## Summary
- run apply_patch through the executor filesystem when a remote
environment is present instead of shelling out to the local process
- thread the executor FileSystem into apply_patch interception and keep
existing local behavior for non-remote turns
- make the apply_patch integration harness use the executor filesystem
for setup/assertions
- add remote-aware skips for turn-diff coverage that still reads the
test-runner filesystem
## Why
Remote apply_patch needed to mutate the remote workspace instead of the
local checkout. The tests also needed to seed and assert workspace state
through the same filesystem abstraction so local and remote runs
exercise the same behavior.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
- `cargo check -p core_test_support --tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
suite::shell_serialization::apply_patch_custom_tool_call -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
suite::apply_patch_cli::apply_patch_cli_updates_file_appends_trailing_newline
-- --nocapture`
- remote `cargo test -p codex-core --test all apply_patch_cli --
--nocapture` (229 passed)
- Migrate apply-patch verification and application internals to use the
async `ExecutorFileSystem` abstraction from `exec-server`.
- Convert apply-patch `cwd` handling to `AbsolutePathBuf` through the
verifier/parser/handler boundary.
Doesn't change how the tool itself works.

## Description
This PR changes guardian transcript compaction so oversized
conversations no longer collapse into a nearly empty placeholder.
Before this change, if the retained user history alone exceeded the
message budget, guardian would replace the entire transcript with
`<transcript omitted to preserve budget for planned action>`!
That meant approvals, especially network approvals, could lose the
recent tool call and tool result that explained what guardian was
actually reviewing. Now we keep a compact but usable transcript instead
of dropping it all.

Addresses #15527
Problem: Nested `codex exec` commands could source a shell snapshot that
re-exported the parent `CODEX_THREAD_ID`, so commands inside the nested
session were attributed to the wrong thread.
Solution: Reapply the live command env's `CODEX_THREAD_ID` after
sourcing the snapshot.
Problem: The multi-agent followup interrupt test polled history before
interrupt cleanup and mailbox wakeup were guaranteed to settle, which
made it flaky under CI scheduling variance.
Solution: Wait for the child turn's `TurnAborted(Interrupted)` event
before asserting that the redirected assistant envelope is recorded and
no plain user message is left behind.
## Summary
- reduce public module visibility across Rust crates, preferring private
or crate-private modules with explicit crate-root public exports
- update external call sites and tests to use the intended public crate
APIs instead of reaching through module trees
- add the module visibility guideline to AGENTS.md
## Validation
- `cargo check --workspace --all-targets --message-format=short` passed
before the final fix/format pass
- `just fix` completed successfully
- `just fmt` completed successfully
- `git diff --check` passed
## Summary
- make `CODEX_EXEC_SERVER_URL=none` map to an explicit disabled
environment mode instead of inferring from a missing URL
- expose environment capabilities (`exec_enabled`, `filesystem_enabled`)
so tool building can gate behavior explicitly and future
multi-environment work has a clearer seam
- suppress env-backed tools when the relevant capability is unavailable,
including exec tools, `js_repl`, `apply_patch`, `list_dir`, and
`view_image`
- keep handler/runtime backstops so disabled environments still reject
execution if a tool path somehow bypasses registration
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-exec-server`
- `cargo test -p codex-tools
disabled_environment_omits_environment_backed_tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-tools
environment_capabilities_gate_exec_and_filesystem_tools_independently`
- remote devbox Bazel build via `codex-applied-devbox`:
`//codex-rs/cli:cli`
Stacked on #16508.
This removes the temporary `codex-core` / `codex-login` re-export shims
from the ownership split and rewrites callsites to import directly from
`codex-model-provider-info`, `codex-models-manager`, `codex-api`,
`codex-protocol`, `codex-feedback`, and `codex-response-debug-context`.
No behavior change intended; this is the mechanical import cleanup layer
split out from the ownership move.

## Summary
- split `models-manager` out of `core` and add `ModelsManagerConfig`
plus `Config::to_models_manager_config()` so model metadata paths stop
depending on `core::Config`
- move login-owned/auth-owned code out of `core` into `codex-login`,
move model provider config into `codex-model-provider-info`, move API
bridge mapping into `codex-api`, move protocol-owned types/impls into
`codex-protocol`, and move response debug helpers into a dedicated
`response-debug-context` crate
- move feedback tag emission into `codex-feedback`, relocate tests to
the crates that now own the code, and keep broad temporary re-exports so
this PR avoids a giant import-only rewrite
## Major moves and decisions
- created `codex-models-manager` as the owner for model
cache/catalog/config/model info logic, including the new
`ModelsManagerConfig` struct
- created `codex-model-provider-info` as the owner for provider config
parsing/defaults and kept temporary `codex-login`/`codex-core`
re-exports for old import paths
- moved `api_bridge` error mapping + `CoreAuthProvider` into
`codex-api`, while `codex-login::api_bridge` temporarily re-exports
those symbols and keeps the `auth_provider_from_auth` wrapper
- moved `auth_env_telemetry` and `provider_auth` ownership to
`codex-login`
- moved `CodexErr` ownership to `codex-protocol::error`, plus
`StreamOutput`, `bytes_to_string_smart`, and network policy helpers to
protocol-owned modules
- created `codex-response-debug-context` for
`extract_response_debug_context`, `telemetry_transport_error_message`,
and related response-debug plumbing instead of leaving that behavior in
`core`
- moved `FeedbackRequestTags`, `emit_feedback_request_tags`, and
`emit_feedback_request_tags_with_auth_env` to `codex-feedback`
- deferred removal of temporary re-exports and the mechanical import
rewrites to a stacked follow-up PR so this PR stays reviewable
## Test moves
- moved auth refresh coverage from `core/tests/suite/auth_refresh.rs` to
`login/tests/suite/auth_refresh.rs`
- moved text encoding coverage from
`core/tests/suite/text_encoding_fix.rs` to
`protocol/src/exec_output_tests.rs`
- moved model info override coverage from
`core/tests/suite/model_info_overrides.rs` to
`models-manager/src/model_info_overrides_tests.rs`

## Why
This continues the compile-time cleanup from #16630. `SessionTask`
implementations are monomorphized, but `Session` stores the task behind
a `dyn` boundary so it can drive and abort heterogenous turn tasks
uniformly. That means we can move the `#[async_trait]` expansion off the
implementation trait, keep a small boxed adapter only at the storage
boundary, and preserve the existing task lifecycle semantics while
reducing the amount of generated async-trait glue in `codex-core`.
One measurement caveat showed up while exploring this: a warm
incremental benchmark based on `touch core/src/tasks/mod.rs && cargo
check -p codex-core --lib` was basically flat, but that was the wrong
benchmark for this change. Using package-clean `codex-core` rebuilds,
like #16630, shows the real win.
Relevant pre-change code:
- [`SessionTask` with
`#[async_trait]`](3c7f013f97/codex-rs/core/src/tasks/mod.rs (L129-L182))
- [`RunningTask` storing `Arc<dyn
SessionTask>`](3c7f013f97/codex-rs/core/src/state/turn.rs (L69-L77))
## What changed
- Switched `SessionTask::{run, abort}` to native RPITIT futures with
explicit `Send` bounds.
- Added a private `AnySessionTask` adapter that boxes those futures only
at the `Arc<dyn ...>` storage boundary.
- Updated `RunningTask` to store `Arc<dyn AnySessionTask>` and removed
`#[async_trait]` from the concrete task impls plus test-only
`SessionTask` impls.
## Timing
Benchmarked package-clean `codex-core` rebuilds with dependencies left
warm:
```shell
cargo check -p codex-core --lib >/dev/null
cargo clean -p codex-core >/dev/null
/usr/bin/time -p cargo +nightly rustc -p codex-core --lib -- \
-Z time-passes \
-Z time-passes-format=json >/dev/null
```
| revision | rustc `total` | process `real` | `generate_crate_metadata`
| `MIR_borrow_checking` | `monomorphization_collector_graph_walk` |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| parent `3c7f013f9735` | 67.21s | 67.71s | 24.61s | 23.43s | 22.43s |

| delta | -47.8% | -47.4% | -67.5% | -69.1% | -68.1% |
For completeness, the warm touched-file benchmark stayed flat (`1.96s`
parent vs `1.97s` this PR), which is why that benchmark should not be
used to evaluate this refactor.
## Verification
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-core`; this change compiled and task-related
tests passed before hitting the same unrelated 5
`config::tests::*guardian*` failures already present on the parent
stack.
## Why
This finishes the config-type move out of `codex-core` by removing the
temporary compatibility shim in `codex_core::config::types`. Callers now
depend on `codex-config` directly, which keeps these config model types
owned by the config crate instead of re-expanding `codex-core` as a
transitive API surface.
## What Changed
- Removed the `codex-rs/core/src/config/types.rs` re-export shim and the
`core::config::ApprovalsReviewer` re-export.
- Updated `codex-core`, `codex-cli`, `codex-tui`, `codex-app-server`,
`codex-mcp-server`, and `codex-linux-sandbox` call sites to import
`codex_config::types` directly.
- Added explicit `codex-config` dependencies to downstream crates that
previously relied on the `codex-core` re-export.
- Regenerated `codex-rs/core/config.schema.json` after updating the
config docs path reference.
## Why
#16513 moved pure tool-registry planning into `codex-tools`, but much of
the corresponding spec/feature-gating coverage still lived in
`codex-core`. That leaves the tests for planner behavior in the crate
that no longer owns that logic and makes the next extraction steps
harder to review.
## What
Move the planner-only `spec_tests.rs` coverage into
`codex-rs/tools/src/tool_registry_plan_tests.rs` and wire it up from
`codex-rs/tools/src/tool_registry_plan.rs` using the crate-local `#[path
= "tool_registry_plan_tests.rs"] mod tests;` pattern.
The `codex-core` test file now keeps the core-side integration checks:
router-visible model tool lists, namespaced handler alias registration,
shell adapter behavior, and MCP schema edge cases that still exercise
the `core` binding layer.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::spec::tests`
## Why
This is a larger step in the `codex-core` -> `codex-tools` migration
called out in `AGENTS.md`.
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec.rs` had become mostly pure tool-spec
assembly plus handler registration. That made it hard to move more of
the tool-definition layer into `codex-tools`, because the runtime
binding and the crate-independent planning logic were still interleaved
in one function.
Splitting those concerns gives `codex-tools` ownership of the
declarative registry plan while keeping `codex-core` responsible for
instantiating concrete handlers.
## What Changed
- Add a `codex-tools` registry-plan layer in
`codex-rs/tools/src/tool_registry_plan.rs` and
`codex-rs/tools/src/tool_registry_plan_types.rs`.
- Move feature-gated tool-spec assembly, MCP/dynamic tool conversion,
tool-search aliases, and code-mode nested-plan expansion into
`codex-tools`.
- Keep `codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec.rs` as the core-side adapter that
maps each planned handler kind to concrete runtime handler instances.
- Update `spec_tests.rs` to import the moved `codex_tools` symbols
directly instead of relying on top-level `spec.rs` re-exports.
This is intended to be a straight refactor with no behavior change and
no new test surface.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::spec::tests`

Stack created with [Sapling](https://sapling-scm.com). Best reviewed
with [ReviewStack](https://reviewstack.dev/openai/codex/pull/16513).
* #16521
* __->__ #16513
## 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
This is another small step in the `codex-core` -> `codex-tools`
migration described in `AGENTS.md`.
`core/src/tools/spec.rs` and `core/src/tools/code_mode/mod.rs` were both
hand-rolling the same pure transformation: convert visible `ToolSpec`s
into code-mode nested tool definitions, then sort and deduplicate by
tool name. That logic does not depend on core runtime state or handlers,
so keeping it in `codex-core` makes `spec.rs` harder to peel out later
than it needs to be.
## What Changed
- Add `collect_code_mode_tool_definitions()` to
`codex-rs/tools/src/code_mode.rs`.
- Reuse that helper from `codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec.rs` when
assembling the `exec` tool description.
- Reuse the same helper from `codex-rs/core/src/tools/code_mode/mod.rs`
when exposing nested tool metadata to the code-mode runtime.
This is intended to be a straight refactor with no behavior change and
no new test surface.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::spec::tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-core code_mode_only_`
## Why
`codex-mcp` already owns the shared MCP API surface, including `auth`,
`McpConfig`, `CODEX_APPS_MCP_SERVER_NAME`, and tool-name helpers in
[`codex-rs/codex-mcp/src/mcp/mod.rs`](f61e85dbfb/codex-rs/codex-mcp/src/mcp/mod.rs (L1-L35)).
Re-exporting that surface from `codex_core::mcp` gives downstream crates
two import paths for the same API and hides the real crate dependency.
This PR keeps `codex_core::mcp` focused on the local `McpManager`
wrapper in
[`codex-rs/core/src/mcp.rs`](f61e85dbfb/codex-rs/core/src/mcp.rs (L13-L40))
and makes consumers import shared MCP APIs from `codex_mcp` directly.
## What
- Remove the `codex_mcp::mcp` re-export surface from `core/src/mcp.rs`.
- Update `codex-core` internals plus `codex-app-server`, `codex-cli`,
and `codex-tui` test code to import MCP APIs from `codex_mcp::mcp`
directly.
- Add explicit `codex-mcp` dependencies where those crates now use that
API surface, and refresh `Cargo.lock`.
## Verification
- `just bazel-lock-check`
- `cargo test -p codex-core -p codex-cli -p codex-tui`
- `codex-cli` passed.
- `codex-core` still fails five unrelated config tests in
`core/src/config/config_tests.rs` (`approvals_reviewer_*` and
`smart_approvals_alias_*`).
- A broader `cargo test -p codex-core -p codex-app-server -p codex-cli
-p codex-tui` run previously hung in `codex-app-server` test
`in_process_start_uses_requested_session_source_for_thread_start`.
## Why
This is another incremental step in the `codex-core` -> `codex-tools`
migration called out in `AGENTS.md`: keep pure tool-definition and
wire-shaping logic out of `codex-core` so the core crate can stay
focused on runtime orchestration.
`request_user_input` already had its spec and mode-availability helpers
in `codex-tools` after #16471. The remaining argument validation and
normalization still lived in the core runtime handler, which left that
tool split across the two crates.
## What Changed
- Export `REQUEST_USER_INPUT_TOOL_NAME` and
`normalize_request_user_input_args()` from
`codex-rs/tools/src/request_user_input_tool.rs`.
- Use that `codex-tools` surface from `codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec.rs`
and `codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers/request_user_input.rs`.
- Keep the core handler responsible for payload parsing, session
dispatch, cancellation handling, and response serialization.
This is intended to be a straight refactor with no behavior change.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core request_user_input`
## Why
`codex-rs/tools/src/lib.rs` already defines the [canonical `codex_tools`
export
surface](bf081b9e28/codex-rs/tools/src/lib.rs (L83-L88))
for `ToolsConfig`, `ToolsConfigParams`, and the shell backend config
types. Re-exporting those same types from `core/src/tools/spec.rs` gives
`codex-core` two import paths for one API and blurs which crate owns
those config definitions.
This PR removes that duplicate path so `codex-core` callsites depend on
`codex_tools` directly.
## What
- Remove the five `codex_tools` re-exports from
`core/src/tools/spec.rs`.
- Update `codex-core` production and test callsites to import
`ShellCommandBackendConfig`, `ToolsConfig`, `ToolsConfigParams`,
`UnifiedExecShellMode`, and `ZshForkConfig` from `codex_tools`.
## Verification
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-core`.
- The package run is currently red in five unrelated config tests in
`core/src/config/config_tests.rs` (`approvals_reviewer_*` and
`smart_approvals_alias_*`), while the tool/spec and shell tests touched
by this import cleanup passed.
## Why
This is another straight-refactor step in the `codex-tools` migration.
`core/src/tools/handlers/tool_suggest.rs` still owned request/response
payload structs, elicitation metadata shaping, and connector-completion
predicates that do not depend on `codex-core` session/runtime internals.
Per the `AGENTS.md` guidance to keep shrinking `codex-core`, this moves
that pure wire-format logic into `codex-rs/tools` so the core handler
keeps only session orchestration, plugin/config refresh, and MCP cache
updates.
## What changed
- Added `codex-rs/tools/src/tool_suggest.rs` and exported its API from
`codex-rs/tools/src/lib.rs`.
- Moved `ToolSuggestArgs`, `ToolSuggestResult`, `ToolSuggestMeta`,
`build_tool_suggestion_elicitation_request()`,
`all_suggested_connectors_picked_up()`, and
`verified_connector_suggestion_completed()` into `codex-tools`.
- Rewired `core/src/tools/handlers/tool_suggest.rs` to consume those
exports directly.
- Ported the existing pure helper tests from
`core/src/tools/handlers/tool_suggest_tests.rs` to
`tools/src/tool_suggest_tests.rs` without adding new behavior coverage.
## Validation
```shell
cargo test -p codex-tools
cargo test -p codex-core tools::handlers::tool_suggest::tests
just argument-comment-lint
```
## Why
This is the next straight-refactor step in the `codex-tools` migration
that follows #16493.
`codex-rs/core` still owned a chunk of pure tool-discovery metadata and
response shaping even though the corresponding `tool_search` /
`tool_suggest` specs already live in `codex-rs/tools`. Per the guidance
in `AGENTS.md`, this moves that crate-agnostic logic out of `codex-core`
so the handler crate keeps only the BM25 ranking/orchestration and
runtime glue.
## What changed
- Moved the canonical `tool_search` / `tool_suggest` tool names and the
`tool_search` default limit into `codex-rs/tools/src/tool_discovery.rs`.
- Added `ToolSearchResultSource` and
`collect_tool_search_output_tools()` in `codex-tools` so namespace
grouping and deferred Responses API tool serialization happen outside
`codex-core`.
- Rewired `ToolSearchHandler`, `ToolSuggestHandler`, and
`core/src/tools/spec.rs` to consume those exports directly from
`codex-tools`.
- Ported the existing `tool_search` serializer tests from
`core/src/tools/handlers/tool_search_tests.rs` to
`tools/src/tool_discovery_tests.rs` without adding new behavior
coverage.
## Validation
```shell
cargo test -p codex-tools
cargo test -p codex-core tools::spec::tests
just argument-comment-lint
```
## Why
`core/src/tools/spec.rs` still had a few built-in tool specs assembled
inline even though those definitions are pure metadata and already live
conceptually in `codex-tools`. Keeping that construction in `codex-core`
makes `spec.rs` do more than registry orchestration and slows the
migration toward a right-sized `codex-tools` crate.
This continues the extraction stack from #16379, #16471, #16477, #16481,
and #16482.
## What Changed
- added `create_local_shell_tool()`, `create_web_search_tool(...)`, and
`create_image_generation_tool(...)` to `codex-rs/tools/src/tool_spec.rs`
- exported those helpers from `codex-rs/tools/src/lib.rs`
- switched `codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec.rs` to call those helpers
instead of constructing `ToolSpec::LocalShell`, `ToolSpec::WebSearch`,
and `ToolSpec::ImageGeneration` inline
- removed the remaining core-local web-search content-type constant and
made the affected spec test assert the literal expected values directly
This is intended to be a straight refactor: tool behavior and wire shape
should not change.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::spec::tests`
## Why
`codex-rs/core/src/client_common.rs` still had a `tools` re-export
module that forwarded `codex_tools` types back into `codex-core`. After
the earlier extraction work in #16379, #16471, #16477, and #16481, that
extra layer no longer adds value.
Removing it keeps dependencies explicit: the `codex-core` modules that
actually use `ToolSpec` and related types now depend on `codex_tools`
directly instead of reaching through `client_common`.
## What Changed
- removed the `client_common::tools` re-export module from
`core/src/client_common.rs`
- updated the remaining `codex-core` consumers to import `codex_tools`
directly
- adjusted the affected test code to reference
`codex_tools::ResponsesApiTool` directly as well
This is a mechanical cleanup only. It does not change tool behavior or
runtime logic.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-core client_common::tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::router::tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::context::tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::spec::tests`
## Why
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers/plan.rs` still owned both the
`update_plan` runtime handler and the static tool definition. The tool
definition is pure metadata, so keeping it in `codex-core` works against
the ongoing effort to move tool-spec code into `codex-tools` and keep
`codex-core` focused on orchestration and execution paths.
This continues the extraction work from #16379, #16471, and #16477.
## What Changed
- added `codex-rs/tools/src/plan_tool.rs` with
`create_update_plan_tool()`
- re-exported that constructor from `codex-rs/tools/src/lib.rs`
- updated `codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec.rs` and
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec_tests.rs` to use the `codex-tools` export
instead of a core-local static
- removed the old `PLAN_TOOL` definition from
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers/plan.rs`; the `PlanHandler` runtime
logic still stays in `codex-core`
- tightened two `codex-core` aliases to `#[cfg(test)]` now that
production code no longer needs them
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::spec::tests`

## Description
Previously the `action` field on `EventMsg::GuardianAssessment`, which
describes what Guardian is reviewing, was typed as an arbitrary JSON
blob. This PR cleans it up and defines a sum type representing all the
various actions that Guardian can review.
This is a breaking change (on purpose), which is fine because:
- the Codex app / VSCE does not actually use `action` at the moment
- the TUI code that consumes `action` is updated in this PR as well
- rollout files that serialized old `EventMsg::GuardianAssessment` will
just silently drop these guardian events
- the contract is defined as unstable, so other clients have a fair
warning :)
This will make things much easier for followup Guardian work.
## Why
The old guardian review payloads worked, but they pushed too much shape
knowledge into downstream consumers. The TUI had custom JSON parsing
logic for commands, patches, network requests, and MCP calls, and the
app-server protocol was effectively just passing through an opaque blob.
Typing this at the protocol boundary makes the contract clearer.
## Why
Follow-up to #16379 and #16471.
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec.rs` still owned the pure discovery-shaping
helpers that turn app metadata and discoverable tool metadata into the
inputs used by `tool_search` and `tool_suggest`. Those helpers do not
need `codex-core` runtime state, so keeping them in `codex-core`
continued to blur the crate boundary this migration is trying to
tighten.
This change keeps pushing spec-only logic behind the `codex-tools` API
so `codex-core` can focus on wiring runtime handlers to the resulting
tool definitions.
## What Changed
- Added `collect_tool_search_app_infos` and
`collect_tool_suggest_entries` to
`codex-rs/tools/src/tool_discovery.rs`.
- Added a small `ToolSearchAppSource` adapter type in `codex-tools` so
`codex-core` can pass app metadata into that shared helper logic without
exposing `ToolInfo` across the crate boundary.
- Re-exported the new discovery helpers from
`codex-rs/tools/src/lib.rs`, which remains exports-only.
- Updated `codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec.rs` to use those `codex-tools`
helpers instead of maintaining local `tool_search_app_infos` and
`tool_suggest_entries` functions.
- Removed the now-redundant helper implementations from `codex-core`.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::spec::tests`
## Why
Follow-up to #16379.
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec.rs` and the corresponding handlers still
owned several pure tool-definition helpers even though they do not need
`codex-core` runtime state. Keeping that spec-only logic in `codex-core`
keeps the crate boundary blurry and works against the guidance in
`AGENTS.md` to keep shared tooling out of `codex-core` when possible.
This change takes another step toward a dedicated `codex-tools` crate by
moving more metadata and schema-building code behind the `codex-tools`
API while leaving the actual tool execution paths in `codex-core`.
## What Changed
- Added `codex-rs/tools/src/apply_patch_tool.rs` to own
`ApplyPatchToolArgs`, the freeform/json `apply_patch` tool specs, and
the moved `tool_apply_patch.lark` grammar.
- Updated `codex-rs/tools/BUILD.bazel` so Bazel exposes the moved
grammar file to `codex-tools`.
- Moved the `request_user_input` availability and description helpers
into `codex-rs/tools/src/request_user_input_tool.rs`, with the related
unit tests moved alongside that business logic.
- Moved `request_permissions_tool_description()` into
`codex-rs/tools/src/local_tool.rs`.
- Rewired `codex-rs/core/src/tools/spec.rs`,
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers/apply_patch.rs`, and
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers/request_user_input.rs` to consume the
new `codex-tools` exports instead of local helper code.
- Removed the now-redundant helper implementations and tests from
`codex-core`, plus a couple of stale `client_common` re-exports that
became unused after the move.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::spec::tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::handlers::apply_patch::tests`
## Why
`codex-core` already owns too much of the tool stack, and `AGENTS.md`
explicitly pushes us to move shared code out of `codex-core` instead of
letting it keep growing. This PR takes the next incremental step in
moving `core/src/tools` toward `codex-rs/tools` by extracting
low-coupling tool configuration and image-detail gating logic into
`codex-tools`.
That gives later extraction work a cleaner boundary to build on without
trying to move the entire tools subtree in one shot.
## What changed
- moved `ToolsConfig`, `ToolsConfigParams`, shell backend config, and
unified-exec session selection from `core/src/tools/spec.rs` into
`codex-tools`
- moved original image-detail gating and normalization into
`codex-tools`
- updated `codex-core` to consume the new `codex-tools` exports and pass
a rendered agent-type description instead of raw role config
- kept `codex-rs/tools/src/lib.rs` exports-only, with extracted unit
tests living in sibling `*_tests.rs` modules
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib tools::spec::`
## Summary
- switch MultiAgentV2 send_message to accept a single message string
instead of items
- keep the old assign_task item parser in place for the next branch
- update send_message schema/spec and focused handler tests
## Verification
- cargo test -p codex-tools
send_message_tool_requires_message_and_uses_submission_output
- cargo test -p codex-core multi_agent_v2_send_message
- just fix -p codex-tools
- just fix -p codex-core
- just argument-comment-lint
