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

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

• fix(app-server): fix approval events in review mode (#10416)

  One of our partners flagged that they were seeing the wrong order of
  events when running `review/start` with command exec approvals:
  ```
  {"method":"item/commandExecution/requestApproval","id":0,"params":{"threadId":"019c0b6b-6a42-7c02-99c4-98c80e88ac27","turnId":"0","itemId":"0","reason":"`/bin/zsh -lc 'git show b7a92b4eacf262c575f26b1e1ed621a357642e55 --stat'` requires approval: Xcode-required approval: Require explicit user confirmation for all commands.","proposedExecpolicyAmendment":null}}
  
  {"method":"item/started","params":{"item":{"type":"commandExecution","id":"call_AEjlbHqLYNM7kbU3N6uw1CNi","command":"/bin/zsh -lc 'git show b7a92b4eacf262c575f26b1e1ed621a357642e55 --stat'","cwd":"/Users/devingreen/Desktop/SampleProject","processId":null,"status":"inProgress","commandActions":[{"type":"unknown","command":"git show b7a92b4eacf262c575f26b1e1ed621a357642e55 --stat"}],"aggregatedOutput":null,"exitCode":null,"durationMs":null},"threadId":"019c0b6b-6a42-7c02-99c4-98c80e88ac27","turnId":"0"}}
  ```
  
  **Key fix**: In the review sub‑agent delegate we were forwarding exec
  (and patch) approvals using the parent turn id (`parent_ctx.sub_id`) as
  the approval call_id. That made
  `item/commandExecution/requestApproval.itemId` differ from the actual
  `item/started` id. We now forward the sub‑agent’s `call_id` from the
  approval event instead, so the approval item id matches the
  commandExecution item id in review flows.
  
  Here’s the expected event order for an inline `review/start` that
  triggers an exec approval after this fix:
  1. Response to review/start (JSON‑RPC response)
  - Includes `turn` (status inProgress) and `review_thread_id` (same as
  parent thread for inline).
  2. `turn/started` notification
    - turnId is the review turn id (e.g., "0").
  3. `item/started` → EnteredReviewMode
    - item.id == turnId, marks entry into review mode.
  4. `item/started` → commandExecution
    - item.id == <call_id> (e.g., "review-call-1"), status: inProgress.
  5. `item/commandExecution/requestApproval` request
    - JSON‑RPC request (not a notification).
    - params.itemId == <call_id> and params.turnId == turnId.
  6. Client replies to approval request (Approved / Declined / etc).
  7. If approved:
    - Optional `item/commandExecution/outputDelta` notifications.
    - `item/completed` → commandExecution with status and exitCode.
  8. Review finishes:
    - `item/started` → ExitedReviewMode
    - `item/completed` → ExitedReviewMode
    - (Agent message items may also appear, depending on review output.)
  9. `turn/completed` notification
  
  The key being #4 and #5 are now in the proper order with the correct
  item id.

• Cleanup collaboration mode variants (#10404)

  ## Summary
  
  This PR simplifies collaboration modes to the visible set `default |
  plan`, while preserving backward compatibility for older partners that
  may still send legacy mode
  names.
  
  Specifically:
  - Renames the old Code behavior to **Default**.
  - Keeps **Plan** as-is.
  - Removes **Custom** mode behavior (fallbacks now resolve to Default).
  - Keeps `PairProgramming` and `Execute` internally for compatibility
  plumbing, while removing them from schema/API and UI visibility.
  - Adds legacy input aliasing so older clients can still send old mode
  names.
  
  ## What Changed
  
  1. Mode enum and compatibility
  - `ModeKind` now uses `Plan` + `Default` as active/public modes.
  - `ModeKind::Default` deserialization accepts legacy values:
    - `code`
    - `pair_programming`
    - `execute`
    - `custom`
  - `PairProgramming` and `Execute` variants remain in code but are hidden
  from protocol/schema generation.
  - `Custom` variant is removed; previous custom fallbacks now map to
  `Default`.
  
  2. Collaboration presets and templates
  - Built-in presets now return only:
    - `Plan`
    - `Default`
  - Template rename:
    - `core/templates/collaboration_mode/code.md` -> `default.md`
  - `execute.md` and `pair_programming.md` remain on disk but are not
  surfaced in visible preset lists.
  
  3. TUI updates
  - Updated user-facing naming and prompts from “Code” to “Default”.
  - Updated mode-cycle and indicator behavior to reflect only visible
  `Plan` and `Default`.
  - Updated corresponding tests and snapshots.
  
  4. request_user_input behavior
  - `request_user_input` remains allowed only in `Plan` mode.
  - Rejection messaging now consistently treats non-plan modes as
  `Default`.
  
  5. Schemas
  - Regenerated config and app-server schemas.
  - Public schema types now advertise mode values as:
    - `plan`
    - `default`
  
  ## Backward Compatibility Notes
  
  - Incoming legacy mode names (`code`, `pair_programming`, `execute`,
  `custom`) are accepted and coerced to `default`.
  - Outgoing/public schema surfaces intentionally expose only `plan |
  default`.
  - This allows tolerant ingestion of older partner payloads while
  standardizing new integrations on the reduced mode set.

• [Codex][CLI] Gate image inputs by model modalities (#10271)

  ###### Summary
  
  - Add input_modalities to model metadata so clients can determine
  supported input types.
  - Gate image paste/attach in TUI when the selected model does not
  support images.
  - Block submits that include images for unsupported models and show a
  clear warning.
  - Propagate modality metadata through app-server protocol/model-list
  responses.
    - Update related tests/fixtures.
  
    ###### Rationale
  
    - Models support different input modalities.
  - Clients need an explicit capability signal to prevent unsupported
  requests.
  - Backward-compatible defaults preserve existing behavior when modality
  metadata is absent.
  
    ###### Scope
  
    - codex-rs/protocol, codex-rs/core, codex-rs/tui
    - codex-rs/app-server-protocol, codex-rs/app-server
    - Generated app-server types / schema fixtures
  
    ###### Trade-offs
  
  - Default behavior assumes text + image when field is absent for
  compatibility.
    - Server-side validation remains the source of truth.
  
    ###### Follow-up
  
  - Non-TUI clients should consume input_modalities to disable unsupported
  attachments.
  - Model catalogs should explicitly set input_modalities for text-only
  models.
  
    ###### Testing
  
    - cargo fmt --all
    - cargo test -p codex-tui
    - env -u GITHUB_APP_KEY cargo test -p codex-core --lib
    - just write-app-server-schema
  - cargo run -p codex-cli --bin codex -- app-server generate-ts --out
  app-server-types
    - test against local backend

• feat: replace custom mcp-types crate with equivalents from rmcp (#10349)

  We started working with MCP in Codex before
  https://crates.io/crates/rmcp was mature, so we had our own crate for
  MCP types that was generated from the MCP schema:
  
  
  https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/8b95d3e082376f4cb23e92641705a22afb28a9da/codex-rs/mcp-types/README.md
  
  Now that `rmcp` is more mature, it makes more sense to use their MCP
  types in Rust, as they handle details (like the `_meta` field) that our
  custom version ignored. Though one advantage that our custom types had
  is that our generated types implemented `JsonSchema` and `ts_rs::TS`,
  whereas the types in `rmcp` do not. As such, part of the work of this PR
  is leveraging the adapters between `rmcp` types and the serializable
  types that are API for us (app server and MCP) introduced in #10356.
  
  Note this PR results in a number of changes to
  `codex-rs/app-server-protocol/schema`, which merit special attention
  during review. We must ensure that these changes are still
  backwards-compatible, which is possible because we have:
  
  ```diff
  - export type CallToolResult = { content: Array<ContentBlock>, isError?: boolean, structuredContent?: JsonValue, };
  + export type CallToolResult = { content: Array<JsonValue>, structuredContent?: JsonValue, isError?: boolean, _meta?: JsonValue, };
  ```
  
  so `ContentBlock` has been replaced with the more general `JsonValue`.
  Note that `ContentBlock` was defined as:
  
  ```typescript
  export type ContentBlock = TextContent | ImageContent | AudioContent | ResourceLink | EmbeddedResource;
  ```
  
  so the deletion of those individual variants should not be a cause of
  great concern.
  
  Similarly, we have the following change in
  `codex-rs/app-server-protocol/schema/typescript/Tool.ts`:
  
  ```
  - export type Tool = { annotations?: ToolAnnotations, description?: string, inputSchema: ToolInputSchema, name: string, outputSchema?: ToolOutputSchema, title?: string, };
  + export type Tool = { name: string, title?: string, description?: string, inputSchema: JsonValue, outputSchema?: JsonValue, annotations?: JsonValue, icons?: Array<JsonValue>, _meta?: JsonValue, };
  ```
  
  so:
  
  - `annotations?: ToolAnnotations` ➡️ `JsonValue`
  - `inputSchema: ToolInputSchema` ➡️ `JsonValue`
  - `outputSchema?: ToolOutputSchema` ➡️ `JsonValue`
  
  and two new fields: `icons?: Array<JsonValue>, _meta?: JsonValue`

• feat: experimental flags (#10231)

  ## Problem being solved
  - We need a single, reliable way to mark app-server API surface as
  experimental so that:
    1. the runtime can reject experimental usage unless the client opts in
  2. generated TS/JSON schemas can exclude experimental methods/fields for
  stable clients.
  
  Right now that’s easy to drift or miss when done ad-hoc.
  
  ## How to declare experimental methods and fields
  - **Experimental method**: add `#[experimental("method/name")]` to the
  `ClientRequest` variant in `client_request_definitions!`.
  - **Experimental field**: on the params struct, derive `ExperimentalApi`
  and annotate the field with `#[experimental("method/name.field")]` + set
  `inspect_params: true` for the method variant so
  `ClientRequest::experimental_reason()` inspects params for experimental
  fields.
  
  ## How the macro solves it
  - The new derive macro lives in
  `codex-rs/codex-experimental-api-macros/src/lib.rs` and is used via
  `#[derive(ExperimentalApi)]` plus `#[experimental("reason")]`
  attributes.
  - **Structs**:
  - Generates `ExperimentalApi::experimental_reason(&self)` that checks
  only annotated fields.
    - The “presence” check is type-aware:
      - `Option<T>`: `is_some_and(...)` recursively checks inner.
      - `Vec`/`HashMap`/`BTreeMap`: must be non-empty.
      - `bool`: must be `true`.
      - Other types: considered present (returns `true`).
  - Registers each experimental field in an `inventory` with `(type_name,
  serialized field name, reason)` and exposes `EXPERIMENTAL_FIELDS` for
  that type. Field names are converted from `snake_case` to `camelCase`
  for schema/TS filtering.
  - **Enums**:
  - Generates an exhaustive `match` returning `Some(reason)` for annotated
  variants and `None` otherwise (no wildcard arm).
  - **Wiring**:
  - Runtime gating uses `ExperimentalApi::experimental_reason()` in
  `codex-rs/app-server/src/message_processor.rs` to reject requests unless
  `InitializeParams.capabilities.experimental_api == true`.
  - Schema/TS export filters use the inventory list and
  `EXPERIMENTAL_CLIENT_METHODS` from `client_request_definitions!` to
  strip experimental methods/fields when `experimental_api` is false.

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

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

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

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

• Plan mode: stream proposed plans, emit plan items, and render in TUI (#9786)

  ## Summary
  - Stream proposed plans in Plan Mode using `<proposed_plan>` tags parsed
  in core, emitting plan deltas plus a plan `ThreadItem`, while stripping
  tags from normal assistant output.
  - Persist plan items and rebuild them on resume so proposed plans show
  in thread history.
  - Wire plan items/deltas through app-server protocol v2 and render a
  dedicated proposed-plan view in the TUI, including the “Implement this
  plan?” prompt only when a plan item is present.
  
  ## Changes
  
  ### Core (`codex-rs/core`)
  - Added a generic, line-based tag parser that buffers each line until it
  can disprove a tag prefix; implements auto-close on `finish()` for
  unterminated tags. `codex-rs/core/src/tagged_block_parser.rs`
  - Refactored proposed plan parsing to wrap the generic parser.
  `codex-rs/core/src/proposed_plan_parser.rs`
  - In plan mode, stream assistant deltas as:
    - **Normal text** → `AgentMessageContentDelta`
    - **Plan text** → `PlanDelta` + `TurnItem::Plan` start/completion  
    (`codex-rs/core/src/codex.rs`)
  - Final plan item content is derived from the completed assistant
  message (authoritative), not necessarily the concatenated deltas.
  - Strips `<proposed_plan>` blocks from assistant text in plan mode so
  tags don’t appear in normal messages.
  (`codex-rs/core/src/stream_events_utils.rs`)
  - Persist `ItemCompleted` events only for plan items for rollout replay.
  (`codex-rs/core/src/rollout/policy.rs`)
  - Guard `update_plan` tool in Plan Mode with a clear error message.
  (`codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers/plan.rs`)
  - Updated Plan Mode prompt to:  
    - keep `<proposed_plan>` out of non-final reasoning/preambles  
    - require exact tag formatting  
    - allow only one `<proposed_plan>` block per turn  
    (`codex-rs/core/templates/collaboration_mode/plan.md`)
  
  ### Protocol / App-server protocol
  - Added `TurnItem::Plan` and `PlanDeltaEvent` to core protocol items.
  (`codex-rs/protocol/src/items.rs`, `codex-rs/protocol/src/protocol.rs`)
  - Added v2 `ThreadItem::Plan` and `PlanDeltaNotification` with
  EXPERIMENTAL markers and note that deltas may not match the final plan
  item. (`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2.rs`)
  - Added plan delta route in app-server protocol common mapping.
  (`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/common.rs`)
  - Rebuild plan items from persisted `ItemCompleted` events on resume.
  (`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/thread_history.rs`)
  
  ### App-server
  - Forward plan deltas to v2 clients and map core plan items to v2 plan
  items. (`codex-rs/app-server/src/bespoke_event_handling.rs`,
  `codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs`)
  - Added v2 plan item tests.
  (`codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/plan_item.rs`)
  
  ### TUI
  - Added a dedicated proposed plan history cell with special background
  and padding, and moved “• Proposed Plan” outside the highlighted block.
  (`codex-rs/tui/src/history_cell.rs`, `codex-rs/tui/src/style.rs`)
  - Only show “Implement this plan?” when a plan item exists.
  (`codex-rs/tui/src/chatwidget.rs`,
  `codex-rs/tui/src/chatwidget/tests.rs`)

  src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/69794c8c-f96b-4d36-92ef-c1f5c3a8f286"
  />
  
  ### Docs / Misc
  - Updated protocol docs to mention plan deltas.
  (`codex-rs/docs/protocol_v1.md`)
  - Minor plumbing updates in exec/debug clients to tolerate plan deltas.
  (`codex-rs/debug-client/src/reader.rs`, `codex-rs/exec/...`)
  
  ## Tests
  - Added core integration tests:
    - Plan mode strips plan from agent messages.
    - Missing `</proposed_plan>` closes at end-of-message.  
    (`codex-rs/core/tests/suite/items.rs`)
  - Added unit tests for generic tag parser (prefix buffering, non-tag
  lines, auto-close). (`codex-rs/core/src/tagged_block_parser.rs`)
  - Existing app-server plan item tests in v2.
  (`codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/plan_item.rs`)
  
  ## Notes / Behavior
  - Plan output no longer appears in standard assistant text in Plan Mode;
  it streams via `PlanDelta` and completes as a `TurnItem::Plan`.
  - The final plan item content is authoritative and may diverge from
  streamed deltas (documented as experimental).
  - Reasoning summaries are not filtered; prompt instructs the model not
  to include `<proposed_plan>` outside the final plan message.

  `requirements.toml` should be able to specify rules which always run. 
  
  My intention here was that these rules could only ever be restrictive,
  which means the decision can be "prompt" or "forbidden" but never
  "allow". A requirement of "you must always allow this command" didn't
  make sense to me, but happy to be gaveled otherwise.
  
  Rules already applies the most restrictive decision, so we can safely
  merge these with rules found in other config folders.

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

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

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

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

• fix(app-server, core): defer initial context write to rollout file until first turn (#9950)

  ### Overview
  Currently calling `thread/resume` will always bump the thread's
  `updated_at` timestamp. This PR makes it the `updated_at` timestamp
  changes only if a turn is triggered.
  
  ### Additonal context
  What we typically do on resuming a thread is **always** writing “initial
  context” to the rollout file immediately. This initial context includes:
  - Developer instructions derived from sandbox/approval policy + cwd
  - Optional developer instructions (if provided)
  - Optional collaboration-mode instructions
  - Optional user instructions (if provided)
  - Environment context (cwd, shell, etc.)
  
  This PR defers writing the “initial context” to the rollout file until
  the first `turn/start`, so we don't inadvertently bump the thread's
  `updated_at` timestamp until a turn is actually triggered.
  
  This works even though both `thread/resume` and `turn/start` accept
  overrides (such as `model`, `cwd`, etc.) because the initial context is
  seeded from the effective `TurnContext` in memory, computed at
  `turn/start` time, after both sets of overrides have been applied.
  
  **NOTE**: This is a very short-lived solution until we introduce sqlite.
  Then we can remove this.

• Add MCP server scopes config and use it as fallback for OAuth login (#9647)

  ### Motivation
  - Allow MCP OAuth flows to request scopes defined in `config.toml`
  instead of requiring users to always pass `--scopes` on the CLI.
  CLI/remote parameters should still override config values.
  
  ### Description
  - Add optional `scopes: Option<Vec<String>>` to `McpServerConfig` and
  `RawMcpServerConfig`, and propagate it through deserialization and the
  built config types.
  - Serialize `scopes` into the MCP server TOML via
  `serialize_mcp_server_table` in `core/src/config/edit.rs` and include
  `scopes` in the generated config schema (`core/config.schema.json`).
  - CLI: update `codex-rs/cli/src/mcp_cmd.rs` `run_login` to fall back to
  `server.scopes` when the `--scopes` flag is empty, with explicit CLI
  scopes still taking precedence.
  - App server: update
  `codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs`
  `mcp_server_oauth_login` to use `params.scopes.or_else(||
  server.scopes.clone())` so the RPC path also respects configured scopes.
  - Update many test fixtures to initialize the new `scopes` field (set to
  `None`) so test code builds with the new struct field.
  
  ### Testing
  - Ran config tooling and formatters: `just write-config-schema`
  (succeeded), `just fmt` (succeeded), and `just fix -p codex-core`, `just
  fix -p codex-cli`, `just fix -p codex-app-server` (succeeded where
  applicable).
  - Ran unit tests for the CLI: `cargo test -p codex-cli` (passed).
  - Ran unit tests for core: `cargo test -p codex-core` (ran; many tests
  passed but several failed, including model refresh/403-related tests,
  shell snapshot/timeouts, and several `unified_exec` expectations).
  - Ran app-server tests: `cargo test -p codex-app-server` (ran; many
  integration-suite tests failed due to mocked/remote HTTP 401/403
  responses and wiremock expectations).
  
  If you want, I can split the tests into smaller focused runs or help
  debug the failing integration tests (they appear to be unrelated to the
  config change and stem from external HTTP/mocking behaviors encountered
  during the test runs).

• Add thread/unarchive to restore archived rollouts (#9843)

  ## Summary
  - Adds a new `thread/unarchive` RPC to move archived thread rollouts
  back into the active `sessions/` tree.
  
  ## What changed
  - **Protocol**
    - Adds `thread/unarchive` request/response types and wiring.
  - **Server**
    - Implements `thread_unarchive` in the app server.
    - Validates the archived rollout path and thread ID.
  - Restores the rollout to `sessions/YYYY/MM/DD/...` based on the rollout
  filename timestamp.
  - **Core**
  - Adds `find_archived_thread_path_by_id_str` helper for archived
  rollouts.
  - **Docs**
    - Documents the new RPC and usage example.
  - **Tests**
    - Adds an end-to-end server test that:
      1) starts a thread,
      2) archives it,
      3) unarchives it,
      4) asserts the file is restored to `sessions/`.
  
  ## How to use
  ```json
  { "method": "thread/unarchive", "id": 24, "params": { "threadId": "<thread-id>" } }
  ```

• Fix flakey conversation flow test (#9784)

  I've seen this test fail with:
  
  ```
   - Mock #1.
          	Expected range of matching incoming requests: == 2
          	Number of matched incoming requests: 1
  ```
  
  This is because we pop the wrong task_complete events and then the test
  exits. I think this is because the MCP events are now buffered after
  https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/8874.
  
  So:
  1. clear the buffer before we do any user message sending
  2. additionally listen for task start before task complete
  3. use the ID from task start to find the correct task complete event.

• feat: dynamic tools injection (#9539)

  ## Summary
  Add dynamic tool injection to thread startup in API v2, wire dynamic
  tool calls through the app server to clients, and plumb responses back
  into the model tool pipeline.
  
  ### Flow (high level)
  - Thread start injects `dynamic_tools` into the model tool list for that
  thread (validation is done here).
  - When the model emits a tool call for one of those names, core raises a
  `DynamicToolCallRequest` event.
  - The app server forwards it to the client as `item/tool/call`, waits
  for the client’s response, then submits a `DynamicToolResponse` back to
  core.
  - Core turns that into a `function_call_output` in the next model
  request so the model can continue.
  
  ### What changed
  - Added dynamic tool specs to v2 thread start params and protocol types;
  introduced `item/tool/call` (request/response) for dynamic tool
  execution.
  - Core now registers dynamic tool specs at request time and routes those
  calls via a new dynamic tool handler.
  - App server validates tool names/schemas, forwards dynamic tool call
  requests to clients, and publishes tool outputs back into the session.
  - Integration tests
