Remove the remote thread-store backend and checked-in protobuf
artifacts. We've moved these into another crate that link against this
one.
Also remove the config settings for thread store backend selection,
since we'll instead pass an instantiated thread store into the core-api
crate's main entrypoint.
## Why
`session_id` and `thread_id` are separate identities after #20437, but
app-server only surfaced `sessionId` on the `thread/start`,
`thread/resume`, and `thread/fork` response envelopes. Other
thread-bearing surfaces such as `thread/list`, `thread/read`,
`thread/started`, `thread/rollback`, `thread/metadata/update`, and
`thread/unarchive` either lacked the grouping key or forced clients to
special-case those three responses.
Making `sessionId` part of the reusable `Thread` payload gives every v2
API surface one place to expose session-tree identity.
## Mental model
1. thread.sessionId lives on `Thread`
2. It is a view/runtime identity for the current live session tree, not
durable stored lineage metadata
3. When app-server has a live loaded thread, it copies the real value
from core’s session_configured.session_id
4. When it only has stored/unloaded data, it falls back to
thread.sessionId = thread.id
## What changed
- Added `sessionId` to the v2
[`Thread`](8fc9e9b4cf/codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2/thread_data.rs (L105-L109)).
- Removed the duplicate top-level `sessionId` fields from
`thread/start`, `thread/resume`, and `thread/fork`; clients should now
read `response.thread.sessionId`.
- Populated `thread.sessionId` when building live thread responses,
replaying loaded threads, and returning stored-thread summaries so the
field is present across start, resume, fork, list, read, rollback,
metadata-update, unarchive, and `thread/started` paths. See
[`load_thread_from_resume_source_or_send_internal`](8fc9e9b4cf/codex-rs/app-server/src/request_processors/thread_processor.rs (L2824-L2918))
and
[`thread_from_stored_thread`](8fc9e9b4cf/codex-rs/app-server/src/request_processors/thread_processor.rs (L3671-L3719)).
- Preserved the stored-thread fallback: if a thread has not been loaded
into a live session tree yet, `thread.sessionId` falls back to
`thread.id`; once the thread is live again, the field reports the active
session tree root.
- Regenerated the JSON/TypeScript schemas and updated the app-server
README examples to show
[`thread.sessionId`](8fc9e9b4cf/codex-rs/app-server/README.md (L306-L310))
on the thread object.
## Why
`thread/start` and `thread/resume` already return `sessionId`, but
`thread/fork` only returned the new thread. That left clients to infer
the forked thread's session identity from `thread.id`, which kept the
new `session_id` / `thread_id` split implicit at one lifecycle boundary.
Follow-up to #20437.
## What changed
- Add `sessionId` to `ThreadForkResponse`.
- Populate it from the forked session configuration.
- Regenerate the v2 JSON/TypeScript schema fixtures and update the
app-server docs/example.
- Extend the fork integration test to assert the returned `sessionId`.
## Verification
- Added coverage in `thread_fork_creates_new_thread_and_emits_started`
for the new response field.
## Summary
- make `thread_source` an explicit optional thread-level field on
`thread/start`, `thread/fork`, and returned thread payloads
- persist `thread_source` in rollout/session metadata so resumed live
threads retain the original value
- replace the old best-effort `session_source` -> `thread_source`
mapping with an explicit caller-supplied analytics classification
## Why
Before this change, analytics `thread_source` was populated by a
best-effort mapping from `session_source`. `session_source` describes
the runtime/client surface, not the actual thread-level origin, so that
projection was not accurate enough to distinguish cases such as `user`,
`subagent`, `memory_consolidation`, and future thread origins reliably.
Making `thread_source` explicit keeps one thread-level analytics field
while letting callers provide the real classification directly instead
of recovering it indirectly from `session_source`.
## Impact
For new analytics events, `thread_source` now reflects the explicit
thread-level classification supplied by the caller rather than an
inferred value derived from `session_source`. Existing protocol fields
remain optional; callers that omit `threadSource` now produce `null`
instead of a best-effort inferred value.
## Validation
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `cargo test -p codex-analytics -p codex-core -p
codex-app-server-protocol --no-run`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol
generated_ts_optional_nullable_fields_only_in_params`
- `cargo test -p codex-analytics
thread_initialized_event_serializes_expected_shape`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
resume_stopped_thread_from_rollout_preserves_thread_source`
- Route cold thread/resume and thread/fork source loading through
ThreadStore reads instead of direct rollout path operations
- Keep lookups that explicitly specify a rollout-path using the local
thread store methods but return an invalid-request error for remote
ThreadStore configurations
- Add some additional unit tests for code path coverage
## Why
`thread/fork` responses intentionally include copied history so the
caller can render the fork immediately, but `thread/started` is a
lifecycle notification. The v2 `Thread` contract says notifications
should return `turns: []`, and the fork path was reusing the response
thread directly, causing copied turns to be emitted through
`thread/started` as well.
## What Changed
- Route app-server `thread/started` notification construction through a
helper that clears `thread.turns` before sending.
- Keep `thread/fork` responses unchanged so callers still receive copied
history.
- Add persistent and ephemeral fork coverage that asserts
`thread/started` emits an empty `turns` array while the response retains
fork history.
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server`
For callers who expect to be paginating the results for the UI, they can
now call thread/resume or thread/fork with excludeturns:true so it will
not fetch any pages of turns, and instead only set up the subscription.
That call can be immediately followed by pagination requests to
thread/turns/list to fetch pages of turns according to the UI's current
interactions.
## Summary
- Teach app-server `thread/list` to accept either a single `cwd` or an
array of cwd filters, returning threads whose recorded session cwd
matches any requested path
- Add `useStateDbOnly` as an explicit opt-in fast path for callers that
want to answer `thread/list` from SQLite without scanning JSONL rollout
files
- Preserve backwards compatibility: by default, `thread/list` still
scans JSONL rollouts and repairs SQLite state
- Wire the new cwd array and SQLite-only options through app-server,
local/remote thread-store, rollout listing, generated TypeScript/schema
fixtures, proto output, and docs
## Test Plan
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-rollout`
- `cargo test -p codex-thread-store`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server thread_list`
- `just fmt`
- `just fix -p codex-app-server-protocol -p codex-rollout -p
codex-thread-store -p codex-app-server`
- `cargo build -p codex-cli --bin codex`
To improve performance of UI loads from the app, add two main
improvements:
1. The `thread/list` api now gets a `sortDirection` request field and a
`backwardsCursor` to the response, which lets you paginate forwards and
backwards from a window. This lets you fetch the first few items to
display immediately while you paginate to fill in history, then can
paginate "backwards" on future loads to catch up with any changes since
the last UI load without a full reload of the entire data set.
2. Added a new `thread/turns/list` api which also has sortDirection and
backwardsCursor for the same behavior as `thread/list`, allowing you the
same small-fetch for immediate display followed by background fill-in
and resync catchup.
## Problem
When a user resumed or forked a session, the TUI could render the
restored thread history immediately, but it did not receive token usage
until a later model turn emitted a fresh usage event. That left the
context/status UI blank or stale during the exact window where the user
expects resumed state to look complete. Core already reconstructed token
usage from the rollout; the missing behavior was app-server lifecycle
replay to the client that just attached.
## Mental model
Token usage has two representations. The rollout is the durable source
of historical `TokenCount` events, and the core session cache is the
in-memory snapshot reconstructed from that rollout on resume or fork.
App-server v2 clients do not read core state directly; they learn about
usage through `thread/tokenUsage/updated`. The fix keeps those roles
separate: core exposes the restored `TokenUsageInfo`, and app-server
sends one targeted notification after a successful `thread/resume` or
`thread/fork` response when that restored snapshot exists.
This notification is not a new model event. It is a replay of
already-persisted state for the client that just attached. That
distinction matters because using the normal core event path here would
risk duplicating `TokenCount` entries in the rollout and making future
resumes count historical usage twice.
## Non-goals
This change does not add a new protocol method or payload shape. It
reuses the existing v2 `thread/tokenUsage/updated` notification and the
TUI’s existing handler for that notification.
This change does not alter how token usage is computed, accumulated,
compacted, or written during turns. It only exposes the token usage that
resume and fork reconstruction already restored.
This change does not broadcast historical usage replay to every
subscribed client. The replay is intentionally scoped to the connection
that requested resume or fork so already-attached clients are not
surprised by an old usage update while they may be rendering live
activity.
## Tradeoffs
Sending the usage notification after the JSON-RPC response preserves a
clear lifecycle order: the client first receives the thread object, then
receives restored usage for that thread. The tradeoff is that usage is
still a notification rather than part of the `thread/resume` or
`thread/fork` response. That keeps the protocol shape stable and avoids
duplicating usage fields across response types, but clients must
continue listening for notifications after receiving the response.
The helper selects the latest non-in-progress turn id for the replayed
usage notification. This is conservative because restored usage belongs
to completed persisted accounting, not to newly attached in-flight work.
The fallback to the last turn preserves a stable wire payload for
unusual histories, but histories with no meaningful completed turn still
have a weak attribution story.
## Architecture
Core already seeds `Session` token state from the last persisted rollout
`TokenCount` during `InitialHistory::Resumed` and
`InitialHistory::Forked`. The new core accessor exposes the complete
`TokenUsageInfo` through `CodexThread` without giving app-server direct
session mutation authority.
App-server calls that accessor from three lifecycle paths: cold
`thread/resume`, running-thread resume/rejoin, and `thread/fork`. In
each path, the server sends the normal response first, then calls a
shared helper that converts core usage into
`ThreadTokenUsageUpdatedNotification` and sends it only to the
requesting connection.
The tests build fake rollouts with a user turn plus a persisted token
usage event. They then exercise `thread/resume` and `thread/fork`
without starting another model turn, proving that restored usage arrives
before any next-turn token event could be produced.
## Observability
The primary debug path is the app-server JSON-RPC stream. After
`thread/resume` or `thread/fork`, a client should see the response
followed by `thread/tokenUsage/updated` when the source rollout includes
token usage. If the notification is absent, check whether the rollout
contains an `event_msg` payload of type `token_count`, whether core
reconstruction seeded `Session::token_usage_info`, and whether the
connection stayed attached long enough to receive the targeted
notification.
The notification is sent through the existing
`OutgoingMessageSender::send_server_notification_to_connections` path,
so existing app-server tracing around server notifications still
applies. Because this is a replay, not a model turn event, debugging
should start at the resume/fork handlers rather than the turn event
translation in `bespoke_event_handling`.
## Tests
The focused regression coverage is `cargo test -p codex-app-server
emits_restored_token_usage`, which covers both resume and fork. The core
reconstruction guard is `cargo test -p codex-core
record_initial_history_seeds_token_info_from_rollout`.
Formatting and lint/fix passes were run with `just fmt`, `just fix -p
codex-core`, and `just fix -p codex-app-server`. Full crate test runs
surfaced pre-existing unrelated failures in command execution and plugin
marketplace tests; the new token usage tests passed in focused runs and
within the app-server suite before the unrelated command execution
failure.
Addresses #16560
Problem: `/status` stopped showing the source thread id in forked TUI
sessions after the app-server migration.
Solution: Carry fork source ids through app-server v2 thread data and
the TUI session adapter, and update TUI fixtures so `/status` matches
the old TUI behavior.
## Why
`codex-core` was re-exporting APIs owned by sibling `codex-*` crates,
which made downstream crates depend on `codex-core` as a proxy module
instead of the actual owner crate.
Removing those forwards makes crate boundaries explicit and lets leaf
crates drop unnecessary `codex-core` dependencies. In this PR, this
reduces the dependency on `codex-core` to `codex-login` in the following
files:
```
codex-rs/backend-client/Cargo.toml
codex-rs/mcp-server/tests/common/Cargo.toml
```
## What
- Remove `codex-rs/core/src/lib.rs` re-exports for symbols owned by
`codex-login`, `codex-mcp`, `codex-rollout`, `codex-analytics`,
`codex-protocol`, `codex-shell-command`, `codex-sandboxing`,
`codex-tools`, and `codex-utils-path`.
- Delete the `default_client` forwarding shim in `codex-rs/core`.
- Update in-crate and downstream callsites to import directly from the
owning `codex-*` crate.
- Add direct Cargo dependencies where callsites now target the owner
crate, and remove `codex-core` from `codex-rs/backend-client`.
## Why
`argument-comment-lint` was green in CI even though the repo still had
many uncommented literal arguments. The main gap was target coverage:
the repo wrapper did not force Cargo to inspect test-only call sites, so
examples like the `latest_session_lookup_params(true, ...)` tests in
`codex-rs/tui_app_server/src/lib.rs` never entered the blocking CI path.
This change cleans up the existing backlog, makes the default repo lint
path cover all Cargo targets, and starts rolling that stricter CI
enforcement out on the platform where it is currently validated.
## What changed
- mechanically fixed existing `argument-comment-lint` violations across
the `codex-rs` workspace, including tests, examples, and benches
- updated `tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh` and
`tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh` so non-`--fix` runs default to
`--all-targets` unless the caller explicitly narrows the target set
- fixed both wrappers so forwarded cargo arguments after `--` are
preserved with a single separator
- documented the new default behavior in
`tools/argument-comment-lint/README.md`
- updated `rust-ci` so the macOS lint lane keeps the plain wrapper
invocation and therefore enforces `--all-targets`, while Linux and
Windows temporarily pass `-- --lib --bins`
That temporary CI split keeps the stricter all-targets check where it is
already cleaned up, while leaving room to finish the remaining Linux-
and Windows-specific target-gated cleanup before enabling
`--all-targets` on those runners. The Linux and Windows failures on the
intermediate revision were caused by the wrapper forwarding bug, not by
additional lint findings in those lanes.
## Validation
- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh`
- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --lib --bins`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --tests`
- `just argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test` in `tools/argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test -p codex-terminal-detection`
## Follow-up
- Clean up remaining Linux-only target-gated callsites, then switch the
Linux lint lane back to the plain wrapper invocation.
- Clean up remaining Windows-only target-gated callsites, then switch
the Windows lint lane back to the plain wrapper invocation.
## Summary
- add `ForkSnapshotMode` to `ThreadManager::fork_thread` so callers can
request either a committed snapshot or an interrupted snapshot
- share the model-visible `<turn_aborted>` history marker between the
live interrupt path and interrupted forks
- update the small set of direct fork callsites to pass
`ForkSnapshotMode::Committed`
Note: this enables /btw to work similarly as Esc to interrupt (hopefully
somewhat in distribution)

Refactors cloud requirements error handling to carry structured error
metadata and surfaces that metadata through JSON-RPC config-load
failures, including:
* adds typed CloudRequirementsLoadErrorCode values plus optional
statusCode
* marks thread/start, thread/resume, and thread/fork config failures
with structured cloud-requirements error data
### Summary
This PR adds first-class ephemeral support to thread/fork, bringing it
in line with thread/start. The goal is to support one-off completions on
full forked threads without persisting them as normal user-visible
threads.
### Testing
Currently we emit `thread/status/changed` with `Idle` status right
before sending `thread/started` event (which also has `Idle` status in
it).
It feels that there is no point in that as client has no way to know
prior state of the thread as it didn't exist yet, so silence these kinds
of notifications.
Exposes through the app server updated names set for a thread. This
enables other surfaces to use the core as the source of truth for thread
naming. `threadName` is gathered using the helper functions used to
interact with `session_index.jsonl`, and is hydrated in:
- `thread/list`
- `thread/read`
- `thread/resume`
- `thread/unarchive`
- `thread/rollback`
We don't do this for `thread/start` and `thread/fork`.
Motivation
- Today, a newly connected client has no direct way to determine the
current runtime status of threads from read/list responses alone.
- This forces clients to infer state from transient events, which can
lead to stale or inconsistent UI when reconnecting or attaching late.
Changes
- Add `status` to `thread/read` responses.
- Add `statuses` to `thread/list` responses.
- Emit `thread/status/changed` notifications with `threadId` and the new
status.
- Track runtime status for all loaded threads and default unknown
threads to `idle`.
- Update protocol/docs/tests/schema fixtures for the revised API.
Testing
- Validated protocol API changes with automated protocol tests and
regenerated schema/type fixtures.
- Validated app-server behavior with unit and integration test suites,
including status transitions and notifications.
- Defer rollout persistence for fresh threads (`InitialHistory::New`):
keep rollout events in memory and only materialize rollout file + state
DB row on first `EventMsg::UserMessage`.
- Keep precomputed rollout path available before materialization.
- Change `thread/start` to build thread response from live config
snapshot and optional precomputed path.
- Improve pre-materialization behavior in app-server/TUI: clearer
invalid-request errors for file-backed ops and a friendlier `/fork` “not
ready yet” UX.
- Update tests to match deferred semantics across
start/read/archive/unarchive/fork/resume/review flows.
- Improved resilience of user_shell test, which should be unrelated to
this change but must be affected by timing changes
For Reviewers:
* The primary change is in recorder.rs
* Most of the other changes were to fix up broken assumptions in
existing tests
Testing:
* Manually tested CLI
* Exercised app server paths by manually running IDE Extension with
rebuilt CLI binary
* Only user-visible change is that `/fork` in TUI generates visible
error if used prior to first turn
