## Summary
- validate `js_repl` Node compatibility during session startup when the
experiment is enabled
- if Node is missing or too old, disable `js_repl` and
`js_repl_tools_only` for the session before tools and instructions are
built
- surface that startup disablement to users through the existing startup
warning flow instead of only logging it
- reuse the same compatibility check in js_repl kernel startup so
startup gating and runtime behavior stay aligned
- add a regression test that verifies the warning is emitted and that
the first advertised tool list omits `js_repl` and `js_repl_reset` when
Node is incompatible
## Why
Today `js_repl` can be advertised based only on the feature flag, then
fail later when the kernel starts. That makes the available tool list
inaccurate at the start of a conversation, and users do not get a clear
explanation for why the tool is unavailable.
This change makes tool availability reflect real startup checks, keeps
the advertised tool set stable for the lifetime of the session, and
gives users a visible warning when `js_repl` is disabled.
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
js_repl_is_not_advertised_when_startup_node_is_incompatible`
## Summary
Remove js_repl/node test-skip paths and make Node setup explicit in CI
so js_repl tests always run instead of silently skipping.
## Why
We had multiple “expediency” skip paths that let js_repl tests pass
without actually exercising Node-backed behavior. This reduced CI signal
and hid runtime/environment regressions.
## What changed
### CI
- Added Node setup using `codex-rs/node-version.txt` in:
- `.github/workflows/rust-ci.yml`
- `.github/workflows/bazel.yml`
- Added a Unix PATH copy step in Bazel workflow to expose the setup-node
binary in common paths.
### js_repl test harness
- Added explicit js_repl sandbox test configuration helpers in:
- `codex-rs/core/src/tools/js_repl/mod.rs`
- `codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers/js_repl.rs`
- Added Linux arg0 dispatch glue for js_repl tests so sandbox subprocess
entrypoint behavior is correct under Linux test execution.
### Removed skip behavior
- Deleted runtime guard function and early-return skips in js_repl tests
(`can_run_js_repl_runtime_tests` and related per-test short-circuits).
- Removed view_image integration test skip behavior:
- dropped `skip_if_no_network!(Ok(()))`
- removed “skip on Node missing/too old” branch after js_repl output
inspection.
## Impact
- js_repl/node tests now consistently execute and fail loudly when the
environment is not correctly provisioned.
- CI has stronger signal for js_repl regressions instead of false green
from conditional skips.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-core` (locally) to validate js_repl
unit/integration behavior with skips removed.
- CI expected to surface any remaining environment/runtime gaps directly
(rather than masking them).

## Summary
Stabilize `js_repl` runtime test setup in CI and move tool-facing
`js_repl` behavior coverage into integration tests.
This is a test/CI change only. No production `js_repl` behavior change
is intended.
## Why
- Bazel test sandboxes (especially on macOS) could resolve a different
`node` than the one installed by `actions/setup-node`, which caused
`js_repl` runtime/version failures.
- `js_repl` runtime tests depend on platform-specific
sandbox/test-harness behavior, so they need explicit gating in a
base-stability commit.
- Several tests in the `js_repl` unit test module were actually
black-box/tool-level behavior tests and fit better in the integration
suite.
## Changes
- Add `actions/setup-node` to the Bazel and Rust `Tests` workflows,
using the exact version pinned in the repo’s Node version file.
- In Bazel (non-Windows), pass `CODEX_JS_REPL_NODE_PATH=$(which node)`
into test env so `js_repl` uses the `actions/setup-node` runtime inside
Bazel tests.
- Add a new integration test suite for `js_repl` tool behavior and
register it in the core integration test suite module.
- Move black-box `js_repl` behavior tests into the integration suite
(persistence/TLA, builtin tool invocation, recursive self-call
rejection, `process` isolation, blocked builtin imports).
- Keep white-box manager/kernel tests in the `js_repl` unit test module.
- Gate `js_repl` runtime tests to run only on macOS and only when a
usable Node runtime is available (skip on other platforms / missing Node
in this commit).
## Impact
- Reduces `js_repl` CI failures caused by Node resolution drift in
Bazel.
- Improves test organization by separating tool-facing behavior tests
from white-box manager/kernel tests.
- Keeps the base commit stable while expanding `js_repl` runtime
coverage.
