Won Park 57f337a8e9 Route standalone image generation through host finalization md (#25176 )

## Why

Standalone image-generation extensions emitted turn items through the
low-level event path, bypassing host-owned finalization such as image
persistence and contributor processing. At the same time, the
generated-image save-path hint must remain visible to the model through
the extension tool's `FunctionCallOutput`, rather than the legacy
built-in developer-message path.

## What changed

- Extended `ExtensionTurnItem` to support image-generation items while
keeping the extension-facing emitter API limited to `emit_started` and
`emit_completed`.
- Routed extension completion through core `finalize_turn_item`, so
standalone image-generation items receive host-owned processing and
persisted `saved_path` values before publication.
- Kept legacy built-in image generation on its existing
developer-message hint path, while standalone image generation returns
its deterministic saved-path hint in `FunctionCallOutput`.
- Shared the image artifact path and output-hint formatting used by core
and the image-generation extension.
- Passed thread identity through extension tool calls so standalone
image generation can construct the same intended artifact path as core.
- Added an app-server integration test covering real standalone image
generation, saved artifact publication, model-visible output hint
wiring, and absence of the legacy developer-message hint.

## Validation

- `just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-image-generation-extension`
- `just test -p codex-web-search-extension`
- `just test -p codex-goal-extension`
- `just test -p codex-memories-extension`
- Targeted `codex-core` tests for image save history, extension
completion finalization, and contributor execution
- `just test -p codex-app-server
standalone_image_generation_returns_saved_path_hint_to_model`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `just fix -p codex-image-generation-extension`
- `just bazel-lock-update`
- `just bazel-lock-check`

codex-tools

codex-tools is the shared support crate for building, adapting, and executing model-visible tools outside codex-core.

Today this crate owns the host-facing tool models and helpers that no longer need to live in core/src/tools/spec.rs or core/src/client_common.rs:

aggregate host models such as ToolSpec, ConfiguredToolSpec, LoadableToolSpec, ResponsesApiNamespace, and ResponsesApiNamespaceTool
host discovery models used while assembling tool sets, including discoverable-tool models and request-plugin-install helpers
host adapters such as schema sanitization, MCP/dynamic conversion, code-mode augmentation, and image-detail normalization
shared executable-tool contracts such as ToolExecutor, ToolCall, and ToolOutput

That extraction is the first step in a longer migration. The goal is not to move all of core/src/tools into this crate in one shot. Instead, the plan is to peel off reusable pieces in reviewable increments while keeping compatibility-sensitive orchestration in codex-core until the surrounding boundaries are ready.

Vision

Over time, this crate should hold host-side tool machinery that is shared by multiple consumers, for example:

host-visible aggregate tool models
tool-set planning and discovery helpers
MCP and dynamic-tool adaptation into Responses API shapes
code-mode compatibility shims that do not depend on codex-core
other narrowly scoped host utilities that multiple crates need

The corresponding non-goals are just as important:

do not move codex-core orchestration here prematurely
do not pull Session / TurnContext / approval flow / runtime execution logic into this crate unless those dependencies have first been split into stable shared interfaces
do not turn this crate into a grab-bag for unrelated helper code

Migration approach

The expected migration shape is:

Keep extension-owned executable-tool authoring in codex-extension-api.
Move host-side planning/adaptation helpers here when they no longer need to stay coupled to codex-core.
Leave compatibility-sensitive adapters in codex-core while downstream call sites are updated.
Only extract higher-level host infrastructure after the crate boundaries are clear and independently testable.

Crate conventions

This crate should start with stricter structure than core/src/tools so it stays easy to grow:

src/lib.rs should remain exports-only.
Business logic should live in named module files such as foo.rs.
Unit tests for foo.rs should live in a sibling foo_tests.rs.
The implementation file should wire tests with:

#[cfg(test)]
#[path = "foo_tests.rs"]
mod tests;

If this crate starts accumulating code that needs runtime state from codex-core, that is a sign to revisit the extraction boundary before adding more here.
