## Summary
- make resolved turn environment shell metadata optional instead of
hard-coding bash
- render environment context shells from explicit environment metadata
when present, falling back to the existing session shell
- update environment context tests for inherited PowerShell-style
fallback and explicit per-environment shell override
## Testing
- Not run (not requested; formatted with `just fmt`).

## Why
This is a prep PR in the multi-environment process-tool stack. It
separates ownership/config cleanup from the behavior change that teaches
process tools to route by selected environment, so the follow-up PR can
focus on model-facing `environment_id` behavior.
## Stack
1. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/20646 - `EnvironmentContext`
rendering for selected environments
2. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/20669 - selected-environment
ownership and tool config prep (this PR)
3. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/20647 - process-tool
`environment_id` routing
## What Changed
- keep the resolved turn environment list wrapped in
`ResolvedTurnEnvironments` through `TurnContext` instead of unwrapping
it back to a raw `Vec`
- add `TurnContext::resolve_path_against` so cwd-relative path
resolution has one shared helper
- replace the old tool config boolean with `ToolEnvironmentMode::{None,
Single, Multiple}`
## Testing
- Tests not run locally; this prep refactor is covered by GitHub CI for
the stack.

## Why
The model needs a way to see which environments are available during a
multi-environment turn without changing the legacy single-environment
prompt surface or pulling replay/persistence changes into the same
review.

rendering for selected environments (this PR)
2. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/20669 - selected-environment

3. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/20647 - process-tool
`environment_id` routing
## What Changed
- extend `environment_context` so multi-environment turns render an
`<environments>` block with the selected environment ids and cwd values
- keep zero- and single-environment turns on the existing cwd-only
render path
- keep replay and persistence paths on the legacy surface for now so
this PR stays scoped to live prompt rendering
- add focused coverage in
`codex-rs/core/src/context/environment_context_tests.rs`

Keep extracting memories out of core and moving the write trigger in the
app-server
This is temporary and it should move at the client level as a follow-up
This makes core fully independant from `codex-memories-write`

## 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
- `cargo test -p codex-core direct_write_roots`
- `cargo test -p codex-core runtime_roots_to_legacy_projection`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server

## Why
`ReadOnlyAccess` was a transitional legacy shape on `SandboxPolicy`:
`FullAccess` meant the historical read-only/workspace-write modes could
read the full filesystem, while `Restricted` tried to carry partial
readable roots. The partial-read model now belongs in
`FileSystemSandboxPolicy` and `PermissionProfile`, so keeping it on
`SandboxPolicy` makes every legacy projection reintroduce lossy
read-root bookkeeping and creates unnecessary noise in the rest of the
permissions migration.
This PR makes the legacy policy model narrower and explicit:
`SandboxPolicy::ReadOnly` and `SandboxPolicy::WorkspaceWrite` represent
the old full-read sandbox modes only. Split readable roots, deny-read
globs, and platform-default/minimal read behavior stay in the runtime
permissions model.
## What changed
- Removes `ReadOnlyAccess` from
`codex_protocol::protocol::SandboxPolicy`, including the generated
`access` and `readOnlyAccess` API fields.
- Updates legacy policy/profile conversions so restricted filesystem
reads are represented only by `FileSystemSandboxPolicy` /
`PermissionProfile` entries.
- Keeps app-server v2 compatible with legacy `fullAccess` read-access
payloads by accepting and ignoring that no-op shape, while rejecting
legacy `restricted` read-access payloads instead of silently widening
them to full-read legacy policies.
- Carries Windows sandbox platform-default read behavior with an
explicit override flag instead of depending on
`ReadOnlyAccess::Restricted`.
- Refreshes generated app-server schema/types and updates tests/docs for
the simplified legacy policy shape.
## Verification

- `cargo check -p codex-windows-sandbox --tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol sandbox_policy_`

## Why
`MultiAgentV2` follow-up messages are delivered to agents as
assistant-authored `InterAgentCommunication` envelopes. When
`followup_task` used `interrupt: true`, the interrupted-turn guidance
was still persisted as a contextual user message, so model-visible
history made a system-generated interruption boundary look
user-authored.
This keeps interruption guidance consistent with the rest of the v2
inter-agent message stream while preserving the legacy marker shape for
non-v2 sessions.
## What changed
- Make `interrupted_turn_history_marker` feature-aware.
- Record the interrupted-turn marker as an assistant `OutputText`
message when `Feature::MultiAgentV2` is enabled.
- Keep the existing user contextual fragment for non-v2 sessions.
- Apply the same feature-aware marker to interrupted fork snapshots.
- Add coverage for the live `followup_task` interrupt path and the
helper-level v2 marker shape.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-core
multi_agent_v2_followup_task_interrupts_busy_child_without_losing_message

- `cargo test -p codex-core
multi_agent_v2_interrupted_marker_uses_assistant_output_message --
--nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core interrupted_fork_snapshot -- --nocapture`
## Why
MultiAgentV2 children should not receive an extra model-visible
developer fragment just because they were spawned. The parent/configured
developer instructions should carry through normally, but the dedicated
`<spawned_agent_context>` block is no longer desired.
## What changed
- Removed the `SpawnAgentInstructions` context fragment and its
`<spawned_agent_context>` wrapper.
- Stopped appending spawned-agent instructions in
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers/multi_agents_v2/spawn.rs`.
- Updated subagent notification coverage to assert inherited parent
developer instructions without expecting the spawned-agent wrapper.

## 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
