This changes our default Landlock policy to allow `sendmsg(2)` and
`recvmsg(2)` syscalls. We believe these were originally denied out of an
abundance of caution, but given that `send(2)` nor `recv(2)` are allowed
today [which provide comparable capability to the `*msg` equivalents],
we do not believe allowing them grants any privileges beyond what we
already allow.
Rather than using the syscall as the security boundary, preventing
access to the potentially hazardous file descriptor in the first place
seems like the right layer of defense.
In particular, this makes it possible for `shell-tool-mcp` to run on
Linux when using a read-only sandbox for the Bash process, as
demonstrated by `accept_elicitation_for_prompt_rule()` now succeeding in
CI.
This PR introduces integration tests that run
[codex-shell-tool-mcp](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@openai/codex-shell-tool-mcp)
as a user would. Note that this requires running our fork of Bash, so we
introduce a [DotSlash](https://dotslash-cli.com/) file for `bash` so
that we can run the integration tests on multiple platforms without
having to check the binaries into the repository. (As noted in the
DotSlash file, it is slightly more heavyweight than necessary, which may
be worth addressing as disk space in CI is limited:
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/7678.)
To start, this PR adds two tests:
- `list_tools()` makes the `list_tools` request to the MCP server and
verifies we get the expected response
- `accept_elicitation_for_prompt_rule()` defines a `prefix_rule()` with
`decision="prompt"` and verifies the elicitation flow works as expected
Though the `accept_elicitation_for_prompt_rule()` test **only works on
Linux**, as this PR reveals that there are currently issues when running
the Bash fork in a read-only sandbox on Linux. This will have to be
fixed in a follow-up PR.
Incidentally, getting this test run to correctly on macOS also requires
a recent fix we made to `brew` that hasn't hit a mainline release yet,
so getting CI green in this PR required
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/7680.
