## Why
#23813 switches the Windows sandbox runner path to `PermissionProfile`,
but it still left one runtime anchor for resolving symbolic
`:workspace_roots` entries. That is not enough once a turn has multiple
effective workspace roots: exact entries and deny globs under
`:workspace_roots` need to be materialized for every runtime root before
the command runner chooses token mode or builds ACL plans.
## What Changed
- Replaces the Windows runner/setup `permission_profile_cwd` plumbing
with `workspace_roots: Vec<AbsolutePathBuf>`.
- Resolves Windows-local `PermissionProfile` data with
`materialize_project_roots_with_workspace_roots(...)` instead of the
single-cwd helper.
- Threads `Config::effective_workspace_roots()` through core execution,
unified exec, TUI setup/read-grant flows, app-server setup, app-server
`command/exec`, and `debug sandbox` on Windows.
- Preserves those workspace roots through the zsh-fork escalation
executor instead of rebuilding them from `sandbox_policy_cwd`.
- Makes `ExecRequest::new(...)` and the remaining
`build_exec_request(...)` helper path take
`windows_sandbox_workspace_roots` explicitly so new call sites cannot
silently fall back to `vec![cwd]`.
- Clarifies the `debug sandbox` non-Windows comment: remaining
cwd-dependent resolution still uses `sandbox_policy_cwd`, while
`:workspace_roots` entries are already materialized from config roots.
- Updates elevated runner IPC `SpawnRequest` to send `workspace_roots`
and bumps the framed IPC protocol version to `3` for the payload shape
change.
- Adds Windows-local resolver coverage for expanding exact and glob
`:workspace_roots` entries across multiple roots, plus core helper
coverage proving explicit roots are preserved.

A local macOS cross-check with `cargo check --target
x86_64-pc-windows-msvc ...` did not reach crate Rust code because native
dependencies require Windows SDK headers (`windows.h` / `assert.h`) in
this environment; Windows CI remains the real target validation.
Two local targeted filters compile but do not run assertions on macOS:
`env -u CODEX_NETWORK_PROXY_ACTIVE -u CODEX_NETWORK_ALLOW_LOCAL_BINDING
just test -p codex-app-server --lib command_exec_processor` matched zero
tests, and `just test -p codex-linux-sandbox landlock` matched zero
tests because the landlock suite is Linux-only.
## Summary
Some permission profiles can encode filesystem reads that should remain
unavailable to the agent. Before this change, the model-visible context
and automatic approval review prompt summarized the effective
permissions as a legacy sandbox mode, which can omit permission-profile
filesystem entries from escalation decisions.
For example, a profile can grant workspace access while denying a
private subtree across every workspace root:
```toml
default_permissions = "restricted-workspace"
[permissions.restricted-workspace.workspace_roots]
"/Users/alice/project" = true
"/Users/alice/other-project" = true
[permissions.restricted-workspace.filesystem]
":minimal" = "read"
[permissions.restricted-workspace.filesystem.":workspace_roots"]
"." = "write"
"private" = "deny"
"private/**" = "deny"
```
The context window now describes the workspace roots and effective
filesystem side of the `PermissionProfile` directly, with deny entries
marked as non-escalatable:
```xml
<environment_context>
<cwd>/Users/alice/project</cwd>
<shell>zsh</shell>
<filesystem><workspace_roots><root>/Users/alice/project</root><root>/Users/alice/other-project</root></workspace_roots><permission_profile type="managed"><file_system type="restricted"><entry access="read"><special>:minimal</special></entry><entry access="write"><path>/Users/alice/project</path></entry><entry access="write"><path>/Users/alice/other-project</path></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><path>/Users/alice/project/private</path></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><path>/Users/alice/other-project/private</path></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><glob>/Users/alice/project/private/**</glob></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><glob>/Users/alice/other-project/private/**</glob></entry></file_system></permission_profile></filesystem>
</environment_context>
```
Managed requirements can impose the same kind of deny-read restriction:
```toml
[permissions.filesystem]
deny_read = [
"/Users/alice/project/private",
"/Users/alice/project/private/**",
]
```
The automatic approval review prompt also receives the parent turn's
denied-read context, so review decisions can account for the active
permission profile.
## What Changed
- Render the effective filesystem profile in `<environment_context>`,
including profile type, filesystem entries, workspace roots, and
non-escalatable deny entries.
- Persist effective `workspace_roots` in `TurnContextItem` so
resumed/replayed context does not have to bind `:workspace_roots`
through legacy `cwd` fallback.
- Add explicit permission instructions that denied reads are policy
restrictions, not escalation targets.
- Pass the parent turn's denied-read context into automatic approval
reviews.
- Add targeted coverage for prompt rendering, workspace-root
materialization, replay context, and review prompt context.
- Keep the prompt-context test expectations platform-aware so the same
filesystem rendering assertions pass on Unix and Windows paths.
## Testing
- `just test -p codex-core
context::environment_context::tests::serialize_environment_context_with_full_filesystem_profile`
- `just test -p codex-core
context::environment_context::tests::turn_context_item_filesystem_uses_workspace_roots_instead_of_cwd`
- `just test -p codex-core
context::permissions_instructions::permissions_instructions_tests::builds_permissions_from_profile_with_denied_reads`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
I also attempted `just test -p codex-core`; the changed prompt-context
tests passed, but the full local run did not complete cleanly in this
sandboxed macOS environment due unrelated user-shell `CODEX_SANDBOX*`
expectations and integration-test timeouts.
## Summary
Adds an optional `clientId` field to app-server v2 `UserInput` and
carries it through the core `UserInput` model so clients can correlate
echoed user input items without relying on payload equality.
## Details
- Adds `client_id: Option<String>` to core `UserInput` variants.
- Exposes the v2 app-server field as `clientId` on the wire and in
generated TypeScript.
- Preserves the id when converting between app-server v2 and core
protocol types.
- Regenerates app-server schema fixtures.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `just write-app-server-schema`

- `cargo test -p codex-protocol`
- `just fix -p codex-app-server-protocol`

- `git diff --check`
## Why
#23756 makes packaged Codex builds include and default to the bundled
zsh fork. The important reason to put that fork's directory at the front
of `PATH` is to keep executable-level escalation working after a command
leaves the original shell and later re-enters zsh through `env`.
The expected chain is:
1. The zsh fork runs the top-level shell command.
2. That command launches another program, such as `python3`, while
inheriting the `EXEC_WRAPPER` environment and the escalation socket fd.
3. That program spawns a shell script whose shebang is `#!/usr/bin/env
zsh` rather than `#!/bin/zsh`, and it does not close the escalation fd.
4. `/usr/bin/env` resolves `zsh` through `PATH`, so it must find the
packaged zsh fork before the system zsh.
5. Commands inside that nested script are intercepted by the zsh fork
and can still request escalation from Codex.
If `PATH` resolves `zsh` to the system shell instead, the nested script
loses zsh-fork exec interception. Commands that should request
escalation can then run only in the original sandbox, or fail there,
without Codex ever receiving the approval request.
Shell snapshots make this slightly more subtle: a snapshot can restore
an older `PATH` after the child shell starts. This PR treats the zsh
fork `PATH` prepend as an explicit environment override so snapshot
wrapping preserves it.
## What Changed
- Added shared zsh-fork runtime helpers that prepend the configured zsh
executable parent directory to `PATH` without duplicate entries.
- Applied the zsh fork `PATH` prepend to both zsh-fork `shell_command`
launches and unified-exec zsh-fork launches before sandbox command
construction.
- Kept the shell-command zsh-fork backend API narrow: it derives the
configured zsh path from session services and rebuilds its sandbox
environment from `req.env`, rather than accepting a second, competing
environment map or a separately threaded bin dir.
- Kept Unix-only zsh-fork `PATH` mutation out of Windows clippy-visible
mutability.
- Added coverage for duplicate `PATH` entries, for preserving the zsh
fork prepend through shell snapshot wrapping, and for the nested
`python3` -> `#!/usr/bin/env zsh` escalation flow.
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
I left final test validation to CI after the latest review-comment
cleanup. Before that cleanup, `just test -p codex-core zsh_fork` passed
locally for the zsh-fork-focused tests.
## Why
Dynamic tools are defined at thread start and already stored in rollout
`SessionMeta`, which restores resumed and forked sessions. Persisting
the same tools through SQLite creates a second runtime persistence path
that is unnecessary prework for the explicit namespace refactor.
## What changed
- Restore missing thread-start dynamic tools directly from rollout
history, including when SQLite is enabled.
- Remove SQLite dynamic-tool reads, writes, backfill, and thread
metadata patch plumbing.
- Add SQLite-enabled resume integration coverage that verifies a
rollout-defined dynamic tool is still sent after resume.
## Compatibility
The existing `thread_dynamic_tools` table is intentionally not dropped
even though it's now unused. Older Codex binaries are allowed to open
databases migrated by newer binaries and still reference this table;
dropping it would break that mixed-version path. See
[here](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/state/src/migrations.rs#L10-L11).

- `just test -p codex-core --test all

## Summary
- Add `request_kind` values for foreground turn, startup prewarm,
compaction, and detached memory model requests.
- Attach compaction dispatch metadata to local Responses, legacy
`/v1/responses/compact`, and remote v2 compact requests.
- Add the existing logical context-window identifier as `window_id` on
turn-owned model request metadata.
- Keep identity fields optional for detached memory requests, while
still emitting `request_kind="memory"` in non-git/no-sandbox workspaces.
## Root Cause
`x-codex-turn-metadata` has more than one producer. Foreground turns and
compaction requests own a real turn and should carry that turn identity.
Detached memory stage-one requests do not own a foreground turn, so
absent identity fields are valid rather than missing data. Startup
websocket prewarm is also a model request, but it has `generate=false`
and must not be counted as a foreground turn.
`thread_source` or session source identifies where a thread came from
(for example review, guardian, or another subagent). `request_kind`
identifies what the current outbound model request is doing (`turn`,
`prewarm`, `compaction`, or `memory`). A review or guardian thread can
issue either a normal turn request or a compaction request, so source
cannot replace request kind.
## Behavior / Impact
- Ordinary foreground requests send `request_kind="turn"`, their real
identity fields, and `window_id="<thread_id>:<window_generation>"`.
- Startup websocket warmup requests send `request_kind="prewarm"` so
they are not counted as foreground turns.
- Compaction requests send `request_kind="compaction"`, their real
owning turn identity, the existing `window_id`, and
`compaction.{trigger,reason,implementation,phase,strategy}`.
- Detached memory stage-one requests send `request_kind="memory"`
without `session_id`, `thread_id`, `turn_id`, or `window_id`; when no
workspace metadata exists, the kind-only header is still emitted.
- `session_id`, `thread_id`, `turn_id`, and `window_id` remain optional
in the header schema because detached memory requests do not own a
foreground turn or context window.
- `window_id` is not a new ID system: it is copied from the already-sent
`x-codex-window-id` / WS client metadata value at model-request dispatch
time.
- Existing `x-codex-window-id` HTTP/WS emission, value format,
generation advancement, resume behavior, and fork reset behavior are
unchanged.
- `request_kind`, `window_id`, and upstream turn-owned identity fields
remain schema-owned; input `responsesapi_client_metadata` cannot replace
their canonical values.
- No table, DAG, export, app-server API, or MCP `_meta` schema changes
are included.
A compaction attempt stopped by a pre-compact hook issues no model
request and therefore has no request header; its outcome remains in
analytics events. Status, error, duration, and token deltas also remain
analytics fields rather than request-header fields.
Future detached-memory attribution using a real initiating turn ID as
`trigger_turn_id` is intentionally not part of this PR.
## Sync With Main
- Final pushed head `716342e79` is rebased onto `origin/main@0d37db4b2`.
- The metadata conflict came from upstream `#24160`, which added
`forked_from_thread_id` on the same `turn_metadata` surface. Resolution
preserves that field and its protection from client metadata override
alongside this PR's request-kind, compaction, and window-id fields.
- While resolving the overlapping commits, I removed an accidental
recursive model-request overlay and a duplicate detached-memory header
builder before completing the rebase.
## Latency / User Experience Boundary
- Foreground turns perform no new filesystem, git, or network work. New
fields are inserted into metadata already serialized for outgoing
requests.
- Compaction issues the same model/HTTP requests with the same prompt,
model, service tier, and sampling settings; only metadata bytes change.
- Startup prewarm already sent metadata; it is now correctly classified
as `prewarm`.
- Non-git detached memory now sends a small kind-only metadata header
rather than no header.
- This client diff adds no user-visible latency mechanism beyond
negligible serialization and header bytes on already-existing requests.
## Validation

## Summary
- Add the missing additional_context field to the guardian review
Op::UserInput test initializer.
## Test plan

helper binary, and unrelated timeouts)
## Summary
Clear inherited legacy `notify` from Guardian review session config,
since we should not be passing auto review threads into `notify`
targets. Keeps legacy notify payload and hook runtime behavior unchanged
for normal user turns.
## Testing
- [x] add a Guardian config regression and dedicated Guardian
integration test so review sessions cannot inherit parent notify hooks
## Summary
- Bump the workspace Rust toolchain from `1.93.0` to `1.95.0` across
Cargo, Bazel, CI, release workflows, devcontainers, and the Codex
environment config.
- Refresh `MODULE.bazel.lock` so the Bazel Rust toolchain artifacts
match the new version.
- Leave purpose-specific toolchains unchanged, including the
`argument-comment-lint` nightly and the upstream `rusty_v8` `1.91.0`
build pin.
- Includes fixes for new lints from `just fix` and a few codex-authored
fixes for lints without a suggestion.
## Why
Remote image submissions currently wrap native `input_image` spans in
literal `<image>` and `</image>` text spans. Those extra prompt tokens
add structure without providing label or routing information.
## What Changed
- Serialize `UserInput::Image` directly as an `input_image` content
span.
- Preserve named local-image framing and legacy wrapper parsing for
labeled attachments and existing histories.
- Update existing request-shape expectations for drag-and-drop images,
model switching, and compaction.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-protocol`
- Focused `codex-core` run covering
`drag_drop_image_persists_rollout_request_shape`,
`model_change_from_image_to_text_strips_prior_image_content`, and
`snapshot_request_shape_pre_turn_compaction_including_incoming_user_message`
## Notes
- A broader `just test -p codex-core` run was attempted; the affected
tests passed, while the overall run failed in unrelated CLI, MCP, and
tooling tests plus a `thread_manager` timeout.
## Why
When Codex calls responsesapi, we currently send `session_id`,
`thread_id`, and `turn_id` among other things as
`client_metadata["x-codex-turn-metadata"]`. This PR adds
`forked_from_thread_id` which helps explain the "lineage" of a forked
thread.
## What's changed
- Track the immediate history source copied into a forked thread through
thread/session creation, including subagent and review turn metadata
paths.
- Include `forked_from_thread_id` in Codex turn metadata while
preventing turn-scoped Responses API client metadata from overwriting
Codex-owned lineage fields.
- Add coverage for fork lineage in turn metadata and the app-server
Responses API request path.
## Summary
Adds experimental `additionalContext` support to `turn/start` and
`turn/steer` so clients can provide ephemeral external context, such as
browser or automation state, without turning that plumbing into a
visible user prompt or triggering user-prompt lifecycle behavior.
## API Shape
The parameter shape is:
```ts
additionalContext?: Record<string, {
value: string
kind: "untrusted" | "application"
}> | null
```
Example:
```json
{
"additionalContext": {
"browser_info": {
"value": "Active tab is CI failures.",
"kind": "untrusted"
},
"automation_info": {
"value": "CI rerun is in progress.",
"kind": "application"
}
}
}
```
The keys are opaque and caller-defined.
## Context Injection
When provided, accepted entries are inserted into model context as
hidden contextual message items, not as visible thread user-message
items.
`kind: "untrusted"` entries are inserted with role `user`:
```text
<external_${key}>${value}</external_${key}>
```
`kind: "application"` entries are inserted with role `developer`:
```text
<${key}>${value}</${key}>
```
Values are not escaped. Each value is truncated to 1k approximate tokens
before wrapping.
For `turn/start`, accepted additional context is inserted before normal
user input. For `turn/steer`, additional context is merged only when the
steer includes non-empty user input; context-only steers still reject as
empty input.
## Dedupe Strategy
`AdditionalContextStore` lives on session state and stores the latest
complete additional-context map.
Each `turn/start` or non-empty `turn/steer` treats its
`additionalContext` as the current complete set of values. Entries are
injected only when the key is new or the exact entry for that key
changed, including `value` or `kind`. After merging, the store is
replaced with the provided map, so omitted keys are removed from the
retained set and can be injected again later if reintroduced.
Omitting `additionalContext`, passing `null`, or passing an empty object
resets the store to empty and injects nothing.
## What Changed
- Threads experimental v2 `additionalContext` through app-server into
core turn start and steer handling.
- Adds separate contextual fragment types for untrusted user-role
context and application developer-role context.
- Uses pending response input items so additional context can be
combined with normal user input without treating it as prompt text.
- Adds integration coverage for start/steer flow, role routing,
dedupe/reset behavior, deletion/re-add behavior, hook-blocked input
behavior, empty context-only steer rejection, external-fragment marker
matching, and truncation.
## Why
The
`approving_apply_patch_for_session_skips_future_prompts_for_same_file`
integration test writes `apply_patch_allow_session.txt` under the
process cwd while exercising outside-workspace patch approval behavior.
With `just test` now being the normal validation path, that file can be
left behind in the checkout when the test runs or fails, creating
confusing untracked state.
## What changed
- Registers the resolved `apply_patch_allow_session.txt` path with
`tempfile::TempPath` before the test removes and recreates it through
`apply_patch`.
- Preserves the existing outside-workspace path shape so the approval
behavior under test does not change.
- Lets `TempPath` remove the generated file when the test exits,
including panic paths.
## Verification
- `just test -p codex-core --test all
approving_apply_patch_for_session_skips_future_prompts_for_same_file`
## Why
The `non_prefixed_mcp_tool_names` feature should be applied where MCP
tools become model-visible, not by remapping names later in core.
Keeping the decision in `McpConnectionManager` construction makes
`ToolInfo` the single shaped view that spec building, deferred tool
search, routing, and unavailable-tool placeholders can consume directly.
This also preserves the existing external behavior while the feature is
off, and keeps the feature-on behavior for code mode and hooks explicit
at the manager boundary.
## What Changed
- Add `McpToolNameMode` to `codex-mcp` and flow it through `McpConfig`
into `McpConnectionManager::new`.
- Normalize MCP `ToolInfo` names in the manager using either
legacy-prefixed namespaces or non-prefixed namespaces; the legacy path
adds `mcp__` without restoring the old trailing namespace suffix.
- Remove the core-side MCP name remapping path so specs, tool search,
session resolution, and unavailable-tool placeholder construction use
the manager-provided `ToolName` values directly.
- Keep code mode flattening on the `__` namespace separator.
- Preserve hook compatibility by giving non-prefixed MCP hook names
legacy `mcp__...` matcher aliases.
- Add/adjust integration and unit coverage for non-prefixed code-mode
behavior, hook matching with the feature on and off, and manager-level
legacy prefixing.
## Testing

## Why
The old config-profile mechanism should no longer influence runtime
behavior now that profile selection has moved to file-based `--profile`
config files. Core already rejects a selected legacy `profile = "..."`
with a migration error in
[`core/src/config/mod.rs`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/d6451fcb79edc4a71bc9e811bcda06fd3c36562e/codex-rs/core/src/config/mod.rs#L2521-L2529),
but a few residual consumers still read legacy `[profiles.*]` data while
performing managed-feature checks and personality migration.
That kept dead legacy profile state relevant after selection had been
removed, and could make personality migration depend on a stale or
missing old profile.
## What changed
- Stop scanning legacy `[profiles.*]` feature settings when validating
managed feature requirements.
- Make personality migration consider only top-level `personality` and
`model_provider` settings.
- Remove the now-unused `ConfigToml::get_config_profile` helper.
- Update personality migration coverage to verify that legacy profile
personality fields and missing legacy profile names no longer affect
that migration path.
This keeps the legacy `profile` / `profiles` config shape available for
the remaining compatibility and migration diagnostics; it only removes
these behavior consumers.
## Verification
- Updated `core/tests/suite/personality_migration.rs` for the new
legacy-profile behavior.
- Focused test command: `cargo test -p codex-core
personality_migration`.
## Summary
Change code-mode stored value updates to merge writes by key instead of
replacing the session's complete stored-value map after each cell
completes.
Previously, each cell received a snapshot of stored values and returned
the complete resulting map. When multiple cells ran concurrently, a
later completion could overwrite values written by another cell because
it committed an older snapshot.
This change moves stored-value ownership into `CodeModeService`:
- Each runtime starts from the service's current stored values.
- Runtime completion reports only keys written by that cell.
- The service merges those writes into the current stored-value map on
successful completion.
- Core no longer replaces its stored-value state from a cell result.
As a result, concurrently executing cells can update different stored
keys without clobbering one another.
The move into CodeModeService is motivated by a desire to have this
lifetime tied to a new lifetime object on that side in a subsequent PR.
# Why
`PreToolUse`, `PostToolUse`, and `updatedInput` coverage for local
function tools currently depends on each handler remembering to wire up
the hook contract itself. That makes coverage easy to miss as new
function tools are added, even though most of them share the same basic
shape: a model-facing function call with JSON arguments.
# What
This makes `CoreToolRuntime` provide the default hook contract for
ordinary local function tools:
- build generic `PreToolUse` and `PostToolUse` payloads from the
function tool name and arguments
- apply `updatedInput` rewrites back into function-tool arguments
through the same default path
- let tool outputs override the post-hook input or response when they
have a more stable hook-facing contract
The exceptions stay explicit:
- hosted tools remain outside the generic local function path
- code-mode `wait` and `write_stdin` opt out for now
- `PostToolUse` feedback replaces only the model-visible response, so
code mode keeps its typed tool result
With the generic path in place, the MCP and extension-tool adapters no
longer need their own duplicate pre/post hook plumbing. The new coverage
exercises the registry default plus end-to-end local function behavior
for pre-hook blocking, `updatedInput` rewriting, and post-hook context.
## Why
[Recent PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22709) removed
`trace_id` from `TurnContextItem`.
## What changed
- Add to `TurnStartedEvent` so rollout consumers can correlate turns
with telemetry traces.
- Note that the branch name is out of date because I originally re-added
to `TurnContextItem`, but we decided to move it to `TurnStartedEvent`.
## Verification

- `cargo test -p codex-state`
## Why
Remote compaction v2 sends a normal `/responses` request with a
compaction trigger. It should follow the retry semantics used by normal
Responses streaming calls for transient stream/request failures, while
keeping a smaller per-transport retry budget because compact attempts
can run much longer than normal turns.
## What changed
- Add a v2 compaction retry loop that uses `stream_max_retries`,
matching normal Responses turn retry mechanics.
- Cap the compact v2 retry budget at 2 retries per transport with
`min(stream_max_retries, 2)`.
- Retry retryable request-open and post-open stream collection failures
through the same loop.
- Use the existing 200ms exponential backoff and requested retry delay
handling used by normal turn retries.
- Emit the same `Reconnecting... n/max` stream-error notification
pattern.
- Fall back from WebSockets to HTTPS after the compact v2 stream retry
budget is exhausted, then reset the retry counter for HTTPS.
- Keep final remote-compaction failure logging after retries/fallback
are exhausted.
- Treat compact stream EOF before `response.completed` as a retryable
stream failure.
- Add compact v2 regression coverage with `request_max_retries = 0` and
`stream_max_retries = 2`, covering both request-open failure and
opened-stream EOF in one end-to-end test.
## Tests
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-core remote_compact_v2`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
`cargo test` for the core and other crates fails on a fresh macOS
checkout without the right stack size variable. This change encourages
using the just test command that sets the environment up correctly.
As a bonus, this should encourage agents to get more benefit out of
nextest's parallel execution.
## Summary
- Treat MCP tools with `readOnlyHint: true` as parallel-safe even when
`supports_parallel_tool_calls` is unset or `false`.
- Keep server-level `supports_parallel_tool_calls` as an additive
override for non-read-only tools.
- Add focused unit coverage for the MCP handler eligibility decision.
- Update RMCP integration coverage to keep the serial baseline on a
mutable tool, verify read-only concurrency without server opt-in, and
preserve the server opt-in concurrency path separately.
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib tools::handlers::mcp::tests::`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
stdio_mcp_read_only_tool_calls_run_concurrently_without_server_opt_in`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
stdio_mcp_parallel_tool_calls_opt_in_runs_concurrently`

# What
When a normal hook fires inside a thread-spawned subagent, Codex now
includes these optional top-level fields in the hook input:
- `agent_id`: the child thread id
- `agent_type`: the subagent role
Root-agent hook inputs omit these fields. `SubagentStart` and
`SubagentStop` keep their existing required `agent_id` and `agent_type`
fields because those events are inherently subagent-scoped.
This does not change matcher behavior. Tool hooks still match on tool
name, compact hooks still match on trigger, and `UserPromptSubmit` still
ignores matchers. Only `SubagentStart` and `SubagentStop` match on
`agent_type`.
# Why
This is a follow-up stacked on top of the `plugin_hooks` default-on
change. Once we are comfortable making plugin hooks part of the normal
plugin behavior, the separate feature flag stops buying us much and
leaves extra branching/cache state behind.
# What
- remove the `PluginHooks` feature and generated config-schema entries
- make plugin hook loading/listing follow plugin enablement directly
- drop plugin-manager cache/state that only existed to distinguish
hook-flag toggles
- remove tests and fixtures that modeled `plugin_hooks = true/false`
## 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`
## Why
Profile v2 is taking over the user-facing profile selection path, so the
CLI no longer needs to expose the transitional `--profile-v2` spelling.
This switches the public args surface to `--profile` before the
remaining legacy profile plumbing is removed separately.
## What
- Rebind `--profile` and `-p` to the v2 profile name argument that
selects `$CODEX_HOME/<name>.config.toml`.
- Stop parsing the legacy shared CLI profile argument while keeping its
implementation path in place for follow-up cleanup.
- Update CLI validation, profile-name parse errors, and the
legacy-profile collision message/tests to refer to `--profile`.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-cli -p codex-config -p codex-protocol -p
codex-utils-cli`
## What
Remove the exact captured request-count assertion from the
`SubagentStart` hook integration test while still waiting for the child
request that matches the injected hook context.
## Why
The test owns the start-hook behavior and already verifies that the
child request reaches the context matcher plus that the start/session
hook logs have the expected invocations. Counting every request captured
by the response mock makes the test sensitive to lifecycle timing
outside that contract and has been flaky in CI.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
suite::subagent_notifications::subagent_start_replaces_session_start_and_injects_context
-- --exact`
## Why
`prewarm_websocket` intentionally stays out of rollout inference
tracing, but the next traced websocket request can still reuse the
warmup `response_id` and send an empty `input` delta. If tracing records
that wire payload verbatim, replay sees an incremental request whose
parent was never traced and cannot reconstruct the conversation.
This fixes that at the producer boundary instead of relaxing
`rollout-trace` replay semantics around unresolved
`previous_response_id` values.
## What
- track whether the last websocket response came from an untraced warmup
and clear that state when the websocket session is reset or reconnected
- when a traced websocket request reuses that warmup parent, keep
sending the compressed websocket request on the wire but record the
logical `ResponsesApiRequest` in the rollout trace
- add a regression test that proves replay reconstructs the logical user
message even though the websocket follow-up carries
`previous_response_id = warm-1` with empty `input`
- update `InferenceTraceAttempt::record_started` docs to reflect that
callers may record a logical request rather than the exact transport
payload
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
responses_websocket_request_prewarm_traces_logical_request`
Add owning plugin id to MCP tool call items so we can better filter them
at plugin level.
## Summary
- add optional `plugin_id` to MCP tool-call items and legacy begin/end
events
- propagate plugin metadata into emitted core items and app-server v2
`ThreadItem::McpToolCall`
- preserve plugin ids through app-server replay/redaction paths and
regenerate v2 schema fixtures
## Testing
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `just fmt`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-core mcp_tool_call_item_includes_plugin_id --lib`
- `cargo check -p codex-tui --tests`
- `cargo check -p codex-app-server --tests`
- `git diff --check`
## Notes
- `just fix -p codex-core` completed with two non-fatal
`too_many_arguments` warnings on the touched MCP notification helpers.
- A broader `cargo test -p codex-core` run passed core unit tests, then
hit shell/sandbox/snapshot failures in the integration target.
- A broader app-server downstream run hit the existing
`in_process::tests::in_process_start_clamps_zero_channel_capacity` stack
overflow; `cargo test -p codex-exec` also hit the existing sandbox
expectation mismatch in
`thread_lifecycle_params_include_legacy_sandbox_when_no_active_profile`.
## Why
Model catalog responses can now advertise a nullable
`default_service_tier` for each model. Codex needs to preserve three
distinct states all the way from config/app-server inputs to inference:
- no explicit service tier, so the client may apply the current model
catalog default when FastMode is enabled
- explicit `default`, meaning the user intentionally wants standard
routing
- explicit catalog tier ids such as `priority`, `flex`, or future tiers
Keeping those states distinct prevents the UI from showing one tier
while core sends another, especially after model switches or app-server
`thread/start` / `turn/start` updates.
## What Changed
- Plumbed `default_service_tier` through model catalog protocol types,
app-server model responses, generated schemas, model cache fixtures, and
provider/model-manager conversions.
- Added the request-only `default` service tier sentinel and normalized
legacy config spelling so `fast` in `config.toml` still materializes as
the runtime/request id `priority`.
- Moved catalog default resolution to the TUI/client side, including
recomputing the effective service tier when model/FastMode-dependent
surfaces change.
- Updated app-server thread lifecycle config construction so
`serviceTier: null` preserves explicit standard-routing intent by
mapping to `default` instead of internal `None`.
- Kept core responsible for validating explicit tiers against the
current model and stripping `default` before `/v1/responses`, without
applying catalog defaults itself.
## Validation
- `CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 cargo build -p codex-cli`
- `CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 cargo test -p codex-app-server model_list`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui service_tier`
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol service_tier_for_request`
- `cargo test -p codex-core get_service_tier`
- `RUST_MIN_STACK=8388608 CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 cargo test -p codex-core
service_tier`
## Why
The `goals` feature is ready to be available without requiring users to
opt into experimental features. Keeping it behind the beta flag leaves
persisted thread goals and automatic goal continuation disabled by
default.
This PR also marks the goal-related app server APIs and events as no
longer experimental.
## What changed
- Mark `goals` as `Stage::Stable`.
- Enable `goals` by default in `codex-rs/features/src/lib.rs`.

`SubagentStop` runs when a thread-spawned subagent turn is about to
finish. Thread-spawned subagents use `SubagentStop` instead of the
normal root-agent `Stop` hook.
Configured handlers match on `agent_type`. Hook input includes the
normal stop fields plus:
- `agent_id`: the child thread id.
- `agent_type`: the resolved subagent type.
- `agent_transcript_path`: the child subagent transcript path.
- `transcript_path`: the parent thread transcript path.
- `last_assistant_message`: the final assistant message from the child
turn, when available.
- `stop_hook_active`: `true` when the child is already continuing
because an earlier stop-like hook blocked completion.
`SubagentStop` shares the same completion-control semantics as `Stop`,
scoped to the child turn:
- No decision allows the child turn to finish.
- `decision: "block"` with a non-empty `reason` records that reason as
hook feedback and continues the child with that prompt.
- `continue: false` stops the child turn. If `stopReason` is present,
Codex surfaces it as the stop reason.
# Lifecycle Scope
Only thread-spawned subagents run `SubagentStop`.
Internal/system subagents such as Review, Compact, MemoryConsolidation,
and Other do not run normal `Stop` hooks and do not run `SubagentStop`.
This avoids exposing synthetic matcher labels for internal
implementation paths.
# Stack
1. #22782: add `SubagentStart`.
2. This PR: add `SubagentStop`.
3. #22882: add subagent identity to normal hook inputs.
## Why
This is the next step in the Windows sandbox migration away from the
legacy `SandboxPolicy` abstraction. #22923 moved write-root and token
decisions onto `ResolvedWindowsSandboxPermissions`, but setup and
identity still accepted `SandboxPolicy` and converted internally. This
PR pushes that conversion outward so the setup path consumes the
resolved Windows permission view directly.
## What Changed
- Changed `SandboxSetupRequest` to carry
`ResolvedWindowsSandboxPermissions` instead of `SandboxPolicy` plus
policy cwd.
- Updated setup refresh/elevation and identity credential preparation to
use resolved permissions for read roots, write roots, network identity,
and deny-write payload planning.
- Removed the production `allow.rs` legacy wrapper; allow-path
computation now takes resolved permissions directly.
- Added a permissions-based world-writable audit entry point while
keeping the existing legacy wrapper for compatibility.
- Updated legacy ACL setup and the core Windows setup bridge to
construct resolved permissions at the boundary.
- Hardened the Windows sandbox integration test helper staging so Bazel
retries can reuse an already-staged helper if a prior sandbox helper
process still has the executable open.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-windows-sandbox`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all --no-run`
- `just fix -p codex-windows-sandbox`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- Attempted `cargo check -p codex-windows-sandbox --target
x86_64-pc-windows-gnullvm`, but the local machine is missing
`x86_64-w64-mingw32-clang`; Windows CI should cover that target.

* __->__ #23167
## Why
This is the third PR in the Windows sandbox `SandboxPolicy` ->
`PermissionProfile` migration stack.
#22896 introduced `ResolvedWindowsSandboxPermissions`, and #22918 moved
elevated runner IPC to carry `PermissionProfile`. This PR starts moving
the remaining setup/spawn helpers away from asking legacy enum questions
like “is this `WorkspaceWrite`?” and toward resolved runtime permission
questions like “does this profile require write capability roots?”
## What changed
- Added resolved-permissions helpers for network identity and
write-capability detection.
- Moved setup write-root gathering to operate on
`ResolvedWindowsSandboxPermissions`, with the legacy `SandboxPolicy`
wrapper left in place for existing call sites.
- Updated identity setup, elevated capture setup, and world-writable
audit denies to use resolved write roots.
- Updated spawn preparation to carry resolved permissions in
`SpawnContext` and use them for network blocking, setup write roots,
elevated capability SID selection, and legacy capability roots.
- Removed a now-unused legacy write-root helper.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-windows-sandbox`
- `just fix -p codex-windows-sandbox`
- Existing stack checks are green on #22896 and #22918; CI has started

# Why
Compaction replaces the live conversation history, so hooks that use
`SessionStart` to re-inject durable model context need a way to run
again after that rewrite.
Related - #19905 adds dedicated compact lifecycle hooks
# What
- add `compact` as a supported `SessionStart` source and matcher value
- change pending `SessionStart` state from a single slot to a small FIFO
queue so `resume` / `startup` / `clear` can be preserved alongside a
later `compact`
- drain all queued `SessionStart` sources before the next model request,
preserving their original order
# Testing
The new integration coverage verifies both the basic `compact` matcher
path and the stacked `resume` -> `compact` case where both hooks
contribute `additionalContext` to the next model turn.
## Summary
- migrate exec-server remote registration naming from executor to
environment
- align CLI, public Rust exports, registry error messages, and relay
test fixtures with the environment registry contract
- keep the live registration path and response model consistent with
`/cloud/environment/{environment_id}/register`
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-exec-server
remote::tests::register_environment_posts_with_auth_provider_headers
--manifest-path /Users/richardlee/code/codex/codex-rs/Cargo.toml`
- `cargo test -p codex-exec-server --test relay

opened; will update after completion if needed)
## Why
Code mode can use nested unified exec calls as data sources. When those
calls omit `max_output_tokens`, code mode should receive raw command
output so the script can parse or summarize it itself. When code mode
does provide `max_output_tokens`, that explicit nested budget should be
respected, including values above the default unified exec limit, rather
than being capped before code mode sees the result.
## What
- Preserve direct unified exec truncation behavior, while letting
code-mode exec/write_stdin keep `max_output_tokens` as `None` unless
explicitly supplied.
- Make code-mode tool results use raw output when no explicit limit is
present, and use the explicit nested limit directly when one is
specified.
- Refactor unified exec output formatting so `truncated_output` takes
the caller-selected token budget.
- Add e2e integration coverage for explicit nested exec limits, omitted
nested exec limits, outer exec limit propagation, omitted-limit outputs
that exceed both the default and a small truncation policy, explicit
nested limits above those caps, and high explicit limits that still
compact larger command output.
- Reuse the code-mode turn setup helper while directly asserting the
exact exec output item in each test.
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
- Not run locally per repo guidance; CI should validate the e2e
integration tests.
## Why
Issue #23214 reports `/ps` showing no background terminals while the
status line still says it is waiting for a background terminal. The race
is in core: `write_stdin` can poll a process that exits before the
response returns. The process manager correctly returns `process_id:
None`, but the handler still emitted a `TerminalInteraction` event using
the requested session id, causing clients to believe a dead process was
still being polled.
Fixes#23214.
## What changed
- Suppress `TerminalInteraction` events for empty `write_stdin` polls
once `response.process_id` is `None`.
- Continue emitting interactions for non-empty stdin, even if that input
causes the process to exit before the response returns.
- Extend the unified exec integration test to assert completed empty
polls do not emit terminal interactions.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
unified_exec_emits_one_begin_and_one_end_event`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
unified_exec_emits_terminal_interaction_for_write_stdin`
`cargo test -p codex-core` currently aborts in unrelated
`agent::control::tests::resume_agent_from_rollout_uses_edge_data_when_descendant_metadata_source_is_stale`
with a reproducible stack overflow.
## Summary
- Add `list_available_plugins_to_install` as the inventory step for
plugin and connector install suggestions.
- Slim `request_plugin_install` so it only handles the actual
elicitation, instead of carrying the full discoverable list in its
prompt.
- Emit send-time telemetry when an install elicitation is dispatched,
including requested tool identity in the event payload.
- Emit install-result telemetry through `SessionTelemetry`, including
tool type, user response action, and completion status.
- Update registration and tests to cover the new two-step flow while
keeping the existing `tool_suggest` feature gate unchanged.
## Testing
- `just fmt`

# What
`SubagentStart` runs once when Codex creates a thread-spawned subagent,
before that child sends its first model request. Thread-spawned
subagents use `SubagentStart` instead of the normal root-agent
`SessionStart` hook.
Configured handlers match on the subagent `agent_type`, using the same
value passed to `spawn_agent`. When no agent type is specified, Codex
uses the default agent type.
Hook input includes the normal session-start fields plus:
- `agent_id`: the child thread id.
- `agent_type`: the resolved subagent type.
`SubagentStart` may return `hookSpecificOutput.additionalContext`. That
context is added to the child conversation before the first model
request.
# Lifecycle Scope
Only thread-spawned subagents run `SubagentStart`.
Internal/system subagents such as Review, Compact, MemoryConsolidation,
and Other do not run normal `SessionStart` hooks and do not run
`SubagentStart`. This avoids exposing synthetic matcher labels for
internal implementation paths.
Also the `SessionStart` hook no longer fires for subagents, this matches
behavior with other coding agents' implementation
# Stack
1. This PR: add `SubagentStart`.
2. #22873: add `SubagentStop`.
3. #22882: add subagent identity to normal hook inputs.
## Why
Filesystem permission profiles used `none` for deny-read entries, which
is less direct than the action the entry actually represents. This
change makes `deny` the canonical filesystem permission spelling while
preserving compatibility for older configs that still send `none`.
## What changed
- rename `FileSystemAccessMode::None` to `Deny`
- serialize and generate schemas with `deny` as the canonical value
- retain `none` only as a legacy input alias for temporary config
compatibility
- update filesystem glob diagnostics and regression coverage to use the
canonical spelling
- refresh config and app-server schema fixtures to match the new wire
shape
## Validation
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-core config_toml_deserializes_permission_profiles
--lib`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
read_write_glob_patterns_still_reject_non_subpath_globs --lib`
Earlier in the session, a broad `cargo test -p codex-core` run reached
unrelated pre-existing failures in timing/snapshot/git-info tests under
this environment; the targeted surfaces touched by this PR passed
cleanly.
## Why
The v1 sub-agent tools are a single tool family, but they were exposed
as separate flat function tools. This makes the model-visible surface
less clearly grouped and leaves the legacy names in the same flat
namespace as newer agent tooling.
## What
- Wraps the v1 `spawn_agent`, `send_input`, `resume_agent`,
`wait_agent`, and `close_agent` specs in the `multi_agent_v1` namespace.
- Registers the corresponding handlers with namespaced runtime tool
names.
- Updates tool-planning, deferred tool search, and sub-agent
notification tests to assert the namespace shape and child `spawn_agent`
lookup.
## Verification
- Updated `codex-core` coverage for the v1 multi-agent tool plan,
deferred tool search output, and sub-agent tool descriptions.
Summary: defer v1 multi-agent tools when tool_search and namespace tools
are available; keep concise searchable descriptions and move the v1
usage guidance into developer instructions; add targeted coverage.
Testing: not run per request; ran just fmt.
## Why
`model_auto_compact_token_limit` has only been able to budget the full
active context. That makes it hard to set a small "growth since
compaction" budget for sessions that preserve a large carried window
prefix: the preserved prefix can consume the whole budget and force
immediate repeated compaction.
This PR adds an opt-in `body_after_prefix` scope so callers can apply
`model_auto_compact_token_limit` to sampled output and later growth
after the current carried prefix, while still forcing compaction before
the full model context window is exhausted.
## What changed
- Adds `AutoCompactTokenLimitScope` with the existing `total` behavior
as the default and a new `body_after_prefix` mode:
[`config_types.rs`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/973806b1cb35792555bead994cb3ed94656eb171/codex-rs/protocol/src/config_types.rs#L24-L37).
- Threads `model_auto_compact_token_limit_scope` through config loading,
`Config`, `core-api`, and app-server v2 schema/TypeScript generation.
- Records the first observed input-token count for a `body_after_prefix`
compaction window and uses it as the baseline when deciding whether the
scoped auto-compaction budget is exhausted:
[`turn.rs`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/973806b1cb35792555bead994cb3ed94656eb171/codex-rs/core/src/session/turn.rs#L743-L781).
- Keeps a hard context-window cap in `body_after_prefix`, so scoped
budgeting cannot let the active context overrun the usable window.
## Verification
Added compact-suite coverage for the two key behaviors:
`body_after_prefix` does not re-compact just because the carried prefix
is larger than the scoped budget, and it still compacts when the total
active context reaches the configured context window:
[`compact.rs`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/973806b1cb35792555bead994cb3ed94656eb171/codex-rs/core/tests/suite/compact.rs#L3003-L3128).
**Stack position:** [5 of 7]
## Summary
This PR adds `Op::ThreadSettings`, a queued settings-only update
mechanism for changing stored thread settings without starting a new
turn. It also removes the legacy `Op::OverrideTurnContext` in the same
layer, so reviewers can see the replacement and deletion together.
## Changes
- Add `Op::ThreadSettings` for settings-only queued updates.
- Emit `ThreadSettingsApplied` with the effective thread settings
snapshot after core applies an update.
- Route settings-only updates through the same submission queue as user
input.
- Migrate remaining `OverrideTurnContext` tests and callers to the
queued `Op::ThreadSettings` path.
- Delete `Op::OverrideTurnContext` from the core protocol and submission
loop.
