## Summary
- preserve the model catalog order for app-server
`supportedReasoningEfforts` and document that client contract
- render TUI reasoning choices in the advertised order
- step reasoning shortcuts by adjacent list position instead of deriving
order from known effort names
- anchor unsupported configured values to the advertised default, or the
first option when needed
- remove canonical effort ordering helpers and the unused upgrade effort
mapping
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- Local tests and compilation were not run per request; relying on CI.
Stacked on #26444.
## Summary
- accept non-empty model-defined reasoning effort values while
preserving built-in effort behavior
- propagate the non-Copy effort type through core, app-server, TUI,
telemetry, and persistence call sites
- preserve string wire encoding and expose an open-string schema for
clients
- update model selection and shortcut behavior for model-advertised
effort values
## Root cause
`ReasoningEffort` gained a string-backed custom variant, so it could no
longer implement `Copy` or rely on derived closed-enum serialization.
Existing consumers still moved effort values from shared references and
assumed a fixed built-in value set.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- Local tests and compilation were not run per request; relying on CI.
Fixes#26025.
## Why
`/goal edit` opens `CustomPromptView`, which did not use the paste-burst
handling that protects the main composer when terminals deliver paste as
rapid key events. On Windows terminals, the first pasted newline could
be treated as Enter-to-submit, truncating the goal edit and leaving the
rest of the paste behind.
## What
This reuses `PasteBurst` in `CustomPromptView` as a lightweight
Enter-suppression detector for paste-like key streams. Characters still
insert directly, explicit paste still goes through the view paste path,
and ordinary text entry still submits on Enter.
## Summary
- Adapts the moved `codex-cloud-config` crate from the legacy cloud
requirements endpoint to the new config bundle endpoint.
- Switches runtime consumers from `CloudRequirementsLoader` to
`CloudConfigBundleLoader` so one shared bundle supplies cloud-delivered
config and requirements.
- Removes the legacy cloud requirements domain loader path.
## Details
This intentionally keeps `codex-cloud-config` monolithic for review
lineage: the previous PR establishes the crate move, and this PR shows
the behavior change against that moved implementation. A follow-up PR
splits the module back into focused files.
The new bundle path preserves the important cloud requirements loader
semantics where intended: account-scoped signed cache, 30 minute TTL, 5
minute refresh cadence, retry/backoff, auth recovery, and fail-closed
startup loading. The cached payload changes from a single requirements
TOML string to the backend-delivered bundle, and validation rejects
malformed config or requirements fragments before cache write/use.
## Stack
1. #25850 - Key request-permission grants by environment: stores and
applies sticky permission grants per environment id.
2. #25858 - Add `environmentId` to `request_permissions`: lets the model
target a selected environment and resolves relative permission paths
against it.
3. This PR (#25862) - Propagate permission approval environment id:
carries the selected environment id through approval events, app-server
requests, TUI prompts, and delegate forwarding.
4. #25867 - Add remote request permissions integration coverage:
verifies the selected remote environment across request, approval, grant
reuse, and exec.
This PR is stacked on #25858, and #25867 is stacked on this PR.
## Why
PR2 lets the model bind a `request_permissions` call to a selected
environment, but the approval event and client-facing request still
needed to carry that binding. For CCA, the user-facing prompt and
delegated approval path should know which environment the grant applies
to instead of relying on cwd alone.
## What Changed
- Added optional `environmentId` to `RequestPermissionsEvent`.
- Emit the selected environment id from core permission approval events.
- Preserve the environment id through delegate forwarding, including
cwd-based delegated requests.
- Added `environmentId` to app-server permission approval params,
generated schema/TypeScript artifacts, and README examples.
- Preserve and display the environment id in TUI permission approval
prompts.
- Updated focused core, app-server protocol, and TUI conversion
coverage.
## Testing
Not run locally per instruction. Performed read-only `git diff --check`.
## Why
`/clear` starts a fresh thread with `InitialHistory::Cleared`, which
re-enters the thread/session startup path. That path now builds large
async futures through `ThreadManagerState::spawn_thread_with_source`,
`Codex::spawn`, and `Session::new`. Separately, TUI config rebuilds for
cwd and permission-profile changes build a similarly heavy
`ConfigBuilder::build()` future inside the app task. In debug and Bazel
runs, those call chains can put enough state on the caller stack to
abort before startup or config refresh completes.
This change keeps the behavior the same while moving the heaviest future
frames off the caller stack.
## What changed
- Box `Codex::spawn(...)` in `codex-rs/core/src/thread_manager.rs`
before awaiting it from `spawn_thread_with_source`.
- Box `Session::new(...)` in `codex-rs/core/src/session/mod.rs` before
awaiting it from `Codex::spawn_internal`.
- Route `ConfigBuilder::build()` through a small `tokio::spawn` helper
in `codex-rs/tui/src/app/config_persistence.rs` so cwd and
permission-profile config rebuilds run on a runtime worker stack while
preserving error context.
## Verification
CI is running on the PR.
No new targeted tests were added. This is a mechanical stack-pressure
reduction that keeps the existing behavior and error propagation intact.
## Summary
Enterprise users can have an effective monthly credit limit, but Codex
`/status` currently drops that metadata from the account-usage response.
This change adds the optional `spend_control.individual_limit`
projection to the existing rate-limit snapshot flow. The backend client
reads the monthly limit, app-server exposes it as `individualLimit`, and
the TUI renders a `Monthly credit limit` row through the existing
progress-bar renderer.
When the backend does not return an effective monthly limit, existing
rate-limit behavior is unchanged.
## Existing backend state
The account-usage backend already returns the effective monthly limit
and current usage together:
```json
{
"spend_control": {
"reached": false,
"individual_limit": {
"limit": "25000",
"used": "8000",
"remaining": "17000",
"used_percent": 32,
"remaining_percent": 68,
"reset_after_seconds": 86400,
"reset_at": 1778137680
}
}
}
```
Before this change, Codex projected rolling `primary` and `secondary`
windows plus `credits`. It ignored `spend_control.individual_limit`, so
app-server clients and `/status` could not render the monthly cap.
The updated flow is:
```text
account usage backend
-> backend-client reads spend_control.individual_limit
-> existing rate-limit snapshot carries optional individual_limit
-> app-server exposes optional individualLimit
-> TUI renders Monthly credit limit
```
## App-server contract
`account/rateLimits/read` and sparse `account/rateLimits/updated`
notifications now include an additive nullable
`rateLimits.individualLimit` field:
```json
{
"individualLimit": {
"limit": "25000",
"used": "8000",
"remainingPercent": 68,
"resetsAt": 1778137680
}
}
```
In an `account/rateLimits/read` response, `null` means no monthly limit
is available. `account/rateLimits/updated` remains a sparse rolling
notification: clients merge available values into their most recent
`account/rateLimits/read` snapshot or refetch. Nullable account metadata
in a rolling notification does not clear a previously observed value.
## Design decisions
- Extend the existing rate-limit snapshot instead of introducing a
separate request or wire-level update protocol.
- Keep the Codex projection narrow: `/status` needs the effective limit,
current usage, remaining percentage, and reset timestamp.
- Render the monthly row through the existing progress-bar renderer,
with one optional detail line for `8,000 of 25,000 credits used`.
- Keep the backend response optional so existing accounts and older
usage states preserve their current behavior.
- Preserve cached monthly metadata when sparse rolling notifications
omit it. Live account-usage reads remain authoritative and can clear a
removed limit.
## Visual evidence
```text
Monthly credit limit: [██████████████░░░░░░] 68% left (resets 07:08 on 7 May)
8,000 of 25,000 credits used
```
Snapshot:
`codex-rs/tui/src/status/snapshots/codex_tui__status__tests__status_snapshot_includes_enterprise_monthly_credit_limit.snap`
## Testing
Tests: generated app-server schema verification, protocol tests,
backend-client tests, app-server integration coverage, TUI snapshot
coverage, formatting, and workspace lint cleanup.
## Summary
- Moves the existing `codex-cloud-requirements` crate to
`codex-cloud-config`.
- Updates workspace dependencies and imports to the new crate name.
- Intentionally keeps runtime behavior unchanged: this still fetches the
legacy cloud requirements endpoint.
## Details
This PR exists to make the lineage obvious before the bundle migration.
GitHub should show the old `codex-rs/cloud-requirements/src/lib.rs`
implementation as moved to `codex-rs/cloud-config/src/lib.rs`, rather
than as unrelated new code.
The follow-up PR adapts this moved crate to the new config bundle API
and switches runtime consumers over.
## 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.
## Test Plan
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `cargo nextest run --no-fail-fast -p codex-app-server-protocol
schema_fixtures`
- `cargo nextest run --no-fail-fast -p codex-app-server
thread_shell_command_history_responses_exclude_persisted_command_executions`
- `cargo nextest run --no-fail-fast -p codex-rollout -p
codex-thread-store`
- final `rg` for removed flag/type names
## Why
The TUI shortcut overlay used static labels for `Tab` and `Ctrl+C`, even
though both keys change behavior while a task is running. That made the
visible help misleading: idle `Tab` submits rather than queues, and
active-turn `Ctrl+C` interrupts rather than exits.
Closes#25531.
Closes#25564.
## What Changed
- Pass task-running state into the shortcut overlay renderer.
- Render `Tab` as `submit message` while idle and `queue message` while
work is running.
- Render `Ctrl+C` as `exit` while idle and `interrupt` while work is
running.
- Add snapshot coverage for the active-work shortcut overlay and update
idle overlay snapshots.
## How to Test
1. Start Codex and open the shortcut overlay with `?` while no task is
running.
2. Confirm the overlay shows `tab to submit message` and `ctrl + c to
exit`.
3. Start a task, then open or keep the shortcut overlay visible while
work is running.
4. Confirm the overlay shows `tab to queue message` and `ctrl + c to
interrupt`.
5. Type a follow-up prompt during active work and press `Tab`; confirm
it queues rather than submitting immediately.
Targeted tests:
- `just test -p codex-tui footer_snapshots`
- `just test -p codex-tui footer_mode_snapshots`
## Validation Notes
`just test -p codex-tui` currently has two unrelated guardian
feature-flag test failures on this base:
-
`app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_manual_review_policy_without_history`
-
`app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_review_policy_and_restores_default`
`just argument-comment-lint codex-rs/tui/src/bottom_pane/footer.rs`
could not run locally because the prebuilt wrapper requires `dotslash`;
the touched Rust diff was manually inspected for opaque positional
literals.
Closes#24886.
## Why
Users can configure the TUI status line and terminal title with
`model-with-reasoning`, but issue #24886 asks for a compact
reasoning-only item. That lets a setup show just `default`, `low`,
`medium`, `high`, or `xhigh` without repeating the model name.
## What changed
- Added a `reasoning` item for `/statusline` and `/title` setup flows.
- Rendered the item from the effective reasoning effort, including
collaboration-mode overrides.
- Registered `reasoning` with `codex doctor` so Codex-generated
terminal-title config is not reported as invalid.
- Updated TUI setup snapshots so the picker previews include the new
item.
## Summary
Fixes#25295.
The slash-command popup reused its previous `ScrollState` when the
composer filter token changed. After scrolling the full `/` command
list, typing a narrower filter such as `/st` could clamp the stale
selection into the filtered results and highlight the wrong command.
This resets the popup selection and viewport only when the parsed filter
token changes, so normal arrow navigation is preserved while new filters
start at the first match.
## Summary
I frequently want to be able to paste into the searchable menu -- the
most common use-case here is when specifying an upstream for a
`/review`, where I copy the upstream from an open terminal.
## TL;DR
When you press Esc or Ctrl+C after sending a prompt but before any
output was rendering, it restores the last composer and the message.
## Summary
Cancelling a prompt immediately after submission should behave like
returning to edit that prompt, not like discarding the user's draft.
Today, pressing `Esc` or `Ctrl+C` before Codex responds leaves the
submitted prompt in the transcript and returns an empty composer,
forcing the user to recall or retype it.
When an interrupted turn has not produced substantive visible output,
restore its submitted prompt directly into the composer and roll back
that latest turn. This also covers the first prompt in a fresh thread,
before the TUI has retained a local user-history cell. The restored
draft keeps its text, image attachments, and active collaboration mode
so it can be edited and resubmitted in place.
Restoration is intentionally suppressed once the turn has produced
user-visible activity such as assistant output, tool work, hooks, or
patches. A transient thinking status does not make the prompt
ineligible. Rollback also rebuilds terminal scrollback from the retained
transcript cells so repeated cancellations and terminal resizes do not
duplicate history.
## How to Test
1. Start the TUI with `cargo run -p codex-cli --bin codex`.
2. In a fresh thread, submit the first prompt and press `Esc` before
Codex emits substantive output. Confirm that the prompt returns to the
composer for editing and its submitted transcript row is removed.
3. Repeat with `Ctrl+C`, then repeat after at least one completed turn.
Confirm the same behavior.
4. Submit a prompt, wait for assistant output or tool activity, then
cancel. Confirm that the transcript remains intact and the prompt is not
restored into the composer.
5. Cancel several output-free prompts and resize the terminal between
attempts. Confirm that the startup banner, tip, and transcript history
do not duplicate in scrollback.
Targeted tests:
- `just test -p codex-tui cancelled_turn_edit_restores_prompt`
- `just test -p codex-tui
output_free_interrupted_turn_requests_prompt_restore`
- `just test -p codex-tui
visible_output_prevents_cancelled_turn_prompt_restore`
- `just test -p codex-tui
thinking_status_keeps_cancelled_turn_prompt_restore_eligible`
- `just test -p codex-tui
patch_activity_prevents_cancelled_turn_prompt_restore`
The full `just test -p codex-tui` run completed with `2746` passing
tests and two unrelated existing guardian feature-flag failures. `just
argument-comment-lint` remains blocked locally by the existing Bazel
LLVM `compiler-rt` sanitizer-header glob failure; the touched Rust diff
was manually audited for positional literal comments.
## 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.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-rollout`
- `just test -p codex-thread-store`
- `just fix -p codex-rollout`
- `just fix -p codex-thread-store`
- `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
PR 3 of 5 in the cloud-managed config client stack.
Adds enterprise-managed cloud config as a first-class config layer
source. The layer metadata is preserved through config loading,
diagnostics, debug output, hook attribution, and app-server protocol
surfaces.
## Details
- Enterprise-managed config becomes a normal config layer source with
backend-supplied `id` and display `name` attached for provenance.
- These layers are designed to behave like non-file managed config: they
can surface syntax/type diagnostics by layer name even though there is
no physical config file.
- Relative path settings are resolved from a stored config base so
cloud-delivered config remains consistent with existing MDM-delivered
config semantics.
- Hook attribution distinguishes config-delivered hooks from
requirements-delivered hooks via `HookSource::CloudManagedConfig`.
- This remains pull-based and snapshot-oriented; the PR adds layer
identity/diagnostics, not dynamic reload behavior.
## Validation
Validated through the targeted stack checks after rebasing onto current
`main`:
- Rust crate tests for
config/hooks/cloud-config/backend-client/app-server-protocol
- Filtered `codex-core` and `codex-app-server` `cloud_config_bundle`
tests
- Python generated-file contract test
- `cargo shear --deny-warnings`
- Targeted `argument-comment-lint` for config/hooks
## Why
Closes#25006.
`tui.keymap` currently rejects `F13` even though Codex's terminal event
layer can report higher function keys. This prevents users from using
common remappings such as Caps Lock to `F13`.
## What Changed
- Define a shared portable upper bound of `F24` for stored TUI
keybindings.
- Accept `f13` through `f24` in config normalization and runtime
parsing.
- Allow `/keymap` capture to persist `F13` through `F24`.
- Update the unsupported-function-key error and add boundary tests for
`F13`, `F24`, and `F25`.
## How to Test
1. Add a binding such as:
```toml
[tui.keymap.global]
open_transcript = "f13"
```
2. Start Codex and press the remapped `F13` key.
3. Confirm Codex loads the config without the previous `F1 through F12`
error and the action runs.
4. Open `/keymap`, capture `F13` for an action, and confirm the saved
binding is `f13`.
5. As a regression check, try to capture `F25` and confirm Codex reports
that only `F1` through `F24` can be stored.
Targeted tests:
- `just test -p codex-config`
- `just test -p codex-tui function_keys`
Full `just test -p codex-tui` completed with 2,752 passing tests, 4
skipped tests, and two unrelated guardian feature-flag failures:
-
`app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_review_policy_and_restores_default`
-
`app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_manual_review_policy_without_history`
## Problem
Saved threads can already be archived through app-server RPCs, but the
command line did not expose direct archive or unarchive commands.
## Solution
Add `codex archive <thread>` and `codex unarchive <thread>`, resolving
UUIDs or exact thread names before calling the existing `thread/archive`
and `thread/unarchive` RPCs. The commands support scoped remote flags so
callers can target remote app-server endpoints when archiving or
unarchiving threads.
This also fixes a long-standing bug in `codex resume <thread id>` and
`codex fork <thread id>` that I found when testing the new commands.
These operations shouldn't be allowed on archived sessions. They now
fail with an error that tells the user to run `codex unarchive <thread
id>` first.
## Verification
Added app-server coverage for rejecting archived thread resume by id and
checking that the error includes the matching `codex unarchive <thread
id>` command.
# Why
Managed requirements can already constrain sandbox policy choices, but
Windows sandbox implementation selection was still resolved
independently from those requirements. That left the TUI able to
continue through the unelevated fallback even when an organization wants
to require the elevated Windows sandbox implementation.
# What
- Add `[windows].allowed_sandbox_implementations` requirements support
for the Windows `elevated` and `unelevated` implementations.
- Apply that allowlist during core config resolution so disallowed
configured or feature-selected Windows sandbox implementations fall back
to an allowed implementation with the existing requirements warning
path.
- Reuse the existing TUI Windows setup prompts to block disallowed
unelevated continuation, keep required elevated setup in front of the
user, and refuse to persist a TUI-selected Windows sandbox mode that
requirements disallow.
# Semantics
| Allowed | Selected | Effective |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `["elevated"]` | `unelevated` / unset | `elevated` |
| `["unelevated"]` | `elevated` / unset | `unelevated` |
| `["elevated", "unelevated"]` | `elevated` | `elevated` |
| `["elevated", "unelevated"]` | `unelevated` | `unelevated` |
| `["elevated", "unelevated"]` | unset | `elevated` |
Availability is handled by interactive setup surfaces after allowlist
resolution. If the effective elevated implementation is not ready,
elevated-only requirements block on setup. When unelevated is also
allowed, the UI may offer the existing unelevated fallback.
## TUI Screens
If elevated setup is not already complete:
```
Your organization requires the default Codex agent sandbox to continue. Set it up to protect your files and control
network access.
Learn more <https://developers.openai.com/codex/windows>
› 1. Set up default sandbox (requires Administrator permissions)
2. Quit
```
If admin setup fails under `["elevated"]`:
```
Couldn't set up your sandbox with Administrator permissions
Your organization requires the default sandbox before Codex can continue.
Learn more <https://developers.openai.com/codex/windows>
› 1. Try setting up admin sandbox again
2. Quit
```
# Next Steps
- extend the requirements/readout surface, such as
`configRequirements/read`, so clients can inspect the loaded
`[windows].allowed_sandbox_implementations` requirement instead of
inferring it from Windows setup state
- consider extending `windowsSandbox/readiness` as well
- update the App startup guide, setup flow, and banner surfaces so an
elevated-only requirement omits any continue-unelevated escape hatch and
blocks startup until a permitted implementation is ready;
- preserve the existing unelevated fallback path when requirements allow
it, including the `["unelevated"]` case where elevated is disallowed
## Summary
- add Vim normal-mode `s` support to substitute the character under the
cursor and enter insert mode
- fix Vim normal-mode `o` so opening below the final line moves the
cursor onto the new blank line
- update keymap config/schema and keymap picker snapshots for the new
action
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `just write-config-schema`
- `just test -p codex-config`
- focused `just test -p codex-tui` coverage for the Vim `s` and `o`
behavior, keymap conflict handling, and keymap picker snapshots
- `cargo insta pending-snapshots --manifest-path tui/Cargo.toml`
- `git diff --check`
## Notes
A full `just test -p codex-tui` run still has two unrelated Guardian
feature-flag failures in this checkout:
-
`app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_review_policy_and_restores_default`
-
`app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_manual_review_policy_without_history`
## Why
TUI users can archive saved sessions from other surfaces, but there is
no in-session command for archiving the active session. Since archiving
the active session also exits the TUI, the command should ask for
explicit confirmation instead of firing immediately.
I'm also working on [a companion
PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/25021) that adds `codex
archive` and `codex unarchive` top-level CLI commands.
## What changed
- Adds a new `/archive` slash command described as `archive this session
and exit`.
- Shows a confirmation dialog with `No, don't archive` selected first
and `Yes, archive and exit` as the explicit action.
- On confirmation, calls the existing `thread/archive` app-server RPC
for the active main session and exits after success.
- Keeps `/archive` disabled while a task is running and unavailable in
side conversations.
## Verification
Added focused TUI coverage for the `/archive` confirmation flow,
disabled-while-task-running behavior, and the `/ar` slash-command popup
snapshot.
## Summary
The desktop app now presents the on-request permissions mode as `Ask for
approval` and the manual-review-backed mode as `Approve for me`. The TUI
still exposed older/internal labels like `Default` and `Auto-review`,
which made the same underlying settings look different across clients.
This updates the TUI UX copy to match the app without changing the
underlying default behavior. Fresh threads continue to use the existing
on-request approval mode, now displayed as `Ask for approval`.
The label changes cover `/permissions`, explicit profile permissions
menus, status surfaces, config persistence history/error text, and the
corresponding TUI snapshots.

## Why
Standalone `web.run` calls run in the extension, so they need normal
web-search progress activity while a request is in flight and durable
completed activity after a thread is reloaded.
Follow-up to #23823; uses the extension turn-item emission path added in
#24813.
## What changed
- Emit standalone `web.run` start/completion items through the host
turn-item emitter, preserving standard client delivery and rollout
persistence.
- Include useful completion detail for queries, image queries, and
literal-URL `open`/`find` commands.
- Render completed searches as `Searched the web` or `Searched the web
for <detail>`, with snapshot coverage for the detail-free case.
- Extend the app-server round-trip test to verify completed search
activity is reconstructed by `thread/read` after a fresh-process reload.
## Testing
- `just test -p codex-web-search-extension`
- `just test -p codex-app-server -E
"test(standalone_web_search_round_trips_encrypted_output)"`
# Why
Fixes#24529. Completed hook output in the TUI rendered each
`HookOutputEntry` as one ratatui line, so explicit newlines inside hook
output were not shown as separate transcript rows. That made multiline
`SessionStart.additionalContext` hard to inspect even though the
model-facing context path preserved the original text.
# What
- Split completed hook output entries on explicit newlines before
rendering them in `codex-rs/tui/src/history_cell/hook_cell.rs`.
- Keep the hook output prefix, such as `hook context:` or `warning:`, on
the first physical line only.
- Preserve explicit blank lines and render continuation lines with the
hook body indent.
- Add unit coverage for multiline context and warning output, plus a
chatwidget snapshot regression for `SessionStart` history output.
# Testing
- `cargo nextest run -p codex-tui completed_hook_multiline
hook_completed_before_reveal_renders_completed_without_running_flash`
- `just argument-comment-lint -p codex-tui -- --ignore-rust-version
--lib --tests`
## Why
When the TUI resumes a thread, transcript replay renders prior user
messages but did not seed the composer history. That leaves the resumed
session with empty in-memory prompt history, so pressing Up can fall
through to persisted global history and surface a prompt from another
thread.
The expected behavior is that prompts from the resumed thread are
recalled first, with global history only as a fallback.
## What changed
- Record replayed user messages into the composer history during resume
replay.
- Preserve the existing persisted history format and avoid any startup
history scan.
- Add focused TUI coverage showing replayed prompts are recalled before
persisted global history.
## Validation
- Added `replayed_user_messages_seed_composer_history` in
`codex-rs/tui/src/chatwidget/tests/history_replay.rs`.
- `just test -p codex-tui replayed_user_messages_seed_composer_history`
passed.
## Why
#23813 switches the Windows sandbox runner path to `PermissionProfile`,
but it still left one runtime anchor for resolving symbolic
`:workspace_roots` entries. That is not enough once a turn has multiple
effective workspace roots: exact entries and deny globs under
`:workspace_roots` need to be materialized for every runtime root before
the command runner chooses token mode or builds ACL plans.
## What Changed
- Replaces the Windows runner/setup `permission_profile_cwd` plumbing
with `workspace_roots: Vec<AbsolutePathBuf>`.
- Resolves Windows-local `PermissionProfile` data with
`materialize_project_roots_with_workspace_roots(...)` instead of the
single-cwd helper.
- Threads `Config::effective_workspace_roots()` through core execution,
unified exec, TUI setup/read-grant flows, app-server setup, app-server
`command/exec`, and `debug sandbox` on Windows.
- Preserves those workspace roots through the zsh-fork escalation
executor instead of rebuilding them from `sandbox_policy_cwd`.
- Makes `ExecRequest::new(...)` and the remaining
`build_exec_request(...)` helper path take
`windows_sandbox_workspace_roots` explicitly so new call sites cannot
silently fall back to `vec![cwd]`.
- Clarifies the `debug sandbox` non-Windows comment: remaining
cwd-dependent resolution still uses `sandbox_policy_cwd`, while
`:workspace_roots` entries are already materialized from config roots.
- Updates elevated runner IPC `SpawnRequest` to send `workspace_roots`
and bumps the framed IPC protocol version to `3` for the payload shape
change.
- Adds Windows-local resolver coverage for expanding exact and glob
`:workspace_roots` entries across multiple roots, plus core helper
coverage proving explicit roots are preserved.
## Verification

A local macOS cross-check with `cargo check --target
x86_64-pc-windows-msvc ...` did not reach crate Rust code because native
dependencies require Windows SDK headers (`windows.h` / `assert.h`) in
this environment; Windows CI remains the real target validation.
Two local targeted filters compile but do not run assertions on macOS:
`env -u CODEX_NETWORK_PROXY_ACTIVE -u CODEX_NETWORK_ALLOW_LOCAL_BINDING
just test -p codex-app-server --lib command_exec_processor` matched zero
tests, and `just test -p codex-linux-sandbox landlock` matched zero
tests because the landlock suite is Linux-only.
## 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
- `just fmt`
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol`
- `just fix -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `just fix -p codex-protocol`
- `git diff --check`
## Why
`/diff` is intended to display working-tree changes, but its Git
invocations honored repository-selected executable helpers. A repository
could configure diff/text conversion helpers, clean/process filters,
`core.fsmonitor`, or `post-index-change` hooks that execute when a user
runs `/diff`.
Fixes
[PSEC-4395](https://linear.app/openai/issue/PSEC-4395/codex-cli-diff-executes-repository-selected-diff-helpers).
## What Changed
- Pass `--no-textconv` and `--no-ext-diff` for tracked and untracked
diff generation.
- Discover configured `filter.<driver>.clean` and `.process` entries,
then neutralize the selected drivers through structured
`GIT_CONFIG_KEY_*` / `GIT_CONFIG_VALUE_*` overrides, including driver
names containing `=`.
- Run all `/diff` Git probes with `core.fsmonitor=false` and a null
`core.hooksPath`.
- Use short submodule reporting while ignoring dirty submodule
worktrees, since inspecting a checked-out submodule for dirtiness can
execute filters from that child repository. This intentionally omits
dirty-only submodule markers in order to preserve the non-executing
security boundary.
- Add real-Git marker tests covering filters, fsmonitor, hooks, and
configured helpers inside checked-out submodules.
## How to Test
1. In a repository with ordinary tracked and untracked edits, run
`/diff`.
2. Confirm the normal working-tree diff is shown for top-level files.
3. Run the targeted tests below; they configure executable marker
helpers for repository filters, fsmonitor, hooks, and a checked-out
submodule, then verify `/diff` does not invoke them.
4. Confirm a dirty-only submodule does not cause Codex to enter the
submodule and execute its configured helper.
Targeted tests:
- `just test -p codex-tui get_git_diff_`
Validation note: `just test -p codex-tui` runs the new coverage, but
this worktree currently also has two unrelated failing guardian tests:
`app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_review_policy_and_restores_default`
and
`app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_manual_review_policy_without_history`.
This change keeps unified @mentions behind the mentions_v2 gate, moves
the flag to under-development, and polishes mention rendering/history
behavior.
It also adds a few small improvements to the mentions feature around
mention rendering and history round-tripping for plugin/tool mentions in
message edit scenarios. Plugin selections now insert `@` mentions with
better casing, and saved history preserves the visible sigil so recalled
messages look the same as what the user typed.
- Preserves `@` sigils when encoding/decoding mention history for
tool/plugin paths.
- Improves plugin mention insertion so display names/casing are
reflected more cleanly in the composer.
- Update composer to render user-entered plugin mentions in the same
color as the mentions menu. ALso applies to recalled/edited messages.
- Left/right arrows no longer switch unified-mention search modes after
an @mention has already been accepted (Ex: arrowing left through a
composed message that contains @mentions).
- Keeps bound mentions stable around punctuation, so accepted `@`
mentions do not reopen the popup and punctuated `$` mentions still
persist to cross-session history.
**Steps to test**
- Ensure mentions_v2 is enabled through configuration or `--enable
mentions_v2`
- Type `@` in the TUI composer and verify filesystem/plugin/skill
results are displayed in the unified mentions menu.
- Select a plugin mention from the `@` popup and confirm the inserted
text is an `@...` mention with casing, then recall/edit the message and
confirm it still renders as `@...`.
- Mention a skill and verify that skills still insert as `$skill`
mentions rather than `@` mentions.
- Verify punctuated mentions such as `@plugin.` and `($skill)` keep
their bound mention behavior across editing and history recall.
## Summary
The client currently calls `thread/resume` to establish live updates and
immediately follows it with `thread/turns/list` to hydrate recent turns.
This lets `thread/resume` return that page directly, eliminating a round
trip and the ordering/deduplication gap between the two calls.
Experimental clients opt in with `initialTurnsPage: { limit,
sortDirection, itemsView }`. The response returns `initialTurnsPage` as
a `TurnsPage`, including cursors for paging further back in history.
Keeping the controls in a nested opt-in object provides the useful
`thread/turns/list` knobs without spreading page-specific parameters
across `thread/resume`.
## Verification
- `just fmt`
- `just write-app-server-schema --experimental`
- `just write-app-server-schema`

- `just fix -p codex-app-server-protocol -p codex-app-server`
## Why
The key/value markdown table renderer added in #24636 still operates on
`Line` values, while table cells and rendered table output now carry
`HyperlinkLine`. That mismatch breaks `codex-tui` compilation on `main`
and would risk losing semantic web-link annotations if corrected by
flattening the values.
## What changed
- Make key/value record rendering wrap and emit `HyperlinkLine` values
consistently with the existing grid renderer.
- Remap wrapped hyperlink ranges and shift them when value content is
prefixed by record-mode indentation or labels.
- Add focused coverage verifying key/value fallback output preserves
web-link destinations.
## Verification
- `just test -p codex-tui -E
'test(key_value_table_keeps_web_annotations) |
test(/table_renders_(key_value_records_when_compact_fragmentation_is_systemic_snapshot|stacked_key_value_records_when_path_column_becomes_too_narrow_snapshot|records_when_multiple_prose_columns_are_starved_snapshot)/)'`
## Stack
- **Base: #24489 [1 of 2]** - render markdown tables in app style.
- **Current: #24636 [2 of 2]** - render cramped markdown tables as
key/value records.
Review this PR against `fcoury/app-style-markdown-tables`; it contains
only the fallback behavior for cramped tables.
## Why
The row-separated markdown table rendering in #24489 remains readable
while columns have usable room. Once long links or multiple prose-heavy
columns are compressed into narrow allocations, however, the grid can
turn words and paths into tall vertical strips that are difficult to
scan. In those cases the content matters more than preserving the grid
shape.

- Detect tables whose grid allocation causes systemic token
fragmentation or starves multiple prose-heavy columns.
- Render those tables as repeated key/value records instead of retaining
an unreadable grid.
- Use aligned label/value records when there is useful horizontal room,
and switch to a stacked narrow-record layout where each label is
followed by a full-width value when width is especially constrained.
- Preserve the themed label color, rich inline formatting, links, and
the existing grid presentation for tables that remain readable.
- Add snapshot coverage for path-heavy narrow tables, prose-heavy issue
tables, systemic compact fragmentation, and a control case that should
continue to render as a grid.
## How to Test
1. Start Codex from this branch and render a normal multi-column
markdown table at a comfortable terminal width. Confirm it still appears
as the styled row-separated grid from #24489.
2. Render a table containing a long linked record identifier or
file-like value, then narrow the terminal until the grid would split the
value into vertical fragments. Confirm it switches to key/value records,
with labels above values at very narrow widths.
3. Render a table with multiple prose-heavy columns, such as an issue
summary table with `Issue`, `Activity`, `Complexity`, and `Why start`.
Confirm a cramped width switches to records rather than wrapping several
columns into hard-to-read strips.
4. Render a compact table where only one value wraps mildly. Confirm it
stays in grid form rather than switching prematurely.
## Validation
- Ran `just test -p codex-tui` while developing the fallback and
reviewed/accepted the intended new markdown-render snapshots. The
command still reports two unrelated existing guardian feature-flag test
failures outside this diff.
- Ran `just fix -p codex-tui` and `just fmt` after the Rust changes were
complete.
- `just argument-comment-lint` cannot reach source linting locally
because Bazel fails while resolving LLVM sanitizer headers; touched
positional literal callsites were inspected manually and annotated where
needed.
## Why
Wrapped URLs in rich TUI output, especially URLs rendered inside
Markdown tables, are split across terminal rows. In terminals that
support OSC 8 hyperlinks, treating each visible fragment as part of the
complete destination enables reliable open-link and copy-link actions
even after table layout wraps the URL.
This addresses the semantic-link portion of #12200 and the behavior
described in
https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/12200#issuecomment-4535452980. It
does not change ordinary drag-selection across bordered table rows.
## What Changed
- Added shared TUI OSC 8 support that validates `http://` and `https://`
destinations, sanitizes terminal payloads, and applies metadata
separately from visible line width/layout.
- Added semantic web-link annotations to assistant and proposed-plan
Markdown, including explicit web links and bare web URLs in prose and
table cells while excluding code and non-web Markdown destinations.
- Preserved complete URL targets through table wrapping, narrow pipe
fallback, streaming, transcript overlay rendering, history insertion,
and resize replay.
- Routed intentional Codex-owned links in notices,
status/setup/app-link, feedback, onboarding, MCP/plugin help, memories,
and update surfaces through the shared hyperlink handling.
## How to Test
1. Run Codex in a terminal with OSC 8 link support, such as Ghostty, and
request an assistant response containing a Markdown table whose last
column contains a long `https://` URL.
2. Make the terminal narrow enough for the URL to wrap across multiple
bordered table rows.
3. Use the terminal's open-link or copy-link action on more than one
wrapped URL fragment and confirm each fragment resolves to the complete
original URL.
4. Resize the terminal after the table is rendered and repeat the link
action to confirm the destination survives scrollback replay.
5. Open the transcript overlay while rich output is present and confirm
web links remain interactive there.
6. As a regression check, render inline/fenced code containing URL text
and a Markdown link such as
`[https://example.com](mailto:support@example.com)`; confirm these do
not acquire a web OSC 8 destination.
Targeted automated coverage exercised Markdown links and exclusions,
wrapped and pipe-fallback tables, streaming/transcript overlay
propagation, status-link truncation, and rendered word-wrapping cell
alignment. `just test -p codex-tui` was also run; it passed the
hyperlink coverage and reproduced two unrelated existing guardian
feature-flag test failures.
## Stack
- **Current: #24489 [1 of 2]** - render markdown tables in app style.
- **Stacked follow-up: #24636 [2 of 2]** - render cramped markdown
tables as key/value records.
## Why
Markdown tables currently render as boxed terminal grids, which gives
ordinary assistant output a heavier visual treatment than surrounding
rich text. This row-separated layout is the best match for how the App
renders tables, while accented headers remain distinguishable even when
a terminal font renders bold subtly.

## What Changed
- Render markdown tables as padded, aligned rows without an enclosing
box.
- Style table headers with the active syntax-theme accent plus bold
text, while keeping separators low contrast and theme-aware.
- Use a segmented heavy header rule and thin body-row rules, preserving
wrapping, narrow-width fallback, streaming parity, and rich-history
rendering.
- Update focused assertions and snapshots for the final table layout.
## How to Test
1. Render a markdown table in the TUI with several rows and columns.
2. Confirm the header uses the active theme accent, rows use
one-character interior padding, and the table has no enclosing box.
3. Confirm the header is followed by segmented `━` rules and multiple
body rows are separated by muted segmented `─` rules.
4. Render the same table while streaming and in history/raw-mode
toggles; the final rich layout should remain stable.
5. Render a narrow table with long content and verify wrapping or pipe
fallback does not overflow.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-tui table`
- `just test -p codex-tui streaming::controller::tests`
- `just argument-comment-lint-from-source -p codex-tui -- --all-targets`
- `just fix -p codex-tui`
- `just fmt`
`just test -p codex-tui` was also run after accepting the snapshots; it
fails only in the unrelated existing guardian app tests
`update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_review_policy_and_restores_default`
and
`update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_manual_review_policy_without_history`.
## Why
Interrupting an active turn is currently fixed to `Esc`, which is easy
to hit accidentally and cannot be customized through `/keymap`. This
gives users a less accidental binding while preserving the existing
default.
## What Changed
- Adds `tui.keymap.chat.interrupt_turn` to `/keymap`, defaulting to
`esc` and supporting remapping or unbinding.
- Uses the configured interrupt binding for running-turn status, queued
steer interruption, and `request_user_input`, including the visible
hints.
- Preserves local `Esc` behavior for popups, Vim insert mode, and
`/agent` editing while validating conflicts with fixed/backtrack and
request-input navigation bindings.
- Adds behavior and snapshot coverage for remapped interruption paths.
## How to Test
1. Run Codex and open `/keymap`, then set **Interrupt Turn** to `f12`.
2. Start a turn and confirm `Esc` no longer interrupts it while `f12`
does; the running hint should display `f12 to interrupt`.
3. Queue a steer while a turn is running and confirm the preview
displays `f12`; pressing it should interrupt and submit the steer
immediately.
4. Trigger a `request_user_input` prompt and confirm its footer uses
`f12`; with notes open, `Esc` should still clear notes while `f12`
interrupts the turn.
5. Clear the Interrupt Turn binding and confirm the key-specific
interrupt hint is removed while `Ctrl+C` remains available.
Targeted validation:
- `just write-config-schema`
- `just fix -p codex-config`
- `just fix -p codex-tui`
- `just fmt`
- `just argument-comment-lint-from-source -p codex-config -p codex-tui`
- `just test -p codex-config`
- `cargo insta pending-snapshots --manifest-path tui/Cargo.toml`
- `just test -p codex-tui keymap_setup::tests`
- `just test -p codex-tui` (fails in two pre-existing guardian
feature-flag tests unrelated to this diff; the intentional picker
snapshot updates were reviewed and accepted)
## Why
Vim mode currently supports some normal-mode operators and motions, but
common text-object combinations like `ciw`, `daw`, `di(`, and
quote/bracket variants are still missing. That makes the composer feel
incomplete for users who expect operator + text object editing to work
inside prompts.
Closes#21383.
## What Changed
- Add Vim pending-state support for operator/text-object sequences.
- Add `c` as a normal-mode operator for text objects, so combinations
like `ciw` delete the object and enter insert mode.
- Support word, WORD, delimiter, and quote text objects:
- `iw`, `aw`, `iW`, `aW`
- `i(`, `a(`, `i)`, `a)`, `ib`, `ab`
- `i[`, `a[`, `i]`, `a]`
- `i{`, `a{`, `i}`, `a}`, `iB`, `aB`
- `i"`, `a"`, `i'`, `a'`, `i\``, `a\``
- Add configurable keymap entries and keymap picker coverage for the new
Vim text-object context.
- Regenerate the config schema and update keymap picker snapshots.
## How to Test
Manual smoke test:
1. Start Codex with Vim composer mode enabled.
2. Type a draft such as:
```text
alpha beta gamma
call(foo[bar], {"x": "hello world"})
say "one \"two\" three" now
```
3. Put the cursor on `beta`, press `ciw`, and confirm `beta` is removed
and the composer enters insert mode.
4. Escape back to normal mode, put the cursor on `gamma`, press `daw`,
and confirm `gamma` plus surrounding whitespace is removed.
5. Put the cursor inside `foo[bar]`, press `di[`, and confirm only `bar`
is removed.
6. Put the cursor inside `call(...)`, press `da(`, and confirm the whole
parenthesized section is removed.
7. Put the cursor inside the quoted text, press `ci"`, and confirm the
quote contents are removed and insert mode starts.
8. Verify cancellation does not edit text: press `d` then `Esc`, and
press `d` then `i` then `Esc`.
Targeted tests:
- `cargo test -p codex-tui --lib vim_`
- `cargo nextest run -p codex-tui keymap_setup::tests`
Additional local checks:
- `just write-config-schema`
- `just fmt`
- `just fix -p codex-tui`
- `git diff --check`
- `cargo insta pending-snapshots --manifest-path tui/Cargo.toml`
Local full-suite note: `just test -p codex-tui` ran to completion. The
keymap snapshot failures were expected and accepted. Two unrelated
guardian feature-flag tests still fail locally:
-
`app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_review_policy_and_restores_default`
-
`app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_manual_review_policy_without_history`
`just argument-comment-lint` is currently blocked locally by Bazel
analysis before the lint runs because `compiler-rt` has an empty
`include/sanitizer/*.h` glob in the local Bazel cache. The touched Rust
diff was manually inspected for opaque positional literals.
## Context
`docs/tui-chat-composer.md` was removed by #20896 as part of removing
local-only docs/specs from the repository. I checked the #20896 file
list and the merge commit: the composer doc was deleted, not moved or
copied, and current `main` does not contain a replacement composer
narrative doc.
Current guidance should keep contributors and agents focused on the docs
that still exist: the module docs in `chat_composer.rs` and
`paste_burst.rs`.
## Summary
- Removes the scoped TUI bottom-pane AGENTS.md requirement to update
`docs/tui-chat-composer.md`.
- Removes stale module-doc references to that deleted narrative doc from
`chat_composer.rs` and `paste_burst.rs`.
## Validation
- Checked #20896 and the merge commit with rename/copy detection to
confirm `docs/tui-chat-composer.md` was deleted rather than moved.
- Searched current `main` for a replacement composer narrative doc.
- Not run; documentation-only change.
This adds slash command completion behavior for argument-taking
commands, where text after the partially typed command becomes inline
arguments instead of being discarded. This addresses the workflow of
drafting text first, moving to the start, and completing a slash command
around that existing draft. Before this change, this workflow would
remove all user-input text aside from the slash command, which can be
frustrating if the user had just typed out a long and well thought out
goal.
- Preserves the draft tail for inline-argument slash commands like
`/goal` and `/review` when completing with `Tab` or `Enter`.
- Keeps popup filtering focused on the command fragment under the cursor
rather than the full draft text.
- Leaves slash commands that do not support inline arguments unchanged,
so completion still replaces the existing draft tail for those commands.
- Adds focused TUI tests under slash input covering preserved arguments,
cursor edge cases, and the negative case for a command without inline
args.
Follow-up simplification and test relocation from #24683 folded into
this PR.

# Summary
The standalone update action currently downloads and runs the Codex
installer as an interactive command. When an existing managed Codex
install is present, accepting an update can therefore enter an installer
prompt instead of completing the update.
This change runs the standalone installer with `CODEX_NON_INTERACTIVE=1`
on macOS/Linux and Windows. The installer environment-variable support
is introduced by the parent PR; this PR wires that behavior into the
Codex CLI update action. The rendered Windows command remains
shell-safe, and long update commands wrap within the update-notice card.
The standard test target snapshots the standalone notice for both
platforms.

Standalone updater-shaped macOS install with an existing npm-managed
Codex on `PATH`:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a27fe9e9-db3a-4c39-a514-24bd3d1f01e8
# Testing
Tests: targeted `codex-tui` update-action and update-notice snapshot
tests, Rust formatting, benchmark smoke validation, macOS live-terminal
standalone-update smoke testing, Windows ARM64 PowerShell
standalone-update smoke testing through Parallels, and CI.
## Why
The TUI Vim composer currently diverges from normal Vim editing in two
common workflows: pressing `e` repeatedly can remain stuck at an
existing word end, and normal mode does not support `C` for changing
through the end of the line. The existing `D` behavior also removes the
newline when the cursor is already at the line boundary, which makes the
new `C` action and existing deletion action surprising in multiline
prompts.
Closes#23926.
Closes#24238.
## What Changed
- Make normal-mode `e` advance from the current word end to the next
word end, including for operator motions such as `de`.
- Add configurable Vim normal-mode `change_to_line_end` behavior, bound
to `C` by default, which deletes to the end of the current line and
enters Insert mode.
- Keep the newline intact when `D` or `C` is pressed at the end-of-line
boundary.
- Add regression coverage for repeated `e`, `de`, `C`, and the multiline
`C`/`D` boundary behavior.
- Regenerate the config schema and update the keymap picker snapshots
for the new Vim action.
## How to Test
1. Run Codex with Vim composer mode enabled:
```bash
cd codex-rs
cargo run --bin codex -- -c tui.vim_mode_default=true
```
2. Enter `alpha beta gamma`, press `Esc`, `0`, then press `e`
repeatedly.
Confirm the cursor advances through the ends of `alpha`, `beta`, and
`gamma`.
3. Enter `hello world`, press `Esc`, `0`, `w`, then `C`.
Confirm `world` is deleted and the composer enters Insert mode.
4. Enter a multiline prompt with `hello` above `world`, press `Esc`,
`k`, `$`, and then `D`.
Confirm the newline is preserved and the two lines do not join.
5. At the same boundary, press `C` and type `!`.
Confirm the composer enters Insert mode and yields `hello!` above
`world`, preserving the newline.
Targeted automated verification:
- `just fix -p codex-tui`
- `just argument-comment-lint-from-source -p codex-tui -p codex-config`
- `cargo insta pending-snapshots` reports no pending snapshots.
- `just test -p codex-tui` validates the new Vim and keymap snapshot
coverage, but the command remains red due to two reproducible unrelated
failures in `app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_*`.
## Validation Note
The workspace-wide `just argument-comment-lint` form is currently
blocked during Bazel analysis by the existing LLVM `compiler-rt` missing
`include/sanitizer/*.h` failure; package-scoped source linting for the
changed Rust crates passed.
## Why
Plugin and marketplace mutations are applied by the app server, but
several TUI follow-up paths still refreshed state from the TUI host
config. In remote workspace mode, that can leave plugin UI state tied to
stale client-local `config.toml` after the server has already applied
the mutation.
## What
- Stop reloading the TUI host config after app-server-owned plugin,
marketplace, skill, and app mutations.
- Use the same app-server-owned refresh path for local and remote
sessions: ask the app server to reload user config where the running
session needs it, then refetch plugin list/detail state from the app
server.
- Build plugin mention candidates from existing app-server `plugin/list`
and `plugin/read` data in both local and remote sessions instead of
TUI-host plugin config.
- Avoid the duplicate local config reload after `ReloadUserConfig` asks
the app server to reload config.
## Verification
Manually launched a local WebSocket app-server with a temp server
`CODEX_HOME`, launched the TUI with a separate temp host `CODEX_HOME`
and `--remote`, installed a sample plugin from a temp local marketplace
through `/plugins`, and confirmed the TUI refreshed to installed state
while only the server config gained `[plugins."sample@debug"]`. Trace
logs showed the TUI using app-server `plugin/list` and `plugin/read` for
the refresh path.
## Summary
- Bump the workspace Rust toolchain from `1.93.0` to `1.95.0` across
Cargo, Bazel, CI, release workflows, devcontainers, and the Codex
environment config.
- Refresh `MODULE.bazel.lock` so the Bazel Rust toolchain artifacts
match the new version.
- Leave purpose-specific toolchains unchanged, including the
`argument-comment-lint` nightly and the upstream `rusty_v8` `1.91.0`
build pin.
- Includes fixes for new lints from `just fix` and a few codex-authored
fixes for lints without a suggestion.
## Why
Windows sandbox diagnostics are currently hard to recover from
`/feedback` even though they are often the most useful artifact when
debugging sandbox behavior. Now that sandbox logging uses daily rolling
files, feedback can safely include the current day's sandbox log without
uploading the old ever-growing legacy `sandbox.log`.
## What changed
- Add a `codex-windows-sandbox` helper that resolves the current daily
sandbox log from `codex_home`.
- When feedback is submitted with logs enabled on Windows, app-server
attaches today's sandbox log if it exists.
- Upload the attachment under the stable filename `windows-sandbox.log`,
independent of the dated on-disk filename.
- Keep existing raw `extra_log_files` behavior unchanged for rollout and
desktop log attachments.
## Verification
- `cargo fmt -p codex-app-server -p codex-windows-sandbox`
- `cargo test -p codex-windows-sandbox
current_log_file_path_for_codex_home_uses_sandbox_dir`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server
windows_sandbox_log_attachment_uses_current_log`
- Manual CLI/TUI `/feedback` test confirmed Sentry received
`windows-sandbox.log`.
## Why
The Windows sandbox runner still carried the old `SandboxPolicy`
compatibility path even though core now computes `PermissionProfile`.
That meant Windows command-runner execution could only see the legacy
projection, so profile-only filesystem rules such as deny globs were not
part of the runner input.
## What Changed
- Removed the Windows-local `SandboxPolicy` parser/export and deleted
`windows-sandbox-rs/src/policy.rs`.
- Changed restricted-token capture/session setup, elevated setup,
world-writable audit, read-root grant, and command-runner session APIs
to accept `PermissionProfile` plus the profile cwd.
- Bumped the elevated command-runner IPC protocol to version 2 because
`SpawnRequest` now carries `permission_profile` /
`permission_profile_cwd` instead of the legacy `policy_json_or_preset` /
`sandbox_policy_cwd` fields.
- Updated core exec, unified exec, debug-sandbox, TUI setup/grant flows,
and app-server setup to pass the actual effective `PermissionProfile`.
- Left regression coverage asserting the old IPC policy fields are
absent and the runner serializes tagged `PermissionProfile` JSON.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-windows-sandbox`
- `cargo test -p codex-core windows_sandbox`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server
request_processors::windows_sandbox_processor`
- `just fix -p codex-windows-sandbox -p codex-core -p codex-app-server
-p codex-cli -p codex-tui`
- `just fix -p codex-cli -p codex-tui`
- `just fix -p codex-windows-sandbox -p codex-tui`
- `rg "\\bSandboxPolicy\\b" codex-rs/windows-sandbox-rs` returned no
matches.
Note: `cargo test -p codex-cli` was attempted but did not reach crate
tests because local disk filled while compiling dependencies (`No space
left on device`). The targeted clippy pass compiled the affected CLI/TUI
surfaces afterward.
