Owen LinandGitHub 5b95745eae core: rename metadata -> internal_chat_message_metadata_passthrough (#28968)
## Description
This PR cuts Codex over from generic `ResponseItem.metadata` (introduced
here: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/28355) to
`ResponseItem.internal_chat_message_metadata_passthrough`, which is the
blessed path and has strongly-typed keys.

For now we have to drop this MAv2 usage of `metadata`:
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/28561 until we figure out where
that should live.

charlesgong-openaiandGitHub 64bdeed9f7 [codex] Preserve skill descriptions outside model context (#29006)
## Why

Skill descriptions are used in model-visible lists: the default
available-skills catalog that supports implicit selection, and the
on-demand `skills.list` tool response used to discover orchestrator
skills. A single overlong description should not consume a
disproportionate share of either list.

Enforcing the 1024-character limit while loading or migrating skills is
the wrong boundary: it rejects otherwise-valid skills and discards
metadata that non-model consumers and full skill reads may need. Skill
metadata and `SKILL.md` content should remain intact; the cap belongs at
model-visible list rendering boundaries.

## What changed

- Preserve full `description` and `metadata.short-description` values
when loading skills.
- Preserve full external-agent command descriptions during
`source-command-*` migration instead of skipping commands solely because
their descriptions exceed 1024 characters.
- Preserve full normalized orchestrator descriptions in the underlying
skills catalog.
- Cap each description at 1024 Unicode characters when rendering the
default available-skills context in `codex-core-skills` and
`codex-skills-extension`.
- Apply the same cap when serializing descriptions in the model-visible
`skills.list` response.
- Render truncated descriptions as 1021 original characters plus `...`.
- Leave explicit `$skill` injection, `skills.read`, underlying metadata,
and on-disk `SKILL.md` files unchanged and full-fidelity.

## Implicit skill selection

Codex injects a bounded catalog containing each implicitly allowed
skill's name, description, and source locator, together with
instructions to use a skill when the task clearly matches its
description. The model makes that semantic choice; after selecting a
skill, it reads the full `SKILL.md` from its filesystem or provider
resource. Explicit `$skill` mentions remain a separate path that injects
the full skill instructions. For orchestrator skills, `skills.list`
provides bounded discovery metadata before `skills.read` returns the
full selected resource.

## Test plan

- `just test -p codex-core-skills`
- `just test -p codex-skills-extension`
- `just test -p codex-external-agent-migration`

The focused regressions verify that overlong metadata is preserved at
load and migration boundaries while default available-skills rendering
and `skills.list` output produce the 1021-character prefix plus `...`.

rphilizaire-openaiandGitHub a57b268d61 [codex] trace pre-sampling skill and persistence latency (#29042) 2026-06-19 10:13:27 -07:00
jifandGitHub 81b000421d Add config toggles for orchestrator skills and MCP (#28942)
## Why

Orchestrator-provided skills and Codex Apps MCP tools add model-visible
instructions, resources, and tools beyond the local workspace. Hosts
need config-level switches to disable those orchestrator-owned surfaces
independently, without disabling regular skills or regular MCP servers.

## What changed

- Adds `[orchestrator.skills].enabled` and `[orchestrator.mcp].enabled`
config entries, both defaulting to `true`.
- Includes the new settings in `config.schema.json` and in the config
lock so resolved thread configuration preserves the same orchestrator
exposure decisions.
- Threads `orchestrator.skills.enabled` through the app-server skills
extension so disabled orchestrator skills do not expose the `skills`
namespace or inject orchestrator skill context.
- Gates Codex Apps MCP exposure, app instructions, and app auth
eligibility on `orchestrator.mcp.enabled` while leaving non-Codex-Apps
MCP tools available.
- Updates the thread-manager sample config to disable both
orchestrator-owned surfaces.

## Verification

- Added config parsing, loading, defaulting, and schema coverage for the
new settings.
- Added MCP exposure coverage that `orchestrator.mcp.enabled = false`
removes Codex Apps tools while preserving regular MCP tools.
- Added app-server coverage that `orchestrator.skills.enabled = false`
prevents orchestrator skill tools, prompts, and resource reads from
reaching the model turn.

Winston HowesandGitHub 3a2712ea14 Add indexed web search mode (#28489)
## Summary

- Add `web_search = "indexed"` alongside `disabled`, `cached`, and
`live`.
- Use that same resolved mode for both hosted and standalone web search.
- For hosted search, send `index_gated_web_access: true` with external
web access enabled only when `indexed` is selected.
- For standalone search, preserve the existing boolean wire values for
existing modes (`cached` maps to `false` and `live` to `true`) and send
`"indexed"` only for `indexed`; `disabled` keeps the tool unavailable.
- Carry the mode through managed configuration requirements and
generated schemas.

## Why

Indexed search provides a middle ground between cached-only search and
unrestricted live page fetching. Search queries can remain live while
direct page fetches are limited to URLs admitted by the server.

The existing `web_search` setting remains the single source of truth, so
hosted and standalone executors cannot drift into different access
modes. Without an explicit `indexed` selection, the existing
model-visible tool and request shapes are unchanged.

```toml
web_search = "indexed"

[features]
standalone_web_search = true
```

## Validation

- `just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-api` (`126 passed`)
- `just test -p codex-web-search-extension` (`7 passed`)
- `just test -p codex-core
code_mode_can_call_indexed_standalone_web_search` (`1 passed`)
- Focused configuration, hosted request, standalone request, and
managed-requirement coverage is included in the PR; remaining suites run
in CI.

The full workspace test suite was not run locally.

pakrym-oaiandGitHub f00f93d8c0 [codex] Assign response item IDs when recording history (#28814)
## Why

Client-created response items enter history without IDs, so their
identity is lost across rollout persistence and resume. IDs should be
assigned once at the history-recording boundary, while IDs returned by
the server must remain unchanged.

The Responses API validates item IDs using type-specific prefixes.
Locally generated IDs therefore use the matching prefix plus a
hyphenated UUIDv7, keeping them valid while distinguishable from
server-generated IDs. Because this changes persisted history and
provider request shapes, the behavior is opt-in behind the
under-development `item_ids` feature. Compaction triggers remain request
controls whose API shape does not accept an ID.

## What changed

- Register the disabled-by-default `item_ids` feature and expose it in
`config.schema.json`.
- Make supported optional `ResponseItem` IDs serializable and expose
them in the generated app-server schemas.
- When `item_ids` is enabled, assign an ID during conversation-history
preparation if an item has no ID.
- Generate type-prefixed, hyphenated UUIDv7 IDs using the Responses API
item conventions.
- Preserve existing server IDs without rewriting them.
- Persist assigned IDs in rollouts and include them in subsequent
Responses requests.
- Remove the unsupported ID field from `CompactionTrigger` and document
why it has no ID.
- Add integration coverage for enabled ID persistence, preservation of
server IDs, and omission of generated IDs while the feature is disabled.

`prepare_conversation_items_for_history` is the single response-item ID
allocation boundary.

xl-openaiandGitHub e83b7841b0 [codex] Reuse parsed plugin skills during session startup (#28844)
## Summary

- Preserve raw plugin skill-root snapshots in the matching loaded-plugin
cache entry, keyed by the effective plugin root identity including
namespace.
- Pass those snapshots through `SkillsLoadInput` as an optional preload,
so session startup reuses plugin parsing while ordinary skill loads pass
`None`.
- Keep plugin skill loading cohesive: the existing loaders accept the
optional snapshots directly, and uncached or marketplace-detail paths do
not create a cache.

## Why

Plugin discovery already parses plugin skills to determine available
capabilities. Cold session startup then scanned and parsed the same
roots again while building the skills snapshot.

This solves the same duplicate-work problem as #28623 while keeping
ownership narrow: `PluginsManager` creates and owns
`PluginSkillSnapshots` only for its loaded-plugin cache entry;
`SkillsService` consumes an optional clone. Entry replacement or
clearing naturally drops the snapshots, with no separate generation,
capacity policy, or watcher coupling.

Eric TrautandGitHub e8dd1b45cb Fix goal-first live threads missing from thread/list (#28808)
Fixes #28263.

## Why

When a thread starts with `/goal`, the goal extension can update SQLite
goal state before the thread has any user-turn rollout items.
`thread/list` and `thread/search` rely on persisted listing metadata, so
a goal-first live thread could be absent from app-server listings after
restart even though the goal itself existed.

This regressed when goal handling moved out of core: the core path wrote
the goal update through the live thread rollout path, while the
extension-backed app-server path only updated goal state and emitted the
live notification.

## What

- Add `GoalSetOutcome::thread_goal_updated_item()` so the goal extension
owns the canonical `ThreadGoalUpdated` rollout item shape.
- Expose a narrow `CodexThread::append_rollout_items()` helper that
appends through the live thread and keeps derived SQLite metadata in
sync.
- When app-server sets a goal on an active live thread, persist the goal
update through that live-thread path.
- Add an app-server regression test that starts a live thread with
`thread/goal/set` and verifies it appears in state-DB-only
`thread/list`.

Matthew ZengandGitHub c73296a0f0 [codex] Pass plugin namespace into skill loading (#28608)
## What changed

- retain the parsed plugin manifest namespace on loaded plugins
- carry that namespace through `PluginSkillRoot` and `SkillRoot`
- use the provided namespace when qualifying plugin skill names
- include the namespace in the skills cache key

## Why

Plugin loading has already parsed `plugin.json`, but skill parsing
currently walks every `SKILL.md` ancestor and probes/reads the manifest
again to reconstruct the same namespace. Passing the parsed namespace
removes those repeated filesystem calls, which are particularly costly
on remote filesystems.

Context:
https://openai.slack.com/archives/C0ARA9GF5D4/p1781639496496439?thread_ts=1781202444.891669&cid=C0ARA9GF5D4

## Impact

Plugin skill names remain unchanged. A regression test uses a
deliberately different on-disk manifest name to verify that plugin roots
use the provided parsed namespace.

charlesgong-openaiandGitHub e12dd73b7d [codex] Support plugin manifest path lists (#28790)
## Summary

Allow plugin manifests to declare `skills` as either a single path
string or an array of path strings in the core plugin loader.

## Why

Some plugin packages need to expose skills from more than one directory.
Before this change, `plugin.json` only accepted a single string for
`skills`, so manifests like this were ignored as an invalid `skills`
shape:

```json
{
  "skills": ["./skills/abc", "./skills/edk"]
}
```

This keeps the existing single-string form working while adding support
for the list form. The final scope is intentionally limited to the core
plugin manifest/load path for `skills`; `apps`, file-backed
`mcpServers`, and the bundled plugin-creator assets are unchanged in
this PR.

## What changed

- Parse `skills` as either a string or an array of strings in
`plugin.json`.
- Store resolved skill paths as a list in `PluginManifestPaths`.
- Load manifest-declared skill roots in addition to the default
`./skills` root.
- Deduplicate exact duplicate skill roots before loading.
- Rely on existing skill-loader dedupe by canonical `SKILL.md` path for
overlapping roots such as `./skills` plus `./skills/abc`.
- Update plugin manifest tests to cover:
  - single string `skills`
  - list of string `skills`
  - duplicate skill roots
  - `./skills` as a manifest path
  - explicit child roots like `./skills/abc` and `./skills/edk`
  - overlapping-root dedupe

pakrym-oaiandGitHub dbd2857f4b [codex] Add optional IDs to response items (#28812)
## Why

`ResponseItem` variants do not have a consistent internal ID shape: some
variants carry required IDs, some carry optional IDs, and some cannot
represent an ID at all. The existing fields also use inconsistent serde,
TypeScript, and JSON-schema annotations. A single enum-level access path
is needed before history recording can assign and retain IDs.

This PR establishes that internal model only. It intentionally does not
generate or serialize IDs; allocation and wire persistence are isolated
in the stacked follow-up.

## What changed

- Give every concrete `ResponseItem` variant an `Option<String>` ID
field.
- Apply the same internal-only annotations to every ID field:
`#[serde(default, skip_serializing)]`, `#[ts(skip)]`, and
`#[schemars(skip)]`.
- Add `ResponseItem::id()` and `ResponseItem::set_id()` as the shared
accessors.
- Preserve IDs when history items are rewritten for truncation.
- Adapt consumers that previously assumed reasoning and image-generation
IDs were required.
- Regenerate app-server schemas so the hidden fields are represented
consistently.

The serde catch-all `ResponseItem::Other` remains ID-less because it
must remain a unit variant.

jifandGitHub 0318381762 Replace SkillsManager with SkillsService (#28705)
## Why

Host skill discovery was still exposed as a manager even though it is a
process-owned service shared by sessions, the app-server catalog, and
file-watcher invalidation. The skills extension also consumed an ad hoc
loaded-skills wrapper instead of a named immutable snapshot.

## What changed

- replace `SkillsManager` with concrete `SkillsService`
- make the service cache and return immutable `HostSkillsSnapshot`
values
- migrate the skills extension host provider to the snapshot boundary
- migrate app-server catalog, watcher, and invalidation paths to the
service

This keeps the service limited to host discovery, caching, roots, and
invalidation. Catalog rendering and invocation remain extension
responsibilities for the next stacked change.

charlesgong-openaiandGitHub 1883dedc0e [codex] Support object-valued plugin MCP manifests (#28580)
## Summary
This fixes plugin manifest parsing for MCP servers declared as an object
directly in `plugin.json`.

Before this change, Codex modeled `mcpServers` as only a string path,
for example:

```json
{
  "name": "counter-sample",
  "version": "1.1.1",
  "mcpServers": "./.mcp.json"
}
```

Some migrated plugins instead provide the server map directly in the
manifest:

```json
{
  "name": "counter-sample",
  "version": "1.1.1",
  "description": "Plugin that declares MCP servers in the manifest",
  "mcpServers": {
    "counter": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://sample.example/counter/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

That object form previously failed during install/load with an error
like:

```text
failed to parse plugin manifest: invalid type: map, expected a string
```

## What changed
- Add a manifest representation for `mcpServers` as either
`Path(Resource)` or `Object(map)`.
- Parse `plugin.json` `mcpServers` as either a string path or an object.
- Route object-valued MCP server maps through the existing plugin MCP
config parser instead of adding a second parser.
- Apply existing per-plugin MCP server policy to object-valued MCP
servers the same way as file-backed MCP servers.
- Include object-valued MCP server names in plugin telemetry/capability
metadata.
- Support object-valued MCP config for executor plugins without
requiring a `.mcp.json` filesystem read.
- Update the bundled plugin-creator validator and `plugin-json-spec.md`
so generated-plugin validation accepts the same object-valued shape.

## Compatibility
Existing plugin manifests that use `"mcpServers": "./.mcp.json"`
continue to work. Plugins can now also use the object shape shown above.

## Tests
Added coverage for the new manifest attribute shape at the install,
normal load, telemetry, and executor-provider layers:

- `install_accepts_manifest_mcp_server_objects`
- `load_plugins_loads_manifest_mcp_server_objects`
- `plugin_telemetry_metadata_uses_manifest_mcp_server_objects`
- `reads_manifest_object_config_without_executor_file_system_access`

Also smoke-tested the plugin-creator validator against both supported
forms:

- `mcpServers` as a direct object in `plugin.json`
- `mcpServers` as `"./.mcp.json"` with a companion `.mcp.json`

pakrym-oaiandGitHub a4711b88dd [codex] exec-server: stream files in chunks (#28354)
## Why

`fs/readFile` buffers the entire file in one response, which makes large
remote reads expensive and prevents callers from applying backpressure.
We need an opt-in streaming path with bounded block sizes while
preserving the existing single-call API for small and sandboxed reads.

## What changed

- Add `ExecServerClient::stream`, returning a named `FileReadStream`
that implements `futures::Stream` and yields immutable 1 MiB byte
blocks.
- Add internal `fs/open`, `fs/readBlock`, and `fs/close` RPCs.
`fs/readBlock` accepts an explicit offset and length.
- Keep unsandboxed files open between block reads, cap open handles per
connection, and clean them up on EOF, error, stream drop, explicit
close, or connection shutdown.
- Reject platform-sandboxed streaming opens instead of turning the
one-shot sandbox helper into a persistent server. Existing `fs/readFile`
behavior is unchanged.

## Testing

- `just test -p codex-exec-server`
- Integration coverage for 1 MiB chunking, exact block-boundary EOF,
sandbox rejection, and continued reads from the opened file after path
replacement.
- Handle-manager coverage for non-sequential offsets, variable block
lengths, the 128-handle limit, and capacity release after close.

jifandGitHub 5b22a8e5b1 feat: render typed envelopes for multi-agent v2 messages (#28368)
## Why

Multi-agent v2 messages need a consistent, model-visible envelope that
identifies what kind of interaction occurred, who sent it, and which
agent it targets. Previously, encrypted deliveries exposed only
`encrypted_content`, while child completion used the legacy
`<subagent_notification>` shape. That meant the client could not
consistently present `NEW_TASK`, `MESSAGE`, and `FINAL_ANSWER` using the
same format.

This change adds the routing envelope as plaintext while keeping task
and message payloads encrypted. No new Responses API field is required:
an encrypted delivery is represented as an `input_text` header
immediately followed by its existing `encrypted_content` item.

Every envelope now follows this shape:

```text
Message Type: <NEW_TASK | MESSAGE | FINAL_ANSWER>
Task name: <recipient agent path>
Sender: <author agent path>
Payload:
<message payload>
```

## Message types

### `NEW_TASK`

`NEW_TASK` is used when the recipient should begin a new turn, including
an initial `spawn_agent` task and a later `followup_task`.

For a root agent spawning `/root/worker`, the request contains a
plaintext envelope followed by the encrypted task:

```json
{
  "type": "agent_message",
  "author": "/root",
  "recipient": "/root/worker",
  "content": [
    {
      "type": "input_text",
      "text": "Message Type: NEW_TASK\nTask name: /root/worker\nSender: /root\nPayload:\n"
    },
    {
      "type": "encrypted_content",
      "encrypted_content": "<encrypted task payload>"
    }
  ]
}
```

Conceptually, the model receives:

```text
Message Type: NEW_TASK
Task name: /root/worker
Sender: /root
Payload:
Review the authentication changes and report any regressions.
```

### `MESSAGE`

`MESSAGE` is used for a queued `send_message` delivery. It communicates
with an existing agent without starting a new turn.

For `/root/worker` reporting progress to the root agent, the request
contains:

```json
{
  "type": "agent_message",
  "author": "/root/worker",
  "recipient": "/root",
  "content": [
    {
      "type": "input_text",
      "text": "Message Type: MESSAGE\nTask name: /root\nSender: /root/worker\nPayload:\n"
    },
    {
      "type": "encrypted_content",
      "encrypted_content": "<encrypted message payload>"
    }
  ]
}
```

Conceptually, the model receives:

```text
Message Type: MESSAGE
Task name: /root
Sender: /root/worker
Payload:
The protocol tests pass; I am checking the resume path now.
```

### `FINAL_ANSWER`

`FINAL_ANSWER` is emitted when a child agent reaches a terminal state
and reports its result to its parent. Completion payloads are already
available locally, so the complete envelope is represented as plaintext
rather than as a plaintext header plus encrypted content.

For `/root/worker` completing work for the root agent, the request
contains:

```json
{
  "type": "agent_message",
  "author": "/root/worker",
  "recipient": "/root",
  "content": [
    {
      "type": "input_text",
      "text": "Message Type: FINAL_ANSWER\nTask name: /root\nSender: /root/worker\nPayload:\nNo regressions found."
    }
  ]
}
```

The model-visible form is:

```text
Message Type: FINAL_ANSWER
Task name: /root
Sender: /root/worker
Payload:
No regressions found.
```

Errored, shut down, and missing agents also use `FINAL_ANSWER`, with a
terminal-status description in the payload.

## What changed

- Render `NEW_TASK` or `MESSAGE` in
`InterAgentCommunication::to_model_input_item`, based on whether the
encrypted delivery starts a turn.
- Replace the multi-agent v2 `<subagent_notification>` completion
payload with a model-visible `FINAL_ANSWER` envelope.
- Document `Task name`, `Sender`, and `Payload` consistently in the
multi-agent developer instructions.
- Prevent local-only history projections from treating an encrypted
message's plaintext header as the complete assistant message.
- Preserve rollout-trace interaction edges when an agent message
contains both plaintext and encrypted content.

Legacy multi-agent behavior remains unchanged.

pakrym-oaiandGitHub e752f7b4ae [codex] Use expect in integration tests (#28441)
The workspace denies `clippy::expect_used` in production. Although
`clippy.toml` allows `expect` in tests, Bazel Clippy compiles
integration-test helper code in a way that does not receive that
exemption, which encouraged verbose `unwrap_or_else(... panic!(...))`
and equivalent `match`/`let else` forms.

This allows `clippy::expect_used` once at each integration-test crate
root (including aggregated suites and test-support libraries), then
replaces manual panic-based Result and Option unwraps with
`expect`/`expect_err`. Standalone `tests/*.rs` files remain their own
crate roots. Intentional assertion and unexpected-variant panics remain
unchanged, and the production `expect_used = "deny"` lint remains in
place.

The cleanup is mechanical and net-negative in line count.

- Make the filesystem path containment hierarchy generic, defaulting to
`AbsolutePathBuf` for now.
- Have clients specify `AbsolutePathBuf` or `PathUri` directly where
needed.
- Use `PathUri` throughout exec-server filesystem protocol and trait
boundaries.
- Implement `From` for conversion to path URIs and `TryFrom` for
fallible conversion to absolute paths through the generic type
hierarchy.

Owen LinandGitHub 040dafa32d feat(core): add metadata field to ResponseItem (#28355)
## Description

This PR adds an optional `metadata` field to `ResponseItem` for
Responses API calls. Only mechanical plumbing, no actual values
populated and sent yet. Turns out just adding a new field to
`ResponseItem` has quite a large blast radius already.

This change is backwards compatible because `metadata` is optional and
omitted when absent, so existing response items and rollout history
without it still deserialize and requests that do not set it keep the
same wire shape. For provider compatibility, we strip out `metadata`
before non-OpenAI Responses requests so Azure and AWS Bedrock never see
this field.

My followup PR here will actually make use of it to start storing and
passing along `turn_id`: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/28360

## What changed

- Added `ResponseItemMetadata` with optional `turn_id`, plus optional
`metadata` on Responses API item variants and inter-agent communication.
- Preserved item metadata through response-item rewrites such as
truncation, missing tool-output synthesis, compaction history
rebuilding, visible-history conversion, rollout/resume, and generated
app-server schemas/types.
- Strip item metadata from non-OpenAI Responses requests while
preserving it for OpenAI-shaped requests.
- Updated the mechanical fixture/test construction churn required by the
new optional field.

jifandGitHub 0afe559318 skills: cache orchestrator resources per thread (#28336)
## Why

Hosted orchestrator skills are read through the remote MCP resource
server. Within one thread, the same catalog or skill resource can be
requested multiple times by prompt injection and the `skills.list` /
`skills.read` tools. Re-fetching adds latency and can make those
surfaces observe different remote contents during the same thread.

This is a follow-up to #28333: orchestrator skills remain limited to
threads without a local executor, and those threads now get a stable
per-thread view of the remote skill data they use.

## What changed

- Reuse the existing per-thread orchestrator catalog snapshot for
`skills.list` and `skills.read` availability checks.
- Cache successful orchestrator resource reads by authority, package,
and resource so prompt injection and tool calls share the same contents.
- Keep the cache memory-only and bounded to 100 resources and 8 MiB per
thread.
- Leave host and executor skill reads unchanged, and do not cache failed
remote reads.

## Verification

- Extended the app-server MCP resource integration test to read the same
hosted skill resource twice and verify that the remote server receives
one read.
- The same test verifies that catalog discovery and the selected skill's
main prompt are each fetched only once per thread.

jifandGitHub 6d9df687a5 skills: hide orchestrator skills with a local executor (#28333)
## Why

App-server threads without a local executor need orchestrator-owned
skills from the hosted `codex_apps` MCP server. Threads with the local
executor already discover installed skills from the local filesystem.

After the orchestrator skill provider was enabled for every app-server
thread, local-executor threads also received the hosted skill catalog
and the `skills.list` and `skills.read` tools. This changed the existing
local behavior and could expose a second hosted copy of a skill that was
already installed locally.

## What changed

- Expose the thread's selected execution environments to extensions at
thread startup.
- Enable orchestrator skills only when the reserved local environment is
not selected.
- Apply that decision consistently to hosted skill catalog discovery,
explicit skill injection, and the `skills.list` and `skills.read` tools.

## Verification

- The existing no-executor app-server test continues to verify hosted
skill discovery, invocation, and child-resource reads.
- A new app-server test verifies that local-executor threads do not
receive hosted skill context or `skills.*` tools.

jifandGitHub b3c423e475 Discover stdio MCP servers from selected executor plugins (#27870)
## Why

**In short:** this PR discovers MCP registrations by reading a selected
plugin's `.mcp.json` on its executor. #27884 then resolves those
registrations in the shared catalog.

`thread/start.selectedCapabilityRoots` can select a plugin root owned by
an executor, and Codex can resolve that package through the executor
filesystem. MCP declarations inside the selected plugin are still
ignored.

This PR adds the source-specific discovery layer on top of the
selected-plugin catalog boundary in #27884:

```text
selected capability root
        |
        v
resolve the plugin through its executor filesystem
        |
        v
read and normalize its MCP config through the same filesystem
        |
        v
contribute stdio registrations bound to that environment ID
```

The existing MCP launcher and connection manager remain unchanged. MCP
config parsing is shared with local plugins through #27863.

## What changed

- Added an executor plugin MCP provider in the MCP extension.
- Retained only the exact filesystem capability used for package
resolution and reused it for the selected plugin's MCP config, with no
host-filesystem fallback or unrelated process/HTTP authority.
- Read either the manifest-declared MCP config or the default
`.mcp.json`; a missing default file means the plugin has no MCP servers.
- Accepted stdio servers only for this first vertical. Executor-owned
HTTP declarations are skipped with a warning until their placement
semantics are defined.
- Normalized stdio registrations with the owning environment's stable
logical ID and plugin-root working directory.
- Resolved environment-variable names on the owning executor and
rejected explicit local forwarding for non-local plugins.
- Froze discovered declarations once per active thread runtime, then
applied current managed plugin and MCP requirements when contributing
them.
- Carried the selected root ID, display name, and selection order into
the catalog contribution defined by #27884.

## Behavior and scope

There is intentionally no production behavior change yet. This PR
provides the executor provider and contribution boundary, but app-server
does not install it in this change. Existing local plugin MCP loading is
unchanged, and no MCP process is launched by this PR alone.

## Assumptions

- The selected root ID is the plugin policy identity; the manifest
display name is presentation metadata.
- An environment ID is a stable logical authority. Reconnection or
replacement under the same ID does not change ownership.
- Selected plugin packages and their manifests are trusted inputs.
- The selected package and MCP discovery snapshot remain frozen for the
active thread runtime.

## Follow-up

The next PR installs this contributor in app-server and adds an
end-to-end test proving that a selected plugin MCP tool launches on its
owning executor, can be called by the model, survives an explicit MCP
refresh, and is invisible when its root was not selected.

Resume, fork, environment removal or ID changes, dynamic catalog reload,
and executor-owned HTTP MCP placement remain separate lifecycle
decisions.

## Verification

Focused tests cover executor-only filesystem reads, missing and
malformed config, stdio filtering and normalization, managed
requirements, package attribution, and selection order. CI owns
execution of the test suite.

jifandGitHub c3a479620f Add selected-plugin precedence and attribution to the MCP catalog (#27884)
## Why

**In short:** this PR resolves already-discovered MCP registrations. It
does not read selected plugins or discover their MCP servers.

The resolved MCP catalog currently builds config and auto-discovered
plugin registrations before runtime contributors are applied. A
thread-selected plugin needs a distinct precedence tier in that same
initial resolution pass: otherwise a disabled lower-precedence winner
can leave stale name-level state behind, and the winning MCP tools
cannot be attributed to the selected package reliably.

This PR adds that catalog boundary before executor discovery is
connected.

## What changed

- Added an explicit selected-plugin registration tier between
auto-discovered plugins and explicit config.
- Collected selected-plugin contributions before the initial catalog
build, while leaving compatibility and generic extension overlays in
their existing runtime phase.
- Retained the winning plugin ID and display name directly on
plugin-owned catalog registrations.
- Derived MCP tool provenance from the winning catalog entry instead of
joining against local-only plugin summaries.
- Retained the winning selected server's tool approval policy in the
running connection manager, so a selected registration cannot inherit
approval behavior from a losing local plugin.
- Kept remembered approval session-scoped for selected plugins until
there is an authority-aware persistence contract; Codex will not write
approval back to an unrelated local plugin.
- Preserved existing name-level disabled vetoes for discovered plugins
and config, while keeping a selected package's own disabled registration
scoped to that registration.
- Preserved deterministic selection order and existing config,
compatibility, and extension precedence.

The resulting order is:

```text
auto-discovered plugin
  < selected plugin
  < explicit config
  < compatibility registration
  < extension overlay
```

## Behavior and scope

This is a catalog and provenance change only. No production host
contributes selected-plugin MCP registrations yet, so existing local MCP
behavior remains unchanged.

The stacked follow-up, #27870, installs the executor plugin provider
that produces these registrations. App-server activation remains a
separate final step.

## Verification

Focused tests cover precedence, deterministic selected-plugin conflicts,
disabled-veto behavior across catalog phases, managed requirements
before selected-plugin resolution, winning-server approval policy, and
attribution when local and selected packages share an ID or server name.
CI owns execution of the test suite.

Adam Perry @ OpenAIandGitHub 740c4f269d build: run buildifier from just fmt (#28125)
## Intent

Keep Bazel and Starlark files consistently formatted without requiring
contributors to install or version buildifier themselves.

## Implementation

- Add a SHA-256-pinned, cross-platform DotSlash manifest for buildifier
v8.5.1.
- Run buildifier from the shared `just fmt` and `just fmt-check` driver,
with Windows-safe explicit DotSlash invocation.
- Provision DotSlash in formatting CI and contributor devcontainers, and
document the source-build prerequisite.
- Apply the initial mechanical buildifier formatting baseline.

Adam Perry @ OpenAIandGitHub 968a3ac9c1 [codex] make PathUri::from_abs_path infallible (#27976)
## Why

`PathUri::from_abs_path` can fail for absolute paths that do not have a
normal `file:` URI representation, forcing filesystem call sites to
handle a conversion error even though the original path can be preserved
losslessly.

## What

Make `from_abs_path` infallible and migrate its callers. Unrepresentable
paths use `file:///%00/bad/path/<base64>`, encoding Unix bytes or
Windows UTF-16LE; `to_abs_path` validates and decodes that fallback. The
leading encoded null reserves a namespace that cannot collide with a
real Unix or Windows path, and fallback URIs remain opaque to lexical
path operations.

## Validation

Added path-URI coverage for Unix null and non-UTF-8 paths, Windows
device/verbatim and non-Unicode paths, serialization, malformed
fallbacks, opaque lexical operations, invalid native payloads, and
literal `/bad/path` collision resistance.

jifandGitHub 8f2d6416ce Support plaintext agent messages (#27830)
## Why

Multi-agent v2 `send_message` deliveries already reach the receiving
model as typed `agent_message` items with encrypted content.
Child-completion notifications are generated by Codex itself, so their
content is plaintext and previously fell back to a serialized JSON
envelope inside an assistant message.

With plaintext `input_text` supported for `agent_message`, both delivery
paths can use the same model-visible type while preserving explicit
author and recipient metadata.

## What changed

- add plaintext `input_text` support to `AgentMessageInputContent` and
regenerate the affected app-server schemas
- preserve `InterAgentCommunication` as structured mailbox input instead
of converting it to assistant text
- record delivered communications as typed `agent_message` history items
- persist a dedicated rollout item so local delivery metadata such as
`trigger_turn` remains available without leaking into the Responses
request
- reconstruct typed agent messages on resume and preserve fork-turn
truncation behavior
- remove request-time assistant-content parsing
- preserve plaintext and encrypted inter-agent deliveries in stage-one
memory inputs
- normalize and link plaintext and encrypted agent messages in rollout
traces without treating inbound messages as child results
- cover the real MultiAgent V2 child-completion path end to end with
deterministic mailbox synchronization

## Verification

pakrym-oaiandGitHub 76d8f20241 [codex] Add size to internal filesystem metadata (#27927)
## Why

`ExecutorFileSystem::get_metadata` reports file kind and timestamps but
not size. Internal callers that need to enforce a size limit therefore
have to read the complete file first, which is especially wasteful for
remote filesystems.

This adds the missing internal metadata so consumers can reject
oversized files before transferring or buffering them. The field is
named `size`, matching VS Code's `FileStat.size` filesystem convention.

## What changed

- add `size: u64` to internal `FileMetadata`
- populate it from the underlying filesystem metadata
- carry it through sandbox-helper and remote exec-server responses
- cover files, directories, symlink targets, and sandboxed reads across
local and remote filesystem implementations

The new field is intentionally not exposed through the app-server API.

Won ParkandGitHub b6baa77eec Handle standalone image generation failures as terminal items (#27920)
## Why

Standalone image generation emitted a started item but no terminal item
when the backend failed. Clients could leave the operation unresolved or
render it as successful.

## What changed

- Emit a terminal image-generation item with `status: "failed"` when
generation or editing fails.
- Skip image persistence for failed terminal items.
- Render failed image generation distinctly in TUI history.
- Preserve the status when handling live and replayed terminal items.

jifandGitHub 693082f3c4 Make MCP server contributions thread-scoped (#27670)
## Why

`selectedCapabilityRoots` belongs to one thread, but MCP contributors
previously received only the global Codex config. That left no clean way
for a selected executor capability to contribute MCP servers to its own
thread.

## What this PR does

- Gives MCP contributors a small context containing the config and, for
a running thread, its frozen host-seeded inputs.
- Uses the same thread inputs during startup, status queries, refreshes,
and skill dependency checks.
- Keeps threadless MCP operations and the existing hosted Apps behavior
unchanged.
- Adds coverage showing that two threads resolve independent
registrations and that later lifecycle mutations do not change the
frozen MCP inputs.

This PR does not discover plugin manifests, add MCP servers, or launch
anything new. It only establishes the thread-scoped registration
boundary.

## Follow-ups

- Resolve selected executor plugin roots through their owning
environment filesystem.
- Convert their stdio MCP declarations into environment-bound
registrations and add an executor MCP end-to-end test.

## Verification

- `just fmt`
- `cargo check --tests -p codex-protocol -p codex-extension-api -p
codex-mcp-extension -p codex-core -p codex-app-server`

Tests and Clippy were not run.

Adam Perry @ OpenAIandGitHub 5a56caf18c [codex] Remove async_trait from first-party code (#27475)
## Why

First-party async traits should expose their `Send` contracts explicitly
without requiring `async_trait`. This completes the migration pattern
established in #27303 and #27304.

## What changed

- Replaced the remaining first-party `async_trait` traits with native
return-position `impl Future + Send` where statically dispatched and
explicit boxed `Send` futures where object safety is required.
- Kept implementations behavior-preserving, outlining existing async
bodies into inherent methods where that keeps the diff reviewable.
- Removed all direct first-party `async-trait` dependencies and the
workspace dependency declaration.
- Added a cargo-deny policy that permits `async-trait` only through the
remaining transitive wrapper crates.
- Updated `rand` from 0.8.5 to 0.8.6 to resolve RUSTSEC-2026-0097 and
keep the full cargo-deny check passing.

## Validation

- `just test -p codex-exec-server`: 216 passed, 2 skipped.
- `just test -p codex-model-provider`: 39 passed.
- `just test -p codex-core` and `just test`: changed tests passed;

migration.

Won ParkandGitHub 19ce6394af Route image extension reads through turn environments v2 (#27498)
## Why

Image generation used `std::fs::read` for referenced image paths, which
did not support environment-backed filesystems or their sandbox context.

## What changed

- Expose optional turn environments to extension tool calls.
- Include each environment’s ID, working directory, filesystem, and
sandbox context.
- Read referenced images through the selected environment filesystem.
- Keep sandbox usage at the extension call site so extensions can choose
the appropriate access mode.
- Consolidate image request construction into one async function.
- Add coverage for successful environment reads and read failures.

## Validation

- `cargo check -p codex-image-generation-extension --tests`
- `just fmt`
- `just bazel-lock-update`
- `just bazel-lock-check`

`just test -p codex-image-generation-extension` could not complete

jifandGitHub 4a5a676499 Resolve MCP server registrations through a catalog (#27634)
## Why

MCP servers currently come from user config, local plugins,
compatibility Apps synthesis, and host extensions. Those sources were
composed by mutating a shared map, leaving registration identity,
precedence, removal, and provenance implicit in assembly order.

Before adding executor-owned MCPs, Codex needs one durable resolution
boundary above `McpConnectionManager`. This PR introduces that boundary
while preserving current server configuration, policy, and runtime
behavior. Executor-scoped registrations and explicit policy layers
remain follow-ups.

## What changed

- Add typed `McpServerRegistration` inputs and an immutable
`ResolvedMcpCatalog` in `codex-mcp`.
- Retain each registration's complete `McpServerConfig`, including its
environment binding, while recording its source and provenance.
- Preserve the existing structural precedence between plugin, config,
compatibility, and ordered extension sources.
- Resolve equal-precedence actions by contribution order; provenance IDs
are used only for diagnostics and cannot affect the winner.
- Preserve extension removals and the existing name-scoped `enabled =
false` veto.
- Report same-tier conflicts with every contender and the final catalog
outcome, including whether the winning action registers or removes the
server.
- Require MCP contributors to provide a stable diagnostic identity.
- Derive materialized server maps and plugin ownership from the resolved
catalog.

`McpConnectionManager`, transport startup, tool calls, and resource
routing continue to consume the same effective `McpServerConfig` values.

## Scope

This PR does not add new MCP capabilities or change user-visible
behavior. It does not add executor plugin discovery, thread-scoped
registrations, dynamic refresh generations, or new user/managed policy
semantics.

## Verification

- Added focused catalog coverage for source precedence, complete
configuration preservation, disabled vetoes, plugin ownership,
contribution-order tie breaking, removal outcomes, and conflict
diagnostics.
- Extended hosted Apps coverage for ordered extension removal and
Apps-disabled hosts with and without the hosted extension installed.

Adam Perry @ OpenAIandGitHub 236b50125d [codex] Load user instructions through an injected provider (#27101)
## Why

We want to remove implicit use of `$CODEX_HOME` from `codex-core` and
make embedders responsible for supplying user-level instructions. This
also ensures user instructions load when no primary environment is
selected.

## What changed

Stacked on #27415, which makes `codex exec` surface thread-scoped
runtime warnings.

- Added `UserInstructionsProvider` to `codex-extension-api`, with
absolute source attribution and recoverable loading warnings.
- Added `codex-home` with the filesystem-backed provider for
`AGENTS.override.md` and `AGENTS.md`, preserving precedence, fallback,
trimming, lossy UTF-8 handling, and the existing uncapped global
instruction size.
- Removed global instruction loading from `Config` and require
`ThreadManager` callers to inject a provider.
- Load provider instructions once for each fresh root runtime, including
runtimes without a primary environment. Running sessions retain their
snapshot, while child agents inherit the parent snapshot without
invoking the provider.
- Keep provider instructions separate while loading project `AGENTS.md`,
then assemble the model-visible instructions with the existing ordering,
source attribution, warning, and turn-context behavior.
- Wired the Codex home provider through the CLI, app server, MCP server,
core facade, and thread-manager sample.

jifandGitHub 7c2394808e skills: decouple the skills extension from core (#27413)
## Why

`ext/skills` currently depends on `codex-core` for two host concerns:
reading the concrete `Config` type and borrowing core-owned
model-context fragment types. That coupling prevents the extension from
being assembled independently above core and leaves context that belongs
to the skills feature owned by core.

This stacked PR introduces the host boundary needed for the broader
extension migration while intentionally preserving existing skills
behavior. It is stacked on #27404.

## What changed

- Adds a small public `SkillsExtensionConfig` view and makes skills
installation generic over the host config type.
- Requires the host to map its config into that view; app-server
supplies the current `Config` values.
- Moves the available-skills and selected-skill context fragment
implementations into `ext/skills`, preserving their roles, markers, and
rendered bytes.
- Removes the direct `codex-core` dependency from
`codex-skills-extension`.
- Keeps local discovery, invocation, side effects, and the
`codex-core-skills` compatibility types unchanged for later staged PRs.

## Behavior

This adds no capability and is intended to have no user-visible or
model-visible behavior change. The install API and ownership boundary
change internally; emitted skills context remains byte-for-byte
compatible.

## Validation

- Updates the skills extension integration coverage to use a host-owned
test config.
- Asserts the complete rendered catalog and selected-skill fragments,
including their roles and markers.
- `just bazel-lock-check`
- Rust tests and Clippy were not run locally per request; CI will run
them.

jifandGitHub 4322e01d2b skills: render catalog locators by authority (#27591)
## Why

Hosted skills introduced by #27388 use opaque `skill://` resource
identifiers, but the skills catalog rendered every locator as a `file`
and told the model that every skill body lived on disk. That can send
the model toward filesystem tools for a resource that must instead be
read through its owning authority.

The catalog should describe how each source is accessed without changing
the underlying discovery or invocation behavior.

## What changed

- Render host skills as `file`, executor-owned skills as `environment
resource`, orchestrator-owned skills as `orchestrator resource`, and
custom-provider skills as `custom resource`.
- Update the shared no-alias guidance to describe source locators rather
than assuming every skill is stored on the host filesystem.
- Direct orchestrator resources through `skills.list` and `skills.read`,
and explicitly tell the model not to treat `skill://` identifiers as
filesystem paths.
- Preserve the existing filesystem and alias behavior for local skills.

## Scope

This PR changes only model-visible catalog rendering and guidance. It
does not change skill discovery, selection, prompt injection, provider
routing, catalog caching or refresh behavior, resource validation, or
the `skills.*` tool contract.

## Verification

- Extended skills-extension coverage for host-file and executor-resource
labels.
- Extended the no-executor app-server flow to assert
orchestrator-resource wording and non-filesystem guidance.

jifandGitHub 7b3eb8e4bc skills: expose remote skill resource tools (#27388)
## Why

PR #27387 makes backend plugin skills discoverable and invocable without
an executor, but resources referenced by those skills still sit behind
the generic MCP resource surface. The model needs a skills-owned API
that preserves the provider authority and package boundary instead of
treating remote resources like local files.

This is stacked on #27387.

## What

- Adds one `skills` namespace with bounded `list` and `read` tools for
remote skill providers.
- Revalidates `authority + package` against the live remote catalog on
every read, then routes the opaque resource ID back through that
provider.
- Allows the backend provider to read canonical child `skill://`
resources while rejecting cross-package, non-canonical, query, fragment,
and traversal-shaped URIs.
- Caps each serialized tool result at 8 KB. Lists are paginated; reads
return an opaque continuation cursor.
- Marks the JSON output as external context so memory generation can
apply its normal suppression policy.
- Deliberately does not add `skills.search`; that waits for a bounded
plugin-service search contract.

## Tool contract

Pseudo-Python matching the wire shape:

```

There is one namespace for all remote skills, not one tool or MCP server
per skill. No resource ID is converted into a filesystem path.

## Backend dependency

`/ps/mcp` must support direct reads of child resources such as
`skill://plugin_demo/deploy/references/deploy.md`. This PR implements
and tests the Codex side of that contract; production child reads remain
dependent on the corresponding plugin-service support. Search remains
out of scope until that service exposes a bounded search/resource API.

## Validation

- Added an app-server integration test covering `skills.list` followed
by `skills.read` with no executor.
- Ran `just fmt`.
- Ran `just bazel-lock-update` and `just bazel-lock-check`.
- Did not run Rust tests or Clippy locally, per request; CI will run
them.

jifandGitHub 6754e77792 skills: cache remote catalog failures per thread (#27403)
## Summary

- cache the first remote skill catalog outcome per thread, including
failures
- preserve discovery errors as catalog warnings
- update the existing cache regression test to verify failed discovery
is attempted once

## Why

A failed or hanging `codex_apps` `resources/list` call could run once
while building initial context and immediately again while contributing
first-turn input. With the discovery timeout, an ordinary Apps turn
could wait up to 20 seconds before inference and retry again on later
turns even when no remote skill was mentioned.

Caching a warning-only empty catalog preserves graceful degradation
while preventing repeated synchronous discovery attempts.

## Testing

- `just fmt`
- Tests and Clippy not run per request; CI will validate the change.

jifandGitHub a287c5dffd skills: make backend plugin skills invocable without an executor (#27387)
## Why

#27198 made the extension-owned `codex_apps` MCP connection the hosted
plugin runtime, but its `mcp/skill` resources still bypassed the skills
extension. App-server could list and read those resources through
generic MCP APIs, but a thread with no selected environment did not
expose them in the model's skills catalog or load their `SKILL.md`
through `$skill`.

Hosted skills should stay remote while using the same typed catalog,
source authority, deduplication, bounded contextual catalog, and
selected-skill prompt injection as host and executor skills. They should
not be downloaded or exposed as ambient filesystem paths.

## What changed

- Add a session-scoped `McpResourceClient` over the replaceable MCP
connection manager so resource list/read calls follow startup and
refresh replacements.
- Add a `BackendSkillProvider` that pages `codex_apps` resources,
accepts bounded and validated `mcp/skill` entries, and reads a selected
skill's `SKILL.md` through the same MCP connection.
- Register the remote provider in app-server and include it in the
skills catalog even when a thread has no selected capability roots or
executor.
- Contribute hosted skill metadata through the bounded
`AvailableSkillsInstructions` developer-context path, exclude remote
entries from per-turn catalog injection, and classify `<skills>`
messages as contextual developer content so rollback can trim and
rebuild them correctly.

## Testing

- Extend the app-server MCP resource integration test with
`environments: []` to exercise two-page discovery, filter a
non-`mcp/skill` resource, verify the escaped developer catalog entry and
user-role `<skill>` fragment containing the fetched `SKILL.md`, and
preserve generic MCP resource reads.
- Add core event-mapping coverage that classifies `<skills>` developer
messages as contextual history.

e-provencherandGitHub 980f60b664 [codex] Preserve disabled MCP servers across runtime overlays (#27414)
## Why

Recent MCP runtime overlay changes replace same-name configured server
entries with compatibility or extension-provided configs. Those
replacement configs default to enabled, so an MCP server explicitly
configured with `enabled = false` could be initialized anyway.

The connection manager still filters disabled servers correctly, but the
configured disabled state was lost before initialization reached that
filter.

## What changed

- Remember MCP servers that are disabled in the configured view before
applying runtime fallbacks and extension overlays.
- Restore `enabled = false` for those servers after overlays, while
leaving all other overlay fields and `Remove` precedence unchanged.
- Add focused extension-backed regression coverage for a disabled
`codex_apps` server.

## Testing

- `just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-mcp-extension`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `just fix -p codex-mcp-extension`

Adam Perry @ OpenAIandGitHub 2704ecea9a [codex] Remove async_trait from ToolExecutor (#27304)
## Why

We're now [discouraging use of
`async_trait`](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/20242).

Removing use of `async_trait` from `ToolExecutor` yields a `codex_core`
debug test build speedup of ~78% (from 227.5s to 50.3s) on my machine.

Stacked on #27299, this PR applies the trait change after the handler
bodies have been outlined.

## What

Changed `ToolExecutor::handle` to return an explicit boxed
`ToolExecutorFuture` instead of using `async_trait`.

Updated ToolExecutor implementors to return `Box::pin(...)`, reexported
the future alias through `codex-tools` and `codex-extension-api`, and
removed `codex-tools` direct `async-trait` dependency.

Adam Perry @ OpenAIandGitHub db531b4a6c [codex] Outline ToolExecutor handler bodies (#27299)
## Why

We're now [discouraging use of
`async_trait`](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/20242).

Removing use of `async_trait` from `ToolExecutor` yields a `codex_core`
debug test build speedup of ~78% (from 227.5s to 50.3s) on my machine.

For ease of reviewing, this is a prefactor to extract trait method
implementations to inherent methods. This will prevent changing
indentation from creating a huge diff.

## What

Outlined existing `ToolExecutor::handle` bodies into inherent async
`handle_call` methods across core and extension tool handlers.

The trait methods still use `async_trait` and now delegate to
`self.handle_call(...).await`; handler behavior is unchanged.

jifandGitHub d2f6d23c6c Remove async-trait from extension contributors (#27383)
## Why

Extension contributors are registered behind `dyn Trait` objects, so
native `async fn`/RPITIT methods would make these traits
non-object-safe. Spell out the boxed, `Send` future contract directly so
`extension-api` no longer needs `async-trait` while retaining the
existing runtime model.

## What changed

- add a shared `ExtensionFuture` alias and use it for asynchronous
contributor methods
- migrate production and test implementations to return `Box::pin(async
move { ... })`
- remove `async-trait` dependencies where they are no longer used,
keeping it dev-only where unrelated test executors still require it

## Behavior

No behavior change is intended. Contributor futures remain boxed,
`Send`, dynamically dispatched, and lazily executed; cancellation and
callback ordering stay unchanged.

## Testing

- `just test -p codex-extension-api` (11 passed)
- affected extension crates (64 passed)
- targeted `codex-core` contributor tests (14 passed)
- `just fmt`
- `just bazel-lock-update`
- `just bazel-lock-check`

A broad local `codex-core` run compiled successfully but encountered
unrelated sandbox and missing test-binary fixture failures; CI will run
the full checks.

jifandGitHub 9cd11e9e62 Use plugin-service MCP as the hosted plugin runtime (#27198)
## Stack

- Base: #27191
- This PR is the third vertical and should be reviewed against
`jif/external-plugins-2`, not `main`.

## Why

#27191 moves the host-owned Apps MCP registration behind an extension
contributor, but deliberately preserves the existing endpoint-selection
feature while that contribution contract lands. App-server can therefore
resolve the server through extensions, yet the hosted plugin endpoint is
still selected through temporary `apps_mcp_path_override` plumbing.

That is not the long-term plugin model. A plugin can bundle skills,
connectors, MCP servers, and hooks, and those components do not all need
the same source or execution environment. In particular, an
authenticated HTTP MCP server can expose plugin capabilities directly
from a backend without an executor or an orchestrator filesystem.

This PR completes that hosted vertical. App-server's MCP extension now
owns the aggregate hosted plugin runtime at `/ps/mcp`. Connector actions
continue to arrive as MCP tools, while backend-provided skills arrive as
MCP resources and use Codex's existing resource list/read paths. No
second backend client, skill filesystem, or generic plugin activation
framework is introduced.

The backend route remains the hosted implementation. This change
replaces Codex's temporary endpoint-selection mechanism, not the service
behind the endpoint.

## What changed

### Hosted plugin runtime

The MCP extension now contributes `codex_apps` as the hosted plugin
runtime rather than as a configurable Apps endpoint:

- `https://chatgpt.com` resolves to
`https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/ps/mcp`;
- a bare custom ChatGPT base resolves to `/api/codex/ps/mcp`;
- the existing product-SKU header and ChatGPT authentication behavior
are preserved;
- executor availability is never consulted for this streamable HTTP
transport.

The same MCP connection carries both component shapes supported by the
hosted endpoint:

- connector actions are discovered and invoked as MCP tools;
- hosted skills are enumerated and read as MCP resources through the
existing `list_mcp_resources` and `read_mcp_resource` paths.

This keeps component access in the subsystem that already owns the
protocol instead of downloading backend skills into an orchestrator
filesystem or inventing a parallel hosted-skill client.

### Explicit runtime ordering

`McpManager` now resolves the reserved `codex_apps` entry in three
ordered phases:

1. install the legacy Apps fallback for compatibility;
2. apply ordered extension `Set` or `Remove` overlays;
3. apply the final ChatGPT-auth gate without synthesizing the server
again.

This ordering is important:

- an ordinary configured or plugin MCP server cannot claim the
auth-bearing `codex_apps` name;
- an extension-contributed hosted runtime wins over the fallback;
- an extension `Remove` remains authoritative;
- a host without the MCP extension retains the legacy Apps endpoint and
current local-only behavior.

The temporary `legacy_apps_mcp_loader_enabled` coordination flag is no
longer needed.

### Remove the path override

The `apps_mcp_path_override` feature and its runtime plumbing are
removed, including:

- the feature registry entry and structured feature config;
- `Config` and `McpConfig` fields;
- config schema output;
- config-lock materialization;
- URL override handling in `codex-mcp`.

Existing boolean and structured forms still deserialize as ignored
compatibility input. They are omitted from new serialized config, and
config-lock comparison normalizes the removed input so older locks
remain replayable.

### App-server coverage

App-server MCP fixtures now serve the hosted route at
`/api/codex/ps/mcp`. Existing resource-read and tool/elicitation flows
therefore exercise the extension-owned endpoint rather than succeeding
through the legacy fallback.

The stack also adds the missing `codex_chatgpt::connectors` re-export
for the manager-backed connector helper introduced in #27191.

## Compatibility

- App-server installs the extension and uses `/ps/mcp` for the hosted
runtime.
- CLI and other hosts that do not install the extension retain the
legacy Apps endpoint.
- Apps disabled or non-ChatGPT authentication removes `codex_apps` from
the effective runtime view.
- Existing local plugins, local skills, executor-selected skills,
configured MCP servers, and MCP OAuth behavior are otherwise unchanged.
- Backend plugin enablement remains account/workspace state owned by the
hosted endpoint; this PR does not add thread-local backend plugin
selection.

## Architectural fit

The stack now proves two independent runtime shapes:

1. #27184 resolves filesystem-backed skills through the executor that
owns a selected root.
2. #27191 and this PR resolve a backend-hosted HTTP MCP through an
extension with no executor.

Together they preserve the intended separation:

- selection identifies a plugin/root when explicit selection is needed;
- each component's owning extension resolves its concrete access
mechanism;
- execution stays with the runtime required by that component;
- existing skills, MCP, connector, and hook subsystems remain the
downstream consumers.

## Planned follow-ups

1. **Executor stdio MCP:** selecting an executor plugin registers a
manifest-declared stdio MCP server and executes it in the environment
that owns the plugin.
2. **Optional backend selection:** only if CCA needs thread-local
selection distinct from backend account/workspace enablement, add a
concrete backend-owned capability location and surface those selected
skills through the skills catalog.
3. **Connector metadata and hooks:** activate those plugin components
through their existing owning subsystems, with executor hooks remaining
environment-bound.
4. **Propagation and persistence:** define explicit resume, fork,
subagent, refresh, and environment-removal semantics once selected roots
have multiple real consumers.
5. **Local convergence:** migrate legacy local skill, MCP, connector,
and hook paths behind their owning extensions one vertical at a time,
then remove duplicate core managers and compatibility plumbing after
parity.

## Verification

Coverage in this change exercises:

- extension-owned `/backend-api/ps/mcp` registration without an
executor;
- preservation of the legacy endpoint in hosts without the extension;
- extension `Set` and `Remove` precedence over the legacy fallback;
- ChatGPT-auth gating for the reserved server;
- hosted MCP resource reads with and without an active thread;
- connector tool invocation and MCP elicitation through the hosted
route;
- ignored boolean and structured forms of the removed path override;
- config-lock replay compatibility for the removed feature.

marksteinbrick-oaiandGitHub 608b8b1cc6 [codex-analytics] emit goal lifecycle analytics (#27078)
## Why
- Currently, there is no analytics event for `/goal` behavior
- Existing events cannot identify goal execution or its resulting
outcome
- The original update in
[#26182](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/26182) was implemented
before `/goal` moved into `codex-goal-extension`.

## What Changed
- Adds `codex_goal_event` serialization and enrichment to
`codex-analytics`
- Emits goal events from the canonical `codex-goal-extension` mutation
and accounting paths:
  - `created` when a new logical goal is persisted
  - `usage_accounted` when cumulative goal usage is persisted
  - `status_changed` when the stored goal status changes
  - `cleared` when the goal is deleted
- Preserves causal `turn_id` for turn driven events and uses null
attribution for external or idle lifecycle events
- Changes goal deletion to return the deleted row so `cleared` retains
the stable goal ID

## Event Details

Includes standard analytics metadata along with goal specific fields:
- `goal_id`: Stable ID stored in the local SQLite goal row and shared
across the goal's events
- `event_kind`: Observed operation (see the 4 lifecycle events cited in
the above bullet)
- `goal_status`: Resulting or last stored status: `active`, `paused`,
`blocked`, `usage_limited`, etc.
  - `has_token_budget`: Indicates whether a token budget is configured
  - `turn_id`: Causal turn ID, or null when no causal turn exists
- `cumulative_tokens_accounted`: Cumulative tokens on `usage_accounted`
events; null otherwise
- `cumulative_time_accounted_seconds`: Cumulative active time on
`usage_accounted` events; null otherwise

## Validation
- `just test -p codex-analytics -p codex-state -p codex-goal-extension`
- `just test -p codex-core -E 'test(/goal/)'`
- `just test -p codex-app-server`

jifandGitHub 4ec3b8eeea Route hosted Apps MCP through extensions (#27191)
## Stack

- Base: #27184
- This PR is the second vertical and should be reviewed against
`jif/external-plugins-1`, not `main`.

## Why

CCA is moving toward a split runtime where the orchestrator may have no
filesystem or executor, but it still needs to activate remotely hosted
plugin components. HTTP MCP servers are the simplest complete example:
they need configuration and host authentication, but they do not need an
executor process.

The Apps MCP endpoint is currently synthesized by a special-purpose
loader inside the MCP runtime. That works locally, but it leaves hosted
MCP activation outside the extension model being established in #27184.
It also makes the Apps path a poor foundation for plugins whose skills,
MCP servers, connectors, and hooks may come from different sources or
execute in different places.

This PR moves that one behavior behind an extension-owned contribution
while preserving the existing local fallback. It deliberately does not
introduce a generic plugin activation framework.

## What changed

### MCP extension contribution

`codex-extension-api` gains an ordered `McpServerContributor` contract.
A contributor returns typed `Set` or `Remove` overlays for MCP server
configuration; later contributors win for the names they own.

The contract stays at the existing MCP configuration boundary.
Extensions do not create a second connection manager or transport
abstraction.

### Hosted Apps MCP extension

A new `codex-mcp-extension` contributes the reserved `codex_apps` server
from the existing Apps feature, ChatGPT base URL, path override, and
product SKU configuration.

When `apps_mcp_path_override` is enabled for `https://chatgpt.com`, the
resulting streamable HTTP endpoint is
`https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/ps/mcp`. The existing ChatGPT-auth gate
remains authoritative, so this server can run in an orchestrator-only
process without being exposed for API-key sessions.

### One resolved runtime view

`McpManager` now distinguishes three views:

- **configured:** config- and plugin-backed servers before extension
overlays;
- **runtime:** configured servers plus host-installed extension
contributions;
- **effective:** runtime servers after auth gating and compatibility
built-ins.

App-server installs the hosted MCP extension and uses the runtime view
for thread startup, refresh, status, threadless resource reads,
connector discovery, and MCP OAuth lookup. This keeps
`mcpServer/oauth/login` consistent with the servers exposed by the other
MCP APIs. The hosted Apps server itself continues to use existing
ChatGPT host authentication rather than MCP OAuth.

## Compatibility

Hosts that do not install the MCP extension retain the existing Apps MCP
synthesis path. This preserves current local-only, CLI, and
standalone-host behavior while app-server exercises the extension path.

Disabling Apps removes the reserved `codex_apps` entry, and losing
ChatGPT auth removes it from the effective runtime view. Executor
availability is not consulted for this HTTP transport.

## Follow-ups

The next vertical will resolve a manifest-declared stdio MCP server from
an executor-selected plugin root and execute it in the environment that
owns that root. Later verticals can add backend-owned skills, connector
metadata, hooks, durable selection semantics, and incremental local
convergence without changing the component-specific runtime boundaries
introduced here.

## Verification

Focused coverage was added for:

- contributing the hosted Apps MCP at `/backend-api/ps/mcp` without an
executor;
- requiring ChatGPT auth in the effective runtime view;
- removing a reserved configured Apps server when the Apps feature is
disabled.

`cargo check -p codex-app-server -p codex-mcp-extension -p
codex-extension-api -p codex-mcp` passed. Tests and Clippy were not run
locally under the current development instruction; CI provides the full
validation pass.
