## Why
The explicit profile path from #20117 is meant for standalone testing,
but it still inherited the
shell cwd and all managed requirements implicitly. The pre-existing
launcher path even called out
that it did not support a separate cwd yet in
[`debug_sandbox.rs`](509453f688/codex-rs/cli/src/debug_sandbox.rs (L174-L179)).
For a standalone command, the useful default is to let the caller choose
the project directory being
tested and to avoid administrator-provided constraints unless the caller
explicitly wants to test
those too.
## What changed
- Add explicit-profile-only `-C/--cd DIR`, and use that cwd for both
profile resolution and command
execution.
- Add explicit-profile-only `--include-managed-config`.
- Make explicit profile mode skip managed requirement sources by
default, including cloud
requirements, MDM requirements, `/etc/codex/requirements.toml`, and the
legacy managed-config
requirements projection.
- Preserve all existing invocations outside the explicit-profile path.
## Stack
1. #20117 `sandbox-ui-profile`
2. #20118 `sandbox-ui-config` --> this PR
Both PRs are additive. Replay JSON is intentionally deferred to a
follow-up design pass.
## Tests ran
- `cargo test -p codex-cli debug_sandbox`
- `cargo test -p codex-cli sandbox_macos_`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
load_config_layers_can_ignore_managed_requirements`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
load_config_layers_includes_cloud_requirements`
- macOS branch-binary smoke on the rebased top of stack: `-C` changed
execution cwd, explicit
profile mode omitted managed proxy env under `env -i`, and
`--include-managed-config` restored it.
- Linux devbox branch-binary smoke on the rebased top of stack: `-C`
changed execution cwd for
built-in and user-defined explicit profiles.
## Summary
- Extracted the shared filesystem types and `ExecutorFileSystem` trait
into a new `codex-file-system` crate
- Switched `codex-config` and `codex-git-utils` to depend on that crate
instead of `codex-exec-server`
- Kept `codex-exec-server` re-exporting the same API for existing
callers
## Testing
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-file-system`
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-git-utils`
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-config`
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-exec-server`
- Ran `just fix -p codex-file-system`, `just fix -p codex-git-utils`,
`just fix -p codex-config`, `just fix -p codex-exec-server`
- Ran `just fmt`
- Updated and verified the Bazel module lockfile
# Why
Requirements support host-specific
`remote_sandbox_config.hostname_patterns`, but config loading previously
resolved and passed the system hostname through every config-loading
path even when no requirements layer used `remote_sandbox_config`. On
machines where hostname lookup is slow, startup and app-server config
reads paid for a feature that was not active.
We only need the hostname when a requirements layer actually declares
`remote_sandbox_config`, so this moves hostname resolution to the single
requirements merge point and keeps all other config callers unaware of
hostname matching.
# What
- Removed the eager `host_name` plumbing from
`load_config_layers_state`, `load_requirements_toml`, `ConfigBuilder`,
app-server `ConfigManager`, network proxy loading, and related call
sites.
- Resolve the hostname inside
`merge_requirements_with_remote_sandbox_config` only when the incoming
requirements contain `remote_sandbox_config`.
## Why
Config loading had become split across crates: `codex-config` owned the
config types and merge logic, while `codex-core` still owned the loader
that assembled the layer stack. This change consolidates that
responsibility in `codex-config`, so the crate that defines config
behavior also owns how configs are discovered and loaded.
To make that move possible without reintroducing the old dependency
cycle, the shell-environment policy types and helpers that
`codex-exec-server` needs now live in `codex-protocol` instead of
flowing through `codex-config`.
This also makes the migrated loader tests more deterministic on machines
that already have managed or system Codex config installed by letting
tests override the system config and requirements paths instead of
reading the host's `/etc/codex`.
## What Changed
- moved the config loader implementation from `codex-core` into
`codex-config::loader` and deleted the old `core::config_loader` module
instead of leaving a compatibility shim
- moved shell-environment policy types and helpers into
`codex-protocol`, then updated `codex-exec-server` and other downstream
crates to import them from their new home
- updated downstream callers to use loader/config APIs from
`codex-config`
- added test-only loader overrides for system config and requirements
paths so loader-focused tests do not depend on host-managed config state
- cleaned up now-unused dependency entries and platform-specific cfgs
that were surfaced by post-push CI
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-config`
- `cargo test -p codex-core config_loader_tests::`
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol -p codex-exec-server -p
codex-cloud-requirements -p codex-rmcp-client --lib`
- `cargo test --lib -p codex-app-server-client -p codex-exec`
- `cargo test --no-run --lib -p codex-app-server`
- `cargo test -p codex-linux-sandbox --lib`
- `cargo shear`
- `just bazel-lock-check`
## Notes
- I did not chase unrelated full-suite failures outside the migrated
loader surface.
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib` still hits unrelated proxy-sensitive
failures on this machine, and Windows CI still shows unrelated
long-running/timeouting test noise outside the loader migration itself.
