• [apps] Fix app loading logic. (#11518)

  When `app/list` is called with `force_refetch=True`, we should seed the
  results with what is already cached instead of starting from an empty
  list. Otherwise when we send app/list/updated events, the client will
  first see an empty list of accessible apps and then get the updated one.

• app-server: stabilize detached review start on Windows (#11646)

  ## Why
  
  `review_start_with_detached_delivery_returns_new_thread_id` has been
  failing on Windows CI. The failure mode is a process crash
  (`tokio-runtime-worker` stack overflow) during detached review setup,
  which causes EOF in the test harness.
  
  This test is intended to validate detached review thread identity, not
  shell snapshot behavior. We also still want detached review to avoid
  unnecessary rollout-path rediscovery when the parent thread is already
  loaded.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Updated detached review startup in
  `codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs`:
    - `start_detached_review` now receives the loaded parent thread.
    - It prefers `parent_thread.rollout_path()`.
  - It falls back to `find_thread_path_by_id_str(...)` only if the
  in-memory path is unavailable.
  - Hardened the review test fixture in
  `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/review.rs` by setting
  `shell_snapshot = false` in test config, so this test no longer depends
  on unrelated Windows PowerShell snapshot initialization.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server`
  - Verified
  `suite::v2::review::review_start_with_detached_delivery_returns_new_thread_id`
  passes locally.
  
  ## Notes
  
  - Related context: rollout-path lookup behavior changed in #10532.

• feat: introduce Permissions (#11633)

  ## Why
  We currently carry multiple permission-related concepts directly on
  `Config` for shell/unified-exec behavior (`approval_policy`,
  `sandbox_policy`, `network`, `shell_environment_policy`,
  `windows_sandbox_mode`).
  
  Consolidating these into one in-memory struct makes permission handling
  easier to reason about and sets up the next step: supporting named
  permission profiles (`[permissions.PROFILE_NAME]`) without changing
  behavior now.
  
  This change is mostly mechanical: it updates existing callsites to go
  through `config.permissions`, but it does not yet refactor those
  callsites to take a single `Permissions` value in places where multiple
  permission fields are still threaded separately.
  
  This PR intentionally **does not** change the on-disk `config.toml`
  format yet and keeps compatibility with legacy config keys.
  
  ## What Changed
  - Introduced `Permissions` in `core/src/config/mod.rs`.
  - Added `Config::permissions` and moved effective runtime permission
  fields under it:
    - `approval_policy`
    - `sandbox_policy`
    - `network`
    - `shell_environment_policy`
    - `windows_sandbox_mode`
  - Updated config loading/building so these effective values are still
  derived from the same existing config inputs and constraints.
  - Updated Windows sandbox helpers/resolution to read/write via
  `permissions`.
  - Threaded the new field through all permission consumers across core
  runtime, app-server, CLI/exec, TUI, and sandbox summary code.
  - Updated affected tests to reference `config.permissions.*`.
  - Renamed the struct/field from
  `EffectivePermissions`/`effective_permissions` to
  `Permissions`/`permissions` and aligned variable naming accordingly.
  
  ## Verification
  - `just fix -p codex-core -p codex-tui -p codex-cli -p codex-app-server
  -p codex-exec -p codex-utils-sandbox-summary`
  - `cargo build -p codex-core -p codex-tui -p codex-cli -p
  codex-app-server -p codex-exec -p codex-utils-sandbox-summary`

• feat(app-server): experimental flag to persist extended history (#11227)

  This PR adds an experimental `persist_extended_history` bool flag to
  app-server thread APIs so rollout logs can retain a richer set of
  EventMsgs for non-lossy Thread > Turn > ThreadItems reconstruction (i.e.
  on `thread/resume`).
  
  ### Motivation
  Today, our rollout recorder only persists a small subset (e.g. user
  message, reasoning, assistant message) of `EventMsg` types, dropping a
  good number (like command exec, file change, etc.) that are important
  for reconstructing full item history for `thread/resume`, `thread/read`,
  and `thread/fork`.
  
  Some clients want to be able to resume a thread without lossiness. This
  lossiness is primarily a UI thing, since what the model sees are
  `ResponseItem` and not `EventMsg`.
  
  ### Approach
  This change introduces an opt-in `persist_full_history` flag to preserve
  those events when you start/resume/fork a thread (defaults to `false`).
  
  This is done by adding an `EventPersistenceMode` to the rollout
  recorder:
  - `Limited` (existing behavior, default)
  - `Extended` (new opt-in behavior)
  
  In `Extended` mode, persist additional `EventMsg` variants needed for
  non-lossy app-server `ThreadItem` reconstruction. We now store the
  following ThreadItems that we didn't before:
  - web search
  - command execution
  - patch/file changes
  - MCP tool calls
  - image view calls
  - collab tool outcomes
  - context compaction
  - review mode enter/exit
  
  For **command executions** in particular, we truncate the output using
  the existing `truncate_text` from core to store an upper bound of 10,000
  bytes, which is also the default value for truncating tool outputs shown
  to the model. This keeps the size of the rollout file and command
  execution items returned over the wire reasonable.
  
  And we also persist `EventMsg::Error` which we can now map back to the
  Turn's status and populates the Turn's error metadata.
  
  #### Updates to EventMsgs
  To truly make `thread/resume` non-lossy, we also needed to persist the
  `status` on `EventMsg::CommandExecutionEndEvent` and
  `EventMsg::PatchApplyEndEvent`. Previously it was not obvious whether a
  command failed or was declined (similar for apply_patch). These
  EventMsgs were never persisted before so I made it a required field.

• app-server: thread resume subscriptions (#11474)

  This stack layer makes app-server thread event delivery connection-aware
  so resumed/attached threads only emit notifications and approval prompts
  to subscribed connections.
  
  - Added per-thread subscription tracking in `ThreadState`
  (`subscribed_connections`) and mapped subscription ids to `(thread_id,
  connection_id)`.
  - Updated listener lifecycle so removing a subscription or closing a
  connection only removes that connection from the thread’s subscriber
  set; listener shutdown now happens when the last subscriber is gone.
  - Added `connection_closed(connection_id)` plumbing (`lib.rs` ->
  `message_processor.rs` -> `codex_message_processor.rs`) so disconnect
  cleanup happens immediately.
  - Scoped bespoke event handling outputs through `TargetedOutgoing` to
  send requests/notifications only to subscribed connections.
  - Kept existing threadresume behavior while aligning with the latest
  split-loop transport structure.

• 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

• Cache cloud requirements (#11305)

  We're loading these from the web on every startup. This puts them in a
  local file with a 1hr TTL.
  
  We sign the downloaded requirements with a key compiled into the Codex
  CLI to prevent unsophisticated tampering (determined circumvention is
  outside of our threat model: after all, one could just compile Codex
  without any of these checks).
  
  If any of the following are true, we ignore the local cache and re-fetch
  from Cloud:
  * The signature is invalid for the payload (== requirements, sign time,
  ttl, user identity)
  * The identity does not match the auth'd user's identity
  * The TTL has expired
  * We cannot parse requirements.toml from the payload

• chore: persist turn_id in rollout session and make turn_id uuid based (#11246)

  Problem:
  1. turn id is constructed in-memory;
  2. on resuming threads, turn_id might not be unique;
  3. client cannot no the boundary of a turn from rollout files easily.
  
  This PR does three things:
  1. persist `task_started` and `task_complete` events;
  1. persist `turn_id` in rollout turn events;
  5. generate turn_id as unique uuids instead of incrementing it in
  memory.
  
  This helps us resolve the issue of clients wanting to have unique turn
  ids for resuming a thread, and knowing the boundry of each turn in
  rollout files.
  
  example debug logs
  ```
  2026-02-11T00:32:10.746876Z DEBUG codex_app_server_protocol::protocol::thread_history: built turn from rollout items turn_index=8 turn=Turn { id: "019c4a07-d809-74c3-bc4b-fd9618487b4b", items: [UserMessage { id: "item-24", content: [Text { text: "hi", text_elements: [] }] }, AgentMessage { id: "item-25", text: "Hi. I’m in the workspace with your current changes loaded and ready. Send the next task and I’ll execute it end-to-end." }], status: Completed, error: None }

Ready for the next change in `codex-rs`; I can continue from the current in-progress diff or start a new task." }], status: Completed, error: None }
  2026-02-11T00:32:10.746899Z DEBUG codex_app_server_protocol::protocol::thread_history: built turn from rollout items turn_index=10 turn=Turn { id: "019c4a19-41f0-7db0-ad78-74f1503baeb8", items: [UserMessage { id: "item-28", content: [Text { text: "hello", text_elements: [] }] }, AgentMessage { id: "item-29", text: "Hello. Send the specific change you want in `codex-rs`, and I’ll implement it and run the required checks." }], status: Completed, error: None }
  ```
  
  backward compatibility:
  if you try to resume an old session without task_started and
  task_complete event populated, the following happens:
  - If you resume and do nothing: those reconstructed historical IDs can
  differ next time you resume.
  - If you resume and send a new turn: the new turn gets a fresh UUID from
  live submission flow and is persisted, so that new turn’s ID is stable
  on later resumes.
  I think this behavior is fine, because we only care about deterministic
  turn id once a turn is triggered.

• feat: retain NetworkProxy, when appropriate (#11207)

  As of this PR, `SessionServices` retains a
  `Option<StartedNetworkProxy>`, if appropriate.
  
  Now the `network` field on `Config` is `Option<NetworkProxySpec>`
  instead of `Option<NetworkProxy>`.
  
  Over in `Session::new()`, we invoke `NetworkProxySpec::start_proxy()` to
  create the `StartedNetworkProxy`, which is a new struct that retains the
  `NetworkProxy` as well as the `NetworkProxyHandle`. (Note that `Drop` is
  implemented for `NetworkProxyHandle` to ensure the proxies are shutdown
  when it is dropped.)
  
  The `NetworkProxy` from the `StartedNetworkProxy` is threaded through to
  the appropriate places.

• fix(app-server): for external auth, replace id_token with chatgpt_acc… (#11240)

  …ount_id and chatgpt_plan_type
  
  ### Summary
  Following up on external auth mode which was introduced here:
  https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/10012
  
  Turns out some clients have a differently shaped ID token and don't have
  a chosen workspace (aka chatgpt_account_id) encoded in their ID token.
  So, let's replace `id_token` param with `chatgpt_account_id` and
  `chatgpt_plan_type` (optional) when initializing the external ChatGPT
  auth mode (`account/login/start` with `chatgptAuthTokens`).
  
  The client was able to test end-to-end with a Codex build from this
  branch and verified it worked!

• [apps] Improve app loading. (#10994)

  There are two concepts of apps that we load in the harness:
  
  - Directory apps, which is all the apps that the user can install.
  - Accessible apps, which is what the user actually installed and can be
  $ inserted and be used by the model. These are extracted from the tools
  that are loaded through the gateway MCP.
  
  Previously we wait for both sets of apps before returning the full apps
  list. Which causes many issues because accessible apps won't be
  available to the UI or the model if directory apps aren't loaded or
  failed to load.
  
  In this PR we are separating them so that accessible apps can be loaded
  separately and are instantly available to be shown in the UI and to be
  provided in model context. We also added an app-server event so that
  clients can subscribe to also get accessible apps without being blocked
  on the full app list.
  
  - [x] Separate accessible apps and directory apps loading.
  - [x] `app/list` request will also emit `app/list/updated` notifications
  that app-server clients can subscribe. Which allows clients to get
  accessible apps list to render in the $ menu without being blocked by
  directory apps.
  - [x] Cache both accessible and directory apps with 1 hour TTL to avoid
  reloading them when creating new threads.
  - [x] TUI improvements to redraw $ menu and /apps menu when app list is
  updated.

• Defer persistence of rollout file (#11028)

  - Defer rollout persistence for fresh threads (`InitialHistory::New`):
  keep rollout events in memory and only materialize rollout file + state
  DB row on first `EventMsg::UserMessage`.
  - Keep precomputed rollout path available before materialization.
  - Change `thread/start` to build thread response from live config
  snapshot and optional precomputed path.
  - Improve pre-materialization behavior in app-server/TUI: clearer
  invalid-request errors for file-backed ops and a friendlier `/fork` “not
  ready yet” UX.
  - Update tests to match deferred semantics across
  start/read/archive/unarchive/fork/resume/review flows.
  - Improved resilience of user_shell test, which should be unrelated to
  this change but must be affected by timing changes
  
  For Reviewers:
  * The primary change is in recorder.rs
  * Most of the other changes were to fix up broken assumptions in
  existing tests
  
  Testing:
  * Manually tested CLI
  * Exercised app server paths by manually running IDE Extension with
  rebuilt CLI binary
  * Only user-visible change is that `/fork` in TUI generates visible
  error if used prior to first turn

• app-server: treat null mode developer instructions as built-in defaults (#10983)

  ## Summary
  - make `turn/start` normalize
  `collaborationMode.settings.developer_instructions: null` to the
  built-in instructions for the selected mode
  - prevent app-server clients from accidentally clearing mode-switch
  developer instructions by sending `null`
  - document this behavior in the v2 protocol and app-server docs
  
  ## What changed
  - `codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs`
    - added a small `normalize_turn_start_collaboration_mode` helper
    - in `turn_start`, apply normalization before `OverrideTurnContext`
  - `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/turn_start.rs`
  - extended `turn_start_accepts_collaboration_mode_override_v2` to assert
  the outgoing request includes default-mode instruction text when the
  client sends `developer_instructions: null`
  - `codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2.rs`
  - clarified `TurnStartParams.collaboration_mode` docs:
  `settings.developer_instructions: null` means use built-in mode
  instructions
  - regenerated schema fixture:
  - `codex-rs/app-server-protocol/schema/typescript/v2/TurnStartParams.ts`
  - docs:
    - `codex-rs/app-server/README.md`
    - `codex-rs/docs/codex_mcp_interface.md`

• 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:

• Leverage state DB metadata for thread summaries (#10621)

  Summary:
  - read conversation summaries and cwd info from the state DB when
  possible so we no longer rely on rollout files for metadata and avoid
  extra I/O
  - persist CLI version in thread metadata, surface it through summary
  builders, and add the necessary DB migration hooks
  - simplify thread listing by using enriched state DB data directly
  rather than reading rollout heads
  
  Testing:
  - Not run (not requested)

• feat(linux-sandbox): add bwrap support (#9938)

  ## Summary
  This PR introduces a gated Bubblewrap (bwrap) Linux sandbox path. The
  curent Linux sandbox path relies on in-process restrictions (including
  Landlock). Bubblewrap gives us a more uniform filesystem isolation
  model, especially explicit writable roots with the option to make some
  directories read-only and granular network controls.
  
  This is behind a feature flag so we can validate behavior safely before
  making it the default.
  
  - Added temporary rollout flag:
    - `features.use_linux_sandbox_bwrap`
  - Preserved existing default path when the flag is off.
  - In Bubblewrap mode:
  - Added internal retry without /proc when /proc mount is not permitted
  by the host/container.

• 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.

• Bump thread updated_at on unarchive to refresh sidebar ordering (#10280)

  ## Summary
  - Touch restored rollout files on `thread/unarchive` so `updatedAt`
  reflects the unarchive time.
  - Add a regression test to ensure unarchiving bumps `updated_at` from an
  old mtime.
  
  ## Notes
  This fixes the UX issue where unarchived old threads don’t reappear near
  the top of recent threads.

• chore: rename ChatGpt -> Chatgpt in type names (#10244)

  When using ChatGPT in names of types, we should be consistent, so this
  renames some types with `ChatGpt` in the name to `Chatgpt`. From
  https://rust-lang.github.io/api-guidelines/naming.html:
  
  > In `UpperCamelCase`, acronyms and contractions of compound words count
  as one word: use `Uuid` rather than `UUID`, `Usize` rather than `USize`
  or `Stdin` rather than `StdIn`. In `snake_case`, acronyms and
  contractions are lower-cased: `is_xid_start`.
  
  This PR updates existing uses of `ChatGpt` and changes them to
  `Chatgpt`. Though in all cases where it could affect the wire format, I
  visually inspected that we don't change anything there. That said, this
  _will_ change the codegen because it will affect the spelling of type
  names.
  
  For example, this renames `AuthMode::ChatGPT` to `AuthMode::Chatgpt` in
  `app-server-protocol`, but the wire format is still `"chatgpt"`.
  
  This PR also updates a number of types in `codex-rs/core/src/auth.rs`.

• feat: refactor CodexAuth so invalid state cannot be represented (#10208)

  Previously, `CodexAuth` was defined as follows:
  
  
  https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/d550fbf41afc09d7d7b5ac813aea38de07b2a73f/codex-rs/core/src/auth.rs#L39-L46
  
  But if you looked at its constructors, we had creation for
  `AuthMode::ApiKey` where `storage` was built using a nonsensical path
  (`PathBuf::new()`) and `auth_dot_json` was `None`:
  
  
  https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/d550fbf41afc09d7d7b5ac813aea38de07b2a73f/codex-rs/core/src/auth.rs#L212-L220
  
  By comparison, when `AuthMode::ChatGPT` was used, `api_key` was always
  `None`:
  
  
  https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/d550fbf41afc09d7d7b5ac813aea38de07b2a73f/codex-rs/core/src/auth.rs#L665-L671
  
  https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/10012 took things further because
  it introduced a new `ChatgptAuthTokens` variant to `AuthMode`, which is
  important in when invoking `account/login/start` via the app server, but
  most logic _internal_ to the app server should just reason about two
  `AuthMode` variants: `ApiKey` and `ChatGPT`.
  
  This PR tries to clean things up as follows:
  
  - `LoginAccountParams` and `AuthMode` in `codex-rs/app-server-protocol/`
  both continue to have the `ChatgptAuthTokens` variant, though it is used
  exclusively for the on-the-wire messaging.
  - `codex-rs/core/src/auth.rs` now has its own `AuthMode` enum, which
  only has two variants: `ApiKey` and `ChatGPT`.
  - `CodexAuth` has been changed from a struct to an enum. It is a
  disjoint union where each variant (`ApiKey`, `ChatGpt`, and
  `ChatGptAuthTokens`) have only the associated fields that make sense for
  that variant.

• feat(app-server): support external auth mode (#10012)

  This enables a new use case where `codex app-server` is embedded into a
  parent application that will directly own the user's ChatGPT auth
  lifecycle, which means it owns the user’s auth tokens and refreshes it
  when necessary. The parent application would just want a way to pass in
  the auth tokens for codex to use directly.
  
  The idea is that we are introducing a new "auth mode" currently only
  exposed via app server: **`chatgptAuthTokens`** which consist of the
  `id_token` (stores account metadata) and `access_token` (the bearer
  token used directly for backend API calls). These auth tokens are only
  stored in-memory. This new mode is in addition to the existing `apiKey`
  and `chatgpt` auth modes.
  
  This PR reuses the shape of our existing app-server account APIs as much
  as possible:
  - Update `account/login/start` with a new `chatgptAuthTokens` variant,
  which will allow the client to pass in the tokens and have codex
  app-server use them directly. Upon success, the server emits
  `account/login/completed` and `account/updated` notifications.
  - A new server->client request called
  `account/chatgptAuthTokens/refresh` which the server can use whenever
  the access token previously passed in has expired and it needs a new one
  from the parent application.
  
  I leveraged the core 401 retry loop which typically triggers auth token
  refreshes automatically, but made it pluggable:
  - **chatgpt** mode refreshes internally, as usual.
  - **chatgptAuthTokens** mode calls the client via
  `account/chatgptAuthTokens/refresh`, the client responds with updated
  tokens, codex updates its in-memory auth, then retries. This RPC has a
  10s timeout and handles JSON-RPC errors from the client.
  
  Also some additional things:
  - chatgpt logins are blocked while external auth is active (have to log
  out first. typically clients will pick one OR the other, not support
  both)
  - `account/logout` clears external auth in memory
  - Ensures that if `forced_chatgpt_workspace_id` is set via the user's
  config, we respect it in both:
  - `account/login/start` with `chatgptAuthTokens` (returns a JSON-RPC
  error back to the client)
  - `account/chatgptAuthTokens/refresh` (fails the turn, and on next
  request app-server will send another `account/chatgptAuthTokens/refresh`
  request to the client).
