  • enable/disable remote control at runtime, not via features (#22578)
    ## Why
    reapplies https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22386 which was
    previously reverted
    
    Also, introduce `remoteControl/enable` and `remoteControl/disable`
    app-server APIs to toggle on/off remote control at runtime for a given
    running app-server instance.
    
    ## What Changed
    
    - Adds experimental v2 RPCs:
      - `remoteControl/enable`
      - `remoteControl/disable`
    - Adds `RemoteControlRequestProcessor` and routes the new RPCs through
    it instead of `ConfigRequestProcessor`.
    - Adds named `RemoteControlHandle::enable`, `disable`, and `status`
    methods.
    - Makes `remoteControl/enable` return an error when sqlite state DB is
    unavailable, while keeping enrollment/websocket failures as async status
    updates.
    - Adds `AppServerRuntimeOptions.remote_control_enabled` and hidden
    `--remote-control` flags for `codex app-server` and `codex-app-server`.
    - Updates managed daemon startup to use `codex app-server
    --remote-control --listen unix://`.
    - Marks `Feature::RemoteControl` as removed and ignores
    `[features].remote_control`.
    - Updates app-server README entries for the new remote-control methods.
  • [codex] request desktop attestation from app (#20619)
    ## Summary
    
    TL;DR: teaches `codex-rs` / app-server to request a desktop-provided
    attestation token and attach it as `x-oai-attestation` on the scoped
    ChatGPT Codex request paths.
    
    ![DeviceCheck attestation
    interface](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openai/codex/dev/jm/devicecheck-diagram-assets/pr-assets/devicecheck-attestation-interface.png)
    
    ## Details
    
    This PR teaches the Codex app-server runtime how to request and attach
    an attestation token. It does not generate DeviceCheck tokens directly;
    instead, it relies on the connected desktop app to advertise that it can
    generate attestation and then asks that app for a fresh header value
    when needed.
    
    The flow is:
    
    1. The Codex desktop app connects to app-server.
    2. During `initialize`, the app can advertise that it supports
    `requestAttestation`.
    3. Before app-server calls selected ChatGPT Codex endpoints, it sends
    the internal server request `attestation/generate` to the app.
    4. app-server receives a pre-encoded header value back.
    5. app-server forwards that value as `x-oai-attestation` on the scoped
    outbound requests.
    
    The code in this repo is mostly protocol and runtime plumbing: it adds
    the app-server request/response shape, introduces an attestation
    provider in core, wires that provider into Responses / compaction /
    realtime setup paths, and covers the intended scoping with tests. The
    signed macOS DeviceCheck generation remains owned by the desktop app PR.

    <summary>E2E DeviceCheck validation</summary>
    
    First validated the signed desktop app boundary directly: launched a
    packaged signed `Codex.app`, sent `attestation/generate`, decoded the
    returned `v1.` attestation header, and validated the extracted
    DeviceCheck token with `personal/jm/verify_devicecheck_token.py` using
    bundle ID `com.openai.codex`. Apple returned `status_code: 200` and
    `is_ok: true`.
    
    Then ran the fuller app + app-server flow. The packaged `Codex.app`
    launched a current-branch app-server via `CODEX_CLI_PATH`, and a local
    MITM proxy intercepted outbound `chatgpt.com` traffic. The app-server
    requested `attestation/generate` from the real Electron app process, and
    the intercepted `/backend-api/codex/responses` traffic included
    `x-oai-attestation` on both routes:
    
    ```text
    GET  /backend-api/codex/responses  Upgrade: websocket  x-oai-attestation: present
    POST /backend-api/codex/responses  Upgrade: none       x-oai-attestation: present
    ```
    
    The captured header decoded to a DeviceCheck token that also validated
    with Apple for `com.openai.codex` (`status_code: 200`, `is_ok: true`,
    team `2DC432GLL2`).

  • [codex] Add unsandboxed process exec API (#19040)
    ## Why
    
    App-server clients sometimes need argv-based local process execution
    while sandbox policy is controlled outside Codex. Those environments can
    reject sandbox-disabling paths before a command ever starts, even when
    the caller intentionally wants unsandboxed execution.
    
    This PR adds a distinct `process/*` API for that use case instead of
    extending `command/exec` with another sandbox-disabling shape. Keeping
    the new surface separate also makes the future removal of `command/exec`
    simpler: clients that need explicit process lifecycle control can move
    to the newer handle-based API without depending on `command/exec`
    business logic.
    
    ## What changed
    
    - Added v2 process lifecycle methods: `process/spawn`,
    `process/writeStdin`, `process/resizePty`, and `process/kill`.
    - Added process notifications: `process/outputDelta` for streamed
    stdout/stderr chunks and `process/exited` for final exit status and
    buffered output.
    - Made `process/spawn` intentionally unsandboxed and omitted
    sandbox-selection fields such as `sandboxPolicy` and
    `permissionProfile`.
    - Added client-supplied, connection-scoped `processHandle` values for
    follow-up control requests and notification routing.
    - Supported cwd, environment overrides, PTY mode and size, stdin
    streaming, stdout/stderr streaming, per-stream output caps, and timeout
    controls.
    - Killed active process sessions when the originating app-server
    connection closes.
    - Wired the implementation through the modular `request_processors/`
    app-server layout, with process-handle request serialization for
    follow-up control calls.
    - Updated generated JSON/TypeScript schema fixtures and documented the
    new API in `codex-rs/app-server/README.md`.
    - Added v2 app-server integration coverage in
    `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/process_exec.rs` for spawn
    acknowledgement before exit, buffered output caps, and process
    termination.

  • feat: Add workspace plugin sharing APIs (#20278)
    1. Adds v2 plugin/share/save, plugin/share/list, and plugin/share/delete
    RPCs.
    2. Implements save by archiving a local plugin root, enforcing a size
    limit, uploading through the workspace upload flow, and supporting
    updates via remotePluginId.
    3. Lists created workspace plugins
    4. Deletes a previously uploaded/shared plugin.
  • Add hooks/list app-server RPC (#19778)
    ## Why
    
    We need a way to list the available hooks to expose via the TUI and App
    so users can view and manage their hooks
    
    ## What
    
    - Adds `hooks/list` for one or more `cwd` values that returns discovered
    hook metadata
    
    ## Stack

    2. This PR - openai/codex#19778
    3. openai/codex#19840
    4. openai/codex#19882
    
    ## Review Notes
    
    The generated schema files account for most of the raw diff, these files
    have the core change:
    
    - `hooks/src/engine/discovery.rs` builds the inventory entries during
    hook discovery while leaving runtime handlers focused on execution.
    - `app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs` wires `hooks/list` into
    the app-server flow for each requested `cwd`.
    - `app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2.rs` defines the new v2
    request/response payloads exposed on the wire.
    
    ### Core Changes
    
    `core/src/plugins/manager.rs` adds `plugins_for_layer_stack(...)` so
    `skills/list` and `hooks/list`can resolve plugin state for each
    requested `cwd`

  • feat: expose provider capability bounds to app server clients (#20049)
    follow up of #19442. The app server now exposes provider-derived bounds
    through a new v2 `modelProvider/read` method. The response reports the
    configured provider map key as `modelProvider` and returns the effective
    capability booleans so clients can align their UI with the same
    provider-owned limits used by core.
  • [codex] add non-local thread store regression harness (#19266)
    - Add an integration test that guarantees nothing gets written to codex
    home dir or sqlite when running a rollout with a non-local ThreadStore
    - Add an in-memory "spy" ThreadStore for tests like this
    
    Note I could not find a good way to also ensure there were no filesystem
    _reads_ that didn't go through threadstore. I explored a more elaborate
    sandboxed-subprocess approach but it isn't platform portable and felt
    like it wasn't (yet) worth it.
  • Add app-server marketplace upgrade RPC (#19074)
    ## Summary
    - add a v2 `marketplace/upgrade` app-server RPC that mirrors the
    existing configured Git marketplace upgrade path
    - expose typed request/response/error payloads and regenerate
    JSON/TypeScript schema fixtures
    - add app-server integration coverage for all, named, already

  • app-server: implement device key v2 methods (#18430)
    ## Why
    
    The device-key protocol needs an app-server implementation that keeps
    local key operations behind the same request-processing boundary as
    other v2 APIs.
    
    app-server owns request dispatch, transport policy, documentation, and
    JSON-RPC error shaping. `codex-device-key` owns key binding, validation,
    platform provider selection, and signing mechanics. Keeping the adapter
    thin makes the boundary easier to review and avoids moving local
    key-management details into thread orchestration code.
    
    ## What changed
    
    - Added `DeviceKeyApi` as the app-server adapter around
    `DeviceKeyStore`.
    - Converted protocol protection policies, payload variants, algorithms,
    and protection classes to and from the device-key crate types.
    - Encoded SPKI public keys and DER signatures as base64 protocol fields.
    - Routed `device/key/create`, `device/key/public`, and `device/key/sign`
    through `MessageProcessor`.
    - Rejected remote transports before provider access while allowing local
    `stdio` and in-process callers to reach the device-key API.
    - Added stdio, in-process, and websocket tests for device-key validation
    and transport policy.
    - Documented the device-key methods in the app-server v2 method list.
    
    ## Test coverage
    
    - `device_key_create_rejects_empty_account_user_id`
    - `in_process_allows_device_key_requests_to_reach_device_key_api`
    - `device_key_methods_are_rejected_over_websocket`
    
    ## Stack
    
    This is PR 3 of 4 in the device-key app-server stack. It is stacked on
    #18429.
    
    ## Validation

    - `just fix -p codex-app-server`
  • [codex] Add marketplace/remove app-server RPC (#17751)
    ## Summary
    
    Add a new app-server `marketplace/remove` RPC on top of the shared
    marketplace-remove implementation.
    
    This change:
    - adds `MarketplaceRemoveParams` / `MarketplaceRemoveResponse` to the
    app-server protocol
    - wires the new request through `codex_message_processor`
    - reuses the shared core marketplace-remove flow from the stacked
    refactor PR
    - updates generated schema files and adds focused app-server coverage
    
    ## Validation
    
    - `just write-app-server-schema`
    - `just fmt`
    - heavy compile/test coverage deferred to GitHub CI per request
  • Sync local plugin imports, async remote imports, refresh caches after… (#18246)
    … import
    
    ## Why
    
    `externalAgentConfig/import` used to spawn plugin imports in the
    background and return immediately. That meant local marketplace imports
    could still be in flight when the caller refreshed plugin state, so
    newly imported plugins would not show up right away.
    
    This change makes local marketplace imports complete before the RPC
    returns, while keeping remote marketplace imports asynchronous so we do
    not block on remote fetches.
    
    ## What changed
    
    - split plugin migration details into local and remote marketplace
    imports based on the external config source
    - import local marketplaces synchronously during
    `externalAgentConfig/import`
    - return pending remote plugin imports to the app-server so it can
    finish them in the background
    - clear the plugin and skills caches before responding to plugin
    imports, and again after background remote imports complete, so the next
    `plugin/list` reloads fresh state
    - keep marketplace source parsing encapsulated behind
    `is_local_marketplace_source(...)` instead of re-exporting the internal
    enum
    - add core and app-server coverage for the synchronous local import path
    and the pending remote import path
    
    ## Verification
    
    - `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
    - `cargo test -p codex-core` (currently fails an existing unrelated
    test:
    `config_loader::tests::cli_override_can_update_project_local_mcp_server_when_project_is_trusted`)
    - `cargo test` (currently fails existing `codex-app-server` integration
    tests in MCP/skills/thread-start areas, plus the unrelated `codex-core`
    failure above)
  • [codex] Refactor marketplace add into shared core flow (#17717)
    ## Summary
    
    Move `codex marketplace add` onto a shared core implementation so the
    CLI and app-server path can use one source of truth.
    
    This change:
    - adds shared marketplace-add orchestration in `codex-core`
    - switches the CLI command to call that shared implementation
    - removes duplicated CLI-only marketplace add helpers
    - preserves focused parser and add-path coverage while moving the shared
    behavior into core tests
    
    ## Why
    
    The new `marketplace/add` RPC should reuse the same underlying
    marketplace-add flow as the CLI. This refactor lands that consolidation
    first so the follow-up app-server PR can be mostly protocol and handler
    wiring.
    
    ## Validation
    
    - `cargo test -p codex-core marketplace_add`
    - `cargo test -p codex-cli marketplace_cmd`
    - `just fix -p codex-core`
    - `just fix -p codex-cli`

    - Generate JSON schema and TypeScript protocol artifacts for the new
    params and empty response.
    - Document the new endpoint and include a request/response example.
    - Preserve compatibility with the typo alias `turn/injet_items` while
    returning the canonical method name.

  • Revert "Option to Notify Workspace Owner When Usage Limit is Reached" (#17391)
    Reverts openai/codex#16969
    
    #sev3-2026-04-10-accountscheckversion-500s-for-openai-workspace-7300
  • Option to Notify Workspace Owner When Usage Limit is Reached (#16969)
    ## Summary
    - Replace the manual `/notify-owner` flow with an inline confirmation
    prompt when a usage-based workspace member hits a credits-depleted
    limit.
    - Fetch the current workspace role from the live ChatGPT
    `accounts/check/v4-2023-04-27` endpoint so owner/member behavior matches
    the desktop and web clients.
    - Keep owner, member, and spend-cap messaging distinct so we only offer
    the owner nudge when the workspace is actually out of credits.
    
    ## What Changed
    - `backend-client`
    - Added a typed fetch for the current account role from
    `accounts/check`.
      - Mapped backend role values into a Rust workspace-role enum.
    - `app-server` and protocol
      - Added `workspaceRole` to `account/read` and `account/updated`.
    - Derived `isWorkspaceOwner` from the live role, with a fallback to the
    cached token claim when the role fetch is unavailable.
    - `tui`
      - Removed the explicit `/notify-owner` slash command.
    - When a member is blocked because the workspace is out of credits, the
    error now prompts:
    - `Your workspace is out of credits. Request more from your workspace
    owner? [y/N]`
      - Choosing `y` sends the existing owner-notification request.
    - Choosing `n`, pressing `Esc`, or accepting the default selection
    dismisses the prompt without sending anything.
    - Selection popups now honor explicit item shortcuts, which is how the
    `y` / `n` interaction is wired.
    
    ## Reviewer Notes
    - The main behavior change is scoped to usage-based workspace members
    whose workspace credits are depleted.
    - Spend-cap reached should not show the owner-notification prompt.
    - Owners and admins should continue to see `/usage` guidance instead of
    the member prompt.
    - The live role fetch is best-effort; if it fails, we fall back to the
    existing token-derived ownership signal.
    
    ## Testing
    - Manual verification
      - Workspace owner does not see the member prompt.
    - Workspace member with depleted credits sees the confirmation prompt
    and can send the nudge with `y`.
    - Workspace member with spend cap reached does not see the
    owner-notification prompt.

  • Forward app-server turn clientMetadata to Responses (#16009)
    ## Summary
    App-server v2 already receives turn-scoped `clientMetadata`, but the
    Rust app-server was dropping it before the outbound Responses request.
    This change keeps the fix lightweight by threading that metadata through
    the existing turn-metadata path rather than inventing a new transport.
    
    ## What we're trying to do and why
    We want turn-scoped metadata from the app-server protocol layer,
    especially fields like Hermes/GAAS run IDs, to survive all the way to
    the actual Responses API request so it is visible in downstream
    websocket request logging and analytics.
    
    The specific bug was:
    - app-server protocol uses camelCase `clientMetadata`
    - Responses transport already has an existing turn metadata carrier:
    `x-codex-turn-metadata`
    - websocket transport already rewrites that header into
    `request.request_body.client_metadata["x-codex-turn-metadata"]`
    - but the Rust app-server never parsed or stored `clientMetadata`, so
    nothing from the app-server request was making it into that existing
    path
    
    This PR fixes that without adding a new header or a second metadata
    channel.
    
    ## How we did it
    ### Protocol surface
    - Add optional `clientMetadata` to v2 `TurnStartParams` and
    `TurnSteerParams`
    - Regenerate the JSON schema / TypeScript fixtures
    - Update app-server docs to describe the field and its behavior
    
    ### Runtime plumbing
    - Add a dedicated core op for app-server user input carrying turn-scoped
    metadata: `Op::UserInputWithClientMetadata`
    - Wire `turn/start` and `turn/steer` through that op / signature path
    instead of dropping the metadata at the message-processor boundary
    - Store the metadata in `TurnMetadataState`
    
    ### Transport behavior
    - Reuse the existing serialized `x-codex-turn-metadata` payload
    - Merge the new app-server `clientMetadata` into that JSON additively
    - Do **not** replace built-in reserved fields already present in the
    turn metadata payload
    - Keep websocket behavior unchanged at the outer shape level: it still
    sends only `client_metadata["x-codex-turn-metadata"]`, but that JSON
    string now contains the merged fields
    - Keep HTTP fallback behavior unchanged except that the existing
    `x-codex-turn-metadata` header now includes the merged fields too
    
    ### Request shape before / after
    Before, a websocket `response.create` looked like:
    ```json
    {
      "type": "response.create",
      "client_metadata": {
        "x-codex-turn-metadata": "{\"session_id\":\"...\",\"turn_id\":\"...\"}"
      }
    }
    ```
    Even if the app-server caller supplied `clientMetadata`, it was not
    represented there.
    
    After, the same request shape is preserved, but the serialized payload
    now includes the new turn-scoped fields:
    ```json
    {
      "type": "response.create",
      "client_metadata": {
        "x-codex-turn-metadata": "{\"session_id\":\"...\",\"turn_id\":\"...\",\"fiber_run_id\":\"fiber-start-123\",\"origin\":\"gaas\"}"
      }
    }
    ```
    
    ## Validation
    ### Targeted tests added / updated
    - protocol round-trip coverage for `clientMetadata` on `turn/start` and
    `turn/steer`
    - protocol round-trip coverage for `Op::UserInputWithClientMetadata`
    - `TurnMetadataState` merge test proving client metadata is added
    without overwriting reserved built-in fields
    - websocket request-shape test proving outbound `response.create`
    contains merged metadata inside
    `client_metadata["x-codex-turn-metadata"]`
    - app-server integration tests proving:
    - `turn/start` forwards `clientMetadata` into the outbound Responses
    request path
      - websocket warmup + real turn request both behave correctly
      - `turn/steer` updates the follow-up request metadata

    I verified that same failure on a clean detached `HEAD` worktree with an
    isolated `CARGO_TARGET_DIR`, so it is not caused by this patch.
  • [mcp] Support MCP Apps part 1. (#16082)
    - [x] Add `mcpResource/read` method to read mcp resource.
  • Fix MCP tool listing for hyphenated server names (#16674)
    Addresses #16671 and #14927
    
    Problem: `mcpServerStatus/list` rebuilt MCP tool groups from sanitized
    tool prefixes but looked them up by unsanitized server names, so
    hyphenated servers rendered as having no tools in `/mcp`. This was
    reported as a regression when the TUI switched to use the app server.
    
    Solution: Build each server's tool map using the original server name's
    sanitized prefix, include effective runtime MCP servers in the status
    response, and add a regression test for hyphenated server names.
  • Add thread/shellCommand to app server API surface (#14988)
    This PR adds a new `thread/shellCommand` app server API so clients can
    implement `!` shell commands. These commands are executed within the
    sandbox, and the command text and output are visible to the model.
    
    The internal implementation mirrors the current TUI `!` behavior.
    - persist shell command execution as `CommandExecution` thread items,
    including source and formatted output metadata
    - bridge live and replayed app-server command execution events back into
    the existing `tui_app_server` exec rendering path
    
    This PR also wires `tui_app_server` to submit `!` commands through the
    new API.
  • app-server: add v2 filesystem APIs (#14245)
    Add a protocol-level filesystem surface to the v2 app-server so Codex
    clients can read and write files, inspect directories, and subscribe to
    path changes without relying on host-specific helpers.
    
    High-level changes:
    - define the new v2 fs/readFile, fs/writeFile, fs/createDirectory,
    fs/getMetadata, fs/readDirectory, fs/remove, fs/copy RPCs
    - implement the app-server handlers, including absolute-path validation,
    base64 file payloads, recursive copy/remove semantics
    - document the API, regenerate protocol schemas/types, and add
    end-to-end tests for filesystem operations, copy edge cases
    
    Testing plan:
    - validate protocol serialization and generated schema output for the
    new fs request, response, and notification types
    - run app-server integration coverage for file and directory CRUD paths,
    metadata/readDirectory responses, copy failure modes, and absolute-path
    validation
  • feat: add plugin/read. (#14445)
    return more information for a specific plugin.
  • chore: plugin/uninstall endpoint (#14111)
    add `plugin/uninstall` app-server endpoint to fully rm plugin from
    plugins cache dir and rm entry from user config file.
    
    plugin-enablement is session-scoped, so uninstalls are only picked up in
    new sessions (like installs).
    
    added tests.
  • Add request permissions tool (#13092)
    Adds a built-in `request_permissions` tool and wires it through the
    Codex core, protocol, and app-server layers so a running turn can ask
    the client for additional permissions instead of relying on a static
    session policy.
    
    The new flow emits a `RequestPermissions` event from core, tracks the
    pending request by call ID, forwards it through app-server v2 as an
    `item/permissions/requestApproval` request, and resumes the tool call
    once the client returns an approved subset of the requested permission
    profile.
  • app-server: Add streaming and tty/pty capabilities to command/exec (#13640)
    * Add an ability to stream stdin, stdout, and stderr
    * Streaming of stdout and stderr has a configurable cap for total amount
    of transmitted bytes (with an ability to disable it)
    * Add support for overriding environment variables
    * Add an ability to terminate running applications (using
    `command/exec/terminate`)
    * Add TTY/PTY support, with an ability to resize the terminal (using
    `command/exec/resize`)
  • support plugin/list. (#13540)
    Introduce a plugin/list which reads from local marketplace.json.
    Also update the signature for plugin/install.
  • feat(app-server): support mcp elicitations in v2 api (#13425)
    This adds a first-class server request for MCP server elicitations:
    `mcpServer/elicitation/request`.
    
    Until now, MCP elicitation requests only showed up as a raw
    `codex/event/elicitation_request` event from core. That made it hard for
    v2 clients to handle elicitations using the same request/response flow
    as other server-driven interactions (like shell and `apply_patch`
    tools).
    
    This also updates the underlying MCP elicitation request handling in
    core to pass through the full MCP request (including URL and form data)
    so we can expose it properly in app-server.
    
    ### Why not `item/mcpToolCall/elicitationRequest`?
    This is because MCP elicitations are related to MCP servers first, and
    only optionally to a specific MCP tool call.
    
    In the MCP protocol, elicitation is a server-to-client capability: the
    server sends `elicitation/create`, and the client replies with an
    elicitation result. RMCP models it that way as well.
    
    In practice an elicitation is often triggered by an MCP tool call, but
    not always.
    
    ### What changed
    - add `mcpServer/elicitation/request` to the v2 app-server API
    - translate core `codex/event/elicitation_request` events into the new
    v2 server request
    - map client responses back into `Op::ResolveElicitation` so the MCP
    server can continue
    - update app-server docs and generated protocol schema
    - add an end-to-end app-server test that covers the full round trip
    through a real RMCP elicitation flow
    - The new test exercises a realistic case where an MCP tool call
    triggers an elicitation, the app-server emits
    mcpServer/elicitation/request, the client accepts it, and the tool call
    resumes and completes successfully.
    
    ### app-server API flow
    - Client starts a thread with `thread/start`.
    - Client starts a turn with `turn/start`.
    - App-server sends `item/started` for the `mcpToolCall`.
    - While that tool call is in progress, app-server sends
    `mcpServer/elicitation/request`.
    - Client responds to that request with `{ action: "accept" | "decline" |
    "cancel" }`.
    - App-server sends `serverRequest/resolved`.
    - App-server sends `item/completed` for the mcpToolCall.
    - App-server sends `turn/completed`.
    - If the turn is interrupted while the elicitation is pending,
    app-server still sends `serverRequest/resolved` before the turn
    finishes.
  • Add thread metadata update endpoint to app server (#13280)
    ## Summary
    - add the v2 `thread/metadata/update` API, including
    protocol/schema/TypeScript exports and app-server docs
    - patch stored thread `gitInfo` in sqlite without resuming the thread,
    with validation plus support for explicit `null` clears
    - repair missing sqlite thread rows from rollout data before patching,
    and make those repairs safe by inserting only when absent and updating
    only git columns so newer metadata is not clobbered
    - keep sqlite authoritative for mutable thread git metadata by
    preserving existing sqlite git fields during reconcile/backfill and only
    using rollout `SessionMeta` git fields to fill gaps
    - add regression coverage for the endpoint, repair paths, concurrent
    sqlite writes, clearing git fields, and rollout/backfill reconciliation
    - fix the login server shutdown race so cancelling before the waiter
    starts still terminates `block_until_done()` correctly

    This reverts commit https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/12633. We no

  • feat(app-server): thread/unsubscribe API (#10954)
    Adds a new v2 app-server API for a client to be able to unsubscribe to a
    thread:
    - New RPC method: `thread/unsubscribe`
    - New server notification: `thread/closed`
    
    Today clients can start/resume/archive threads, but there wasn’t a way
    to explicitly unload a live thread from memory without archiving it.
    With `thread/unsubscribe`, a client can indicate it is no longer
    actively working with a live Thread. If this is the only client
    subscribed to that given thread, the thread will be automatically closed
    by app-server, at which point the server will send `thread/closed` and
    `thread/status/changed` with `status: notLoaded` notifications.
    
    This gives clients a way to prevent long-running app-server processes
    from accumulating too many thread (and related) objects in memory.
    
    Closed threads will also be removed from `thread/loaded/list`.

    Behind a feature flag.
  • app-server: expose loaded thread status via read/list and notifications (#11786)
    Motivation
    - Today, a newly connected client has no direct way to determine the
    current runtime status of threads from read/list responses alone.
    - This forces clients to infer state from transient events, which can
    lead to stale or inconsistent UI when reconnecting or attaching late.
    
    Changes
    - Add `status` to `thread/read` responses.
    - Add `statuses` to `thread/list` responses.
    - Emit `thread/status/changed` notifications with `threadId` and the new
    status.
    - Track runtime status for all loaded threads and default unknown
    threads to `idle`.
    - Update protocol/docs/tests/schema fixtures for the revised API.
    
    Testing
    - Validated protocol API changes with automated protocol tests and
    regenerated schema/type fixtures.
    - Validated app-server behavior with unit and integration test suites,
    including status transitions and notifications.

  • feat(core): zsh exec bridge (#12052)
    zsh fork PR stack:
    - https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/12051 
    - https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/12052 👈 
    
    ### Summary
    This PR introduces a feature-gated native shell runtime path that routes
    shell execution through a patched zsh exec bridge, removing MCP-specific
    behavior from the shell hot path while preserving existing
    CommandExecution lifecycle semantics.
    
    When shell_zsh_fork is enabled, shell commands run via patched zsh with
    per-`execve` interception through EXEC_WRAPPER. Core receives wrapper
    IPC requests over a Unix socket, applies existing approval policy, and
    returns allow/deny before the subcommand executes.
    
    ### What’s included
    **1) New zsh exec bridge runtime in core**
    - Wrapper-mode entrypoint (maybe_run_zsh_exec_wrapper_mode) for
    EXEC_WRAPPER invocations.
    - Per-execution Unix-socket IPC handling for wrapper requests/responses.
    - Approval callback integration using existing core approval
    orchestration.
    - Streaming stdout/stderr deltas to existing command output event
    pipeline.
    - Error handling for malformed IPC, denial/abort, and execution
    failures.
    
    **2) Session lifecycle integration**
    SessionServices now owns a `ZshExecBridge`.
    Session startup initializes bridge state; shutdown tears it down
    cleanly.
    
    **3) Shell runtime routing (feature-gated)**
    When `shell_zsh_fork` is enabled:
    - Build execution env/spec as usual.
    - Add wrapper socket env wiring.
    - Execute via `zsh_exec_bridge.execute_shell_request(...)` instead of
    the regular shell path.
    - Non-zsh-fork behavior remains unchanged.
    
    **4) Config + feature wiring**
    - Added `Feature::ShellZshFork` (under development).
    - Added config support for `zsh_path` (optional absolute path to patched
    zsh):
    - `Config`, `ConfigToml`, `ConfigProfile`, overrides, and schema.
    - Session startup validates that `zsh_path` exists/usable when zsh-fork
    is enabled.
    - Added startup test for missing `zsh_path` failure mode.
    
    **5) Seatbelt/sandbox updates for wrapper IPC**
    - Extended seatbelt policy generation to optionally allow outbound
    connection to explicitly permitted Unix sockets.
    - Wired sandboxing path to pass wrapper socket path through to seatbelt
    policy generation.
    - Added/updated seatbelt tests for explicit socket allow rule and
    argument emission.
    
    **6) Runtime entrypoint hooks**
    - This allows the same binary to act as the zsh wrapper subprocess when
    invoked via `EXEC_WRAPPER`.
    
    **7) Tool selection behavior**
    - ToolsConfig now prefers ShellCommand type when shell_zsh_fork is
    enabled.
    - Added test coverage for precedence with unified-exec enabled.
  • add(core): safety check downgrade warning (#11964)
    Add per-turn notice when a request is downgraded to a fallback model due
    to cyber safety checks.
    
    **Changes**
    
    - codex-api: Emit a ServerModel event based on the openai-model response
    header and/or response payload (SSE + WebSocket), including when the
    model changes mid-stream.
    - core: When the server-reported model differs from the requested model,
    emit a single per-turn warning explaining the reroute to gpt-5.2 and
    directing users to Trusted
        Access verification and the cyber safety explainer.
    - app-server (v2): Surface these cyber model-routing warnings as
    synthetic userMessage items with text prefixed by Warning: (and document
    this behavior).
  • Reapply "Add app-server transport layer with websocket support" (#11370)
    Reapply "Add app-server transport layer with websocket support" with
    additional fixes from https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/11313/changes
    to avoid deadlocking.
    
    This reverts commit 47356ff83c.
    
    ## Summary
    
    To avoid deadlocking when queues are full, we maintain separate tokio
    tasks dedicated to incoming vs outgoing event handling
    - split the app-server main loop into two tasks in
    `run_main_with_transport`
       - inbound handling (`transport_event_rx`)
       - outbound handling (`outgoing_rx` + `thread_created_rx`)
    - separate incoming and outgoing websocket tasks
    
    ## Validation
    
    Integration tests, testing thoroughly e2e in codex app w/ >10 concurrent
    requests

  • feat(app-server): turn/steer API (#10821)
    This PR adds a dedicated `turn/steer` API for appending user input to an
    in-flight turn.
    
    ## Motivation
    Currently, steering in the app is implemented by just calling
    `turn/start` while a turn is running. This has some really weird quirks:
    - Client gets back a new `turn.id`, even though streamed
    events/approvals remained tied to the original active turn ID.
    - All the various turn-level override params on `turn/start` do not
    apply to the "steer", and would only apply to the next real turn.
    - There can also be a race condition where the client thinks the turn is
    active but the server has already completed it, so there might be bugs
    if the client has baked in some client-specific behavior thinking it's a
    steer when in fact the server kicked off a new turn. This is
    particularly possible when running a client against a remote app-server.
    
    Having a dedicated `turn/steer` API eliminates all those quirks.
    
    `turn/steer` behavior:
    - Requires an active turn on threadId. Returns a JSON-RPC error if there
    is no active turn.
    - If expectedTurnId is provided, it must match the active turn (more
    useful when connecting to a remote app-server).
    - Does not emit `turn/started`.
    - Does not accept turn overrides (`cwd`, `model`, `sandbox`, etc.) or
    `outputSchema` to accurately reflect that these are not applied when
    steering.
  • Add app-server transport layer with websocket support (#10693)
    - Adds --listen <URL> to codex app-server with two listen modes:
          - stdio:// (default, existing behavior)
          - ws://IP:PORT (new websocket transport)
      - Refactors message routing to be connection-aware:
    - Tracks per-connection session state (initialize/experimental
    capability)
          - Routes responses/errors to the originating connection
    - Broadcasts server notifications/requests to initialized connections
    - Updates initialization semantics to be per connection (not
    process-global), and updates app-server docs accordingly.
    - Adds websocket accept/read/write handling (JSON-RPC per text frame,
    ping/pong handling, connection lifecycle events).
    
    Testing
    
    - Unit tests for transport URL parsing and targeted response/error
    routing.
      - New websocket integration test validating:
          - per-connection initialization requirements
          - no cross-connection response leakage
          - same request IDs on different connections route independently.
  • [app-server] Add a method to list experimental features. (#10721)
    - [x] Add a method to list experimental features.
  • feat: experimental flags (#10231)
    ## Problem being solved
    - We need a single, reliable way to mark app-server API surface as
    experimental so that:
      1. the runtime can reject experimental usage unless the client opts in
    2. generated TS/JSON schemas can exclude experimental methods/fields for
    stable clients.
    
    Right now that’s easy to drift or miss when done ad-hoc.
    
    ## How to declare experimental methods and fields
    - **Experimental method**: add `#[experimental("method/name")]` to the
    `ClientRequest` variant in `client_request_definitions!`.
    - **Experimental field**: on the params struct, derive `ExperimentalApi`
    and annotate the field with `#[experimental("method/name.field")]` + set
    `inspect_params: true` for the method variant so
    `ClientRequest::experimental_reason()` inspects params for experimental
    fields.
    
    ## How the macro solves it
    - The new derive macro lives in
    `codex-rs/codex-experimental-api-macros/src/lib.rs` and is used via
    `#[derive(ExperimentalApi)]` plus `#[experimental("reason")]`
    attributes.
    - **Structs**:
    - Generates `ExperimentalApi::experimental_reason(&self)` that checks
    only annotated fields.
      - The “presence” check is type-aware:
        - `Option<T>`: `is_some_and(...)` recursively checks inner.
        - `Vec`/`HashMap`/`BTreeMap`: must be non-empty.
        - `bool`: must be `true`.
        - Other types: considered present (returns `true`).
    - Registers each experimental field in an `inventory` with `(type_name,
    serialized field name, reason)` and exposes `EXPERIMENTAL_FIELDS` for
    that type. Field names are converted from `snake_case` to `camelCase`
    for schema/TS filtering.
    - **Enums**:
    - Generates an exhaustive `match` returning `Some(reason)` for annotated
    variants and `None` otherwise (no wildcard arm).
    - **Wiring**:
    - Runtime gating uses `ExperimentalApi::experimental_reason()` in
    `codex-rs/app-server/src/message_processor.rs` to reject requests unless
    `InitializeParams.capabilities.experimental_api == true`.
    - Schema/TS export filters use the inventory list and
    `EXPERIMENTAL_CLIENT_METHODS` from `client_request_definitions!` to
    strip experimental methods/fields when `experimental_api` is false.
  • Plan mode: stream proposed plans, emit plan items, and render in TUI (#9786)
    ## Summary
    - Stream proposed plans in Plan Mode using `<proposed_plan>` tags parsed
    in core, emitting plan deltas plus a plan `ThreadItem`, while stripping
    tags from normal assistant output.
    - Persist plan items and rebuild them on resume so proposed plans show
    in thread history.
    - Wire plan items/deltas through app-server protocol v2 and render a
    dedicated proposed-plan view in the TUI, including the “Implement this
    plan?” prompt only when a plan item is present.
    
    ## Changes
    
    ### Core (`codex-rs/core`)
    - Added a generic, line-based tag parser that buffers each line until it
    can disprove a tag prefix; implements auto-close on `finish()` for
    unterminated tags. `codex-rs/core/src/tagged_block_parser.rs`
    - Refactored proposed plan parsing to wrap the generic parser.
    `codex-rs/core/src/proposed_plan_parser.rs`
    - In plan mode, stream assistant deltas as:
      - **Normal text** → `AgentMessageContentDelta`
      - **Plan text** → `PlanDelta` + `TurnItem::Plan` start/completion  
      (`codex-rs/core/src/codex.rs`)
    - Final plan item content is derived from the completed assistant
    message (authoritative), not necessarily the concatenated deltas.
    - Strips `<proposed_plan>` blocks from assistant text in plan mode so
    tags don’t appear in normal messages.
    (`codex-rs/core/src/stream_events_utils.rs`)
    - Persist `ItemCompleted` events only for plan items for rollout replay.
    (`codex-rs/core/src/rollout/policy.rs`)
    - Guard `update_plan` tool in Plan Mode with a clear error message.
    (`codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers/plan.rs`)
    - Updated Plan Mode prompt to:  
      - keep `<proposed_plan>` out of non-final reasoning/preambles  
      - require exact tag formatting  
      - allow only one `<proposed_plan>` block per turn  
      (`codex-rs/core/templates/collaboration_mode/plan.md`)
    
    ### Protocol / App-server protocol
    - Added `TurnItem::Plan` and `PlanDeltaEvent` to core protocol items.
    (`codex-rs/protocol/src/items.rs`, `codex-rs/protocol/src/protocol.rs`)
    - Added v2 `ThreadItem::Plan` and `PlanDeltaNotification` with
    EXPERIMENTAL markers and note that deltas may not match the final plan
    item. (`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2.rs`)
    - Added plan delta route in app-server protocol common mapping.
    (`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/common.rs`)
    - Rebuild plan items from persisted `ItemCompleted` events on resume.
    (`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/thread_history.rs`)
    
    ### App-server
    - Forward plan deltas to v2 clients and map core plan items to v2 plan
    items. (`codex-rs/app-server/src/bespoke_event_handling.rs`,
    `codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs`)
    - Added v2 plan item tests.
    (`codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/plan_item.rs`)
    
    ### TUI
    - Added a dedicated proposed plan history cell with special background
    and padding, and moved “• Proposed Plan” outside the highlighted block.
    (`codex-rs/tui/src/history_cell.rs`, `codex-rs/tui/src/style.rs`)

    ### Docs / Misc
    - Updated protocol docs to mention plan deltas.
    (`codex-rs/docs/protocol_v1.md`)
    - Minor plumbing updates in exec/debug clients to tolerate plan deltas.
    (`codex-rs/debug-client/src/reader.rs`, `codex-rs/exec/...`)
    
    ## Tests
    - Added core integration tests:
      - Plan mode strips plan from agent messages.
      - Missing `</proposed_plan>` closes at end-of-message.  
      (`codex-rs/core/tests/suite/items.rs`)
    - Added unit tests for generic tag parser (prefix buffering, non-tag
    lines, auto-close). (`codex-rs/core/src/tagged_block_parser.rs`)
    - Existing app-server plan item tests in v2.
    (`codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/plan_item.rs`)
    
    ## Notes / Behavior
    - Plan output no longer appears in standard assistant text in Plan Mode;
    it streams via `PlanDelta` and completes as a `TurnItem::Plan`.
    - The final plan item content is authoritative and may diverge from
    streamed deltas (documented as experimental).
    - Reasoning summaries are not filtered; prompt instructs the model not
    to include `<proposed_plan>` outside the final plan message.
