This change moves code_mode exec session settings out of the runtime API
and into an optional first-line pragma, so instead of calling runtime
helpers like set_yield_time() or set_max_output_tokens_per_exec_call(),
the model can write // @exec: {"yield_time_ms": ...,
"max_output_tokens": ...} at the top of the freeform exec source. Rust
now parses that pragma before building the source, validates it, and
passes the values directly in the exec start message to the code-mode
broker, which applies them at session start without any worker-runtime
mutation path. The @openai/code_mode module no longer exposes those
setter functions, the docs and grammar were updated to describe the
pragma form, and the existing code_mode tests were converted to use
pragma-based configuration instead.
Summary
- make all code-mode tools accessible as globals so callers only need
`tools.<name>`
- rename text/image helpers and key globals (store, load, ALL_TOOLS,
etc.) to reflect the new shared namespace
- update the JS bridge, runners, descriptions, router, and tests to
follow the new API
Testing
- Not run (not requested)
- Update the code-mode executor, wait handler, and protocol plumbing to
use cell IDs instead of session IDs for node communication
- Switch tool metadata, wait description, and suite tests to refer to
cell IDs so user-visible messages match the new terminology
**Testing**
- Not run (not requested)
**Summary**
- disable the `code_mode_nested_tool_calls_can_run_in_parallel` test on
Windows where `exec_command` is unavailable
**Testing**
- Not run (not requested)
Summary
- pin tests to `test-gpt-5.1-codex` so code-mode suites exercise that
model explicitly
- add a regression test that ensures nested tool calls can execute in
parallel and assert on timing
- refresh `codex-rs/Cargo.lock` for the updated dependency tree (add
`codex-utils-pty`, drop `codex-otel`)
Testing
- Not run (not requested)
Summary
- expose the default yield timeout through code mode runtime so the
handler, wait tool, and protocol share the same 10s value that matches
unified exec
- document the timeout change in the tool descriptions and propagate the
value all the way into the runner metadata
- adjust Cargo.lock to keep the dependency tree in sync with the added
code mode tool dependency
Testing
- Not run (not requested)
## Summary
- start a code mode worker once per turn and let it pump nested tool
calls through a dedicated queue
- simplify code mode request/response dispatch around request ids and
generic runner-unavailable errors
- clean up the code mode process API and runner protocol plumbing
## Testing
- not run yet
## Summary
- persist the code mode runner process in the session-scoped code mode
store
- switch the runner protocol from `init` to `start` with explicit
session ids
- handle runner-side session processing without the init waiter queue
## Validation
- just fmt
- cargo check -p codex-core
- node --check codex-rs/core/src/tools/code_mode_runner.cjs
Summary
- update the code-mode handler, runner, instructions, and error text to
refer to the `exec` tool name everywhere that used to say `code_mode`
- ensure generated documentation strings and tool specs describe `exec`
and rely on the shared `PUBLIC_TOOL_NAME`
- refresh the suite tests so they invoke `exec` instead of the old name
Testing
- Not run (not requested)
Summary
- document how code-mode can import `output_text`/`output_image` and
ensure `add_content` stays compatible
- add a synthetic `@openai/code_mode` module that appends content items
and validates inputs
- cover the new behavior with integration tests for structured text and
image outputs
Testing
- Not run (not requested)
Summary
- document that `@openai/code_mode` exposes
`set_max_output_tokens_per_exec_call` and that `code_mode` truncates the
final Rust-side output when the budget is exceeded
- enforce the configured budget in the Rust tool runner, reusing
truncation helpers so text-only outputs follow the unified-exec wrapper
and mixed outputs still fit within the limit
- ensure the new behavior is covered by a code-mode integration test and
string spec update
Testing
- Not run (not requested)
Summary
- drop `McpToolOutput` in favor of `CallToolResult`, moving its helpers
to keep MCP tooling focused on the final result shape
- wire the new schema definitions through code mode, context, handlers,
and spec modules so MCP tools serialize the exact output shape expected
by the model
- extend code mode tests to cover multiple MCP call scenarios and ensure
the serialized data matches the new schema
- refresh JS runner helpers and protocol models alongside the schema
changes
Testing
- Not run (not requested)
Summary
- document output types for the various tool handlers and registry so
the API exposes richer descriptions
- update unified execution helpers and client tests to align with the
new output metadata
- clean up unused helpers across tool dispatch paths
Testing
- Not run (not requested)
**Summary**
- allow `code_mode` to pass enabled tools metadata to the runner and
expose them via `tools.js`
- import tools inside JavaScript rather than relying only on globals or
proxies for nested tool calls
- update specs, docs, and tests to exercise the new bridge and explain
the tooling changes
**Testing**
- Not run (not requested)
