## Why
Revert #27910 to remove the newly introduced thread `recencyAt`
persistence and API behavior from `main`.
## What changed
This reverts commit `fac3158c2a783095768076489815f361fa9b0db4`,
including the state migration, thread-store propagation, app-server API
surface, generated schemas, and related tests.
## Validation
Not run before opening; relying on CI for the initial fast signal.
## Why
#28152 jumped the gun on moving the rollout format to store URIs, and
would likely break compat with some features that don't go through the
same types as the core logic.
## What
Make `TurnContextItem.cwd` an `AbsolutePathBuf` again, remove test added
for `PathUri` serialization in rollouts. Also drops a bunch of error
paths that are no longer needed.
## Summary
Add a server-owned `recencyAt` timestamp and `recency_at` thread-list
sort key for product recency ordering while preserving the existing
meaning of `updatedAt` as the latest persisted thread mutation.
This is the server-side alternative to #27697. Rather than narrowing
`updatedAt`, clients can sort the sidebar by `recency_at` and continue
treating `updatedAt` as mutation time.

[openai/openai#1024599](https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/1024599)
## Contract
- `recencyAt` initializes when a thread is created.
- A turn start advances `recencyAt` monotonically.
- Commentary, agent output, tool results, token/accounting updates, turn
completion, archive, unarchive, resume, and generic metadata writes do
not advance it.
- `updatedAt` retains its existing behavior and continues to advance for
persisted thread mutations.
- Current servers populate `recencyAt`; the response field is optional
in generated TypeScript so clients connected to older servers can fall
back to `updatedAt`.
- Filesystem-only fallback uses existing updated/mtime ordering when
SQLite is unavailable.
## Persistence and compatibility
Migration 0038 adds second- and millisecond-precision recency columns,
backfills them from the existing updated timestamp, creates list
indexes, and includes an insert trigger so older binaries writing to a
migrated database seed recency without causing later mutations to
advance it.
Generic metadata upserts preserve existing recency values. Turn-start
updates use a dedicated monotonic touch, and process-local allocation
keeps millisecond cursor values unique. State DB list, search, read,
filtered-list repair, rollout fallback propagation, and app-server
conversions all carry the new field.
## API
`Thread` responses include:
```ts
recencyAt?: number
```
`thread/list` and `thread/search` accept:
```json
{ "sortKey": "recency_at" }
```
Generated TypeScript and JSON schemas are included.

## Why
Model-visible `<environment_context>` should match the environment of
the executor, not of the app server.
Stacked on #28146.
## What
- Keep selected environment cwd values as `PathUri` while building
environment context.
- Render cwd text using the path convention represented by the URI, with
the canonical URI as a fallback.
- Preserve compatibility with legacy `TurnContextItem.cwd` values when
reconstructing and diffing context.
- Extend the Wine-backed remote Windows test to assert that the model
sees `powershell` and `C:\windows`.
## Why
The local rollout compression worker currently scans only
`archived_sessions`, so cold unarchived thread history remains expanded
indefinitely.
## What changed
- Scan `sessions` after `archived_sessions` within the existing worker
runtime budget.
- Update rollout compression coverage to require both cold active and
archived rollouts to be compressed while fresh active rollouts remain
plain.
The worker remains behind the disabled-by-default
`local_thread_store_compression` feature, and the existing seven-day
cold-file threshold is unchanged.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-rollout` (69 passed)
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
## Why
Models sometimes need to pause briefly while waiting for external work,
but using a shell command for that delay ties the wait to a process and
does not naturally resume when new turn input arrives.
## What changed
- add a built-in `sleep` tool behind the under-development `sleep_tool`
feature
- accept a bounded `duration_ms` argument, matching the millisecond
convention used by unified exec
- end the sleep early when either steered user input or mailbox input
arrives
- include elapsed wall-clock time in completed and interrupted outputs
- emit a dedicated core `SleepItem` through `item/started` and
`item/completed`
- expose the sleep item as app-server v2 `ThreadItem::Sleep` and retain
it in reconstructed thread history
- regenerate the configuration schema for the new feature flag
- regenerate app-server JSON and TypeScript schema fixtures

## Description
This PR adds an optional `metadata` field to `ResponseItem` for
Responses API calls. Only mechanical plumbing, no actual values
populated and sent yet. Turns out just adding a new field to
`ResponseItem` has quite a large blast radius already.
This change is backwards compatible because `metadata` is optional and
omitted when absent, so existing response items and rollout history
without it still deserialize and requests that do not set it keep the
same wire shape. For provider compatibility, we strip out `metadata`
before non-OpenAI Responses requests so Azure and AWS Bedrock never see
this field.
My followup PR here will actually make use of it to start storing and
passing along `turn_id`: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/28360
## What changed
- Added `ResponseItemMetadata` with optional `turn_id`, plus optional
`metadata` on Responses API item variants and inter-agent communication.
- Preserved item metadata through response-item rewrites such as
truncation, missing tool-output synthesis, compaction history
rebuilding, visible-history conversion, rollout/resume, and generated
app-server schemas/types.
- Strip item metadata from non-OpenAI Responses requests while
preserving it for OpenAI-shaped requests.
- Updated the mechanical fixture/test construction churn required by the
new optional field.
## Why
Clients that display or coordinate spawned subagents need an
authoritative snapshot of a thread's immediate spawned children when
they connect to app-server or recover after missing live events.
`thread/list` cannot query by parent, so clients must otherwise scan
unrelated threads or reconstruct relationships from rollout history and
transient events.
The direct spawn relationship already exists in persisted
`thread_spawn_edges` state. Review and Guardian threads do not
participate in that lifecycle and are intentionally outside this
filter's scope.
## What changed
This adds an experimental `parentThreadId` filter to `thread/list`.
Parent-filtered requests return direct spawned children from persisted
state while preserving the existing response shape, explicit filters,
sorting, and timestamp-only cursor behavior. The lookup does not read
rollout transcripts or recursively return descendants.
Supersedes #25112 with the narrower `thread/list` filter approach.
## How it works
1. An experimental client passes a valid thread ID as `parentThreadId`.
2. App-server routes the list through the existing thread-store and
state-database boundaries.
3. SQLite selects threads whose IDs have a direct persisted spawn edge
from that parent.
4. Omitted provider and source filters include all values; explicit
filters keep ordinary `thread/list` semantics.
5. Grandchildren, Review threads, and Guardian threads are excluded.
## Verification
State (144 tests), rollout (69 tests), and focused app-server
thread-list (31 tests) suites passed. Scoped Clippy checks and
repository formatting also passed. Coverage includes direct spawned
children, omitted grandchildren, pagination, malformed IDs, mixed source
kinds, explicit filters, and operation without rollout files.
## Why
Multi-agent v2 `send_message` deliveries already reach the receiving
model as typed `agent_message` items with encrypted content.
Child-completion notifications are generated by Codex itself, so their
content is plaintext and previously fell back to a serialized JSON
envelope inside an assistant message.
With plaintext `input_text` supported for `agent_message`, both delivery
paths can use the same model-visible type while preserving explicit
author and recipient metadata.
## What changed
- add plaintext `input_text` support to `AgentMessageInputContent` and
regenerate the affected app-server schemas
- preserve `InterAgentCommunication` as structured mailbox input instead
of converting it to assistant text
- record delivered communications as typed `agent_message` history items
- persist a dedicated rollout item so local delivery metadata such as
`trigger_turn` remains available without leaking into the Responses
request
- reconstruct typed agent messages on resume and preserve fork-turn
truncation behavior
- remove request-time assistant-content parsing
- preserve plaintext and encrypted inter-agent deliveries in stage-one
memory inputs
- normalize and link plaintext and encrypted agent messages in rollout
traces without treating inbound messages as child results
- cover the real MultiAgent V2 child-completion path end to end with
deterministic mailbox synchronization

## Why
First-party async traits should expose their `Send` contracts explicitly
without requiring `async_trait`. This completes the migration pattern
established in #27303 and #27304.
## What changed
- Replaced the remaining first-party `async_trait` traits with native
return-position `impl Future + Send` where statically dispatched and
explicit boxed `Send` futures where object safety is required.
- Kept implementations behavior-preserving, outlining existing async
bodies into inherent methods where that keeps the diff reviewable.
- Removed all direct first-party `async-trait` dependencies and the
workspace dependency declaration.
- Added a cargo-deny policy that permits `async-trait` only through the
remaining transitive wrapper crates.
- Updated `rand` from 0.8.5 to 0.8.6 to resolve RUSTSEC-2026-0097 and
keep the full cargo-deny check passing.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-exec-server`: 216 passed, 2 skipped.
- `just test -p codex-model-provider`: 39 passed.
- `just test -p codex-core` and `just test`: changed tests passed;
remaining failures are environment-sensitive suites unrelated to this
migration.
- `cargo deny check`
- `just fix`
- `just fmt`
- `cargo shear`
- `just bazel-lock-check`
## Summary
- snapshot `comp_hash` into `TurnContext` when the turn is created and
use that snapshot as the downstream source of truth
- persist the turn hash in rollout context and recover it into
previous-turn settings during resume and fork replay
- compact existing history with the previous model only when both
adjacent turns provide hashes and the values differ
- record `comp_hash_changed` as the compaction reason
- cover ordinary transitions, resume, and missing-hash compatibility
with end-to-end tests
## Why
History produced under one compaction-compatible model configuration may
not be safe to carry directly into another. Compacting at the turn
boundary converts that history before context updates and the new user
message are added. Persisting the turn snapshot in `TurnContextItem`
makes the same protection work after resuming a rollout.
A missing hash is not treated as evidence of incompatibility. `None →
Some`, `Some → None`, and `None → None` do not trigger compaction; only
`Some(previous) → Some(current)` with unequal values does.
## Stack

- #27532 is based directly on `main`
## Testing
- `just test -p codex-core pre_sampling_compact_` — 6 passed

- `just fix -p codex-core -p codex-protocol -p codex-analytics -p

Further investigation of the sqlite incidents showed that the problems
are due to corruption from the older version of SQLite that we recently
upgraded, and that the data is truly corrupted in the root database --
recovery of all data is not possible. Given that the data is
reconstructable from the rollouts on disk, we should just auto-backup
the database and let codex rebuild the rollout info from the disk
rollouts.
The new behavior is that appserver auto-backs-up and rebuilds (with logs
reflecting that behavior). The CLI now pops a message letting you know
this happened and the paths of the backed-up corrupt db and the new
database. There is also context added so that the desktop app can read
the rebuild info from it and inform the user with it.
## Why
Clients can archive and unarchive threads today, but there is no
app-server API for permanently removing a thread. Deletion also needs to
cover the full session tree: deleting a main thread should remove
spawned subagent threads and the related local metadata instead of
leaving orphaned rollout files, goals, or subagent state behind.
## What
- Adds the v2 `thread/delete` request and `thread/deleted` notification,
with the response shape kept consistent with `thread/archive`.
- Implements local hard delete for active and archived rollout files.
- Deletes the requested thread's state DB row as the commit point, then
best-effort cleans associated state including spawned descendants,
goals, spawn edges, logs, dynamic tools, and agent job assignments.
- Updates app-server API docs and generated protocol schema/TypeScript
fixtures.
## Why
`thread/search` found content inside compressed rollouts but could drop
the result when joining it with SQLite-backed thread metadata. Search
returned the physical `.jsonl.zst` path while SQLite retained the
logical `.jsonl` path, so exact path matching failed.
## What changed
- Key rollout search matches by their canonical logical `.jsonl` path,
independent of the on-disk representation.
- Canonicalize thread-list paths before joining them with content-search
matches.
- Update compressed-rollout coverage to assert the logical-path
contract.
## Validation
- Ran `just fmt`.
- Ran `git diff --check`.
- Tests and Clippy were intentionally left to CI.
## Why
Archiving a thread can spike app-server CPU when the state DB does not
have a usable rollout path. The archive path falls back to locating the
rollout by thread id; because rollout filenames already contain the
UUID, the cheap fallback should find the file directly before invoking
broader file search.
## What Changed
- In `codex-rs/rollout/src/list.rs`, try the exact rollout filename
lookup before `codex-file-search`.
- Keep fuzzy search as the final legacy fallback when no filename match
is found.
- Preserve the legacy fallback when the filename scan hits a traversal
error, so an inaccessible stale subtree does not block lookup elsewhere.
## Verification
- `just test -p codex-rollout`
- `just test -p codex-thread-store`
- `just test -p codex-app-server thread_archive`
## Why
Compaction window identity is part of session history, not model-client
transport state. Persisting it with the compacted rollout item lets
resumed threads continue from the reconstructed window without keeping
mutable window state on `ModelClient`.
## What changed
- Added `window_id` to `CompactedItem` and stamp it when
`replace_compacted_history` installs compacted history.
- Moved auto-compact window id ownership into `AutoCompactWindow` /
`SessionState`; `ModelClient` now receives the request window id from
callers instead of storing it.
- Returned `window_id` from rollout reconstruction for resume.
Reconstruction uses the newest surviving compacted item's stored
`window_id` when present, and falls back to the legacy compacted-item
count when it is absent.
- Kept fork startup at the fresh default window id and updated direct
model-client tests to pass explicit test window ids.
## Validation
- `cargo check -p codex-core --tests`
## Why
Multi-agent v2 identifies agents by canonical paths, but its tool
handlers still emitted the larger legacy collaboration begin/end events
built around nickname and role metadata. App-server, rollout-trace,
analytics, and TUI consumers therefore lacked one compact path-based
completion signal that behaved consistently across live events and
replay.
The TUI also needs a bounded `/agent` status surface for v2 agents. It
should use recent local activity for previews, refresh liveness without
loading full histories, and keep the legacy picker available when no
path-backed v2 agent is known.
## What changed
- Replace the v2 `spawn_agent`, `send_message`, `followup_task`, and
`interrupt_agent` legacy lifecycle emissions with a success-only
`SubAgentActivity` event. The event records the tool call ID, occurrence
time, affected thread, canonical agent path, and `started`,
`interacted`, or `interrupted` kind.
- Expose the activity as a completion-only app-server v2
`subAgentActivity` thread item in live notifications and reconstructed
history, regenerate the protocol schemas, and count it in sub-agent tool
analytics.
- Track canonical paths from live activity and loaded-thread metadata in
the TUI, and render the activity in live and replayed transcripts.
- Make `/agent` list running path-backed agents with summaries from
bounded local event buffers. Each summary is capped at 240 graphemes,
the scan is capped at six recent items, only the last three wrapped
lines are shown, and command output is omitted. Liveness falls back to
metadata-only `thread/read` when local turn state is unavailable.
- Persist the activity as a terminal rollout-trace runtime payload and
reduce it to the corresponding spawn, send, follow-up, or close
interaction edge. `interrupt_agent` is classified as a close-edge
operation.
- Preserve the legacy picker when no path-backed v2 agent is known.
## Compatibility
App-server v2 clients that consumed `collabAgentToolCall` begin/end
pairs for these tools must handle the new completion-only
`subAgentActivity` item. Legacy v1 collaboration behavior is unchanged.

## Testing
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `just test -p codex-rollout-trace`

serialization, spawn-edge reduction, `interrupt_agent` classification,
TUI status rendering without aggregated command output, and clearing
stale running state after a completed turn.
## Why
First-party backends can supply turn-scoped moderation metadata that
app-server clients need for client-side presentation. Exposing this as
an experimental typed notification lets opted-in clients consume it
without interpreting raw Responses API events.
## What changed
- forward `response.metadata.openai_chatgpt_moderation_metadata` from
Responses API SSE and WebSocket streams as turn-scoped moderation
metadata
- emit the experimental app-server v2 `turn/moderationMetadata`
notification with `{ threadId, turnId, metadata }`
- add app-server integration coverage for the typed moderation metadata
notification
## Testing
- `just test -p codex-core

- `just test -p codex-core` (fails locally: 46 failures and 1 timeout,

and 5 timed out; failures are in existing environment-sensitive tests,
primarily because nested macOS `sandbox-exec` is not permitted)
- `just write-app-server-schema --experimental --schema-root

## Why
Multi-agent v2 currently routes agent instructions through normal tool
arguments and inter-agent context. That means the parent model can emit
plaintext task text, Codex can persist it in history/rollouts, and the
recipient can receive it as ordinary assistant-message JSON.
This changes the v2 path so agent instructions stay encrypted between
model calls: Responses encrypts the `message` argument returned by the
model, Codex forwards only that ciphertext, and Responses decrypts it
internally for the recipient model.
## What changed
- Mark the v2 `message` parameter as encrypted for `spawn_agent`,
`send_message`, and `followup_task`.
- Treat multi-agent v2 tool `message` values as ciphertext
unconditionally.
- Store v2 inter-agent task text in
`InterAgentCommunication.encrypted_content` with empty plaintext
`content`.
- Convert encrypted inter-agent communications into the Responses
`agent_message` input item before sending the child request.
- Preserve `agent_message` items across history, rollout, compaction,
telemetry, and app-server schema paths.
- Leave multi-agent v1 unchanged.
## Message shape
The model still calls the v2 tools with a `message` argument, but that
value is now ciphertext:
```json
{
"name": "spawn_agent",
"arguments": {
"task_name": "worker",
"message": "<ciphertext>"
}
}
```
Codex stores the task as encrypted inter-agent communication:
```json
{
"author": "/root",
"recipient": "/root/worker",
"content": "",
"encrypted_content": "<ciphertext>",
"trigger_turn": true
}
```
When Codex builds the recipient request, it forwards the ciphertext
using the new Responses input item:
```json
{
"type": "agent_message",
"author": "/root",
"recipient": "/root/worker",
"content": [
{
"type": "encrypted_content",
"encrypted_content": "<ciphertext>"
}
]
}
```
Responses decrypts that item internally for the recipient model.
## Context impact
- Parent context no longer carries plaintext v2 agent task instructions
from these tool arguments.
- Codex rollout/history stores ciphertext for v2 agent instructions.
- Recipient requests receive an `agent_message` item instead of
assistant commentary JSON for encrypted task delivery.
- Plaintext completion/status notifications are still plaintext because
they are Codex-generated status messages, not encrypted model tool
arguments.

Stack split from #25708. Original PR intentionally left open. This first
PR adds the multi-agent runtime metadata types and catalog plumbing used

## Summary
- teach rollout search to return precomputed snippets for compressed
rollouts
- reuse those snippets in local thread search instead of reopening
matching compressed files
- keep the no-`rg` fallback single-pass and add regression coverage for
the compressed path
## Why
`thread/search` currently decodes matching compressed rollouts twice:
once to discover the matching path and again to extract the snippet
shown in results. That defeats a meaningful part of the compressed-read
optimization work.
## Impact
Compressed rollout hits now pay one decode pass on the search path while
plain `.jsonl` hits keep the existing ripgrep-driven flow.

## Summary
Remove the dead experimental `persistExtendedHistory` app-server flag
and collapse rollout persistence to the single policy app-server already
used.
## What Changed
- Removed `persistExtendedHistory` from v2 thread start/resume/fork
params and deleted its deprecation notice path.
- Removed the persistence-mode enums and plumbing through core, rollout,
and thread-store.
- Made rollout filtering mode-free, keeping the existing limited
persisted-history behavior.

- final `rg` for removed flag/type names
## Why
Fixesopenai/codex#20944.
Desktop side chats are intentionally ephemeral and pathless. They can
still accept live turns while loaded, but after a reload there is no
persisted rollout to resume. In the reported failure mode, Desktop could
send `$CODEX_HOME` as the resume/fork path for one of these pathless
side chats.
`thread/resume` and `thread/fork` prefer an explicit `path` over
`threadId`, and rollout path lookup only checked that a candidate
existed. That let `$CODEX_HOME` pass as a rollout path, so the later
rollout reader tried to open a directory and surfaced the low-level `Is
a directory` error.
## What Changed
- Reject explicit rollout paths that resolve to a directory or other
non-file before attempting to read rollout history.
- Make `codex_rollout::existing_rollout_path` return only plain or
compressed rollout candidates that are actual files.
- Add an app-server regression test that creates an ephemeral fork, runs
a turn while the side thread is loaded, simulates reload, then verifies
both `thread/resume` and `thread/fork` reject `$CODEX_HOME` with `path
is a directory` instead of the OS-level directory-read error.
- Rebase over the `TestAppServer` rename and update the remaining stale
test harness call sites to use `TestAppServer` with `app_server` local
variables.

- `thread-store/src/local/read_thread.rs` validates explicit rollout
paths before rollout reading:

- `rollout/src/compression.rs` now requires file metadata for plain and
compressed rollout candidates:

## Summary
Add counter telemetry for the local rollout compression worker so we can
see when it runs, why it skips, and how individual file/materialization
paths resolve.
## Changes
- Emit `codex.rollout_compression.run` with statuses for start,
completion, failure, duplicate-run skip, and missing runtime skip.
- Emit `codex.rollout_compression.file` outcomes for scanned,
compressed, skipped, and failed compression candidates.
- Emit `codex.rollout_compression.temp_cleanup` and
`codex.rollout_compression.materialize` counters for cleanup and
decompression paths.
## Validation

- `just test -p codex-rollout`
- `just fix -p codex-rollout`
## Why
[#25089](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/25089) introduced the
background worker that compresses cold archived rollouts, and
[#25654](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/25654) made that pass
faster once it starts. But the worker still deleted
`rollout-compression.lock` on successful exit, so the existing six-hour
staleness window only helped with overlapping or crashed workers. Each
new local thread-store initialization could immediately rescan archived
rollouts even if a full pass had just finished.
This change keeps the existing marker around long enough to throttle
redundant reruns. The worker is still best-effort, but it no longer does
repeated startup scans when nothing new is eligible for compression.
## What Changed
- Replace the drop-scoped `CompressionLock` with a
`CompressionRunMarker` that claims the existing
`.tmp/rollout-compression.lock` path and leaves it in place after
success.
- Reuse the existing six-hour staleness window to block both overlapping
starts and immediate reruns, while still letting a stale marker be
reclaimed.
- Update the worker docs and debug logging to describe the new "already
running or recently ran" behavior.
- Extend the rollout compression tests to assert that a successful run
leaves the marker behind and that a fresh marker suppresses a new run.

background worker for compressing cold archived rollouts, but the worker
still processed files effectively one at a time: each compression job
was sent to `spawn_blocking` and then awaited before the next file
started. On machines with a backlog of archived rollouts, that makes
catch-up slower than it needs to be even though the actual compression
work already runs off the async runtime.
## What Changed
- Queue rollout compression work in a `JoinSet` while directory
traversal continues.
- Cap the worker at two in-flight compression jobs so it can overlap
compression without turning the background task into unbounded blocking
work.
- Drain pending jobs before returning, including the
`read_dir.next_entry()` error path, so every launched job still
contributes to the final `compressed`, `skipped`, and `failed` stats.
- Treat task join failures the same way as compression failures in the
worker's warning and failure accounting.
## Rollout compression stack
This stack splits #24941 into reviewable steps for local rollout
compression. The design is intentionally staged:
1. Teach readers, listing, search, and lookup to understand compressed
rollouts.
2. Make append and resume paths materialize compressed rollouts back to
plain JSONL before writing.
3. Add a disabled-by-default worker that can compress cold archived
rollouts behind `local_thread_store_compression`.
The key invariant is that writers append to plain `.jsonl`. A
`.jsonl.zst` file is a cold/read representation; if a write is needed,
the compressed file is materialized back to plain JSONL first. Readers
prefer plain `.jsonl` when both forms exist and can fall back to the
compressed sibling during transitions.
The worker is deliberately the last PR and remains behind an
under-development feature flag. It currently scans only
`archived_sessions`, not active `sessions`, because active sessions have
the highest resume/append race risk. That means this stack does not yet
compress most unarchived local history.
## Known race / follow-up
The remaining unresolved design question is writer/compressor
coordination. Even for archived rollouts, a resume or metadata update
can append while the worker is replacing the plain file with
`.jsonl.zst`; the current double-stat checks narrow but do not fully
eliminate the window where a writer has opened the plain file before
unlink. Do not treat the worker PR as production-ready until we either:
- prevent append/resume paths from racing archived compression, or
- introduce a shared representation/append lock or equivalent
coordination.
The first two PRs are useful independently: they make compressed
rollouts readable and make append paths safely recover back to plain
JSONL. The third PR isolates the worker behavior so that coordination
issue is reviewable separately.
## Validation
Focused local validation for the stack includes:
- `just test -p codex-rollout`
- `just test -p codex-thread-store` where thread-store paths were
touched
- `just test -p codex-features` for the feature flag slice
- `just bazel-lock-check` after dependency graph changes
- scoped `just fix -p ...` passes for changed crates
CI is still the source of truth for the full platform matrix.
## This PR in the stack
This is PR 3/3, based on #25088. It adds the under-development feature
flag and starts the best-effort background worker when enabled. The
worker currently compresses only cold archived rollouts, skips active
sessions, verifies compressed output, preserves mtime and permissions,
keeps a store-level lock heartbeat, and cleans stale temp files.
Stack order:
1. #25087: read compressed local rollouts.
2. #25088: materialize compressed rollouts before append.
3. This PR: add the disabled local compression worker.
## Summary
- preserve existing explicit SQLite thread titles during rollout
reconciliation/backfill when the incoming rollout title is only
first-message-derived
- keep stale inferred-title repair behavior while avoiding session-index
scans during startup backfill
- add a regression test for renamed titles surviving reconcile
## Testing
- just fmt
- just test -p codex-rollout
- just test -p codex-state
## Summary
- initialize `parent_thread_id` in the compressed rollout test fixture's
`SessionMeta`
- restore rollout test compilation across Bazel test, clippy,
release-build, and argument-comment-lint jobs
## Root cause
PR #25087 (`Read compressed rollouts and materialize before append`)
added `codex-rs/rollout/src/compression_tests.rs` in merge commit
`a8a6071279b6f3112fcc5fc3fee69c48473d7149`. Its `write_rollout` fixture
constructs `SessionMeta` without the required `parent_thread_id` field,
causing `error[E0063]` when Bazel compiles `rollout-unit-tests-bin` on
`main` and downstream PRs.
## Validation
- `UV_CACHE_DIR=/private/tmp/codex-uv-cache just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-rollout` (`59` tests passed; bench smoke passed)
- `git diff --check`
- manually audited the touched Rust diff for positional literal argument
comments; the change adds no positional callsite
## Local lint blocker
- `just argument-comment-lint` could not reach source inspection locally
because Bazel's LLVM dependency fails analysis:
`compiler-rt/BUILD.bazel` glob `include/sanitizer/*.h` matched no files.
## Why
Local rollout compression needs a cold `.jsonl.zst` representation
without letting compressed physical paths leak into append-mode writers.
The unsafe case is resume or metadata update code successfully reading a
compressed rollout and then appending raw JSONL bytes to the zstd file.
This PR folds the former #25088 materialization slice into the
read-support PR so the reader changes and append-safety invariant land
together.
## What Changed
- Teach rollout readers, discovery, listing, search, and ID lookup to
understand compressed `.jsonl.zst` rollouts.
- Keep `.jsonl` as the logical/stored rollout path while allowing read
paths to open either plain or compressed storage.
- Materialize compressed rollouts back to plain `.jsonl` before
append-mode writes, including resume and direct metadata append paths.
- Preserve compressed-file permissions when materializing back to plain
JSONL.
- Refresh thread-store resolved rollout paths after compatibility
metadata writes so reconciliation follows the materialized file.
- Avoid treating transient compression temp files as real rollout lookup
results.
## Remaining Stack
#25089 remains the separate worker PR. It is based directly on this PR
and stays behind the disabled `local_thread_store_compression` feature
flag.
The worker still has a broader coordination question: a resume or
metadata update can race with background compression while a plain file
is being replaced by `.jsonl.zst`. This PR handles the read and
materialize-before-append primitives; it does not make the worker
production-ready.

- `just bazel-lock-check`
## Why
This PR
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/24161#discussion_r3325692763
revealed a subagent data modeling issue, where we overloaded
`forked_from_id` to also mean `parent_thread_id`. That's incorrect since
guardian and review subagents can be a subagent and NOT fork the main
thread's history.
The solution here is to explicitly store a new `parent_thread_id` on
`SessionMeta`, alongside `forked_from_id` which already exists. While
we're at it, also expose it in the app-server protocol on the `Thread`
object.
A thread->subagent relationship and a fork of thread history are
orthogonal concepts.
## What Changed
- Added top-level `parent_thread_id` persistence on `SessionMeta` and
runtime/session plumbing through `SessionConfiguredEvent`,
`CodexSpawnArgs`, `SessionConfiguration`, `ThreadConfigSnapshot`,
`TurnContext`, and `ModelClient`.
- Made turn metadata, request headers, analytics, and subagent-start
events read the separate runtime/top-level parent field instead of
deriving general parent lineage from `SessionSource` or
`forked_from_thread_id`.
- Passed parent lineage separately at delegated subagent, review,
guardian, agent-job, and multi-agent spawn construction sites;
copied-history fork lineage remains derived only from `InitialHistory`.
- Persisted and exposed parent lineage through rollout/thread-store
projections and app-server v2 `Thread.parentThreadId`.
- Updated app-server README text and regenerated app-server schema
fixtures for the additive `parentThreadId` response field.
## Summary
Remove a stale `TODO(jif)` block of commented-out rollout listing tests
that still referenced an older listing API.
The current rollout listing behavior is covered by the active state DB
and filesystem fallback tests, so keeping the dead commented tests just
adds noise.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-rollout`
## Summary
Some permission profiles can encode filesystem reads that should remain
unavailable to the agent. Before this change, the model-visible context
and automatic approval review prompt summarized the effective
permissions as a legacy sandbox mode, which can omit permission-profile
filesystem entries from escalation decisions.
For example, a profile can grant workspace access while denying a
private subtree across every workspace root:
```toml
default_permissions = "restricted-workspace"
[permissions.restricted-workspace.workspace_roots]
"/Users/alice/project" = true
"/Users/alice/other-project" = true
[permissions.restricted-workspace.filesystem]
":minimal" = "read"
[permissions.restricted-workspace.filesystem.":workspace_roots"]
"." = "write"
"private" = "deny"
"private/**" = "deny"
```
The context window now describes the workspace roots and effective
filesystem side of the `PermissionProfile` directly, with deny entries
marked as non-escalatable:
```xml
<environment_context>
<cwd>/Users/alice/project</cwd>
<shell>zsh</shell>
<filesystem><workspace_roots><root>/Users/alice/project</root><root>/Users/alice/other-project</root></workspace_roots><permission_profile type="managed"><file_system type="restricted"><entry access="read"><special>:minimal</special></entry><entry access="write"><path>/Users/alice/project</path></entry><entry access="write"><path>/Users/alice/other-project</path></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><path>/Users/alice/project/private</path></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><path>/Users/alice/other-project/private</path></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><glob>/Users/alice/project/private/**</glob></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><glob>/Users/alice/other-project/private/**</glob></entry></file_system></permission_profile></filesystem>
</environment_context>
```
Managed requirements can impose the same kind of deny-read restriction:
```toml
[permissions.filesystem]
deny_read = [
"/Users/alice/project/private",
"/Users/alice/project/private/**",
]
```
The automatic approval review prompt also receives the parent turn's
denied-read context, so review decisions can account for the active
permission profile.
## What Changed
- Render the effective filesystem profile in `<environment_context>`,
including profile type, filesystem entries, workspace roots, and
non-escalatable deny entries.
- Persist effective `workspace_roots` in `TurnContextItem` so
resumed/replayed context does not have to bind `:workspace_roots`
through legacy `cwd` fallback.
- Add explicit permission instructions that denied reads are policy
restrictions, not escalation targets.
- Pass the parent turn's denied-read context into automatic approval
reviews.
- Add targeted coverage for prompt rendering, workspace-root
materialization, replay context, and review prompt context.
- Keep the prompt-context test expectations platform-aware so the same
filesystem rendering assertions pass on Unix and Windows paths.
## Testing
- `just test -p codex-core
context::environment_context::tests::serialize_environment_context_with_full_filesystem_profile`
- `just test -p codex-core
context::environment_context::tests::turn_context_item_filesystem_uses_workspace_roots_instead_of_cwd`
- `just test -p codex-core
context::permissions_instructions::permissions_instructions_tests::builds_permissions_from_profile_with_denied_reads`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
I also attempted `just test -p codex-core`; the changed prompt-context
tests passed, but the full local run did not complete cleanly in this
sandboxed macOS environment due unrelated user-shell `CODEX_SANDBOX*`
expectations and integration-test timeouts.
## Summary
Adds an optional `clientId` field to app-server v2 `UserInput` and
carries it through the core `UserInput` model so clients can correlate
echoed user input items without relying on payload equality.
## Details
- Adds `client_id: Option<String>` to core `UserInput` variants.
- Exposes the v2 app-server field as `clientId` on the wire and in
generated TypeScript.
- Preserves the id when converting between app-server v2 and core
protocol types.
- Regenerates app-server schema fixtures.
## Validation

- `cargo test -p codex-protocol`
- `just fix -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `just fix -p codex-protocol`
- `git diff --check`
## Why
Dynamic tools are defined at thread start and already stored in rollout
`SessionMeta`, which restores resumed and forked sessions. Persisting
the same tools through SQLite creates a second runtime persistence path
that is unnecessary prework for the explicit namespace refactor.
## What changed
- Restore missing thread-start dynamic tools directly from rollout
history, including when SQLite is enabled.
- Remove SQLite dynamic-tool reads, writes, backfill, and thread
metadata patch plumbing.
- Add SQLite-enabled resume integration coverage that verifies a
rollout-defined dynamic tool is still sent after resume.
## Compatibility
The existing `thread_dynamic_tools` table is intentionally not dropped
even though it's now unused. Older Codex binaries are allowed to open
databases migrated by newer binaries and still reference this table;
dropping it would break that mixed-version path. See
[here](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/state/src/migrations.rs#L10-L11).

## Summary
Generated memory rows and their stage-one/stage-two job state currently
live in `state_5.sqlite` alongside thread metadata. That makes memory
cleanup and regeneration share the main state schema even though those
rows are memory-pipeline data and can be rebuilt independently from the
durable thread records.
This PR moves the memory-owned tables into a dedicated
`memories_1.sqlite` runtime database while keeping thread metadata in
`state_5.sqlite`.
## Changes
- Adds a separate memories DB runtime, migrator, path helpers, telemetry
kind, and Bazel compile data for `state/memory_migrations`.
- Introduces `MemoryStore` behind `StateRuntime::memories()` and moves
memory table/job operations onto that store.
- Drops the old memory tables from the state DB and recreates their
schema in `state/memory_migrations/0001_memories.sql`.
- Updates memory startup, citation usage tracking, rollout pollution
handling, `debug clear-memories`, and app-server `memory/reset` to
operate through the memories DB.
- Preserves cross-DB behavior by hydrating thread metadata from the
state DB when selecting visible memory outputs and checking stage-one
staleness.
## Verification
- Added/updated `codex-state` tests for deleted-thread memory visibility
and already-polluted phase-two enqueue behavior.
- Updated `debug clear-memories`, app-server `memory/reset`, and
memories startup tests to seed and assert memory rows through
`memories_1.sqlite`.
## Why
Refs #24425.
We have seen rollout JSONL corruption that appears consistent with a
rollout write failing after partially appending a line, followed by a
retry that appends the same item again. The available user logs did not
include the underlying OS error, so it is hard to tell whether the
trigger was `ENOSPC`, quota exhaustion, a filesystem error, or something
else.
This PR adds the missing diagnostics for future reports.
## What changed
- Include `ErrorKind` and `raw_os_error()` in rollout writer failure
logs.
- Preserve the existing append-only rollout write path; this PR is
diagnostic-only.
## Verification
- `just test -p codex-rollout`
## Summary
- make rollout content search prefilter rollout files case-insensitively
- keep the no-ripgrep fallback scan and visible snippet matcher aligned
with that behavior
- cover a lowercase `thread/search` query matching mixed-case
conversation content
## Why
The rollout-backed `thread/search` path used exact string matching in
both its `rg` prefilter and semantic snippet generation. A content
result could be missed solely because the query casing did not match the
stored conversation text.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server thread_search_returns_content_matches`
- `cargo test -p codex-rollout`
- `just bazel-lock-update`
- `just bazel-lock-check`
- `cargo build -p codex-cli`
- launched a local Electron dev instance with the rebuilt CLI binary
## Summary
- add experimental `thread/search` for local rollout-backed thread
search using `rg` over JSONL rollouts
- return search-specific result rows with optional previews instead of
storing preview data on `StoredThread` or ordinary `Thread` responses
- keep `thread/list` separate from full-content search and document the
new app-server surface
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server
thread_search_returns_content_and_title_matches -- --nocapture`
**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.

## 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

- `cargo test -p codex-state turn_context`

- `git diff --check`
## 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`.
## Why
Remote compaction v2 was still using `context_compaction` as both the
request trigger and the compacted output shape. The Responses API now
has the landed contract for this flow: Codex sends a dedicated `{
"type": "compaction_trigger" }` input item, and the backend returns the
standard `compaction` output item with encrypted content.
This aligns the v2 path with that wire contract while preserving the
existing local compacted-history post-processing behavior.
## What changed
- Add `ResponseItem::CompactionTrigger` and regenerate the app-server
protocol schema fixtures.
- Send `compaction_trigger` from `remote_compaction_v2` instead of a
payload-less `context_compaction`.
- Collect exactly one backend `compaction` output item, then reuse the
existing compacted-history rebuilding path.
- Treat the trigger item as a transient request marker rather than model
output or persisted rollout/memory content.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol compaction_trigger`
- `cargo test -p codex-core remote_compact_v2`
- `cargo test -p codex-core compact_remote_v2`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
responses_websocket_sends_response_processed_after_remote_compaction_v2`
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol schema_fixtures`
- make ThreadStore::update_thread_metadata accept a broad range of
metadata patches
- keep ThreadStore::append_items as raw canonical history append (no
metadata side effects)
- in the local store, write these metadata updates to a combination of
sqlite and rollout jsonl files for backwards-compat. It special cases
which fields need to go into jsonl vs sqlite vs whatever, confining the
awkwardness to just this implementation
- in remote stores we can simply persist the metadata directly to a
database, no special casing required.
- move the "implicit metadata updates triggered by appending rollout
items" from the RolloutRecorder (which is local-threadstore-specific) to
the LiveThread layer above the ThreadStore, inside of a private helper
utility called ThreadMetadataSync. LiveThread calls ThreadStore
append_items and update_metadata separately.
- Add a generic update metadata method to ThreadManager that works on
both live threads and "cold" threads
- Call that ThreadManager method from app server code, so app server
doesn't need to worry about whether the thread is live or not
## Summary
- add SQLite init, backfill-gate, and fallback telemetry without
introducing a cross-cutting state-db access wrapper
- install one process-scoped telemetry sink after OTEL startup and let
low-level state/rollout paths emit through it directly
- add process-start metrics for the process owners that initialize
SQLite

Fixes#20792
## Why
`/goal`-first threads are valid resumable threads, but they can be
missing from `codex resume` and app recents because discovery depends on
metadata derived from a normal first user message.
PR #21489 attempted to fix this by using the goal objective as
`first_user_message`. Review feedback pointed out that
`first_user_message` does more than provide visible text today: it gates
listing, supplies preview text, and participates in deciding whether a
later title should surface as a distinct thread name. Reusing it for the
goal objective could leave a `/goal`-first thread with
`first_user_message=<goal>` and `title=<later prompt>`, even though the
goal should only provide the initial visible preview.
This PR follows that feedback by and keeps the `first_user_message` as
is but introduces a new `preview` field to separate concerns. The
`preview` field is populated from the first user message or the goal
objective. We can extend it in the future to include other sources.
## What Changed
- Added internal thread `preview` metadata in `codex-state`, including a
SQLite migration that backfills from `first_user_message` and from
existing `thread_goals` objectives when needed.
- Treated `ThreadGoalUpdated` as preview-bearing metadata so goal-first
threads can be listed and searched without mutating
`first_user_message`.
- Updated rollout listing, state queries, thread-store conversion, and
app-server mapping to use preview metadata while continuing to expose
the existing public `preview` field.
- Preserved title/name distinctness behavior around literal
`first_user_message`, so a later normal prompt after `/goal` does not
surface as a separate name just because the goal supplied the initial
preview.
- Preserved compatibility for older/internal metadata writes by deriving
preview from `first_user_message` when explicit preview metadata is
absent.
## Verification
- Manually verified that a thread that starts with a `/goal <objective>`
shows up in the resume picker.
## Why
PR #21460 reverted the earlier move of skills change watching from
`codex-core` into app-server. This reapplies that boundary change so
app-server owns client-facing `skills/changed` notifications and core no
longer carries the watcher.
## What
- Restore the app-server `SkillsWatcher` and register it from thread
listener setup.
- Remove the core-owned skills watcher and its core live-reload
integration surface.
- Restore app-server coverage for `skills/changed` notifications after a
watched skill file changes.
## Validation
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server --test all
suite::v2::skills_list::skills_changed_notification_is_emitted_after_skill_change
-- --exact --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib --no-run`
## What changed
- rewrote `shutdown_flushes_pending_metadata_irrelevant_updated_at` to
seed an existing pending `updated_at` touch directly in
`RolloutWriterState`
- kept the shutdown test focused on draining a pending touch, leaving
the separate coalescing test to cover timing-based deferral
## Why
The old test had to complete several async operations inside the 50 ms
test-only coalescing window. When that sequence took longer, the second
flush updated `threads.updated_at` immediately and the pre-shutdown
equality assertion failed, even though shutdown behavior was correct.
## Validation
- `cargo test -p codex-rollout
shutdown_flushes_pending_metadata_irrelevant_updated_at`
- `cargo test -p codex-rollout`
