• Add remote_sandbox_config to our config requirements (#18763)

  ## Why
  
  Customers need finer-grained control over allowed sandbox modes based on
  the host Codex is running on. For example, they may want stricter
  sandbox limits on devboxes while keeping a different default elsewhere.
  
  Our current cloud requirements can target user/account groups, but they
  cannot vary sandbox requirements by host. That makes remote development
  environments awkward because the same top-level `allowed_sandbox_modes`
  has to apply everywhere.
  
  ## What
  
  Adds a new `remote_sandbox_config` section to `requirements.toml`:
  
  ```toml
  allowed_sandbox_modes = ["read-only"]
  
  [[remote_sandbox_config]]
  hostname_patterns = ["*.org"]
  allowed_sandbox_modes = ["read-only", "workspace-write"]
  
  [[remote_sandbox_config]]
  hostname_patterns = ["*.sh", "runner-*.ci"]
  allowed_sandbox_modes = ["read-only", "danger-full-access"]
  ```
  
  During requirements resolution, Codex resolves the local host name once,
  preferring the machine FQDN when available and falling back to the
  cleaned kernel hostname. This host classification is best effort rather
  than authenticated device proof.
  
  Each requirements source applies its first matching
  `remote_sandbox_config` entry before it is merged with other sources.
  The shared merge helper keeps that `apply_remote_sandbox_config` step
  paired with requirements merging so new requirements sources do not have
  to remember the extra call.
  
  That preserves source precedence: a lower-precedence requirements file
  with a matching `remote_sandbox_config` cannot override a
  higher-precedence source that already set `allowed_sandbox_modes`.
  
  This also wires the hostname-aware resolution through app-server,
  CLI/TUI config loading, config API reads, and config layer metadata so
  they all evaluate remote sandbox requirements consistently.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-config remote_sandbox_config`
  - `cargo test -p codex-config host_name`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core
  load_config_layers_applies_matching_remote_sandbox_config`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core
  system_remote_sandbox_config_keeps_cloud_sandbox_modes`
  - `cargo test -p codex-config`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core` unit tests passed; `tests/all.rs`
  integration matrix was intentionally stopped after the relevant focused
  tests passed
  - `just fix -p codex-config`
  - `just fix -p codex-core`
  - `cargo check -p codex-app-server`

• Fallback display names for TUI skill mentions (#18786)

  This updates TUI skill mentions to show a fallback label when a skill
  does not define a display name, so unnamed skills remain understandable
  in the picker without changing behavior for skills that already have
  one.

• 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`

• /statusline & /title - Shared preview values (#18435)

  This PR makes the `/statusline` and `/title` setup UIs share one
  preview-value source instead of each surface using its own examples.
  Both pickers now render consistent live values when available, and
  stable placeholders when they are not. It also resolves live preview
  values at the shared preview-item layer, so `/title` preview can use
  real runtime values for title-specific cases like status text, task
  progress, and project-name fallback behavior.
  
  - Adds a shared preview data model for status surfaces
  - Maps status-line items and terminal-title items onto that shared
  preview list
  - Feeds both setup views from the same chatwidget-derived preview data,
  with terminal-title-specific formatting applied before `/title` preview
  renders
  - Keeps project-root preview aligned with status-line behavior while
  project in /title keeps its title fallback/truncation behavior
  - Adds snapshot coverage for live-only, hardcoded-only, and mixed cases
  
  Test Steps
  - Open Codex TUI and launch `/statusline`.
  - Toggle and reorder items, then verify the preview uses current session
  values when possible, and placeholder values for missing values (ex: no
  thread ID).
  - Open `/title` and verify it shows the same normalized values,
  including live status/task-progress values when available.

• Warn when trusting Git subdirectories (#18602)

  Addresses #18505
  
  ## Summary
  
  When Codex is launched from a subdirectory of a Git repository, the
  onboarding trust prompt says it is trusting the current directory even
  though the persisted trust target is the repository root. That can make
  the scope of the trust decision unclear.
  
  This updates the TUI trust prompt to show a yellow note only when the
  current directory differs from the resolved trust target, explaining
  that trust applies to the repository root and displaying that root. It
  also removes the stale onboarding TODO now that the warning is
  implemented.

• Fix exec inheritance of root shared flags (#18630)

  Addresses #18113
  
  Problem: Shared flags provided before the exec subcommand were parsed by
  the root CLI but not inherited by the exec CLI, so exec sessions could
  run with stale or default sandbox and model configuration.
  
  Solution: Move shared TUI and exec flags into a common option block and
  merge root selections into exec before dispatch, while preserving exec's
  global subcommand flag behavior.

• Refactor TUI app module into submodules (#18753)

  ## Why
  
  The TUI app module had grown past the 512K source-file cap enforced by
  CI/CD. This keeps the app entry point below that limit while preserving
  the existing runtime behavior and test surface.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Kept the top-level `App` state and run-loop wiring in
  `tui/src/app.rs`.
  - Split app responsibilities into focused private submodules under
  `tui/src/app/`, covering event dispatch, thread routing, session
  lifecycle, config persistence, background requests, startup prompts,
  input, history UI, platform actions, and thread event buffering.
  - Moved the existing app-level tests into `tui/src/app/tests.rs` and
  reused the existing snapshot location rather than adding new tests or
  snapshots.
  - Added module header comments for `app.rs` and the new submodules.
  
  ## Follow-up
  
  A future cleanup can move narrow unit tests from `tui/src/app/tests.rs`
  into the specific app submodules they exercise. This PR keeps the
  existing app-level tests together so the refactor stays focused on the
  source-file split.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-tui --lib
  app::tests::agent_picker_item_name_snapshot`
  - `cargo test -p codex-tui --lib app::tests::clear_ui`
  - `cargo test -p codex-tui --lib
  app::tests::ctrl_l_clear_ui_after_long_transcript_reuses_clear_header_snapshot`
  - `just fix -p codex-tui`
  
  Full `cargo test -p codex-tui` still fails on model-catalog drift
  unrelated to this refactor, including stale
  `gpt-5.3-codex`/`gpt-5.1-codex` snapshot and migration expectations now
  resolving to `gpt-5.4`.

• Add realtime silence tool (#18635)

  ## Summary
  
  Adds a second realtime v2 function tool, `remain_silent`, so the
  realtime model has an explicit non-speaking action when the
  collaboration mode or latest context says it should not answer aloud.
  This is stacked on #18597.
  
  ## Design
  
  - Advertise `remain_silent` alongside `background_agent` in realtime v2
  conversational sessions.
  - Parse `remain_silent` function calls into a typed
  `RealtimeEvent::NoopRequested` event.
  - Have core answer that function call with an empty
  `function_call_output` and deliberately avoid `response.create`, so no
  follow-up realtime response is requested.
  - Keep the event hidden from app-server/TUI surfaces; it is operational
  plumbing, not user-visible conversation content.

• Use app server metadata for fork parent titles (#18632)

  ## Problem
  The TUI resolved fork parent titles from local CODEX_HOME metadata,
  which could show missing or stale titles when app-server metadata is
  authoritative.
  
  This is a lingering bug left over from the migration of the TUI to the
  app-server interface. I found it when I asked Codex to review all places
  where the TUI code was still directly accessing the local CODEX_HOME.
  
  ## Solution
  Route fork parent title metadata through the app-server session state
  and render only that supplied title, with focused snapshot coverage for
  stale local metadata.
  
  ## Testing
  I manually tested by renaming a thread then forking it and confirming
  that the "forked from" message indicated the parent thread's name.

• fix(tui): keep /copy aligned with rollback (#18739)

  ## Why
  
  Fixes #18718.
  
  After rewinding a thread, `/copy` could still copy the latest assistant
  response from before the rewind. The transcript cells were rolled back,
  but the copy source was a single `last_agent_markdown` cache that was
  not synchronized with backtracking, so the visible conversation and
  copied content could diverge.
  
  ## What changed
  
  `ChatWidget` now keeps a bounded copy history for the most recent 32
  assistant responses, keyed by the visible user-turn count. When local
  rollback trims transcript cells, the copy cache is trimmed to the same
  surviving user-turn count so `/copy` uses the latest visible assistant
  response.
  
  If the user rewinds past the retained copy window, `/copy` now reports:
  
  ```text
  Cannot copy that response after rewinding. Only the most recent 32 responses are available to /copy.
  ```
  
  The change also adds coverage for copying the latest surviving response
  after rollback and for the over-limit rewind message.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - Manually resumed a synthetic 35-turn session, rewound within the
  retained window, and verified `/copy` copied the surviving response.
  - Manually rewound past the retained window and verified `/copy` showed
  the 32-response limit message.
  - `cargo test -p codex-tui slash_copy`
  - `just fix -p codex-tui`
  - `cargo insta pending-snapshots`
  
  Note: `cargo test -p codex-tui` currently fails on unrelated model
  catalog and snapshot drift around the default model changing to
  `gpt-5.4`; the focused `/copy` tests pass after fixing the new test
  setup.

• Fix stale model test fixtures (#18719)

  Fixes stale test fixtures left after the active bundled model catalog
  updates in #18586 and #18388. Those changes made `gpt-5.4` the current
  default and removed several older hardcoded slugs, which left Windows
  Bazel shards failing TUI and config tests.
  
  What changed:
  - Refresh TUI model migration, availability NUX, plan-mode, status, and
  snapshot fixtures to use active bundled model slugs.
  - Update the config edit test expectation for the TOML-quoted
  `"gpt-5.2"` migration key.
  - Move the model catalog tests into
  `codex-rs/tui/src/app/tests/model_catalog.rs` so touching them does not
  trip the blob-size policy for `app.rs`.
  
  Verification:
  - CI Bazel/lint checks are expected to cover the affected test shards.

• Surface TUI skills refresh failures (#18627)

  ## Why
  
  `skills/list` refreshes are best-effort metadata updates. If one fails
  during startup or thread switching, the TUI should keep running and show
  enough detail to diagnose the app-server failure instead of leaving the
  user with only a log entry.
  
  This addresses the recoverability and observability issue reported in
  #16914.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Preserve the full startup `skills/list` error chain before sending it
  back through the app event queue.
  - Surface failed skills refreshes as recoverable TUI error messages
  while still logging the warning.
  
  This is related to the recent bug fix from [PR
  #18370](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18370).

• Remove simple TUI legacy_core reexports (#18631)

  ## Problem
  The TUI still imported path utilities and config-loader symbols through
  app-server-client's legacy_core facade even though those APIs already
  exist in utility/config crates. This is part of our ongoing effort to
  whittle away at these old dependencies.
  
  ## Solution
  Rewire imports to avoid the TUI directly importing from the core crate
  and instead import from common lower-level crates. This PR doesn't
  include any functional changes; it's just a simple rewiring.

• 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.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-protocol
  root_write_with_read_only_child_is_not_full_disk_write -- --nocapture`
  - `cargo test -p codex-sandboxing permission -- --nocapture`

• Surface parent thread status in side conversations (#18591)

  ## Summary
  
  Side conversations can hide important state changes from the parent
  conversation while the user is focused on the side thread. In
  particular, the parent may finish, fail, need user input, or require an
  approval while the side conversation remains visible. Users need a
  lightweight signal for those states, but parent approval overlays should
  not interrupt the side conversation itself.
  
  This change adds parent-conversation status to the side conversation
  context label and defers parent interactive overlays while side mode is
  active. When the user exits side mode, pending parent approvals and
  input requests are restored in the main thread. The pending approval
  footer avoids duplicating the same parent approval status, and replayed
  notice cells are filtered when restoring a pending interactive request
  so tips or warnings do not crowd out the approval prompt.
  
  The change is contained to the TUI side-conversation and thread replay
  paths.

• Use app server thread names in TUI picker (#18633)

  ## Problem
  
  The TUI resume/fork picker was backfilling thread names from local
  rollout indexes. This was left over from before the TUI was moved to the
  app server. It should be using app-server APIs because the TUI might be
  connected to a remote connection.
  
  This bug wasn't (yet) reported by a user. I found it by asking Codex to
  review places in the TUI code where it was still directly accessing the
  CODEX_HOME directory rather than going through app-server APIs.
  
  ## Solution
  
  The resume picker and session lookups should use app-server thread APIs
  only. Remove legacy rollout name/list backfills, and avoid local name
  reads in fork history.
  
  ## Testing
  
  I manually tested `codex resume` and `codex resume --all` to look for
  functional or performance regressions in the resume picker.

• Add verbose diagnostics for /mcp (#18610)

  Fixes #18539.
  
  ## Summary
  The recent `/mcp` performance work kept the default command fast by
  avoiding resource and resource-template inventory probes, but it also
  removed useful diagnostics for users trying to confirm MCP server state.
  
  This keeps bare `/mcp` on the fast tools/auth path and adds `/mcp
  verbose` for the slower diagnostic view. Verbose mode requests full MCP
  server status from the app-server and restores status, resources, and
  resource templates in the TUI output.
  
  ## Testing
  In addition to running automation, I manually tested the feature to
  confirm that it works.

• TUI: remove simple legacy_core re-exports (#18605)

  ## Summary
  
  The TUI still imported several symbols through the transitional
  app-server-client `legacy_core` facade even though those symbols are
  already owned by smaller crates. This PR narrows that facade by rewiring
  those imports directly to their owner crates.
  
  ## Changes
  
  No functional changes, just import rewiring. This is part of our ongoing
  effort to whittle away at the `legacy_core` namespace, which represents
  all of the remaining symbols that the TUI imports from the core.

• Use thread IDs in TUI resume hints (#18440)

  ## Summary
  
  Fixes #18313.
  
  Recent TUI resume breadcrumbs could print a thread title instead of the
  stable thread UUID. For sessions whose title was auto-derived from the
  first prompt, that made the suggested codex resume command look like it
  should resume a long prompt rather than the session ID.
  
  This updates the TUI and CLI post-exit resume hints, plus the in-session
  summary shown when switching/forking threads, to always use the stable
  thread ID for these recovery breadcrumbs. Explicit name-based resume
  support remains available elsewhere.

  Fast mode TUI copy currently names a specific plan-usage multiplier in

• Avoid redundant memory enable notice (#18580)

  ## Summary
  
  Fixes #18554.
  
  The `/experimental` menu can submit the full experimental feature state
  even when the user presses Enter without toggling anything. Previously,
  Codex showed `Memories will be enabled in the next session.` whenever
  the submitted updates included `Feature::MemoryTool = true`, so sessions
  where Memories were already enabled could show a redundant warning on a
  no-op save.
  
  This change records whether `Feature::MemoryTool` was enabled before
  applying feature updates and only emits the next-session notice when
  Memories actually transitions from disabled to enabled.

• Add /side conversations (#18190)

  The TUI supports long-running turns and agent threads, but quick side
  questions have required interrupting the main flow or manually
  forking/navigating threads. This PR adds a guarded `/side` flow so users
  can ask brief side-conversation questions in an ephemeral fork while
  keeping the primary thread focused. This also helps address the feature
  request in #18125.
  
  The implementation creates one side conversation at a time, lets `/side`
  open either an empty side thread or immediately submit `/side
  <question>`, and returns to the parent with Esc or Ctrl+C. Side
  conversations get hidden developer guardrails that treat inherited
  history as reference-only and steer the model away from workspace

• Queue slash and shell prompts in the TUI (#18542)

  ## Why
  
  Users have asked to queue follow-up slash commands while a task is
  running, including in #14081, #14588, #14286, and #13779. The previous
  TUI behavior validated slash commands immediately, so commands that are
  only meaningful once the current turn is idle could not be queued
  consistently.
  
  The queue should preserve what the user typed and defer command parsing
  until the item is actually dispatched. This also gives `/fast`, `/review
  ...`, `/rename ...`, `/model`, `/permissions`, and similar slash
  workflows the same FIFO behavior as plain queued prompts.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Added a queued-input action enum so queued items can be dispatched as
  plain prompts, slash commands, or user shell commands.
  - Changed `Tab` queueing to accept slash-led prompts without validating
  them up front, then parse and dispatch them when dequeued.
  - Added `!` shell-command queueing for `Tab` while a task is running,
  while preserving existing `Enter` behavior for immediate shell
  execution.
  - Moved queued slash dispatch through shared slash-command parsing so
  inline commands, unavailable commands, unknown commands, and local
  config commands report at dequeue time.
  - Continued queue draining after local-only actions and after slash menu
  cancellation or selection when no task is running.
  - Preserved slash-popup completion behavior so `/mo<Tab>` completes to
  `/model ` instead of queueing the prefix.
  - Updated pending-input preview snapshots to show queued follow-up
  inputs.
  
  ## Verification
  
  I did a bunch of manual validation (and found and fixed a few bugs along
  the way).

• feat(tui): show context used in plan implementation prompt (#18573)

  # Summary
  
  When a user finishes planning, the TUI asks whether to implement in the
  current conversation or start fresh with the approved plan. The
  clear-context choice is easier to evaluate when the prompt shows how
  much context has already been used, because the user can see when
  carrying the full prior conversation is likely to be less useful than
  preserving only the plan.
  
  <img width="1612" height="1312" alt="image"
  src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/694bcf87-8be5-4e88-a412-e562af62d5f7"
  />
      
  This PR adds that context signal directly to the clear-context option
  while keeping the copy compact enough for the Plan-mode selection popup.
  
  # What Changed
  
  - Compute an optional context-usage label when opening the plan
  implementation prompt.
  - Show the label only on `Yes, clear context and implement`, where it
  informs the cleanup decision.
  - Prefer a percentage-used label when context-window information is
  available, with a compact token-used fallback when only token totals are
  known.
  - Preserve the original option description when usage is unknown or
  effectively zero.
  - Add rustdoc comments around the prompt-copy boundary so future changes
  keep the context label formatting and selection rendering
  responsibilities clear.
  
  # Testing
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-tui plan_implementation`
  
  # Notes
  
  The footer continues to show context remaining as ambient status. The
  implementation prompt intentionally shows context used because the user
  is choosing whether to clean up the current thread before
  implementation.

• fix: trust-gate project hooks and exec policies (#14718)

  ## Summary
  - trust-gate project `.codex` layers consistently, including repos that
  have `.codex/hooks.json` or `.codex/execpolicy/*.rules` but no
  `.codex/config.toml`
  - keep disabled project layers in the config stack so nested trusted
  project layers still resolve correctly, while preventing hooks and exec
  policies from loading until the project is trusted
  - update app-server/TUI onboarding copy to make the trust boundary
  explicit and add regressions for loader, hooks, exec-policy, and
  onboarding coverage
  
  ## Security
  Before this change, an untrusted repo could auto-load project hooks or
  exec policies from `.codex/` as long as `config.toml` was absent. This
  makes trust the single gate for project-local config, hooks, and exec
  policies.

• feat: Add remote plugin fields to plugin API (#17277)

  ## Summary
  Update the plugin API for the new remote plugin model.
  
  The mental model is no longer “keep local plugin state in sync with
  remote.” Instead, local and remote plugins are becoming separate
  sources. Remote catalog entries can be shown directly from the remote
  API before installation; after installation they are still downloaded
  into the local cache for execution, but remote installed state will come
  from the API and be held in memory rather than being read from config.
  
  • ## API changes
  - Remove `forceRemoteSync` from `plugin/list`, `plugin/install`, and
  `plugin/uninstall`.
    - Remove `remoteSyncError` from `plugin/list`.
    - Add remote-capable metadata to `plugin/list` / `plugin/read`:
      - nullable `marketplaces[].path`
      - `source: { type: "remote", downloadUrl }`
      - URL asset fields alongside local path fields:
    `composerIconUrl`, `logoUrl`, `screenshotUrls`
    - Make `plugin/read` and `plugin/install` source-compatible:
      - `marketplacePath?: AbsolutePathBuf | null`
      - `remoteMarketplaceName?: string | null`
      - exactly one source is required at runtime

• bazel: use native rust test sharding (#18082)

  ## Why
  
  The large Rust test suites are slow and include some of our flakiest
  tests, so we want to run them with Bazel native sharding while keeping
  shard membership stable between runs.
  
  This is the simpler follow-up to the explicit-label experiment in
  #17998. Since #18397 upgraded Codex to `rules_rs` `0.0.58`, which
  includes the stable test-name hashing support from
  hermeticbuild/rules_rust#14, this PR only needs to wire Codex's Bazel
  macros into that support.
  
  Using native sharding preserves BuildBuddy's sharded-test UI and Bazel's
  per-shard test action caching. Using stable name hashing avoids
  reshuffling every test when one test is added or removed.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  `codex_rust_crate` now accepts `test_shard_counts` and applies the right
  Bazel/rules_rust attributes to generated unit and integration test
  rules. Matched tests are also marked `flaky = True`, giving them Bazel's
  default three attempts.
  
  This PR shards these labels 8 ways:
  
  ```text
  //codex-rs/core:core-all-test
  //codex-rs/core:core-unit-tests
  //codex-rs/app-server:app-server-all-test
  //codex-rs/app-server:app-server-unit-tests
  //codex-rs/tui:tui-unit-tests
  ```
  
  ## Verification
  
  `bazel query --output=build` over the selected public labels and their
  inner unit-test binaries confirmed the expected `shard_count = 8`,
  `flaky = True`, and `experimental_enable_sharding = True` attributes.
  
  Also verified that we see the shards as expected in BuildBuddy so they
  can be analyzed independently.

• perf(tui): defer startup skills refresh (#18370)

  # Summary
  
  This removes startup `skills/list` from the critical path to first
  input. In release measurements, median startup-to-input time improved
  from `307.5 ms` to `191.0 ms` across 30 measured runs with 5 warmups.
  
  # Background
  
  Startup currently waits for a forced `skills/list` app-server request
  before scheduling the first usable TUI frame. That makes skill metadata
  freshness part of the process-launch-to-input path, even though the
  prompt can safely accept normal input before skill metadata has finished
  loading.
  
  I measured startup from process launch until the TUI reports that the
  user can type. The measurement harness watched the startup measurement
  record, killed Codex after a successful sample, and enforced a timeout
  so repeated runs would not leave TUI processes behind. The debug runs
  had enough outliers that I used median as the primary signal and ran a
  baseline self-compare to understand the noise floor.
  
  # Why skills/list
  
  The `skills/list` cut was the best practical optimization because it
  improved startup without changing the important readiness contract: when
  the prompt is shown, it is still backed by an active session. Only
  enrichment data arrives later.
  
  | Candidate | Result | Decision |
  | --- | --- | --- |
  | Defer startup `skills/list` | Debug median improved from `524.0 ms` to
  `348.0 ms`; release median improved from `307.5 ms` to `191.0 ms`. |
  Keep |
  | Defer fresh `thread/start` | Debug median improved from `494.0 ms` to
  `256.0 ms`, but the prompt could appear before an active thread was
  attached. | Reject as too risky for this PR |
  | Avoid forced skills config reload | Debug median moved from `509.0 ms`
  to `512.0 ms`. | Reject as neutral |
  | Skip fresh history metadata | Debug median moved from `496.5 ms` to
  `531.5 ms`. | Reject as regression/noise |
  | Defer app-server startup | Not implemented because it would only
  permit a loading frame unless the TUI gained a deliberate pre-server
  state. | Out of scope |
  
  # Implementation
  
  `App::refresh_startup_skills` now clones the app-server request handle,
  spawns a background task, and issues the same forced `skills/list`
  request after the first frame is scheduled. When the request completes,
  the task sends `AppEvent::SkillsListLoaded` back through the normal app
  event queue.
  
  The existing skills response handling still converts the app-server
  response, updates the chat widget, and emits invalid `SKILL.md`
  warnings. Explicit user-initiated skills refreshes still use the
  existing synchronous app command path, so callers that intentionally
  requested fresh skill state do not race ahead of their own refresh.
  
  # Tradeoffs
  
  The main tradeoff is a narrow theoretical race at startup: skill mention
  completion depends on a background `skills/list` response, so it could
  briefly show stale or empty metadata if opened before that response
  arrives. In manual testing, pressing `$` as soon as possible after
  launch still showed populated skill metadata, so this risk appears
  minimal in normal use. Plain input remains available immediately, and
  the UI updates through the existing skills response path once the
  refresh completes.
  
  This PR does not change how skills are discovered, cached,
  force-reloaded, displayed, enabled, or warned about. It only changes
  when the startup refresh is allowed to complete relative to the first
  usable TUI frame.

• Add sorting/backwardsCursor to thread/list and new thread/turns/list api (#17305)

  To improve performance of UI loads from the app, add two main
  improvements:
  1. The `thread/list` api now gets a `sortDirection` request field and a
  `backwardsCursor` to the response, which lets you paginate forwards and
  backwards from a window. This lets you fetch the first few items to
  display immediately while you paginate to fill in history, then can
  paginate "backwards" on future loads to catch up with any changes since
  the last UI load without a full reload of the entire data set.
  2. Added a new `thread/turns/list` api which also has sortDirection and
  backwardsCursor for the same behavior as `thread/list`, allowing you the
  same small-fetch for immediate display followed by background fill-in
  and resync catchup.

• feat(tui): add clear-context plan implementation (#17499)

  ## TL;DR
  
  - Adds a second Plan Mode handoff: implement the approved plan after
  clearing context.
  - Keeps the existing same-thread `Yes, implement this plan` action
  unchanged.
  - Reuses the `/clear` thread-start path and submits the approved plan as
  the fresh thread's first prompt.
  - Covers the new popup option, event plumbing, initial-message behavior,
  and disabled states in TUI tests.
  
  ## Problem
  
  Plan Mode already asks whether to implement an approved plan, but the
  only affirmative path continues in the same thread. That is useful when
  the planning conversation itself is still valuable, but it does not
  support the workflow where exploratory planning context is discarded and
  implementation starts from the final approved plan as the only
  model-visible handoff.
  
  <img width="1253" height="869" alt="image"
  src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/90023d75-c330-4919-bed8-518671c3474b"
  />
  
  ## Mental model
  
  There are now two implementation choices after a proposed plan. The
  existing choice, `Yes, implement this plan`, is unchanged: it switches
  to Default mode and submits `Implement the plan.` in the current thread.
  The new choice, `Yes, clear context and implement`, treats the proposed
  plan as a handoff artifact. It clears the UI/session context through the
  same thread-start source used by `/clear`, then submits an initial
  prompt containing the approved plan after the fresh thread is
  configured.
  
  The important distinction is that the new path is not compaction. The
  model receives a deliberate implementation prompt built from the
  approved plan markdown, not a summary of the previous planning
  transcript. Both implementation choices require the Default
  collaboration preset to be available, so the popup does not offer a
  coding handoff when the fresh thread would fall back to another mode.
  
  ## Non-goals
  
  This change does not alter `/clear`, `/compact`, or the existing
  same-context Plan Mode implementation option. It does not add protocol
  surface area or app-server schema changes. It also does not carry the
  previous transcript path or a generated planning summary into the new
  model context.
  
  ## Tradeoffs
  
  The fresh-context option relies on the approved plan being sufficiently
  complete. That matches the Plan Mode contract, but it means vague plans
  will produce weaker implementation starts than a compacted transcript
  would. The upside is that rejected ideas, exploratory dead ends, and
  planning corrections do not leak into the implementation turn.
  
  The current implementation stores the latest proposed plan in
  `ChatWidget` rather than deriving it from history cells at selection
  time. This keeps the popup action simple and deterministic, but it makes
  the cache lifecycle important: it must be reset when a new task starts
  so an old plan cannot be submitted later.
  
  ## Architecture
  
  The TUI stores the most recent completed proposed-plan markdown when a
  plan item completes. The Plan Mode approval popup uses that cache to
  enable the fresh-context option and to build a first-turn prompt that
  instructs the model to implement the approved plan in a fresh context.
  
  Selecting the new option emits a TUI-internal
  `ClearUiAndSubmitUserMessage` event. `App` handles that event by reusing
  the existing clear flow: clear terminal state, reset app UI state, start
  a new app-server thread with `ThreadStartSource::Clear`, and attach a
  replacement `ChatWidget` with an initial user message. The existing
  initial-message suppression in `enqueue_primary_thread_session` ensures
  the prompt is submitted only after the new session is configured and any
  startup replay is rendered.
  
  ## Observability
  
  The previous thread remains resumable through the existing clear-session
  summary hint. There is no new telemetry or protocol event for this path,
  so debugging should start at the TUI event boundary: confirm the popup
  emitted `ClearUiAndSubmitUserMessage`, confirm the app-server thread
  start used `ThreadStartSource::Clear`, then confirm the fresh widget
  submitted the initial user message after `SessionConfigured`.
  
  ## Tests
  
  The Plan Mode popup snapshots cover the new option and preserve the
  original option as the first/default action. Unit coverage verifies the
  original same-context option still emits `SubmitUserMessageWithMode`,
  the new option emits `ClearUiAndSubmitUserMessage` with the approved
  plan embedded verbatim, and the clear-context option is disabled when
  Default mode is unavailable or no approved plan exists. The broader
  `codex-tui` test package passes with the updated fresh-thread
  initial-message plumbing.

• feat(config): support managed deny-read requirements (#17740)

  ## Summary
  - adds managed requirements support for deny-read filesystem entries
  - constrains config layers so managed deny-read requirements cannot be
  widened by user-controlled config
  - surfaces managed deny-read requirements through debug/config plumbing
  
  This PR lets managed requirements inject deny-read filesystem
  constraints into the effective filesystem sandbox policy.
  User-controlled config can still choose the surrounding permission
  profile, but it cannot remove or weaken the managed deny-read entries.
  
  ## Managed deny-read shape
  A managed requirements file can declare exact paths and glob patterns
  under `[permissions.filesystem]`:
  
  ```toml
  # /etc/codex/requirements.toml
  [permissions.filesystem]
  deny_read = [
    "/Users/alice/.gitconfig",
    "/Users/alice/.ssh",
    "./managed-private/**/*.env",
  ]
  ```
  
  Those entries are compiled into the effective filesystem policy as
  `access = none` rules, equivalent in shape to filesystem permission
  entries like:
  
  ```toml
  [permissions.workspace.filesystem]
  "/Users/alice/.gitconfig" = "none"
  "/Users/alice/.ssh" = "none"
  "/absolute/path/to/managed-private/**/*.env" = "none"
  ```
  
  The important difference is that the managed entries come from
  requirements, so lower-precedence user config cannot remove them or make
  those paths readable again.
  
  Relative managed `deny_read` entries are resolved relative to the
  directory containing the managed requirements file. Glob entries keep
  their glob suffix after the non-glob prefix is normalized.
  
  ## Runtime behavior
  - Managed `deny_read` entries are appended to the effective
  `FileSystemSandboxPolicy` after the selected permission profile is
  resolved.
  - Exact paths become `FileSystemPath::Path { access: None }`; glob
  patterns become `FileSystemPath::GlobPattern { access: None }`.
  - When managed deny-read entries are present, `sandbox_mode` is
  constrained to `read-only` or `workspace-write`; `danger-full-access`
  and `external-sandbox` cannot silently bypass the managed read-deny
  policy.
  - On Windows, the managed deny-read policy is enforced for direct file
  tools, but shell subprocess reads are not sandboxed yet, so startup
  emits a warning for that platform.
  - `/debug-config` shows the effective managed requirement as
  `permissions.filesystem.deny_read` with its source.

• fix(tui): use BEL for terminal title updates (#18261)

  ## Summary
  
  Fixes #18160.
  
  iTerm2 can append the current foreground process to tab titles, and
  Codex's terminal-title updates were causing that decoration to appear as
  `(codex")` with a stray trailing quote. Codex was writing OSC 0 title
  sequences terminated with ST (`ESC \`). Some terminal title integrations
  appear to accept that title update but still expose the ST terminator in
  their own process/title decoration.
  
  ## Changes
  
  - Update `codex-rs/tui/src/terminal_title.rs` to terminate OSC 0 title
  updates with BEL instead of ST.
  - Update the focused terminal-title encoding test to assert the
  BEL-terminated sequence.
  
  ## Compatibility
  
  This should be low risk: the title payload and update timing are
  unchanged, and BEL is the form already emitted by
  `crossterm::terminal::SetTitle` in the crossterm version used by this
  repository. BEL is also the widely supported xterm-family title
  terminator used by common terminals and multiplexers. The main
  theoretical risk would be a very old or unusual terminal that accepted
  only ST and not BEL for OSC title termination, but that is unlikely
  compared with the observed iTerm2 issue.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-tui terminal_title`
  - `cargo test -p codex-tui`

• Support Ctrl+P/Ctrl+N in resume picker (#18267)

  Fixes #18179.
  
  ## Why
  The fullscreen `/resume` picker accepted Up/Down navigation but ignored
  Ctrl+P/Ctrl+N, which made it inconsistent with other TUI selection flows
  such as `ListSelectionView`-backed pickers and composer navigation.
  
  ## What Changed
  Updated `codex-rs/tui/src/resume_picker.rs` so the resume picker treats
  Ctrl+P/Ctrl+N as aliases for Up/Down, including the raw `^P`/`^N`
  control-character events some terminals emit without a CONTROL modifier.

• Add PermissionRequest hooks support (#17563)

  ## Why
  
  We need `PermissionRequest` hook support!
  
  Also addresses:
  - https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/16301
  - run a script on Hook to do things like play a sound to draw attention
  but actually no-op so user can still approve
  - can omit the `decision` object from output or just have the script
  exit 0 and print nothing
  - https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/15311
    - let the script approve/deny on its own
    - external UI what will run on Hook and relay decision back to codex
  
  
  ## Reviewer Note
  
  There's a lot of plumbing for the new hook, key files to review are:
  - New hook added in `codex-rs/hooks/src/events/permission_request.rs`
  - Wiring for network approvals
  `codex-rs/core/src/tools/network_approval.rs`
  - Wiring for tool orchestrator `codex-rs/core/src/tools/orchestrator.rs`
  - Wiring for execve
  `codex-rs/core/src/tools/runtimes/shell/unix_escalation.rs`
  
  ## What
  
  - Wires shell, unified exec, and network approval prompts into the
  `PermissionRequest` hook flow.
  - Lets hooks allow or deny approval prompts; quiet or invalid hooks fall
  back to the normal approval path.
  - Uses `tool_input.description` for user-facing context when it helps:
    - shell / `exec_command`: the request justification, when present
    - network approvals: `network-access <domain>`
  - Uses `tool_name: Bash` for shell, unified exec, and network approval
  permission-request hooks.
  - For network approvals, passes the originating command in
  `tool_input.command` when there is a single owning call; otherwise falls
  back to the synthetic `network-access ...` command.

  ## Follow-ups
  
  - Implement the `PermissionRequest` semantics for `updatedInput`,
  `updatedPermissions`, `interrupt`, and suggestions /
  `permission_suggestions`
  - Add `PermissionRequest` support for the `request_permissions` tool

• Sync local plugin imports, async remote imports, refresh caches after… (#18246)

  … import
  
  ## Why
  
  `externalAgentConfig/import` used to spawn plugin imports in the
  background and return immediately. That meant local marketplace imports
  could still be in flight when the caller refreshed plugin state, so
  newly imported plugins would not show up right away.
  
  This change makes local marketplace imports complete before the RPC
  returns, while keeping remote marketplace imports asynchronous so we do
  not block on remote fetches.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - split plugin migration details into local and remote marketplace
  imports based on the external config source
  - import local marketplaces synchronously during
  `externalAgentConfig/import`
  - return pending remote plugin imports to the app-server so it can
  finish them in the background
  - clear the plugin and skills caches before responding to plugin
  imports, and again after background remote imports complete, so the next
  `plugin/list` reloads fresh state
  - keep marketplace source parsing encapsulated behind
  `is_local_marketplace_source(...)` instead of re-exporting the internal
  enum
  - add core and app-server coverage for the synchronous local import path
  and the pending remote import path
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core` (currently fails an existing unrelated
  test:
  `config_loader::tests::cli_override_can_update_project_local_mcp_server_when_project_is_trusted`)
  - `cargo test` (currently fails existing `codex-app-server` integration
  tests in MCP/skills/thread-start areas, plus the unrelated `codex-core`
  failure above)

• [codex] Revoke ChatGPT tokens on logout (#17825)

  ## Summary
  
  This changes Codex logout so managed ChatGPT auth is revoked against
  AuthAPI before local auth state is removed. CLI logout, TUI `/logout`,
  and the app-server account logout path now use the token-revoking logout
  flow instead of only deleting `auth.json` / credential store state.
  
  ## Root Cause
  
  Logout previously cleared only local auth storage. That removed Codex's
  local credentials but did not ask the backend to invalidate the
  refresh/access token state associated with a managed ChatGPT login.
  
  ## Behavior
  
  For managed ChatGPT auth, logout sends the stored refresh token to
  `https://auth.openai.com/oauth/revoke` with `token_type_hint:
  refresh_token` and the Codex OAuth client id, then deletes all local
  auth stores after revocation succeeds. If only an access token is
  available, it falls back to revoking that access token. API key auth and
  externally supplied `chatgptAuthTokens` are still only cleared locally
  because Codex does not own a refresh token for those modes.
  
  Revocation failures are fail-closed: if Codex cannot load stored auth or
  the backend revoke call fails, logout returns an error and leaves local
  auth in place so the user can retry instead of silently clearing local
  state while backend tokens remain valid.
  
  ## Validation
  ran local version of `codex-cli` with staging overrides/harness for auth
  
  ran `codex login` then `codex logout`:
  
  saw auth.json clear and  backend revocation endpoints were called
  
  ```
  POST /oauth/revoke
  status: 200
  
  revoking access token
  should clear auth session
  clearing auth session due to token revocation
  successfully revoked session and access token
  CANONICAL-API-LINE Response: status='200' method='POST' path='/oauth/revoke
  ```

• Stream apply_patch changes (#17862)

  Adds new events for streaming apply_patch changes from responses api.
  This is to enable clients to show progress during file writes.
  
  Caveat: This does not work with apply_patch in function call mode, since
  that required adding streaming json parsing.
