Adds a new apps_mcp_gateway flag to route Apps MCP calls through
https://api.openai.com/v1/connectors/mcp/ when enabled, while keeping
legacy MCP routing as default.
This PR introduces a skill-expansion mechanism for mentions so nested or
skill or connection mentions are expanded if present in skills invoked
by the user. This keeps behavior aligned with existing mention handling
while extending coverage to deeper scenarios. With these changes, users
can create skills that invoke connectors, and skills that invoke other
skills.
Replaces #10863, which is not needed with the addition of
[search_tool_bm25](https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/10657)
This PR makes `Config.apps `experimental-only and fixes a TS schema
post-processing bug that removed needed imports. The bug happened
because import pruning only checked the inner type body after filtering,
not the full alias, so `JsonValue` got dropped from `Config.ts`. We now
prune against the full alias body and added a regression test for this
scenario.
This PR fixes jitter in the TUI apps menu by making the description
column stable during rendering and height measurement.
Added a `stable_desc_col` option to
`SelectionViewParams`/`ListSelectionView`, introduced stable variants of
the shared row render/measure helpers in `selection_popup_common`, and
enabled the stable mode for the apps/connectors picker in `chatwidget`.
With these changes, only the apps/connectors picker uses this new
option, though it could be used elsewhere in the future.
Why: previously, the description column was computed from only currently
visible rows, so as you scrolled or filtered, the column could shift and
cause wrapping/height changes that looked jumpy. Computing it from all
rows in this popup keeps alignment and layout consistent as users scroll
through avaialble apps.

This PR adds a new approval option for app/MCP tool calls: “Allow and
remember” (session-scoped).
When selected, Codex stores a temporary approval and auto-approves
matching future calls for the rest of the session.
Added a session-scoped approval key (`server`, `connector_id`,
`tool_name`) and persisted it in `tool_approvals` as
`ApprovedForSession`.
On subsequent matching calls, approval is skipped and treated as
accepted.
- Updated the approval question options to conditionally include:
- Accept
- Allow and remember (conditional)
- Decline
- Cancel
The new “Allow and remember” option is only shown when all of these are
true:
1. The call is routed through the Codex Apps MCP server (codex_apps).
2. The tool requires approval based on annotations:
- read_only_hint == false, and
- destructive_hint == true or open_world_hint == true.
3. The tool includes a connector_id in metadata (used to build the
remembered approval key).
If no `connector_id` is present, the prompt still appears (when approval
is required), but only with the existing choices (Accept / Decline /
Cancel). Approval prompting in this path has an explicit early return
unless server == `codex_apps`.
