Resubmit https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/15020 with correct
content.
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.
## Summary
This PR makes `thread/resume` reuse persisted thread model metadata when
the caller does not explicitly override it.
Changes:
- read persisted thread metadata from SQLite during `thread/resume`
- reuse persisted `model` and `model_reasoning_effort` as resume-time
defaults
- fetch persisted metadata once and reuse it later in the resume
response path
- keep thread summary loading on the existing rollout path, while
reusing persisted metadata when available
- document the resume fallback behavior in the app-server README
## Why
Before this change, resuming a thread without explicit overrides derived
`model` and `model_reasoning_effort` from current config, which could
drift from the thread’s last persisted values. That meant a resumed
thread could report and run with different model settings than the ones
it previously used.
## Behavior
Precedence on `thread/resume` is now:
1. explicit resume overrides
2. persisted SQLite metadata for the thread
3. normal config resolution for the resumed cwd
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.
## Summary
- move `guardian_developer_instructions` from managed config into
workspace-managed `requirements.toml`
- have guardian continue using the override when present and otherwise
fall back to the bundled local guardian prompt
- keep the generalized prompt-quality improvements in the shared
guardian default prompt
- update requirements parsing, layering, schema, and tests for the new
source of truth
## Context
This replaces the earlier managed-config / MDM rollout plan.
The intended rollout path is workspace-managed requirements, including
cloud enterprise policies, rather than backend model metadata, Statsig,
or Jamf-managed config. That keeps the default/fallback behavior local
to `codex-rs` while allowing faster policy updates through the
enterprise requirements plane.
This is intentionally an admin-managed policy input, not a user
preference: the guardian prompt should come either from the bundled
`codex-rs` default or from enterprise-managed `requirements.toml`, and
normal user/project/session config should not override it.
## Updating The OpenAI Prompt
After this lands, the OpenAI-specific guardian prompt should be updated
through the workspace Policies UI at `/codex/settings/policies` rather
than through Jamf or codex-backend model metadata.
Operationally:
- open the workspace Policies editor as a Codex admin
- edit the default `requirements.toml` policy, or a higher-precedence
group-scoped override if we ever want different behavior for a subset of
users
- set `guardian_developer_instructions = """..."""` to the full
OpenAI-specific guardian prompt text
- save the policy; codex-backend stores the raw TOML and `codex-rs`
fetches the effective requirements file from `/wham/config/requirements`
When updating the OpenAI-specific prompt, keep it aligned with the
shared default guardian policy in `codex-rs` except for intentional
OpenAI-only additions.
## Testing
- `cargo check --tests -p codex-core -p codex-config -p
codex-cloud-requirements --message-format short`
- `cargo run -p codex-core --bin codex-write-config-schema`
- `cargo fmt`
- `git diff --check`

Adds an environment crate and environment + file system abstraction.
Environment is a combination of attributes and services specific to
environment the agent is connected to:
File system, process management, OS, default shell.
The goal is to move most of agent logic that assumes environment to work
through the environment abstraction.
- Add shared Product support to marketplace plugin policy and skill
policy (no enforced yet).
- Move marketplace installation/authentication under policy and model it
as MarketplacePluginPolicy.
- Rename plugin/marketplace local manifest types to separate raw serde
shapes from resolved in-memory models.
## Problem
Ubuntu/AppArmor hosts started failing in the default Linux sandbox path
after the switch to vendored/default bubblewrap in `0.115.0`.
The clearest report is in
[#14919](https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/14919), especially [this
investigation
comment](https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/14919#issuecomment-4076504751):
on affected Ubuntu systems, `/usr/bin/bwrap` works, but a copied or
vendored `bwrap` binary fails with errors like `bwrap: setting up uid
map: Permission denied` or `bwrap: loopback: Failed RTM_NEWADDR:
Operation not permitted`.
The root cause is Ubuntu's `/etc/apparmor.d/bwrap-userns-restrict`
profile, which grants `userns` access specifically to `/usr/bin/bwrap`.
Once Codex started using a vendored/internal bubblewrap path, that path
was no longer covered by the distro AppArmor exception, so sandbox
namespace setup could fail even when user namespaces were otherwise
enabled and `uidmap` was installed.
## What this PR changes
- prefer system `/usr/bin/bwrap` whenever it is available
- keep vendored bubblewrap as the fallback when `/usr/bin/bwrap` is
missing
- when `/usr/bin/bwrap` is missing, surface a Codex startup warning
through the app-server/TUI warning path instead of printing directly
from the sandbox helper with `eprintln!`
- use the same launcher decision for both the main sandbox execution
path and the `/proc` preflight path
- document the updated Linux bubblewrap behavior in the Linux sandbox
and core READMEs
## Why this fix
This still fixes the Ubuntu/AppArmor regression from
[#14919](https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/14919), but it keeps the
runtime rule simple and platform-agnostic: if the standard system
bubblewrap is installed, use it; otherwise fall back to the vendored
helper.
The warning now follows that same simple rule. If Codex cannot find
`/usr/bin/bwrap`, it tells the user that it is falling back to the
vendored helper, and it does so through the existing startup warning
plumbing that reaches the TUI and app-server instead of low-level
sandbox stderr.
## Testing

- thread the realtime version into conversation start and app-server
notifications
- keep playback-aware mic gating and playback interruption behavior on
v2 only, leaving v1 on the legacy path
## 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.

- Added forceRemoteSync to plugin/install and plugin/uninstall.
- With forceRemoteSync=true, we update the remote plugin status first,
then apply the local change only if the backend call succeeds.
- Kept plugin/list(forceRemoteSync=true) as the main recon path, and for
now it treats remote enabled=false as uninstall. We
will eventually migrate to plugin/installed for more precise state
handling.
## 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

The issue was due to a circular `Drop` schema where the embedded
app-server wait for some listeners that wait for this app-server
them-selves.
The fix is an explicit cleaning
**Repro:**

* It takes 5s to exit
### Motivation
- Interrupting a running turn (Ctrl+C / Esc) currently also terminates
long‑running background shells, which is surprising for workflows like
local dev servers or file watchers.
- The existing cleanup command name was confusing; callers expect an
explicit command to stop background terminals rather than a UI clear
action.
- Make background‑shell termination explicit and surface a clearer
command name while preserving backward compatibility.
### Description
- Renamed the background‑terminal cleanup slash command from `Clean`
(`/clean`) to `Stop` (`/stop`) and kept `clean` as an alias in the
command parsing/visibility layer, updated the user descriptions and
command popup wiring accordingly.
- Updated the unified‑exec footer text and snapshots to point to `/stop`
(and trimmed corresponding snapshot output to match the new label).
- Changed interrupt behavior so `Op::Interrupt` (Ctrl+C / Esc interrupt)
no longer closes or clears tracked unified exec / background terminal
processes in the TUI or core cleanup path; background shells are now
preserved after an interrupt.
- Updated protocol/docs to clarify that `turn/interrupt` (or
`Op::Interrupt`) interrupts the active turn but does not terminate
background terminals, and that `thread/backgroundTerminals/clean` is the
explicit API to stop those shells.
- Updated unit/integration tests and insta snapshots in the TUI and core
unified‑exec suites to reflect the new semantics and command name.
### Testing
- Ran formatting with `just fmt` in `codex-rs` (succeeded).
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-protocol` (succeeded).
- Attempted `cargo test -p codex-tui` but the build could not complete
in this environment due to a native build dependency that requires
`libcap` development headers (the `codex-linux-sandbox` vendored build
step); install `libcap-dev` / make `libcap.pc` available in
`PKG_CONFIG_PATH` to run the TUI test suite locally.
- Updated and accepted the affected `insta` snapshots for the TUI
changes so visual diffs reflect the new `/stop` wording and preserved
interrupt behavior.

This extends dynamic_tool_calls to allow us to hide a tool from the
model context but still use it as part of the general tool calling
runtime (for ex from js_repl/code_mode)
make plugins' `defaultPrompt` an array, but keep backcompat for strings.
the array is limited by app-server to 3 entries of up to 128 chars
(drops extra entries, `None`s-out ones that are too long) without
erroring if those invariants are violating.
added tests, tested locally.
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
## Summary
- add `approvals_reviewer = "user" | "guardian_subagent"` as the runtime
control for who reviews approval requests
- route Smart Approvals guardian review through core for command
execution, file changes, managed-network approvals, MCP approvals, and
delegated/subagent approval flows
- expose guardian review in app-server with temporary unstable
`item/autoApprovalReview/{started,completed}` notifications carrying
`targetItemId`, `review`, and `action`
- update the TUI so Smart Approvals can be enabled from `/experimental`,
aligned with the matching `/approvals` mode, and surfaced clearly while
reviews are pending or resolved
## Runtime model
This PR does not introduce a new `approval_policy`.
Instead:
- `approval_policy` still controls when approval is needed
- `approvals_reviewer` controls who reviewable approval requests are
routed to:
- `user`
- `guardian_subagent`
`guardian_subagent` is a carefully prompted reviewer subagent that
gathers relevant context and applies a risk-based decision framework
before approving or denying the request.
The `smart_approvals` feature flag is a rollout/UI gate. Core runtime
behavior keys off `approvals_reviewer`.
When Smart Approvals is enabled from the TUI, it also switches the
current `/approvals` settings to the matching Smart Approvals mode so
users immediately see guardian review in the active thread:
- `approval_policy = on-request`
- `approvals_reviewer = guardian_subagent`
- `sandbox_mode = workspace-write`
Users can still change `/approvals` afterward.
Config-load behavior stays intentionally narrow:
- plain `smart_approvals = true` in `config.toml` remains just the
rollout/UI gate and does not auto-set `approvals_reviewer`
- the deprecated `guardian_approval = true` alias migration does
backfill `approvals_reviewer = "guardian_subagent"` in the same scope
when that reviewer is not already configured there, so old configs
preserve their original guardian-enabled behavior
ARC remains a separate safety check. For MCP tool approvals, ARC
escalations now flow into the configured reviewer instead of always
bypassing guardian and forcing manual review.
## Config stability
The runtime reviewer override is stable, but the config-backed
app-server protocol shape is still settling.
- `thread/start`, `thread/resume`, and `turn/start` keep stable
`approvalsReviewer` overrides
- the config-backed `approvals_reviewer` exposure returned via
`config/read` (including profile-level config) is now marked
`[UNSTABLE]` / experimental in the app-server protocol until we are more
confident in that config surface
## App-server surface
This PR intentionally keeps the guardian app-server shape narrow and
temporary.
It adds generic unstable lifecycle notifications:
- `item/autoApprovalReview/started`
- `item/autoApprovalReview/completed`
with payloads of the form:
- `{ threadId, turnId, targetItemId, review, action? }`
`review` is currently:
- `{ status, riskScore?, riskLevel?, rationale? }`
- where `status` is one of `inProgress`, `approved`, `denied`, or
`aborted`
`action` carries the guardian action summary payload from core when
available. This lets clients render temporary standalone pending-review
UI, including parallel reviews, even when the underlying tool item has
not been emitted yet.
These notifications are explicitly documented as `[UNSTABLE]` and
expected to change soon.
This PR does **not** persist guardian review state onto `thread/read`
tool items. The intended follow-up is to attach guardian review state to
the reviewed tool item lifecycle instead, which would improve
consistency with manual approvals and allow thread history / reconnect
flows to replay guardian review state directly.
## TUI behavior
- `/experimental` exposes the rollout gate as `Smart Approvals`
- enabling it in the TUI enables the feature and switches the current
session to the matching Smart Approvals `/approvals` mode
- disabling it in the TUI clears the persisted `approvals_reviewer`
override when appropriate and returns the session to default manual
review when the effective reviewer changes
- `/approvals` still exposes the reviewer choice directly
- the TUI renders:
- pending guardian review state in the live status footer, including
parallel review aggregation
- resolved approval/denial state in history
## Scope notes
This PR includes the supporting core/runtime work needed to make Smart
Approvals usable end-to-end:
- shell / unified-exec / apply_patch / managed-network / MCP guardian
review
- delegated/subagent approval routing into guardian review
- guardian review risk metadata and action summaries for app-server/TUI
- config/profile/TUI handling for `smart_approvals`, `guardian_approval`
alias migration, and `approvals_reviewer`
- a small internal cleanup of delegated approval forwarding to dedupe
fallback paths and simplify guardian-vs-parent approval waiting (no
intended behavior change)
Out of scope for this PR:
- redesigning the existing manual approval protocol shapes
- persisting guardian review state onto app-server `ThreadItem`s
- delegated MCP elicitation auto-review (the current delegated MCP
guardian shim only covers the legacy `RequestUserInput` path)

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 expands tracing coverage across app-server thread startup, core
session initialization, and the Responses transport layer. It also gives
core dispatch spans stable operation-specific names so traces are easier
to follow than the old generic `submission_dispatch` spans.
Also use `fmt::Display` for types that we serialize in traces so we send
strings instead of rust types
This PR changes app and connector enablement when `requirements.toml` is
present locally or via remote configuration.
For apps.* entries:
- `enabled = false` in `requirements.toml` overrides the user’s local
`config.toml` and forces the app to be disabled.
- `enabled = true` in `requirements.toml` does not re-enable an app the
user has disabled in config.toml.
This behavior applies whether or not the user has an explicit entry for
that app in `config.toml`. It also applies to cloud-managed policies and
configurations when the admin sets the override through
`requirements.toml`.
Scenarios tested and verified:
- Remote managed, user config (present) override
- Admin-defined policies & configurations include a connector override:
`[apps.<appID>]
enabled = false`
- User's config.toml has the same connector configured with `enabled =
true`
- TUI/App should show connector as disabled
- Connector should be unavailable for use in the composer
- Remote managed, user config (absent) override
- Admin-defined policies & configurations include a connector override:
`[apps.<appID>]
enabled = false`
- User's config.toml has no entry for the the same connector
- TUI/App should show connector as disabled
- Connector should be unavailable for use in the composer
- Locally managed, user config (present) override
- Local requirements.toml includes a connector override:
`[apps.<appID>]
enabled = false`
- User's config.toml has the same connector configured with `enabled =
true`
- TUI/App should show connector as disabled
- Connector should be unavailable for use in the composer
- Locally managed, user config (absent) override
- Local requirements.toml includes a connector override:
`[apps.<appID>]
enabled = false`
- User's config.toml has no entry for the the same connector
- TUI/App should show connector as disabled
- Connector should be unavailable for use in the composer

This PR is part of the effort to move the TUI on top of the app server.
In a previous PR, we introduced an in-process app server and moved
`exec` on top of it.
For the TUI, we want to do the migration in stages. The app server
doesn't currently expose all of the functionality required by the TUI,
so we're going to need to support a hybrid approach as we make the
transition.
This PR changes the TUI initialization to instantiate an in-process app
server and access its `AuthManager` and `ThreadManager` rather than
constructing its own copies. It also adds a placeholder TUI event
handler that will eventually translate app server events into TUI
events. App server notifications are accepted but ignored for now. It
also adds proper shutdown of the app server when the TUI terminates.
## Summary
- launch Windows sandboxed children on a private desktop instead of
`Winsta0\Default`
- make private desktop the default while keeping
`windows.sandbox_private_desktop=false` as the escape hatch
- centralize process launch through the shared
`create_process_as_user(...)` path
- scope the private desktop ACL to the launching logon SID
## Why
Today sandboxed Windows commands run on the visible shared desktop. That
leaves an avoidable same-desktop attack surface for window interaction,
spoofing, and related UI/input issues. This change moves sandboxed
commands onto a dedicated per-launch desktop by default so the sandbox
no longer shares `Winsta0\Default` with the user session.
The implementation stays conservative on security with no silent
fallback back to `Winsta0\Default`
If private-desktop setup fails on a machine, users can still opt out
explicitly with `windows.sandbox_private_desktop=false`.
## Validation
- `cargo build -p codex-cli`
- elevated-path `codex exec` desktop-name probe returned
`CodexSandboxDesktop-*`
- elevated-path `codex exec` smoke sweep for shell commands, nested
`pwsh`, jobs, and hidden `notepad` launch
- unelevated-path full private-desktop compatibility sweep via `codex
exec` with `-c windows.sandbox=unelevated`
Refactors cloud requirements error handling to carry structured error
metadata and surfaces that metadata through JSON-RPC config-load
failures, including:
* adds typed CloudRequirementsLoadErrorCode values plus optional
statusCode
* marks thread/start, thread/resume, and thread/fork config failures
with structured cloud-requirements error data
This makes the test less flaky by checking the core invariant instead of
the full span chain.
Before, the test waited for several specific internal spans
(`submission_dispatch`, `session_task.turn`, `run_turn`) and asserted
their exact relationships. That was brittle because those spans are
exported asynchronously and are more of an implementation detail than
the thing we actually care about.
Now, the test only checks that:
- `turn/start` is on the expected remote trace with the expected remote
parent
- at least one representative core turn span on that same trace descends
from it
That keeps the sanity-check we want while making the test less sensitive
to timing and internal refactors.
Fixes [#8889](https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/8889).
## Summary
- Discover and use advertised MCP OAuth `scopes_supported` when no
explicit or configured scopes are present.
- Apply the same scope precedence across `mcp add`, `mcp login`, skill
dependency auto-login, and app-server MCP OAuth login.
- Keep discovered scopes ephemeral and non-persistent.
- Retry once without scopes for CLI and skill auto-login flows if the
OAuth provider rejects discovered scopes.
## Motivation
Some MCP servers advertise the scopes they expect clients to request
during OAuth, but Codex was ignoring that metadata and typically
starting OAuth with no scopes unless the user manually passed `--scopes`
or configured `server.scopes`.
That made compliant MCP servers harder to use out of the box and is the
behavior described in
[#8889](https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/8889).
This change also brings our behavior in line with the MCP authorization
spec's scope selection guidance:
https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-11-25/basic/authorization#scope-selection-strategy
## Behavior
Scope selection now follows this order everywhere:
1. Explicit request scopes / CLI `--scopes`
2. Configured `server.scopes`
3. Discovered `scopes_supported`
4. Legacy empty-scope behavior
Compatibility notes:
- Existing working setups keep the same behavior because explicit and
configured scopes still win.
- Discovered scopes are never written back into config or token storage.
- If discovery is missing, malformed, or empty, behavior falls back to
the previous empty-scope path.
- App-server login gets the same precedence rules, but does not add a
transparent retry path in this change.
## Implementation
- Extend streamable HTTP OAuth discovery to parse and normalize
`scopes_supported`.
- Add a shared MCP scope resolver in `core` so all login entrypoints use
the same precedence rules.
- Preserve provider callback errors from the OAuth flow so CLI/skill
flows can safely distinguish provider rejections from other failures.
- Reuse discovered scopes from the existing OAuth support check where
possible instead of persisting new config.
## Summary
- make bubblewrap the default Linux sandbox and keep
`use_legacy_landlock` as the only override
- remove `use_linux_sandbox_bwrap` from feature, config, schema, and
docs surfaces
- update Linux sandbox selection, CLI/config plumbing, and related
tests/docs to match the new default
- fold in the follow-up CI fixes for request-permissions responses and
Linux read-only sandbox error text
- Curated repo sync now uses GitHub HTTP, not local git.
- Curated plugin cache/versioning now uses commit SHA instead of local.
- Startup sync now always repairs or refreshes curated plugin cache from
tmp (auto update to the lastest)
make `AVAILABLE` the default plugin installPolicy when unset in
`marketplace.json`. similarly, make `ON_INSTALL` the default authPolicy.
this means, when unset, plugins are available to be installed (but not
auto-installed), and the contained connectors will be authed at
install-time.
updated tests.
