## Summary
Allow guardian to skip other fields and output only
`{"outcome":"allow"}` when the command is low risk.
This change lets guardian reviews use a non-strict text format while
keeping the JSON schema itself as plain user-visible schema data, so
transport strictness is carried out-of-band instead of through a schema
marker key.
## What changed
- Add an explicit `output_schema_strict` flag to model prompts and pass
it into `codex-api` text formatting.
- Set guardian reviewer prompts to non-strict schema validation while
preserving strict-by-default behavior for normal callers.
- Update the guardian output contract so definitely-low-risk decisions
may return only `{"outcome":"allow"}`.
- Treat bare allow responses as low-risk approvals in the guardian
parser.
- Add tests and snapshots covering the non-strict guardian request and
optional guardian output fields.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-core guardian::tests::guardian`
- `cargo test -p codex-core guardian::tests::`
- `cargo test -p codex-core client_common::tests::`
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol
user_input_serialization_includes_final_output_json_schema`
- `cargo test -p codex-api`
- `git diff --check`
Note: `cargo test -p codex-core` was also attempted, but this desktop
environment injects ambient config/proxy state that causes unrelated
config/session tests expecting pristine defaults to fail.

Adds new events for streaming apply_patch changes from responses api.
This is to enable clients to show progress during file writes.
Caveat: This does not work with apply_patch in function call mode, since
that required adding streaming json parsing.
## Summary
- omit serialized Responses instructions when an app-server base
instruction override is empty
- skip empty developer instruction messages and add v2 coverage for the
empty-override request shape
## Validation
- just fmt
- git diff --check
## Summary
This adds a stable Codex installation ID and includes it on Responses
API requests via `x-codex-installation-id` passed in via the
`client_metadata` field for analytics/debugging.
The main pieces are:
- persist a UUID in `$CODEX_HOME/installation_id`
- thread the installation ID into `ModelClient`
- send it in `client_metadata` on Responses requests so it works
consistently across HTTP and WebSocket transports
## Description
Dependent on:
- [responsesapi] https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/760991
- [codex-backend] https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/760985
`codex app-server -> codex-backend -> responsesapi` now reuses a
persistent websocket connection across many turns. This PR updates
tracing when using websockets so that each `response.create` websocket
request propagates the current tracing context, so we can get a holistic
end-to-end trace for each turn.
Tracing is propagated via special keys (`ws_request_header_traceparent`,
`ws_request_header_tracestate`) set in the `client_metadata` param in
Responses API.
Currently tracing on websockets is a bit broken because we only set
tracing context on ws connection time, so it's detached from a
`turn/start` request.
Pass more params to /compact. This should give us parity with the
/responses endpoint to improve caching.
I'm torn about the MCP await. Blocking will give us parity but it seems
like we explicitly don't block on MCPs. Happy either way
- add a local Fast mode setting in codex-core (similar to how model id
is currently stored on disk locally)
- send `service_tier=priority` on requests when Fast is enabled
- add `/fast` in the TUI and persist it locally
- feature flag
Send a request with `generate: falls` but a full set of tools and
instructions to pre-warm inference.

Add per-turn notice when a request is downgraded to a fallback model due
to cyber safety checks.
**Changes**
- codex-api: Emit a ServerModel event based on the openai-model response
header and/or response payload (SSE + WebSocket), including when the
model changes mid-stream.
- core: When the server-reported model differs from the requested model,
emit a single per-turn warning explaining the reroute to gpt-5.2 and
directing users to Trusted
Access verification and the cyber safety explainer.
- app-server (v2): Surface these cyber model-routing warnings as
synthetic userMessage items with text prefixed by Warning: (and document
this behavior).
- Introduce `openai_models` in `/core`
- Move `PRESETS` under it
- Move `ModelPreset`, `ModelUpgrade`, `ReasoningEffortPreset`,
`ReasoningEffortPreset`, and `ReasoningEffortPreset` to `protocol`
- Introduce `Op::ListModels` and `EventMsg::AvailableModels`
Next steps:
- migrate `app-server` and `tui` to use the introduced Operation
