iceweasel-oai ef75171f18 Run fs helper through Windows sandbox wrapper (#28359)
## Why

This is the final PR in the Windows fs-helper sandbox stack and contains
the actual bug fix.

The exec-server filesystem helper is a direct-spawn path: it asks
`SandboxManager` for a `SandboxExecRequest`, then launches the returned
argv itself. That works on macOS and Linux because the transformed argv
is already a self-contained sandbox wrapper. On Windows, the transformed
request carried `WindowsRestrictedToken` metadata, but the direct-spawn
fs-helper runner still launched the helper argv directly.

That means Windows filesystem built-ins backed by the fs-helper could
run with the parent Codex process permissions instead of the configured
Windows sandbox. This PR makes the direct-spawn transform produce a
self-contained Windows wrapper argv before fs-helper launches it.

## What Changed

- Added `SandboxManager::transform_for_direct_spawn()` for callers that
launch the returned argv themselves.
- Wrapped Windows restricted-token direct-spawn requests with `codex.exe
--run-as-windows-sandbox` and then marked the outer request as
unsandboxed, matching the macOS/Linux wrapper argv shape.
- Updated `exec-server/src/fs_sandbox.rs` to use the direct-spawn
transform for fs-helper launches.
- Materialized the inner `codex.exe --codex-run-as-fs-helper` executable
into `.sandbox-bin` so the sandboxed user can run it.
- Carried runtime workspace roots through `FileSystemSandboxContext` as
`PathUri` values so `:workspace_roots` policies resolve correctly
without sending native client paths over exec-server JSON.
- Preserved wrapper setup identity environment needed by Windows sandbox
setup without changing the serialized inner helper environment.

## Verification

- `just bazel-lock-update`
- `just bazel-lock-check`
- `just test -p codex-sandboxing transform_for_direct_spawn_windows`
- `just test -p codex-exec-server fs_sandbox::tests`
- `just fix -p codex-windows-sandbox -p codex-sandboxing -p
codex-exec-server -p codex-core -p codex-file-system`

Local note: `just fmt` completed Rust formatting, but this workstation
still fails the non-Rust formatter phases because uv cannot open its
cache and the local buildifier/dotslash path is missing.

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.
