This PR introduces a `codex-utils-cargo-bin` utility crate that
wraps/replaces our use of `assert_cmd::Command` and
`escargot::CargoBuild`.
As you can infer from the introduction of `buck_project_root()` in this
PR, I am attempting to make it possible to build Codex under
[Buck2](https://buck2.build) as well as `cargo`. With Buck2, I hope to
achieve faster incremental local builds (largely due to Buck2's
[dice](https://buck2.build/docs/insights_and_knowledge/modern_dice/)
build strategy, as well as benefits from its local build daemon) as well
as faster CI builds if we invest in remote execution and caching.
See
https://buck2.build/docs/getting_started/what_is_buck2/#why-use-buck2-key-advantages
for more details about the performance advantages of Buck2.
Buck2 enforces stronger requirements in terms of build and test
isolation. It discourages assumptions about absolute paths (which is key
to enabling remote execution). Because the `CARGO_BIN_EXE_*` environment
variables that Cargo provides are absolute paths (which
`assert_cmd::Command` reads), this is a problem for Buck2, which is why
we need this `codex-utils-cargo-bin` utility.
My WIP-Buck2 setup sets the `CARGO_BIN_EXE_*` environment variables
passed to a `rust_test()` build rule as relative paths.
`codex-utils-cargo-bin` will resolve these values to absolute paths,
when necessary.

The goal is to have a single place where we actually write files
In a follow-up PR, will move everything config related in a dedicated
module and move the helpers in a dedicated file
Some MCP servers expose a lot of tools. In those cases, it is reasonable
to allow/denylist tools for Codex to use so it doesn't get overwhelmed
with too many tools.
The new configuration options available in the `mcp_server` toml table
are:
* `enabled_tools`
* `disabled_tools`
Fixes#4796
This makes stdio mcp servers more flexible by allowing users to specify
the cwd to run the server command from and adding additional environment
variables to be passed through to the server.
Example config using the test server in this repo:
```toml
[mcp_servers.test_stdio]
cwd = "/Users/<user>/code/codex/codex-rs"
command = "cargo"
args = ["run", "--bin", "test_stdio_server"]
env_vars = ["MCP_TEST_VALUE"]
```
@bolinfest I know you hate these env var tests but let's roll with this
for now. I may take a stab at the env guard + serial macro at some
point.
This adds a queryable auth status for MCP servers which is useful:
1. To determine whether a streamable HTTP server supports auth or not
based on whether or not it supports RFC 8414-3.2
2. Allow us to build a better user experience on top of MCP status
This PR adds support for streamable HTTP MCP servers when the
`experimental_use_rmcp_client` is enabled.
To set one up, simply add a new mcp server config with the url:
```
[mcp_servers.figma]
url = "http://127.0.0.1:3845/mcp"
```
It also supports an optional `bearer_token` which will be provided in an
authorization header. The full oauth flow is not supported yet.
The config parsing will throw if it detects that the user mixed and
matched config fields (like command + bearer token or url + env).
The best way to review it is to review `core/src` and then
`rmcp-client/src/rmcp_client.rs` first. The rest is tests and
propagating the `Transport` struct around the codebase.
