Matthew Zeng a52a3b5197 [codex] Cache plugin metadata for tool suggestions (#27812)
## Why

`built_tools` runs for every sampling request, and local plugin
discovery was repeatedly rereading plugin manifests, skills, MCP
configuration, and app declarations to build the same tool-suggest
metadata.

That source-derived metadata is stable until the existing plugin manager
reloads its cache. Runtime eligibility still needs to reflect the
current install, disable, policy, app-overlap, and authentication state.

## What changed

- Add a bounded, in-memory tool-suggest metadata cache owned by
`PluginsManager`.
- Key cached metadata by plugin identity and source, while applying
authentication routing each time the metadata is projected.
- Invalidate the metadata alongside the existing loaded-plugin cache,
including its normal configuration, marketplace refresh, and
remote-installed-plugin invalidation paths.
- Guard against an in-flight load repopulating stale metadata after
invalidation.
- Keep marketplace membership and all runtime eligibility filtering live
rather than introducing a separate catalog or revision model.

## Impact

Repeated sampling requests reuse already-loaded plugin capability
metadata while retaining the existing plugin-manager lifecycle as the
single freshness boundary.

## Validation

- `just test -p codex-core-plugins` — 252 passed
- Added focused coverage for cache invalidation and authentication
reprojection.

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
