## Why
Connector metadata is consumed by connector discovery, ChatGPT
integration, core, and TUI code. Treating app-server's wire DTO as the
shared domain model reverses the intended dependency direction.
## What changed
- Added connector-owned app branding, review, screenshot, metadata, and
info types.
- Added explicit conversions in app-server and TUI while preserving
app-server's wire payloads.
- Removed production app-server-protocol dependencies from connectors
and ChatGPT connector code.
## Stack
This is PR 4 of 6, stacked on [PR
#29722](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/29722). Review only the

## Validation
- Connector and tools coverage passed.
- App-server app-list coverage passed: 13 tests.
Summary
- Propagate cached remote plugin IDs through Codex plugin discovery.
- Inject `remote_plugin_id` and connector IDs into
`request_plugin_install` elicitation `_meta` from the resolved plugin.
- Keep the remote plugin ID out of the model-facing tool schema,
arguments, and result.
Validation
- `just test -p codex-tools`
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins`
- `just test -p codex-core
list_tool_suggest_discoverable_plugins_includes_cached_remote_global_plugins`
- `just fix -p codex-tools`
- `just fix -p codex-core-plugins`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `git diff --check`
- `just test -p codex-core` was also attempted: 2,581 passed, 55 failed,
and 1 timed out across unrelated sandbox/environment-sensitive
integration tests.
Tool suggest still misfires when model needs tool_search, updating the
prompts to further disambiguate it:
- [x] rename it from `tool_suggest` to `request_plugin_install`
- [x] rephrase "suggestion" to "install" in the tool descriptions.
- [x] disambiguate "the tool" vs "the plugin/connector".
Tested with the Codex App and verified it still works.
