iceweasel-oai 18fe1d9fe3 [codex] Preserve proxy state for filesystem sandbox helpers (#29671)
## Why

Filesystem helpers intentionally run with a minimal environment that
excludes proxy variables. After filesystem operations started using the
Windows sandbox wrapper, the wrapper derived an empty proxy
configuration from that helper environment and compared it with the
persistent sandbox setup marker. When the marker contained proxy ports,
every filesystem operation appeared to require a firewall update, which
could launch elevated setup, show a UAC or loader dialog, and fail
operations such as `apply_patch` with error 1223.

Filesystem helpers do not use network access, so they should preserve
the proxy/firewall state established by normal sandboxed process
launches.

## What changed

- Add an explicit Windows sandbox proxy-settings mode for reconciling or
preserving persistent proxy state.
- Use preserve mode for filesystem helpers while normal process launches
continue to reconcile proxy settings from their environment.
- Carry the selected proxy state consistently through setup validation,
elevated setup, and non-elevated ACL refreshes.
- Cover wrapper argument propagation and marker-derived proxy
preservation.

## Validation

- `cargo build -p codex-cli --bin codex`
- `just test -p codex-windows-sandbox
preserving_proxy_settings_uses_the_existing_marker`
- `just test -p codex-windows-sandbox windows_wrapper_args_round_trip`
- `just test -p codex-windows-sandbox
setup_request_prefers_explicit_proxy_settings`
- `just test -p codex-sandboxing transform_for_direct_spawn_windows`
- `just test -p codex-exec-server fs_sandbox::tests`
- Ran the same sandboxed `fs/writeFile` reproduction against published
`0.142.0-alpha.6` and the new CLI. The published CLI launched elevated
setup and failed with `ShellExecuteExW ... 1223`; the new CLI completed
without elevation.

Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.

Codex CLI splash


If you want Codex in your code editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), install in your IDE.
If you want the desktop app experience, run codex app or visit the Codex App page.
If you are looking for the cloud-based agent from OpenAI, Codex Web, go to chatgpt.com/codex.


Quickstart

Installing and running Codex CLI

Run the following on Mac or Linux to install Codex CLI:

curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | sh

Run the following on Windows to install Codex CLI:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex"

Codex CLI can also be installed via the following package managers:

# Install using npm
npm install -g @openai/codex
# Install using Homebrew
brew install --cask codex

Then simply run codex to get started.

You can also go to the latest GitHub Release and download the appropriate binary for your platform.

Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these:

  • macOS
    • Apple Silicon/arm64: codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
    • x86_64 (older Mac hardware): codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
  • Linux
    • x86_64: codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
    • arm64: codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz

Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl), so you likely want to rename it to codex after extracting it.

Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan
