## Why
The precursor PR keeps successful client responses typed until
app-server's outgoing response seam. This follow-up uses that seam to
move successful client-response analytics out of individual handlers and
into the shared sender path, while keeping filtering decisions inside
`codex-analytics`.
## What changed
- Emit successful client-response analytics centrally from
`OutgoingMessageSender::send_response`.
- Remove duplicate handler-local response tracking for the current
thread/turn lifecycle responses.
- Keep analytics ingestion selective inside `AnalyticsEventsClient`, so
unrelated client traffic is ignored before cloning or boxing.
- Collapse client-response analytics facts onto one typed path and
normalize payloads in the reducer.
- Add direct client-filter coverage plus sender-level coverage for the
centralized forwarding path.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-analytics`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server outgoing_message::tests --lib`
## Why
`pr17088` adds typed server-originated request/response plumbing, but
successful client responses are still erased into bare JSON-RPC `result`
values before app-server can make any typed decision about them.
This precursor PR keeps successful client responses typed until the
outgoing response seam. It is intentionally limited to
protocol/app-server plumbing so the analytics behavior change can review
separately on top.
## What changed
- Add `ClientResponsePayload` as the pre-serialization client response
body type.
- Route app-server successful response paths through the typed payload
seam while preserving existing handler-local analytics behavior.
- Keep `InterruptConversation` JSON-RPC-only because it has no
`ClientResponse` variant.
- Move the new payload conversion tests into a dedicated protocol test
module.
## Verification
- `cargo check -p codex-app-server`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
## Why
Codex analytics needs a typed seam for app-server-originated
request/response traffic so future tool-approval analytics can consume
those facts without adding bespoke callsite tracking each time. Server
responses arrive as JSON-RPC `id + result` payloads, so analytics has to
reconstruct the matching typed response from the original typed request
while that request context still exists in app-server.
This also puts analytics on the app-server outbound path, which needs to
avoid keeping the runtime alive during shutdown. The final ownership fix
keeps the normal strong auth-manager retention in analytics and makes
the external-auth refresh bridge hold a weak back-reference to
`OutgoingMessageSender`, breaking the runtime cycle at the bridge
boundary instead of exposing retention policy through the analytics
client API.
## What changed
- Adds typed `ServerRequest` and `ServerResponse` analytics facts, plus
`AnalyticsEventsClient::track_server_request` and
`track_server_response`.
- Renames the existing client-side facts to `ClientRequest` and
`ClientResponse` so reducers can distinguish client-to-server traffic
from server-to-client traffic.
- Adds `ServerRequest::response_from_result`, allowing a stored typed
request to decode the matching typed server response from a raw JSON-RPC
result payload.
- Threads `AnalyticsEventsClient` through `OutgoingMessageSender` and
records targeted server requests, replayed targeted requests, and
matching targeted responses with the responding connection id needed for
correlation.
- Intentionally leaves broadcast server requests/responses out of
analytics for now because the current model is per connection, while
broadcasts fan one logical request out across multiple connections.
- Breaks the app-server shutdown cycle by storing
`Weak<OutgoingMessageSender>` in `ExternalAuthRefreshBridge` and
upgrading it only when an external-auth refresh is actually requested.
- Keeps reducer ingestion of the new server-side facts as no-ops for
now; this PR is plumbing for later tool-approval analytics work.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-analytics`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server outgoing_message::tests::`
- Covers typed-response reconstruction plus the targeted, replayed,
broadcast-exclusion, and response-attribution analytics paths.
## Follow-up
This PR intentionally stops at ingestion plumbing, so `ServerRequest`
and `ServerResponse` facts are still reducer no-ops. Once a follow-up PR
adds real downstream analytics output for those facts:
- replace the temporary pre-reducer observation seam with reducer tests
for the emitted event shape;
- add end-to-end coverage in `app-server/tests/suite/v2/analytics.rs`
for the real app-server workflow and captured analytics payload;
- remove the temporary sender-level observer tests added here in favor
of the real-output coverage above.

## Why
Plugins can bundle lifecycle hooks, but Codex previously only discovered
hooks from user, project, and managed config layers. This adds the
plugin discovery and runtime plumbing needed for plugin-bundled hooks
while keeping execution behind the `plugin_hooks` feature flag.
## What
- Discovers plugin hook sources from each plugin's default
`hooks/hooks.json`.
- Supports `plugin.json` manifest `hooks` entries as either relative
paths or inline hook objects.
- Plumbs discovered plugin hook sources through plugin loading into the
hook runtime when `plugin_hooks` is enabled.
- Marks plugin-originated hook runs as `HookSource::Plugin`.
- Injects `PLUGIN_ROOT` and `CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT` into plugin hook
command environments.
- Updates generated schemas and hook source metadata for the plugin hook
source.

2. openai/codex#19778
3. openai/codex#19840
4. openai/codex#19882
## Reviewer Notes
- Core logic is in `codex-rs/core-plugins/src/loader.rs` and
`codex-rs/hooks/src/engine/discovery.rs`
- Moved existing / adding new tests to
`codex-rs/core-plugins/src/loader_tests.rs` hence the large diff there
- Otherwise mostly plumbing and minor schema updates
### Core Changes
The `codex-rs/core` changes are limited to wiring plugin hook support
into existing core flows:
- `core/src/session/session.rs` conditionally pulls effective plugin
hook sources and plugin hook load warnings from `PluginsManager` when
`plugin_hooks` is enabled, then passes them into `HooksConfig`.
- `core/src/hook_runtime.rs` adds the `plugin` metric tag for
`HookSource::Plugin`.
- `core/config.schema.json` picks up the new `plugin_hooks` feature
flag, and `core/src/plugins/manager_tests.rs` updates fixtures for the
added plugin hook fields.

## Why
Runtime decisions should not infer permissions from the lossy legacy
sandbox projection once `PermissionProfile` is available. In particular,
`Disabled` and `External` need to remain distinct, and managed profiles
with split filesystem or deny-read rules should not be collapsed before
approval, network, safety, or analytics code makes decisions.
## What Changed
- Changes managed network proxy setup and network approval logic to use
`PermissionProfile` when deciding whether a managed sandbox is active.
- Migrates patch safety, Guardian/user-shell approval paths, Landlock
helper setup, analytics sandbox classification, and selected
turn/session code to profile-backed permissions.
- Validates command-level profile overrides against the constrained
`PermissionProfile` rather than a strict `SandboxPolicy` round trip.
- Preserves configured deny-read restrictions when command profiles are
narrowed.
- Adds coverage for profile-backed trust, network proxy/approval
behavior, patch safety, analytics classification, and command-profile
narrowing.

* #19395
* #19394
* __->__ #19393
## Why
This supersedes #19391. During stack repair, GitHub marked #19391 as
merged into a temporary stack branch rather than into `main`, so the
runtime-config change needed a fresh PR.
`PermissionProfile` is now the canonical permissions shape after #19231
because it can distinguish `Managed`, `Disabled`, and `External`
enforcement while also carrying filesystem rules that legacy
`SandboxPolicy` cannot represent cleanly. Core config and session state
still needed to accept profile-backed permissions without forcing every
profile through the strict legacy bridge, which rejected valid runtime
profiles such as direct write roots.
The unrelated CI/test hardening that previously rode along with this PR
has been split into #19683 so this PR stays focused on the permissions
model migration.
## What Changed
- Adds `Permissions.permission_profile` and
`SessionConfiguration.permission_profile` as constrained runtime state,
while keeping `sandbox_policy` as a legacy compatibility projection.
- Introduces profile setters that keep `PermissionProfile`, split
filesystem/network policies, and legacy `SandboxPolicy` projections
synchronized.
- Uses a compatibility projection for requirement checks and legacy
consumers instead of rejecting profiles that cannot round-trip through
`SandboxPolicy` exactly.
- Updates config loading, config overrides, session updates, turn
context plumbing, prompt permission text, sandbox tags, and exec request
construction to carry profile-backed runtime permissions.
- Preserves configured deny-read entries and `glob_scan_max_depth` when
command/session profiles are narrowed.
- Adds `PermissionProfile::read_only()` and
`PermissionProfile::workspace_write()` presets that match legacy
defaults.
## Verification

## Why
The profile conversion path still required a `cwd` even when it was only
translating a legacy `SandboxPolicy` into a `PermissionProfile`. That
made profile producers invent an ambient `cwd`, which is exactly the
anchoring we are trying to remove from permission-profile data. A legacy
workspace-write policy can be represented symbolically instead: `:cwd =
write` plus read-only `:project_roots` metadata subpaths.
This PR creates that cwd-free base so the rest of the stack can stop
threading cwd through profile construction. Callers that actually need a
concrete runtime filesystem policy for a specific cwd still have an
explicitly named cwd-bound conversion.
## What Changed
- `PermissionProfile::from_legacy_sandbox_policy` now takes only
`&SandboxPolicy`.
- `FileSystemSandboxPolicy::from_legacy_sandbox_policy` is now the
symbolic, cwd-free projection for profiles.
- The old concrete projection is retained as
`FileSystemSandboxPolicy::from_legacy_sandbox_policy_for_cwd` for
runtime/boundary code that must materialize legacy cwd behavior.
- Workspace-write profiles preserve `CurrentWorkingDirectory` and
`ProjectRoots` special entries instead of materializing cwd into
absolute paths.

* #19393
* #19392
* #19391
* __->__ #19414
## 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.

## 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
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol
approvals_reviewer_serializes_auto_review_and_accepts_legacy_guardian_subagent`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol
approvals_reviewer_serializes_auto_review_and_accepts_legacy_guardian_subagent`
- `cargo test -p codex-config approvals_reviewer`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui update_feature_flags`
- `cargo test -p codex-core permissions_instructions`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui permissions_selection`
### Why
Auto-review is the user-facing name for the approvals reviewer, but the
config/API value still exposed the old `guardian_subagent` name. That
made new configs and generated schemas point users at Guardian
terminology even though the intended product surface is Auto-review.
This PR updates the external `approvals_reviewer` value while preserving
compatibility for existing configs and clients.
### What changed
- Makes `auto_review` the canonical serialized value for
`approvals_reviewer`.
- Keeps `guardian_subagent` accepted as a legacy alias.
- Keeps `user` accepted and serialized as `user`.
- Updates generated config and app-server schemas so
`approvals_reviewer` includes:
- `user`
- `auto_review`
- `guardian_subagent`
- Updates app-server README docs for the reviewer value.
- Updates analytics and config requirements tests for the canonical
auto_review value.
### Compatibility
Existing configs and API payloads using:
```toml
approvals_reviewer = "guardian_subagent"
```
continue to load and map to the Auto-review reviewer behavior.
New serialization emits:
```toml
approvals_reviewer = "auto_review"
```
This PR intentionally does not rename the [features].guardian_approval
key or broad internal Guardian symbols. Those are split out for a
follow-up PR to keep this migration small and avoid touching large
TUI/internal surfaces.

cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol

## Why
Guardian approvals now run as review sessions, but Codex analytics did
not have a terminal event for those reviews. That made it hard to
measure approval outcomes, failure modes, Guardian session reuse, model
metadata, token usage, and timing separately from the parent turn.
## What changed
Adds `codex_guardian_review` analytics emission for Guardian approval
reviews. The event is emitted from the Guardian review path with review
identity, target item id, approval request source, a PII-minimized
reviewed-action shape, terminal decision/status, failure reason,
Guardian assessment fields, Guardian session metadata, token usage, and
timing metadata.
The reviewed-action payload intentionally omits high-risk fields such as
shell commands, working directories, argv, file paths, network
targets/hosts, rationale, retry reason, and permission justifications.
It also classifies prompt-build failures separately from Guardian
session/runtime failures so fail-closed cases are distinguishable in
analytics.
## Verification
- Guardian review analytics tests cover terminal success,
timeout/cancel/fail-closed paths, session metadata, and token usage
plumbing.
- `cargo clippy -p codex-core --lib --tests -- -D warnings`

## 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.

## Summary
This PR fully reverts the previously merged Agent Identity runtime
integration from the old stack:
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/17387/changes
It removes the Codex-side task lifecycle wiring, rollout/session
persistence, feature flag plumbing, lazy `auth.json` mutation,
background task auth paths, and request callsite changes introduced by
that stack.
This leaves the repo in a clean pre-AgentIdentity integration state so
the follow-up PRs can reintroduce the pieces in smaller reviewable
layers.
## Stack
1. This PR: full revert
2. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18871: move Agent Identity
business logic into a crate
3. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18785: add explicit
AgentIdentity auth mode and startup task allocation
4. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18811: migrate auth callsites
through AuthProvider
## Testing
Tests: targeted Rust checks, cargo-shear, Bazel lock check, and CI.
## Why
Guardian review analytics needs a Rust event shape that matches the
backend schema while avoiding unnecessary PII exposure from reviewed
tool calls. This PR narrows the analytics payload to the fields we
intend to emit and keeps shared Guardian assessment enums in protocol
instead of duplicating equivalent analytics-only enums.
## What changed
- Uses protocol Guardian enums directly for `risk_level`,
`user_authorization`, `outcome`, and command source values.
- Removes high-risk reviewed-action fields from the analytics payload,
including raw commands, display strings, working directories, file
paths, network targets/hosts, justification text, retry reason, and
rationale text.
- Makes `target_item_id` and `tool_call_count` nullable so the Codex
event can represent cases where the app-server protocol or producer does
not have those values.
- Keeps lower-risk structured reviewed-action metadata such as sandbox
permissions, permission profile, `tty`, `execve` source/program, network
protocol/port, and MCP connector/tool labels.
- Adds an analytics reducer/client test covering `codex_guardian_review`
serialization with an optional `target_item_id` and absent removed
fields.

## Summary
Introduces a single background/control-plane agent task for ChatGPT
backend requests that do not have a thread-scoped task, with
`AuthManager` owning the default ChatGPT backend authorization decision.
Callers now ask `AuthManager` for the default ChatGPT backend
authorization header. `AuthManager` decides whether that is bearer or
background AgentAssertion based on config/internal state, while
low-level bootstrap paths can explicitly request bearer-only auth.
This PR is stacked on PR4 and focuses on the shared background task auth
plumbing plus the first tranche of backend/control-plane consumers. The
remaining callsite wiring is split into PR4.2 to keep review size down.
## Stack
- PR1: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/17385 - add
`features.use_agent_identity`
- PR2: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/17386 - register agent

`AgentAssertion` auth
- PR4.2: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18260 - use background

## What Changed
- add background task registration and assertion minting inside
`codex-login`
- persist `agent_identity.background_task_id` separately from
per-session task state
- make `BackgroundAgentTaskManager` private to `codex-login`; call sites
do not instantiate or pass it around
- teach `AuthManager` the ChatGPT backend base URL and feature-derived
background auth mode from resolved config
- expose bearer-only helpers for bootstrap/registration/refresh-style
paths that must not use AgentAssertion
- wire `AuthManager` default ChatGPT authorization through app listing,
connector directory listing, remote plugins, MCP status/listing,
analytics, and core-skills remote calls
- preserve bearer fallback when the feature is disabled, the backend
host is unsupported, or background task registration is not available

## Why
We need `PermissionRequest` hook support!
Also addresses:
- https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/16301
- run a script on Hook to do things like play a sound to draw attention
but actually no-op so user can still approve
- can omit the `decision` object from output or just have the script
exit 0 and print nothing
- https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/15311
- let the script approve/deny on its own
- external UI what will run on Hook and relay decision back to codex
## Reviewer Note
There's a lot of plumbing for the new hook, key files to review are:
- New hook added in `codex-rs/hooks/src/events/permission_request.rs`
- Wiring for network approvals
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/network_approval.rs`
- Wiring for tool orchestrator `codex-rs/core/src/tools/orchestrator.rs`
- Wiring for execve
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/runtimes/shell/unix_escalation.rs`
## What
- Wires shell, unified exec, and network approval prompts into the
`PermissionRequest` hook flow.
- Lets hooks allow or deny approval prompts; quiet or invalid hooks fall
back to the normal approval path.
- Uses `tool_input.description` for user-facing context when it helps:
- shell / `exec_command`: the request justification, when present
- network approvals: `network-access <domain>`
- Uses `tool_name: Bash` for shell, unified exec, and network approval
permission-request hooks.
- For network approvals, passes the originating command in
`tool_input.command` when there is a single owning call; otherwise falls
back to the synthetic `network-access ...` command.

## Follow-ups
- Implement the `PermissionRequest` semantics for `updatedInput`,
`updatedPermissions`, `interrupt`, and suggestions /
`permission_suggestions`
- Add `PermissionRequest` support for the `request_permissions` tool

# Why
Add product analytics for hook handler executions so we can understand
which hooks are running, where they came from, and whether they
completed, failed, stopped, or blocked work.
# What
- add the new `codex_hook_run` analytics event and payload plumbing in
`codex-rs/analytics`
- emit hook-run analytics from the shared hook completion path in
`codex-rs/core`
- classify hook source from the loaded hook path as `system`, `user`,
`project`, or `unknown`
```

"event_type": "codex_hook_run",
"event_params": {
"thread_id": "string",
"turn_id": "string",
"model_slug": "string",
"hook_name": "string, // any HookEventName
"hook_source": "system | user | project | unknown",
"status": "completed | failed | stopped | blocked"
}
}

## Summary
Adds `thread_source` field to the existing Codex turn metadata sent to
Responses API
- Sends `thread_source: "user"` for user-initiated sessions: CLI, VS
Code, and Exec
- Sends `thread_source: "subagent"` for subagent sessions
- Omits `thread_source` for MCP, custom, and unknown session sources
- Uses the existing turn metadata transport:
- HTTP requests send through the `x-codex-turn-metadata` header
- WebSocket `response.create` requests send through
`client_metadata["x-codex-turn-metadata"]`
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol
session_source_thread_source_name_classifies_user_and_subagent_sources`
- `cargo test -p codex-core turn_metadata_state`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test responses_headers
responses_stream_includes_turn_metadata_header_for_git_workspace_e2e --
--nocapture`
Addresses #17498
Problem: The TUI derived /status instruction source paths from the local
client environment, which could show stale <none> output or incorrect
paths when connected to a remote app server.
Solution: Add an app-server v2 instructionSources snapshot to thread
start/resume/fork responses, default it to an empty list when older
servers omit it, and render TUI /status from that server-provided
session data.
Additional context: The app-server field is intentionally named
instructionSources rather than AGENTS.md-specific terminology because
the loaded instruction sources can include global instructions, project
AGENTS.md files, AGENTS.override.md, user-defined instruction files, and
future dynamic sources.
## Summary
This PR adds the parent conversation/session id to the subagent-start
analytics event for Guardian subagents.
Previously, Guardian sessions were emitted as subagent
thread-initialized events, but their `parent_thread_id` was serialized
as `null`. After this change, the `codex_thread_initialized` analytics
event for a Guardian child session includes the parent user conversation
id.
Addresses #16560
Problem: `/status` stopped showing the source thread id in forked TUI
sessions after the app-server migration.
Solution: Carry fork source ids through app-server v2 thread data and
the TUI session adapter, and update TUI fixtures so `/status` matches
the old TUI behavior.
## Why
`argument-comment-lint` was green in CI even though the repo still had
many uncommented literal arguments. The main gap was target coverage:
the repo wrapper did not force Cargo to inspect test-only call sites, so
examples like the `latest_session_lookup_params(true, ...)` tests in
`codex-rs/tui_app_server/src/lib.rs` never entered the blocking CI path.
This change cleans up the existing backlog, makes the default repo lint
path cover all Cargo targets, and starts rolling that stricter CI
enforcement out on the platform where it is currently validated.
## What changed
- mechanically fixed existing `argument-comment-lint` violations across
the `codex-rs` workspace, including tests, examples, and benches
- updated `tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh` and
`tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh` so non-`--fix` runs default to
`--all-targets` unless the caller explicitly narrows the target set
- fixed both wrappers so forwarded cargo arguments after `--` are
preserved with a single separator
- documented the new default behavior in
`tools/argument-comment-lint/README.md`
- updated `rust-ci` so the macOS lint lane keeps the plain wrapper
invocation and therefore enforces `--all-targets`, while Linux and
Windows temporarily pass `-- --lib --bins`
That temporary CI split keeps the stricter all-targets check where it is
already cleaned up, while leaving room to finish the remaining Linux-
and Windows-specific target-gated cleanup before enabling
`--all-targets` on those runners. The Linux and Windows failures on the
intermediate revision were caused by the wrapper forwarding bug, not by
additional lint findings in those lanes.
## Validation
- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh`
- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --lib --bins`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --tests`
- `just argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test` in `tools/argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test -p codex-terminal-detection`
## Follow-up
- Clean up remaining Linux-only target-gated callsites, then switch the
Linux lint lane back to the plain wrapper invocation.
- Clean up remaining Windows-only target-gated callsites, then switch
the Windows lint lane back to the plain wrapper invocation.
## Summary
- move the analytics events client into codex-analytics
- update codex-core and app-server callsites to use the new crate
## Testing
- CI
