## Why
Extension lifecycle hooks sit on the host/extension boundary, but the
current trait surface only allows synchronous callbacks. That forces
extensions that need to seed, rehydrate, observe, or flush
extension-owned state during thread and turn transitions to either block
inside the callback or move async work into separate host plumbing.
This PR makes those lifecycle callbacks awaitable so extension
implementations can perform async work directly at the lifecycle point
where the host already has the relevant session, thread, or turn stores
available.
## What changed
- Makes `ThreadLifecycleContributor` and `TurnLifecycleContributor`
async in `codex-extension-api`.
- Awaits thread start/resume/stop and turn start/stop/abort lifecycle
callbacks from `codex-core`.
- Updates the guardian and memories extensions to implement the async
lifecycle trait surface.
- Updates the existing lifecycle tests to use async contributor
implementations.
- Adds `async-trait` to the crates that now expose or implement these
async object-safe lifecycle traits.
## Testing
- Existing `codex-core` lifecycle tests were updated to cover async
implementations for thread stop and turn abort ordering.
## Why
Extension tools were split across two public runtime contracts:
`codex-tool-api` exposed `ToolBundle` plus its own call/spec/error
types, while core native tools used `codex_tools::ToolExecutor`. That
made contributed tool specs and execution behavior easy to drift apart
and added another crate boundary for what should be one executable-tool
seam.
This PR makes `ToolExecutor` the single runtime contract and keeps
extension-specific pinning in `codex-extension-api`.
## Remaining todo
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22369/changes#diff-b935ea8245c3ce568a30cff660175fa6390b66b872ae409e1e2e965738250741R5
Either generic `Invocation` or sub-extract the `ToolCall` and clean
`ToolInvocation`
## What changed
- Removed the `codex-tool-api` workspace crate and its dependencies from
core and `codex-extension-api`.
- Made `codex_tools::ToolExecutor` object-safe with `async_trait` so
extension contributors can return a dyn executor.
- Added the extension-facing aliases under
`ext/extension-api/src/contributors/tools.rs`, including
`ExtensionToolExecutor = dyn ToolExecutor<ToolCall, Output =
ExtensionToolOutput>`.
- Changed `ToolContributor::tools` to return extension executors
directly instead of `ToolBundle`s.
- Updated core’s extension tool handler/registry/router path to adapt
those extension executors into the existing native `ToolInvocation`
runtime path.
- Added focused coverage for extension tools being registered,
model-visible, dispatchable, and not replacing built-in tools.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-extension-api`
## Why
This is the next narrow step toward moving concrete tool families out of
core. After #22138 introduced `codex-tool-api`, we still needed a real
end-to-end seam that lets an extension own an executable tool definition
once and have core install it without the temporary `extension-api`
wrapper or a dependency on `codex-tools`.
`codex-tool-api` is the small extension-facing execution contract, while
`codex-tools` still has a different job: host-side shared tool metadata
and planning logic that is not “run this contributed tool”, like spec
shaping, namespaces, discovery, code-mode augmentation, and
MCP/dynamic-to-Responses API conversion
## What changed
- Moved the shared leaf tool-spec and JSON Schema types into
`codex-tool-api`, so the executable contract now lives with
[`ToolBundle`](c538758095/codex-rs/tool-api/src/bundle.rs (L19-L70)).
- Replaced the temporary extension-side tool wrapper with direct
`ToolBundle` use in `codex-extension-api`.
- Taught core to collect contributed bundles, include them in spec
planning, register them through
[`ToolRegistryBuilder::register_tool_bundle`](c538758095/codex-rs/core/src/tools/registry.rs (L653-L667)),
and dispatch them through the existing router/runtime path.
- Added focused coverage for contributed tools becoming model-visible
and dispatchable, plus spec-planning coverage for contributed function
and freeform tools.
## Verification
- Added `extension_tool_bundles_are_model_visible_and_dispatchable` in
`core/src/tools/router_tests.rs`.
- Added spec-plan coverage in `core/src/tools/spec_plan_tests.rs` for
contributed extension bundles.

- Follow-up to #22138
## Why
`codex-core` still owns a growing amount of product-specific behavior.
This PR starts the extraction path by introducing a small, typed
first-party extension seam: features can install the contribution
families they actually own, while the host keeps lifecycle and state
ownership instead of pushing a broad service locator into the API.
See the `examples/` for illustration
## Known limitations
* Tool contract definition will be shared with core
* Fragments must be extracted
* Missing some contributors
