- trim leftover codex-core sandbox shims and retarget the remaining type plumbing
- keep sandbox-related dependencies scoped to the crates and targets that actually use them
Co-authored-by: Codex <noreply@openai.com>
## Summary
- support legacy `ReadOnlyAccess::Restricted` on Windows in the elevated
setup/runner backend
- keep the unelevated restricted-token backend on the legacy full-read
model only, and fail closed for restricted read-only policies there
- keep the legacy full-read Windows path unchanged while deriving
narrower read roots only for elevated restricted-read policies
- honor `include_platform_defaults` by adding backend-managed Windows
system roots only when requested, while always keeping helper roots and
the command `cwd` readable
- preserve `workspace-write` semantics by keeping writable roots
readable when restricted read access is in use in the elevated backend
- document the current Windows boundary: legacy `SandboxPolicy` is
supported on both backends, while richer split-only carveouts still fail
closed instead of running with weaker enforcement
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-windows-sandbox`
- `cargo check -p codex-windows-sandbox --tests --target
x86_64-pc-windows-msvc`
- `cargo clippy -p codex-windows-sandbox --tests --target
x86_64-pc-windows-msvc -- -D warnings`
- `cargo test -p codex-core windows_restricted_token_`
## Notes
- local `cargo test -p codex-windows-sandbox` on macOS only exercises
the non-Windows stubs; the Windows-targeted compile and clippy runs
provide the local signal, and GitHub Windows CI exercises the runtime
path
## 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`
## Why
PR #13783 moved the `codex.rs` unit tests into `codex_tests.rs`. This
applies the same extraction pattern across the rest of `codex-rs/core`
so the production modules stay focused on runtime code instead of large
inline test blocks.
Keeping the tests in sibling files also makes follow-up edits easier to
review because product changes no longer have to share a file with
hundreds or thousands of lines of test scaffolding.
## What changed
- replaced each inline `mod tests { ... }` in `codex-rs/core/src/**`
with a path-based module declaration
- moved each extracted unit test module into a sibling `*_tests.rs`
file, using `mod_tests.rs` for `mod.rs` modules
- preserved the existing `cfg(...)` guards and module-local structure so
the refactor remains structural rather than behavioral
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib` (`1653 passed; 0 failed; 5 ignored`)
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `cargo fmt --check`
- `cargo shear`
