Michael BolinandGitHub 956f2f439e refactor: decouple MCP policy construction from escalate server (#12555)
## Why
The current escalate path in `codex-rs/exec-server` still had policy
creation coupled to MCP details, which makes it hard to reuse the shell
execution flow outside the MCP server. This change is part of a broader
goal to split MCP-specific behavior from shared escalation execution so
other handlers (for example a future `ShellCommandHandler`) can reuse it
without depending on MCP request context types.

## What changed
- Added a new `EscalationPolicyFactory` abstraction in `mcp.rs`:
  - `crate`-relative path: `codex-rs/exec-server/src/posix/mcp.rs`
-
https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/exec-server/src/posix/mcp.rs#L87-L107
- Made `run_escalate_server` in `mcp.rs` accept a policy factory instead
of constructing `McpEscalationPolicy` directly.
-
https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/exec-server/src/posix/mcp.rs#L178-L201
- Introduced `McpEscalationPolicyFactory` that stores MCP-only state
(`RequestContext`, `preserve_program_paths`) and implements the new
trait.
-
https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/exec-server/src/posix/mcp.rs#L100-L117
- Updated `shell()` to pass a `McpEscalationPolicyFactory` instance into
`run_escalate_server`, so the server remains the MCP-specific wiring
layer.
-
https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/exec-server/src/posix/mcp.rs#L163-L170

## Verification
- Build and test execution was not re-run in this pass; changes are
limited to `mcp.rs` and preserve the existing escalation flow semantics
by only extracting policy construction behind a factory.
