- create `codex-git-utils` and move the shared git helpers into it with
file moves preserved for diff readability
- move the `GitInfo` helpers out of `core` so stacked rollout work can
depend on the shared crate without carrying its own git info module

- Prefer plugin manifest `interface.displayName` for plugin labels.
- Preserve plugin provenance when handling `list_mcp_tools` so connector
`plugin_display_names` are not clobbered.
- Add a TUI test to ensure plugin-owned app mentions are deduped
correctly.
## Summary
- update the self-serve business usage-based limit message to direct
users to their admin for additional credits
- add a focused unit test for the self_serve_business_usage_based plan
branch
Added also:
If you are at a rate limit but you still have credits, codex cli would
tell you to switch the model. We shouldnt do this if you have credits so
fixed this.
## Test
- launched the source-built CLI and verified the updated message is
shown for the self-serve business usage-based plan
## Summary
Adds support for approvals_reviewer to `Op::UserTurn` so we can migrate
`[CodexMessageProcessor::turn_start]` to use Op::UserTurn
## Testing
- [x] Adds quick test for the new field

- add `PreToolUse` hook for bash-like tool execution only at first
- block shell execution before dispatch with deny-only hook behavior
- introduces common.rs matcher framework for matching when hooks are run
example run:
```
› run three parallel echo commands, and the second one should echo "[block-pre-tool-use]" as a test
• Running the three echo commands in parallel now and I’ll report the output directly.
• Running PreToolUse hook: name for demo pre tool use hook
• Running PreToolUse hook: name for demo pre tool use hook
• Running PreToolUse hook: name for demo pre tool use hook
PreToolUse hook (completed)
warning: wizard-tower PreToolUse demo inspected Bash: echo "first parallel echo"
PreToolUse hook (blocked)
warning: wizard-tower PreToolUse demo blocked a Bash command on purpose.
feedback: PreToolUse demo blocked the command. Remove [block-pre-tool-use] to continue.
PreToolUse hook (completed)
warning: wizard-tower PreToolUse demo inspected Bash: echo "third parallel echo"
• Ran echo "first parallel echo"
└ first parallel echo
• Ran echo "third parallel echo"
└ third parallel echo
• Three little waves went out in parallel.
1. printed first parallel echo
2. was blocked before execution because it contained the exact test string [block-pre-tool-use]
3. printed third parallel echo
There was also an unrelated macOS defaults warning around the successful commands, but the echoes
themselves worked fine. If you want, I can rerun the second one with a slightly modified string so
it passes cleanly.
```
## Summary
- route /realtime, Ctrl+C, and deleted realtime meters through the same
realtime stop path
- keep generic transcription placeholder cleanup free of realtime
shutdown side effects
## Testing

### Preliminary /plugins TUI menu
- Adds a preliminary /plugins menu flow in both tui and tui_app_server.
- Fetches plugin list data asynchronously and shows loading/error/cached
states.
- Limits this first pass to the curated ChatGPT marketplace.
- Shows available plugins with installed/status metadata.
- Supports in-menu search over plugin display name, plugin id, plugin
name, and marketplace label.
- Opens a plugin detail view on selection, including summaries for
Skills, Apps, and MCP Servers, with back navigation.
### Testing
- Launch codex-cli with plugins enabled (`--enable plugins`).
- Run /plugins and verify:
- loading state appears first
- plugin list is shown
- search filters results
- selecting a plugin opens detail view, with a list of
skills/connectors/MCP servers for the plugin
- back action returns to the list.
- Verify disabled behavior by running /plugins without plugins enabled
(shows “Plugins are disabled” message).
- Launch with `--enable tui_app_server` (and plugins enabled) and repeat
the same /plugins flow; behavior should match.
## Why
The argument-comment lint now has a packaged DotSlash artifact from
[#15198](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/15198), so the normal repo
lint path should use that released payload instead of rebuilding the
lint from source every time.
That keeps `just clippy` and CI aligned with the shipped artifact while
preserving a separate source-build path for people actively hacking on
the lint crate.
The current alpha package also exposed two integration wrinkles that the
repo-side prebuilt wrapper needs to smooth over:
- the bundled Dylint library filename includes the host triple, for
example `@nightly-2025-09-18-aarch64-apple-darwin`, and Dylint derives
`RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN` from that filename
- on Windows, Dylint's driver path also expects `RUSTUP_HOME` to be
present in the environment
Without those adjustments, the prebuilt CI jobs fail during `cargo
metadata` or driver setup. This change makes the checked-in prebuilt
wrapper normalize the packaged library name to the plain
`nightly-2025-09-18` channel before invoking `cargo-dylint`, and it
teaches both the wrapper and the packaged runner source to infer
`RUSTUP_HOME` from `rustup show home` when the environment does not
already provide it.
After the prebuilt Windows lint job started running successfully, it
also surfaced a handful of existing anonymous literal callsites in
`windows-sandbox-rs`. This PR now annotates those callsites so the new
cross-platform lint job is green on the current tree.
## What Changed
- checked in the current
`tools/argument-comment-lint/argument-comment-lint` DotSlash manifest
- kept `tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh` as the source-build wrapper
for lint development
- added `tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh` as the
normal enforcement path, using the checked-in DotSlash package and
bundled `cargo-dylint`
- updated `just clippy` and `just argument-comment-lint` to use the
prebuilt wrapper
- split `.github/workflows/rust-ci.yml` so source-package checks live in
a dedicated `argument_comment_lint_package` job, while the released lint
runs in an `argument_comment_lint_prebuilt` matrix on Linux, macOS, and
Windows
- kept the pinned `nightly-2025-09-18` toolchain install in the prebuilt
CI matrix, since the prebuilt package still relies on rustup-provided
toolchain components
- updated `tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh` to
normalize host-qualified nightly library filenames, keep the `rustup`
shim directory ahead of direct toolchain `cargo` binaries, and export
`RUSTUP_HOME` when needed for Windows Dylint driver setup
- updated `tools/argument-comment-lint/src/bin/argument-comment-lint.rs`
so future published DotSlash artifacts apply the same nightly-filename
normalization and `RUSTUP_HOME` inference internally
- fixed the remaining Windows lint violations in
`codex-rs/windows-sandbox-rs` by adding the required `/*param*/`
comments at the reported callsites
- documented the checked-in DotSlash file, wrapper split, archive
layout, nightly prerequisite, and Windows `RUSTUP_HOME` requirement in
`tools/argument-comment-lint/README.md`
- Split the feature system into a new `codex-features` crate.
- Cut `codex-core` and workspace consumers over to the new config and
warning APIs.

- Move core/src/terminal.rs and its tests into a standalone
terminal-detection workspace crate.

## Problem
When multiple Codex sessions are open at once, terminal tabs and windows
are hard to distinguish from each other. The existing status line only
helps once the TUI is already focused, so it does not solve the "which
tab is this?" problem.
This PR adds a first-class `/title` command so the terminal window or
tab title can carry a short, configurable summary of the current
session.
## Screenshot
<img width="849" height="320" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8b112927-7890-45ed-bb1e-adf2f584663d"
/>
## Mental model
`/statusline` and `/title` are separate status surfaces with different
constraints. The status line is an in-app footer that can be denser and
more detailed. The terminal title is external terminal metadata, so it
needs short, stable segments that still make multiple sessions easy to
tell apart.
The `/title` configuration is an ordered list of compact items. By
default it renders `spinner,project`, so active sessions show
lightweight progress first while idle sessions still stay easy to
disambiguate. Each configured item is omitted when its value is not
currently available rather than forcing a placeholder.
## Non-goals
This does not merge `/title` into `/statusline`, and it does not add an
arbitrary free-form title string. The feature is intentionally limited
to a small set of structured items so the title stays short and
reviewable.
This also does not attempt to restore whatever title the terminal or
shell had before Codex started. When Codex clears the title, it clears
the title Codex last wrote.
## Tradeoffs
A separate `/title` command adds some conceptual overlap with
`/statusline`, but it keeps title-specific constraints explicit instead
of forcing the status line model to cover two different surfaces.
Title refresh can happen frequently, so the implementation now shares
parsing and git-branch orchestration between the status line and title
paths, and caches the derived project-root name by cwd. That keeps the
hot path cheap without introducing background polling.
## Architecture
The TUI gets a new `/title` slash command and a dedicated picker UI for
selecting and ordering terminal-title items. The chosen ids are
persisted in `tui.terminal_title`, with `spinner` and `project` as the
default when the config is unset. `status` remains available as a
separate text item, so configurations like `spinner,status` render
compact progress like `⠋ Working`.
`ChatWidget` now refreshes both status surfaces through a shared
`refresh_status_surfaces()` path. That shared path parses configured
items once, warns on invalid ids once, synchronizes shared cached state
such as git-branch lookup, then renders the footer status line and
terminal title from the same snapshot.
Low-level OSC title writes live in `codex-rs/tui/src/terminal_title.rs`,
which owns the terminal write path and last-mile sanitization before
emitting OSC 0.
## Security
Terminal-title text is treated as untrusted display content before Codex
emits it. The write path strips control characters, removes invisible
and bidi formatting characters that can make the title visually
misleading, normalizes whitespace, and caps the emitted length.

## Observability
Unknown configured title item ids are warned about once instead of
repeatedly spamming the transcript. Live preview applies immediately
while the `/title` picker is open, and cancel rolls the in-memory title
selection back to the pre-picker value.
If terminal title writes fail, the TUI emits debug logs around set and
clear attempts. The rendered status label intentionally collapses richer
internal states into compact title text such as `Starting...`, `Ready`,
`Thinking...`, `Working...`, `Waiting...`, and `Undoing...` when
`status` is configured.
## Tests
Ran:
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui`
At the moment, the red Windows `rust-ci` failures are due to existing
`codex-core` `apply_patch_cli` stack-overflow tests that also reproduce
on `main`. The `/title`-specific `codex-tui` suite is green.
- this allows blocking the user's prompts from executing, and also
prevents them from entering history
- handles the edge case where you can both prevent the user's prompt AND
add n amount of additionalContexts
- refactors some old code into common.rs where hooks overlap
functionality
- refactors additionalContext being previously added to user messages,
instead we use developer messages for them
- handles queued messages correctly
Sample hook for testing - if you write "[block-user-submit]" this hook
will stop the thread:

## Why
Once the repo-local lint exists, `codex-rs` needs to follow the
checked-in convention and CI needs to keep it from drifting. This commit
applies the fallback `/*param*/` style consistently across existing
positional literal call sites without changing those APIs.
The longer-term preference is still to avoid APIs that require comments
by choosing clearer parameter types and call shapes. This PR is
intentionally the mechanical follow-through for the places where the
existing signatures stay in place.
After rebasing onto newer `main`, the rollout also had to cover newly
introduced `tui_app_server` call sites. That made it clear the first cut
of the CI job was too expensive for the common path: it was spending
almost as much time installing `cargo-dylint` and re-testing the lint
crate as a representative test job spends running product tests. The CI
update keeps the full workspace enforcement but trims that extra
overhead from ordinary `codex-rs` PRs.
## What changed
- keep a dedicated `argument_comment_lint` job in `rust-ci`
- mechanically annotate remaining opaque positional literals across
`codex-rs` with exact `/*param*/` comments, including the rebased
`tui_app_server` call sites that now fall under the lint
- keep the checked-in style aligned with the lint policy by using
`/*param*/` and leaving string and char literals uncommented
- cache `cargo-dylint`, `dylint-link`, and the relevant Cargo
registry/git metadata in the lint job
- split changed-path detection so the lint crate's own `cargo test` step
runs only when `tools/argument-comment-lint/*` or `rust-ci.yml` changes
- continue to run the repo wrapper over the `codex-rs` workspace, so
product-code enforcement is unchanged
Most of the code changes in this commit are intentionally mechanical
comment rewrites or insertions driven by the lint itself.
## Verification
- `./tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh --workspace`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui-app-server -p codex-tui`
- parsed `.github/workflows/rust-ci.yml` locally with PyYAML

## Summary
- reuse a guardian subagent session across approvals so reviews keep a
stable prompt cache key and avoid one-shot startup overhead
- clear the guardian child history before each review so prior guardian
decisions do not leak into later approvals
- include the `smart_approvals` -> `guardian_approval` feature flag
rename in the same PR to minimize release latency on a very tight
timeline
- add regression coverage for prompt-cache-key reuse without
prior-review prompt bleed

- Bug/enhancement request: internal guardian prompt-cache and latency
improvement request

### Motivation
- Interrupting a running turn (Ctrl+C / Esc) currently also terminates
long‑running background shells, which is surprising for workflows like
local dev servers or file watchers.
- The existing cleanup command name was confusing; callers expect an
explicit command to stop background terminals rather than a UI clear
action.
- Make background‑shell termination explicit and surface a clearer
command name while preserving backward compatibility.
### Description
- Renamed the background‑terminal cleanup slash command from `Clean`
(`/clean`) to `Stop` (`/stop`) and kept `clean` as an alias in the
command parsing/visibility layer, updated the user descriptions and
command popup wiring accordingly.
- Updated the unified‑exec footer text and snapshots to point to `/stop`
(and trimmed corresponding snapshot output to match the new label).
- Changed interrupt behavior so `Op::Interrupt` (Ctrl+C / Esc interrupt)
no longer closes or clears tracked unified exec / background terminal
processes in the TUI or core cleanup path; background shells are now
preserved after an interrupt.
- Updated protocol/docs to clarify that `turn/interrupt` (or
`Op::Interrupt`) interrupts the active turn but does not terminate
background terminals, and that `thread/backgroundTerminals/clean` is the
explicit API to stop those shells.
- Updated unit/integration tests and insta snapshots in the TUI and core
unified‑exec suites to reflect the new semantics and command name.
### Testing
- Ran formatting with `just fmt` in `codex-rs` (succeeded).
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-protocol` (succeeded).
- Attempted `cargo test -p codex-tui` but the build could not complete
in this environment due to a native build dependency that requires
`libcap` development headers (the `codex-linux-sandbox` vendored build
step); install `libcap-dev` / make `libcap.pc` available in
`PKG_CONFIG_PATH` to run the TUI test suite locally.
- Updated and accepted the affected `insta` snapshots for the TUI
changes so visual diffs reflect the new `/stop` wording and preserved
interrupt behavior.

[Codex
Task](https://chatgpt.com/codex/tasks/task_i_69b39c44b6dc8323bd133ae206310fae)
We regularly get bug reports from users who mistakenly have the
`OPENAI_BASE_URL` environment variable set. This PR deprecates this
environment variable in favor of a top-level config key
`openai_base_url` that is used for the same purpose. By making it a
config key, it will be more visible to users. It will also participate
in all of the infrastructure we've added for layered and managed
configs.
Summary
- introduce the `openai_base_url` top-level config key, update
schema/tests, and route the built-in openai provider through it while
- fall back to deprecated `OPENAI_BASE_URL` env var but warn user of
deprecation when no `openai_base_url` config key is present
- update CLI, SDK, and TUI code to prefer the new config path (with a
deprecated env-var fallback) and document the SDK behavior change
## Summary
- add `approvals_reviewer = "user" | "guardian_subagent"` as the runtime
control for who reviews approval requests
- route Smart Approvals guardian review through core for command
execution, file changes, managed-network approvals, MCP approvals, and
delegated/subagent approval flows
- expose guardian review in app-server with temporary unstable
`item/autoApprovalReview/{started,completed}` notifications carrying
`targetItemId`, `review`, and `action`
- update the TUI so Smart Approvals can be enabled from `/experimental`,
aligned with the matching `/approvals` mode, and surfaced clearly while
reviews are pending or resolved
## Runtime model
This PR does not introduce a new `approval_policy`.
Instead:
- `approval_policy` still controls when approval is needed
- `approvals_reviewer` controls who reviewable approval requests are
routed to:
- `user`
- `guardian_subagent`
`guardian_subagent` is a carefully prompted reviewer subagent that
gathers relevant context and applies a risk-based decision framework
before approving or denying the request.
The `smart_approvals` feature flag is a rollout/UI gate. Core runtime
behavior keys off `approvals_reviewer`.
When Smart Approvals is enabled from the TUI, it also switches the
current `/approvals` settings to the matching Smart Approvals mode so
users immediately see guardian review in the active thread:
- `approval_policy = on-request`
- `approvals_reviewer = guardian_subagent`
- `sandbox_mode = workspace-write`
Users can still change `/approvals` afterward.
Config-load behavior stays intentionally narrow:
- plain `smart_approvals = true` in `config.toml` remains just the
rollout/UI gate and does not auto-set `approvals_reviewer`
- the deprecated `guardian_approval = true` alias migration does
backfill `approvals_reviewer = "guardian_subagent"` in the same scope
when that reviewer is not already configured there, so old configs
preserve their original guardian-enabled behavior
ARC remains a separate safety check. For MCP tool approvals, ARC
escalations now flow into the configured reviewer instead of always
bypassing guardian and forcing manual review.
## Config stability
The runtime reviewer override is stable, but the config-backed
app-server protocol shape is still settling.
- `thread/start`, `thread/resume`, and `turn/start` keep stable
`approvalsReviewer` overrides
- the config-backed `approvals_reviewer` exposure returned via
`config/read` (including profile-level config) is now marked
`[UNSTABLE]` / experimental in the app-server protocol until we are more
confident in that config surface
## App-server surface
This PR intentionally keeps the guardian app-server shape narrow and
temporary.
It adds generic unstable lifecycle notifications:
- `item/autoApprovalReview/started`
- `item/autoApprovalReview/completed`
with payloads of the form:
- `{ threadId, turnId, targetItemId, review, action? }`
`review` is currently:
- `{ status, riskScore?, riskLevel?, rationale? }`
- where `status` is one of `inProgress`, `approved`, `denied`, or
`aborted`
`action` carries the guardian action summary payload from core when
available. This lets clients render temporary standalone pending-review
UI, including parallel reviews, even when the underlying tool item has
not been emitted yet.
These notifications are explicitly documented as `[UNSTABLE]` and
expected to change soon.
This PR does **not** persist guardian review state onto `thread/read`
tool items. The intended follow-up is to attach guardian review state to
the reviewed tool item lifecycle instead, which would improve
consistency with manual approvals and allow thread history / reconnect
flows to replay guardian review state directly.
## TUI behavior
- `/experimental` exposes the rollout gate as `Smart Approvals`
- enabling it in the TUI enables the feature and switches the current
session to the matching Smart Approvals `/approvals` mode
- disabling it in the TUI clears the persisted `approvals_reviewer`
override when appropriate and returns the session to default manual
review when the effective reviewer changes
- `/approvals` still exposes the reviewer choice directly
- the TUI renders:
- pending guardian review state in the live status footer, including
parallel review aggregation
- resolved approval/denial state in history
## Scope notes
This PR includes the supporting core/runtime work needed to make Smart
Approvals usable end-to-end:
- shell / unified-exec / apply_patch / managed-network / MCP guardian
review
- delegated/subagent approval routing into guardian review
- guardian review risk metadata and action summaries for app-server/TUI
- config/profile/TUI handling for `smart_approvals`, `guardian_approval`
alias migration, and `approvals_reviewer`
- a small internal cleanup of delegated approval forwarding to dedupe
fallback paths and simplify guardian-vs-parent approval waiting (no
intended behavior change)
Out of scope for this PR:
- redesigning the existing manual approval protocol shapes
- persisting guardian review state onto app-server `ThreadItem`s
- delegated MCP elicitation auto-review (the current delegated MCP
guardian shim only covers the legacy `RequestUserInput` path)

There are some bug investigations that currently require us to ask users
for their user ID even though they've already uploaded logs and session
details via `/feedback`. This frustrates users and increases the time
for diagnosis.
This PR includes the ChatGPT user ID in the metadata uploaded for
`/feedback` (both the TUI and app-server).
(Experimental)
This PR adds a first MVP for hooks, with SessionStart and Stop
The core design is:
- hooks live in a dedicated engine under codex-rs/hooks
- each hook type has its own event-specific file
- hook execution is synchronous and blocks normal turn progression while
running
- matching hooks run in parallel, then their results are aggregated into
a normalized HookRunSummary
On the AppServer side, hooks are exposed as operational metadata rather
than transcript-native items:
- new live notifications: hook/started, hook/completed
- persisted/replayed hook results live on Turn.hookRuns
- we intentionally did not add hook-specific ThreadItem variants
Hooks messages are not persisted, they remain ephemeral. The context
changes they add are (they get appended to the user's prompt)
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.

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:

## 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`
#### 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 `$`

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.
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

Addresses #13478
Summary
- Add two new scopes for `tui.notifications` config: `plan-mode-prompt`
and `user-input-requested`.
- Add Plan Mode prompt and user-input-requested notifications to the TUI
so these events surface consistently outside of plan mode
- Add helpers and tests to ensure the new notification types publish the
right titles, summaries, and type tags for filtering
- Add prioritization mechanism to fix an existing bug where one
notification event could arbitrarily overwrite others
Testing
- Manually tested plan mode to ensure that notification appeared
