  • Add PermissionRequest hooks support (#17563)
    ## Why
    
    We need `PermissionRequest` hook support!
    
    Also addresses:
    - https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/16301
    - run a script on Hook to do things like play a sound to draw attention
    but actually no-op so user can still approve
    - can omit the `decision` object from output or just have the script
    exit 0 and print nothing
    - https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/15311
      - let the script approve/deny on its own
      - external UI what will run on Hook and relay decision back to codex
    
    
    ## Reviewer Note
    
    There's a lot of plumbing for the new hook, key files to review are:
    - New hook added in `codex-rs/hooks/src/events/permission_request.rs`
    - Wiring for network approvals
    `codex-rs/core/src/tools/network_approval.rs`
    - Wiring for tool orchestrator `codex-rs/core/src/tools/orchestrator.rs`
    - Wiring for execve
    `codex-rs/core/src/tools/runtimes/shell/unix_escalation.rs`
    
    ## What
    
    - Wires shell, unified exec, and network approval prompts into the
    `PermissionRequest` hook flow.
    - Lets hooks allow or deny approval prompts; quiet or invalid hooks fall
    back to the normal approval path.
    - Uses `tool_input.description` for user-facing context when it helps:
      - shell / `exec_command`: the request justification, when present
      - network approvals: `network-access <domain>`
    - Uses `tool_name: Bash` for shell, unified exec, and network approval
    permission-request hooks.
    - For network approvals, passes the originating command in
    `tool_input.command` when there is a single owning call; otherwise falls
    back to the synthetic `network-access ...` command.

  • [hooks] add non-streaming (non-stdin style) shell-only PostToolUse support (#15531)
    CHAINED PR - note that base is eternal/hooks-pretooluse-bash, not main
    -- so the following PR should be first
    
    Matching post-tool hook to the pre-tool functionality here:
    https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/15211
    
    So, PreToolUse calls for plain shell calls, allows blocking. This
    PostToolUse call runs after the command executed
    
    example run:
    
    ```
    › as a test, run in parallel the following commands:
      - echo 'one'
      - echo '[block-pre-tool-use]'
      - echo '[block-post-tool-use]'
    
    
    ⚠ MCP startup incomplete (failed: notion, linear)
    
    • Cruising through those three commands in parallel now, and I’ll share the exact outputs right after
      they land.

    • Ran them in parallel. Little wave report:
    
      - echo 'one' completed and returned one.
      - echo '[block-pre-tool-use]' was blocked before execution by the PreToolUse hook.
      - echo '[block-post-tool-use]' ran, but its result was blocked afterward by the PostToolUse hook.
    
      The hook messages were:
    
      - PreToolUse demo blocked the command. Remove [block-pre-tool-use] to continue.
      - PostToolUse demo blocked the result after execution. Remove [block-post-tool-use] to continue.
    
    
    › for the blocked messages (correctly blocked in this test) did the tool output land back into
      context?
    
    
    • Yeah, from this run:
    
      - PreToolUse block: the command itself did not execute, so no command output landed in context. Only
        the block message did.
      - PostToolUse block: the command did execute, but the actual stdout did not come back into context.
        Only the post-tool block message did.
    
      So the blocked notifications landed in context, but the blocked command payloads themselves did not.
      Nice clean guardrail, aloha.

  • [hooks] add non-streaming (non-stdin style) shell-only PreToolUse support (#15211)
    - add `PreToolUse` hook for bash-like tool execution only at first
    - block shell execution before dispatch with deny-only hook behavior
    - introduces common.rs matcher framework for matching when hooks are run
    
    example run:
    
    ```
    › run three parallel echo commands, and the second one should echo "[block-pre-tool-use]" as a test

      warning: wizard-tower PreToolUse demo blocked a Bash command on purpose.
      feedback: PreToolUse demo blocked the command. Remove [block-pre-tool-use] to continue.
    
    PreToolUse hook (completed)
      warning: wizard-tower PreToolUse demo inspected Bash: echo "third parallel echo"
    
    • Ran echo "first parallel echo"
      └ first parallel echo
    
    • Ran echo "third parallel echo"
      └ third parallel echo
    
    • Three little waves went out in parallel.
    
      1. printed first parallel echo
      2. was blocked before execution because it contained the exact test string [block-pre-tool-use]
      3. printed third parallel echo
    
      There was also an unrelated macOS defaults warning around the successful commands, but the echoes
      themselves worked fine. If you want, I can rerun the second one with a slightly modified string so
      it passes cleanly.

  • [hooks] userpromptsubmit - hook before user's prompt is executed (#14626)
    - this allows blocking the user's prompts from executing, and also
    prevents them from entering history
    - handles the edge case where you can both prevent the user's prompt AND
    add n amount of additionalContexts
    - refactors some old code into common.rs where hooks overlap
    functionality
    - refactors additionalContext being previously added to user messages,
    instead we use developer messages for them
    - handles queued messages correctly
    
    Sample hook for testing - if you write "[block-user-submit]" this hook
    will stop the thread:
    
    example run
    ```

  • start of hooks engine (#13276)
    (Experimental)
    
    This PR adds a first MVP for hooks, with SessionStart and Stop
    
    The core design is:
    
    - hooks live in a dedicated engine under codex-rs/hooks
    - each hook type has its own event-specific file
    - hook execution is synchronous and blocks normal turn progression while
    running
    - matching hooks run in parallel, then their results are aggregated into
    a normalized HookRunSummary
    
    On the AppServer side, hooks are exposed as operational metadata rather
    than transcript-native items:
    
    - new live notifications: hook/started, hook/completed
    - persisted/replayed hook results live on Turn.hookRuns
    - we intentionally did not add hook-specific ThreadItem variants
    
    Hooks messages are not persisted, they remain ephemeral. The context
    changes they add are (they get appended to the user's prompt)
