• [codex] Omit fork turns from thread started notifications (#19093)

  ## Why
  
  `thread/fork` responses intentionally include copied history so the
  caller can render the fork immediately, but `thread/started` is a
  lifecycle notification. The v2 `Thread` contract says notifications
  should return `turns: []`, and the fork path was reusing the response
  thread directly, causing copied turns to be emitted through
  `thread/started` as well.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Route app-server `thread/started` notification construction through a
  helper that clears `thread.turns` before sending.
  - Keep `thread/fork` responses unchanged so callers still receive copied
  history.
  - Add persistent and ephemeral fork coverage that asserts
  `thread/started` emits an empty `turns` array while the response retains
  fork history.
  
  ## Testing
  
  - `just fmt`
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server`

• Fix hang on turn/interrupt (#18392)

  Fix a bug where the `turn/interrupt` RPC hangs when interrupting a turn
  that has already completed.
  
  Before this change, `turn/interrupt` requests were queued in app-server
  and only answered when a later TurnAborted event arrived. If the target
  turn was already complete, core treated Op::Interrupt as a no-op, so no
  abort event was emitted and the RPC could hang indefinitely.
  
  This change fixes that in two places:
  
  * Reject turn/interrupt immediately with `INVALID_REQUEST` when the
  requested turn is no longer the active turn.
  * Resolve any already-accepted pending interrupt requests when the turn
  reaches TurnComplete, covering the case where a turn finishes naturally
  after the interrupt request is accepted but before it aborts.
  
  I tested this by adding a failing test in
  707487c0634834f6741986b64f61886c2dc10108. You may view the results here:

• permissions: make profiles represent enforcement (#19231)

  ## Why
  
  `PermissionProfile` is becoming the canonical permissions abstraction,
  but the old shape only carried optional filesystem and network fields.
  It could describe allowed access, but not who is responsible for
  enforcing it. That made `DangerFullAccess` and `ExternalSandbox` lossy
  when profiles were exported, cached, or round-tripped through app-server
  APIs.
  
  The important model change is that active permissions are now a disjoint
  union over the enforcement mode. Conceptually:
  
  ```rust
  pub enum PermissionProfile {
      Managed {
          file_system: FileSystemSandboxPolicy,
          network: NetworkSandboxPolicy,
      },
      Disabled,
      External {
          network: NetworkSandboxPolicy,
      },
  }
  ```
  
  This distinction matters because `Disabled` means Codex should apply no
  outer sandbox at all, while `External` means filesystem isolation is
  owned by an outside caller. Those are not equivalent to a broad managed
  sandbox. For example, macOS cannot nest Seatbelt inside Seatbelt, so an
  inner sandbox may require the outer Codex layer to use no sandbox rather
  than a permissive one.
  
  ## How Existing Modeling Maps
  
  Legacy `SandboxPolicy` remains a boundary projection, but it now maps
  into the higher-fidelity profile model:
  
  - `ReadOnly` and `WorkspaceWrite` map to `PermissionProfile::Managed`
  with restricted filesystem entries plus the corresponding network
  policy.
  - `DangerFullAccess` maps to `PermissionProfile::Disabled`, preserving
  the “no outer sandbox” intent instead of treating it as a lax managed
  sandbox.
  - `ExternalSandbox { network_access }` maps to
  `PermissionProfile::External { network }`, preserving external
  filesystem enforcement while still carrying the active network policy.
  - Split runtime policies that legacy `SandboxPolicy` cannot faithfully
  express, such as managed unrestricted filesystem plus restricted
  network, stay `Managed` instead of being collapsed into
  `ExternalSandbox`.
  - Per-command/session/turn grants remain partial overlays via
  `AdditionalPermissionProfile`; full `PermissionProfile` is reserved for
  complete active runtime permissions.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Change active `PermissionProfile` into a tagged union: `managed`,
  `disabled`, and `external`.
  - Keep partial permission grants separate with
  `AdditionalPermissionProfile` for command/session/turn overlays.
  - Represent managed filesystem permissions as either `restricted`
  entries or `unrestricted`; `glob_scan_max_depth` is non-zero when
  present.
  - Preserve old rollout compatibility by accepting the pre-tagged `{
  network, file_system }` profile shape during deserialization.
  - Preserve fidelity for important edge cases: `DangerFullAccess`
  round-trips as `disabled`, `ExternalSandbox` round-trips as `external`,
  and managed unrestricted filesystem + restricted network stays managed
  instead of being mistaken for external enforcement.
  - Preserve configured deny-read entries and bounded glob scan depth when
  full profiles are projected back into runtime policies, including
  unrestricted replacements that now become `:root = write` plus deny
  entries.
  - Regenerate the experimental app-server v2 JSON/TypeScript schema and
  update the `command/exec` README example for the tagged
  `permissionProfile` shape.
  
  ## Compatibility
  
  Legacy `SandboxPolicy` remains available at config/API boundaries as the
  compatibility projection. Existing rollout lines with the old
  `PermissionProfile` shape continue to load. The app-server
  `permissionProfile` field is experimental, so its v2 wire shape is
  intentionally updated to match the higher-fidelity model.

• [codex] Support remote plugin install writes (#18917)

  ## Summary
  - Add a remote plugin install write call that POSTs the selected remote
  plugin to the ChatGPT cloud plugin API.
  - Align remote install with the latest remote read contract:
  `pluginName` carries the backend remote plugin id directly, for example
  `plugins~Plugin_linear`, and install no longer synthesizes
  `<name>@<marketplace>` ids.
  - Validate remote install ids with the same character rules as remote
  read, return the same install response shape as local installs, and
  include mocked app-server coverage for the write path.
  
  ## Validation
  - `just fmt`
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server --test all plugin_install`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core-plugins`
  - `just fix -p codex-app-server`

• app-server: persist device key bindings in sqlite (#19206)

  ## Why
  
  Device-key providers should only own platform key material. The
  account/client binding used to authorize a signing payload is app-server
  state, and keeping that state in provider-specific metadata makes the
  same check harder to audit and harder to share across platform
  implementations.
  
  Persisting the binding in the shared state database gives the device-key
  crate a platform-neutral source of truth before it asks a provider to
  sign. It also lets app-server move potentially blocking key operations
  off the main message processor path, which matters once providers may
  wait for OS authentication prompts.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Add a `device_key_bindings` state migration plus `StateRuntime`
  helpers keyed by `key_id`.
  - Add an async `DeviceKeyBindingStore` abstraction to `codex-device-key`
  and use it from `DeviceKeyStore::create` and `DeviceKeyStore::sign`.
  - Keep provider calls behind async store methods and run the synchronous
  provider work through `spawn_blocking`.
  - Wire app-server device-key RPC handling to the SQLite-backed binding
  store and spawn response/error delivery tasks for device-key requests.
  - Run the turn-start tracing test on the existing larger current-thread
  test harness after the larger async surface made the default test stack
  too small locally.
  
  ## Validation

• feat: let model providers own model discovery (#18950)

  ## Why
  
  `codex-models-manager` had grown to own provider-specific concerns:
  constructing OpenAI-compatible `/models` requests, resolving provider
  auth, emitting request telemetry, and deciding how provider catalogs
  should be sourced. That made the manager harder to reuse for providers
  whose model catalog is not fetched from the OpenAI `/models` endpoint,
  such as Amazon Bedrock.
  
  This change moves provider-specific model discovery behind
  provider-owned implementations, so the models manager can focus on
  refresh policy, cache behavior, picker ordering, and model metadata
  merging.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Introduced a `ModelsManager` trait with separate `OpenAiModelsManager`
  and `StaticModelsManager` implementations.
  - Added `ModelsEndpointClient` so OpenAI-compatible HTTP fetching lives
  outside `codex-models-manager`.
  - Moved `/models` request construction, provider auth resolution,
  timeout handling, and request telemetry into `codex-model-provider` via
  `OpenAiModelsEndpoint`.
  - Added provider-owned `models_manager(...)` construction so configured
  OpenAI-compatible providers use `OpenAiModelsManager`, while
  static/catalog-backed providers can return `StaticModelsManager`.
  - Added an Amazon Bedrock static model catalog for the GPT OSS Bedrock
  model IDs.
  - Updated core/session/thread manager code and tests to depend on
  `Arc<dyn ModelsManager>`.
  - Moved offline model test helpers into
  `codex_models_manager::test_support`.
  ## Metadata References
  
  The Bedrock catalog metadata is based on the official Amazon Bedrock
  OpenAI model documentation:
  
  - [Amazon Bedrock OpenAI
  models](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/userguide/model-parameters-openai.html)
  lists the Bedrock model IDs, text input/output modalities, and `128,000`
  token context window for `gpt-oss-20b` and `gpt-oss-120b`.
  - [Amazon Bedrock `gpt-oss-120b` model
  card](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/userguide/model-card-openai-gpt-oss-120b.html)
  lists the `bedrock-runtime` model ID `openai.gpt-oss-120b-1:0`, the
  `bedrock-mantle` model ID `openai.gpt-oss-120b`, text-only modalities,
  and `128K` context window.
  - [OpenAI `gpt-oss-120b` model
  docs](https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/models/gpt-oss-120b)
  document configurable reasoning effort with `low`, `medium`, and `high`,
  plus text input/output modality.
  
  The display names, default reasoning effort, and priority ordering are
  Codex-local catalog choices.
  
  ## Test Plan
  - Manually verified app-server model listing with an AWS profile:
  
  ```shell
  CODEX_HOME="$(mktemp -d)" cargo run -p codex-app-server-test-client -- \
    --codex-bin ./target/debug/codex \
    -c 'model_provider="amazon-bedrock"' \
    -c 'model_providers.amazon-bedrock.aws.profile="codex-bedrock"' \
    -c 'model_providers.amazon-bedrock.aws.region="us-west-2"' \
    model-list
  ```
  
  The response returned the Bedrock catalog with `openai.gpt-oss-120b-1:0`
  as the default model and `openai.gpt-oss-20b-1:0` as the second listed
  model, both text-only and supporting low/medium/high reasoning effort.

• feat: expose AWS account state from account/read (#19048)

  ## Why
  
  AWS/Bedrock mode currently reports `account: null` with
  `requiresOpenaiAuth: false` from `account/read`. That suppresses the
  OpenAI-auth requirement, but it does not let app clients distinguish AWS
  auth from any other non-OpenAI custom provider. For the prototype AWS
  provider UX, clients need a simple provider-derived signal so they can
  suppress ChatGPT/API-key login and token-refresh paths without
  hardcoding Bedrock checks.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Adds an `aws` variant to the v2 `Account` protocol union.
  - Adds `ProviderAccountKind` to `codex-model-provider` so the runtime
  provider owns the app-visible account classification.
  - Makes Amazon Bedrock return `ProviderAccountKind::Aws` from the
  model-provider layer.
  - Updates app-server `account/read` to map `ProviderAccountKind` to the
  existing `GetAccountResponse` wire shape.
  - Preserves the existing `account: null, requiresOpenaiAuth: false`
  behavior for other non-OpenAI providers.
  - Regenerates the app-server protocol schema fixtures.
  - Adds coverage for provider account classification and for the Amazon
  Bedrock `account/read` response.
  
  ## Testing
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-model-provider`
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server get_account_with_aws_provider`
  
  ## Notes
  
  I attempted `just bazel-lock-update` and `just bazel-lock-check`, but
  both are blocked in my local environment because `bazel` is not
  installed.

• Increase app-server WebSocket outbound buffer (#19246)

  Fixes #18203.
  
  ## Why
  
  Remote TUI clients connected through `codex app-server --listen
  ws://...` can receive short bursts of outbound turn and tool-output
  notifications. The WebSocket transport previously used the shared
  128-message channel capacity for its outbound writer queue, so a healthy
  client that briefly lagged during normal output streaming could fill the
  queue and be disconnected immediately.
  
  This is a smaller mitigation than #18265: instead of adding a new
  overflow/backpressure pipeline, keep the existing non-blocking router
  behavior and give WebSocket clients enough bounded headroom for
  realistic bursts.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Added a WebSocket-only outbound writer capacity of `64 * 1024`
  messages.
  - Used that larger capacity only for the WebSocket data writer queue in
  `codex-rs/app-server/src/transport/websocket.rs`.
  - Left the shared `CHANNEL_CAPACITY` and the existing disconnect-on-full
  behavior unchanged for internal/control channels and genuinely stuck
  clients.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server
  transport::tests::broadcast_does_not_block_on_slow_connection`
  - Manually retried the #18203 repro prompt against the remote TUI and
  confirmed it stayed connected.

• refactor: route Codex auth through AuthProvider (#18811)

  ## Summary
  
  This PR moves Codex backend request authentication from direct
  bearer-token handling to `AuthProvider`.
  
  The new `codex-auth-provider` crate defines the shared request-auth
  trait. `CodexAuth::provider()` returns a provider that can apply all
  headers needed for the selected auth mode.
  
  This lets ChatGPT token auth and AgentIdentity auth share the same
  callsite path:
  - ChatGPT token auth applies bearer auth plus account/FedRAMP headers
  where needed.
  - AgentIdentity auth applies AgentAssertion plus account/FedRAMP headers
  where needed.
  
  Reference old stack: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/17387/changes
  
  ## Callsite Migration
  
  | Area | Change |
  | --- | --- |
  | backend-client | accepts an `AuthProvider` instead of a raw
  token/header |
  | chatgpt client/connectors | applies auth through
  `CodexAuth::provider()` |
  | cloud tasks | keeps Codex-backend gating, applies auth through
  provider |
  | cloud requirements | uses Codex-backend auth checks and provider
  headers |
  | app-server remote control | applies provider headers for backend calls
  |
  | MCP Apps/connectors | gates on `uses_codex_backend()` and keys caches
  from generic account getters |
  | model refresh | treats AgentIdentity as Codex-backend auth |
  | OpenAI file upload path | rejects non-Codex-backend auth before
  applying headers |
  | core client setup | keeps model-provider auth flow and allows
  AgentIdentity through provider-backed OpenAI auth |
  
  ## Stack

• Add remote thread config endpoint (#18908)

  ## Why
  
  App-server needs a way to fetch thread-scoped config from the remote
  thread config service when the user config opts into that behavior. This
  mirrors the existing experimental remote thread store endpoint while
  keeping local/noop behavior as the default.
  
  Startup paths also need to avoid silently dropping the remote config
  endpoint after the first config load. The stdio app-server path
  discovers the endpoint from the initial config and installs the real
  thread config loader for later config builds, while in-process clients
  used by TUI/exec now select the same remote loader directly from their
  provided config.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Added `experimental_thread_config_endpoint` to `ConfigToml`, `Config`,
  and `core/config.schema.json`.
  - Added config parsing coverage for the new setting.
  - Updated app-server startup to select `RemoteThreadConfigLoader` from
  the initially loaded config, falling back to `NoopThreadConfigLoader`
  when unset.
  - Let `ConfigManager` replace its thread config loader after startup
  discovery so later config loads use the selected loader.
  - Updated in-process app-server client startup to pass
  `RemoteThreadConfigLoader` when its config has
  `experimental_thread_config_endpoint` set.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - Added `experimental_thread_config_endpoint_loads_from_config_toml`.
  - Added
  `runtime_start_args_use_remote_thread_config_loader_when_configured`.
  - Ran `cargo check -p codex-app-server --lib`.
  - Ran `cargo test -p codex-app-server-client`.

• Respect explicit untrusted project config (#18626)

  ## Why
  
  Fixes #18475. A `-c` override such as `projects.<cwd>.trust_level =
  "untrusted"` is meant to be a runtime config override, but app-server
  thread startup treated any non-trusted project as eligible for automatic
  trust persistence when a permissive sandbox/cwd was requested. That
  meant an explicit `untrusted` session override could still cause
  `config.toml` to be updated with `trusted`.
  
  ## What changed
  
  The app-server auto-trust path now runs only when the active project
  trust level is unknown. Explicit `trusted` and explicit `untrusted`
  values are both respected, regardless of whether they came from
  persisted config or session flags.
  
  A focused `thread/start` test now covers the explicit `untrusted` case
  with a permissive sandbox request.

  For callers who expect to be paginating the results for the UI, they can

• Clarify cloud requirements error messages (#19078)

  ## Why
  The current cloud-requirements failures say `workspace-managed config`,
  which is ambiguous and can read like it refers to local managed config
  such as `managed_config.toml`.
  
  This code path only applies to cloud requirements, so the user-facing
  message should name that source directly.
  
  ## What changed
  - Updated the load failure in
  [`codex-rs/cloud-requirements/src/lib.rs`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/46e704d1f93054daa9a3b5a9100333c540c81d50/codex-rs/cloud-requirements/src/lib.rs)
  to say `failed to load cloud requirements (workspace-managed policies)`.
  - Updated the parse failure in the same file to use the same `cloud
  requirements (workspace-managed policies)` terminology.
  - Kept `workspace-managed` hyphenated because it is used as a compound
  modifier.
  - Updated the matching assertion in
  [`codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/46e704d1f93054daa9a3b5a9100333c540c81d50/codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs).
  - Reused `CLOUD_REQUIREMENTS_LOAD_FAILED_MESSAGE` in the
  `codex-cloud-requirements` test where the test is asserting that

• app-server: accept command permission profiles (#18283)

  ## Why
  
  `command/exec` is another app-server entry point that can run under
  caller-provided permissions. It needs to accept `PermissionProfile`
  directly so command execution is not left behind on `SandboxPolicy`
  while thread APIs move forward.
  
  Command-level profiles also need to preserve the semantics clients
  expect from profile-relative paths. `:cwd` and cwd-relative deny globs
  should be anchored to the resolved command cwd for a command-specific
  profile, while configured deny-read restrictions such as `**/*.env =
  none` still need to be enforced because they can come from config or
  requirements rather than the command override itself.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  This adds `permissionProfile` to `CommandExecParams`, rejects requests
  that combine it with `sandboxPolicy`, and converts accepted profiles
  into the runtime filesystem/network permissions used for command
  execution.
  
  When a command supplies a profile, the app-server resolves that profile
  against the command cwd instead of the thread/server cwd. It also
  preserves configured deny-read entries and `globScanMaxDepth` on the
  effective filesystem policy so one-off command overrides cannot drop
  those read protections. The PR also updates app-server docs/schema
  fixtures and adds command-exec coverage for accepted, rejected,
  cwd-scoped, and deny-read-preserving profile paths.
  
  ## Verification

• codex: support hooks in config.toml and requirements.toml (#18893)

  ## Summary
  
  Support the existing hooks schema in inline TOML so hooks can be
  configured from both `config.toml` and enterprise-managed
  `requirements.toml` without requiring a separate `hooks.json` payload.
  
  This gives enterprise admins a way to ship managed hook policy through
  the existing requirements channel while still leaving script delivery to
  MDM or other device-management tooling, and it keeps `hooks.json`
  working unchanged for existing users.
  
  This also lays the groundwork for follow-on managed filtering work such
  as #15937, while continuing to respect project trust gating from #14718.
  It does **not** implement `allow_managed_hooks_only` itself.
  
  NOTE: yes, it's a bit unfortunate that the toml isn't formatted as
  closely as normal to our default styling. This is because we're trying
  to stay compatible with the spec for plugins/hooks that we'll need to
  support & the main usecase here is embedding into requirements.toml
  
  ## What changed
  
  - moved the shared hook serde model out of `codex-rs/hooks` into
  `codex-rs/config` so the same schema can power `hooks.json`, inline
  `config.toml` hooks, and managed `requirements.toml` hooks
  - added `hooks` support to both `ConfigToml` and
  `ConfigRequirementsToml`, including requirements-side `managed_dir` /
  `windows_managed_dir`
  - treated requirements-managed hooks as one constrained value via
  `Constrained`, so managed hook policy is merged atomically and cannot
  drift across requirement sources
  - updated hook discovery to load requirements-managed hooks first, then
  per-layer `hooks.json`, then per-layer inline TOML hooks, with a warning
  when a single layer defines both representations
  - threaded managed hook metadata through discovered handlers and exposed
  requirements hooks in app-server responses, generated schemas, and
  `/debug-config`
  - added hook/config coverage in `codex-rs/config`, `codex-rs/hooks`,
  `codex-rs/core/src/config_loader/tests.rs`, and
  `codex-rs/core/tests/suite/hooks.rs`
  
  ## Testing
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-config`
  - `cargo test -p codex-hooks`
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server config_api`
  
  ## Documentation
  
  Companion updates are needed in the developers website repo for:
  
  - the hooks guide
  - the config reference, sample, basic, and advanced pages
  - the enterprise managed configuration guide

• Rename approvals reviewer variant to auto-review (#19056)

  ## Why
  
  `approvals_reviewer` now uses `auto_review` as the canonical config/API
  value after #18504, but the Rust enum variant and nearby helper/test
  names still used `GuardianSubagent` / guardian approval wording. That
  made follow-up code and reviews confusing even though the external value
  had already moved to Auto-review.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Renamed `ApprovalsReviewer::GuardianSubagent` to
  `ApprovalsReviewer::AutoReview`.
  - Updated protocol, app-server, config, core, TUI, exec, and analytics
  test callsites.
  - Renamed nearby helper/test names from guardian approval wording to
  Auto-review wording where they refer to the approvals reviewer mode.
  - Preserved wire compatibility:
    - `auto_review` remains the canonical serialized value.
    - `guardian_subagent` remains accepted as a legacy alias.
  
  This intentionally does not rename the `[features].guardian_approval`
  key, `Feature::GuardianApproval`, `core/src/guardian`, analytics event
  names, or app-server Guardian review event types.
  
  ## Verification

• app-server: accept permission profile overrides (#18279)

  ## Why
  
  `PermissionProfile` is becoming the canonical permissions shape shared
  by core and app-server. After app-server responses expose the active
  profile, clients need to be able to send that same shape back when
  starting, resuming, forking, or overriding a turn instead of translating
  through the legacy `sandbox`/`sandboxPolicy` shorthands.
  
  This still needs to preserve the existing requirements/platform
  enforcement model. A profile-shaped request can be downgraded or
  rejected by constraints, but the server should keep the user's
  elevated-access intent for project trust decisions. Turn-level profile
  overrides also need to retain existing read protections, including
  deny-read entries and bounded glob-scan metadata, so a permission
  override cannot accidentally drop configured protections such as
  `**/*.env = deny`.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Adds optional `permissionProfile` request fields to `thread/start`,
  `thread/resume`, `thread/fork`, and `turn/start`.
  - Rejects ambiguous requests that specify both `permissionProfile` and
  the legacy `sandbox`/`sandboxPolicy` fields, including running-thread
  resume requests.
  - Converts profile-shaped overrides into core runtime filesystem/network
  permissions while continuing to derive the constrained legacy sandbox
  projection used by existing execution paths.
  - Preserves project-trust intent for profile overrides that are
  equivalent to workspace-write or full-access sandbox requests.
  - Preserves existing deny-read entries and `globScanMaxDepth` when
  applying turn-level `permissionProfile` overrides.
  - Updates app-server docs plus generated JSON/TypeScript schema fixtures
  and regression coverage.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol schema_fixtures`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core
  session_configuration_apply_permission_profile_preserves_existing_deny_read_entries`

• Add plumbing to approve stored Auto-Review denials (#18955)

  ## Summary
  
  This adds the structural plumbing needed for an app-server client to
  approve a previously denied Guardian review and carry that approval
  context into the next model turn.
  
  This PR does not add the actual `/auto-review-denials` tool 
  
  ## What Changed
  
  - Added app-server v2 RPC `thread/approveGuardianDeniedAction`.
  - Added generated JSON schema and TypeScript fixtures for
  `ThreadApproveGuardianDeniedAction*`.
  - Added core `Op::ApproveGuardianDeniedAction`.
  - Added a core handler that validates the event is a denied Guardian
  assessment and injects a developer message containing the stored denial
  event JSON.
  - Queues the approval context for the next turn if there is no active
  turn yet.
  - Added the TUI app-server bridge so `Op::ApproveGuardianDeniedAction {
  event }` is routed to the app-server request.
  
  ## What This Does Not Do
  
  - Does not add `/auto-review-denials`.
  - Does not add chat widget recent-denial state.
  - Does not add popup/list UI.
  - Does not add a product-facing denial lookup/store.
  - Does not change where Guardian denials are originally emitted or
  persisted.

• Support multiple cwd filters for thread list (#18502)

  ## Summary
  
  - Teach app-server `thread/list` to accept either a single `cwd` or an
  array of cwd filters, returning threads whose recorded session cwd
  matches any requested path
  - Add `useStateDbOnly` as an explicit opt-in fast path for callers that
  want to answer `thread/list` from SQLite without scanning JSONL rollout
  files
  - Preserve backwards compatibility: by default, `thread/list` still
  scans JSONL rollouts and repairs SQLite state
  - Wire the new cwd array and SQLite-only options through app-server,
  local/remote thread-store, rollout listing, generated TypeScript/schema
  fixtures, proto output, and docs
  
  ## Test Plan
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
  - `cargo test -p codex-rollout`
  - `cargo test -p codex-thread-store`
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server thread_list`

• [codex-analytics] guardian review TTFT plumbing and emission (#17696)

  ## Why
  
  Guardian analytics includes time-to-first-token, but the Guardian
  reviewer runs as a normal Codex session and `TurnCompleteEvent` did not
  expose TTFT. The timing needs to flow through the standard
  turn-completion protocol so Guardian review analytics can consume the
  same value as the rest of the session machinery.
  
  ## What changed
  
  Adds optional `time_to_first_token_ms` to `TurnCompleteEvent` and
  populates it from `TurnTiming`. The value is carried through app-server
  thread history, rollout reconstruction, TUI/app-server adapters, and
  Guardian review session handling.
  
  Guardian review analytics now captures TTFT from the reviewer
  turn-complete event when available. Existing tests and fixtures are
  updated to set the new optional field to `None` where TTFT is not
  relevant.

• app-server: expose thread permission profiles (#18278)

  ## Why
  
  The `PermissionProfile` migration needs app-server clients to see the
  same constrained permission model that core is using at runtime. Before
  this PR, thread lifecycle responses only exposed the legacy
  `SandboxPolicy` shape, so clients still had to infer active permissions
  from sandbox fields. That makes downstream resume, fork, and override
  flows harder to make `PermissionProfile`-first.
  
  External sandbox policies are intentionally excluded from this canonical
  view. External enforcement cannot be round-tripped as a
  `PermissionProfile`, and exposing a lossy root-write profile would let
  clients accidentally change sandbox semantics if they echo the profile
  back later.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Adds the app-server v2 `PermissionProfile` wire shape, including
  filesystem permissions and glob scan depth metadata.
  - Adds `PermissionProfileNetworkPermissions` so the profile response
  does not expose active network state through the older
  additional-permissions naming.
  - Returns `permissionProfile` from thread start, resume, and fork
  responses when the active sandbox can be represented as a
  `PermissionProfile`.
  - Keeps legacy `sandbox` in those responses for compatibility and
  documents `permissionProfile` as canonical when present.
  - Makes lifecycle `permissionProfile` nullable and returns `null` for
  `ExternalSandbox` to avoid exposing a lossy profile.
  - Regenerates the app-server JSON schema and TypeScript fixtures.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server

• feat: add explicit AgentIdentity auth mode (#18785)

  ## Summary
  
  This PR adds `CodexAuth::AgentIdentity` as an explicit auth mode.
  
  An AgentIdentity auth record is a standalone `auth.json` mode. When
  `AuthManager::auth().await` loads that mode, it registers one
  process-scoped task and stores it in runtime-only state on the auth
  value. Header creation stays synchronous after that because the task is
  initialized before callers receive the auth object.
  
  This PR also removes the old feature flag path. AgentIdentity is
  selected by explicit auth mode, not by a hidden flag or lazy mutation of
  ChatGPT auth records.
  
  Reference old stack: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/17387/changes
  
  ## Design Decisions
  
  - AgentIdentity is a real auth enum variant because it can be the only
  credential in `auth.json`.
  - The process task is ephemeral runtime state. It is not serialized and
  is not stored in rollout/session data.
  - Account/user metadata needed by existing Codex backend checks lives on
  the AgentIdentity record for now.
  - `is_chatgpt_auth()` remains token-specific.
  - `uses_codex_backend()` is the broader predicate for ChatGPT-token auth
  and AgentIdentity auth.

• core: derive active permission profiles (#18277)

  ## Why
  
  `Permissions` should not store a separate `PermissionProfile` that can
  drift from the constrained `SandboxPolicy` and network settings. The
  active profile needs to be derived from the same constrained values that
  already honor `requirements.toml`.
  
  ## What changed
  
  This adds derivation of the active `PermissionProfile` from the
  constrained runtime permission settings and exposes that derived value
  through config snapshots and thread state. The app-server can then
  report the active profile without introducing a second source of truth.

• 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.

  feature map, cloud requirements loader) behind internal manager fields.
  - Pass `ConfigManager` into `MessageProcessor` directly instead of
  reconstructing it from raw args.

• app-server: fix Bazel clippy in tracing tests (#18872)

  ## Why
  
  PR #18431 exposed a Bazel clippy failure in the app-server unit-test
  target across Linux, macOS, and Windows. The failing lint was
  `clippy::await_holding_invalid_type`: two tracing tests serialized
  access to global tracing state by holding a `tokio::sync::MutexGuard`
  across awaited test work.
  
  That serialization is still needed because the tests share
  process-global tracing setup and exporter state, but it should not
  require holding an async mutex guard through the whole test body.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Replaced the bespoke async `tracing_test_guard` helper with
  `serial_test` on the two tracing tests that need global tracing
  serialization.
  - Removed the `#[expect(clippy::await_holding_invalid_type)]`
  annotations and the lock guard callsites that Bazel clippy rejected.
  
  ## Validation
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server jsonrpc_span`
  - `just fix -p codex-app-server`
  - `git diff --check`
  
  I also attempted the exact failing Bazel clippy target locally with
  BuildBuddy disabled: `bazel --noexperimental_remote_repo_contents_cache
  build --config=clippy --bes_backend= --remote_cache=
  --experimental_remote_downloader= --
  //codex-rs/app-server:app-server-unit-tests-bin`. That run did not reach
  clippy because Bazel timed out downloading `libcap-2.27.tar.gz` from
  `kernel.org`.

• sandboxing: intersect permission profiles semantically (#18275)

  ## Why
  
  Permission approval responses must not be able to grant more access than
  the tool requested. Moving this flow to `PermissionProfile` means the
  comparison must be profile-shaped instead of `SandboxPolicy`-shaped, and
  cwd-relative special paths such as `:cwd` and `:project_roots` must stay
  anchored to the turn that produced the request.
  
  ## What changed
  
  This implements semantic `PermissionProfile` intersection in
  `codex-sandboxing` for file-system and network permissions. The
  intersection accepts narrower path grants, rejects broader grants,
  preserves deny-read carve-outs and glob scan depth, and materializes
  cwd-dependent special-path grants to absolute paths before they can be
  recorded for reuse.
  
  The request-permissions response paths now use that intersection
  consistently. App-server captures the request turn cwd before waiting
  for the client response, includes that cwd in the v2 approval params,
  and core stores the requested profile plus cwd for direct TUI/client
  responses and Guardian decisions before recording turn- or
  session-scoped grants. The TUI app-server bridge now preserves the
  app-server request cwd when converting permission approval params into
  core events.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-sandboxing intersect_permission_profiles --
  --nocapture`
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server request_permissions_response --

  - `cargo test -p codex-core

• Propagate thread id in MCP tool metadata (#18093)

  ## Summary
  - attach the authoritative Codex thread id to MCP tool request
  `_meta.threadId` for model-initiated tool calls
  - attach the same thread id for manual `mcpServer/tool/call` requests
  before invoking the MCP server
  - cover both metadata helper behavior and the manual app-server MCP path
  in tests
  
  
  needed because the Rust app-server is the last place that still has
  authoritative knowledge of “this model-generated MCP tool call belongs
  to conversation/thread X” before the request leaves Codex and reaches
  Hoopa. It adds threadId to MCP request metadata in the model-generated
  tool-call path, using sess.conversation_id, and also does the same for
  the manual mcpServer/tool/call path.
  
  ## Test plan
  - `cargo test -p codex-core
  mcp_tool_call_thread_id_meta_is_added_to_request_meta --lib`
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server
  mcp_server_tool_call_returns_tool_result`

• app-server: define device key v2 protocol (#18428)

  ## Why
  
  Clients need a stable app-server protocol surface for enrolling a local
  device key, retrieving its public key, and producing a device-bound
  proof.
  
  The protocol reports `protectionClass` explicitly so clients can
  distinguish hardware-backed keys from an explicitly allowed OS-protected
  fallback. Signing uses a tagged `DeviceKeySignPayload` enum rather than
  arbitrary bytes so each signed statement is auditable at the API
  boundary.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Added v2 JSON-RPC methods for `device/key/create`,
  `device/key/public`, and `device/key/sign`.
  - Added request/response types for device-key metadata, SPKI public
  keys, protection classes, and ECDSA signatures.
  - Added `DeviceKeyProtectionPolicy` with hardware-only default behavior
  and an explicit `allow_os_protected_nonextractable` option.
  - Added the initial `remoteControlClientConnection` signing payload
  variant.
  - Regenerated JSON Schema and TypeScript fixtures for app-server
  clients.
  
  ## Stack
  
  This is PR 1 of 4 in the device-key app-server stack.
  
  ## Validation
  
  - `just write-app-server-schema`
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`

  API adapter imports.
  - Remove stale core re-exports and expose only the needed marketplace
  source helper.
  
  ## Testing
  - `cargo test -p codex-app-server config::external_agent_config`
  - `just fmt`
  - `just fix -p codex-app-server`
  - `just fix -p codex-core`
  - `git diff --check`

• [tool search] support namespaced deferred dynamic tools (#18413)

  Deferred dynamic tools need to round-trip a namespace so a tool returned
  by `tool_search` can be called through the same registry key that core
  uses for dispatch.
  
  This change adds namespace support for dynamic tool specs/calls,
  persists it through app-server thread state, and routes dynamic tool
  calls by full `ToolName` while still sending the app the leaf tool name.
  Deferred dynamic tools must provide a namespace; non-deferred dynamic
  tools may remain top-level.
  
  It also introduces `LoadableToolSpec` as the shared
  function-or-namespace Responses shape used by both `tool_search` output
  and dynamic tool registration, so dynamic tools use the same wrapping
  logic in both paths.
  
  Validation:
  - `cargo test -p codex-tools`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core tool_search`

• chore: document intentional await-holding cases (#18423)

  ## Why
  
  This PR prepares the stack to enable Clippy await-holding lints that
  were left disabled in #18178. The mechanical lock-scope cleanup is
  handled separately; this PR is the documentation/configuration layer for
  the remaining await-across-guard sites.
  
  Without explicit annotations, reviewers and future maintainers cannot
  tell whether an await-holding warning is a real concurrency smell or an
  intentional serialization boundary.
  
  ## What changed
  
  - Configures `clippy.toml` so `await_holding_invalid_type` also covers
  `tokio::sync::{MutexGuard,RwLockReadGuard,RwLockWriteGuard}`.
  - Adds targeted `#[expect(clippy::await_holding_invalid_type, reason =
  ...)]` annotations for intentional async guard lifetimes.
  - Documents the main categories of intentional cases: active-turn state
  transitions that must remain atomic, session-owned MCP manager accesses,
  remote-control websocket serialization, JS REPL kernel/process
  serialization, OAuth persistence, external bearer token refresh
  serialization, and tests that intentionally serialize shared global or
  session-owned state.
  - For external bearer token refresh, documents the existing
  serialization boundary: holding `cached_token` across the provider
  command prevents concurrent cache misses from starting duplicate refresh
  commands, and the current behavior is small enough that an explicit
  expectation is easier to maintain than adding another synchronization
  primitive.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo clippy -p codex-login --all-targets`
  - `cargo clippy -p codex-connectors --all-targets`
  - `cargo clippy -p codex-core --all-targets`
  - The follow-up PR #18698 enables `await_holding_invalid_type` and
  `await_holding_lock` as workspace `deny` lints, so any undocumented
  remaining offender will fail Clippy.

• Add remote_sandbox_config to our config requirements (#18763)

  ## Why
  
  Customers need finer-grained control over allowed sandbox modes based on
  the host Codex is running on. For example, they may want stricter
  sandbox limits on devboxes while keeping a different default elsewhere.
  
  Our current cloud requirements can target user/account groups, but they
  cannot vary sandbox requirements by host. That makes remote development
  environments awkward because the same top-level `allowed_sandbox_modes`
  has to apply everywhere.
  
  ## What
  
  Adds a new `remote_sandbox_config` section to `requirements.toml`:
  
  ```toml
  allowed_sandbox_modes = ["read-only"]
  
  [[remote_sandbox_config]]
  hostname_patterns = ["*.org"]
  allowed_sandbox_modes = ["read-only", "workspace-write"]
  
  [[remote_sandbox_config]]
  hostname_patterns = ["*.sh", "runner-*.ci"]
  allowed_sandbox_modes = ["read-only", "danger-full-access"]
  ```
  
  During requirements resolution, Codex resolves the local host name once,
  preferring the machine FQDN when available and falling back to the
  cleaned kernel hostname. This host classification is best effort rather
  than authenticated device proof.
  
  Each requirements source applies its first matching
  `remote_sandbox_config` entry before it is merged with other sources.
  The shared merge helper keeps that `apply_remote_sandbox_config` step
  paired with requirements merging so new requirements sources do not have
  to remember the extra call.
  
  That preserves source precedence: a lower-precedence requirements file
  with a matching `remote_sandbox_config` cannot override a
  higher-precedence source that already set `allowed_sandbox_modes`.
  
  This also wires the hostname-aware resolution through app-server,
  CLI/TUI config loading, config API reads, and config layer metadata so
  they all evaluate remote sandbox requirements consistently.
  
  ## Verification
  
  - `cargo test -p codex-config remote_sandbox_config`
  - `cargo test -p codex-config host_name`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core
  load_config_layers_applies_matching_remote_sandbox_config`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core
  system_remote_sandbox_config_keeps_cloud_sandbox_modes`
  - `cargo test -p codex-config`
  - `cargo test -p codex-core` unit tests passed; `tests/all.rs`
  integration matrix was intentionally stopped after the relevant focused
  tests passed
  - `just fix -p codex-config`
  - `just fix -p codex-core`
  - `cargo check -p codex-app-server`
