## Why
This is the next stacked step after deleting the tool-handler kind
indirection. Specs should come from the registered handlers themselves
so registry construction has a single source of truth for handler
behavior and exposed tool definitions.
## What changed
- Added `ToolHandler::spec()` plus handler-provided parallel/code-mode
metadata, and made `ToolRegistryBuilder::register_handler` automatically
collect specs from registered handlers.
- Moved builtin tool spec construction into the corresponding handlers
and their adjacent `_spec` modules, including shell, unified exec, apply
patch, view image, request plugin install, tool search, MCP resource,
goals, planning, permissions, agent jobs, and multi-agent tools.
- Reworked configurable handlers to receive their tool-building options
through constructors, with non-optional handler options where the
handler is always spec-backed. Shell fallback handlers keep an explicit
no-spec mode because they are also registered as hidden dispatch
aliases.
- Kept `CodeModeExecuteHandler` on the explicit configured wrapper so
the code-mode exec spec can still be built from the nested registry.

## Summary
This PR removes the synthetic `HashMap<String, ToolInfo>` keys from MCP
tool discovery. `McpConnectionManager::list_all_tools()` now returns
normalized `Vec<ToolInfo>`, and downstream code derives identity from
`ToolInfo::canonical_tool_name()`.
The motivation is to keep model-visible tool identity on
`ToolName`/`ToolInfo` instead of parallel string map keys, so future
namespace changes do not have to preserve otherwise-unused lookup keys.
## Changes
- Rename the MCP normalization path from `qualify_tools` to
`normalize_tools_for_model` and return tool values directly.
- Flow MCP tool lists through connectors, plugin injection, router/spec
building, code mode, and tool search as vectors/slices.
- Keep direct/deferred subtraction local to `mcp_tool_exposure`, using
`ToolName` values.
- Update tests to compare `ToolName` instances where MCP identity
matters.

## Why
Follow-up to #21180: turn diffs are operation-backed now, but a failed
`apply_patch` can still leave exact filesystem mutations behind. For
example, a move can write the destination file before failing to remove
the source. Treating the whole call as unknowable then drops a change
that Codex actually knows happened, so the emitted turn diff can drift
from the workspace.
## What changed
-
[`apply-patch`](f55724e027/codex-rs/apply-patch/src/lib.rs (L248-L345))
now returns `ApplyPatchFailure` with the exact committed prefix
accumulated before an error. If a write failure may already have mutated
the target, the delta is marked inexact instead of being reused blindly.
- Move handling now records the destination write before attempting
source removal, so a partially failed move can still report the
destination file that definitely landed
([code](f55724e027/codex-rs/apply-patch/src/lib.rs (L463-L521))).
-
[`ApplyPatchRuntime`](f55724e027/codex-rs/core/src/tools/runtimes/apply_patch.rs (L49-L67))
now accumulates committed deltas across attempts and forwards them even
when the visible tool result is failed or sandbox-denied ([runtime
path](f55724e027/codex-rs/core/src/tools/runtimes/apply_patch.rs (L223-L250)),
[event
path](f55724e027/codex-rs/core/src/tools/events.rs (L215-L225))).
- `TurnDiffTracker` now consumes committed exact deltas rather than only
fully successful patches; exact-empty failures leave the aggregate
unchanged, while inexact deltas still invalidate it.
## Verification
- Added a regression test covering a failed move that still emits the
committed destination diff:
[`apply_patch_failed_move_preserves_committed_destination_diff`](f55724e027/codex-rs/core/tests/suite/apply_patch_cli.rs (L1517-L1586)).
- Kept explicit coverage that an inexact delta clears the aggregate
instead of publishing a guessed diff:
[`apply_patch_clears_aggregated_diff_after_inexact_delta`](f55724e027/codex-rs/core/tests/suite/apply_patch_cli.rs (L1589-L1655)).

## Summary
- replace filesystem-based turn diff tracking with an operation-backed
accumulator
- preserve enough verified apply_patch state to render move-overwrite
cases correctly
- keep the turn/diff/updated contract intact while removing remote-only
turn-diff test skips
This takes the assumption that no 3P services rely on the output format
of `apply_patch`

## DISCLAIMER
This is experimental and no production service must rely on this
## Why
Built-in MCPs are product-owned runtime capabilities, but they were
previously flattened into the same config-backed stdio path as
user-configured servers. That made them depend on a hidden `codex
builtin-mcp` re-exec path, exposed them through config-oriented CLI
flows, and erased distinctions the runtime needs to preserve—most
notably whether an MCP call should count as external context for
memory-mode pollution.
## What changed
- Model product-owned built-ins separately from config-backed MCP
servers via `BuiltinMcpServer` and `EffectiveMcpServer`.
- Launch built-ins in process through a reusable async transport instead
of the hidden `builtin-mcp` stdio subcommand.
- Keep config-oriented CLI operations such as `codex mcp
list/get/login/logout` scoped to configured servers, while merging
built-ins only into the effective runtime server set.
- Retain server metadata after launch so parallel-tool support and
context classification come from the live server set; built-in
`memories` is now classified as local Codex state rather than external
context.
## Test plan
- `cargo test -p codex-mcp`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test suite

## Why
Reverts #20689 to restore the previous optional state DB plumbing. The
conflict resolution keeps the newer installation ID and session/thread
identity changes that landed after #20689, while removing the mandatory
state DB and agent graph store dependency from ThreadManager
construction.
## What changed
- Restored `Option<StateDbHandle>` through app-server, MCP server,
prompt debug, and test entry points.
- Removed the `codex-core` dependency on `codex-agent-graph-store` and
reverted descendant lookup back to the existing state DB path when
available.
- Kept newer `installation_id` forwarding by passing it beside the
optional DB handle.
- Kept local thread-name updates working when the optional state DB
handle is absent.
## Validation
- `git diff --check`
- `cargo test -p codex-thread-store`
- `cargo test -p codex-state -p codex-rollout -p

- Attempted `env CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 cargo test -p codex-core -p

ICE while compiling `v8 v146.4.0` with `rustc 1.93.0 (254b59607
2026-01-19)` on `aarch64-apple-darwin`.
## Why
The spec split in the parent PR still left an intermediate registry plan
that recorded `ToolHandlerKind` values and translated them into concrete
handlers later. That kept tool registration dependent on static enum
bookkeeping instead of registering handlers from the same code that
assembles their specs.
## What Changed
- Make `build_tool_registry_builder` register concrete handlers directly
while adding specs.
- Add small `ToolRegistryBuilder` helpers for spec augmentation and
nested code-mode inspection.
- Remove `ToolHandlerKind`, `ToolHandlerSpec`, and `ToolRegistryPlan`.
- Update spec-plan tests to assert against the built `ToolRegistry`
instead of static handler descriptors.
## Validation
- `cargo check -p codex-core`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::spec_plan::tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::spec::tests`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
## Why
This is the first mechanical slice of moving tool spec ownership toward
the handlers. `codex-tools` should keep shared primitives and conversion
helpers, while builtin tool specs and registration planning live in
`codex-core` with the handlers that own those tools.
Keeping this PR to relocation and import updates isolates the copy/move
review from the later logic change that wires specs through registered
handlers.
## What changed
- Moved builtin tool spec constructors from `codex-rs/tools/src` into
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers/*_spec.rs` or nearby core tool
modules.
- Moved the registry planning code into
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec_plan.rs` and its associated types/tests
into core.
- Kept shared primitives in `codex-tools`, including `ToolSpec`,
schema/types, discovery/config primitives, dynamic/MCP conversion
helpers, and code-mode collection helpers.
- Updated handlers that referenced moved argument types or tool-name
constants to use the core spec modules.
- Moved spec tests next to the moved spec modules.
## Verification
- `cargo check -p codex-tools`
- `cargo check -p codex-core`
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core _spec::tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::spec_plan::tests`
- `just fix -p codex-tools`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
Note: I also tried the broader `cargo test -p codex-core tools::`; it
reached the moved spec-plan/spec tests successfully, then aborted with a
stack overflow in
`tools::handlers::multi_agents::tests::tool_handlers_cascade_close_and_resume_and_keep_explicitly_closed_subtrees_closed`,
which is outside this spec relocation.
## Why
Several tool handler modules still bundled multiple `ToolHandler`
implementations in one file. That made the handler directory harder to
navigate and made otherwise local handler edits land in large shared
modules.
## What
- Split grouped tool handlers into one handler file each for agent jobs,
goals, MCP resources, shell tools, and unified exec.
- Kept shared parsing, payload, and runtime helpers in the existing
parent modules, with re-exports preserving the existing handler import
paths.
- Updated the shell handler tests to construct `ShellCommandHandler`
through the existing `ShellCommandBackendConfig` conversion now that the
backend detail lives with the shell-command handler.
## Validation
- `cargo check -p codex-core`
- `cargo clippy -p codex-core --lib -- -D warnings`
- `git diff --check -- codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers`
Targeted `codex-core` handler tests did not run locally because
`core_test_support` currently fails to compile before reaching these
tests due to an unresolved `similar` import.
## Summary
- resolve or inject the installation ID before core startup and pass it
through `ThreadManager`, `CodexSpawnArgs`, and `Session` as a plain
`String`
- keep child sessions on the parent installation ID instead of
rediscovering it inside core
- propagate installation ID startup failures in `mcp-server` instead of
panicking
## Why
Core was still touching the filesystem on the session startup path to
discover `installation_id`. This moves that work to the outer host
boundary so core no longer depends on `codex_home` reads during session
construction.

## Why
We want the agent graph store to be passed down the stack as a real
dependency, the same way we already treat the thread store.
This will let us inject the agent graph store as a real dependency and
support implementations other than the local SQLite-backed one. Right
now most code instantiates a state DB and an agent graph store
just-in-time. Ideally, we would not depend on the state DB directly but
only read through the higher-level interfaces.
This change makes the dependency boundaries explicit and moves state DB
initialization to process bootstrap instead of hiding it inside local
store implementations.
## What changed
- `ThreadManager` now requires a `StateDbHandle` and an
`AgentGraphStore` at construction time instead of treating them as
optional internals.
- The local store constructors no longer lazily initialize SQLite.
Callers now initialize the state DB once per process and use that shared
handle to build:
- `LocalThreadStore`
- `LocalAgentGraphStore`
- App bootstraps (`app-server`, `mcp-server`, `prompt_debug`, and the
thread-manager sample) now initialize the state DB up front and inject
the resulting handle down the stack.
- `app-server` now consistently uses its process-scoped state DB handle
instead of reopening SQLite or trying to recover it from loaded threads.
- Device-key storage now reuses the shared state DB handle instead of
maintaining its own lazy opener.
- The thread archive / descendant traversal paths now use the injected
`AgentGraphStore` instead of reaching through local
thread-store-specific state.

- `cargo test -p codex-app-server
thread_archive_archives_spawned_descendants -- --nocapture`
## Why
Tool registration used to bind a tool name to a handler externally,
which left ownership split between the registry plan and the handler
implementation. Some built-in handlers also multiplexed multiple in-core
tools by switching on the invoked tool name internally.
This moves the registry identity onto the handler itself and makes
built-in multi-tool areas use separate concrete handlers, so each
registered handler instance owns exactly one tool name and one dispatch
path.
## What Changed
- Added `ToolHandler::tool_name()` and changed
`ToolRegistryBuilder::register_handler` to derive the registry key from
the handler.
- Split built-in multiplexed handlers into concrete per-tool handlers
for unified exec, shell/local shell/container exec, MCP resources, goal
tools, and agent job tools.
- Kept name-carrying handler instances only where the runtime target is
inherently external or dynamic, such as MCP tools, dynamic tools, and
unavailable placeholders.
- Updated `ToolHandlerKind` and registry-plan construction so plan
entries map directly to concrete handler registrations.

# Why
We want shared hook trust that both the app and the TUI can build on,
but the metadata is only useful if runtime behavior agrees with it. This
PR adds a single backend trust model for hooks so unmanaged hooks cannot
run until the current definition has been reviewed, while managed hooks
remain runnable and non-configurable.
# What
- persist `trusted_hash` alongside hook state in `config.toml`
- expose `currentHash` and derived `trustStatus` through `hooks/list`
- derive trust from normalized hook definitions so equivalent hooks from
`config.toml` and `hooks.json` share the same trust identity
- gate unmanaged hooks on trust before they enter the runnable handler
set
# Reviewer Notes
- key file to review is `codex-rs/hooks/src/engine/discovery.rs`
- the only **core** change is schema related
## Why
When a turn exposes multiple selected environments, shell-style tools
need a model-facing way to identify the intended target environment and
handlers need to resolve that target before parsing cwd-relative
permission fields or launching processes.
This PR scopes that rollout to process tools. Filesystem-oriented tools
such as `apply_patch`, `view_image`, and `list_dir` are intentionally
left for follow-up slices.
## What Changed
- Adds an `include_environment_id` option to shell-style tool schema
builders.
- Exposes optional `environment_id` on `shell`, `shell_command`, and
`exec_command` only when `ToolEnvironmentMode::Multiple` is active.
- Adds a shared handler helper that parses `environment_id` and
`workdir` from JSON function-call arguments and returns the selected
`Environment` plus effective absolute cwd.
- Uses that helper in `shell`, `shell_command`, and `exec_command`
handling so process execution uses the selected environment filesystem
and cwd.
- Changes `ExecCommandRequest` to carry a required resolved `cwd`,
removing the process-manager fallback to the primary turn cwd for new
exec commands.
- Leaves `write_stdin` unchanged because it targets an existing process
id, not a new environment.
## Testing
- Added unit coverage for process-tool schema exposure, selected
environment resolution, primary fallback, no-environment handling,
unknown environment ids, and resolving cwd-relative permission paths
against the selected environment cwd.
- Added a remote-suite e2e coverage case for `exec_command` routing
across explicit zero environments, one local environment, and
local+remote environments.
- Ran `just fmt` and `git diff --check`.

# Why
`PreToolUse` already exposes `hookSpecificOutput.additionalContext` in
the generated hook schema, but the runtime still rejected it as
unsupported. That leaves `PreToolUse` out of step with the other
context-injecting hooks and prevents hook authors from attaching
model-visible guidance to a pending tool call before it runs.
# What
- Parse `PreToolUse.additionalContext` and carry it through the hook
event pipeline.
- Record `PreToolUse` context at the hook boundary so successful context
is preserved for both allowed and blocked calls without widening the
tool registry surface.
- Preserve existing deny behavior when context is combined with either
`permissionDecision: "deny"` or the legacy `decision: "block"` shape.
## Why
`list_dir` still carries a full spec/handler/test path, but nothing in
the current model catalog advertises it via
`experimental_supported_tools`. That leaves us maintaining an
environment-backed tool surface that is effectively unused.
## What changed
- delete the `list_dir` handler and its tests from `codex-core`
- remove the `list_dir` spec builder, handler kind, and registry wiring
from `codex-tools`
- clean up the remaining internal README and registry tests so they no
longer mention the removed tool
## Why
Tool families already disagree on what their existing `duration` fields
mean, so lifecycle latency should live on the shared item envelope
instead of being inferred from per-tool execution fields. Carrying that
envelope through app-server notifications gives downstream consumers one
reusable timing signal without pretending every tool has the same
execution semantics.
## What changed
- Adds `started_at_ms` to core `ItemStartedEvent` values and
`completed_at_ms` to core `ItemCompletedEvent` values.
- Populates those timestamps in the shared session lifecycle emitters,
so protocol-native items get timing without each producer tracking its
own clock state.
- Exposes `startedAtMs` on app-server `item/started` notifications and
`completedAtMs` on `item/completed` notifications.
- Maps the lifecycle timestamps through the app-server boundary while
leaving legacy-converted notifications nullable when no lifecycle
timestamp exists.
- Regenerates the app-server JSON schema and TypeScript fixtures for the
notification-envelope change and updates downstream fixtures that
construct those notifications directly.
- Extends the existing web-search and image-generation integration flows
to assert the new lifecycle timestamps on the native item events.

## Why
MCP servers can provide `instructions` that explain what their tools are
for. Directly exposed MCP namespaces already use those instructions when
a connector description is not available, but deferred `tool_search`
results did not preserve that fallback. The direct path falls back from
connector metadata to server instructions, while the deferred path only
carried `connector_description` and otherwise fell back to generic
namespace text.
That meant a plain MCP server could provide useful model-facing guidance
and still appear as `Tools in the X namespace.` whenever it was
discovered lazily through `tool_search`.
## What changed
- Store one model-facing `namespace_description` on `ToolInfo`, using
connector descriptions for connector-backed tools and server
instructions for plain MCP servers.
- Thread that namespace description through the `tool_search` source
list, search indexing, and returned namespace metadata.
- Add an end-to-end regression test for deferred non-app MCP search
results exposing server instructions as the namespace description.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-tools
search_tool_description_lists_each_mcp_source_once --lib`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
tool_search_uses_non_app_mcp_server_instructions_as_namespace_description`
## Why
SQLite state was still being opened from consumer paths, including lazy
`OnceCell`-backed thread-store call sites. That let one process
construct multiple state DB connections for the same Codex home, which
makes SQLite lock contention and `database is locked` failures much
easier to hit.
State DB lifetime should be chosen by main-like entrypoints and tests,
then passed through explicitly. Consumers should use the supplied
`Option<StateDbHandle>` or `StateDbHandle` and keep their existing
filesystem fallback or error behavior when no handle is available.
The startup path also needs to keep the rollout crate in charge of
SQLite state initialization. Opening `codex_state::StateRuntime`
directly bypasses rollout metadata backfill, so entrypoints should
initialize through `codex_rollout::state_db` and receive a handle only
after required rollout backfills have completed.
## What Changed
- Initialize the state DB in main-like entrypoints for CLI, TUI,
app-server, exec, MCP server, and the thread-manager sample.
- Pass `Option<StateDbHandle>` through `ThreadManager`,
`LocalThreadStore`, app-server processors, TUI app wiring, rollout
listing/recording, personality migration, shell snapshot cleanup,
session-name lookup, and memory/device-key consumers.
- Remove the lazy local state DB wrapper from the thread store so
non-test consumers use only the supplied handle or their existing
fallback path.
- Make `codex_rollout::state_db::init` the local state startup path: it
opens/migrates SQLite, runs rollout metadata backfill when needed, waits
for concurrent backfill workers up to a bounded timeout, verifies
completion, and then returns the initialized handle.
- Keep optional/non-owning SQLite helpers, such as remote TUI local
reads, as open-only paths that do not run startup backfill.
- Switch app-server startup from direct
`codex_state::StateRuntime::init` to the rollout state initializer so
app-server cannot skip rollout backfill.
- Collapse split rollout lookup/list APIs so callers use the normal
methods with an optional state handle instead of `_with_state_db`
variants.
- Restore `getConversationSummary(ThreadId)` to delegate through
`ThreadStore::read_thread` instead of a LocalThreadStore-specific
rollout path special case.
- Keep DB-backed rollout path lookup keyed on the DB row and file
existence, without imposing the filesystem filename convention on
existing DB rows.
- Verify readable DB-backed rollout paths against `session_meta.id`
before returning them, so a stale SQLite row that points at another
thread's JSONL falls back to filesystem search and read-repairs the DB
row.
- Keep `debug prompt-input` filesystem-only so a one-off debug command
does not initialize or backfill SQLite state just to print prompt input.
- Keep goal-session test Codex homes alive only in the goal-specific
helper, rather than leaking tempdirs from the shared session test
helper.
- Update tests and call sites to pass explicit state handles where DB
behavior is expected and explicit `None` where filesystem-only behavior
is intended.

`state_db::tests::try_init_times_out_waiting_for_stuck_startup_backfill`
verifies startup does not hang indefinitely on a stuck backfill lease.
-
`tests::find_thread_path_accepts_existing_state_db_path_without_canonical_filename`
verifies DB-backed lookup accepts valid existing rollout paths even when
the filename does not include the thread UUID.
-
`tests::find_thread_path_falls_back_when_db_path_points_to_another_thread`
verifies DB-backed lookup ignores a stale row whose existing path
belongs to another thread and read-repairs the row after filesystem
fallback.
Focused coverage updated in `codex-core`:
- `rollout_list_find::find_prefers_sqlite_path_by_id` now uses a
DB-preferred rollout file with matching `session_meta.id`, so it still
verifies that valid SQLite paths win without depending on stale/empty
rollout contents.
`cargo test -p codex-app-server thread_list_respects_search_term_filter
-- --test-threads=1 --nocapture` was attempted locally but timed out
waiting for the app-server test harness `initialize` response before
reaching the changed thread-list code path.
`bazel test //codex-rs/thread-store:thread-store-unit-tests
--test_output=errors` was attempted locally after the thread-store fix,
but this container failed before target analysis while fetching `v8+`
through BuildBuddy/direct GitHub. The equivalent local crate coverage,
including `cargo test -p codex-thread-store`, passes.
A plain local `cargo check -p codex-rollout -p codex-app-server --tests`
also requires system `libcap.pc` for `codex-linux-sandbox`; the
follow-up app-server check above used `CODEX_SKIP_VENDORED_BWRAP=1` in
this container.
## Why
This is a prep PR in the multi-environment process-tool stack. It
separates ownership/config cleanup from the behavior change that teaches
process tools to route by selected environment, so the follow-up PR can
focus on model-facing `environment_id` behavior.
## Stack
1. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/20646 - `EnvironmentContext`
rendering for selected environments
2. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/20669 - selected-environment
ownership and tool config prep (this PR)
3. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/20647 - process-tool
`environment_id` routing
## What Changed
- keep the resolved turn environment list wrapped in
`ResolvedTurnEnvironments` through `TurnContext` instead of unwrapping
it back to a raw `Vec`
- add `TurnContext::resolve_path_against` so cwd-relative path
resolution has one shared helper
- replace the old tool config boolean with `ToolEnvironmentMode::{None,
Single, Multiple}`
## Testing
- Tests not run locally; this prep refactor is covered by GitHub CI for
the stack.

## Why
`McpToolCall` was still an app-server item synthesized from deprecated
legacy begin/end events. Recent item migrations moved this ownership
into core `TurnItem`s, so MCP tool calls now follow the same canonical
lifecycle and leave legacy events as compatibility fanout.
Keeping the core item close to the v2 `ThreadItem::McpToolCall` shape
also avoids spreading MCP result semantics across app-server conversion
code. Core now owns whether a completed call is `completed` or `failed`,
and whether the payload is a tool result or an error.
## What changed
- Added core `TurnItem::McpToolCall` with flattened `server`, `tool`,
`arguments`, `status`, `result`, and `error` fields.
- Updated MCP tool call emitters, including MCP resource tools, to emit
`ItemStarted`/`ItemCompleted` around directly constructed core MCP
items.
- Updated app-server v2 conversion to project the core MCP item into
`ThreadItem::McpToolCall` without deriving status or splitting `Result`
locally.
- Ignored live deprecated MCP legacy fanout in app-server v2 to avoid
duplicate item notifications, while keeping thread history replay on the
legacy event path.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib mcp_tool_call`
- `cargo check -p codex-app-server`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server
mcp_tool_call_completion_notification_contains_truncated_large_result`
Tool suggest still misfires when model needs tool_search, updating the
prompts to further disambiguate it:
- [x] rename it from `tool_suggest` to `request_plugin_install`
- [x] rephrase "suggestion" to "install" in the tool descriptions.
- [x] disambiguate "the tool" vs "the plugin/connector".
Tested with the Codex App and verified it still works.
## Why
Image-view results should be represented as a core-produced turn item
instead of being reconstructed by app-server. At the same time, existing
rollout/history paths still understand the legacy `ViewImageToolCall`
event, so this keeps that event as compatibility output generated from
the new item lifecycle.
## What changed
- Added `TurnItem::ImageView` to `codex-protocol`.
- Emitted image-view item start/completion directly from the core
`view_image` handler.
- Kept `ViewImageToolCall` as a legacy event and generate it from
completed `TurnItem::ImageView` items.
- Kept `thread_history.rs` on the legacy `ViewImageToolCall` replay
path, with `ImageView` item lifecycle events ignored there.
- Updated app-server protocol conversion, rollout persistence, and
affected exhaustive event matches for the new item plus legacy fan-out
shape.

## Summary
- make selected turn environments the source of truth for session
runtime cwd and MCP runtime environment selection
- keep local/no-selection fallback behavior intact
- add coverage for duplicate selected environments, cwd resolution, and
MCP runtime environment selection
## Validation
- git diff --check
- rustfmt was run on touched Rust files during the implementation
workflow
CI should provide the full Bazel/test signal.

## Why
Apply-patch file changes are now part of the core turn item stream, so
v2 clients can consume the same first-class item lifecycle path used by
other turn items instead of relying on app-server-specific remapping
from legacy patch events.
## What changed
- Added a core `TurnItem::FileChange` carrying apply-patch changes and
completion metadata.
- Updated the apply-patch tool emitter to send `ItemStarted` /
`ItemCompleted` with the new `FileChange` item while preserving legacy
`PatchApplyBegin` / `PatchApplyEnd` fan-out.
- Updated app-server v2 conversion to render the new core item directly
and stopped `event_mapping` from remapping old patch begin/end events
into item notifications.
- Kept thread history reconstruction based on the existing old
apply-patch events for rollout compatibility.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
apply_patch_tool_executes_and_emits_patch_events`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server bespoke_event_handling`
- Build one app-server process ThreadStore from startup config and share
it with ThreadManager and CodexMessageProcessor.
- Remove per-thread/fork store reconstruction so effective thread config
cannot switch the persistence backend.
- Add params to ThreadStore create/resume for specifying thread
metadata, since otherwise the metadata from store creation would be used
(incorrectly).
## Why
Several legacy `EventMsg` variants were still emitted or mapped even
though clients either ignored them or had moved to item/lifecycle
events. `Op::Undo` had also degraded to an unavailable shim, so this
removes that dead task path instead of preserving a command that cannot
do useful work.
`McpStartupComplete`, `WebSearchBegin`, and `ImageGenerationBegin` are
intentionally kept because useful consumers still depend on them: MCP
startup completion drives readiness behavior, and the begin events let
app-server/core consumers surface in-progress web-search and
image-generation items before the final payload arrives.
## What Changed
- Removed weak legacy event variants and payloads from `codex-protocol`,
including legacy agent deltas, background events, and undo lifecycle
events.
- Kept/restored `EventMsg::McpStartupComplete`,
`EventMsg::WebSearchBegin`, and `EventMsg::ImageGenerationBegin` with
serializer and emission coverage.
- Updated core, rollout, MCP server, app-server thread history,
review/delegate filtering, and tests to rely on the useful replacement
events that remain.
- Removed `Op::Undo`, `UndoTask`, the undo test module, and stale TUI
slash-command comments.
- Stopped agent job/background progress and compaction retry notices
from emitting `BackgroundEvent` payloads.

core library tests, MCP/plugin/delegate/review/agent job tests, and MCP
startup TUI tests.
## Why
On Windows, Codex runs shell commands through a top-level
`powershell.exe -NoProfile -Command ...` wrapper. `execpolicy` was
matching that wrapper instead of the inner command, so prefix rules like
`["git", "push"]` did not fire for PowerShell-wrapped commands even
though the same normalization already happens for `bash -lc` on Unix.
This change makes the Windows shell wrapper transparent to rule matching
while preserving the existing Windows unmatched-command safelist and
dangerous-command heuristics.
## What changed
- add `parse_powershell_command_plain_commands()` in
`shell-command/src/powershell.rs` to unwrap the top-level PowerShell
`-Command` body with `extract_powershell_command()` and parse it with
the existing PowerShell AST parser
- update `core/src/exec_policy.rs` so `commands_for_exec_policy()`
treats top-level PowerShell wrappers like `bash -lc` and evaluates rules
against the parsed inner commands
- carry a small `ExecPolicyCommandOrigin` through unmatched-command
evaluation and expose `is_safe_powershell_words()` /
`is_dangerous_powershell_words()` so Windows safelist and
dangerous-command checks still work after unwrap
- add Windows-focused tests for wrapped PowerShell prompt/allow matches,
wrapper parsing, and unmatched safe/dangerous inner commands, and
re-enable the end-to-end `execpolicy_blocks_shell_invocation` test on
Windows
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-shell-command`
## Why
`item/fileChange/outputDelta` text output was only the tool's summary or
error text and not used by client surfaces.
We keep `item/fileChange/outputDelta` in the app-server protocol as a
deprecated compatibility entry, but the server no longer emits it.
## What changed
- stop the `apply_patch` runtime from emitting `ExecCommandOutputDelta`
events
- simplify `item_event_to_server_notification` so command output deltas
always map to `item/commandExecution/outputDelta`
- remove the app-server bookkeeping that tried to detect whether an
output delta belonged to a file change
- mark `item/fileChange/outputDelta` as a deprecated legacy protocol
entry in the v2 types, schema, and README
- simplify the file-change approval tests so they only wait for
completion instead of expecting output-delta notifications
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-thread-manager-sample`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol
protocol::event_mapping::tests::exec_command_output_delta_maps_to_command_execution_output_delta
-- --exact`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server
turn_start_file_change_approval_accept_for_session_persists_v2 --
--exact` *(failed before the test assertions because the wiremock
`/responses` mock received 0 requests in setup)*
## Why
Large MCP tool call outputs can make rollout JSONL files enormous. In
the session that motivated this change, the biggest JSONL records were:
- `event_msg/mcp_tool_call_end`
- `response_item/function_call_output`
both containing the same unbounded MCP payloads - just 3 MCP tool calls
that each were multi-hundred MBs 😱
This PR truncates both of those JSONL records.
## How
#### For `response_item/function_call_output`
Unified exec already bounds tool output before it is injected into
model-facing history, which also keeps the corresponding rollout
`response_item/function_call_output` records small.
MCP should follow the same pattern: truncate the model-facing tool
output at the tool-output boundary, while leaving code-mode/raw hook
consumers alone.
#### For `event_msg/mcp_tool_call_end`
`McpToolCallEnd` also needs its own bounded event copy because it is the
app-server/replay/UI event shape that backs `ThreadItem::McpToolCall`.
Unfortunately this is _not_ downstream of the `ToolOutput` trait.
## Model behavior
Model behavior is actually unchanged as a result of this PR.
Before this PR, MCP output was:
1. Converted to `FunctionCallOutput`.
2. Recorded into in-memory history.
3. Truncated by `ContextManager::record_items()` before later model
turns saw it.
After this branch, MCP output is truncated earlier, in
`McpToolOutput::response_payload()`, using the same helper. Then
`ContextManager::record_items()` sees an already-truncated output and
effectively has little/no additional work to do.
So the model should still see the same kind of truncated function-call
output. The practical difference is where truncation happens: earlier,
before rollout persistence/app-server emission can see the giant
payload.
## Verification

## Why
After `hooks/list` exposes the hook inventory, clients need a way to
persist user hook preferences, make those changes effective in
already-open sessions, and distinguish user-controllable hooks from
managed requirements without adding another bespoke app-server write
API.
## What
- Extends `hooks/list` entries with effective `enabled` state.
- Persists user-level hook state under `hooks.state.<hook-id>` so the
model can grow beyond a single boolean over time.
- Uses the existing `config/batchWrite` path for hook state updates
instead of introducing a dedicated hook write RPC.
- Refreshes live session hook engines after config writes so
already-open threads observe updated enablement without a restart.

## Reviewer Notes
The generated schema files account for much of the raw diff. The core
behavior is in:
- `hooks/src/config_rules.rs`, which resolves per-hook user state from
the config layer stack.
- `hooks/src/engine/discovery.rs`, which projects effective enablement
into `hooks/list` from source-derived managedness.
- `config/src/hook_config.rs`, which defines the new `hooks.state`
representation.
- `core/src/session/mod.rs`, which rebuilds live hook state after user
config reloads.

## Summary
- remove the Windows-specific unified-exec environment block from tool
selection
- keep `unified_exec` default-off on Windows unless the feature is
explicitly enabled
- normalize model-provided `shell_type = unified_exec` to
`shell_command` when the feature is disabled
- drop obsolete tests tied to the removed environment gate and keep the
feature-flag regression coverage
## Why
Now that the session/long-lived process backend is implemented for the
Windows sandbox, we don't need to hard disable it anymore. We will be
rolling out slowly using a feature gate.
## Impact
This allows manual Windows opt-in in CLI and app-backed flows while
preserving the existing default-off behavior for Windows users.

## Why
This bug is exposed by Guardian/auto-review approvals. With the managed
network proxy enabled, a blocked network request can be reported back
through the network approval service as an approval denial after the
command has already started. Before this change, the shell and unified
exec runtimes registered those network approval calls, but did not have
a way to observe an async proxy denial as a cancellation/failure signal
for the running process.
The result was confusing: Guardian/auto-review could correctly deny
network access, but the command path could keep running or unregister
the approval without surfacing the denial as the command failure.
## What Changed
- `NetworkApprovalService` now attaches a cancellation token to active
and deferred network approvals.
- Proxy-denial outcomes are recorded only for active registrations,
cancel the owning token, and are consumed when the approval is
finalized.
- The shell runtime combines the normal command timeout with the
network-denial cancellation token.
- Unified exec stores the deferred network approval object, terminates
tracked processes when the proxy denial arrives, and returns the denial
as a process failure while polling or completing the process.
- Tool orchestration passes the active network approval cancellation
token into the sandbox attempt and preserves deferred approval errors
instead of silently unregistering them.
- App-server `command/exec` now handles the combined
timeout-or-cancellation expiration variant used by the runtime.

## Why
`agents.max_depth` is a legacy multi-agent v1 guard. Multi-agent v2 uses
task-path routing and its own session/thread limits, so v2 should not
reject nested `spawn_agent` calls just because the thread-spawn depth
has reached the v1 maximum.
Keeping the v1 depth guard active in v2 prevents deeper task trees even
though the v2 path still needs the depth value only for lineage and
task-path metadata.
## What Changed
- Removed the depth-limit rejection from the multi-agent v2
`spawn_agent` handler while still computing child depth for lineage/path
metadata.
- Made the depth-based disabling of legacy `SpawnCsv`/`Collab` tools
apply only when `Feature::MultiAgentV2` is disabled.
- Added `multi_agent_v2_spawn_agent_ignores_configured_max_depth` to
cover a v2 child spawning another agent when `agent_max_depth = 1`,
while the existing v1 depth-limit tests continue to enforce the legacy
behavior.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-core
multi_agent_v2_spawn_agent_ignores_configured_max_depth -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core depth_limit -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::handlers::multi_agents::tests --
--nocapture`
Messages sent with `followup_task` already arrive at their target
recipient promptly (at message boundaries while sampling, or after the
pending tool call completes) -- having `interrupt` is not worth the
added complexity.
