• [codex] Remove external client session reset plumbing (#24157)

  ## Why
  
  The turn loop no longer needs to decide when a `ModelClientSession`
  should reset its websocket state after compaction. That reset behavior
  belongs inside the model client, where the websocket cache and retry
  state are owned. The repo guidance now calls this out explicitly so
  future changes let the incremental request logic decide whether the
  previous request can be reused.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Removed the `reset_client_session` return value from pre-sampling and
  auto-compact helpers in `core/src/session/turn.rs`.
  - Changed compaction helpers to return `CodexResult<()>` so callers only
  handle success or failure.
  - Made `ModelClientSession::reset_websocket_session` private to
  `core/src/client.rs`, leaving it callable only from model-client
  internals.
  - Added `AGENTS.md` guidance not to call `reset_client_session`
  unnecessarily.
  
  ## Validation
  
  - `just test -p codex-core session::turn`

• [codex] Use TurnInput for session task input (#24151)

  ## Why
  
  The idea here is to erase the difference between initial and followup
  inputs to a turn. Followup inputs are already represented as TurnInput.
  
  Eventual goal is not to have explicit on task input at all and pull
  everything from input Q.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Changes `SessionTask::run` and the erased `AnySessionTask::run` path
  to accept `Vec<TurnInput>`.
  - Wraps user-submitted spawn input as `TurnInput::UserInput` at the
  session task start boundary.
  - Updates `run_turn` to record initial `TurnInput` using the same hook
  and recording path used for pending input.
  - Keeps review-specific conversion local to `ReviewTask`, where the
  sub-Codex one-shot API still expects `Vec<UserInput>`.
  - Moves the synthetic compact prompt into `CompactTask` and starts
  compact tasks with empty task input.
  
  ## Validation
  
  - `cargo check -p codex-core`
  - `just test -p codex-core -E
  'test(task_finish_emits_turn_item_lifecycle_for_leftover_pending_user_input)
  | test(queued_response_items_for_next_turn_move_into_next_active_turn) |

• Add trace_id to TurnStartedEvent (#23980)

  ## Why
  [Recent PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22709) removed
  `trace_id` from `TurnContextItem`.
  
  ## What changed
  - Add to `TurnStartedEvent` so rollout consumers can correlate turns
  with telemetry traces.
  - Note that the branch name is out of date because I originally re-added
  to `TurnContextItem`, but we decided to move it to `TurnStartedEvent`.
  
  ## Verification

• otel: drop legacy profile usage telemetry (#24061)

  ## Summary
  - drop the dead legacy profile usage metric and active-profile
  conversation-start fields
  - update role comments so they describe provider and service-tier
  preservation without legacy config-profile wording
  - pair the code cleanup with the file-backed profile docs update in
  openai/developers-website#1476
  
  ## Testing
  - `just fmt`
  - `cargo test -p codex-otel`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core` *(fails: existing stack overflow in
  `mcp_tool_call::tests::guardian_mode_mcp_denial_returns_rationale_message`)*
  - `cargo test -p codex-core --lib
  mcp_tool_call::tests::guardian_mode_mcp_denial_returns_rationale_message`
  *(fails with the same stack overflow)*

• config: remove legacy profile write paths (#24055)

  ## Why
  
  [#23883](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/23883) moved the
  user-facing `--profile` flag onto profile v2 and
  [#23886](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/23886) removed CLI
  forwarding for the legacy profile-v1 path. Core and TUI config
  persistence still carried `active_profile` and
  `ConfigEditsBuilder::with_profile`, which let later writes continue
  targeting legacy `[profiles.<name>]` tables after profile selection
  moved to profile-v2 config files.
  
  ## What
  
  - Remove legacy profile routing from
  [`ConfigEditsBuilder`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/4b38e9c22e762261d7f7eef49d8a21792e241a06/codex-rs/core/src/config/edit.rs#L1064-L1294),
  so core config edits no longer carry `with_profile` or infer
  `[profiles.*]` write targets from a `profile` key.
  - Drop `active_profile` plumbing from runtime `Config`, TUI
  startup/state, app-server config override forwarding, and Windows
  sandbox setup persistence.
  - Make app-server-backed TUI config edits use unscoped model,
  service-tier, feature, Auto-review, plan-mode, and Windows sandbox paths
  through
  [`tui/src/config_update.rs`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/4b38e9c22e762261d7f7eef49d8a21792e241a06/codex-rs/tui/src/config_update.rs#L43-L112).
  - Update config edit coverage so legacy `profile` state stays untouched
  by direct model writes, and remove tests whose only contract was the
  deleted profile-scoped persistence path.
  
  ## Testing
  
  - Not run locally.

• Remove plugin hooks feature flag (#22552)

  # Why
  
  This is a follow-up stacked on top of the `plugin_hooks` default-on
  change. Once we are comfortable making plugin hooks part of the normal
  plugin behavior, the separate feature flag stops buying us much and
  leaves extra branching/cache state behind.
  
  # What
  
  - remove the `PluginHooks` feature and generated config-schema entries
  - make plugin hook loading/listing follow plugin enablement directly
  - drop plugin-manager cache/state that only existed to distinguish
  hook-flag toggles
  - remove tests and fixtures that modeled `plugin_hooks = true/false`

• Route MCP servers through explicit environments (#23583)

  ## Summary
  - route each configured MCP server through an explicit per-server
  `environment_id` instead of a manager-wide remote toggle
  - default omitted `environment_id` to `local`, resolve named ids through
  `EnvironmentManager`, and fail only the affected MCP server when an
  explicit id is unknown
  - keep local stdio on the existing local launcher path for now, while
  named-environment stdio uses the selected environment backend and
  requires an absolute `cwd`
  - allow local HTTP MCP servers to keep using the ambient HTTP client
  when no local `Environment` is configured; named-environment HTTP MCPs
  use that environment's HTTP client
  
  ## Validation
  - devbox Bazel build: `bazel build --bes_backend= --bes_results_url=
  //codex-rs/cli:codex //codex-rs/rmcp-client:test_stdio_server
  //codex-rs/rmcp-client:test_streamable_http_server`
  - devbox app-server config matrix with real `config.toml` /
  `environments.toml` files covering omitted local, explicit local,
  omitted local under remote default, explicit remote stdio, local HTTP
  without local env, explicit remote HTTP, local stdio without local env,
  unknown explicit env, and remote stdio without `cwd`

• Honor client-resolved service tier defaults (#23537)

  ## Why
  
  Model catalog responses can now advertise a nullable
  `default_service_tier` for each model. Codex needs to preserve three
  distinct states all the way from config/app-server inputs to inference:
  
  - no explicit service tier, so the client may apply the current model
  catalog default when FastMode is enabled
  - explicit `default`, meaning the user intentionally wants standard
  routing
  - explicit catalog tier ids such as `priority`, `flex`, or future tiers
  
  Keeping those states distinct prevents the UI from showing one tier
  while core sends another, especially after model switches or app-server
  `thread/start` / `turn/start` updates.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Plumbed `default_service_tier` through model catalog protocol types,
  app-server model responses, generated schemas, model cache fixtures, and
  provider/model-manager conversions.
  - Added the request-only `default` service tier sentinel and normalized
  legacy config spelling so `fast` in `config.toml` still materializes as
  the runtime/request id `priority`.
  - Moved catalog default resolution to the TUI/client side, including
  recomputing the effective service tier when model/FastMode-dependent
  surfaces change.
  - Updated app-server thread lifecycle config construction so
  `serviceTier: null` preserves explicit standard-routing intent by
  mapping to `default` instead of internal `None`.
  - Kept core responsible for validating explicit tiers against the
  current model and stripping `default` before `/v1/responses`, without
  applying catalog defaults itself.
  
  ## Validation
  
  - `CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 cargo build -p codex-cli`
  - `CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 cargo test -p codex-app-server model_list`

• Add SubagentStop hook (#22873)

  # What
  
  <img width="1792" height="1024" alt="image"
  src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8f81d232-5813-4994-a61d-e42a05a93a3e"
  />
  
  `SubagentStop` runs when a thread-spawned subagent turn is about to
  finish. Thread-spawned subagents use `SubagentStop` instead of the
  normal root-agent `Stop` hook.
  
  Configured handlers match on `agent_type`. Hook input includes the
  normal stop fields plus:
  
  - `agent_id`: the child thread id.
  - `agent_type`: the resolved subagent type.
  - `agent_transcript_path`: the child subagent transcript path.
  - `transcript_path`: the parent thread transcript path.
  - `last_assistant_message`: the final assistant message from the child
  turn, when available.
  - `stop_hook_active`: `true` when the child is already continuing
  because an earlier stop-like hook blocked completion.
  
  `SubagentStop` shares the same completion-control semantics as `Stop`,
  scoped to the child turn:
  
  - No decision allows the child turn to finish.
  - `decision: "block"` with a non-empty `reason` records that reason as
  hook feedback and continues the child with that prompt.
  - `continue: false` stops the child turn. If `stopReason` is present,
  Codex surfaces it as the stop reason.
  
  # Lifecycle Scope
  
  Only thread-spawned subagents run `SubagentStop`.
  
  Internal/system subagents such as Review, Compact, MemoryConsolidation,
  and Other do not run normal `Stop` hooks and do not run `SubagentStop`.
  This avoids exposing synthetic matcher labels for internal
  implementation paths.
  
  # Stack
  
  1. #22782: add `SubagentStart`.
  2. This PR: add `SubagentStop`.
  3. #22882: add subagent identity to normal hook inputs.

• core: refresh active permission profiles at runtime (#22931)

  ## Why
  
  Once a named permission profile is selected, runtime state has to keep
  that profile identity intact instead of collapsing back to anonymous
  effective permissions. The session refresh path also needs to rebuild
  profile-derived network proxy state so active profile switches take
  effect consistently.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Preserve the active permission profile through session updates.
  - Rebuild profile-derived runtime/network configuration when the active
  profile changes.
  - Keep the runtime path aligned with the current session configuration
  APIs.
  - Tighten the affected tests, including the Windows delete-pending
  memory-file case that was intermittently tripping CI.
  
  ## Stack
  
  1. **This PR**: runtime/session/network propagation for active
  permission profiles.
  2. [#23708](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/23708): TUI selection
  plumbing and guardrail flow.
  3. [#21559](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/21559): profile-aware
  `/permissions` menu and custom profile display.

• Support compact SessionStart hooks (#21272)

  # Why
  
  Compaction replaces the live conversation history, so hooks that use
  `SessionStart` to re-inject durable model context need a way to run
  again after that rewrite.
  
  Related - #19905 adds dedicated compact lifecycle hooks
  
  # What
  
  - add `compact` as a supported `SessionStart` source and matcher value
  - change pending `SessionStart` state from a single slot to a small FIFO
  queue so `resume` / `startup` / `clear` can be preserved alongside a
  later `compact`
  - drain all queued `SessionStart` sources before the next model request,
  preserving their original order
  
  # Testing
  
  The new integration coverage verifies both the basic `compact` matcher
  path and the stacked `resume` -> `compact` case where both hooks
  contribute `additionalContext` to the next model turn.

• feat: account active goal progress in the goal extension (#23696)

  ## Why
  
  The goal extension can create and surface goals, but the live
  turn-accounting path still stopped short of persisting active-goal
  progress. That leaves token and wall-clock usage, plus
  `ThreadGoalUpdated` events, out of sync with the extension boundary once
  work actually advances or a goal transitions out of active state.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Teach `GoalAccountingState` to track the current turn, active goal,
  token deltas, and wall-clock progress snapshots against the persisted
  goal id.
  - Flush active-goal accounting from tool-finish, turn-stop, and
  turn-abort lifecycle hooks, and emit `ThreadGoalUpdated` events when
  persisted progress changes.
  - Route `create_goal` and `update_goal` through the same accounting
  state so new goals start from the right baseline, final progress is
  flushed before status changes, and `update_goal` can mark a goal
  `blocked` as well as `complete`.
  - Keep budget-limited goals accruing through the end of the turn while
  clearing local active-goal state once a turn or explicit update is
  finished.
  - Expand backend and lifecycle coverage around store ids, baseline
  reset, tool-finish accounting, budget-limited carry-through, and
  blocked-goal updates.
  
  ## Testing
  
  - Added focused backend coverage in
  `codex-rs/ext/goal/tests/goal_extension_backend.rs` for baseline reset,
  tool-finish accounting, budget-limited turns, and blocked-goal updates.
  - Extended `codex-rs/core/src/session/tests.rs` to assert that lifecycle
  inputs expose the expected session, thread, and turn store ids.

• feat: expose turn-start metadata to extensions (#23688)

  ## Why
  
  The goal extension needs more context when a turn starts than
  `turn_store` alone provides.
  
  In particular, goal accounting needs the stable turn id, the effective
  collaboration mode, and the cumulative token-usage baseline captured at
  turn start so it can:
  
  - suppress goal accounting for plan-mode turns
  - compute exact per-turn deltas from cumulative `total_token_usage`
  snapshots instead of relying on the most recent usage event alone
  - keep the extension-owned accounting path aligned with the host turn
  lifecycle
  
  ## What
  
  - extend `codex_extension_api::TurnStartInput` to expose `turn_id`,
  `collaboration_mode`, and `token_usage_at_turn_start`
  - pass the full `TurnContext` plus the captured token-usage baseline
  through the turn-start lifecycle emission path
  - initialize goal turn accounting from the turn-start baseline and
  collaboration mode
  - switch goal token accounting to compute deltas from cumulative
  `total_token_usage` snapshots
  - add coverage for the new turn-start lifecycle fields and for
  goal-accounting baseline behavior
  
  ## Testing
  
  - added `turn_start_lifecycle_exposes_turn_metadata_and_token_baseline`
  in `codex-rs/core/src/session/tests.rs`
  - added `ext/goal/tests/accounting.rs` coverage for baseline-aware goal
  accounting and plan-mode suppression

• Warn on invalid UTF-8 in AGENTS.md files (#23232)

  Fixes #23223.
  
  ## Why
  
  Malformed AGENTS instructions should not fail silently. The reported
  issue had invalid UTF-8 in a global `AGENTS.md`; before this change,
  Codex treated that decode failure like a missing file, so the personal
  instructions disappeared without a user-visible explanation and the
  rollout had no `# AGENTS.md instructions` block.
  
  Project-level AGENTS files already used lossy decoding, so their
  instructions still appeared, but invalid bytes were replaced without
  telling the user. Global and project AGENTS files should behave
  consistently: keep usable instruction text when possible, and surface a
  diagnostic when bytes had to be replaced.
  
  ## What changed
  
  Global `AGENTS.override.md` and `AGENTS.md` loading now reads bytes and
  decodes with replacement characters on invalid UTF-8, matching
  project-level AGENTS behavior. Both global and project AGENTS loading
  now emit a startup warning when invalid UTF-8 is found, and both keep
  the instruction text with invalid byte sequences replaced.
  
  Missing files, non-file candidates, empty files, and the existing
  `AGENTS.override.md` before `AGENTS.md` precedence keep their current
  behavior.
  
  ## How users see it
  
  The warnings flow through the existing startup warning surface.
  App-server clients receive config-time startup warnings as
  `configWarning` notifications during initialization, and thread startup
  emits startup warnings as thread-scoped `warning` notifications.
  
  Global AGENTS invalid UTF-8 warnings can appear on both surfaces.
  Project-level AGENTS invalid UTF-8 warnings are discovered while
  building thread instructions, so they appear as thread-scoped `warning`
  notifications. Clients that render warning notifications in the
  conversation surface show the message as a visible diagnostic instead of
  silently hiding or altering instructions.

• Move plugin and skill warmup into session startup (#23535)

  ## Why
  
  Plugin and skill loading is useful as warmup and early validation, but
  session startup does not need to wait for that work before it can
  continue building the session. Keeping it on the serial startup path
  adds avoidable latency to every fresh thread start.
  
  We still want invalid skill configurations to show up quickly, and we
  want the warmup to exercise the same plugin and skill manager caches
  that the normal turn path uses.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - moved plugin and skill warmup into the session startup async path
  instead of eagerly awaiting it on the serial setup path
  - kept the warmup using the session's resolved filesystem/environment
  context so skill loading still sees the right roots
  - preserved early skill-load error logging so broken skill
  configurations still surface during startup
  - left the per-turn plugin and skill loading path unchanged, so turns
  still use the normal cached managers
  
  ## Testing
  
  - Not run locally; relying on CI for validation.

• Split plugin install discovery into list and request tools (#23372)

  ## Summary
  - Add `list_available_plugins_to_install` as the inventory step for
  plugin and connector install suggestions.
  - Slim `request_plugin_install` so it only handles the actual
  elicitation, instead of carrying the full discoverable list in its
  prompt.
  - Emit send-time telemetry when an install elicitation is dispatched,
  including requested tool identity in the event payload.
  - Emit install-result telemetry through `SessionTelemetry`, including
  tool type, user response action, and completion status.
  - Update registration and tests to cover the new two-step flow while
  keeping the existing `tool_suggest` feature gate unchanged.

• Add SubagentStart hook (#22782)

  # What
  
  `SubagentStart` runs once when Codex creates a thread-spawned subagent,
  before that child sends its first model request. Thread-spawned
  subagents use `SubagentStart` instead of the normal root-agent
  `SessionStart` hook.
  
  Configured handlers match on the subagent `agent_type`, using the same
  value passed to `spawn_agent`. When no agent type is specified, Codex
  uses the default agent type.
  
  Hook input includes the normal session-start fields plus:
  
  - `agent_id`: the child thread id.
  - `agent_type`: the resolved subagent type.
  
  `SubagentStart` may return `hookSpecificOutput.additionalContext`. That
  context is added to the child conversation before the first model
  request.
  
  # Lifecycle Scope
  
  Only thread-spawned subagents run `SubagentStart`.
  
  Internal/system subagents such as Review, Compact, MemoryConsolidation,
  and Other do not run normal `SessionStart` hooks and do not run
  `SubagentStart`. This avoids exposing synthetic matcher labels for
  internal implementation paths.
  
  Also the `SessionStart` hook no longer fires for subagents, this matches
  behavior with other coding agents' implementation
  
  # Stack

  2. #22873: add `SubagentStop`.
  3. #22882: add subagent identity to normal hook inputs.

• 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
  --lib`
  - `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

• [codex] Preserve steer input as user input (#23405)

  ## Why
  
  Steered input was queued as a `ResponseInputItem`, then parsed back into
  a user message before recording. That path loses information that only
  exists on `UserInput`, such as UI text elements.
  
  This change keeps turn-local pending input typed as either original
  `UserInput` or existing response items, so steered user input reaches
  user-message recording without being reconstructed from a response item.
  
  ## What changed

  - Queue `Session::steer_input` as `TurnInput::UserInput`.
  - Run pending-input hook inspection only for `TurnInput::UserInput`.

• [codex] Move hook request plumbing into hook runtime (#23388)

  ## Why
  
  `run_turn` was still hand-building hook payloads and lifecycle events
  for a couple of hook paths. Most hook call sites already delegate
  request construction and event emission to `hook_runtime`, which keeps
  turn orchestration focused on model-flow decisions rather than hook
  plumbing.
  
  This also keeps the legacy `after_agent` message extraction next to the
  legacy hook dispatch instead of leaving response-item walking in
  `run_turn`.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Added `run_stop_hooks` in `hook_runtime` to build `StopRequest`, emit
  preview start events, run the hook, and emit completion events.
  - Added `run_legacy_after_agent_hook` in `hook_runtime` to build and
  dispatch the legacy `AfterAgent` hook payload, including extracting
  input messages from response items.
  - Updated `run_turn` to call the hook runtime helpers and keep only the
  resulting continuation/block/stop decisions inline.
  - Removed the repeated pending session-start hook check from the run
  loop.
  
  ## Validation
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-core hook_runtime`

• [codex] Allow empty turn/start requests (#23409)

  ## Why
  
  `turn/start` already accepts an input array on the wire, including an
  empty array, but core treated empty input as a no-op before the turn
  could reach the model. App-server clients need to be able to start a
  real turn even when there is no new user message, for example to let the
  model proceed from existing thread context.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Removed the `run_turn` early return that skipped empty-input turns
  when there was no pending input.
  - Kept empty active-turn steering rejected by moving the `steer_input`
  empty-input check until after core has determined whether there is an
  active regular turn.
  - Empty regular turns now refresh `previous_turn_settings` like other
  regular turns, so follow-up context injection state advances
  consistently.
  - Added an app-server v2 integration test proving `turn/start` with
  `input: []` emits started/completed notifications, sends one Responses
  request, and does not synthesize an empty user message.
  
  ## Validation
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server --test all

• Add body_after_prefix auto-compact token limit scope (#22870)

  ## Why
  
  `model_auto_compact_token_limit` has only been able to budget the full
  active context. That makes it hard to set a small "growth since
  compaction" budget for sessions that preserve a large carried window
  prefix: the preserved prefix can consume the whole budget and force
  immediate repeated compaction.
  
  This PR adds an opt-in `body_after_prefix` scope so callers can apply
  `model_auto_compact_token_limit` to sampled output and later growth
  after the current carried prefix, while still forcing compaction before
  the full model context window is exhausted.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Adds `AutoCompactTokenLimitScope` with the existing `total` behavior
  as the default and a new `body_after_prefix` mode:
  [`config_types.rs`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/973806b1cb35792555bead994cb3ed94656eb171/codex-rs/protocol/src/config_types.rs#L24-L37).
  - Threads `model_auto_compact_token_limit_scope` through config loading,
  `Config`, `core-api`, and app-server v2 schema/TypeScript generation.
  - Records the first observed input-token count for a `body_after_prefix`
  compaction window and uses it as the baseline when deciding whether the
  scoped auto-compaction budget is exhausted:
  [`turn.rs`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/973806b1cb35792555bead994cb3ed94656eb171/codex-rs/core/src/session/turn.rs#L743-L781).
  - Keeps a hard context-window cap in `body_after_prefix`, so scoped
  budgeting cannot let the active context overrun the usable window.
  
  ## Verification
  
  Added compact-suite coverage for the two key behaviors:
  `body_after_prefix` does not re-compact just because the carried prefix
  is larger than the scoped budget, and it still compacts when the total
  active context reaches the configured context window:
  [`compact.rs`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/973806b1cb35792555bead994cb3ed94656eb171/codex-rs/core/tests/suite/compact.rs#L3003-L3128).

• Remove ToolsConfig from tool planning (#22835)

  ## Why
  
  `codex-tools` is meant to hold reusable tool primitives, but
  `ToolsConfig` had become a second copy of core runtime decisions instead
  of a small shared contract. It carried provider capabilities, auth/model
  gates, permission and environment state, web/search/image feature gates,
  multi-agent settings, and goal availability from core into `codex-tools`
  ([definition](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/22dd9ad3929253ed24d7ee4f10f238e95ab25f37/codex-rs/tools/src/tool_config.rs#L97),
  [stored on each
  `TurnContext`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/22dd9ad3929253ed24d7ee4f10f238e95ab25f37/codex-rs/core/src/session/turn_context.rs#L87)).
  Every session/context variant then had to build and mutate that snapshot
  before assembling tools.
  
  This PR removes that master object instead of renaming it. Tool planning
  now reads the live `TurnContext`, where `codex-core` already owns those
  decisions, while `codex-tools` keeps only reusable primitives and a
  generic `ToolSetBuilder`/`ToolSet` accumulator.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Removed `ToolsConfig` / `ToolsConfigParams` from `codex-tools`; the
  crate keeps the shared helpers that still belong there, including
  request-user-input mode selection, shell backend/type resolution,
  `UnifiedExecShellMode`, and `ToolEnvironmentMode`.
  - Replaced config-snapshot planning with `ToolRouter::from_turn_context`
  and a `spec_plan` pipeline over `CoreToolPlanContext`, deriving provider
  capabilities, auth gates, model support, feature gates, environment
  count, goal support, multi-agent options, web search, and image
  generation from the authoritative turn state.
  - Added generic `codex_tools::ToolSetBuilder` / `ToolSet`, plus the
  small core adapter needed to accumulate `CoreToolRuntime` values and
  hosted model specs.
  - Added the `tool_family::shell` registration module and moved
  shell/unified-exec/memory accounting call sites to read the narrow
  per-turn fields directly.
  - Narrowed `TurnContext` to the remaining explicit per-turn fields
  needed by planning: `available_models`, `unified_exec_shell_mode`, and
  `goal_tools_supported`.
  - Reworked MCP exposure and tool-search setup so deferred/direct MCP
  behavior is driven by the current turn rather than a precomputed config
  snapshot.
  - Replaced the large expected-spec fixture tests with focused
  behavior-level coverage for shell tools, environments, goal and
  agent-job gates, MCP direct/deferred exposure, tool search,
  request-plugin-install, code mode, multi-agent mode, hosted tools, and
  extension executor dispatch.

• feat: dedicated goal DB (#23300)

  ## Why
  
  Thread goals are moving toward extension-owned runtime behavior, but
  their persisted state was still stored in the shared state database.
  This makes the goal store harder to isolate and keeps future storage
  splits tied to ad hoc runtime plumbing.
  
  This PR gives goals their own SQLite database while keeping the existing
  `StateRuntime` entry point. The goal is to make this the pattern for
  adding more dedicated runtime databases later.
  
  This also reduce load on existing DB and reduce contention
  
  ## Limitation
  Thread preview from goal is not supported anymore. I'm looking into this
  [EDIT]: solved
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Added a dedicated `goals_1.sqlite` database with its own
  `goals_migrations` directory.
  - Moved `thread_goals` creation into the goals DB migration set.
  - Dropped the old `thread_goals` table from the main state DB with a
  normal state migration. There is intentionally no backfill for existing
  goal rows.
  - Changed `GoalStore` to be backed only by the goals DB pool.
  - Removed the old goal-write side effect that filled empty
  `threads.preview` values from the goal objective.
  - Added shared runtime DB path metadata so startup, telemetry, `codex
  doctor`, and repair handling can include future DBs without bespoke path
  lists.
  - Updated Bazel compile data so the new goals migration directory is
  available to `sqlx::migrate!`.

• Preserve context baselines for full-history agent forks (#23352)

  ## Why
  
  Full-history agent forks should continue from the same prompt prefix as
  the parent. Dropping the stored `TurnContext` baseline forced the child
  to rebuild startup context on its first turn, which can duplicate
  developer instructions and also loses the cache continuity that a
  full-history fork is supposed to preserve.
  
  Truncated forks are different: once we keep only the last N turns, the
  original prompt prefix is no longer intact, so the child must establish
  a fresh context baseline.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Preserve `RolloutItem::TurnContext` when forking with
  `SpawnAgentForkMode::FullHistory`, and keep dropping it for truncated
  forks:
  https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/4090717d94c1fc7f33c9bd122be133a0c5752052/codex-rs/core/src/agent/control.rs#L98-L126

  - Remove the special-case MultiAgentV2 usage-hint filtering path.
  Full-history fork now preserves the cached developer prefix instead of
  trying to reconstruct part of it.
  - Extend the fork coverage to assert both sides of the contract:
  full-history forks keep the parent reference baseline, while last-N
  forks rebuild context after truncation:
  https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/4090717d94c1fc7f33c9bd122be133a0c5752052/codex-rs/core/src/agent/control_tests.rs#L603-L759

• [5 of 7] Replace OverrideTurnContext with ThreadSettings (#22508)

  **Stack position:** [5 of 7]
  
  ## Summary
  
  This PR adds `Op::ThreadSettings`, a queued settings-only update
  mechanism for changing stored thread settings without starting a new
  turn. It also removes the legacy `Op::OverrideTurnContext` in the same
  layer, so reviewers can see the replacement and deletion together.
  
  ## Changes
  
  - Add `Op::ThreadSettings` for settings-only queued updates.
  - Emit `ThreadSettingsApplied` with the effective thread settings
  snapshot after core applies an update.
  - Route settings-only updates through the same submission queue as user
  input.
  - Migrate remaining `OverrideTurnContext` tests and callers to the
  queued `Op::ThreadSettings` path.
  - Delete `Op::OverrideTurnContext` from the core protocol and submission
  loop.

• [codex] Extract turn skill and plugin injections (#23396)

  ## Why
  
  `run_turn` had accumulated the turn-scoped skill, plugin, app, MCP,
  connector-selection, and analytics setup inline. That made the
  orchestration path harder to scan even though the actual turn item
  injection still needs to stay in `run_turn` so ordering is explicit.
  
  ## What changed
  
  This extracts that setup into `build_skills_and_plugins`, which returns
  the combined injection `ResponseItem`s and the explicitly enabled
  connector IDs. `run_turn` now keeps the required orchestration pieces:
  context update recording, user input handling, connector selection
  merge, and the explicit per-item `record_conversation_items` calls for
  injection items.
  
  The refactor keeps the change LOC-neutral in `core/src/session/turn.rs`
  and preserves the existing response-item based injection path.

• [1 of 7] Add thread settings to UserInput (#23080)

  **Stack position:** [1 of 7]
  
  ## Summary
  
  The first three PRs in this stack are a cleanup pass before the actual
  thread settings API work.
  
  Today, core has several overlapping "user input" ops: `UserInput`,
  `UserInputWithTurnContext`, and `UserTurn`. They differ mostly in how
  much next-turn state they carry, which makes the later queued thread
  settings update harder to reason about and review.
  
  This PR starts that cleanup by adding the shared
  `ThreadSettingsOverrides` payload and allowing `Op::UserInput` to carry
  it. Existing variants remain in place here, so this layer is mostly a
  behavior-preserving API shape change plus mechanical constructor
  updates.
  
  ## End State After PR3
  
  By the end of PR3, `Op::UserInput` is the only "user input" core op. It
  can carry optional thread settings overrides for callers that need to
  update stored defaults with a turn, while callers without updates use
  empty settings. `Op::UserInputWithTurnContext` and `Op::UserTurn` are
  deleted.
  
  ## End State After PR5
  
  By the end of PR5, core will have only two ops for this area:
  
  - `Op::UserInput` for user-input-bearing submissions.
  - `Op::ThreadSettings` for settings-only updates.

• [codex] Remove external websocket session resets (#23384)

  ## Why
  
  Compaction now installs replacement history inside the session, but the
  turn and compaction callers were still reaching into
  `ModelClientSession` to reset websocket transport state after that
  install. That made a transport-level reset part of the compaction API
  even though websocket incremental request selection already checks
  whether the next request is a strict extension of the previous one and
  falls back to a full `response.create` when it is not.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Removed the compaction-side calls to `reset_websocket_session` from
  `compact.rs` and `session/turn.rs`.
  - Simplified pre-sampling and mid-turn compaction helpers so they return
  `CodexResult<()>` instead of carrying a reset flag.
  - Made `ModelClientSession::reset_websocket_session` private to
  `client.rs`, leaving only the websocket timeout recovery path inside the
  client as a caller.

• [codex] Move pending input into input queue (#22728)

  ## Why
  
  Pending model input was split across `Session`, `TurnState`, and the
  agent mailbox. That made it easy for new paths to manage queued user
  input or mailbox delivery outside the intended ownership boundary.
  
  This PR consolidates the model-facing input lifecycle behind the session
  input queue so turn-local pending input, next-turn queued items, and
  mailbox delivery coordination are owned in one place.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Added `session/input_queue.rs` to own pending input queues and mailbox
  delivery coordination.
  - Removed the standalone `agent/mailbox.rs` channel wrapper and store
  mailbox items directly in the input queue.
  - Moved pending-input mutations off `TurnState`; `TurnState` now exposes
  the queue-owned storage directly for now.
  - Routed abort cleanup, mailbox delivery phase changes, next-turn queued
  items, and active-turn pending input through `InputQueue`.
  - Boxed stack-heavy agent resume/fork startup futures that the refactor
  pushed over the default test stack.
  - Updated session, task, goal, stream-event, and multi-agent call sites
  and tests to use the new queue ownership.

• [codex] Trim unused TurnContextItem fields (#22709)

  ## Why
  
  `TurnContextItem` is the durable baseline used to reconstruct context
  diffs across resume/fork. Most of the old persisted-only fields on it
  are no longer read, so keeping them in rollout snapshots adds schema
  surface and state that can drift without affecting reconstruction.
  
  `summary` is the exception: older Codex versions require it to
  deserialize `turn_context` records, so keep writing a default
  compatibility value until that schema surface can be removed safely.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Removed the unused persisted fields from `TurnContextItem`: trace ids,
  user/developer instructions, output schema, and truncation policy.
  - Kept `summary` with a compatibility comment and made
  `TurnContext::to_turn_context_item` write `ReasoningSummary::Auto`
  instead of live turn state.
  - Updated rollout/context reconstruction fixtures for the retained
  summary field.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-protocol --lib turn_context_item`
  - `cargo test -p codex-rollout
  resume_candidate_matches_cwd_reads_latest_turn_context`
  - `cargo test -p codex-state turn_context`

• goals: keep pause transitions explicit (#23088)

  ## Problem
  
  This addresses several user-reported cases where active goals were
  paused even though the user had not explicitly asked for that
  transition:
  
  - the guardian approval-review circuit breaker interrupted a turn and
  implicitly paused the goal
  - a shutdown in one app-server instance could pause a goal while a
  second instance was still actively running the same thread
  - steering-style interrupts could also pause the goal even though they
  are meant to redirect work, not stop the goal lifecycle
  
  The common problem was that core treated `TurnAbortReason::Interrupted`
  as an implicit request to transition the persisted goal to `paused`.
  That made unrelated interrupt paths mutate goal state as a side effect,
  and in the multi-app-server case it allowed stale process teardown to
  pause a live goal owned by another running client.
  
  After this change, transitioning a goal to `paused` is always an
  explicit action performed by a client or another intentional goal-state
  mutation. It is never an implicit transition triggered by generic
  interrupt handling.
  
  Refs #22884.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Remove the goal runtime path that paused active goals after
  interrupted task aborts.
  - Drop the now-unused abort reason from `GoalRuntimeEvent::TaskAborted`.
  - Update the focused regression coverage so an interrupted active goal
  still accounts usage but remains `active`.

• goal: pause continuation loops on usage limits and blockers (#23094)

  Addresses #22833, #22245, #23067
  
  ## Why
  `/goal` can keep synthesizing turns even when the next turn cannot make
  meaningful progress. Hard usage exhaustion can replay failing turns, and
  repeated permission or external-resource blockers can keep burning
  tokens while waiting for user or system intervention.
  
  ## What changed
  - Add resumable `blocked` and `usageLimited` goal states. As with
  `paused`, goal continuation stops with these states.
  - Move to `usageLimited` after usage-limit failures.
  - Allow the built-in `update_goal` tool to set `blocked` only under
  explicit repeated-impasse guidance. Updated goal continuation prompt to
  specify that agent should use `blocked` only when it has made at least
  three attempts to get past an impasse.
  
  Most of the files touched by this PR are because of the small app server
  protocol update.
  
  ## Validation
  
  I manually reproduced a number of situations where an agent can run into
  a true impasse and verified that it properly enters `blocked` state. I
  then resumed and verified that it once again entered `blocked` state
  several turns later if the impasse still exists.
  
  I also manually reproduced the usage-limit condition by creating a
  simulated responses API endpoint that returns 429 errors with the
  appropriate error message. Verified that the goal runtime properly moves
  the goal into `usageLimited` state and TUI UI updates appropriately.
  Verified that `/goal resume` resumes (and immediately goes back into
  `ussageLImited` state if appropriate).
  
  
  ## Follow-up PRs
  
  Small changes will be needed to the GUI clients to properly handle the
  two new states.

• Fix remote turn diff display roots (#23261)

  ## Why
  
  `TurnDiffTracker` computes a display root so turn diffs can be rendered
  repo-relative. For remote exec-server turns, the selected turn `cwd` may
  exist only inside the selected environment, but `run_turn` was
  discovering the git root through the local host filesystem. When that
  lookup failed, nested remote-session diffs fell back to the nested `cwd`
  and showed `/tmp/...`-prefixed paths instead of repo-relative paths.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Resolve the diff display root from the primary selected turn
  environment when one exists, using that environment's filesystem and
  `cwd`.
  - Add `codex_git_utils::get_git_repo_root_with_fs(...)` so git-root
  discovery can run against an `ExecutorFileSystem`, including remote
  environments.
  - Reuse that helper from `resolve_root_git_project_for_trust(...)` and
  add coverage for `.git` gitdir-pointer detection.
  
  ## Validation
  
  - Devbox Bazel: `//codex-rs/core:core-unit-tests
  --test_filter=get_git_repo_root_with_fs_detects_gitdir_pointer`
  - Devbox Docker-backed remote-env repro: `//codex-rs/core:core-all-test

• chore: isolate thread goal storage behind GoalStore (#23295)

  ## Why
  
  Thread goal persistence is being prepared for a dedicated storage
  boundary. Before that split, goal-specific reads, writes, accounting,
  and cleanup were exposed directly on `StateRuntime`, so core and
  app-server callsites stayed coupled to the full runtime instead of a
  goal-specific store.
  
  This PR introduces that boundary without changing the goal wire API or
  current persistence behavior. Callers now go through
  `StateRuntime::thread_goals()` and the new `GoalStore`, while
  `GoalStore` still uses the existing state DB pool underneath.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Added `GoalStore` in `state/src/runtime/goals.rs` and exposed it from
  `StateRuntime` via `thread_goals()`.
  - Moved thread-goal reads, writes, status updates, pause, delete, and
  usage accounting onto `GoalStore`.
  - Updated core session goal handling, app-server goal RPCs, resume
  snapshots, and goal tests to use the store boundary.
  - Kept thread deletion responsible for cascading goal cleanup by
  deleting the goal through the store only after a thread row is removed.
  
  ## Testing
  
  - Existing goal persistence, resume, and accounting tests were updated
  to exercise the new `GoalStore` access path.

• Make extension lifecycle hooks async (#23291)

  ## Why
  
  Extension lifecycle hooks sit on the host/extension boundary, but the
  current trait surface only allows synchronous callbacks. That forces
  extensions that need to seed, rehydrate, observe, or flush
  extension-owned state during thread and turn transitions to either block
  inside the callback or move async work into separate host plumbing.
  
  This PR makes those lifecycle callbacks awaitable so extension
  implementations can perform async work directly at the lifecycle point
  where the host already has the relevant session, thread, or turn stores
  available.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Makes `ThreadLifecycleContributor` and `TurnLifecycleContributor`
  async in `codex-extension-api`.
  - Awaits thread start/resume/stop and turn start/stop/abort lifecycle
  callbacks from `codex-core`.
  - Updates the guardian and memories extensions to implement the async
  lifecycle trait surface.
  - Updates the existing lifecycle tests to use async contributor
  implementations.
  - Adds `async-trait` to the crates that now expose or implement these
  async object-safe lifecycle traits.
  
  ## Testing
  
  - Existing `codex-core` lifecycle tests were updated to cover async
  implementations for thread stop and turn abort ordering.

• Make multi-agent v2 tool namespace configurable (#23147)

  ## Summary
  - Add `features.multi_agent_v2.tool_namespace` with config/schema
  validation for Responses-compatible namespace values.
  - Thread the resolved namespace into `ToolsConfig` for normal turns and

• test: construct permission profiles directly (#23030)

  ## Why
  
  `SandboxPolicy` is now a legacy compatibility shape, but several tests
  still built a `SandboxPolicy` only to immediately convert it into
  `PermissionProfile` for APIs that already accept canonical runtime
  permissions. Those detours make it harder to audit where legacy sandbox
  policy is still required, because boundary-only usages are mixed
  together with ordinary test setup.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Updated tests in `codex-core`, `codex-exec`, `codex-analytics`, and
  `codex-config` to construct `PermissionProfile` values directly when the
  code under test takes a permission profile.
  - Changed exec-policy, request-permissions, session, and sandbox test
  helpers to pass `PermissionProfile` through instead of converting from
  `SandboxPolicy` internally.
  - Left `SandboxPolicy` in place where tests are explicitly exercising
  legacy compatibility or request/response boundaries.
  
  ## Test Plan
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-analytics -p codex-config`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core --lib safety::tests`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core --lib exec_policy::tests::`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core --lib exec::tests`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core --lib guardian_review_session_config`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core --lib tools::network_approval::tests`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core --lib
  tools::runtimes::shell::unix_escalation::tests`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core --lib managed_network`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core --test all request_permissions::`
  - `cargo test -p codex-exec sandbox`

• Improve goal completion usage reporting (#22907)

  ## Why
  
  Goal completion follow-up turns currently receive a preformatted English
  usage sentence such as `time used: 2586 seconds`. That nudges the model
  to echo an awkward raw seconds count in the final reply, even though the
  tool result already exposes structured usage fields like
  `goal.timeUsedSeconds`, `goal.tokensUsed`, and `goal.tokenBudget`.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Replace the preformatted completion usage sentence with guidance to
  read the structured goal fields from the tool result.
  - Preserve token-budget reporting while allowing the model to phrase
  elapsed time in a concise, human-friendly way that fits the response
  language.
  - Update core coverage for both the generated completion guidance and
  the session flow that forwards it back to the model.
  
  ## Verification
  
  Previously, it would have output a final message indicating that it
  "worked for 303 seconds". Now it shows the following:

• core: set permission profiles from snapshots (#22920)

  ## Why
  
  #22891 moved the TUI turn-command path to pass `ActivePermissionProfile`
  instead of the full `PermissionProfile`, but the remaining
  config/session bridge still accepted the concrete `PermissionProfile`
  and active profile id as separate arguments. That shape made it too easy
  for future callers to update the concrete profile and active profile id
  out of sync.
  
  This PR makes the trusted session snapshot path pass one coherent value
  into `Permissions`, while keeping `requirements.toml` enforcement owned
  by the existing constrained permission state.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Added `PermissionProfileSnapshot` as the public snapshot value for
  trusted session/config synchronization.
  - Changed `Permissions::set_permission_profile_from_session_snapshot()`
  and `replace_permission_profile_from_session_snapshot()` to take a
  `PermissionProfileSnapshot`.
  - Updated the replacement path to derive its constrained
  `PermissionProfile` from the snapshot, so callers cannot pass a separate
  profile that disagrees with the snapshot.
  - Removed the internal tuple-style
  `PermissionProfileState::set_active_permission_profile()` mutation path.
  - Updated core session projection and TUI call sites to construct
  explicit legacy or active snapshots.
  - Documented the snapshot constructors so legacy use and id/profile
  mismatch hazards are called out at the API boundary.
  - Added a focused config test that verifies snapshot updates still
  respect existing permission constraints.
  
  ## How To Review
  
  1. Start with `codex-rs/core/src/config/resolved_permission_profile.rs`;
  `PermissionProfileSnapshot` is the public wrapper, while
  `ResolvedPermissionProfile` stays internal.
  2. Check `codex-rs/core/src/config/mod.rs` to confirm both
  session-snapshot setters validate through `PermissionProfileState` and
  no longer accept loose profile/id pairs.
  3. Skim `codex-rs/core/src/session/session.rs` for the session
  projection path; it now builds the snapshot before installing it.
  4. Skim the TUI changes as call-site migration from loose argument pairs
  to explicit snapshot construction.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-core
  permission_snapshot_setter_preserves_permission_constraints`
  - `cargo test -p codex-tui status_permissions_`
  - `cargo test -p codex-tui
  session_configured_preserves_profile_workspace_roots`
  - `just fix -p codex-core -p codex-tui`

• 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`.
