## Summary
- Track plugin install failures through the unified
`codex_plugin_install_failed` event for local installs, remote install
preflight failures, bundle failures, and remote catalog/backend
failures.
- Send classified `error_type` values in plugin install failure
analytics instead of raw error strings.
- Stop sending raw external-agent import errors in analytics while
preserving raw failure details in app-facing import
notifications/history.
- Keep raw plugin/migration diagnostics in `tracing::warn!` logs.
- Keep remote failure plugin names as the existing local placeholder
(`unknown`) and remove the extra telemetry plugin-name override.
- Change `ExternalAgentConfigImportParams.source` from a generated enum
to `string | null`, with legacy `claudeCode` / `claudeCowork` inputs
normalized to existing analytics values.
## Testing
## Why
Host skill discovery was still exposed as a manager even though it is a
process-owned service shared by sessions, the app-server catalog, and
file-watcher invalidation. The skills extension also consumed an ad hoc
loaded-skills wrapper instead of a named immutable snapshot.
## What changed
- replace `SkillsManager` with concrete `SkillsService`
- make the service cache and return immutable `HostSkillsSnapshot`
values
- migrate the skills extension host provider to the snapshot boundary
- migrate app-server catalog, watcher, and invalidation paths to the
service
This keeps the service limited to host discovery, caching, roots, and
invalidation. Catalog rendering and invocation remain extension
responsibilities for the next stacked change.
## Summary
Makes plugin details/read flows capability-aware so auth-filtered plugin
surfaces report the same usable app/MCP/skill shape as the marketplace
and install flows.
## Validation
Not run; this change was rebased onto the current plugin auth stack and
pushed as a draft PR.
**Manual test**
1. set up a local marketplace with a plugin that has both app and mcp
declarations
```
// .app.json
{
"apps": {
"linear": {
"id": "some_id"
}
}
}
```
```
// .mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"linear": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.linear.app/mcp",
"oauth_resource": "https://mcp.linear.app/mcp"
},
"linear2": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.linear2.app/mcp",
"oauth_resource": "https://mcp.linear2.app/mcp"
}
}
}
```
2a. **login in with api key** and observe plugin details page which
shows no apps (note we don't show "app not available due to api key log
in as there's no way to differentiate between no apps and app without
substitute mcp exists" without significantly more code changes, i've
separated this to a follow up if we want that behaviour.

## Summary
- choose the local OpenAI curated marketplace manifest based on auth:
Codex backend auth gets the existing marketplace, direct provider auth
gets `api_marketplace.json`
- include Bedrock API key auth in the direct-provider API marketplace
path
- safely skip the API marketplace when `api_marketplace.json` is absent
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check origin/main...HEAD`
- CI should run the full validation
## Manual Testing
### - New api marketplace not available for API key sign
1. Safely not display anything from api marketplace
<img width="1161" height="289" alt="Screenshot 2026-06-15 at 21 37 43"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a5f16642-8a20-4ac1-a0de-1274a4c7b5b2"
/>
### - New api marketplace for API key sign in
1. Setup api_marketplace.json
```
{
"name": "openai-curated",
"interface": {
"displayName": "Codex official"
},
"plugins": [
{
"name": "linear",
"source": {
"source": "local",
"path": "./plugins/linear"
},
"policy": {
"installation": "AVAILABLE",
"authentication": "ON_INSTALL"
},
"category": "Productivity"
}
]
}
```
2. Log in with API key, observe that only the defined plugin from
api_marketplace.json is available from "Codex Official" (outside of
local testing marketplaces)
<img width="1167" height="446" alt="Screenshot 2026-06-15 at 21 16 53"

/>
also checked functionality on codex app
### - SiWC users
Still uses 'default' marketplace.json and renders all plugins

/>
also checked functionality on codex app
## Notes
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins` was started locally before splitting
branches, but I stopped relying on local tests per follow-up and left
final validation to PR CI.
## Summary
- add the `created-by-me-remote` marketplace backed by paginated
`scope=USER` plugin directory and installed-plugin requests
- include USER plugins in installed-plugin caching, bundle sync, and
stale-cache cleanup without client-side discoverability filtering
- expose the marketplace through app-server v2 and regenerate the
protocol schemas
## Testing
- `cargo build -p codex-app-server --bin codex-app-server`
- production-auth `plugin/list` smoke test for `created-by-me-remote`
(returned the expected USER plugin as installed and enabled)
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins` (221 passed)
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol` (231 passed)
- `just test -p codex-app-server suite::v2::plugin_list::` (37 passed)
- `just fix -p codex-core-plugins -p codex-app-server-protocol -p
codex-app-server`
- `just fmt`
This adds the background plumbing for remote-backed plugin catalog
sections while leaving the fuller directory presentation to the next PR.
The TUI can fetch section-specific remote marketplace results, keep
local plugin data available, and carry section errors forward for later
rendering.
- Fetches explicit remote marketplace kinds for curated, workspace, and
shared-with-me sections.
- Gates shared-with-me loading on the plugin sharing feature flag.
- Adds section-level error state and user-actionable error copy.
- Merges remote marketplace results into the cached plugin list without
discarding local results.
## Context
This is PR5 in the plugin auth-routing stack. Earlier PRs make plugin
surface projection auth-aware, narrow App/MCP conflicts by App
declaration name, and keep connector listings auth-aware. This PR
applies the same name-based App/MCP conflict rule into plugin MCP
loading, so install-time MCP OAuth and plugin detail metadata both
reflect the MCPs available for the current auth route.
## Stack
- PR1: #27652 seed plugin manager auth at construction.
- PR2: #27459 route plugin surfaces by auth mode.
- PR3: #27607 dedupe plugin MCP servers by App declaration name.
- PR4: #27602 preserve plugin Apps in connector listings.
- PR5: #27461 skip install-time plugin MCP OAuth for matching App
routes.
## Summary
- Make `load_plugin_mcp_servers` auth-aware and let it load App
declarations before filtering same-name MCP servers for Codex-backend
auth.
- Use that filtered MCP list for both install-time MCP OAuth and
marketplace plugin detail metadata.
- Preserve API-key/direct auth behavior so plugin MCP servers remain
visible and can still start OAuth.
## Validation
```bash

cargo check -p codex-core-plugins -p codex-app-server

```
## Context
This is PR4 in the plugin auth-routing stack. The earlier PRs make
plugin surface projection auth-aware and narrow App/MCP conflicts by App
declaration name. This PR keeps connector listing paths aligned with
that projected plugin App set.
This means ChatGPT/SIWC users will still see plugin-provided Apps in
connector listing surfaces like the Apps/connector picker, while API-key
users will not see Apps they cannot use.
## Stack
- PR1: #27652 seed plugin manager auth at construction.
- PR2: #27459 route plugin surfaces by auth mode.
- PR3: #27607 dedupe plugin MCP servers by App declaration name.
- PR4: #27602 preserve plugin Apps in connector listings.
- PR5: #27461 skip install-time plugin MCP OAuth for matching App
routes.
## Summary
- Have app-server compute effective plugin Apps from the existing
PluginsManager and pass them into connector listing.
- Keep plugin Apps visible in Apps/connector listing for ChatGPT/SIWC
users.
- Keep API-key-style auth from surfacing plugin Apps in connector
listings.
## Validation
```bash
cargo test -p codex-chatgpt connectors::tests
cargo test -p codex-app-server list_apps_includes_plugin_apps_for_chatgpt_auth
git diff --check
```
## Context
This is the next step in the plugin auth-routing stack. The earlier PRs
make `PluginsManager` auth-aware and move the broad App/MCP surface
decision into that layer. This PR narrows the ChatGPT/SIWC behavior so
we only hide a plugin MCP server when it conflicts with an App
declaration of the same name.
In product terms: if a plugin exposes both an App route and MCP route
for `foo`, ChatGPT/SIWC sessions should use the App route for `foo`. If
the same plugin also exposes a separate MCP server like `foo2`, that MCP
server should remain available.
```json
// .app.json
{
"apps": {
"foo": {
"id": "connector_abc"
}
}
}
```
```json
// .mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"foo": {
"url": "https://mcp.foo.com/mcp"
},
"foo2": {

## Summary

existing callers.
- For ChatGPT/SIWC, suppress only plugin MCP servers whose names match
declared App names.

## Summary
- store MCP OAuth credentials in the configured auth credential backend
- support encrypted-local OAuth storage, including legacy keyring

after building the required `codex` binary and retrying)

## Summary
- expose the remote plugin detail endpoint's `share_url` as nullable
`PluginDetail.shareUrl`
- preserve existing `PluginSummary.shareContext` behavior for local and
workspace sharing flows
- regenerate the app-server TypeScript and JSON schema fixtures
## Why
The remote plugin detail response already includes a canonical
`share_url`, but that value was not surfaced by `plugin/read` for global
plugins. Global plugins intentionally have no `shareContext`, so using
that model for the URL would change the semantics consumed by the
existing share modal.
## User impact
Codex clients can use `PluginDetail.shareUrl` for a remote plugin's
copy-link action, including when the plugin is disabled by an
administrator, without changing existing share-modal or ownership
behavior.
## Validation
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server
plugin_read_includes_share_url_for_admin_disabled_remote_plugin`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol
typescript_schema_fixtures_match_generated`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol
json_schema_fixtures_match_generated`
- `cargo fmt --all`
## What
- Parse optional `.app.json` `category` overrides for plugin apps.
- Add nullable `category` to `AppSummary` and `AppTemplateSummary` in
the app-server protocol.
- Fall back from `branding.category` to the first non-empty
`app_metadata.categories` value when building app/template summaries.
- Regenerate schema/type fixtures and update plugin read/install tests.
## Why
The plugin details UI needs a normalized per-app category. Some apps
only provide their default category in metadata, while others need a
local `.app.json` override.
## Summary
- remove the redundant `needsAuth` field from `AppSummary` and generated
app-server schemas
- stop `plugin/read` from querying Apps MCP solely to hydrate unused
connector auth state
- preserve `plugin/install.appsNeedingAuth` membership and
`app/list.isAccessible` as the authentication signals
## Why
Codex App and TUI do not consume `plugin/read.plugin.apps[].needsAuth`.
Hydrating it could establish an Apps MCP connection and discover tools
on a cold `plugin/read` request, adding avoidable latency. The plugin
APIs are still marked under development, so removing this wire field is
preferable to retaining a misleading default.
## Verification

- `just test -p codex-tui

- `$xin-build` simplify and debug reviews
## Summary
- skip the local `openai-curated` marketplace before marketplace loading
when tool-suggest discovery uses remote plugins
- preserve existing marketplace listing behavior for all other callers
and when remote plugins are disabled
- add regression coverage proving the curated marketplace is excluded
before its malformed manifest can be read
## Why
Tool-suggest discovery previously loaded every local `openai-curated`
plugin manifest and only discarded that marketplace afterward when
remote plugins were enabled. The remote catalog is used in that mode, so
the local scan consumed CPU without contributing discoverable plugins.
## Impact
Remote-plugin tool suggestion discovery no longer reads the local
curated marketplace and its plugin manifests. `openai-bundled`,
configured marketplaces, normal `plugin/list` behavior, and local
curated discovery when remote plugins are disabled are unchanged.

- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
## Stack
- Base: #27184
- This PR is the second vertical and should be reviewed against
`jif/external-plugins-1`, not `main`.
## Why
CCA is moving toward a split runtime where the orchestrator may have no
filesystem or executor, but it still needs to activate remotely hosted
plugin components. HTTP MCP servers are the simplest complete example:
they need configuration and host authentication, but they do not need an
executor process.
The Apps MCP endpoint is currently synthesized by a special-purpose
loader inside the MCP runtime. That works locally, but it leaves hosted
MCP activation outside the extension model being established in #27184.
It also makes the Apps path a poor foundation for plugins whose skills,
MCP servers, connectors, and hooks may come from different sources or
execute in different places.
This PR moves that one behavior behind an extension-owned contribution
while preserving the existing local fallback. It deliberately does not
introduce a generic plugin activation framework.
## What changed
### MCP extension contribution
`codex-extension-api` gains an ordered `McpServerContributor` contract.
A contributor returns typed `Set` or `Remove` overlays for MCP server
configuration; later contributors win for the names they own.
The contract stays at the existing MCP configuration boundary.
Extensions do not create a second connection manager or transport
abstraction.
### Hosted Apps MCP extension
A new `codex-mcp-extension` contributes the reserved `codex_apps` server
from the existing Apps feature, ChatGPT base URL, path override, and
product SKU configuration.
When `apps_mcp_path_override` is enabled for `https://chatgpt.com`, the
resulting streamable HTTP endpoint is
`https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/ps/mcp`. The existing ChatGPT-auth gate
remains authoritative, so this server can run in an orchestrator-only
process without being exposed for API-key sessions.
### One resolved runtime view
`McpManager` now distinguishes three views:
- **configured:** config- and plugin-backed servers before extension
overlays;
- **runtime:** configured servers plus host-installed extension
contributions;
- **effective:** runtime servers after auth gating and compatibility
built-ins.
App-server installs the hosted MCP extension and uses the runtime view
for thread startup, refresh, status, threadless resource reads,
connector discovery, and MCP OAuth lookup. This keeps
`mcpServer/oauth/login` consistent with the servers exposed by the other
MCP APIs. The hosted Apps server itself continues to use existing
ChatGPT host authentication rather than MCP OAuth.
## Compatibility
Hosts that do not install the MCP extension retain the existing Apps MCP
synthesis path. This preserves current local-only, CLI, and
standalone-host behavior while app-server exercises the extension path.
Disabling Apps removes the reserved `codex_apps` entry, and losing
ChatGPT auth removes it from the effective runtime view. Executor
availability is not consulted for this HTTP transport.
## Follow-ups
The next vertical will resolve a manifest-declared stdio MCP server from
an executor-selected plugin root and execute it in the environment that
owns that root. Later verticals can add backend-owned skills, connector
metadata, hooks, durable selection semantics, and incremental local
convergence without changing the component-specific runtime boundaries
introduced here.
## Verification
Focused coverage was added for:
- contributing the hosted Apps MCP at `/backend-api/ps/mcp` without an
executor;
- requiring ChatGPT auth in the effective runtime view;
- removing a reserved configured Apps server when the Apps feature is
disabled.
`cargo check -p codex-app-server -p codex-mcp-extension -p
codex-extension-api -p codex-mcp` passed. Tests and Clippy were not run
locally under the current development instruction; CI provides the full
validation pass.
## Summary
- request `includeAppsNeedingAuth=true` when installing remote plugins
- return backend-provided `app_ids_needing_auth` from the remote install
client
- use those app IDs to populate `appsNeedingAuth` without refetching
accessible apps, with fallback for older responses
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-app-server`
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins`
- real app-server install/uninstall check with Notion remote plugin
- subagent review found no blocking issues
## Summary
This changes the default remote plugin marketplace listing to use the
cached global remote catalog when it is already present on disk. The
foreground `plugin/list` response can then return from the local catalog
cache instead of waiting on `/ps/plugins/list`.
When a cached global catalog was present at the start of the request,
`plugin/list` still schedules a background refresh through the existing
plugin-list background task path so the disk cache is updated for future
requests. Cache misses keep the existing synchronous remote fetch path
and write the cache, and they do not schedule an extra duplicate
background `/ps/plugins/list` refresh.
Installed/enabled state continues to come from the existing remote
installed overlay path. This change only affects the global remote
catalog directory data used by `plugin/list`.
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-app-server
plugin_list_uses_cached_global_remote_catalog_and_refreshes_it`
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins`
- `git diff --check`
## Why
Remote plugin detail responses include MCP server metadata under
`release.mcp_servers`, but Codex did not deserialize or propagate that
field. As a result, `plugin/read` always returned an empty `mcpServers`
list for remote plugins, so the plugin details pane omitted the MCP
Servers section even when the remote plugin declares one.
This affects uninstalled plugins as well: the remote detail API is the
source of truth and returns MCP server keys without requiring a local
plugin bundle.
## What changed
- Deserialize MCP server entries from remote plugin detail responses.
- Normalize their keys into a sorted, deduplicated list on
`RemotePluginDetail`.
- Return those keys from app-server `plugin/read` instead of hardcoding
an empty list.
- Add regression coverage proving an uninstalled remote plugin returns
its MCP server names.
## Test plan
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins`
- `just test -p codex-app-server plugin_read`
## Summary
- cache the global remote plugin catalog when remote plugin listing runs
and warm it during startup
- use the cached remote catalog in plugin install recommendations with
canonical `plugin@openai-curated-remote` ids
- reuse the session `PluginsManager` for plugin recommendations so
remote cache state is visible on the recommend path
- skip core installed-state verification for remote plugin install
suggestions while leaving local plugin and connector verification
unchanged
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
list_tool_suggest_discoverable_plugins_includes_cached_remote_global_plugins`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
remote_plugin_install_suggestions_skip_core_installed_verification`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server
plugin_list_includes_remote_marketplaces_when_remote_plugin_enabled`
Earlier focused checks during the same branch: codex-tools TUI filter
test, request_plugin_install tests, and codex-app-server build.
## Summary
- Use normal directory loading for plugin install app metadata so
install avoids forced directory refresh while still loading metadata on
cold cache.
- Continue force-refreshing codex_apps tools for auth state.
- Add regression coverage that pre-warms the directory cache and asserts
install returns cached app metadata without extra directory requests.
## Validation
- just fmt
- git diff --check
- just test -p codex-app-server plugin_install_returns_apps_needing_auth
plugin_install_filters_disallowed_apps_needing_auth (blocked locally:
cargo-nextest is not installed)
## Summary
- route each configured MCP server through an explicit per-server
`environment_id` instead of a manager-wide remote toggle
- default omitted `environment_id` to `local`, resolve named ids through
`EnvironmentManager`, and fail only the affected MCP server when an
explicit id is unknown
- keep local stdio on the existing local launcher path for now, while
named-environment stdio uses the selected environment backend and
requires an absolute `cwd`
- allow local HTTP MCP servers to keep using the ambient HTTP client
when no local `Environment` is configured; named-environment HTTP MCPs
use that environment's HTTP client
## Validation
- devbox Bazel build: `bazel build --bes_backend= --bes_results_url=
//codex-rs/cli:codex //codex-rs/rmcp-client:test_stdio_server
//codex-rs/rmcp-client:test_streamable_http_server`
- devbox app-server config matrix with real `config.toml` /
`environments.toml` files covering omitted local, explicit local,
omitted local under remote default, explicit remote stdio, local HTTP
without local env, explicit remote HTTP, local stdio without local env,
unknown explicit env, and remote stdio without `cwd`
- Adds an explicit vertical marketplace kind for plugin/list that
fail-open fetches collection=vertical only when full remote plugins are
disabled.
- Renames the global remote marketplace/cache identity to
openai-curated-remote and materializes remote installs with backend
release versions and app manifests.
## Summary
- add app-server `plugin/installed` for mention-oriented plugin loading
- return installed plugins plus explicitly requested install-suggestion
rows
- keep remote handling on installed-state data instead of the broad
catalog listing path
## Why
The `@` mention surface only needs plugins that are usable now, plus a
small product-approved set of install suggestions. It does not need the
full catalog-shaped `plugin/list` payload that the Plugins page uses.
## Validation
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-core-plugins`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server --test all plugin_installed_`
## Notes
- The package-wide `cargo test -p codex-app-server` run still hits an
existing unrelated stack overflow in
`in_process::tests::in_process_start_clamps_zero_channel_capacity`.
- Companion webview PR: https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/915672
## Why
Some MCP OAuth providers require a pre-registered public client ID and
cannot rely on dynamic client registration. Codex already supports MCP
OAuth, but it had no way to supply that client ID from config into the
PKCE flow.
## What changed
- add `oauth.client_id` under `[mcp_servers.<server>]` config, including
config editing and schema generation
- thread the configured client ID through CLI, app-server, plugin login,
and MCP skill dependency OAuth entrypoints
- configure RMCP authorization with the explicit client when present,
while preserving the existing dynamic-registration path when it is
absent
- add focused coverage for config parsing/serialization and OAuth URL
generation
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-config -p codex-rmcp-client -p codex-mcp -p
codex-core-plugins`
- `cargo test -p codex-core blocking_replace_mcp_servers_round_trips
--lib`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
replace_mcp_servers_streamable_http_serializes_oauth_resource --lib`
- `cargo test -p codex-core config_schema_matches_fixture --lib`
## Notes
Broader local package runs still hit unrelated pre-existing stack
overflows in:
- `codex-app-server::in_process_start_clamps_zero_channel_capacity`
-
`codex-core::resume_agent_from_rollout_uses_edge_data_when_descendant_metadata_source_is_stale`
## Summary
- Allow remote installed-plugin cache refresh to start whenever plugins
are enabled.
- Allow remote installed-plugin bundle sync to start whenever plugins
are enabled.
- Remove the extra local `remote_plugin_enabled` guard from those
background sync paths.
## Context
Server-side installed plugin state and optional bundle URL behavior are
owned by plugin-service `/public/plugins/installed`, so these local sync
paths only need the overall plugin enablement gate.
## Test plan
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-core-plugins`
Adds plugin/share/checkout to turn a shared remote plugin into a local
working copy under ~/plugins/<name>.
Registers the copy in the managed personal marketplace and records the
remote-to-local mapping for later share/save flows.

- Adds localVersion to plugin summaries and remoteVersion to share
context, including generated API schemas.
- Hydrates local and remote plugin versions from manifests and remote
release metadata.
- Adds default-on plugin_sharing gate for shared-with-me listing and
plugin/share/save, with disabled-path errors
and focused coverage.
Makes plugin summaries use config-style plugin@marketplace IDs while
exposing backend remote IDs separately as remotePluginId.
Also fix the consistency issue of REMOTE_SHARED_WITH_ME_MARKETPLACE_NAME
Expose discoverability and full share principals in share context, carry
roles through save/updateTargets, hydrate local shared plugin reads, and
keep share URLs only under plugin.shareContext.
Requires discoverability on plugin/share/updateTargets so the server can
manage workspace link access consistently, including auto-adding the
workspace principal for UNLISTED.
Also rejects LISTED on share creation and blocks client-supplied
workspace principals while preserving response parsing for LISTED.
Supersedes the abandoned #19859, rebuilt on latest `main`.
# Why
PR #19705 adds discovery for hooks bundled with plugins, but `/plugins`
still only shows skills, apps, and MCP servers. This follow-up makes
bundled hooks visible in the same plugin detail view so users can
inspect the full plugin surface in one place.
We also need `PluginHookSummary` to populate Plugin Hooks in the app;
`hooks/list` is not enough there because plugin detail needs to show
hooks for disabled plugins too.
# What
- extend `plugin/read` with `PluginHookSummary` entries for bundled
hooks
- summarize plugin hooks while loading plugin details
- render a `Hooks` row in the `/plugins` detail popup

Adds marketplaceKinds to plugin/list for local, workspace-directory, and
shared-with-me; omitted params keep default local plus gated global
behavior, while explicit kinds are exact.
Exposes shareContext on plugin summaries from local share mappings and
remote workspace/shared responses, including remotePluginId and nullable
creator metadata.
Adds shared-with-me listing through /ps/plugins/workspace/shared,
renames the workspace remote namespace to workspace-directory, and keeps
direct remote read/share/install/update/delete paths gated by plugins
rather than remote_plugin.
# Overview
MCP refreshes were rebuilding active threads from fresh disk-backed
config only, which dropped thread-start session overlays such as
app-injected MCP servers. This keeps refreshes current with disk config
while preserving the thread-local config that only the active thread
knows about.
# Changes
- Rebuild refreshed config per active thread using that thread's current
`cwd`, rather than fanning out one app-server config to every thread.
- Preserve each thread's `SessionFlags` layer while replacing reloadable
config layers with freshly loaded config, then derive the MCP refresh
payload from the rebuilt result.
- Move MCP refresh orchestration into app-server so manual refreshes
fail loudly while background refreshes remain best-effort, and route
plugin-triggered refreshes through the same per-thread reload path.
- Add regression coverage for session overlays, fresh project config,
plugin-derived MCP config, current requirements, and strict vs
best-effort refresh behavior.
# Verification
- Passed focused Rust coverage for the thread-config rebuild behavior
and deferred MCP refresh flow, plus `cargo test -p codex-app-server
--lib`.
- Verified end to end in the Codex dev app against the locally built
CLI: registered an MCP via thread config, verified that it could be used
successfully before refresh, manually triggered MCP refresh, and
verified that it continued to be available afterward.
Extends `plugin/share/save` to accept optional discoverability and
shareTargets while uploading plugin contents, and adds
`plugin/share/updateTargets` for share-only target updates without
re-uploading.
## Summary
- Add plugin manifest keywords to core plugin marketplace/detail models
- Expose keywords on app-server v2 PluginSummary and generated
schema/types
- Populate keywords in plugin/list and plugin/read responses for local
plugins

## Why
App-server had repeated hand-built JSON-RPC error objects for standard
error shapes. Using the shared helpers keeps the common
`invalid_request`, `invalid_params`, and `internal_error` construction
in one place and reduces the chance of new call sites drifting from the
common error payload shape.
## What changed
- Replaced manual standard JSON-RPC error object creation with
`internal_error(...)`, `invalid_request(...)`, and `invalid_params(...)`
across app-server request processors and runtime paths.
- Removed local duplicate helper definitions from search and review
request handling.
- Preserved existing structured `data` payloads by creating the shared
helper error first and then attaching the existing metadata.
- Left custom non-standard errors and raw error-code assertions intact.
## Validation
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server`
## Summary
Remove the hardcoded remote plugin ID prefix allow-list from app-server
uninstall routing. IDs that do not parse as local `plugin@marketplace`
IDs now flow through the remote uninstall path, where the existing
remote ID safety validation still rejects empty IDs, spaces, slashes,
and other unsafe characters before URL/cache use.
## Why
Plugin-service owns the backend remote plugin ID contract. Codex should
not require remote IDs to start with the local hardcoded prefixes
`plugins~`, `plugins_`, `app_`, `asdk_app_`, or `connector_`, because
newer backend ID families could otherwise be rejected before
plugin-service sees the request.

- `git diff --check`
## Why
The app-server request path had grown around a large
`CodexMessageProcessor` plus separate API wrapper/helper modules. That
made the dependency graph hard to see and forced unrelated request
families to share broad processor state.
This PR makes the split mechanical and command-prefix oriented so
request families own only the dependencies they use.
## What changed
- Replaced `CodexMessageProcessor` with command-prefix request
processors under `app-server/src/request_processors/`.
- Removed the old config, device-key, external-agent-config, and fs API
wrapper files by moving their API handling into processors.
- Split apps, plugins, marketplace, catalog, account, MCP, command exec,
fs, git, feedback, thread, turn, thread goals, and Windows sandbox
handling into dedicated processors.
- Kept shared lifecycle, summary conversion, token usage replay, and
shared error mapping only where multiple processors use them; single-use
helpers were inlined into their owning processor.
- Removed the fallback processor path and moved processor tests to
`_tests` files.
