Today, there is a single capability SID that allows the sandbox to write
to
* workspace (cwd)
* tmp directories if enabled
* additional writable roots
This change splits those up, so that each workspace has its own
capability SID, while tmp and additional roots, which are
installation-wide, are still governed by the "generic" capability SID
This isolates workspaces from each other in terms of sandbox write
access.
Also allows us to protect <cwd>/.codex when codex runs in a specific
<cwd>
## Summary
- Remove elevated runner request files after read (best-effort cleanup
on errors)
- Add a unit test to cover request file lifecycle
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-windows-sandbox` (Windows)
Fixes#9315
The elevated sandbox creates two new Windows users - CodexSandboxOffline
and CodexSandboxOnline. This is necessary, so this PR does all that it
can to "hide" those users. It uses the registry plus directory flags (on
their home directories) to get them to show up as little as possible.
The elevated setup synchronously applies read/write ACLs to any
workspace roots.
However, until we apply *read* permission to the full path, powershell
cannot use some roots as a cwd as it needs access to all parts of the
path in order to apply it as the working directory for a command.
The solution is, while the async read-ACL part of setup is running, use
a "junction" that lives in C:\Users\CodexSandbox{Offline|Online} that
points to the cwd.
Once the read ACLs are applied, we stop using the junction.
-----
this PR also removes some dead code and overly-verbose logging, and has
some light refactoring to the ACL-related functions
## Description
Introduced `ExternalSandbox` policy to cover use case when sandbox
defined by outside environment, effectively it translates to
`SandboxMode#DangerFullAccess` for file system (since sandbox configured
on container level) and configurable `network_access` (either Restricted
or Enabled by outside environment).
as example you can configure `ExternalSandbox` policy as part of
`sendUserTurn` v1 app_server API:
```
{
"conversationId": <id>,
"cwd": <cwd>,
"approvalPolicy": "never",
"sandboxPolicy": {
"type": ""external-sandbox",
"network_access": "enabled"/"restricted"
},
"model": <model>,
"effort": <effort>,
....
}
```
