viyatb-oai 3009e23644 core: expose permission profile picker metadata (#22928)
## Why

The `/permissions` picker needs a config-level way to distinguish legacy
anonymous presets from named permission-profile mode. That signal cannot
be inferred reliably in the TUI, especially for the edge case where
`default_permissions = ":workspace"` is present without a
`[permissions]` table.

## What changed

- Expose whether the merged config is explicitly in permission-profile
mode.
- Expose the configured custom permission profile IDs alongside the
built-in profile semantics.
- Add regression coverage for profile mode detection and custom profile
metadata, including the `default_permissions = ":workspace"` case.
- Update the thread-manager sample config literal to match the expanded
config shape.

## Stack

1. **This PR**: config metadata needed by downstream permission-profile
consumers.
2. [#22931](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22931): refresh active
permission profiles through runtime/session/network state.
3. [#21559](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/21559): switch
`/permissions` to the profile-aware TUI picker.

## Verification

- `cargo check -p codex-thread-manager-sample`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
default_permissions_can_select_builtin_profile_without_permissions_table`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
permissions_profiles_allow_direct_write_roots_outside_workspace_root`

npm i -g @openai/codex
or brew install --cask codex

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

Install globally with your preferred package manager:

# 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.
