Ahmed Ibrahim 1f150eda8b Stabilize shell serialization tests (#13877)
## What changed
- The duration-recording fixture sleep was reduced from a large
artificial delay to `0.2s`, and the assertion floor was lowered to
`0.1s`.
- The shell tool fixtures now force `login = false` so they do not
invoke login-shell startup paths.

## Why this fixes the flake
- The old tests were paying for two kinds of noise that had nothing to
do with the feature being validated: oversized sleep time and variable
shell initialization cost.
- Login shells can pick up runner-specific startup files and incur
inconsistent startup latency.
- The test only needs to prove that we record a nontrivial duration and
preserve shell output. A shorter fixture delay plus a non-login shell
keeps that coverage while removing runner-dependent wall-clock variance.

## Scope
- Test-only change.

codex-core

This crate implements the business logic for Codex. It is designed to be used by the various Codex UIs written in Rust.

Dependencies

Note that codex-core makes some assumptions about certain helper utilities being available in the environment. Currently, this support matrix is:

macOS

Expects /usr/bin/sandbox-exec to be present.

When using the workspace-write sandbox policy, the Seatbelt profile allows writes under the configured writable roots while keeping .git (directory or pointer file), the resolved gitdir: target, and .codex read-only.

Network access and filesystem read/write roots are controlled by SandboxPolicy. Seatbelt consumes the resolved policy and enforces it.

Seatbelt also supports macOS permission-profile extensions layered on top of SandboxPolicy:

  • no extension profile provided: keeps legacy default preferences read access (user-preference-read).
  • extension profile provided with no macos_preferences grant: does not add preferences access clauses.
  • macos_preferences = "readonly": enables cfprefs read clauses and user-preference-read.
  • macos_preferences = "readwrite": includes readonly clauses plus user-preference-write and cfprefs shm write clauses.
  • macos_automation = true: enables broad Apple Events send permissions.
  • macos_automation = ["com.apple.Notes", ...]: enables Apple Events send only to listed bundle IDs.
  • macos_accessibility = true: enables com.apple.axserver mach lookup.
  • macos_calendar = true: enables com.apple.CalendarAgent mach lookup.

Linux

Expects the binary containing codex-core to run the equivalent of codex sandbox linux (legacy alias: codex debug landlock) when arg0 is codex-linux-sandbox. See the codex-arg0 crate for details.

All Platforms

Expects the binary containing codex-core to simulate the virtual apply_patch CLI when arg1 is --codex-run-as-apply-patch. See the codex-arg0 crate for details.
