, and existing missing writable-root behavior are
preserved.
- Adds coverage that legacy workspace-write config produces symbolic
project-root metadata carveouts, extra legacy workspace writable roots
still protect existing metadata paths such as `.git`, and bwrap skips
missing `.git`/`.agents` project-root carveouts while preserving missing
`.codex` and user-authored missing subpath rules.

Michael BolinandGitHub 4b55979755 permissions: remove cwd special path (#19841)
## Why

The experimental `PermissionProfile` API had both `:cwd` and
`:project_roots` special filesystem paths, which made the permission
root ambiguous. This PR removes the unstable `current_working_directory`
special path before the permissions API is stabilized, so callers use
`:project_roots` for symbolic project-root access.

## What changed

- Removes `FileSystemSpecialPath::CurrentWorkingDirectory` from protocol
and app-server protocol models, plus regenerated app-server
JSON/TypeScript schemas.
- Replaces internal `:cwd` permission entries with `:project_roots`
entries.
- Keeps the existing cwd-update behavior for legacy-shaped
workspace-write profiles, while removing the deleted
`CurrentWorkingDirectory` case from that compatibility path.
- Keeps `PermissionProfile::workspace_write()` as the reusable symbolic
workspace-write helper, with docs noting that `:project_roots` entries
resolve at enforcement time.
- Updates app-server docs/examples and approval UI labeling to stop
advertising `:cwd` as a permission token.

## Compatibility

Persisted rollout items may contain the old
`{"kind":"current_working_directory"}` tag from earlier experimental
`permissionProfile` snapshots. This PR keeps that tag as a
deserialize-only alias for `ProjectRoots { subpath: None }`, while
continuing to serialize only the new `project_roots` tag.

## Follow-up

This PR intentionally does not introduce an explicit project-root set on
`SessionConfiguration` or runtime sandbox resolution. Today, the
resolver still uses the active cwd as the single implicit project root.
A follow-up should model project roots separately from tool cwd so
`:project_roots` entries can resolve against the configured project
roots, and resolve to no entries when there are no project roots.

Michael BolinandGitHub deaa307fb2 permissions: derive compatibility policies from profiles (#19392)
## Why

After #19391, `PermissionProfile` and the split filesystem/network
policies could still be stored in parallel. That creates drift risk: a
profile can preserve deny globs, external enforcement, or split
filesystem entries while a cached projection silently loses those
details. This PR makes the profile the runtime source and derives
compatibility views from it.

## What Changed

- Removes stored filesystem/network sandbox projections from
`Permissions` and `SessionConfiguration`; their accessors now derive
from the canonical `PermissionProfile`.
- Derives legacy `SandboxPolicy` snapshots from profiles only where an
older API still needs that field.
- Updates MCP connection and elicitation state to track
`PermissionProfile` instead of `SandboxPolicy` for auto-approval
decisions.
- Adds semantic filesystem-policy comparison so cwd changes can preserve
richer profiles while still recognizing equivalent legacy projections
independent of entry ordering.
- Updates config/session tests to assert profile-derived projections
instead of parallel stored fields.

## Verification

- `cargo test -p codex-core direct_write_roots`
- `cargo test -p codex-core runtime_roots_to_legacy_projection`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server

Michael BolinandGitHub 4d7ce3447d permissions: make runtime config profile-backed (#19606)
## Why

This supersedes #19391. During stack repair, GitHub marked #19391 as
merged into a temporary stack branch rather than into `main`, so the
runtime-config change needed a fresh PR.

`PermissionProfile` is now the canonical permissions shape after #19231
because it can distinguish `Managed`, `Disabled`, and `External`
enforcement while also carrying filesystem rules that legacy
`SandboxPolicy` cannot represent cleanly. Core config and session state
still needed to accept profile-backed permissions without forcing every
profile through the strict legacy bridge, which rejected valid runtime
profiles such as direct write roots.

The unrelated CI/test hardening that previously rode along with this PR
has been split into #19683 so this PR stays focused on the permissions
model migration.

## What Changed

- Adds `Permissions.permission_profile` and
`SessionConfiguration.permission_profile` as constrained runtime state,
while keeping `sandbox_policy` as a legacy compatibility projection.
- Introduces profile setters that keep `PermissionProfile`, split
filesystem/network policies, and legacy `SandboxPolicy` projections
synchronized.
- Uses a compatibility projection for requirement checks and legacy
consumers instead of rejecting profiles that cannot round-trip through
`SandboxPolicy` exactly.
- Updates config loading, config overrides, session updates, turn
context plumbing, prompt permission text, sandbox tags, and exec request
construction to carry profile-backed runtime permissions.
- Preserves configured deny-read entries and `glob_scan_max_depth` when
command/session profiles are narrowed.
- Adds `PermissionProfile::read_only()` and
`PermissionProfile::workspace_write()` presets that match legacy
defaults.

## Verification

- `cargo test -p codex-core direct_write_roots`
- `cargo test -p codex-core runtime_roots_to_legacy_projection`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server

Michael BolinandGitHub 13e0ec1614 permissions: make legacy profile conversion cwd-free (#19414)
## Why

The profile conversion path still required a `cwd` even when it was only
translating a legacy `SandboxPolicy` into a `PermissionProfile`. That
made profile producers invent an ambient `cwd`, which is exactly the
anchoring we are trying to remove from permission-profile data. A legacy
workspace-write policy can be represented symbolically instead: `:cwd =
write` plus read-only `:project_roots` metadata subpaths.

This PR creates that cwd-free base so the rest of the stack can stop
threading cwd through profile construction. Callers that actually need a
concrete runtime filesystem policy for a specific cwd still have an
explicitly named cwd-bound conversion.

## What Changed

- `PermissionProfile::from_legacy_sandbox_policy` now takes only
`&SandboxPolicy`.
- `FileSystemSandboxPolicy::from_legacy_sandbox_policy` is now the
symbolic, cwd-free projection for profiles.
- The old concrete projection is retained as
`FileSystemSandboxPolicy::from_legacy_sandbox_policy_for_cwd` for
runtime/boundary code that must materialize legacy cwd behavior.
- Workspace-write profiles preserve `CurrentWorkingDirectory` and
`ProjectRoots` special entries instead of materializing cwd into
absolute paths.

Michael BolinandGitHub 4816b89204 permissions: make profiles represent enforcement (#19231)
## Why

`PermissionProfile` is becoming the canonical permissions abstraction,
but the old shape only carried optional filesystem and network fields.
It could describe allowed access, but not who is responsible for
enforcing it. That made `DangerFullAccess` and `ExternalSandbox` lossy
when profiles were exported, cached, or round-tripped through app-server
APIs.

The important model change is that active permissions are now a disjoint
union over the enforcement mode. Conceptually:

```rust
pub enum PermissionProfile {
    Managed {
        file_system: FileSystemSandboxPolicy,
        network: NetworkSandboxPolicy,
    },
    Disabled,
    External {
        network: NetworkSandboxPolicy,
    },
}
```

This distinction matters because `Disabled` means Codex should apply no
outer sandbox at all, while `External` means filesystem isolation is
owned by an outside caller. Those are not equivalent to a broad managed
sandbox. For example, macOS cannot nest Seatbelt inside Seatbelt, so an
inner sandbox may require the outer Codex layer to use no sandbox rather
than a permissive one.

## How Existing Modeling Maps

Legacy `SandboxPolicy` remains a boundary projection, but it now maps
into the higher-fidelity profile model:

- `ReadOnly` and `WorkspaceWrite` map to `PermissionProfile::Managed`
with restricted filesystem entries plus the corresponding network
policy.
- `DangerFullAccess` maps to `PermissionProfile::Disabled`, preserving
the “no outer sandbox” intent instead of treating it as a lax managed
sandbox.
- `ExternalSandbox { network_access }` maps to
`PermissionProfile::External { network }`, preserving external
filesystem enforcement while still carrying the active network policy.
- Split runtime policies that legacy `SandboxPolicy` cannot faithfully
express, such as managed unrestricted filesystem plus restricted
network, stay `Managed` instead of being collapsed into
`ExternalSandbox`.
- Per-command/session/turn grants remain partial overlays via
`AdditionalPermissionProfile`; full `PermissionProfile` is reserved for
complete active runtime permissions.

## What Changed

- Change active `PermissionProfile` into a tagged union: `managed`,
`disabled`, and `external`.
- Keep partial permission grants separate with
`AdditionalPermissionProfile` for command/session/turn overlays.
- Represent managed filesystem permissions as either `restricted`
entries or `unrestricted`; `glob_scan_max_depth` is non-zero when
present.
- Preserve old rollout compatibility by accepting the pre-tagged `{
network, file_system }` profile shape during deserialization.
- Preserve fidelity for important edge cases: `DangerFullAccess`
round-trips as `disabled`, `ExternalSandbox` round-trips as `external`,
and managed unrestricted filesystem + restricted network stays managed
instead of being mistaken for external enforcement.
- Preserve configured deny-read entries and bounded glob scan depth when
full profiles are projected back into runtime policies, including
unrestricted replacements that now become `:root = write` plus deny
entries.
- Regenerate the experimental app-server v2 JSON/TypeScript schema and
update the `command/exec` README example for the tagged
`permissionProfile` shape.

## Compatibility

Legacy `SandboxPolicy` remains available at config/API boundaries as the
compatibility projection. Existing rollout lines with the old
`PermissionProfile` shape continue to load. The app-server
`permissionProfile` field is experimental, so its v2 wire shape is
intentionally updated to match the higher-fidelity model.

Michael BolinandGitHub 18a26d7bbc app-server: accept permission profile overrides (#18279)
## Why

`PermissionProfile` is becoming the canonical permissions shape shared
by core and app-server. After app-server responses expose the active
profile, clients need to be able to send that same shape back when
starting, resuming, forking, or overriding a turn instead of translating
through the legacy `sandbox`/`sandboxPolicy` shorthands.

This still needs to preserve the existing requirements/platform
enforcement model. A profile-shaped request can be downgraded or
rejected by constraints, but the server should keep the user's
elevated-access intent for project trust decisions. Turn-level profile
overrides also need to retain existing read protections, including
deny-read entries and bounded glob-scan metadata, so a permission
override cannot accidentally drop configured protections such as
`**/*.env = deny`.

## What changed

- Adds optional `permissionProfile` request fields to `thread/start`,
`thread/resume`, `thread/fork`, and `turn/start`.
- Rejects ambiguous requests that specify both `permissionProfile` and
the legacy `sandbox`/`sandboxPolicy` fields, including running-thread
resume requests.
- Converts profile-shaped overrides into core runtime filesystem/network
permissions while continuing to derive the constrained legacy sandbox
projection used by existing execution paths.
- Preserves project-trust intent for profile overrides that are
equivalent to workspace-write or full-access sandbox requests.
- Preserves existing deny-read entries and `globScanMaxDepth` when
applying turn-level `permissionProfile` overrides.
- Updates app-server docs plus generated JSON/TypeScript schema fixtures
and regression coverage.

## Verification

- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol schema_fixtures`
- `cargo test -p codex-core

Michael BolinandGitHub 3d2f123895 protocol: preserve glob scan depth in permission profiles (#18713)
## Why

#18274 made `PermissionProfile` the canonical file-system permissions
shape, but the round-trip from `FileSystemSandboxPolicy` to
`PermissionProfile` still dropped one piece of policy metadata:
`glob_scan_max_depth`.

That field is security-relevant for deny-read globs such as `**/*.env`.
On Linux, bubblewrap sandbox construction uses it to bound unreadable
glob expansion. If a profile copied from active runtime permissions
loses this value and is submitted back as an override, the resulting
`FileSystemSandboxPolicy` can behave differently even though the visible
permission entries look equivalent.

## What changed

- Add `glob_scan_max_depth` to protocol `FileSystemPermissions` and
preserve it when converting to/from `FileSystemSandboxPolicy`.
- Keep legacy `read`/`write` JSON for simple path-only permissions, but
force canonical JSON when glob scan depth is present so the metadata is
not silently dropped.
- Carry `globScanMaxDepth` through app-server
`AdditionalFileSystemPermissions`, generated JSON/TypeScript schemas,
and app-server/TUI conversion call sites.
- Preserve the metadata through sandboxing permission normalization,
merging, and intersection.
- Carry the merged scan depth into the effective
`FileSystemSandboxPolicy` used for command execution, so bounded
deny-read globs reach Linux bubblewrap materialization.

## Verification

- `cargo test -p codex-sandboxing glob_scan -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-sandboxing policy_transforms -- --nocapture`
- `just fix -p codex-sandboxing`

Michael BolinandGitHub dcec516313 protocol: canonicalize file system permissions (#18274)
## Why

`PermissionProfile` needs stable, canonical file-system semantics before
it can become the primary runtime permissions abstraction. Without a
canonical form, callers have to keep re-deriving legacy sandbox maps and
profile comparisons remain lossy or order-dependent.

## What changed

This adds canonicalization helpers for `FileSystemPermissions` and
`PermissionProfile`, expands special paths into explicit sandbox
entries, and updates permission request/conversion paths to consume
those canonical entries. It also tightens the legacy bridge so root-wide
write profiles with narrower carveouts are not silently projected as
full-disk legacy access.

- update code-mode `image(...)` to accept individual MCP image blocks
- teach `js_repl` / `codex.emitImage(...)` to preserve the same hint
from raw MCP image outputs
- document the new `_meta` contract and add generic RMCP-backed coverage
across protocol, core, code-mode, and js_repl paths

pakrym-oaiandGitHub 413c1e1fdf [codex] reduce module visibility (#16978)
## Summary
- reduce public module visibility across Rust crates, preferring private
or crate-private modules with explicit crate-root public exports
- update external call sites and tests to use the intended public crate
APIs instead of reaching through module trees
- add the module visibility guideline to AGENTS.md

## Validation
- `cargo check --workspace --all-targets --message-format=short` passed
before the final fix/format pass
- `just fix` completed successfully
- `just fmt` completed successfully
- `git diff --check` passed

Michael BolinandGitHub 61dfe0b86c chore: clean up argument-comment lint and roll out all-target CI on macOS (#16054)
## Why

`argument-comment-lint` was green in CI even though the repo still had
many uncommented literal arguments. The main gap was target coverage:
the repo wrapper did not force Cargo to inspect test-only call sites, so
examples like the `latest_session_lookup_params(true, ...)` tests in
`codex-rs/tui_app_server/src/lib.rs` never entered the blocking CI path.

This change cleans up the existing backlog, makes the default repo lint
path cover all Cargo targets, and starts rolling that stricter CI
enforcement out on the platform where it is currently validated.

## What changed

- mechanically fixed existing `argument-comment-lint` violations across
the `codex-rs` workspace, including tests, examples, and benches
- updated `tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh` and
`tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh` so non-`--fix` runs default to
`--all-targets` unless the caller explicitly narrows the target set
- fixed both wrappers so forwarded cargo arguments after `--` are
preserved with a single separator
- documented the new default behavior in
`tools/argument-comment-lint/README.md`
- updated `rust-ci` so the macOS lint lane keeps the plain wrapper
invocation and therefore enforces `--all-targets`, while Linux and
Windows temporarily pass `-- --lib --bins`

That temporary CI split keeps the stricter all-targets check where it is
already cleaned up, while leaving room to finish the remaining Linux-
and Windows-specific target-gated cleanup before enabling
`--all-targets` on those runners. The Linux and Windows failures on the
intermediate revision were caused by the wrapper forwarding bug, not by
additional lint findings in those lanes.

## Validation

- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh`
- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --lib --bins`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --tests`
- `just argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test` in `tools/argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test -p codex-terminal-detection`

## Follow-up

- Clean up remaining Linux-only target-gated callsites, then switch the
Linux lint lane back to the plain wrapper invocation.
- Clean up remaining Windows-only target-gated callsites, then switch
the Windows lint lane back to the plain wrapper invocation.

Michael BolinandGitHub e6e2999209 permissions: remove macOS seatbelt extension profiles (#15918)
## Why

`PermissionProfile` should only describe the per-command permissions we
still want to grant dynamically. Keeping
`MacOsSeatbeltProfileExtensions` in that surface forced extra macOS-only
approval, protocol, schema, and TUI branches for a capability we no
longer want to expose.

## What changed

- Removed the macOS-specific permission-profile types from
`codex-protocol`, the app-server v2 API, and the generated
schema/TypeScript artifacts.
- Deleted the core and sandboxing plumbing that threaded
`MacOsSeatbeltProfileExtensions` through execution requests and seatbelt
construction.
- Simplified macOS seatbelt generation so it always includes the fixed
read-only preferences allowlist instead of carrying a configurable
profile extension.
- Removed the macOS additional-permissions UI/docs/test coverage and
deleted the obsolete macOS permission modules.
- Tightened `request_permissions` intersection handling so explicitly
empty requested read lists are preserved only when that field was
actually granted, avoiding zero-grant responses being stored as active
permissions.

0f957a93cd Move git utilities into a dedicated crate (#15564)
- create `codex-git-utils` and move the shared git helpers into it with
file moves preserved for diff readability
- move the `GitInfo` helpers out of `core` so stacked rollout work can
depend on the shared crate without carrying its own git info module

pakrym-oaiandGitHub 83a60fdb94 Add FS abstraction and use in view_image (#14960)
Adds an environment crate and environment + file system abstraction.

Environment is a combination of attributes and services specific to
environment the agent is connected to:
File system, process management, OS, default shell.

The goal is to move most of agent logic that assumes environment to work
through the environment abstraction.

904dbd414f generate an internal json schema for RolloutLine (#14434)
### Why
i'm working on something that parses and analyzes codex rollout logs,
and i'd like to have a schema for generating a parser/validator.

`codex app-server generate-internal-json-schema` writes an
`RolloutLine.json` file

while doing this, i noticed we have a writer <> reader mismatch issue on
`FunctionCallOutputPayload` and reasoning item ID -- added some schemars
annotations to fix those

### Test

```
$ just codex app-server generate-internal-json-schema --out ./foo
```

generates an `RolloutLine.json` file, which i validated against jsonl
files on disk

`just codex app-server --help` doesn't expose the
`generate-internal-json-schema` option by default, but you can do `just
codex app-server generate-internal-json-schema --help` if you know the
command

everything else still works
