Feat: appServer.requirementList for requirement.toml (#8800 )

### Summary
We are exposing requirements via `requirement/list` method from
app-server so that we can conditionally disable the agent mode dropdown
selection in VSCE and correctly setting the default value.

### Sample output
#### `etc/codex/requirements.toml`

[app-server] fix config loading for conversations (#8765 )

Currently we don't load config properly for app server conversations.
see:
https://linear.app/openai/issue/CODEX-3956/config-flags-not-respected-in-codex-app-server.
This PR fixes that by respecting the config passed in.

Tested by running `cargo build -p codex-cli &&
RUST_LOG=codex_app_server=debug CODEX_BIN=target/debug/codex cargo run
-p codex-app-server-test-client -- \
--config
model_providers.mock_provider.base_url=\"http://localhost:4010/v2\" \
    --config model_provider=\"mock_provider\" \
    --config model_providers.mock_provider.name="hello" \
    send-message-v2 "hello"`
and verified that the mock_provider is called instead of default
provider.

feat(app-server): thread/rollback API (#8454 )

Add `thread/rollback` to app-server to support IDEs undo-ing the last N
turns of a thread.

For context, an IDE partner will be supporting an "undo" capability
where the IDE (the app-server client) will be responsible for reverting
the local changes made during the last turn. To support this well, we
also need a way to drop the last turn (or more generally, the last N
turns) from the agent's context. This is what `thread/rollback` does.

**Core idea**: A Thread rollback is represented as a persisted event
message (EventMsg::ThreadRollback) in the rollout JSONL file, not by
rewriting history. On resume, both the model's context (core replay) and
the UI turn list (app-server v2's thread history builder) apply these
markers so the pruned history is consistent across live conversations
and `thread/resume`.

Implementation notes:
- Rollback only affects agent context and appends to the rollout file;
clients are responsible for reverting files on disk.
- If a thread rollback is currently in progress, subsequent
`thread/rollback` calls are rejected.
- Because we use `CodexConversation::submit` and codex core tracks
active turns, returning an error on concurrent rollbacks is communicated
via an `EventMsg::Error` with a new variant
`CodexErrorInfo::ThreadRollbackFailed`. app-server watches for that and
sends the BAD_REQUEST RPC response.

Tests cover thread rollbacks in both core and app-server, including when
`num_turns` > existing turns (which clears all turns).

**Note**: this explicitly does **not** behave like `/undo` which we just
removed from the CLI, which does the opposite of what `thread/rollback`
does. `/undo` reverts local changes via ghost commits/snapshots and does
not modify the agent's context / conversation history.

feat: expose outputSchema to user_turn/turn_start app_server API (#8377 )

What changed
- Added `outputSchema` support to the app-server APIs, mirroring `codex
exec --output-schema` behavior.
- V1 `sendUserTurn` now accepts `outputSchema` and constrains the final
assistant message for that turn.
- V2 `turn/start` now accepts `outputSchema` and constrains the final
assistant message for that turn (explicitly per-turn only).

Core behavior
- `Op::UserTurn` already supported `final_output_json_schema`; now V1
`sendUserTurn` forwards `outputSchema` into that field.
- `Op::UserInput` now carries `final_output_json_schema` for per-turn
settings updates; core maps it into
`SessionSettingsUpdate.final_output_json_schema` so it applies to the
created turn context.
- V2 `turn/start` does NOT persist the schema via `OverrideTurnContext`
(it’s applied only for the current turn). Other overrides
(cwd/model/etc) keep their existing persistent behavior.

API / docs
- `codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v1.rs`: add `output_schema:
Option<serde_json::Value>` to `SendUserTurnParams` (serialized as
`outputSchema`).
- `codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2.rs`: add `output_schema:
Option<JsonValue>` to `TurnStartParams` (serialized as `outputSchema`).
- `codex-rs/app-server/README.md`: document `outputSchema` for
`turn/start` and clarify it applies only to the current turn.
- `codex-rs/docs/codex_mcp_interface.md`: document `outputSchema` for v1
`sendUserTurn` and v2 `turn/start`.

Tests added/updated
- New app-server integration tests asserting `outputSchema` is forwarded
into outbound `/responses` requests as `text.format`:
  - `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/output_schema.rs`
  - `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/output_schema.rs`
- Added per-turn semantics tests (schema does not leak to the next
turn):
  - `send_user_turn_output_schema_is_per_turn_v1`
  - `turn_start_output_schema_is_per_turn_v2`
- Added protocol wire-compat tests for the merged op:
  - serialize omits `final_output_json_schema` when `None`
  - deserialize works when field is missing
  - serialize includes `final_output_json_schema` when `Some(schema)`

Call site updates (high level)
- Updated all `Op::UserInput { .. }` constructions to include
`final_output_json_schema`:
  - `codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs`
  - `codex-rs/core/src/codex_delegate.rs`
  - `codex-rs/mcp-server/src/codex_tool_runner.rs`
  - `codex-rs/tui/src/chatwidget.rs`
  - `codex-rs/tui2/src/chatwidget.rs`
  - plus impacted core tests.

Validation
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-core`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server`
- `cargo test -p codex-mcp-server`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui2`
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol`
- `cargo clippy --all-features --tests --profile dev --fix -- -D
warnings`

feat: support allowed_sandbox_modes in requirements.toml (#8298 )

This adds support for `allowed_sandbox_modes` in `requirements.toml` and
provides legacy support for constraining sandbox modes in
`managed_config.toml`. This is converted to `Constrained<SandboxPolicy>`
in `ConfigRequirements` and applied to `Config` such that constraints
are enforced throughout the harness.

Note that, because `managed_config.toml` is deprecated, we do not add
support for the new `external-sandbox` variant recently introduced in
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/8290. As noted, that variant is not
supported in `config.toml` today, but can be configured programmatically
via app server.

chore: cleanup Config instantiation codepaths (#8226 )

This PR does various types of cleanup before I can proceed with more
ambitious changes to config loading.

First, I noticed duplicated code across these two methods:


https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/774bd9e432fa2e0f4e059e97648cf92216912e19/codex-rs/core/src/config/mod.rs#L314-L324


https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/774bd9e432fa2e0f4e059e97648cf92216912e19/codex-rs/core/src/config/mod.rs#L334-L344

This has now been consolidated in
`load_config_as_toml_with_cli_overrides()`.

Further, I noticed that `Config::load_with_cli_overrides()` took two
similar arguments:


https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/774bd9e432fa2e0f4e059e97648cf92216912e19/codex-rs/core/src/config/mod.rs#L308-L311

The difference between `cli_overrides` and `overrides` was not
immediately obvious to me. At first glance, it appears that one should
be able to be expressed in terms of the other, but it turns out that
some fields of `ConfigOverrides` (such as `cwd` and
`codex_linux_sandbox_exe`) are, by design, not configurable via a
`.toml` file or a command-line `--config` flag.

That said, I discovered that many callers of
`Config::load_with_cli_overrides()` were passing
`ConfigOverrides::default()` for `overrides`, so I created two separate
methods:

- `Config::load_with_cli_overrides(cli_overrides: Vec<(String,
TomlValue)>)`
- `Config::load_with_cli_overrides_and_harness_overrides(cli_overrides:
Vec<(String, TomlValue)>, harness_overrides: ConfigOverrides)`

The latter has a long name, as it is _not_ what should be used in the
common case, so the extra typing is designed to draw attention to this
fact. I tried to update the existing callsites to use the shorter name,
where possible.

Further, in the cases where `ConfigOverrides` is used, usually only a
limited subset of fields are actually set, so I updated the declarations
to leverage `..Default::default()` where possible.

fix: thread/list returning fewer than the requested amount due to filtering CXA-293 (#7509 )

This caused some conversations to not appear when they otherwise should.

Prior to this change, `thread/list`/`list_conversations_common` would:
- Fetch N conversations from `RolloutRecorder::list_conversations`
- Then it would filter those (like by the provided `model_providers`)
- This would make it potentially return less than N items.

With this change:
- `list_conversations_common` now continues fetching more conversations
from `RolloutRecorder::list_conversations` until it "fills up" the
`requested_page_size`.
- Ultimately this means that clients can rely on getting eg 20
conversations if they request 20 conversations.

fix: remove serde(flatten) annotation for TurnError (#7499 )

The problem with using `serde(flatten)` on Turn status is that it
conditionally serializes the `error` field, which is not the pattern we
want in API v2 where all fields on an object should always be returned.

```
#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug, Clone, PartialEq, JsonSchema, TS)]
#[serde(rename_all = "camelCase")]
#[ts(export_to = "v2/")]
pub struct Turn {
    pub id: String,
    /// Only populated on a `thread/resume` response.
    /// For all other responses and notifications returning a Turn,
    /// the items field will be an empty list.
    pub items: Vec<ThreadItem>,
    #[serde(flatten)]
    pub status: TurnStatus,
}

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug, Clone, PartialEq, JsonSchema, TS)]
#[serde(tag = "status", rename_all = "camelCase")]
#[ts(tag = "status", export_to = "v2/")]
pub enum TurnStatus {
    Completed,
    Interrupted,
    Failed { error: TurnError },
    InProgress,
}
```

serializes to:
```
{
  "id": "turn-123",
  "items": [],
  "status": "completed"
}

{
  "id": "turn-123",
  "items": [],
  "status": "failed",
  "error": {
    "message": "Tool timeout",
    "codexErrorInfo": null
  }
}
```

Instead we want:
```
{
  "id": "turn-123",
  "items": [],
  "status": "completed",
  "error": null
}

{
  "id": "turn-123",
  "items": [],
  "status": "failed",
  "error": {
    "message": "Tool timeout",
    "codexErrorInfo": null
  }

refactor: inline sandbox type lookup in process_exec_tool_call (#7122 )

`process_exec_tool_call()` was taking `SandboxType` as a param, but in
practice, the only place it was constructed was in
`codex_message_processor.rs` where it was derived from the other
`sandbox_policy` param, so this PR inlines the logic that decides the
`SandboxType` into `process_exec_tool_call()`.

feat: update process_exec_tool_call() to take a cancellation token (#6972 )

This updates `ExecParams` so that instead of taking `timeout_ms:
Option<u64>`, it now takes a more general cancellation mechanism,
`ExecExpiration`, which is an enum that includes a
`Cancellation(tokio_util::sync::CancellationToken)` variant.

If the cancellation token is fired, then `process_exec_tool_call()`
returns in the same way as if a timeout was exceeded.

This is necessary so that in #6973, we can manage the timeout logic
external to the `process_exec_tool_call()` because we want to "suspend"
the timeout when an elicitation from a human user is pending.

[app-server & core] introduce new codex error code and v2 app-server error events (#6938 )

This PR does two things:
1. populate a new `codex_error_code` protocol in error events sent from
core to client;
2. old v1 core events `codex/event/stream_error` and `codex/event/error`
will now both become `error`. We also show codex error code for
turncompleted -> error status.

new events in app server test:

[app-server] feat: v2 apply_patch approval flow (#6760 )

This PR adds the API V2 version of the apply_patch approval flow, which
centers around `ThreadItem::FileChange`.

This PR wires the new RPC (`item/fileChange/requestApproval`, V2 only)
and related events (`item/started`, `item/completed` for
`ThreadItem::FileChange`, which are emitted in both V1 and V2) through
the app-server
protocol. The new approval RPC is only sent when the user initiates a
turn with the new `turn/start` API so we don't break backwards
compatibility with VSCE.

Similar to https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/6758, the approach I
took was to make as few changes to the Codex core as possible,
leveraging existing `EventMsg` core events, and translating those in
app-server. I did have to add a few additional fields to
`EventMsg::PatchApplyBegin` and `EventMsg::PatchApplyEnd`, but those
were fairly lightweight.

However, the `EventMsg`s emitted by core are the following:
```
1) Auto-approved (no request for approval) 
- EventMsg::PatchApplyBegin
- EventMsg::PatchApplyEnd

2) Approved by user
- EventMsg::ApplyPatchApprovalRequest
- EventMsg::PatchApplyBegin
- EventMsg::PatchApplyEnd

3) Declined by user
- EventMsg::ApplyPatchApprovalRequest
- EventMsg::PatchApplyBegin
- EventMsg::PatchApplyEnd
```

For a request triggering an approval, this would result in:
```
item/fileChange/requestApproval
item/started
item/completed
```

which is different from the `ThreadItem::CommandExecution` flow
introduced in https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/6758, which does the
below and is preferable:
```
item/started
item/commandExecution/requestApproval
item/completed
```

To fix this, we leverage `TurnSummaryStore` on codex_message_processor
to store a little bit of state, allowing us to fire `item/started` and
`item/fileChange/requestApproval` whenever we receive the underlying
`EventMsg::ApplyPatchApprovalRequest`, and no-oping when we receive the
`EventMsg::PatchApplyBegin` later.

This is much less invasive than modifying the order of EventMsg within
core (I tried).

The resulting payloads:
```
{
  "method": "item/started",
  "params": {
    "item": {
      "changes": [
        {
          "diff": "Hello from Codex!\n",

[app-server] populate thread>turns>items on thread/resume (#6848 )

This PR allows clients to render historical messages when resuming a
thread via `thread/resume` by reading from the list of `EventMsg`
payloads loaded from the rollout, and then transforming them into Turns
and ThreadItems to be returned on the `Thread` object.

This is implemented by leveraging `SessionConfiguredNotification` which
returns this list of `EventMsg` objects when resuming a conversation,
and then applying a stateful `ThreadHistoryBuilder` that parses from
this EventMsg log and transforms it into Turns and ThreadItems.

Note that we only persist a subset of `EventMsg`s in a rollout as
defined in `policy.rs`, so we lose fidelity whenever we resume a thread
compared to when we streamed the thread's turns originally. However,
this behavior is at parity with the legacy API.

chore(app-server) world-writable windows notification (#6880 )

## Summary
On app-server startup, detect whether the experimental sandbox is
enabled, and send a notification .

**Note**
New conversations will not respect the feature because we [ignore cli
overrides in
NewConversation](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/a75321a64c990275ed4368bf26a5334c9ddfa0a7/codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs#L1237-L1252).
However, this should be okay, since we don't actually use config for
this, we use a [global
variable](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/87cce88f4865685a863e143e0fad4cf5ea542e62/codex-rs/core/src/safety.rs#L105-L110).
We should carefully unwind this setup at some point.


## Testing
- [ ] In progress: testing locally

fix: add more fields to ThreadStartResponse and ThreadResumeResponse (#6847 )

This adds the following fields to `ThreadStartResponse` and
`ThreadResumeResponse`:

```rust
    pub model: String,
    pub model_provider: String,
    pub cwd: PathBuf,
    pub approval_policy: AskForApproval,
    pub sandbox: SandboxPolicy,
    pub reasoning_effort: Option<ReasoningEffort>,
```

This is important because these fields are optional in
`ThreadStartParams` and `ThreadResumeParams`, so the caller needs to be
able to determine what values were ultimately used to start/resume the
conversation. (Though note that any of these could be changed later
between turns in the conversation.)

Though to get this information reliably, it must be read from the
internal `SessionConfiguredEvent` that is created in response to the
start of a conversation. Because `SessionConfiguredEvent` (as defined in
`codex-rs/protocol/src/protocol.rs`) did not have all of these fields, a
number of them had to be added as part of this PR.

Because `SessionConfiguredEvent` is referenced in many tests, test
instances of `SessionConfiguredEvent` had to be updated, as well, which
is why this PR touches so many files.

[app-server] introduce turn/completed v2 event (#6800 )

similar to logic in
`codex/codex-rs/exec/src/event_processor_with_jsonl_output.rs`.
translation of v1 -> v2 events:
`codex/event/task_complete` -> `turn/completed`
`codex/event/turn_aborted` -> `turn/completed` with `interrupted` status
`codex/event/error` -> `turn/completed` with `error` status

this PR also makes `items` field in `Turn` optional. For now, we only
populate it when we resume a thread, and leave it as None for all other
places until we properly rewrite core to keep track of items.

tested using the codex app server client. example new event:
```
< {
<   "method": "turn/completed",
<   "params": {
<     "turn": {
<       "id": "0",
<       "items": [],
<       "status": "interrupted"
<     }
<   }
< }
```
