- [x] Expand tool search to custom MCPs.
- [x] Rename several variables/fields to be more generic.
Updated tool & server name lifecycles:
**Raw Identity**
ToolInfo.server_name is raw MCP server name.
ToolInfo.tool.name is raw MCP tool name.
MCP calls route back to raw via parse_tool_name() returning
(tool.server_name, tool.tool.name).
mcpServerStatus/list now groups by raw server and keys tools by
Tool.name: mod.rs:599
App-server just forwards that grouped raw snapshot:
codex_message_processor.rs:5245
**Callable Names**
On list-tools, we create provisional callable_namespace / callable_name:
mcp_connection_manager.rs:1556
For non-app MCP, provisional callable name starts as raw tool name.
For codex-apps, provisional callable name is sanitized and strips
connector name/id prefix; namespace includes connector name.
Then qualify_tools() sanitizes callable namespace + name to ASCII alnum
/ _ only: mcp_tool_names.rs:128
Note: this is stricter than Responses API. Hyphen is currently replaced
with _ for code-mode compatibility.
**Collision Handling**
We do initially collapse example-server and example_server to the same
base.
Then qualify_tools() detects distinct raw namespace identities behind
the same sanitized namespace and appends a hash to the callable
namespace: mcp_tool_names.rs:137
Same idea for tool-name collisions: hash suffix goes on callable tool
name.
Final list_all_tools() map key is callable_namespace + callable_name:
mcp_connection_manager.rs:769
**Direct Model Tools**
Direct MCP tool declarations use the full qualified sanitized key as the
Responses function name.
The raw rmcp Tool is converted but renamed for model exposure.
**Tool Search / Deferred**
Tool search result namespace = final ToolInfo.callable_namespace:
tool_search.rs:85
Tool search result nested name = final ToolInfo.callable_name:
tool_search.rs:86
Deferred tool handler is registered as "{namespace}:{name}":
tool_registry_plan.rs:248
When a function call comes back, core recombines namespace + name, looks
up the full qualified key, and gets the raw server/tool for MCP
execution: codex.rs:4353
**Separate Legacy Snapshot**
collect_mcp_snapshot_from_manager_with_detail() still returns a map
keyed by qualified callable name.
mcpServerStatus/list no longer uses that; it uses
McpServerStatusSnapshot, which is raw-inventory shaped.
Addresses #16244
This was a performance regression introduced when we moved the TUI on
top of the app server API.
Problem: `/mcp` rebuilt a full MCP inventory through
`mcpServerStatus/list`, including resources and resource templates that
made the TUI wait on slow inventory probes.
Solution: add a lightweight `detail` mode to `mcpServerStatus/list`,
have `/mcp` request tools-and-auth only, and cover the fast path with
app-server and TUI tests.
Testing: Confirmed slow (multi-second) response prior to change and
immediate response after change.
I considered two options:
1. Change the existing `mcpServerStatus/list` API to accept an optional
"details" parameter so callers can request only a subset of the
information.
2. Add a separate `mcpServer/list` API that returns only the servers,
tools, and auth but omits the resources.
I chose option 1, but option 2 is also a reasonable approach.
Addresses #16671 and #14927
Problem: `mcpServerStatus/list` rebuilt MCP tool groups from sanitized
tool prefixes but looked them up by unsanitized server names, so
hyphenated servers rendered as having no tools in `/mcp`. This was
reported as a regression when the TUI switched to use the app server.
Solution: Build each server's tool map using the original server name's
sanitized prefix, include effective runtime MCP servers in the status
response, and add a regression test for hyphenated server names.
