## Summary
- remove the remaining model-visible guardian-specific `on-request`
prompt additions so enabling the feature does not change the main
approval-policy instructions
- neutralize user-facing guardian wording to talk about automatic
approval review / approval requests rather than a second reviewer or
only sandbox escalations
- tighten guardian retry-context handling so agent-authored
`justification` stays in the structured action JSON and is not also
injected as raw retry context
- simplify guardian review plumbing in core by deleting dead
prompt-append paths and trimming some request/transcript setup code
## Notable Changes
- delete the dead `permissions/approval_policy/guardian.md` append path
and stop threading `guardian_approval_enabled` through model-facing
developer-instruction builders
- rename the experimental feature copy to `Automatic approval review`
and update the `/experimental` snapshot text accordingly
- make approval-review status strings generic across shell, patch,
network, and MCP review types
- forward real sandbox/network retry reasons for shell and unified-exec
guardian review, but do not pass agent-authored justification as raw
retry context
- simplify `guardian.rs` by removing the one-field request wrapper,
deduping reasoning-effort selection, and cleaning up transcript entry
collection
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- full validation left to CI

Adds a built-in `request_permissions` tool and wires it through the
Codex core, protocol, and app-server layers so a running turn can ask
the client for additional permissions instead of relying on a static
session policy.
The new flow emits a `RequestPermissions` event from core, tracks the
pending request by call ID, forwards it through app-server v2 as an
`item/permissions/requestApproval` request, and resumes the tool call
once the client returns an approved subset of the requested permission
profile.
## Summary
- split the pending input preview into labeled pending-steer and queued
follow-up sections
- explain that pending steers submit after the next tool call and that
Esc can interrupt and send them immediately
- treat Esc as an interrupt-plus-resubmit path when pending steers
exist, with updated TUI snapshots and tests
Queues and steers:

The TUI was showing the raw configured `model_context_window` until the
first
`TokenCount` event arrived, even though core had already emitted the
effective
runtime window on `TurnStarted`. This made the footer, status-line
context
window, and `/status` output briefly inconsistent for models/configs
where the
effective window differs from the configured value, such as the
`gpt-5.4`
1,000,000-token override reported in #13623.
Update the TUI to cache `TurnStarted.model_context_window` immediately
so
pre-token-count displays use the runtime effective window, and add
regression
coverage for the startup path.

## Summary
- add the guardian reviewer flow for `on-request` approvals in command,
patch, sandbox-retry, and managed-network approval paths
- keep guardian behind `features.guardian_approval` instead of exposing
a public `approval_policy = guardian` mode
- route ordinary `OnRequest` approvals to the guardian subagent when the
feature is enabled, without changing the public approval-mode surface
## Public model
- public approval modes stay unchanged
- guardian is enabled via `features.guardian_approval`
- when that feature is on, `approval_policy = on-request` keeps the same
approval boundaries but sends those approval requests to the guardian
reviewer instead of the user
- `/experimental` only persists the feature flag; it does not rewrite
`approval_policy`
- CLI and app-server no longer expose a separate `guardian` approval
mode in this PR
## Guardian reviewer
- the reviewer runs as a normal subagent and reuses the existing
subagent/thread machinery
- it is locked to a read-only sandbox and `approval_policy = never`
- it does not inherit user/project exec-policy rules
- it prefers `gpt-5.4` when the current provider exposes it, otherwise
falls back to the parent turn's active model
- it fail-closes on timeout, startup failure, malformed output, or any
other review error
- it currently auto-approves only when `risk_score < 80`
## Review context and policy
- guardian mirrors `OnRequest` approval semantics rather than
introducing a separate approval policy
- explicit `require_escalated` requests follow the same approval surface
as `OnRequest`; the difference is only who reviews them
- managed-network allowlist misses that enter the approval flow are also
reviewed by guardian
- the review prompt includes bounded recent transcript history plus
recent tool call/result evidence
- transcript entries and planned-action strings are truncated with
explicit `<guardian_truncated ... />` markers so large payloads stay
bounded
- apply-patch reviews include the full patch content (without
duplicating the structured `changes` payload)
- the guardian request layout is snapshot-tested using the same
model-visible Responses request formatter used elsewhere in core
## Guardian network behavior
- the guardian subagent inherits the parent session's managed-network
allowlist when one exists, so it can use the same approved network
surface while reviewing
- exact session-scoped network approvals are copied into the guardian
session with protocol/port scope preserved
- those copied approvals are now seeded before the guardian's first turn
is submitted, so inherited approvals are available during any immediate
review-time checks
## Out of scope / follow-ups
- the sandbox-permission validation split was pulled into a separate PR
and is not part of this diff
- a future follow-up can enable `serde_json` preserve-order in
`codex-core` and then simplify the guardian action rendering further

Addresses feature request #13660
Adds new option to `/statusline` so the status line can display "fast
on" or "fast off"
Summary
- introduce a `FastMode` status-line item so `/statusline` can render
explicit `Fast on`/`Fast off` text for the service tier
- wire the item into the picker metadata and resolve its string from
`ChatWidget` without adding any unrelated `thread-name` logic or storage
changes
- ensure the refresh paths keep the cached footer in sync when the
service tier (fast mode) changes
Testing
- Manually tested
Here's what it looks like when enabled:
<img width="366" height="75" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/7f992d2b-6dab-49ed-aa43-ad496f56f193"
/>
## Summary
- treat `requirements.toml` `allowed_domains` and `denied_domains` as
managed network baselines for the proxy
- in restricted modes by default, build the effective runtime policy
from the managed baseline plus user-configured allowlist and denylist
entries, so common hosts can be pre-approved without blocking later user
expansion
- add `experimental_network.managed_allowed_domains_only = true` to pin
the effective allowlist to managed entries, ignore user allowlist
additions, and hard-deny non-managed domains without prompting
- apply `managed_allowed_domains_only` anywhere managed network
enforcement is active, including full access, while continuing to
respect denied domains from all sources
- add regression coverage for merged-baseline behavior, managed-only
behavior, and full-access managed-only enforcement
## Behavior
Assuming `requirements.toml` defines both
`experimental_network.allowed_domains` and
`experimental_network.denied_domains`.
### Default mode
- By default, the effective allowlist is
`experimental_network.allowed_domains` plus user or persisted allowlist
additions.
- By default, the effective denylist is
`experimental_network.denied_domains` plus user or persisted denylist
additions.
- Allowlist misses can go through the network approval flow.
- Explicit denylist hits and local or private-network blocks are still
hard-denied.
- When `experimental_network.managed_allowed_domains_only = true`, only
managed `allowed_domains` are respected, user allowlist additions are
ignored, and non-managed domains are hard-denied without prompting.
- Denied domains continue to be respected from all sources.
### Full access
- With managed requirements present, the effective allowlist is pinned
to `experimental_network.allowed_domains`.
- With managed requirements present, the effective denylist is pinned to
`experimental_network.denied_domains`.
- There is no allowlist-miss approval path in full access.
- Explicit denylist hits are hard-denied.
- `experimental_network.managed_allowed_domains_only = true` now also
applies in full access, so managed-only behavior remains in effect
anywhere managed network enforcement is active.
## Summary
This is a purely mechanical refactor of `OtelManager` ->
`SessionTelemetry` to better convey what the struct is doing. No
behavior change.
## Why
`OtelManager` ended up sounding much broader than what this type
actually does. It doesn't manage OTEL globally; it's the session-scoped
telemetry surface for emitting log/trace events and recording metrics
with consistent session metadata (`app_version`, `model`, `slug`,
`originator`, etc.).
`SessionTelemetry` is a more accurate name, and updating the call sites
makes that boundary a lot easier to follow.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-otel`
- `cargo test -p codex-core`
Enhance pty utils:
* Support closing stdin
* Separate stderr and stdout streams to allow consumers differentiate them
* Provide compatibility helper to merge both streams back into combined one
* Support specifying terminal size for pty, including on-demand resizes while process is already running
* Support terminating the process while still consuming its outputs
#### What
Add structured `@plugin` parsing and TUI support for plugin mentions.
- Core: switch from plain-text `@display_name` parsing to structured
`plugin://...` mentions via `UserInput::Mention` and
`[$...](plugin://...)` links in text, same pattern as apps/skills.
- TUI: add plugin mention popup, autocomplete, and chips when typing
`$`. Load plugin capability summaries and feed them into the composer;
plugin mentions appear alongside skills and apps.
- Generalize mention parsing to a sigil parameter, still defaults to `$`

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f0fe2658-d908-4927-9139-73f850805ceb"
/>
Builds on #13510. Currently clients have to build their own `id` via
`plugin@marketplace` and filter plugins to show by `enabled`, but we
will add `id` and `available` as fields returned from `plugin/list`
soon.
####Tests
Added tests, verified locally.
### Summary
This adds turn-level latency metrics for the first model output and the
first completed agent message.
- `codex.turn.ttft.duration_ms` starts at turn start and records on the
first output signal we see from the model. That includes normal
assistant text, reasoning deltas, and non-text outputs like tool-call
items.
- `codex.turn.ttfm.duration_ms` also starts at turn start, but it
records when the first agent message finishes streaming rather than when
its first delta arrives.
### Implementation notes
The timing is tracked in codex-core, not app-server, so the definition
stays consistent across CLI, TUI, and app-server clients.
I reused the existing turn lifecycle boundary that already drives
`codex.turn.e2e_duration_ms`, stored the turn start timestamp in turn
state, and record each metric once per turn.
I also wired the new metric names into the OTEL runtime metrics summary
so they show up in the same in-memory/debug snapshot path as the
existing timing metrics.
## Summary
Simplify the trusted directory flow. This logic was originally designed
several months ago, to determine if codex should start in read-only or
workspace-write mode. However, that's no longer the purpose of directory
trust - and therefore we should get rid of this logic.
## Testing
- [x] Unit tests pass
## Summary
- delete the network proxy admin server and its runtime listener/task
plumbing
- remove the admin endpoint config, runtime, requirement, protocol,
schema, and debug-surface fields
- update proxy docs to reflect the remaining HTTP and SOCKS listeners
only
## Summary
- default the resume picker sort key to UpdatedAt instead of CreatedAt
- keep Tab sort toggling behavior and update the test expectation for
the new default
## Testing
- just fmt
- cargo test -p codex-tui

## Note-- added plugin mentions via @, but that conflicts with file
mentions
depends and builds upon #13433.
- introduces explicit `@plugin` mentions. this injects the plugin's mcp
servers, app names, and skill name format into turn context as a dev
message.
- we do not yet have UI for these mentions, so we currently parse raw
text (as opposed to skills and apps which have UI chips, autocomplete,
etc.) this depends on a `plugins/list` app-server endpoint we can feed
the UI with, which is upcoming
- also annotate mcp and app tool descriptions with the plugin(s) they
come from. this gives the model a first class way of understanding what
tools come from which plugins, which will help implicit invocation.
### Tests
Added and updated tests, unit and integration. Also confirmed locally a
raw `@plugin` injects the dev message, and the model knows about its
apps, mcps, and skills.
This PR adds a durable trace linkage for each turn by storing the active
trace ID on the rollout TurnContext record stored in session rollout
files.
Before this change, we propagated trace context at runtime but didn’t
persist a stable per-turn trace key in rollout history. That made
after-the-fact debugging harder (for example, mapping a historical turn
to the corresponding trace in datadog). This sets us up for much easier
debugging in the future.
### What changed
- Added an optional `trace_id` to TurnContextItem (rollout schema).
- Added a small OTEL helper to read the current span trace ID.
- Captured `trace_id` when creating `TurnContext` and included it in
`to_turn_context_item()`.
- Updated tests and fixtures that construct TurnContextItem so
older/no-trace cases still work.
### Why this approach
TurnContext is already the canonical durable per-turn metadata in
rollout. This keeps ownership clean: trace linkage lives with other
persisted turn metadata.
This adds a first-class server request for MCP server elicitations:
`mcpServer/elicitation/request`.
Until now, MCP elicitation requests only showed up as a raw
`codex/event/elicitation_request` event from core. That made it hard for
v2 clients to handle elicitations using the same request/response flow
as other server-driven interactions (like shell and `apply_patch`
tools).
This also updates the underlying MCP elicitation request handling in
core to pass through the full MCP request (including URL and form data)
so we can expose it properly in app-server.
### Why not `item/mcpToolCall/elicitationRequest`?
This is because MCP elicitations are related to MCP servers first, and
only optionally to a specific MCP tool call.
In the MCP protocol, elicitation is a server-to-client capability: the
server sends `elicitation/create`, and the client replies with an
elicitation result. RMCP models it that way as well.
In practice an elicitation is often triggered by an MCP tool call, but
not always.
### What changed
- add `mcpServer/elicitation/request` to the v2 app-server API
- translate core `codex/event/elicitation_request` events into the new
v2 server request
- map client responses back into `Op::ResolveElicitation` so the MCP
server can continue
- update app-server docs and generated protocol schema
- add an end-to-end app-server test that covers the full round trip
through a real RMCP elicitation flow
- The new test exercises a realistic case where an MCP tool call
triggers an elicitation, the app-server emits
mcpServer/elicitation/request, the client accepts it, and the tool call
resumes and completes successfully.
### app-server API flow
- Client starts a thread with `thread/start`.
- Client starts a turn with `turn/start`.
- App-server sends `item/started` for the `mcpToolCall`.
- While that tool call is in progress, app-server sends
`mcpServer/elicitation/request`.
- Client responds to that request with `{ action: "accept" | "decline" |
"cancel" }`.
- App-server sends `serverRequest/resolved`.
- App-server sends `item/completed` for the mcpToolCall.
- App-server sends `turn/completed`.
- If the turn is interrupted while the elicitation is pending,
app-server still sends `serverRequest/resolved` before the turn
finishes.
- add a speed row to the startup/session header under the model row
- render the speed row with the same styling pattern as the model row,
using /fast to change
- show only Fast or Standard to users and update the affected snapshots

## Problem
The `ansi`, `base16`, and `base16-256` syntax themes are designed to
emit ANSI palette colors so that highlighted code respects the user's
terminal color scheme. Syntect encodes this intent in the alpha channel
of its `Color` struct — a convention shared with `bat` — but
`convert_style` was ignoring it entirely, treating every foreground
color as raw RGB. This caused ANSI-family themes to produce hard-coded
RGB values (e.g. `Rgb(0x02, 0, 0)` instead of `Green`), defeating their
purpose and rendering them as near-invisible dark colors on most
terminals.
Reported in #12890.
## Mental model
Syntect themes use a compact encoding in their `Color` struct:
| `alpha` | Meaning of `r` | Mapped to |
|---------|----------------|-----------|
| `0x00` | ANSI palette index (0–255) | `RtColor::Black`…`Gray` for 0–7,
`Indexed(n)` for 8–255 |
| `0x01` | Unused (sentinel) | `None` — inherit terminal default fg/bg |
| `0xFF` | True RGB red channel | `RtColor::Rgb(r, g, b)` |
| other | Unexpected | `RtColor::Rgb(r, g, b)` (silent fallback) |
This encoding is a bat convention that three bundled themes rely on. The
new `convert_syntect_color` function decodes it; `ansi_palette_color`
maps indices 0–7 to ratatui's named ANSI variants.
| macOS - Dark | macOS - Light | Windows - ansi | Windows - base16 |
|---|---|---|---|

/> |

## Non-goals
- Background color decoding — we intentionally skip backgrounds to
preserve the terminal's own background. The decoder supports it, but
`convert_style` does not apply it.
- Italic/underline changes — those remain suppressed as before.
- Custom `.tmTheme` support for ANSI encoding — only the bundled themes
use this convention.
## Tradeoffs
- The alpha-channel encoding is an undocumented bat/syntect convention,
not a formal spec. We match bat's behavior exactly, trading formality
for ecosystem compatibility.
- Indices 0–7 are mapped to ratatui's named variants (`Black`, `Red`, …,
`Gray`) rather than `Indexed(0)`…`Indexed(7)`. This lets terminals apply
bold/bright semantics to named colors, which is the expected behavior
for ANSI themes, but means the two representations are not perfectly
round-trippable.
## Architecture
All changes are in `codex-rs/tui/src/render/highlight.rs`, within the
style-conversion layer between syntect and ratatui:
```
syntect::highlighting::Color
└─ convert_syntect_color(color) [NEW — alpha-dispatch]
├─ a=0x00 → ansi_palette_color() [NEW — index→named/indexed]
├─ a=0x01 → None (terminal default)
├─ a=0xFF → Rgb(r,g,b) (standard opaque path)
└─ other → Rgb(r,g,b) (silent fallback)
```
`convert_style` delegates foreground mapping to `convert_syntect_color`
instead of inlining the `Rgb(r,g,b)` conversion. The core highlighter is
refactored into `highlight_to_line_spans_with_theme` (accepts an
explicit theme reference) so tests can highlight against specific themes
without mutating process-global state.
### ANSI-family theme contract
The ANSI-family themes (`ansi`, `base16`, `base16-256`) rely on upstream
alpha-channel encoding from two_face/syntect. We intentionally do
**not** validate this contract at runtime — if the upstream format
changes, the `ansi_themes_use_only_ansi_palette_colors` test catches it
at build time, long before it reaches users. A runtime warning would be
unactionable noise.
### Warning copy cleanup
User-facing warning messages were rewritten for clarity:
- Removed internal jargon ("alpha-encoded ANSI color markers", "RGB
fallback semantics", "persisted override config")
- Dropped "syntax" prefix from "syntax theme" — users just think "theme"
- Downgraded developer-only diagnostics (duplicate override, resolve
fallback) from `warn` to `debug`
## Observability
- The `ansi_themes_use_only_ansi_palette_colors` test enforces the
ANSI-family contract at build time.
- The snapshot test provides a regression tripwire for palette color
output.
- User-facing warnings are limited to actionable issues: unknown theme
names and invalid custom `.tmTheme` files.
## Tests
- **Unit tests for each alpha branch:** `alpha=0x00` with low index
(named color), `alpha=0x00` with high index (`Indexed`), `alpha=0x01`
(terminal default), unexpected alpha (falls back to RGB), ANSI white →
Gray mapping.
- **Integration test:**
`ansi_family_themes_use_terminal_palette_colors_not_rgb` — highlights a
Rust snippet with each ANSI-family theme and asserts zero `Rgb`
foreground colors appear.
- **Snapshot test:** `ansi_family_foreground_palette_snapshot` — records
the exact set of unique foreground colors each ANSI-family theme
produces, guarding against regressions.
- **Warning validation tests:** verify user-facing warnings for missing
custom themes, invalid `.tmTheme` files, and bundled theme resolution.
## Test plan
- [ ] `cargo test -p codex-tui` passes all new and existing tests
- [ ] Select `ansi`, `base16`, or `base16-256` theme and verify code
blocks render with terminal palette colors (not near-black RGB)
- [ ] Select a standard RGB theme (e.g. `dracula`) and verify no
regression in color output

## Summary
Changes the permission profile shape from a bare network boolean to a
nested object.
Before:
```yaml
permissions:
network: true
```
After:
```yaml
permissions:
network:
enabled: true
```
This also updates the shared Rust and app-server protocol types so
`PermissionProfile.network` is no longer `Option<bool>`, but
`Option<NetworkPermissions>` with `enabled: Option<bool>`.
## What Changed
- Updated `PermissionProfile` in `codex-rs/protocol/src/models.rs`:
- `pub network: Option<bool>` -> `pub network:
Option<NetworkPermissions>`
- Added `NetworkPermissions` with:
- `pub enabled: Option<bool>`
- Changed emptiness semantics so `network` is only considered empty when
`enabled` is `None`
- Updated skill metadata parsing to accept `permissions.network.enabled`
- Updated core permission consumers to read
`network.enabled.unwrap_or(false)` where a concrete boolean is needed
- Updated app-server v2 protocol types and regenerated schema/TypeScript
outputs
- Updated docs to mention `additionalPermissions.network.enabled`
## Why
Enterprises can already constrain approvals, sandboxing, and web search
through `requirements.toml` and MDM, but feature flags were still only
configurable as managed defaults. That meant an enterprise could suggest
feature values, but it could not actually pin them.
This change closes that gap and makes enterprise feature requirements
behave like the other constrained settings. The effective feature set
now stays consistent with enterprise requirements during config load,
when config writes are validated, and when runtime code mutates feature
flags later in the session.
It also tightens the runtime API for managed features. `ManagedFeatures`
now follows the same constraint-oriented shape as `Constrained<T>`
instead of exposing panic-prone mutation helpers, and production code
can no longer construct it through an unconstrained `From<Features>`
path.
The PR also hardens the `compact_resume_fork` integration coverage on
Windows. After the feature-management changes,
`compact_resume_after_second_compaction_preserves_history` was
overflowing the libtest/Tokio thread stacks on Windows, so the test now
uses an explicit larger-stack harness as a pragmatic mitigation. That
may not be the ideal root-cause fix, and it merits a parallel
investigation into whether part of the async future chain should be
boxed to reduce stack pressure instead.
## What Changed
Enterprises can now pin feature values in `requirements.toml` with the
requirements-side `features` table:
```toml
[features]
personality = true
unified_exec = false
```
Only canonical feature keys are allowed in the requirements `features`
table; omitted keys remain unconstrained.
- Added a requirements-side pinned feature map to
`ConfigRequirementsToml`, threaded it through source-preserving
requirements merge and normalization in `codex-config`, and made the
TOML surface use `[features]` (while still accepting legacy
`[feature_requirements]` for compatibility).
- Exposed `featureRequirements` from `configRequirements/read`,
regenerated the JSON/TypeScript schema artifacts, and updated the
app-server README.
- Wrapped the effective feature set in `ManagedFeatures`, backed by
`ConstrainedWithSource<Features>`, and changed its API to mirror
`Constrained<T>`: `can_set(...)`, `set(...) -> ConstraintResult<()>`,
and result-returning `enable` / `disable` / `set_enabled` helpers.
- Removed the legacy-usage and bulk-map passthroughs from
`ManagedFeatures`; callers that need those behaviors now mutate a plain
`Features` value and reapply it through `set(...)`, so the constrained
wrapper remains the enforcement boundary.
- Removed the production loophole for constructing unconstrained
`ManagedFeatures`. Non-test code now creates it through the configured
feature-loading path, and `impl From<Features> for ManagedFeatures` is
restricted to `#[cfg(test)]`.
- Rejected legacy feature aliases in enterprise feature requirements,
and return a load error when a pinned combination cannot survive
dependency normalization.
- Validated config writes against enterprise feature requirements before
persisting changes, including explicit conflicting writes and
profile-specific feature states that normalize into invalid
combinations.
- Updated runtime and TUI feature-toggle paths to use the constrained
setter API and to persist or apply the effective post-constraint value
rather than the requested value.
- Updated the `core_test_support` Bazel target to include the bundled
core model-catalog fixtures in its runtime data, so helper code that
resolves `core/models.json` through runfiles works in remote Bazel test
environments.
- Renamed the core config test coverage to emphasize that effective
feature values are normalized at runtime, while conflicting persisted
config writes are rejected.
- Ran `compact_resume_after_second_compaction_preserves_history` inside
an explicit 8 MiB test thread and Tokio runtime worker stack, following
the existing larger-stack integration-test pattern, to keep the Windows
`compact_resume_fork` test slice from aborting while a parallel
investigation continues into whether some of the underlying async
futures should be boxed.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-config`
- `cargo test -p codex-core feature_requirements_ -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
load_requirements_toml_produces_expected_constraints -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
compact_resume_after_second_compaction_preserves_history -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core compact_resume_fork -- --nocapture`
- Re-ran the built `codex-core` `tests/all` binary with
`RUST_MIN_STACK=262144` for
`compact_resume_after_second_compaction_preserves_history` to confirm
the explicit-stack harness fixes the deterministic low-stack repro.
- `cargo test -p codex-core`
- This still fails locally in unrelated integration areas that expect
the `codex` / `test_stdio_server` binaries or hit existing `search_tool`
wiremock mismatches.
## Docs
`developers.openai.com/codex` should document the requirements-side
`[features]` table for enterprise and MDM-managed configuration,
including that it only accepts canonical feature keys and that
conflicting config writes are rejected.
## Summary
`PermissionProfile.network` could not be preserved when additional or
compiled permissions resolved to
`SandboxPolicy::ReadOnly`, because `ReadOnly` had no network_access
field. This change makes read-only + network
enabled representable directly and threads that through the protocol,
app-server v2 mirror, and permission-
merging logic.
## What changed
- Added `network_access: bool` to `SandboxPolicy::ReadOnly` in the core
protocol and app-server v2 protocol.
- Kept backward compatibility by defaulting the new field to false, so
legacy read-only payloads still
deserialize unchanged.
- Updated `has_full_network_access()` and sandbox summaries to respect
read-only network access.
- Preserved PermissionProfile.network when:
- compiling skill permission profiles into sandbox policies
- normalizing additional permissions
- merging additional permissions into existing sandbox policies
- Updated the approval overlay to show network in the rendered
permission rule when requested.
- Regenerated app-server schema fixtures for the new v2 wire shape.
## Summary
- submit `Enter` steers immediately while a turn is already running
instead of routing them through `queued_user_messages`
- keep those submitted steers visible in the footer as `pending_steers`
until core records them as a user message or aborts the turn
- reconcile pending steers on `ItemCompleted(UserMessage)`, not
`RawResponseItem`
- emit user-message item lifecycle for leftover pending input at task
finish, then remove the TUI `TurnComplete` fallback
- keep `queued_user_messages` for actual queued drafts, rendered below
pending steers
## Problem
While the assistant was generating, pressing `Enter` could send the
input into `queued_user_messages`. That queue only drains after the turn
ends, so ordinary steers behaved like queued drafts instead of landing
at the next core sampling boundary.
The first version of this fix also used `RawResponseItem` to decide when
a steer had landed. Review feedback was that this is the wrong
abstraction for client behavior.
There was also a late edge case in core: if pending steer input was
accepted after the final sampling decision but before `TurnComplete`,
core would record that user message into history at task finish without
emitting `ItemStarted(UserMessage)` / `ItemCompleted(UserMessage)`. TUI
had a fallback to paper over that gap locally.
## Approach
- `Enter` during an active turn now submits a normal `Op::UserTurn`
immediately
- TUI keeps a local pending-steer preview instead of rendering that user
message into history immediately
- when core records the steer as `ItemCompleted(UserMessage)`, TUI
matches and removes the corresponding pending preview, then renders the
committed user message
- core now emits the same user-message lifecycle when
`on_task_finished(...)` drains leftover pending user input, before
`TurnComplete`
- with that lifecycle gap closed in core, TUI no longer needs to flush
pending steers into history on `TurnComplete`
- if the turn is interrupted, pending steers and queued drafts are both
restored into the composer, with pending steers first
## Notes
- `Tab` still uses the real queued-message path
- `queued_user_messages` and `pending_steers` are separate state with
separate semantics
- the pending-steer matching key is built directly from `UserInput`
- this removes the new TUI dependency on `RawResponseItem`
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
task_finish_emits_turn_item_lifecycle_for_leftover_pending_user_input --
--nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui`
## Summary
- write app-server SQLite logs at TRACE level when SQLite is enabled
- source app-server `/feedback` log attachments from SQLite for the
requested thread when available
- flush buffered SQLite log writes before `/feedback` queries them so
newly emitted events are not lost behind the async inserter
- include same-process threadless SQLite rows in those `/feedback` logs
so the attachment matches the process-wide feedback buffer more closely
- keep the existing in-memory ring buffer fallback unchanged, including
when the SQLite query returns no rows
## Details
- add a byte-bounded `query_feedback_logs` helper in `codex-state` so
`/feedback` does not fetch all rows before truncating
- scope SQLite feedback logs to the requested thread plus threadless
rows from the same `process_uuid`
- format exported SQLite feedback lines with the log level prefix to
better match the in-memory feedback formatter
- add an explicit `LogDbLayer::flush()` control path and await it in
app-server before querying SQLite for feedback logs
- pass optional SQLite log bytes through `codex-feedback` as the
`codex-logs.log` attachment override
- leave TUI behavior unchanged apart from the updated `upload_feedback`
call signature
- add regression coverage for:
- newest-within-budget ordering
- excluding oversized newest rows
- including same-process threadless rows
- keeping the newest suffix across mixed thread and threadless rows
- matching the feedback formatter shape aside from span prefixes
- falling back to the in-memory snapshot when SQLite returns no logs
- flushing buffered SQLite rows before querying
## Follow-up
- SQLite feedback exports still do not reproduce span prefixes like
`feedback-thread{thread_id=...}:`; there is a `TODO(ccunningham)` in
`codex-rs/state/src/log_db.rs` for that follow-up.
## Testing
- `cd codex-rs && cargo test -p codex-state`
- `cd codex-rs && cargo test -p codex-app-server`
- `cd codex-rs && just fmt`
followup to https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/13212 to expose fast
tier controls to app server
(majority of this PR is generated schema jsons - actual code is +69 /
-35 and +24 tests )
- add service tier fields to the app-server protocol surfaces used by
thread lifecycle, turn start, config, and session configured events
- thread service tier through the app-server message processor and core
thread config snapshots
- allow runtime config overrides to carry service tier for app-server
callers
cleanup:
- Removing useless "legacy" code supporting "standard" - we moved to
None | "fast", so "standard" is not needed.
