Michael Bolin 799e50412e sandboxing: materialize cwd-relative permission globs (#18867)
## Why

#18275 anchors session-scoped `:cwd` and `:project_roots` grants to the
request cwd before recording them for reuse. Relative deny glob entries
need the same treatment. Without anchoring, a stored session permission
can keep a pattern such as `**/*.env` relative, then reinterpret that
deny against a later turn cwd. That makes the persisted profile depend
on the cwd at reuse time instead of the cwd that was reviewed and
approved.

## What changed

`intersect_permission_profiles` now materializes retained
`FileSystemPath::GlobPattern` entries against the request cwd, matching
the existing materialization for cwd-sensitive special paths.

Materialized accepted grants are now deduplicated before deny retention
runs. This keeps the sticky-grant preapproval shape stable when a
repeated request is merged with the stored grant and both `:cwd = write`
and the materialized absolute cwd write are present.

The preapproval check compares against the same materialized form, so a
later request for the same cwd-relative deny glob still matches the
stored anchored grant instead of re-prompting or rejecting.

Tests cover both the storage path and the preapproval path: a
session-scoped `:cwd = write` grant with `**/*.env = none` is stored
with both the cwd write and deny glob anchored to the original request
cwd, cannot be reused from a later cwd, and remains preapproved when
re-requested from the original cwd after merging with the stored grant.

## Verification

- `cargo test -p codex-sandboxing policy_transforms`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib
relative_deny_glob_grants_remain_preapproved_after_materialization`
- `cargo clippy -p codex-sandboxing --tests -- -D
clippy::redundant_clone`
- `cargo clippy -p codex-core --lib -- -D clippy::redundant_clone`

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.

Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan
