## 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
Bazel clippy now catches lints that `cargo clippy` can still miss when a
crate under `codex-rs` forgets to opt into workspace lints. The concrete
example here was `codex-rs/app-server/tests/common/Cargo.toml`: Bazel
flagged a clippy violation in `models_cache.rs`, but Cargo did not
because that crate inherited workspace package metadata without
declaring `[lints] workspace = true`.
We already mirror the workspace clippy deny list into Bazel after
[#15955](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/15955), so we also need a
repo-side check that keeps every `codex-rs` manifest opted into the same
workspace settings.
## What changed
- add `.github/scripts/verify_cargo_workspace_manifests.py`, which
parses every `codex-rs/**/Cargo.toml` with `tomllib` and verifies:
- `version.workspace = true`
- `edition.workspace = true`
- `license.workspace = true`
- `[lints] workspace = true`
- top-level crate names follow the `codex-*` / `codex-utils-*`
conventions, with explicit exceptions for `windows-sandbox-rs` and
`utils/path-utils`
- run that script in `.github/workflows/ci.yml`
- update the current outlier manifests so the check is enforceable
immediately
- fix the newly exposed clippy violations in the affected crates
(`app-server/tests/common`, `file-search`, `feedback`,
`shell-escalation`, and `debug-client`)

## Problem
App-server clients could only initiate ChatGPT login through the browser
callback flow, even though the shared login crate already supports
device-code auth. That left VS Code, Codex App, and other app-server
clients without a first-class way to use the existing device-code
backend when browser redirects are brittle or when the client UX wants
to own the login ceremony.
## Mental model
This change adds a second ChatGPT login start path to app-server:
clients can now call `account/login/start` with `type:
"chatgptDeviceCode"`. App-server immediately returns a `loginId` plus
the device-code UX payload (`verificationUrl` and `userCode`), then
completes the login asynchronously in the background using the existing
`codex_login` polling flow. Successful device-code login still resolves
to ordinary `chatgpt` auth, and completion continues to flow through the
existing `account/login/completed` and `account/updated` notifications.
## Non-goals
This does not introduce a new auth mode, a new account shape, or a
device-code eligibility discovery API. It also does not add automatic
fallback to browser login in core; clients remain responsible for
choosing when to request device code and whether to retry with a
different UX if the backend/admin policy rejects it.
## Tradeoffs
We intentionally keep `login_chatgpt_common` as a local validation
helper instead of turning it into a capability probe. Device-code
eligibility is checked by actually calling `request_device_code`, which
means policy-disabled cases surface as an immediate request error rather
than an async completion event. We also keep the active-login state
machine minimal: browser and device-code logins share the same public
cancel contract, but device-code cancellation is implemented with a
local cancel token rather than a larger cross-crate refactor.
## Architecture
The protocol grows a new `chatgptDeviceCode` request/response variant in
app-server v2. On the server side, the new handler reuses the existing
ChatGPT login precondition checks, calls `request_device_code`, returns
the device-code payload, and then spawns a background task that waits on
either cancellation or `complete_device_code_login`. On success, it
reuses the existing auth reload and cloud-requirements refresh path
before emitting `account/login/completed` success and `account/updated`.
On failure or cancellation, it emits only `account/login/completed`
failure. The existing `account/login/cancel { loginId }` contract
remains unchanged and now works for both browser and device-code
attempts.
## Tests
Added protocol serialization coverage for the new request/response
variant, plus app-server tests for device-code success, failure, cancel,
and start-time rejection behavior. Existing browser ChatGPT login
coverage remains in place to show that the callback-based flow is
unchanged.
## Why
`token_data` is owned by `codex-login`, but `codex-core` was still
re-exporting it. That let callers pull auth token types through
`codex-core`, which keeps otherwise unrelated crates coupled to
`codex-core` and makes `codex-core` more of a build-graph bottleneck.
## What changed
- remove the `codex-core` re-export of `codex_login::token_data`
- update the remaining `codex-core` internals that used
`crate::token_data` to import `codex_login::token_data` directly
- update downstream callers in `codex-rs/chatgpt`,
`codex-rs/tui_app_server`, `codex-rs/app-server/tests/common`, and
`codex-rs/core/tests` to import `codex_login::token_data` directly
- add explicit `codex-login` workspace dependencies and refresh lock
metadata for crates that now depend on it directly
## Validation
- `cargo test -p codex-chatgpt --locked`
- `just argument-comment-lint`
- `just bazel-lock-update`
- `just bazel-lock-check`
## Notes
- attempted `cargo test -p codex-core --locked` and `cargo test -p
codex-core auth_refresh --locked`, but both ran out of disk while
linking `codex-core` test binaries in the local environment
### Summary
Add the v2 app-server filesystem watch RPCs and notifications, wire them
through the message processor, and implement connection-scoped watches
with notify-backed change delivery. This also updates the schema
fixtures, app-server documentation, and the v2 integration coverage for
watch and unwatch behavior.
This allows clients to efficiently watch for filesystem updates, e.g. to
react on branch changes.
### Testing
- exercise watch lifecycles for directory changes, atomic file
replacement, missing-file targets, and unwatch cleanup
This PR add an URI-based system to reference agents within a tree. This
comes from a sync between research and engineering.
The main agent (the one manually spawned by a user) is always called
`/root`. Any sub-agent spawned by it will be `/root/agent_1` for example
where `agent_1` is chosen by the model.
Any agent can contact any agents using the path.
Paths can be used either in absolute or relative to the calling agents
Resume is not supported for now on this new path
- Split the feature system into a new `codex-features` crate.
- Cut `codex-core` and workspace consumers over to the new config and
warning APIs.

1. Added SessionSource::Custom(String) and --session-source.
2. Enforced plugin and skill products by session_source.
3. Applied the same filtering to curated background refresh.
This PR adds a new `thread/shellCommand` app server API so clients can
implement `!` shell commands. These commands are executed within the
sandbox, and the command text and output are visible to the model.
The internal implementation mirrors the current TUI `!` behavior.
- persist shell command execution as `CommandExecution` thread items,
including source and formatted output metadata
- bridge live and replayed app-server command execution events back into
the existing `tui_app_server` exec rendering path
This PR also wires `tui_app_server` to submit `!` commands through the
new API.
1. Use requirement-resolved config.features as the plugin gate.
2. Guard plugin/list, plugin/read, and related flows behind that gate.
3. Skip bad marketplace.json files instead of failing the whole list.
4. Simplify plugin state and caching.
## What is flaky
`codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/fuzzy_file_search.rs` intermittently
loses the expected `fuzzyFileSearch/sessionUpdated` and
`fuzzyFileSearch/sessionCompleted` notifications when multiple
fuzzy-search sessions are active and CI delivers notifications out of
order.
## Why it was flaky
The wait helpers were keyed only by JSON-RPC method name.
- `wait_for_session_updated` consumed the next
`fuzzyFileSearch/sessionUpdated` notification even when it belonged to a
different search session.
- `wait_for_session_completed` did the same for
`fuzzyFileSearch/sessionCompleted`.
- Once an unmatched notification was read, it was dropped permanently
instead of buffered.
- That meant a valid completion for the target search could arrive
slightly early, be consumed by the wrong waiter, and disappear before
the test started waiting for it.
The result depended on notification ordering and runner scheduling
instead of on the actual product behavior.
## How this PR fixes it
- Add a buffered notification reader in
`codex-rs/app-server/tests/common/mcp_process.rs`.
- Match fuzzy-search notifications on the identifying payload fields
instead of matching only on method name.
- Preserve unmatched notifications in the in-process queue so later
waiters can still consume them.
- Include pending notification methods in timeout failures to make
future diagnosis concrete.
## Why this fix fixes the flakiness
The test now behaves like a real consumer of an out-of-order event
stream: notifications for other sessions stay buffered until the correct
waiter asks for them. Reordering no longer loses the target event, so
the test result is determined by whether the server emitted the right
notifications, not by which one happened to be read first.

## Why
Once the repo-local lint exists, `codex-rs` needs to follow the
checked-in convention and CI needs to keep it from drifting. This commit
applies the fallback `/*param*/` style consistently across existing
positional literal call sites without changing those APIs.
The longer-term preference is still to avoid APIs that require comments
by choosing clearer parameter types and call shapes. This PR is
intentionally the mechanical follow-through for the places where the
existing signatures stay in place.
After rebasing onto newer `main`, the rollout also had to cover newly
introduced `tui_app_server` call sites. That made it clear the first cut
of the CI job was too expensive for the common path: it was spending
almost as much time installing `cargo-dylint` and re-testing the lint
crate as a representative test job spends running product tests. The CI
update keeps the full workspace enforcement but trims that extra
overhead from ordinary `codex-rs` PRs.
## What changed
- keep a dedicated `argument_comment_lint` job in `rust-ci`
- mechanically annotate remaining opaque positional literals across
`codex-rs` with exact `/*param*/` comments, including the rebased
`tui_app_server` call sites that now fall under the lint
- keep the checked-in style aligned with the lint policy by using
`/*param*/` and leaving string and char literals uncommented
- cache `cargo-dylint`, `dylint-link`, and the relevant Cargo
registry/git metadata in the lint job
- split changed-path detection so the lint crate's own `cargo test` step
runs only when `tools/argument-comment-lint/*` or `rust-ci.yml` changes
- continue to run the repo wrapper over the `codex-rs` workspace, so
product-code enforcement is unchanged
Most of the code changes in this commit are intentionally mechanical
comment rewrites or insertions driven by the lint itself.
## Verification
- `./tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh --workspace`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui-app-server -p codex-tui`
- parsed `.github/workflows/rust-ci.yml` locally with PyYAML

We regularly get bug reports from users who mistakenly have the
`OPENAI_BASE_URL` environment variable set. This PR deprecates this
environment variable in favor of a top-level config key
`openai_base_url` that is used for the same purpose. By making it a
config key, it will be more visible to users. It will also participate
in all of the infrastructure we've added for layered and managed
configs.
Summary
- introduce the `openai_base_url` top-level config key, update
schema/tests, and route the built-in openai provider through it while
- fall back to deprecated `OPENAI_BASE_URL` env var but warn user of
deprecation when no `openai_base_url` config key is present
- update CLI, SDK, and TUI code to prefer the new config path (with a
deprecated env-var fallback) and document the SDK behavior change
Add a protocol-level filesystem surface to the v2 app-server so Codex
clients can read and write files, inspect directories, and subscribe to
path changes without relying on host-specific helpers.
High-level changes:
- define the new v2 fs/readFile, fs/writeFile, fs/createDirectory,
fs/getMetadata, fs/readDirectory, fs/remove, fs/copy RPCs
- implement the app-server handlers, including absolute-path validation,
base64 file payloads, recursive copy/remove semantics
- document the API, regenerate protocol schemas/types, and add
end-to-end tests for filesystem operations, copy edge cases
Testing plan:
- validate protocol serialization and generated schema output for the
new fs request, response, and notification types
- run app-server integration coverage for file and directory CRUD paths,
metadata/readDirectory responses, copy failure modes, and absolute-path
validation
## Description
This PR stops emitting legacy `codex/event/*` notifications from the
public app-server transports.
It's been a long time coming! app-server was still producing a raw
notification stream from core, alongside the typed app-server
notifications and server requests, for compatibility reasons. Now,
external clients should no longer be depending on those legacy
notifications, so this change removes them from the stdio and websocket
contract and updates the surrounding docs, examples, and tests to match.
### Caveat
I left the "in-process" version of app-server alone for now, since
`codex exec` was recently based on top of app-server via this in-process
form here: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/14005
Seems like `codex exec` still consumes some legacy notifications
internally, so this branch only removes `codex/event/*` from app-server
over stdio and websockets.
## Follow-up
Once `codex exec` is fully migrated off `codex/event/*` notifications,
we'll be able to stop emitting them entirely entirely instead of just
filtering it at the external transport boundary.
add `plugin/uninstall` app-server endpoint to fully rm plugin from
plugins cache dir and rm entry from user config file.
plugin-enablement is session-scoped, so uninstalls are only picked up in
new sessions (like installs).
added tests.
Adds a built-in `request_permissions` tool and wires it through the
Codex core, protocol, and app-server layers so a running turn can ask
the client for additional permissions instead of relying on a static
session policy.
The new flow emits a `RequestPermissions` event from core, tracks the
pending request by call ID, forwards it through app-server v2 as an
`item/permissions/requestApproval` request, and resumes the tool call
once the client returns an approved subset of the requested permission
profile.
* Add an ability to stream stdin, stdout, and stderr
* Streaming of stdout and stderr has a configurable cap for total amount
of transmitted bytes (with an ability to disable it)
* Add support for overriding environment variables
* Add an ability to terminate running applications (using
`command/exec/terminate`)
* Add TTY/PTY support, with an ability to resize the terminal (using
`command/exec/resize`)
#### What
on `plugin/install`, check if installed apps are already authed on
chatgpt, and return list of all apps that are not. clients can use this
list to trigger auth workflows as needed.
checks are best effort based on `codex_apps` loading, much like
`app/list`.
#### Tests
Added integration tests, tested locally.
add `web_search_tool_type` on model_info that can be populated from
backend. will be used to filter which models can use `web_search` with
images and which cant.
added small unit test.
## Summary
Add original-resolution support for `view_image` behind the
under-development `view_image_original_resolution` feature flag.
When the flag is enabled and the target model is `gpt-5.3-codex` or
newer, `view_image` now preserves original PNG/JPEG/WebP bytes and sends
`detail: "original"` to the Responses API instead of using the legacy
resize/compress path.
## What changed
- Added `view_image_original_resolution` as an under-development feature
flag.
- Added `ImageDetail` to the protocol models and support for serializing
`detail: "original"` on tool-returned images.
- Added `PromptImageMode::Original` to `codex-utils-image`.
- Preserves original PNG/JPEG/WebP bytes.
- Keeps legacy behavior for the resize path.
- Updated `view_image` to:
- use the shared `local_image_content_items_with_label_number(...)`
helper in both code paths
- select original-resolution mode only when:
- the feature flag is enabled, and
- the model slug parses as `gpt-5.3-codex` or newer
- Kept local user image attachments on the existing resize path; this
change is specific to `view_image`.
- Updated history/image accounting so only `detail: "original"` images
use the docs-based GPT-5 image cost calculation; legacy images still use
the old fixed estimate.
- Added JS REPL guidance, gated on the same feature flag, to prefer JPEG
at 85% quality unless lossless is required, while still allowing other
formats when explicitly requested.
- Updated tests and helper code that construct
`FunctionCallOutputContentItem::InputImage` to carry the new `detail`
field.
## Behavior
### Feature off
- `view_image` keeps the existing resize/re-encode behavior.
- History estimation keeps the existing fixed-cost heuristic.
### Feature on + `gpt-5.3-codex+`
- `view_image` sends original-resolution images with `detail:
"original"`.
- PNG/JPEG/WebP source bytes are preserved when possible.
- History estimation uses the GPT-5 docs-based image-cost calculation
for those `detail: "original"` images.

## Summary
- add the v2 `thread/metadata/update` API, including
protocol/schema/TypeScript exports and app-server docs
- patch stored thread `gitInfo` in sqlite without resuming the thread,
with validation plus support for explicit `null` clears
- repair missing sqlite thread rows from rollout data before patching,
and make those repairs safe by inserting only when absent and updating
only git columns so newer metadata is not clobbered
- keep sqlite authoritative for mutable thread git metadata by
preserving existing sqlite git fields during reconcile/backfill and only
using rollout `SessionMeta` git fields to fill gaps
- add regression coverage for the endpoint, repair paths, concurrent
sqlite writes, clearing git fields, and rollout/backfill reconciliation
- fix the login server shutdown race so cancelling before the waiter
starts still terminates `block_until_done()` correctly
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-state
apply_rollout_items_preserves_existing_git_branch_and_fills_missing_git_fields`
- `cargo test -p codex-state
update_thread_git_info_preserves_newer_non_git_metadata`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
backfill_sessions_preserves_existing_git_branch_and_fills_missing_git_fields`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server thread_metadata_update`
- `cargo test`
- currently fails in existing `codex-core` grep-files tests with
`unsupported call: grep_files`:
- `suite::grep_files::grep_files_tool_collects_matches`
- `suite::grep_files::grep_files_tool_reports_empty_results`
## Summary
This removes the old app-server v1 methods and notifications we no
longer need, while keeping the small set the main codex app client still
depends on for now.
The remaining legacy surface is:
- `initialize`
- `getConversationSummary`
- `getAuthStatus`
- `gitDiffToRemote`
- `fuzzyFileSearch`
- `fuzzyFileSearch/sessionStart`
- `fuzzyFileSearch/sessionUpdate`
- `fuzzyFileSearch/sessionStop`
And the raw `codex/event/*` notifications emitted from core. These
notifications will be removed in a followup PR.
## What changed
- removed deprecated v1 request variants from the protocol and
app-server dispatcher
- removed deprecated typed notifications: `authStatusChange`,
`loginChatGptComplete`, and `sessionConfigured`
- updated the app-server test client to use v2 flows instead of deleted
v1 flows
- deleted legacy-only app-server test suites and added focused coverage
for `getConversationSummary`
- regenerated app-server schema fixtures and updated the MCP interface
docs to match the remaining compatibility surface
## Testing
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server`
### Overview
This PR adds the first piece of tracing for app-server JSON-RPC
requests.
There are two main changes:
- JSON-RPC requests can now take an optional W3C trace context at the
top level via a `trace` field (`traceparent` / `tracestate`).
- app-server now creates a dedicated request span for every inbound
JSON-RPC request in `MessageProcessor`, and uses the request-level trace
context as the parent when present.
For compatibility with existing flows, app-server still falls back to
the TRACEPARENT env var when there is no request-level traceparent.
This PR is intentionally scoped to the app-server boundary. In a
followup, we'll actually propagate trace context through the async
handoff into core execution spans like run_turn, which will make
app-server traces much more useful.
### Spans
A few details on the app-server span shape:
- each inbound request gets its own server span
- span/resource names are based on the JSON-RPC method (`initialize`,
`thread/start`, `turn/start`, etc.)
- spans record transport (stdio vs websocket), request id, connection
id, and client name/version when available
- `initialize` stores client metadata in session state so later requests
on the same connection can reuse it
- replace show_nux with structured availability_nux model metadata
- expose availability NUX data through the app-server model API
- update shared fixtures and tests for the new field
## Summary
- make `Config.model_reasoning_summary` optional so unset means use
model default
- resolve the optional config value to a concrete summary when building
`TurnContext`
- add protocol support for `default_reasoning_summary` in model metadata
## Validation
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib client::tests -- --nocapture`

Adds a new v2 app-server API for a client to be able to unsubscribe to a
thread:
- New RPC method: `thread/unsubscribe`
- New server notification: `thread/closed`
Today clients can start/resume/archive threads, but there wasn’t a way
to explicitly unload a live thread from memory without archiving it.
With `thread/unsubscribe`, a client can indicate it is no longer
actively working with a live Thread. If this is the only client
subscribed to that given thread, the thread will be automatically closed
by app-server, at which point the server will send `thread/closed` and
`thread/status/changed` with `status: notLoaded` notifications.
This gives clients a way to prevent long-running app-server processes
from accumulating too many thread (and related) objects in memory.
Closed threads will also be removed from `thread/loaded/list`.
Add experimental `thread/realtime/*` v2 requests and notifications, then
route app-server realtime events through that thread-scoped surface with
integration coverage.

rm `PRESETS` list harcoded in `model_presets` as we now have bundled
`models.json` with equivalent info.
update logic to rely on bundled models instead, update tests.
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`.
## Why
Several tests intentionally exercise behavior while a turn is still
active. The cleanup sequence for those tests (`turn/interrupt` + waiting
for `codex/event/turn_aborted`) was duplicated across files, which made
the rationale easy to lose and the pattern easy to apply inconsistently.
This change centralizes that cleanup in one place with a single
explanatory doc comment.
## What Changed
### Added shared helper
In `codex-rs/app-server/tests/common/mcp_process.rs`:
- Added `McpProcess::interrupt_turn_and_wait_for_aborted(...)`.
- Added a doc comment explaining why explicit interrupt + terminal wait
is required for tests that intentionally leave a turn in-flight.
### Migrated call sites
Replaced duplicated interrupt/aborted blocks with the helper in:
- `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/thread_resume.rs`
- `thread_resume_rejects_history_when_thread_is_running`
- `thread_resume_rejects_mismatched_path_when_thread_is_running`
- `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/turn_start_zsh_fork.rs`
- `turn_start_shell_zsh_fork_executes_command_v2`
-
`turn_start_shell_zsh_fork_subcommand_decline_marks_parent_declined_v2`
- `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/turn_steer.rs`
- `turn_steer_returns_active_turn_id`
### Existing cleanup retained
In `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/turn_start.rs`:
- `turn_start_accepts_local_image_input` continues to explicitly wait
for `turn/completed` so the turn lifecycle is fully drained before test
exit.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server`
## Why
`cargo nextest` was intermittently reporting `LEAK` for
`codex-app-server` tests even when assertions passed. This adds noise
and flakiness to local/CI signals.
Sample output used as the basis of this investigation:

```
## How I Reproduced
I focused on the suspect tests and ran them under `nextest` stress mode
with leak reporting enabled.
```bash
cargo nextest run -p codex-app-server -j 2 --no-fail-fast --stress-count 25 --status-level leak --final-status-level fail -E 'test(suite::output_schema::send_user_turn_output_schema_is_per_turn_v1) | test(suite::v2::dynamic_tools::dynamic_tool_call_round_trip_sends_text_content_items_to_model) | test(suite::v2::dynamic_tools::thread_start_injects_dynamic_tools_into_model_requests) | test(suite::v2::output_schema::turn_start_accepts_output_schema_v2) | test(suite::v2::plan_item::plan_mode_uses_proposed_plan_block_for_plan_item) | test(suite::v2::safety_check_downgrade::openai_model_header_mismatch_emits_model_rerouted_notification_v2) | test(suite::v2::turn_start::turn_start_accepts_collaboration_mode_override_v2) | test(suite::v2::turn_start::turn_start_accepts_personality_override_v2)'
```
This reproduced intermittent `LEAK` statuses while tests still passed.
## What Changed
In `codex-rs/app-server/tests/common/mcp_process.rs`:
- Changed `stdin: ChildStdin` to `stdin: Option<ChildStdin>` so teardown
can explicitly close stdin.
- In `Drop`, close stdin first to trigger EOF-based graceful shutdown.
- Wait briefly for graceful exit.
- If still running, fall back to `start_kill()` and the existing bounded
`try_wait()` loop.
- Updated send-path handling to bail if stdin is already closed.
## Why This Is the Right Fix
The leak signal was caused by child-process teardown timing, not
test-logic assertion failure. The helper previously relied mostly on
force-kill timing in `Drop`; that can race with nextest leak detection.
Closing stdin first gives `codex-app-server` a deterministic, graceful
shutdown path before force-kill. Keeping the force-kill fallback
preserves robustness if graceful shutdown does not complete in time.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server`
- Re-ran the stress repro above after this change: no `LEAK` statuses
observed.
- Additional high-signal stress run also showed no leaks:
```bash
cargo nextest run -p codex-app-server -j 2 --no-fail-fast --stress-count 100 --status-level leak --final-status-level fail -E 'test(suite::output_schema::send_user_turn_output_schema_is_per_turn_v1) | test(suite::v2::dynamic_tools::dynamic_tool_call_round_trip_sends_text_content_items_to_model)'
```
## Summary
- stabilize
`thread_resume_rejoins_running_thread_even_with_override_mismatch` by
using a valid delayed second SSE response instead of an intentionally
truncated stream
- set `RUST_MIN_STACK=4194304` for spawned app-server test processes in
`McpProcess` to avoid stack-sensitive CI overflows in detached review
tests
## Why
- the thread-resume assertion could race with a mocked stream-disconnect
error and intermittently observe `systemError`
- detached review startup is stack-sensitive in some CI environments;
pinning a larger stack in the test harness removes that flake without
changing product behavior
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server --test all
suite::v2::thread_resume::thread_resume_rejoins_running_thread_even_with_override_mismatch`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server --test all
suite::v2::review::review_start_with_detached_delivery_returns_new_thread_id`
app-server support for initiating Windows sandbox setup.
server responds quickly to setup request and makes a future RPC call
back to client when the setup finishes.
The TUI implementation is unaffected but in a future PR I'll update the
TUI to use the shared setup helper
(`windows_sandbox.run_windows_sandbox_setup`)
rm `remote_models` feature flag.
We see issues like #11527 when a user has `remote_models` disabled, as
we always use the default fallback `ModelInfo`. This causes issues with
model performance.
Builds on #11690, which helps by warning the user when they are using
the default fallback. This PR will make that happen much less frequently
as an accidental consequence of disabling `remote_models`.
### What
It's currently unclear when the harness falls back to the default,
generic `ModelInfo`. This happens when the `remote_models` feature is
disabled or the model is truly unknown, and can lead to bad performance
and issues in the harness.
Add a user-facing warning when this happens so they are aware when their
setup is broken.
### Tests
Added tests, tested locally.
Reapply "Add app-server transport layer with websocket support" with
additional fixes from https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/11313/changes
to avoid deadlocking.
This reverts commit 47356ff83c.
## Summary
To avoid deadlocking when queues are full, we maintain separate tokio
tasks dedicated to incoming vs outgoing event handling
- split the app-server main loop into two tasks in
`run_main_with_transport`
- inbound handling (`transport_event_rx`)
- outbound handling (`outgoing_rx` + `thread_created_rx`)
- separate incoming and outgoing websocket tasks
## Validation
Integration tests, testing thoroughly e2e in codex app w/ >10 concurrent
requests

## Why
`codex-core` was being built in multiple feature-resolved permutations
because test-only behavior was modeled as crate features. For a large
crate, those permutations increase compile cost and reduce cache reuse.
## Net Change
- Removed the `test-support` crate feature and related feature wiring so
`codex-core` no longer needs separate feature shapes for test consumers.
- Standardized cross-crate test-only access behind
`codex_core::test_support`.
- External test code now imports helpers from
`codex_core::test_support`.
- Underlying implementation hooks are kept internal (`pub(crate)`)
instead of broadly public.
## Outcome
- Fewer `codex-core` build permutations.
- Better incremental cache reuse across test targets.
- No intended production behavior change.
