## 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
to support a new bring your own search tool in Responses
API(https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/tools-tool-search#client-executed-tool-search)
we migrating our bm25 search tool to use official way to execute search
on client and communicate additional tools to the model.
## What
- replace the legacy `search_tool_bm25` flow with client-executed
`tool_search`
- add protocol, SSE, history, and normalization support for
`tool_search_call` and `tool_search_output`
- return namespaced Codex Apps search results and wire namespaced
follow-up tool calls back into MCP dispatch
This adds a first-class server request for MCP server elicitations:
`mcpServer/elicitation/request`.
Until now, MCP elicitation requests only showed up as a raw
`codex/event/elicitation_request` event from core. That made it hard for
v2 clients to handle elicitations using the same request/response flow
as other server-driven interactions (like shell and `apply_patch`
tools).
This also updates the underlying MCP elicitation request handling in
core to pass through the full MCP request (including URL and form data)
so we can expose it properly in app-server.
### Why not `item/mcpToolCall/elicitationRequest`?
This is because MCP elicitations are related to MCP servers first, and
only optionally to a specific MCP tool call.
In the MCP protocol, elicitation is a server-to-client capability: the
server sends `elicitation/create`, and the client replies with an
elicitation result. RMCP models it that way as well.
In practice an elicitation is often triggered by an MCP tool call, but
not always.
### What changed
- add `mcpServer/elicitation/request` to the v2 app-server API
- translate core `codex/event/elicitation_request` events into the new
v2 server request
- map client responses back into `Op::ResolveElicitation` so the MCP
server can continue
- update app-server docs and generated protocol schema
- add an end-to-end app-server test that covers the full round trip
through a real RMCP elicitation flow
- The new test exercises a realistic case where an MCP tool call
triggers an elicitation, the app-server emits
mcpServer/elicitation/request, the client accepts it, and the tool call
resumes and completes successfully.
### app-server API flow
- Client starts a thread with `thread/start`.
- Client starts a turn with `turn/start`.
- App-server sends `item/started` for the `mcpToolCall`.
- While that tool call is in progress, app-server sends
`mcpServer/elicitation/request`.
- Client responds to that request with `{ action: "accept" | "decline" |
"cancel" }`.
- App-server sends `serverRequest/resolved`.
- App-server sends `item/completed` for the mcpToolCall.
- App-server sends `turn/completed`.
- If the turn is interrupted while the elicitation is pending,
app-server still sends `serverRequest/resolved` before the turn
finishes.
