## Summary
We ideally shouldn't make it to this point in the first place, but if we
do try to append a rule that already exists, we shouldn't append the
same rule twice.
## Testing
- [x] Added unit test for this case
## Summary
We should probably warn users that they have a million rules, and help
clean them up. But for now, we should handle this unbounded case.
Limit rules listed in conversations, with shortest / broadest rules
first.
## Testing
- [x] Updated unit tests
Updated system skills bundled with Codex were not correctly replacing
the user's skills in their .system folder.
- Fix `.codex-system-skills.marker` not updating by hashing embedded
system skills recursively (nested dirs + file contents), so updates
trigger a reinstall.
- Added a build Cargo hook to rerun if there are changes in
`src/skills/assets/samples/*`, ensuring embedded skill updates rebuild
correctly under caching.
- Add a small unit test to ensure nested entries are included in the
fingerprint.
## Summary
- Touch restored rollout files on `thread/unarchive` so `updatedAt`
reflects the unarchive time.
- Add a regression test to ensure unarchiving bumps `updated_at` from an
old mtime.
## Notes
This fixes the UX issue where unarchived old threads don’t reappear near
the top of recent threads.
## Summary
- Replace the “Hard interaction rule” with a clearer “Response
constraints” section that enumerates the allowed exceptions for Plan
Mode replies.
- Remove the stray Phase 1 exception line about simple questions.
- Update plan content requirements to ask for a brief summary section
and generalize API/type wording.
Summary
- expose websocket telemetry hooks through the responses client so
request durations and event processing can be reported
- record websocket request/event metrics and emit runtime telemetry
events that the history UI now surfaces
- improve tests to cover websocket telemetry reporting and guard runtime
summary updates

### Motivation
- The image referenced in the package README was 404ing on the npm
package page because it used a relative file path that doesn't resolve
on npm, so the splash image needs a GitHub-hosted URL to render
correctly.
### Description
- Update `README.md` to replace the relative image path
`./.github/codex-cli-splash.png` with the GitHub-hosted URL
`https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/.github/codex-cli-splash.png`.
### Testing
- No automated tests were run because this is a docs-only change and
does not affect code or test behavior.

## Summary
I have read the contribution guidelines.
All changes in this PR are limited to text corrections and do not modify
any business logic, runtime behavior, or user-facing functionality.
## Details
This PR fixes several minor typos, including:
- `create` -> `crate`
- `analagous` -> `analogous`
- `apply-patch` -> `apply_patch`
- `codecs` -> `codex`
- ` '/" ` -> ` '/' `
- `Respesent` -> `Represent`
Summary
- require `CODEX_HOME` to point to an existing directory before
canonicalizing and surface clear errors otherwise
- share the same helper logic in both `core` and `rmcp-client` and add
unit tests that cover missing, non-directory, valid, and default paths
This addresses #9222
## Summary
Fixes#9041
- Adds update_search_dir() method to FileSearchManager to allow updating
the search directory after initialization
- Calls this method when the session CWD changes: new session, resume,
or fork
## Problem
The FileSearchManager was created once with the initial search_dir and
never updated. When a user:
1. Starts Codex in a non-git directory (e.g., /tmp/random)
2. Resumes or forks a session from a different workspace
3. The @filename lookup still searched the original directory
This caused no matches to be returned even when files existed in the
current workspace.
## Solution
Update FileSearchManager.search_dir whenever the session working
directory changes:
- AppEvent::NewSession: Use current config CWD
- SessionSelection::Resume: Use resumed session CWD
- SessionSelection::Fork: Use forked session CWD
## Test plan
- [ ] Start Codex in /tmp/test-dir (non-git)
- [ ] Resume a session from a project with actual files
- [ ] Verify @filename returns matches from the resumed session
directory

When `shell_snapshot` runs, it may execute user startup files (e.g.
`.bashrc`). If those files read from stdin (or if stdin is an
interactive TTY under job control), the snapshot subprocess can block or
receive `SIGTTIN` (as reported over SSH).
This change explicitly sets `stdin` to `Stdio::null()` for the snapshot
subprocess, so it can't read from the terminal.
Regression test added that would hang/timeout without this change.
Tests: `ulimit -n 4096 && cargo test -p codex-core`.

Summary:
- Fixes issue #9932: https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/9932
- Prevents `$CODEX_HOME` (typically `~/.codex`) from being discovered as
a project `.codex` layer by skipping it during project layer traversal.
We compare both normalized absolute paths and best-effort canonicalized
paths to handle symlinks.
- Adds regression tests for home-directory invocation and for the case
where `CODEX_HOME` points to a project `.codex` directory (e.g.,
worktrees/editor integrations).
Testing:
- `cargo build -p codex-cli --bin codex`
- `cargo build -p codex-rmcp-client --bin test_stdio_server`
- `cargo test -p codex-core`
- `cargo test --all-features`
- Manual: ran `target/debug/codex` from `~` and confirmed the
disabled-folder warning and trust prompt no longer appear.

When using ChatGPT in names of types, we should be consistent, so this
renames some types with `ChatGpt` in the name to `Chatgpt`. From
https://rust-lang.github.io/api-guidelines/naming.html:
> In `UpperCamelCase`, acronyms and contractions of compound words count
as one word: use `Uuid` rather than `UUID`, `Usize` rather than `USize`
or `Stdin` rather than `StdIn`. In `snake_case`, acronyms and
contractions are lower-cased: `is_xid_start`.
This PR updates existing uses of `ChatGpt` and changes them to
`Chatgpt`. Though in all cases where it could affect the wire format, I
visually inspected that we don't change anything there. That said, this
_will_ change the codegen because it will affect the spelling of type
names.
For example, this renames `AuthMode::ChatGPT` to `AuthMode::Chatgpt` in
`app-server-protocol`, but the wire format is still `"chatgpt"`.
This PR also updates a number of types in `codex-rs/core/src/auth.rs`.
Title
Hide Code mode footer label/cycle hint; add Plan footer-collapse
snapshots
Summary
- Keep Code mode internal naming but suppress the footer mode label +
cycle hint when Code is active.
- Only show the cycle hint when a non‑Code mode indicator is present.
- Add Plan-mode footer collapse snapshot coverage (empty + queued,
across widths) and update existing footer collapse snapshots for the new
Code behavior.
Notes
- The test run currently fails in codex-cloud-requirements on
origin/main due to a stale auth.mode field; no fix is included in this
PR to keep the diff minimal.
Codex author
`codex resume 019c0296-cfd4-7193-9b0a-6949048e4546`
## Summary
- Stream proposed plans in Plan Mode using `<proposed_plan>` tags parsed
in core, emitting plan deltas plus a plan `ThreadItem`, while stripping
tags from normal assistant output.
- Persist plan items and rebuild them on resume so proposed plans show
in thread history.
- Wire plan items/deltas through app-server protocol v2 and render a
dedicated proposed-plan view in the TUI, including the “Implement this
plan?” prompt only when a plan item is present.
## Changes
### Core (`codex-rs/core`)
- Added a generic, line-based tag parser that buffers each line until it
can disprove a tag prefix; implements auto-close on `finish()` for
unterminated tags. `codex-rs/core/src/tagged_block_parser.rs`
- Refactored proposed plan parsing to wrap the generic parser.
`codex-rs/core/src/proposed_plan_parser.rs`
- In plan mode, stream assistant deltas as:
- **Normal text** → `AgentMessageContentDelta`
- **Plan text** → `PlanDelta` + `TurnItem::Plan` start/completion
(`codex-rs/core/src/codex.rs`)
- Final plan item content is derived from the completed assistant
message (authoritative), not necessarily the concatenated deltas.
- Strips `<proposed_plan>` blocks from assistant text in plan mode so
tags don’t appear in normal messages.
(`codex-rs/core/src/stream_events_utils.rs`)
- Persist `ItemCompleted` events only for plan items for rollout replay.
(`codex-rs/core/src/rollout/policy.rs`)
- Guard `update_plan` tool in Plan Mode with a clear error message.
(`codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers/plan.rs`)
- Updated Plan Mode prompt to:
- keep `<proposed_plan>` out of non-final reasoning/preambles
- require exact tag formatting
- allow only one `<proposed_plan>` block per turn
(`codex-rs/core/templates/collaboration_mode/plan.md`)
### Protocol / App-server protocol
- Added `TurnItem::Plan` and `PlanDeltaEvent` to core protocol items.
(`codex-rs/protocol/src/items.rs`, `codex-rs/protocol/src/protocol.rs`)
- Added v2 `ThreadItem::Plan` and `PlanDeltaNotification` with
EXPERIMENTAL markers and note that deltas may not match the final plan
item. (`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2.rs`)
- Added plan delta route in app-server protocol common mapping.
(`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/common.rs`)
- Rebuild plan items from persisted `ItemCompleted` events on resume.
(`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/thread_history.rs`)
### App-server
- Forward plan deltas to v2 clients and map core plan items to v2 plan
items. (`codex-rs/app-server/src/bespoke_event_handling.rs`,
`codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs`)
- Added v2 plan item tests.
(`codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/plan_item.rs`)
### TUI
- Added a dedicated proposed plan history cell with special background
and padding, and moved “• Proposed Plan” outside the highlighted block.
(`codex-rs/tui/src/history_cell.rs`, `codex-rs/tui/src/style.rs`)
- Only show “Implement this plan?” when a plan item exists.
(`codex-rs/tui/src/chatwidget.rs`,
`codex-rs/tui/src/chatwidget/tests.rs`)

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/69794c8c-f96b-4d36-92ef-c1f5c3a8f286"
/>
### Docs / Misc
- Updated protocol docs to mention plan deltas.
(`codex-rs/docs/protocol_v1.md`)
- Minor plumbing updates in exec/debug clients to tolerate plan deltas.
(`codex-rs/debug-client/src/reader.rs`, `codex-rs/exec/...`)
## Tests
- Added core integration tests:
- Plan mode strips plan from agent messages.
- Missing `</proposed_plan>` closes at end-of-message.
(`codex-rs/core/tests/suite/items.rs`)
- Added unit tests for generic tag parser (prefix buffering, non-tag
lines, auto-close). (`codex-rs/core/src/tagged_block_parser.rs`)
- Existing app-server plan item tests in v2.
(`codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/plan_item.rs`)
## Notes / Behavior
- Plan output no longer appears in standard assistant text in Plan Mode;
it streams via `PlanDelta` and completes as a `TurnItem::Plan`.
- The final plan item content is authoritative and may diverge from
streamed deltas (documented as experimental).
- Reasoning summaries are not filtered; prompt instructs the model not
to include `<proposed_plan>` outside the final plan message.
## Codex Author
`codex fork 019bec2d-b09d-7450-b292-d7bcdddcdbfb`
## Summary
- Tightens Plan Mode to encourage exploration-first behavior and more
back-and-forth alignment.
- Adds a required TL;DR checkpoint before drafting the full plan.
- Clarifies client behavior that can cause premature “Implement this
plan?” prompts.
## What changed
- Require at least one targeted non-mutating exploration pass before the
first user question.
- Insert a TL;DR checkpoint between Phase 2 (intent) and Phase 3
(implementation).
- TL;DR checkpoint guidance:
- Label: “Proposed Plan (TL;DR)”
- Format: 3–5 bullets using `- `
- Options: exactly one option, “Approve”
- `isOther: true`, with explicit guidance that “None of the above” is
the edit path in the current UI.
- Require the final plan to include a TL;DR consistent with the approved
checkpoint.
## Why
- In Plan Mode, any normal assistant message at turn completion is
treated as plan content by the client. This can trigger premature
“Implement this plan?” prompts.
- The TL;DR checkpoint aligns on direction before Codex drafts a long,
decision-complete plan.
## Testing
- Manual: built the local CLI and verified the flow now explores first,
presents a TL;DR checkpoint, and only drafts the full plan after
approval.

`requirements.toml` should be able to specify rules which always run.
My intention here was that these rules could only ever be restrictive,
which means the decision can be "prompt" or "forbidden" but never
"allow". A requirement of "you must always allow this command" didn't
make sense to me, but happy to be gaveled otherwise.
Rules already applies the most restrictive decision, so we can safely
merge these with rules found in other config folders.
Previously, `CodexAuth` was defined as follows:
d550fbf41a/codex-rs/core/src/auth.rs (L39-L46)
But if you looked at its constructors, we had creation for
`AuthMode::ApiKey` where `storage` was built using a nonsensical path
(`PathBuf::new()`) and `auth_dot_json` was `None`:
d550fbf41a/codex-rs/core/src/auth.rs (L212-L220)
By comparison, when `AuthMode::ChatGPT` was used, `api_key` was always
`None`:
d550fbf41a/codex-rs/core/src/auth.rs (L665-L671)https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/10012 took things further because
it introduced a new `ChatgptAuthTokens` variant to `AuthMode`, which is
important in when invoking `account/login/start` via the app server, but
most logic _internal_ to the app server should just reason about two
`AuthMode` variants: `ApiKey` and `ChatGPT`.
This PR tries to clean things up as follows:
- `LoginAccountParams` and `AuthMode` in `codex-rs/app-server-protocol/`
both continue to have the `ChatgptAuthTokens` variant, though it is used
exclusively for the on-the-wire messaging.
- `codex-rs/core/src/auth.rs` now has its own `AuthMode` enum, which
only has two variants: `ApiKey` and `ChatGPT`.
- `CodexAuth` has been changed from a struct to an enum. It is a
disjoint union where each variant (`ApiKey`, `ChatGpt`, and
`ChatGptAuthTokens`) have only the associated fields that make sense for
that variant.

## Summary
- add startup tooltip for OpenAI community Discord
- add startup tooltip for Codex community forum
## Testing
- not run (text-only tooltip change)
## Summary
Let's dial in this api contract in a bit more with more robust fallback

## Testing
- [x] Adding unit tests

## Problem
OpenAI employees were sent to the public GitHub issue flow after
`/feedback`, which is the wrong follow-up path internally.
## Mental model
After feedback upload completes, we render a follow-up link/message.
That link should be audience-aware but must not change the upload
pipeline itself.
## Non-goals
- Changing how feedback is captured or uploaded
- Changing external user behavior
## Tradeoffs
We detect employees via the authenticated account email suffix
(`@openai.com`). If the email is unavailable (e.g., API key auth), we
default to the external behavior.
## Architecture
- Introduce `FeedbackAudience` and thread it from `App` -> `ChatWidget`
-> `FeedbackNoteView`
- Gate internal messaging/links on `FeedbackAudience::OpenAiEmployee`
- Internal follow-up link is now `http://go/codex-feedback-internal`
- External GitHub URL remains byte-for-byte identical
## Observability
No new telemetry; this only changes rendered follow-up instructions.
## Tests
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui --lib`

```
## Summary
Adds a simple `/plan` slash command in the TUI that switches the active
collaboration mode to Plan mode. The command is only available when the
`collaboration_modes` feature is enabled.
## Changes
- Add `plan_mask` helper in `codex-rs/tui/src/collaboration_modes.rs`
- Add `SlashCommand::Plan` metadata in
`codex-rs/tui/src/slash_command.rs`
- Implement and hard-gate `/plan` dispatch in
`codex-rs/tui/src/chatwidget.rs`
- Hide `/plan` when collaboration modes are disabled in
`codex-rs/tui/src/bottom_pane/slash_commands.rs`
- Update command popup tests in
`codex-rs/tui/src/bottom_pane/command_popup.rs`
- Add a focused unit test for `/plan` in
`codex-rs/tui/src/chatwidget/tests.rs`
## Behavior notes
- `/plan` is now a no-op if `Feature::CollaborationModes` is disabled.
- When enabled, `/plan` switches directly to Plan mode without opening
the picker.
## Codex author
`codex resume 019c05da-d7c3-7322-ae2c-3ca38d0ef702`
This enables a new use case where `codex app-server` is embedded into a
parent application that will directly own the user's ChatGPT auth
lifecycle, which means it owns the user’s auth tokens and refreshes it
when necessary. The parent application would just want a way to pass in
the auth tokens for codex to use directly.
The idea is that we are introducing a new "auth mode" currently only
exposed via app server: **`chatgptAuthTokens`** which consist of the
`id_token` (stores account metadata) and `access_token` (the bearer
token used directly for backend API calls). These auth tokens are only
stored in-memory. This new mode is in addition to the existing `apiKey`
and `chatgpt` auth modes.
This PR reuses the shape of our existing app-server account APIs as much
as possible:
- Update `account/login/start` with a new `chatgptAuthTokens` variant,
which will allow the client to pass in the tokens and have codex
app-server use them directly. Upon success, the server emits
`account/login/completed` and `account/updated` notifications.
- A new server->client request called
`account/chatgptAuthTokens/refresh` which the server can use whenever
the access token previously passed in has expired and it needs a new one
from the parent application.
I leveraged the core 401 retry loop which typically triggers auth token
refreshes automatically, but made it pluggable:
- **chatgpt** mode refreshes internally, as usual.
- **chatgptAuthTokens** mode calls the client via
`account/chatgptAuthTokens/refresh`, the client responds with updated
tokens, codex updates its in-memory auth, then retries. This RPC has a
10s timeout and handles JSON-RPC errors from the client.
Also some additional things:
- chatgpt logins are blocked while external auth is active (have to log
out first. typically clients will pick one OR the other, not support
both)
- `account/logout` clears external auth in memory
- Ensures that if `forced_chatgpt_workspace_id` is set via the user's
config, we respect it in both:
- `account/login/start` with `chatgptAuthTokens` (returns a JSON-RPC
error back to the client)
- `account/chatgptAuthTokens/refresh` (fails the turn, and on next
request app-server will send another `account/chatgptAuthTokens/refresh`
request to the client).
###### Problem
Users get generic 429s with no guidance when a model is at capacity.
###### Solution
Detect model-cap headers, surface a clear “try a different model”
message, and keep behavior non‑intrusive (no auto‑switch).
###### Scope
CLI/TUI only; protocol + error mapping updated to carry model‑cap info.
###### Tests
- just fmt
- cargo test -p codex-tui
- cargo test -p codex-core --lib
shell_snapshot::tests::try_new_creates_and_deletes_snapshot_file --
--nocapture (ran in isolated env)
- validate local build with backend

## Summary
- add `codex features enable <feature>` and `codex features disable
<feature>`
- persist feature flag changes to `config.toml` (respecting profile)
- print the under-development feature warning when enabling prerelease
features
- keep `features list` behavior unchanged and add unit/integration tests
## Testing
- cargo test -p codex-cli
An experimental flow for env var skill dependencies. Skills can now
declare required env vars in SKILL.md; if missing, the CLI prompts the
user to get the value, and Core will store it in memory (eventually to a
local persistent store)

Currently, our `npm publish` logic is failing.
There were a number of things that were merged recently that seemed to
contribute to this situation, though I think we have fixed most of them,
but this one stands out:
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/10115
As best I can tell, we tried to fix the pnpm version to a specific hash,
but we did not do it consistently (though `shell-tool-mcp/package.json`
had it specified twice...), so for this PR, I ran:
```
$ git ls-files | grep package.json
codex-cli/package.json
codex-rs/responses-api-proxy/npm/package.json
package.json
sdk/typescript/package.json
shell-tool-mcp/package.json
```
and ensured that all of them now have this line:
```json
"packageManager": "pnpm@10.28.2+sha512.41872f037ad22f7348e3b1debbaf7e867cfd448f2726d9cf74c08f19507c31d2c8e7a11525b983febc2df640b5438dee6023ebb1f84ed43cc2d654d2bc326264"
```
I also went and deleted all of the `corepack` stuff that was added by
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/10115.
If someone can explain why we need it and verify it does not break `npm
publish`, then we can bring it back.

we can't use runfiles directory on Windows due to path lengths, so swap
to manifest strategy. Parsing the manifest is a bit complex and the
format is changing in Bazel upstream, so pull in the official Rust
library (via a small hack to make it importable...) and cleanup all the
associated logic to work cleanly in both bazel and cargo without extra
confusion
This updates the CI workflows for shell-tool-mcp to use the pnpm version
from package.json and print it in the build for verification.

This PR adds a new `tui.notifications_method` config option that accepts
values of "auto", "osc9" and "bel". It defaults to "auto", which
attempts to auto-detect whether the terminal supports OSC 9 escape
sequences and falls back to BEL if not.
The PR also removes the inconsistent handling of notifications on
Windows when WSL was used.

deprecate all old web search flags and aliases, including:
- `[features].web_search_request` and `[features].web_search_cached`
- `[tools].web_search`
- `[features].web_search`
slightly rework `legacy_usages` to enable pointing to non-features from
deprecated features; we need to point to `web_search` (not under
`[features]`) from things like `[features].web_search_cached` and
`[features].web_search_request`.
Added integration tests to confirm deprecation notice is shown on
explicit enablement and disablement of deprecated flags.
I needed to upgrade bazel one to get gnullvm artifacts and then noticed
monorepo had drifted forward. They should move in lockstep. Also 1.93
already shipped so we can try that instead.
## Summary
Overhaul the ask‑user‑questions TUI to support “Other/None” answers,
better notes handling, improved option selection
UX, and a safer submission flow with confirmation for unanswered
questions.
Multiple choice (number keys for quick selection, up/down or jk for
cycling through options):

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/93965c8f-54ac-45bc-a660-9625bcd101f8"
/>
## Key Changes
- **Options UI refresh**
- Render options as numbered entries; allow number keys to select &
submit.
- Remove “Option X/Y” header and allow the question UI height to expand
naturally.
- Keep spacing between question, options, and notes even when notes are
visible.
- Hide the title line and render the question prompt in cyan **only when
uncommitted**.
- **“Other / None of the above” support**
- Wire `isOther` to add “None of the above”.
- Add guidance text: “Optionally, add details in notes (tab).”
- **Notes composer UX**
- Remove “Notes” heading; place composer directly under the selected
option.
- Preserve pending paste placeholders across question navigation and
after submission.
- Ctrl+C clears notes **only when the notes composer has focus**.
- Ctrl+C now triggers an immediate redraw so the clear is visible.
- **Committed vs uncommitted state**
- Introduce a unified `answer_committed` flag per question.
- Editing notes (including adding text or pastes) marks the answer
uncommitted.
- Changing the option highlight (j/k, up/down) marks the answer
uncommitted.
- Clearing options (Backspace/Delete) also clears pending notes.
- Question prompt turns cyan only when the answer is uncommitted.
- **Submission safety & confirmation**
- Only submit notes/freeform text once explicitly committed.
- Last-question submit with unanswered questions shows a confirmation
dialog.
- Confirmation options:
1. **Proceed** (default)
2. **Go back**
- Description reflects count: “Submit with N unanswered question(s).”
- Esc/Backspace in confirmation returns to first unanswered question.
- Ctrl+C in confirmation interrupts and exits the overlay.
- **Footer hints**
- Cyan highlight restored for “enter to submit answer” / “enter to
submit all”.

Add a `.sqlite` database to be used to store rollout metatdata (and
later logs)
This PR is phase 1:
* Add the database and the required infrastructure
* Add a backfill of the database
* Persist the newly created rollout both in files and in the DB
* When we need to get metadata or a rollout, consider the `JSONL` as the
source of truth but compare the results with the DB and show any errors
**Summary**
- Up/Down input history now restores image attachments and text elements
for local entries.
- Composer history stores rich local entries (text + text elements +
local image paths) while persistent history remains text-only.
- Added tests to verify history recall rehydrates image placeholders and
attachments in both `tui` and `tui2`.
**Changes**
- `tui/src/bottom_pane/chat_composer_history.rs`: store `HistoryEntry`
(text + elements + image paths) for local history; adapt navigation +
tests.
- `tui2/src/bottom_pane/chat_composer_history.rs`: same as above.
- `tui/src/bottom_pane/chat_composer.rs`: record rich history entries
and restore them on Up/Down; update Ctrl+C history and tests.
- `tui2/src/bottom_pane/chat_composer.rs`: same as above.
web_search can now be updated per-turn, for things like changes to
sandbox policy.
`SandboxPolicy::DangerFullAccess` now sets web_search to `live`, and the
default is still `cached`.
Added integration tests.
Fixes#9361
## Context
Split out from #9059 per review:
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9059#issuecomment-3757859033
## Summary
The shortcut overlay renders different paste-image bindings on WSL
(Ctrl+Alt+V) vs non-WSL (Ctrl+V), which makes snapshot tests
non-deterministic when run under WSL.
## Changes
- Gate WSL detection behind `cfg(not(test))` so snapshot tests are
deterministic across environments.
- Add a focused unit test that still asserts the WSL-specific
paste-image binding.
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `just fix -p codex-tui`
- `just fix -p codex-tui2`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui2`

## Key changes
- Footer tips wrap at tip boundaries (no truncation mid‑tip); footer
height scales to wrapped tips.
- Keep tooltip text as Esc: interrupt in all states.
- Make the full Tab: add notes tip cyan/bold when applicable; hide notes
UI by default.
- Notes toggling/backspace:
- Tab opens notes when an option is selected; Tab again clears notes and
hides the notes UI.
- Backspace in options clears the current selection.
- Backspace in empty notes closes notes and returns to options.
- Selection/answering behavior:
- Option questions highlight a default option but are not answered until
Enter.
- Enter no longer auto‑selects when there’s no selection (prevents
accidental answers).
- Notes submission can commit the selected option when present.
- Freeform questions require Enter with non‑empty text to mark answered;
drafts are not submitted unless committed.
- Unanswered cues:
- Skipped option questions count as unanswered.
- Unanswered question titles are highlighted for visibility.
- Typing/navigation in options:
- Typing no longer opens notes; notes are Tab‑only.
- j/k move option selection; h/l switch questions (Ctrl+n/Ctrl+p still
work).
## Tests
- Added unit coverage for:
- tip‑level wrapping
- focus reset when switching questions with existing drafts
- backspace clearing selection
- backspace closing empty notes
- typing in options does not open notes
- freeform draft submission gating
- h/l question navigation in options
- Updated snapshots, including narrow footer wrap.
## Why
These changes make the ask‑user‑question overlay:
- safer (no silent auto‑selection or accidental freeform submission),
- clearer (tips wrap cleanly and unanswered states stand out),
- more ergonomic (Tab explicitly controls notes; backspace acts like
undo/close).

### Motivation
- Improve UX by making it explicit that `VISUAL`/`EDITOR` must be set
before launching Codex, not during a running session.
### Description
- Update the external editor error text in `codex-rs/tui/src/app.rs` to:
`"Cannot open external editor: set $VISUAL or $EDITOR before starting
Codex."` and run `just fmt` to apply formatting.
### Testing
- Ran `just fmt` successfully; attempted `cargo test -p codex-tui` but
it failed due to network errors when fetching git dependencies (tests
did not complete).

[Codex
Task](https://chatgpt.com/codex/tasks/task_i_6972c2c984948329b1a37d5c5839aff3)
### Motivation
- The local OAuth callback server returned a generic "Invalid OAuth
callback" on failures even when the query contained an
`error_description`, making it hard to debug OAuth failures.
### Description
- Update `codex-rs/rmcp-client/src/perform_oauth_login.rs` to surface
`error_description` values from the callback query in the HTTP response.
- Introduce a `CallbackOutcome` enum and change `parse_oauth_callback`
to return it, parsing `code`, `state`, and `error_description` from the
query string.
- Change `spawn_callback_server` to match on `CallbackOutcome` and
return `OAuth error: <description>` with a 400 status when
`error_description` is present, while preserving the existing success
and invalid flows.
- Use inline formatting for the error response string.
### Testing
- Ran `just fmt` in the `codex-rs` workspace to format changes
successfully.
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-rmcp-client` and all tests passed.

## What?
- Render an MCP image output cell whenever a decodable image block
exists in `CallToolResult.content` (including text-before-image or
malformed image before valid image).
## Why?
- Tool results that include caption text before the image currently drop
the image output cell.
- A malformed image block can also suppress later valid image output.
## How?
- Iterate `content` and return the first successfully decoded image
instead of only checking the first block.
- Add unit tests that cover text-before-image ordering and
invalid-image-before-valid.
## Before
```rust
let image = match result {
Ok(mcp_types::CallToolResult { content, .. }) => {
if let Some(mcp_types::ContentBlock::ImageContent(image)) = content.first() {
// decode image (fails -> None)
} else {
None
}
}
_ => None,
}?;
```
## After
```rust
let image = result
.as_ref()
.ok()?
.content
.iter()
.find_map(decode_mcp_image)?;
```
## Risk / Impact
- Low: only affects image cell creation for MCP tool results; no change
for non-image outputs.
## Tests
- [x] `just fmt`
- [x] `cargo test -p codex-tui`
- [x] Rerun after branch update (2026-01-27): `just fmt`, `cargo test -p
codex-tui`
Manual testing
# Manual testing: MCP image tool result rendering (Codex TUI)
# Build the rmcp stdio test server binary:
cd codex-rs
cargo build -p codex-rmcp-client --bin test_stdio_server
# Register the server as an MCP server (absolute path to the built binary):
codex mcp add mcpimg -- /Users/joshka/code/codex-pr-review/codex-rs/target/debug/test_stdio_server
# Then in Codex TUI, ask it to call:
- mcpimg.image_scenario({"scenario":"image_only"})
- mcpimg.image_scenario({"scenario":"text_then_image","caption":"Here is the image:"})
- mcpimg.image_scenario({"scenario":"invalid_base64_then_image"})
- mcpimg.image_scenario({"scenario":"invalid_image_bytes_then_image"})
- mcpimg.image_scenario({"scenario":"multiple_valid_images"})
- mcpimg.image_scenario({"scenario":"image_then_text","caption":"Here is the image:"})
- mcpimg.image_scenario({"scenario":"text_only","caption":"Here is the image:"})
# Expected:
# - You should see an extra history cell: "tool result (image output)" when the
# tool result contains at least one decodable image block (even if earlier
# blocks are text or invalid images).

Auto-enable live `web_search` tool when sandbox policy is
`DangerFullAccess`.
Explicitly setting `web_search` (canonical setting), or enabling
`web_search_cached` or `web_search_request` still takes precedence over
this sandbox-policy-driven enablement.
Constructors with long param lists can be hard to reason about when a
number of the args are `None`, in practice. Introducing a struct to use
as the args type helps make things more self-documenting.
Updates the `CodexOptions` passed to the `Codex()` constructor in the
SDK to support a `config` property that is a map of configuration data
that will be transformed into `--config` flags passed to the invocation
of `codex`.
Therefore, something like this:
```typescript
const codex = new Codex({
config: {
show_raw_agent_reasoning: true,
sandbox_workspace_write: { network_access: true },
},
});
```
would result in the following args being added to the invocation of
`codex`:
```shell
--config show_raw_agent_reasoning=true --config sandbox_workspace_write.network_access=true
```
### Overview
Currently calling `thread/resume` will always bump the thread's
`updated_at` timestamp. This PR makes it the `updated_at` timestamp
changes only if a turn is triggered.
### Additonal context
What we typically do on resuming a thread is **always** writing “initial
context” to the rollout file immediately. This initial context includes:
- Developer instructions derived from sandbox/approval policy + cwd
- Optional developer instructions (if provided)
- Optional collaboration-mode instructions
- Optional user instructions (if provided)
- Environment context (cwd, shell, etc.)
This PR defers writing the “initial context” to the rollout file until
the first `turn/start`, so we don't inadvertently bump the thread's
`updated_at` timestamp until a turn is actually triggered.
This works even though both `thread/resume` and `turn/start` accept
overrides (such as `model`, `cwd`, etc.) because the initial context is
seeded from the effective `TurnContext` in memory, computed at
`turn/start` time, after both sets of overrides have been applied.
**NOTE**: This is a very short-lived solution until we introduce sqlite.
Then we can remove this.
### Summary
- Adds an optional SOCKS5 listener via `rama-socks5`
- SOCKS5 is disabled by default and gated by config
- Reuses existing policy enforcement and blocked-request recording
- Blocks SOCKS5 in limited mode to prevent method-policy bypass
- Applies bind clamping to the SOCKS5 listener
### Config
New/used fields under `network_proxy`:
- `enable_socks5`
- `socks_url`
- `enable_socks5_udp`
### Scope
- Changes limited to `codex-rs/network-proxy` (+ `codex-rs/Cargo.lock`)
### Testing
```bash
cd codex-rs
just fmt
cargo test -p codex-network-proxy --offline

## Notes / Edge Cases
- In steer mode while typing, the queue hint no longer replaces the mode
label; it renders as `tab to queue message · {Mode}`.
- Collapse priorities differ by state:
- With the queue hint active, `% context left` is hidden before
shortening or dropping the queue hint.
- In the empty + non-running state, `? for shortcuts` is dropped first,
and `% context left` is only shown if `(shift+tab to
cycle)` can also fit.
- Transient instructional states (`?` overlay, Esc hint, Ctrl+C/D
reminders, and flash/override hints) intentionally suppress the
mode label (and context) to focus the next action.
## Implementation Notes
- Renamed the base footer modes to make the state explicit:
`ComposerEmpty` and `ComposerHasDraft`, and compute the base mode
directly from emptiness.
- Unified collapse behavior in `single_line_footer_layout` for both base
modes, with:
- Queue-hint behavior that prefers keeping the queue hint over context.
- A cycle-hint guard that prevents context from reappearing after
`(shift+tab to cycle)` is dropped.
- Kept rendering responsibilities explicit:
- `single_line_footer_layout` decides what fits.
- `render_footer_line` renders a chosen line.
- `render_footer_from_props` renders the canonical mode-to-text mapping.
- Expanded snapshot coverage:
- Added `footer_collapse_snapshots` in `chat_composer.rs` to lock the
distinct collapse states across widths.
- Consolidated the width-aware snapshot helper usage (e.g.,
`snapshot_composer_state_with_width`,
`snapshot_footer_with_mode_indicator`).
Updates pnpm to 10.28.2. to address security issues in prior versions of
pnpm that can allow deps to execute lifecycle scripts against policy.

Fix resume --last prompt parsing by dropping the clap conflict on the

### Summary
- Parse all `web_search` tool actions (`search`, `find_in_page`,
`open_page`).
- Previously we only parsed + displayed `search`, which made the TUI
appear to pause when the other actions were being used.
- Show in progress `web_search` calls as `Searching the web`
- Previously we only showed completed tool calls

### Tests
Added + updated tests, tested locally
### Follow ups
Update VSCode extension to display these as well
Reuse the shared chat composer for notes and freeform answers in
request_user_input.
- Build the overlay composer with ChatComposerConfig::plain_text.
- Wire paste-burst flushing + menu surface sizing through the bottom
pane.
## Context
Previous work in https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9560 only rejected
`request_user_input` in Execute and Custom modes. Since then, additional
modes
(e.g., Code) were added, so the guard should be mode-agnostic.
## What changed
- Switch the handler to an allowlist: only Plan and PairProgramming are
allowed
- Return the same error for any other mode (including Code)
- Add a Code-mode rejection test alongside the existing Execute/Custom
tests
## Why
This prevents `request_user_input` from being used in modes where it is
not
intended, even as new modes are introduced.
Fixes a TUI freeze caused by awaiting `mpsc::Sender::send()` that blocks
the tokio thread, stopping the consumption runtime and creating a
deadlock. This could happen if the server was producing enough chunks to
fill the `mpsc` fast enough. To solve this we try on insert using a
`try_send()` (not requiring an `await`) and delegate to a tokio task if
this does not work
This is a temporary solution as it can contain races for delta elements
and a stronger design should come here
Fixes#9822
### Summary
Make the Homebrew upgrade command explicit by using `brew upgrade --cask
codex`.
### Motivation
During the Codex self-update, Homebrew can emit an avoidable warning
because the
name `codex` resolves to a cask:
```
Warning: Formula codex was renamed to homebrew/cask/codex.
````
While the upgrade succeeds, this relies on implicit name resolution and
produces
unnecessary output during the update flow.
### Why `--cask`
* Eliminates warning/noise for users
* Explicitly matches how Codex is distributed via Homebrew
* Avoids reliance on name resolution behavior
* Makes the command more robust if a `codex` formula is ever introduced
### Context
This restores the `--cask` flag that was removed in #6238 after being
considered
“not necessary” during review:

Currently `apply_patch` will fail on Windows if the file contents happen
to have a multi-byte character at the point where the `preview` function
truncates.
I've used the existing `take_bytes_at_char_boundary` helper and added a
regression test (that fails without the fix).
This is related to #4013 but doesn't fix it.

### Motivation
- Allow MCP OAuth flows to request scopes defined in `config.toml`
instead of requiring users to always pass `--scopes` on the CLI.
CLI/remote parameters should still override config values.
### Description
- Add optional `scopes: Option<Vec<String>>` to `McpServerConfig` and
`RawMcpServerConfig`, and propagate it through deserialization and the
built config types.
- Serialize `scopes` into the MCP server TOML via
`serialize_mcp_server_table` in `core/src/config/edit.rs` and include
`scopes` in the generated config schema (`core/config.schema.json`).
- CLI: update `codex-rs/cli/src/mcp_cmd.rs` `run_login` to fall back to
`server.scopes` when the `--scopes` flag is empty, with explicit CLI
scopes still taking precedence.
- App server: update
`codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs`
`mcp_server_oauth_login` to use `params.scopes.or_else(||
server.scopes.clone())` so the RPC path also respects configured scopes.
- Update many test fixtures to initialize the new `scopes` field (set to
`None`) so test code builds with the new struct field.
### Testing
- Ran config tooling and formatters: `just write-config-schema`
(succeeded), `just fmt` (succeeded), and `just fix -p codex-core`, `just
fix -p codex-cli`, `just fix -p codex-app-server` (succeeded where
applicable).
- Ran unit tests for the CLI: `cargo test -p codex-cli` (passed).
- Ran unit tests for core: `cargo test -p codex-core` (ran; many tests
passed but several failed, including model refresh/403-related tests,
shell snapshot/timeouts, and several `unified_exec` expectations).
- Ran app-server tests: `cargo test -p codex-app-server` (ran; many
integration-suite tests failed due to mocked/remote HTTP 401/403
responses and wiremock expectations).
If you want, I can split the tests into smaller focused runs or help
debug the failing integration tests (they appear to be unrelated to the
config change and stem from external HTTP/mocking behaviors encountered
during the test runs).

[Codex
Task](https://chatgpt.com/codex/tasks/task_i_69718f505914832ea1f334b3ba064553)
We've recently standardized a [feature maturity
model](https://developers.openai.com/codex/feature-maturity) that we're
using in our docs and support forums to communicate expectations to
users. This PR updates the internal stage names and descriptions to
match.
This change involves a simple internal rename and updates to a few
user-visible strings. No functional change.
## Summary
- Adds a new `thread/unarchive` RPC to move archived thread rollouts
back into the active `sessions/` tree.
## What changed
- **Protocol**
- Adds `thread/unarchive` request/response types and wiring.
- **Server**
- Implements `thread_unarchive` in the app server.
- Validates the archived rollout path and thread ID.
- Restores the rollout to `sessions/YYYY/MM/DD/...` based on the rollout
filename timestamp.
- **Core**
- Adds `find_archived_thread_path_by_id_str` helper for archived
rollouts.
- **Docs**
- Documents the new RPC and usage example.
- **Tests**
- Adds an end-to-end server test that:
1) starts a thread,
2) archives it,
3) unarchives it,
4) asserts the file is restored to `sessions/`.
## How to use
```json
{ "method": "thread/unarchive", "id": 24, "params": { "threadId": "<thread-id>" } }
```
## Author Codex Session
`codex resume 019bf158-54b6-7960-a696-9d85df7e1bc1` (soon I'll make this
kind of session UUID forkable by anyone with the right
`session_object_storage_url` line in their config, but for now just
pasting it here for my reference)

Reproduce with a prompt like this with collab enabled:
```
Examine the code at <some subdirectory with a deeply nested project>. Find the most urgent issue to resolve and describe it to me.
```
Existing behavior causes the top-level agent to busy wait on subagents.
### Summary
Add `isOther` to question object from request_user_input tool input and
remove `other` option from the tool prompt to better handle tool input.
I've seen this test fail with:
```
- Mock #1.
Expected range of matching incoming requests: == 2
Number of matched incoming requests: 1
```
This is because we pop the wrong task_complete events and then the test
exits. I think this is because the MCP events are now buffered after
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/8874.
So:
1. clear the buffer before we do any user message sending
2. additionally listen for task start before task complete
3. use the ID from task start to find the correct task complete event.
Sessions' `updated_at` times are truncated to seconds, with the UUID
session ID used to break ties. If the two test sessions are created in
the same second, AND the session B UUID < session A UUID, the test
fails.
Fix this by mutating the session mtimes, from which we derive the
updated_at time, to ensure session B is updated_at later than session A.
## Summary
Add dynamic tool injection to thread startup in API v2, wire dynamic
tool calls through the app server to clients, and plumb responses back
into the model tool pipeline.
### Flow (high level)
- Thread start injects `dynamic_tools` into the model tool list for that
thread (validation is done here).
- When the model emits a tool call for one of those names, core raises a
`DynamicToolCallRequest` event.
- The app server forwards it to the client as `item/tool/call`, waits
for the client’s response, then submits a `DynamicToolResponse` back to
core.
- Core turns that into a `function_call_output` in the next model
request so the model can continue.
### What changed
- Added dynamic tool specs to v2 thread start params and protocol types;
introduced `item/tool/call` (request/response) for dynamic tool
execution.
- Core now registers dynamic tool specs at request time and routes those
calls via a new dynamic tool handler.
- App server validates tool names/schemas, forwards dynamic tool call
requests to clients, and publishes tool outputs back into the session.
- Integration tests
## Summary
Move `model_instructions_template` config to the experimental slug while
we iterate on this feature
## Testing
- [x] Tested locally, unit tests still pass
## Summary
Adds /personality selector in the TUI, which leverages the new core
interface in #9644
Notes:
- We are doing some of our own state management for model_info loading
here, but not sure if that's ideal. open to opinions on simpler
approach, but would like to avoid blocking on a larger refactor
- Right now, the `/personality` selector just hides when the model
doesn't support it. we can update this behavior down the line
## Testing
- [x] Tested locally
- [x] Added snapshot tests

## Summary
This PR makes a minor formatting adjustment to a `println!` message by
removing an extra empty line and explicitly using `\n` for clarity.
## Changes
- Adjusted console output formatting for the success message.
- No functional or behavioral changes.
Keep an unmasked base collaboration mode and apply the active mask on
demand. Simplify the TUI mask helpers and update tests/docs to match the
mask contract.
# Summary
- Fix resume/fork config rebuild so cwd changes inside the TUI produce a
fully rebuilt Config (trust/approval/sandbox) instead of mutating only
the cwd.
- Preserve `--add-dir` behavior across resume/fork by normalizing
relative roots to absolute paths once (based on the original cwd).
- Prefer latest `TurnContext.cwd` for resume/fork prompts but fall back
to `SessionMeta.cwd` if the latest cwd no longer exists.
- Align resume/fork selection handling and ensure UI config matches the
resumed thread config.
- Fix Windows test TOML path escaping in trust-level test.
# Details
- Rebuild Config via `ConfigBuilder` when resuming into a different cwd;
carry forward runtime approval/sandbox overrides.
- Add `normalize_harness_overrides_for_cwd` to resolve relative
`additional_writable_roots` against the initial cwd before reuse.
- Guard `read_session_cwd` with filesystem existence check for the
latest `TurnContext.cwd`.
- Update naming/flow around cwd comparison and prompt selection.

/>
### Motivation
- The large ASCII welcome animation can push onboarding content below
the fold on default-height terminals, making the CLI appear
unresponsive; raising the breakpoint prevents that.
- The existing test measured an arbitrary row count rather than
asserting the welcome line position relative to the animation frame,
which made the intent unclear.
### Description
- Increase `MIN_ANIMATION_HEIGHT` from `20` to `37` in
`codex-rs/tui/src/onboarding/welcome.rs` so the animation is skipped
unless there is enough vertical space.
- Replace the brittle measurement logic in the welcome render test with
a `row_containing` helper and assert the welcome row equals the frame
height plus the spacer line (`frame_lines + 1`).
- Add a regression test
`welcome_skips_animation_below_height_breakpoint` that verifies the
animation is not rendered when the viewport height is one row below the
breakpoint.
### Testing
- Ran formatting with `~/.cargo/bin/just fmt` which completed
successfully.
- Ran unit tests for the crate with `cargo test -p codex-tui --lib` and
they passed (unit test suite succeeded).
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-tui` which reported a failing integration
test in this environment because the test cannot locate the `codex`
binary, so full crate tests are blocked here (environment limitation).

[Codex
Task](https://chatgpt.com/codex/tasks/task_i_6973b0a710d4832c9ff36fac26eb1519)
**Summary**
- Prevent backspace from removing a text element when the cursor is at
the element’s left edge.
- Instead just delete the char before the placeholder (moving it to the
left).
## Summary
- Remove elevated runner request files after read (best-effort cleanup
on errors)
- Add a unit test to cover request file lifecycle
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-windows-sandbox` (Windows)
Fixes#9315
In a [recent PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9182), I made some
improvements to config error messages so errors didn't leave app server
clients in a dead state. This is a follow-on PR to make these error
messages more readable and actionable for both TUI and GUI users. For
example, see #9668 where the user was understandably confused about the
source of the problem and how to fix it.
The improved error message:
1. Clearly identifies the config file where the error was found (which
is more important now that we support layered configs)
2. Provides a line and column number of the error
3. Displays the line where the error occurred and underlines it
For example, if my `config.toml` includes the following:
```toml
[features]
collaboration_modes = "true"
```
Here's the current CLI error message:
```
Error loading config.toml: invalid type: string "true", expected a boolean in `features`
```
And here's the improved message:
```
Error loading config.toml:
/Users/etraut/.codex/config.toml:43:23: invalid type: string "true", expected a boolean
|
43 | collaboration_modes = "true"
| ^^^^^^
```
The bulk of the new logic is contained within a new module
`config_loader/diagnostics.rs` that is responsible for calculating the
text range for a given toml path (which is more involved than I would
have expected).
In addition, this PR adds the file name and text range to the
`ConfigWarningNotification` app server struct. This allows GUI clients
to present the user with a better error message and an optional link to
open the errant config file. This was a suggestion from @.bolinfest when
he reviewed my previous PR.
This add a new crate, `codex-network-proxy`, a local network proxy
service used by Codex to enforce fine-grained network policy (domain
allow/deny) and to surface blocked network events for interactive
approvals.
- New crate: `codex-rs/network-proxy/` (`codex-network-proxy` binary +
library)
- Core capabilities:
- HTTP proxy support (including CONNECT tunneling)
- SOCKS5 proxy support (in the later PR)
- policy evaluation (allowed/denied domain lists; denylist wins;
wildcard support)
- small admin API for polling/reload/mode changes
- optional MITM support for HTTPS CONNECT to enforce “limited mode”
method restrictions (later PR)
Will follow up integration with codex in subsequent PRs.
## Testing
- `cd codex-rs && cargo build -p codex-network-proxy`
- `cd codex-rs && cargo run -p codex-network-proxy -- proxy`
### Motivation
- Remove an outdated comment in `defs.bzl` referencing
`cargo_build_script` that is no longer relevant.
### Description
- Delete the stale `# TODO(zbarsky): cargo_build_script support?` line
so the logic flows directly from `binaries` to `lib_srcs` in `defs.bzl`.
### Testing
- Ran `git diff --check` which produced no errors.

Fixes#9501
Contributing guide:
https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/docs/contributing.md
## Summary
The resume picker requires a session_meta line and at least one
user_message event within the initial head scan. Some rollout files
contain multiple session_meta entries before the first user_message, so
the user event can fall outside the default head window and the session
is omitted from the picker even though it is resumable by ID.
This PR keeps the head summary bounded but extends scanning for a
user_message once a session_meta has been observed. The summary still
caps stored head entries, but we allow a small, bounded extra scan to
find the first user event so valid sessions are not filtered out.
## Changes
- Continue scanning past the head limit (bounded) when session_meta is
present but no user_message has been seen yet.
- Mark session_meta as seen even if the head summary buffer is already
full.
- Add a regression test with multiple session_meta lines before the
first user_message.
## Why This Is Safe
- The head summary remains bounded to avoid unbounded memory usage.
- The extra scan is capped (USER_EVENT_SCAN_LIMIT) and only triggers
after a session_meta is seen.
- Behavior is unchanged for typical files where the user_message appears
early.
## Testing
- cargo test -p codex-core --lib
test_list_threads_scans_past_head_for_user_event
## Summary
Upgrade GitHub Actions to their latest versions to ensure compatibility
with Node 24, as Node 20 will reach end-of-life in April 2026.
## Changes
| Action | Old Version(s) | New Version | Release | Files |
|--------|---------------|-------------|---------|-------|
| `actions/cache` |
[`v4`](https://github.com/actions/cache/releases/tag/v4) |
[`v5`](https://github.com/actions/cache/releases/tag/v5) |
[Release](https://github.com/actions/cache/releases/tag/v5) | bazel.yml
|
## Context
Per [GitHub's
announcement](https://github.blog/changelog/2025-09-19-deprecation-of-node-20-on-github-actions-runners/),
Node 20 is being deprecated and runners will begin using Node 24 by
default starting March 4th, 2026.
### Why this matters
- **Node 20 EOL**: April 2026
- **Node 24 default**: March 4th, 2026
- **Action**: Update to latest action versions that support Node 24
### Security Note
Actions that were previously pinned to commit SHAs remain pinned to SHAs
(updated to the latest release SHA) to maintain the security benefits of
immutable references.
### Testing
These changes only affect CI/CD workflow configurations and should not
impact application functionality. The workflows should be tested by
running them on a branch before merging.

## Summary
Fixes#7522
The `--yolo` (`--dangerously-bypass-approvals-and-sandbox`) flag is
documented to skip all confirmation prompts and execute commands without
sandboxing, intended solely for running in environments that are
externally sandboxed. However, it was not bypassing the trusted
directory (git repo) check, requiring users to also specify
`--skip-git-repo-check`.
This change makes `--yolo` also skip the git repo check, matching the
documented behavior and user expectations.
## Changes
- Modified `codex-rs/exec/src/lib.rs` to check for
`dangerously_bypass_approvals_and_sandbox` flag in addition to
`skip_git_repo_check` when determining whether to skip the git repo
check
## Testing
- Verified the code compiles with `cargo check -p codex-exec`
- Ran existing tests with `cargo test -p codex-exec` (34 passed, 8
integration tests failed due to unrelated API connectivity issues)

**Summary**
- Backtrack selection now rehydrates `text_elements` and
`local_image_paths` from the chosen user history cell so Esc‑Esc history
edits preserve image placeholders and attachments.
- Composer prefill uses the preserved elements/attachments in both `tui`
and `tui2`.
- Extended backtrack selection tests to cover image placeholder elements
and local image paths.
**Changes**
- `tui/src/app_backtrack.rs`: Backtrack selection now carries text
elements + local image paths; composer prefill uses them (removes TODO).
- `tui2/src/app_backtrack.rs`: Same as above.
- `tui/src/app.rs`: Updated backtrack test to assert restored
elements/paths.
- `tui2/src/app.rs`: Same test updates.
### The original scope of this PR (threading text elements and image
attachments through the codex harness thoroughly/persistently) was
broken into the following PRs other than this one:
The diff of this PR was reduced by changing types in a starter PR:
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9235
Then text element metadata was added to protocol, app server, and core
in this PR: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9331
Then the end-to-end flow was completed by wiring TUI/TUI2 input,
history, and restore behavior in
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9393
Prompt expansion was supported in this PR:
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9518
TextElement optional placeholder field was protected in
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9545
## What
Fix bash command parsing to accept double-quoted strings that contain
literal newlines so execpolicy can match allow rules.
## Why
Allow rules like [git, commit] should still match when commit messages
include a newline in a quoted argument; the parser currently rejects
these strings and falls back to the outer shell invocation.
## How
- Validate double-quoted strings by ensuring all named children are
string_content and then stripping the outer quotes from the raw node
text so embedded newlines are preserved.
- Reuse the helper for concatenated arguments.
- Ensure large SI suffix formatting uses the caller-provided locale
formatter for grouping.
- Add coverage for newline-containing quoted arguments.
Fixes#9541.
## Tests
- cargo test -p codex-core
- just fix -p codex-core
- cargo test -p codex-protocol
- just fix -p codex-protocol
- cargo test --all-features
## Summary
- hide the “(shift+tab to cycle)” suffix on the collaboration mode label
while a task is running
- keep the cycle hint visible when idle
- add a snapshot to cover the running-task label state
### Motivation
Exposes a per-thread / per-turn `personality` override in the v2
app-server API so clients can influence model communication style at
thread/turn start. Ensures the override is passed into the session
configuration resolution so it becomes effective for subsequent turns
and headless runners.
### Testing
- [x] Add an integration-style test
`turn_start_accepts_personality_override_v2` in
`codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/turn_start.rs` that verifies a
`/personality` override results in a developer update message containing
`<personality_spec>` in the outbound model request.

Task](https://chatgpt.com/codex/tasks/task_i_6971d646b1c08322a689a54d2649f3fe)
In order to make Codex work with connectors, we add a built-in gateway
MCP that acts as a transparent proxy between the client and the
connectors. The gateway MCP collects actions that are accessible to the
user and sends them down to the user, when a connector action is chosen
to be called, the client invokes the action through the gateway MCP as
well.
- [x] Add the system built-in gateway MCP to list and run connectors.
- [x] Add the app server methods and protocol
This fixes a bug where the elevated sandbox setup encrypts sandbox user
passwords as an admin user, but normal command execution attempts to
decrypt them as a different user.
Machine scope allows all users to encyrpt/decrypt
this PR also moves the encrypted file to a different location
.codex/.sandbox-secrets which the sandbox users cannot read.
## Summary
- Replace the plan‑implementation prompt with a standard selection
popup.
- “Yes” submits a user turn in Execute via a dedicated app event to
preserve normal transcript behavior.
- “No” simply dismisses the popup.

/>
## Changes
- Add a plan‑implementation popup using `SelectionViewParams`.
- Add `SubmitUserMessageWithMode` so “Yes” routes through
`submit_user_message` (ensures user history + separator state).
- Track `saw_plan_update_this_turn` so the prompt appears even when only
`update_plan` is emitted.
- Suppress the plan popup on replayed turns, when messages are queued,
or when a rate‑limit prompt is pending.
- Add `execute_mode` helper for collaboration modes.
- Add tests for replay/queued/rate‑limit guards and plan update without
final message.
- Add snapshots for both the default and “No”‑selected popup states.
The formatting of `codex features list` made it hard to follow. This PR
introduces column width math to make things nice.
Maybe slightly hard to machine-parse (since not a simple `\t`), but we
should introduce a `--json` option if that's really important.
You can see the before/after in the screenshot:

## Summary
Support updating Personality mid-Thread via UserTurn/OverwriteTurn. This
is explicitly unused by the clients so far, to simplify PRs - app-server
and tui implementations will be follow-ups.
## Testing
- [x] added integration tests
# Summary
- Add a collaboration mode indicator rendered at the bottom-right of the
TUI composer footer.
- Style modes per design (Plan in #D72EE1, Execute matching dim context
style, Pair Programming using the same cyan as text elements).
- Add shared “(shift+tab to cycle)” hint text for all mode labels and
align the indicator with the left footer margin.
NOTE: currently this is hidden if the Collaboration Modes feature flag
is disabled, or in Custom mode. Maybe we should show it in Custom mode
too? I'll leave that out of this PR though
# UI
- Mode indicator appears below the textarea, bottom-right of the footer
line.
- Includes “(shift+tab to cycle)” and keeps right padding aligned to the
left footer indent.

### Summary
We now rely purely on `item/commandExecution/requestApproval` item to
render pending approval in VSCE and app. With v2 approach, it does not
include the actual cmd that it is attempting and therefore we can only
use `proposedExecpolicyAmendment` to render which can be incomplete.
### Reproduce
* Add `prefix_rule(pattern=["echo"], decision="prompt")` to your
`~/.codex/rules.default.rules`.
* Ask to `Run echo "approval-test" please` in VSCE or app.
* The pending approval protal does show up but with no content

"reason":"`/bin/zsh -lc 'echo \"testing\"'` requires approval by policy",

}}
```
### Fix
Inlude `command` string, `cwd` and `command_actions` in
`CommandExecutionRequestApprovalParams` so that consumers can display
the correct command instead of relying on exec policy output.
## What?
- Downgrade the closed-channel send error log to debug in
`codex-rs/core/src/codex.rs`.
## Why?
- `async_channel::Sender::send` only fails when the channel is closed,
so the current error-level log is noisy during normal shutdown. See
issue #9652.
## How?
- Replace the error log with a debug log on send failure.
## Tests
- `just fmt`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `cargo test -p codex-core`
## Summary
Adds the `/permissions` command, with a (usually) shorter set of
permissions. `/approvals` still exists, for backwards compatibility.

## Summary
#9555 is the start of a rename, so I'm starting to standardize here.
Sets up `model_instructions` templating with a strongly-typed object for
injecting a personality block into the model instructions.
## Testing
- [x] Added tests

## Summary
- Retire the experimental TUI2 implementation and its feature flag.
- Remove TUI2-only config/schema/docs so the CLI stays on the
terminal-native path.
- Keep docs aligned with the legacy TUI while we focus on redraw-based
improvements.
## Customer impact
- Retires the TUI2 experiment and keeps Codex on the proven
terminal-native UI while we invest in redraw-based improvements to the
existing experience.
## Migration / compatibility
- If you previously set tui2-related options in config.toml, they are
now ignored and Codex continues using the existing terminal-native TUI
(no action required).
## Context
- What worked: a transcript-owned viewport delivered excellent resize
rewrap and high-fidelity copy (especially for code).
- Why stop: making that experience feel fully native across the
environment matrix (terminal emulator, OS, input modality, multiplexer,
font/theme, alt-screen behavior) creates a combinatorial explosion of
edge cases.
- What next: we are focusing on redraw-based improvements to the
existing terminal-native TUI so scrolling, selection, and copy remain
native while resize/redraw correctness improves.

## Summary
- make paste-burst tests deterministic by injecting explicit timestamps
instead of relying on wall clock timing
- add time-aware helpers for input/submission paths so tests can drive
the burst heuristic precisely
- update burst-related tests to flush using computed timeouts while
preserving behavior assertions
- increase timeout slack in
shell_tools_start_before_response_completed_when_stream_delayed to
reduce flakiness
Follow up to #8956; publish schema on new release to stable URL.
Also canonicalize schema (sort keys) when writing. This avoids reliance
on default `schema_rs` behavior and makes the schema easier to read.
## Summary
When we send multiple assistant messages, reset the timer so "Worked for
2m 36s" is the time since the last time we showed the message, rather
than an ever-increasing number.
We could instead change the copy so it's more clearly a running counter.

This PR changes the way we sort slash command by going in this order:
1. Exact match
2. Prefix
3. Fuzzy
As a result, we you type `/ps` the default command is not `/approvals`
This PR adds support for chained (layered) config.toml file merging for
clients that use the app server interface. This feature already exists
for the TUI, but it does not work for GUI clients.
It does the following:
* Changes code paths for new thread, resume thread, and fork thread to
use the effective config based on the cwd.
* Updates the `config/read` API to accept an optional `cwd` parameter.
If specified, the API returns the effective config based on that cwd
path. Also optionally includes all layers including project config
files. If cwd is not specified, the API falls back on its older behavior
where it considers only the global (non-project) config files when
computing the effective config.
The changes in codex_message_processor.rs look deceptively large. They
mostly just involve moving existing blocks of code to a later point in
some functions so it can use the cwd to calculate the config.
This PR builds upon #9509 and should be reviewed and merged after that
PR.
Tested:
* Verified change with (dependent, as-yet-uncommitted) changes to IDE
Extension and confirmed correct behavior
The full fix requires additional changes in the IDE Extension code base,
but they depend on this PR.
## Summary
- add optional `collaboration_mode` to `TurnContextItem` in rollouts
- persist the current collaboration mode when recording turn context
(sampling + compaction)
## Rationale
We already persist turn context data for resume logic. Capturing
collaboration mode in the rollout gives us the mode context for each
turn, enabling follow‑up work to diff mode instructions correctly on
resume.
## Changes
- protocol: add optional `collaboration_mode` field to `TurnContextItem`
- core: persist collaboration mode alongside other turn context settings
in rollouts
On bazel9 this lets us avoid performing some external repo downloads if
they've been previously uploaded to remote cache, downloads are deferred
until they are actually needed to execute an uncached action
### Motivation
- Prevent inputs like `~//` or `~///etc` from expanding to arbitrary
absolute paths (e.g. `/`) because `Path::join` discards the left side
when the right side is absolute, which could allow config values to
escape `HOME` and broaden writable roots.
### Description
- In `codex-rs/utils/absolute-path/src/lib.rs` update
`maybe_expand_home_directory` to trim leading separators from the suffix
and return `home` when the remainder is empty so tilde expansion stays
rooted under `HOME`.
- Add a non-Windows unit test
`home_directory_double_slash_on_non_windows_is_expanded_in_deserialization`
that validates `"~//code"` expands to `home.join("code")`.
### Testing
- Ran `just fmt` successfully.
- Ran `just fix -p codex-utils-absolute-path` (Clippy autofix)
successfully.
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-utils-absolute-path` and all tests passed.

## Summary
- Keep `request_user_input` in the tool list but reject it at runtime in
Execute/Custom modes with a clear model-facing error.
- Add a session accessor for current collaboration mode and enforce the
gate in the request_user_input handler.
- Update core/app-server tests to use Plan mode for success and add
Execute/Custom rejection coverage.
Summary
- Preserve `text_elements` through custom prompt argument parsing and
expansion (named and numeric placeholders).
- Translate text element ranges through Shlex parsing using sentinel
substitution, and rehydrate text + element ranges per arg.
- Drop image attachments when their placeholder does not survive prompt
expansion, keeping attachments consistent with rendered elements.
- Mirror changes in TUI2 and expand tests for prompt parsing/expansion
edge cases.
Tests
- placeholders with spaces as single tokens (positional + key=value,
quoted + unquoted),
- prompt expansion with image placeholders,
- large paste + image arg combinations,
- unused image arg dropped after expansion.
Using terminal with TERM=dumb specifically mean that TUIs and the like
don't work. Ensure that codex doesn't run in these environments and exit
with odd errors like crossterm's "Error: The cursor position could not
be read within a normal duration"

### What
Implemented detection for dangerous "force delete" commands on Windows
to trigger the user approval prompt when `--ask-for-approval on-request`
is set. This aligns Windows behavior with the existing safety checks for
`rm -rf` on Linux.
### Why
Fixes#8567 - a critical safety gap where destructive Windows commands
could bypass the approval prompt. This prevents accidental data loss by
ensuring the user explicitly confirms operations that would otherwise
suppress the OS's native confirmation prompts.
### How
Updated the Windows command safety module to identify and flag the
following patterns as dangerous:
* **PowerShell**:
* Detects `Remove-Item` (and aliases `rm`, `ri`, `del`, `erase`, `rd`,
`rmdir`) when used with the `-Force` flag.
* Uses token-based analysis to robustly detect these patterns even
inside script blocks (`{...}`), sub-expression `(...)`, or
semicolon-chained sequences.
* **CMD**:
* Detects `del /f` (force delete files).
* Detects `rd /s /q` (recursive delete quiet).
* **Command Chaining**: Added support for analyzing chained commands
(using `&`, `&&`, `|`, `||`) to separate and check individual commands
(e.g., catching `del /f` hidden in `echo log & del /f data`).
### Testing
Added comprehensive unit tests covering:
* **PowerShell**: `Remove-Item -Path 'test' -Recurse -Force` (Exact
reproduction case).
* **Complex Syntax**: Verified detection inside blocks (e.g., `if
($true) { rm -Force }`) and with trailing punctuation.
* **CMD**:
* `del /f` (Flagged).
* `rd /s /q` (Flagged).
* Chained commands: `echo hi & del /f file` (Flagged).
* **False Positives**:
* `rd /s` (Not flagged - relies on native prompt).
* Standard deletions without force flags.
Verified with `cargo test` and `cargo clippy`.

Despite good spacing between queued messages and assistant message text:

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e8b46252-0b33-40d2-b431-cb73b9a3bd2e"
/>
Codex has confusing spacing between queued messages and shimmering
status text (making the queued message seem like a sub-item of the
shimmering status text)
<img width="615" height="217" alt="Screenshot 2026-01-12 at 4 54 18 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ee5e6095-8fe9-4863-88d2-10472cab8bd6"
/>
This PR changes the spacing between the queued message(s) and shimmering
status text to make it less confusing:
<img width="440" height="240" alt="Screenshot 2026-01-13 at 11 20 36 AM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/02dcc690-cbe9-4943-87de-c7300ef51120"
/>
While working on the status/queued spacing change, we noticed two
paste‑burst tests were timing‑sensitive and could fail
on slower CI. We added a small test‑only helper to keep the paste‑burst
state active and refreshed during these tests. This
removes dependence on tight timing and makes the tests deterministic
without affecting runtime behavior.
## Summary
Fixes#9520
The `bin/codex.js` file was missing execute permissions (`644` instead
of `755`), causing the `codex` command to fail after npm global
installation.
## Changes
- Added execute permission (`+x`) to `codex-cli/bin/codex.js`
## Verification
After this fix, npm tarballs will include the correct file permissions:
```bash
# Before: -rw-r--r-- (644)
# After: -rwxr-xr-x (755)
```

## Summary
- Make `TextElement` placeholders private and add a text-backed accessor
to avoid assuming `Some`.
- Since they are optional in the protocol, we want to make sure any
accessors properly handle the None case (getting the placeholder using
the byte range in the text)
- Preserve placeholders during protocol/app-server conversions using the
accessor fallback.
- Update TUI composer/remap logic and tests to use the new
constructor/accessor.
We have `models.json` and `/models` response
Behavior:
1. New models from models endpoint gets added
2. Shared models get replaced by remote ones
3. Existing models in `models.json` but not `/models` are kept
4. Mark highest priority as default

Remove `FileTimes::new().set_modified(SystemTime::now())` when resuming
a thread.
Context: It's awkward in UI built on top of app-server that resuming a
thread bumps the `updated_at` timestamp, even if no message is sent. So
if you open a thread (perhaps to just view its contents), it
automatically reorders it to the top which is almost certainly not what
you want.
## What
Record a model-visible `<turn_aborted>` marker in history when a turn is
interrupted, and treat it as a session prefix.
## Why
When a turn is interrupted, Codex emits `TurnAborted` but previously did
not persist anything model-visible in the conversation history. On the
next user turn, the model can’t tell the previous work was aborted and
may resume/repeat earlier actions (including duplicated side effects
like re-opening PRs).
Fixes: https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/9042
## How
On `TurnAbortReason::Interrupted`, append a hidden user message
containing a `<turn_aborted>…</turn_aborted>` marker and flush.
Treat `<turn_aborted>` like `<environment_context>` for session-prefix
filtering.
Add a regression test to ensure follow-up turns don’t repeat side
effects from an aborted turn.

This PR fixes a small issue with chained (layered) config.toml file
merging. The old logic didn't properly handle profiles.
In particular, if a lower-layer config overrides a profile defined in a
higher-layer config, the override did not take effect. This prevents
users from having project-specific profile overrides and contradicts the
(soon-to-be) documented behavior of config merging.
The change adds a unit test for this case. It also exposes a function
from the config crate that is needed by the app server code paths to
implement support for layered configs.
## Summary
Introduces the concept of a config model_personality. I would consider
this an MVP for testing out the feature. There are a number of
follow-ups to this PR:
- More sophisticated templating with validation
- In-product experience to manage this
## Testing
- [x] Testing locally
Fixes:
```
[sandbox_workspace_write]
writable_roots = ["~/code/"]
```
translates to
```
/Users/ccunningham/.codex/~/code
```
(i.e. the home dir symbol isn't recognized)
- Only use collaboration modes in the tui state to track model and
effort.
- No behavior change without the collaboration modes flag.
- Change model and effort on /model, /collab (behind a flag), and
shift+tab (behind flag)
Config includes multiple code execution entrypoints.
Now, we load the config from predetermined locations first
(~/.codex/config.toml etc), use those to learn which folders are
'trusted', and only load additional config from the CWD if it is
trusted.
Continuation of breaking up this PR
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9116
## Summary
- Thread user text element ranges through TUI/TUI2 input, submission,
queueing, and history so placeholders survive resume/edit flows.
- Preserve local image attachments alongside text elements and rehydrate
placeholders when restoring drafts.
- Keep model-facing content shapes clean by attaching UI metadata only
to user input/events (no API content changes).
## Key Changes
- TUI/TUI2 composer now captures text element ranges, trims them with
text edits, and restores them when submission is suppressed.
- User history cells render styled spans for text elements and keep
local image paths for future rehydration.
- Initial chat widget bootstraps accept empty `initial_text_elements` to
keep initialization uniform.
- Protocol/core helpers updated to tolerate the new InputText field
shape without changing payloads sent to the API.
## Summary
This PR consolidates base_instructions onto SessionMeta /
SessionConfiguration, so we ensure `base_instructions` is set once per
session and should be (mostly) immutable, unless:
- overridden by config on resume / fork
- sub-agent tasks, like review or collab
In a future PR, we should convert all references to `base_instructions`
to consistently used the typed struct, so it's less likely that we put
other strings there. See #9423. However, this PR is already quite
complex, so I'm deferring that to a follow-up.
## Testing
- [x] Added a resume test to assert that instructions are preserved. In
particular, `resume_switches_models_preserves_base_instructions` fails
against main.
Existing test coverage thats assert base instructions are preserved
across multiple requests in a session:
- Manual compact keeps baseline instructions:
core/tests/suite/compact.rs:199
- Auto-compact keeps baseline instructions:
core/tests/suite/compact.rs:1142
- Prompt caching reuses the same instructions across two requests:
core/tests/suite/prompt_caching.rs:150 and
core/tests/suite/prompt_caching.rs:157
- Prompt caching with explicit expected string across two requests:
core/tests/suite/prompt_caching.rs:213 and
core/tests/suite/prompt_caching.rs:222
- Resume with model switch keeps original instructions:
core/tests/suite/resume.rs:136
- Compact/resume/fork uses request 0 instructions for later expected
payloads: core/tests/suite/compact_resume_fork.rs:215
- `tui/` and `tui2/` submit `Op::UserTurn` and own full turn context
(cwd/approval/sandbox/model/etc.).
- `Op::UserInput` is documented as legacy in `codex-protocol` (doc-only;
no `#[deprecated]` to avoid `-D warnings` fallout).
- Remove obsolete `#[allow(deprecated)]` and the unused `ConversationId`
alias/re-export.
Fixes#9450
## What
- When a task is running and the skills autocomplete popup is open,
`Esc` now dismisses the popup instead of sending `Op::Interrupt`.
- `Esc` still interrupts a running task when no popup is active.
## Tests
- `cargo test -p codex-tui`

* Added the output to be json with `plan` key and the actual plan as the
value.
* Remove `PLAN.md` write because that gets into sandbox issue. We can
add it back later.
Users of Azure endpoints are reporting that when they use `/review`,
they sometimes see an error "Invalid 'input[3].id". I suspect this is
specific to the Azure implementation of the `responses` API. The Azure
team generally copies the OpenAI code for this endpoint, but they do
have minor differences and sometimes lag in rolling out bug fixes or
updates.
The error appears to be triggered because the `/review` implementation
is using a user ID with a colon in it.

We already support reading from `config.toml` through a symlink, but the
code was not properly handling updates to a symlinked config file. This
PR generalizes safe symlink-chain resolution and atomic writes into
path_utils, updating all config write paths to use the shared logic
(including set_default_oss_provider, which previously didn't use the
common path), and adds tests for symlink chains and cycles.
This resolves#6646.
Notes:
* Symlink cycles or resolution failures replace the top-level symlink
with a real file.
* Shared config write path now handles symlinks consistently across
edits, defaults, and empty-user-layer creation.

## Summary
When the transcript backtrack preview is armed (press `Esc`), allow
navigating to newer user messages with the `→` arrow, in addition to
navigating backwards with `Esc`/`←`, before confirming with `Enter`.
## Changes
- Backtrack preview navigation: `Esc`/`←` steps to older user messages,
`→` steps to newer ones, `Enter` edits the selected message (clamped at
bounds, no wrap-around).
- Transcript overlay footer hints updated to advertise `esc/←`, `→`, and
`enter` when a message is highlighted.

### Description
- Remove the now-unused `instructions` field from the session metadata
to simplify SessionMeta and stop propagating transient instruction text
through the rollout recorder API. This was only saving
user_instructions, and was never being read.
- Stop passing user instructions into the rollout writer at session
creation so the rollout header only contains canonical session metadata.
### Testing
- Ran `just fmt` which completed successfully.
- Ran `just fix -p codex-protocol`, `just fix -p codex-core`, `just fix
-p codex-app-server`, `just fix -p codex-tui`, and `just fix -p
codex-tui2` which completed (Clippy fixes applied) as part of
verification.
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-protocol` which passed (28 tests).
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-core` which showed failures in a small set of
tests (not caused by the protocol type change directly):
`default_client::tests::test_create_client_sets_default_headers`,
several `models_manager::manager::tests::refresh_available_models_*`,
and `shell_snapshot::tests::linux_sh_snapshot_includes_sections` (these
tests failed in this CI run).
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-app-server` which reported several failing
integration tests (including
`suite::codex_message_processor_flow::test_codex_jsonrpc_conversation_flow`,
`suite::output_schema::send_user_turn_*`, and
`suite::user_agent::get_user_agent_returns_current_codex_user_agent`).
- `cargo test -p codex-tui` and `cargo test -p codex-tui2` were
attempted but aborted due to disk space exhaustion (`No space left on
device`).

## Summary
We have a variety of things we refer to as instructions in the code
base: our current canonical terms are:
- base instructions (raw string)
- developer instructions (has a type in protocol)
- user instructions
We also have `instructions` floating around in various places. We should
standardize on the above, and start using types to prevent them from
ending up in the wrong place. There will be additional PRs, but I'm
going to keep these small so we can easily follow them!
## Testing
- [x] Tests pass, this is purely a file move
Fix unified_exec_timeouts to use a unique variable value rather than
"codex" which was causing false positives when running tests locally
(presumably from my bash prompts). Discovered while running tests to
validate another change.
Fixes https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/9413
Test Plan:
Ran test locally on my fedora 43 x86_64 machine with:
```
cd codex/cargo-rs
cargo nextest run --all-features --no-fail-fast unified_exec::tests::unified_exec_timeouts
```
Before, unified_exec_timeouts fails:

Document the backtrack/rollback state machine and invariants between the
transcript overlay, in-flight “live tail”, and core thread state (tui + tui2).
Also adjust behavior for correctness:
- Track a single pending rollback and block additional rollbacks until core responds.
- Defer trimming transcript cells until ThreadRolledBack for the active session.
- Clear the guard on ThreadRollbackFailed so the user can retry.
- After a confirmed trim, schedule a one-shot scrollback refresh on the next draw.
- Clear stale pending rollback state when switching sessions.

**Goal**: Prevent response.failed events with `invalid_prompt` from
being treated as retryable errors so the UI shows the actual error
message instead of continually retrying.
**Before**: Codex would continue to retry despite the prompt being
marked as disallowed
**After**: Codex will stop retrying once prompt is marked disallowed
- Merge `model` and `reasoning_effort` under collaboration modes.
- Add additional instructions for custom collaboration mode
- Default to Custom to not change behavior
Summary:
- Add forked_from to SessionMeta/SessionConfiguredEvent and persist it
for forked sessions.
- Surface forked_from in /status for tui + tui2 and add snapshots.
Add support for returning threads by either `created_at` OR `updated_at`
descending. Previously core always returned threads ordered by
`created_at`.
This PR:
- updates core to be able to list threads by `updated_at` OR
`created_at` descending based on what the caller wants
- also update `thread/list` in app-server to expose this (default to
`created_at` if not specified)
All existing codepaths (app-server, TUI) still default to `created_at`,
so no behavior change is expected with this PR.
**Implementation**
To sort by `updated_at` is a bit nontrivial (whereas `created_at` is
easy due to the way we structure the folders and filenames on disk,
which are all based on `created_at`).
The most naive way to do this without introducing a cache file or sqlite
DB (which we have to implement/maintain) is to scan files in reverse
`created_at` order on disk, and look at the file's mtime (last modified
timestamp according to the filesystem) until we reach `MAX_SCAN_FILES`
(currently set to 10,000). Then, we can return the most recent N
threads.
Based on some quick and dirty benchmarking on my machine with ~1000
rollout files, calling `thread/list` with limit 50, the `updated_at`
path is slower as expected due to all the I/O:
- updated-at: average 103.10 ms
- created-at: average 41.10 ms
Those absolute numbers aren't a big deal IMO, but we can certainly
optimize this in a followup if needed by introducing more state stored
on disk.
**Caveat**
There's also a limitation in that any files older than `MAX_SCAN_FILES`
will be excluded, which means if a user continues a REALLY old thread,
it's possible to not be included. In practice that should not be too big
of an issue.
If a user makes...
- 1000 rollouts/day → threads older than 10 days won't show up
- 100 rollouts/day → ~100 days
If this becomes a problem for some reason, even more motivation to
implement an updated_at cache.
Implemented /fork to fork the current session directly (no picker),
handling it via a new ForkCurrentSession app event in both tui and tui2.
Updated slash command descriptions/tooltips and adjusted the fork tests
accordingly. Removed the unused in-session fork picker event.
- capture the header from SSE/WS handshakes, store it per
ModelClientSession using `Oncelock`, echo it on turn-scoped requests,
and add SSE+WS integration tests for within-turn persistence +
cross-turn reset.
- keep `x-codex-turn-state` sticky within a user turn to maintain
routing continuity for retries/tool follow-ups.
PR #9245 made `codex resume --last` honor cwd, but I forgot to make the
same change for `codex exec resume --last`. This PR fixes the
inconsistency.
This addresses #8700
A thread can now be spawned by another thread. In order to process the
approval requests of such sub-threads, we need to detect those event and
show them in the TUI.
This is a temporary solution while the UX is being figured out. This PR
should be reverted once done
Fixes#7919.
This PR addresses a TUI display bug where the "Worked for" separator
would appear prematurely during the planning stage.
**Changes:**
- Added `had_work_activity` flag to `ChatWidget` to track if actual work
(exec commands, MCP tool calls, patches) was performed in the current
turn.
- Updated `handle_streaming_delta` to only display the
`FinalMessageSeparator` if both `needs_final_message_separator` AND
`had_work_activity` are true.
- Updated `handle_exec_end_now`, `handle_patch_apply_end_now`, and
`handle_mcp_end_now` to set `had_work_activity = true`.
**Verification:**
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-tui` to ensure no regressions.
- Manual verification confirms the separator now only appears after
actual work is completed.

The second part of breaking up PR
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9116
Summary:
- Add `TextElement` / `ByteRange` to protocol user inputs and user
message events with defaults.
- Thread `text_elements` through app-server v1/v2 request handling and
history rebuild.
- Preserve UI metadata only in user input/events (not `ContentItem`)
while keeping local image attachments in user events for rehydration.
Details:
- Protocol: `UserInput::Text` carries `text_elements`;
`UserMessageEvent` carries `text_elements` + `local_images`.
Serialization includes empty vectors for backward compatibility.
- app-server-protocol: v1 defines `V1TextElement` / `V1ByteRange` in
camelCase with conversions; v2 uses its own camelCase wrapper.
- app-server: v1/v2 input mapping includes `text_elements`; thread
history rebuilds include them.
- Core: user event emission preserves UI metadata while model history
stays clean; history replay round-trips the metadata.
## Summary
- When a user accepts an MCP elicitation request, send `content:
Some(json!({}))` instead of `None`
- MCP servers that use elicitation expect content to be present when
action is Accept
- This matches the expected behavior shown in tests at
`exec-server/tests/common/lib.rs:171`
## Root Cause
In `codex-rs/core/src/codex.rs`, the `resolve_elicitation` function
always sent `content: None`:
```rust
let response = ElicitationResponse {
action,
content: None, // Always None, even for Accept
};
```
## Fix
Send an empty object when accepting:
```rust
let content = match action {
ElicitationAction::Accept => Some(serde_json::json!({})),
ElicitationAction::Decline | ElicitationAction::Cancel => None,
};
```
## Test plan
- [x] Code compiles with `cargo check -p codex-core`
- [x] Formatted with `just fmt`
- [ ] Integration test `accept_elicitation_for_prompt_rule` (requires
MCP server binary)
Fixes#9053
moving `web_search` rollout serverside, so need a way to explicitly
disable search + signal eligibility from the client.
- Add `x‑oai‑web‑search‑eligible` header that signifies whether the
request can have web search.
- Only attach the `web_search` tool when the resolved `WebSearchMode` is
`Live` or `Cached`.
We’re introducing a new SKILL.toml to hold skill metadata so Codex can
deliver a richer Skills experience.
Initial focus is the interface block:
```
[interface]
display_name = "Optional user-facing name"
short_description = "Optional user-facing description"
icon_small = "./assets/small-400px.png"
icon_large = "./assets/large-logo.svg"
brand_color = "#3B82F6"
default_prompt = "Optional surrounding prompt to use the skill with"
```
All fields are exposed via the app server API.
display_name and short_description are consumed by the TUI.
A recent change in commit ccba737d26 modified the styling of the
placeholder text (e.g. "Implement {feature}") in the input box of the
CLI, changing it from non-italic to italic. I think this was likely
unintentional. It results in a bad display appearance on some terminal
emulators, and several users have complained about it.
This change switches back to non-italic styling, restoring the older
behavior.
It addresses #9262
**Description**
This removes the pre‑Landlock read‑only bind‑mount step from the Linux
sandbox so filesystem restrictions rely solely on Landlock again.
`mounts.rs` is kept in place but left unused. The linux‑sandbox README
is updated to match the new behavior and manual test expectations.
Fixes#8733.
- Read prompt from stdin as raw bytes and decode more helpfully.
- Strip UTF-8 BOM; decode UTF-16LE/UTF-16BE when a BOM is present.
- For other non-UTF8 input, fail with an actionable message (offset +
iconv hint).
Tests: `cargo test -p codex-exec`.
This PR changes `codex resume --last` to work consistently with `codex
resume`. Namely, it filters based on the cwd when selecting the last
session. It also supports the `--all` modifier as an override.
This addresses #8700
fixes https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/9236
### Motivation
- Prevent sandbox setup from failing when unprivileged user namespaces
are denied so Landlock-only protections can still be applied.
- Ensure `PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS` is set before installing seccomp and
Landlock restrictions to avoid kernel `EPERM`/`LandlockRestrict`
ordering issues.
### Description
- Add `is_permission_denied` helper that detects `EPERM` /
`PermissionDenied` from `CodexErr` to drive fallback logic.
- In `apply_read_only_mounts` skip read-only bind-mount setup and return
`Ok(())` when `unshare_user_and_mount_namespaces()` fails with
permission-denied so Landlock rules can still be installed.
- Add `set_no_new_privs()` and call it from
`apply_sandbox_policy_to_current_thread` before installing seccomp
filters and Landlock rules when disk or network access is restricted.
Next step would be to clean Model Upgrade in model presets

### What
Add `WebSearchMode` enum (disabled, cached live, defaults to cached) to
config + V2 protocol. This enum takes precedence over legacy flags:
`web_search_cached`, `web_search_request`, and `tools.web_search`.
Keep `--search` as live.
### Tests
Added tests
Disables the default Ctrl+C/Ctrl+D double-press quit UX (keeps the code
path behind a const) while we rethink the quit/interrupt flow.
Tests:
- just fmt
- cargo clippy --fix --all-features --tests --allow-dirty --allow-no-vcs
-p codex-tui
- cargo test -p codex-tui --lib
- Remove legacy Ctrl+K queuing in tui2; Tab is the queue key.
- Make Enter queue when Steer is disabled and submit immediately when
Steer is enabled.
- Add Steer keybinding docs on both tui and tui2 chat composers.
A simple `s/mcp_server_requirements/mcp_servers/g` for an unreleased
feature. @bolinfest correctly pointed out, it's already in
`requirements.toml` so the `_requirements` is redundant.
- Don't try to precompute model unless you know it from `config`
- Block `/model` on session configured
- Queue messages until session configured
- show "loading" in status until session configured
Adding a prompt for collab tools. This is only for internal use and the
prompt won't be gated for now as it is not stable yet.

prompt

this will be under `item/started` and `item/completed`

## Problem
Codex’s TUI quit behavior has historically been easy to trigger
accidentally and hard to reason
about.
- `Ctrl+C`/`Ctrl+D` could terminate the UI immediately, which is a
common key to press while trying
to dismiss a modal, cancel a command, or recover from a stuck state.
- “Quit” and “shutdown” were not consistently separated, so some exit
paths could bypass the
shutdown/cleanup work that should run before the process terminates.
This PR makes quitting both safer (harder to do by accident) and more
uniform across quit
gestures, while keeping the shutdown-first semantics explicit.
## Mental model
After this change, the system treats quitting as a UI request that is
coordinated by the app
layer.
- The UI requests exit via `AppEvent::Exit(ExitMode)`.
- `ExitMode::ShutdownFirst` is the normal user path: the app triggers
`Op::Shutdown`, continues
rendering while shutdown runs, and only ends the UI loop once shutdown
has completed.
- `ExitMode::Immediate` exists as an escape hatch (and as the
post-shutdown “now actually exit”
signal); it bypasses cleanup and should not be the default for
user-triggered quits.
User-facing quit gestures are intentionally “two-step” for safety:
- `Ctrl+C` and `Ctrl+D` no longer exit immediately.
- The first press arms a 1-second window and shows a footer hint (“ctrl
+ <key> again to quit”).
- Pressing the same key again within the window requests a
shutdown-first quit; otherwise the
hint expires and the next press starts a fresh window.
Key routing remains modal-first:
- A modal/popup gets first chance to consume `Ctrl+C`.
- If a modal handles `Ctrl+C`, any armed quit shortcut is cleared so
dismissing a modal cannot
prime a subsequent `Ctrl+C` to quit.
- `Ctrl+D` only participates in quitting when the composer is empty and
no modal/popup is active.
The design doc `docs/exit-confirmation-prompt-design.md` captures the
intended routing and the
invariants the UI should maintain.
## Non-goals
- This does not attempt to redesign modal UX or make modals uniformly
dismissible via `Ctrl+C`.
It only ensures modals get priority and that quit arming does not leak
across modal handling.
- This does not introduce a persistent confirmation prompt/menu for
quitting; the goal is to keep
the exit gesture lightweight and consistent.
- This does not change the semantics of core shutdown itself; it changes
how the UI requests and
sequences it.
## Tradeoffs
- Quitting via `Ctrl+C`/`Ctrl+D` now requires a deliberate second
keypress, which adds friction for
users who relied on the old “instant quit” behavior.
- The UI now maintains a small time-bounded state machine for the armed
shortcut, which increases
complexity and introduces timing-dependent behavior.
This design was chosen over alternatives (a modal confirmation prompt or
a long-lived “are you
sure” state) because it provides an explicit safety barrier while
keeping the flow fast and
keyboard-native.
## Architecture
- `ChatWidget` owns the quit-shortcut state machine and decides when a
quit gesture is allowed
(idle vs cancellable work, composer state, etc.).
- `BottomPane` owns rendering and local input routing for modals/popups.
It is responsible for
consuming cancellation keys when a view is active and for
showing/expiring the footer hint.
- `App` owns shutdown sequencing: translating
`AppEvent::Exit(ShutdownFirst)` into `Op::Shutdown`
and only terminating the UI loop when exit is safe.
This keeps “what should happen” decisions (quit vs interrupt vs ignore)
in the chat/widget layer,
while keeping “how it looks and which view gets the key” in the
bottom-pane layer.
## Observability
You can tell this is working by running the TUIs and exercising the quit
gestures:
- While idle: pressing `Ctrl+C` (or `Ctrl+D` with an empty composer and
no modal) shows a footer
hint for ~1 second; pressing again within that window exits via
shutdown-first.
- While streaming/tools/review are active: `Ctrl+C` interrupts work
rather than quitting.
- With a modal/popup open: `Ctrl+C` dismisses/handles the modal (if it
chooses to) and does not
arm a quit shortcut; a subsequent quick `Ctrl+C` should not quit unless
the user re-arms it.
Failure modes are visible as:
- Quits that happen immediately (no hint window) from `Ctrl+C`/`Ctrl+D`.
- Quits that occur while a modal is open and consuming `Ctrl+C`.
- UI termination before shutdown completes (cleanup skipped).
## Tests
- Updated/added unit and snapshot coverage in `codex-tui` and
`codex-tui2` to validate:
- The quit hint appears and expires on the expected key.
- Double-press within the window triggers a shutdown-first quit request.
- Modal-first routing prevents quit bypass and clears any armed shortcut
when a modal consumes
`Ctrl+C`.
These tests focus on the UI-level invariants and rendered output; they
do not attempt to validate
real terminal key-repeat timing or end-to-end process shutdown behavior.

### Motivation
- Landlock alone cannot prevent writes to sensitive in-repo files like
`.git/` when the repo root is writable, so explicit mount restrictions
are required for those paths.
- The sandbox must set up any mounts before calling Landlock so Landlock
can still be applied afterwards and the two mechanisms compose
correctly.
### Description
- Add a new `linux-sandbox` helper `apply_read_only_mounts` in
`linux-sandbox/src/mounts.rs` that: unshares namespaces, maps uids/gids
when required, makes mounts private, bind-mounts targets, and remounts
them read-only.
- Wire the mount step into the sandbox flow by calling
`apply_read_only_mounts(...)` before network/seccomp and before applying
Landlock rules in `linux-sandbox/src/landlock.rs`.
This PR is in the scope of multi-agent work.
An agent (=thread) can now spawn other agents. Those other agents are
not attached to any clients. We need a way to make sure that the clients
are aware of the new threads to look at (for approval for example). This
PR adds a channel to the `ThreadManager` that pushes the ID of those
newly created agents such that the client (here the app-server) can also
subscribe to those ones.
## Before
When we detect an `InvalidImageRequest`, we replace the image by a
placeholder and keep going
## Now
In such `InvalidImageRequest`, we check if the image is due to a user
message or a tool call output. For tool call output we still replace it
with a placeholder to avoid breaking the agentic loop bu tif this is
because of a user message, we send an error to the user
Clean all shell snapshot files corresponding to sessions that have not
been updated in 7 days
Those files should never leak. The only known cases were it can leak are
during non graceful interrupt of the process (`kill -9, `panic`, OS
crash, ...)
The description of the `shell` arg for `exec_command` states the default
is `/bin/bash`, but AFAICT it's the user's default shell.
Default logic
[here](2a06d64bc9/codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers/unified_exec.rs (L123)).
EDIT: #9004 has an alternative where we inform the model of the default
shell itself.
When an invalid config.toml key or value is detected, the CLI currently
just quits. This leaves the VSCE in a dead state.
This PR changes the behavior to not quit and bubble up the config error
to users to make it actionable. It also surfaces errors related to
"rules" parsing.
This allows us to surface these errors to users in the VSCE, like this:

/>
User-facing symptom: On terminals that deliver pastes as rapid
KeyCode::Char/Enter streams (notably Windows), paste-burst transient
state
can leak into the next input. Users can see Enter insert a newline when
they meant to submit, or see characters appear late / handled through
the
wrong path.
System problem: PasteBurst is time-based. Clearing only the
classification window (e.g. via clear_window_after_non_char()) can erase
last_plain_char_time without emitting buffered text. If a buffer is
still
non-empty after that, flush_if_due() no longer has a timeout clock to
flush against, so the buffer can get "stuck" until another plain char
arrives.
This was surfaced while adding deterministic regression tests for
paste-burst behavior.
Fix: when disabling burst detection, defuse any in-flight burst state:
flush held/buffered text through handle_paste() (so it follows normal
paste integration), then clear timing and Enter suppression.
Document the rationale inline and update docs/tui-chat-composer.md so
"disable_paste_burst" matches the actual behavior.
**make command summaries more accurate by distinguishing
list/search/read operations across common CLI tools.**
- Added parsing helpers to centralize operand/flag handling (cd_target,
sed_read_path, first_non_flag_operand, single_non_flag_operand,
parse_grep_like, awk_data_file_operand, python_walks_files,
is_python_command) and reused them in summarize_main_tokens/shell
parsing.
- Newly parsed list-files commands: git ls-files, rg --files (incl.
rga/ripgrep-all), eza/exa, tree, du, python -c file-walks, plus fd/find
map to ListFiles when no query.
- Newly parsed search commands: git grep, grep/egrep/fgrep, ag/ack/pt,
rg/rga files-with-matches flags (-l/-L, --files-with-matches,
--files-without-match), with improved flag skipping to avoid
misclassifying args as paths.
- Newly parsed read commands: bat/batcat, less, more, awk <file>, and
more flexible sed -n range + file detection.
- refine “small formatting command” detection for awk/sed, handle cd
with -- or multiple operands, keep pipeline summaries focused on primary
command.

This is less straightforward than I realized, so created an entry for
this in our `justfile`.
Verified that running `just bazel-codex` from anywhere in the repo uses
the user's `$PWD` as the one to run Codex.
While here, updated the `MODULE.bazel.lock`, though it looks like I need
to add a CI job that runs `bazel mod deps --lockfile_mode=error` or
something.
Adds an integration test for the new behavior introduced in
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9011. The work to create the test
setup was substantial enough that I thought it merited a separate PR.
This integration test spawns `codex` in TUI mode, which requires
spawning a PTY to run successfully, so I had to introduce quite a bit of
scaffolding in `run_codex_cli()`. I was surprised to discover that we
have not done this in our codebase before, so perhaps this should get
moved to a common location so it can be reused.
The test itself verifies that a malformed `rules` in `$CODEX_HOME`
prints a human-readable error message and exits nonzero.
The underlying issue is that when we encountered an error starting a
conversation (any sort of error, though making `$CODEX_HOME/rules` a
file rather than folder was the example in #8803), then we were writing
the message to stderr, but this could be printed over by our UI
framework so the user would not see it. In general, we disallow the use
of `eprintln!()` in this part of the code for exactly this reason,
though this was suppressed by an `#[allow(clippy::print_stderr)]`.
This attempts to clean things up by changing `handle_event()` and
`handle_tui_event()` to return a `Result<AppRunControl>` instead of a
`Result<bool>`, which is a new type introduced in this PR (and depends
on `ExitReason`, also a new type):
```rust
#[derive(Debug)]
pub(crate) enum AppRunControl {
Continue,
Exit(ExitReason),
}
#[derive(Debug, Clone)]
pub enum ExitReason {
UserRequested,
Fatal(String),
}
```
This makes it possible to exit the primary control flow of the TUI with
richer information. This PR adds `ExitReason` to the existing
`AppExitInfo` struct and updates `handle_app_exit()` to print the error
and exit code `1` in the event of `ExitReason::Fatal`.
I tried to create an integration test for this, but it was a bit
involved, so I published it as a separate PR:
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9166. For this PR, please have
faith in my manual testing!

## **Problem**
Codex’s TUI uses a single “task running” indicator (spinner + Esc interrupt hint)
to communicate “the UI is busy”. In practice, “busy” can mean two different
things: an agent turn is running, or MCP servers are still starting up. Without a
clear contract, those lifecycles can interfere: startup completion can clear the
spinner while a turn is still in progress, or the UI can appear idle while MCP is
still booting. This is user-visible confusion during the most important moments
(startup and the first turn), so it was worth making the contract explicit and
guarding it.
## **Mental model**
`ChatWidget` is the UI-side adapter for the `codex_core::protocol` event stream.
It receives `EventMsg` events and updates two major UI surfaces: the transcript
(history/streaming cells) and the bottom pane (composer + status indicator).
The key concept after this change is that the bottom pane’s “task running”
indicator is treated as **derived UI-busy state**, not “agent is running”. It is
considered active while either:
- an agent turn is in progress (`TurnStarted` → completion/abort), or
- MCP startup is in progress (`McpStartupUpdate` → `McpStartupComplete`).
Those lifecycles are tracked independently, and the bottom-pane indicator is
defined as their union.
## **Non-goals**
- This does not introduce separate UI indicators for “turn busy” vs “MCP busy”.
- This does not change MCP startup behavior, ordering guarantees, or core
protocol semantics.
- This does not rework unrelated status/header rendering or transcript layout.
## **Tradeoffs**
- The “one flag represents multiple lifecycles” approach remains lossy: it
preserves correct “busy vs idle” semantics but cannot express *which* kind of
busy is happening without further UI changes.
- The design keeps complexity low by keeping a single derived boolean, rather
than adding a more expressive bottom-pane state machine. That’s chosen because
it matches existing UX and minimizes churn while fixing the confusion.
## **Architecture**
- `codex-core` owns the actual lifecycles and emits `codex_core::protocol`
events.
- `ChatWidget` owns the UI interpretation of those lifecycles. It is responsible
for keeping the bottom pane’s derived “busy” state consistent with the event
stream, and for updating the status header when MCP progress updates arrive.
- The bottom pane remains a dumb renderer of the single “task running” flag; it
does not learn about MCP or agent turns directly.
## **Observability**
- When working: the spinner/Esc hint stays visible during MCP startup and does
not disappear mid-turn when `McpStartupComplete` arrives; startup status
headers can update without clearing “busy” for an active turn.
- When broken: you’ll see the spinner/hint flicker off while output is still
streaming, or the UI appears idle while MCP startup status is still changing.
## **Tests**
- Adds/strengthens a regression test that asserts MCP startup completion does
not clear the “task running” indicator for an active turn (in both `tui` and
`tui2` variants).
- These tests prove the **contract** (“busy is the union of turn + startup”) at
the UI boundary; they do not attempt to validate MCP startup ordering,
real-world startup timing, or backend integration behavior.

Replace the old timing-dependent non-ASCII paste test with deterministic

Add focused unit tests for `PasteBurst` transitions, and add short
"Behavior:" rustdoc notes on chat composer tests to make the state
machine contracts explicit.
## Summary
Bumps the windows setup version, to re-trigger windows sandbox setup for
users in the experimental sandbox. We've seen some drift in the ACL
controls, amongst a few other changes. Hopefully this should fix#9062.
## Testing
- [x] Tested locally
Add a new `codex app-server --analytics-default-enabled` CLI flag that
controls whether analytics are enabled by default.
Analytics are disabled by default for app-server. Users have to
explicitly opt in
via the `analytics` section in the config.toml file.
However, for first-party use cases like the VSCode IDE extension, we
default analytics
to be enabled by default by setting this flag. Users can still opt out
by setting this
in their config.toml:
```toml
[analytics]
enabled = false
```
See https://developers.openai.com/codex/config-advanced/#metrics for
more details.
Add a narrative doc and inline rustdoc explaining how `ChatComposer`
and `PasteBurst` compose into a single state machine on terminals that
lack reliable bracketed paste (notably Windows).
This documents the key states, invariants, and integration points
(`handle_input_basic`, `handle_non_ascii_char`, tick-driven flush) so
future changes are easier to reason about.
Enterprises want to restrict the MCP servers their users can use.
Admins can now specify an allowlist of MCPs in `requirements.toml`. The
MCP servers are matched on both Name and Transport (local path or HTTP
URL) -- both must match to allow the MCP server. This prevents
circumventing the allowlist by renaming MCP servers in user config. (It
is still possible to replace the local path e.g. rewrite say
`/usr/local/github-mcp` with a nefarious MCP. We could allow hash
pinning in the future, but that would break updates. I also think this
represents a broader, out-of-scope problem.)
We introduce a new field to Constrained: "normalizer". In general, it is
a fn(T) -> T and applies when `Constrained<T>.set()` is called. In this
particular case, it disables MCP servers which do not match the
allowlist. An alternative solution would remove this and instead throw a
ConstraintError. That would stop Codex launching if any MCP server was
configured which didn't match. I think this is bad.
We currently reuse the enabled flag on MCP servers to disable them, but
don't propagate any information about why they are disabled. I'd like to
add that in a follow up PR, possibly by switching out enabled with an
enum.

Sending a message during /review interrupts the review, whereas during
normal operation, sending a message while the agent is running will
queue the message. This is unexpected behavior, and since /review
usually takes a while, it takes away a potentially useful operation.
Summary
- Treat review mode as an active task for message queuing so inputs
don’t inject into the running review turn.
- Prevents user submissions from rendering immediately in the transcript
while the review continues streaming.
- Keeps review UX consistent with normal “task running” behavior and
avoids accidental interrupt/replacement.
Notes
- This change only affects UI queuing logic; core review flow and task
lifecycle remain unchanged.
### What
Add JSON Schema generation for `config.toml`, with checked‑in
`docs/config.schema.json`. We can move the schema elsewhere if preferred
(and host it if there's demand).
Add fixture test to prevent drift and `just write-config-schema` to
regenerate on schema changes.
Generate MCP config schema from `RawMcpServerConfig` instead of
`McpServerConfig` because that is the runtime type used for
deserialization.
Populate feature flag values into generated schema so they can be
autocompleted.
### Tests
Added tests + regenerate script to prevent drift. Tested autocompletions
using generated jsonschema locally with Even Better TOML.

This is an alternate PR to solving the same problem as
<https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/8227>.
In this PR, when Ollama is used via `--oss` (or via `model_provider =
"ollama"`), we default it to use the Responses format. At runtime, we do
an Ollama version check, and if the version is older than when Responses
support was added to Ollama, we print out a warning.
Because there's no way of configuring the wire api for a built-in
provider, we temporarily add a new `oss_provider`/`model_provider`
called `"ollama-chat"` that will force the chat format.
Once the `"chat"` format is fully removed (see
<https://github.com/openai/codex/discussions/7782>), `ollama-chat` can
be removed as well

Handle image paste on empty paste events.
- Intent: make image paste work in terminals that emit empty paste
events.
- Approach: route paste events through an image-aware handler and read
the clipboard when text is empty.
- That's best effort to detect it. Some terminals don't send the empty
signal.
### Problem
Ctrl+T transcript overlay can omit in-flight coalesced tool calls because it
renders only committed transcript cells while the main viewport can render the
current in-flight ChatWidget.active_cell immediately.
### Mental model
The UI has both committed transcript cells (finalized HistoryCell entries) and
an in-flight active cell that can mutate in place while streaming, often
representing a coalesced exec/tool group. The transcript overlay renders
committed cells plus a render-only live tail derived from the current active
cell. The live tail is cached and only recomputed when its cache key changes,
which is derived from terminal width (wrapping), active-cell revision
(in-place mutations), stream continuation (spacing), and animation tick
(time-based visuals).
### Non-goals
This does not change coalescing rules, flush boundaries, or when active cells
become committed. It does not change tool-call semantics or transcript
persistence; it is a rendering-only improvement for the overlay.
### Tradeoffs
This adds cache invalidation complexity: correctness depends on bumping an
active-cell revision (and/or providing an animation tick) when the active cell
mutates in place. The mechanism is implemented in both codex-tui and codex-tui2,
which keeps behavior consistent but risks drift if future changes are not
applied in lockstep.
### Architecture
App special-cases transcript overlay draws to sync a live tail from ChatWidget
into TranscriptOverlay. TranscriptOverlay remains the owner of committed
transcript cells; the live tail is an optional appended renderable.
HistoryCell::transcript_animation_tick() allows time-dependent transcript output
(spinner/shimmer) to invalidate the cached tail without requiring data mutation.
### Observability
Manual verification is to open Ctrl+T while an exploring/coalesced active cell
is still in-flight and confirm the overlay includes the same in-flight tool-call
group the main viewport shows. The overlay is kept in sync by App passing an
active-cell key and transcript lines into TranscriptOverlay::sync_live_tail; the
key must change when the active cell mutates or animates.
### Tests
Snapshot tests validate that the transcript overlay renders a live tail appended
after committed cells and that identical keys short-circuit recomputation. Unit
tests validate that active-cell revision bumps occur on specific in-place
mutations (e.g. unified exec wait cell command display becoming known late) so
cached tails are invalidated.

- codex-rs/tui/src/app_backtrack.rs (overlay_forward_event)
- codex-rs/tui/src/chatwidget.rs (active_cell_transcript_key, active_cell_transcript_lines)
- codex-rs/tui/src/pager_overlay.rs (sync_live_tail, take_live_tail_renderable)
- codex-rs/tui/src/history_cell.rs (transcript_animation_tick, UnifiedExecWaitCell::update_command_display)
- Mirrored in codex-rs/tui2 equivalents where present
### Validation performed
- cd codex-rs && just fmt
- cd codex-rs && cargo test -p codex-tui
- cd codex-rs && cargo test -p codex-tui2
## Design inconsistencies / risks
- Cache invalidation is a distributed responsibility: any future in-place active
cell transcript mutation that forgets to bump active_cell_revision (or expose
an animation tick) can leave the transcript overlay live tail out of sync with
the main viewport.
- TranscriptOverlay tail handling assumes a structural invariant that the live
tail, when present, is exactly one trailing renderable after the committed cell
renderables; if renderable construction changes in a way that violates that
assumption, tail insertion/removal logic becomes incorrect.
- codex-tui and codex-tui2 duplicate the live-tail mechanism; the documentation
is aligned, but the implementation can still drift unless changes continue to
be applied in lockstep.
- Add a single builder for developer permissions messaging that accepts
SandboxPolicy and approval policy. This builder now drives the developer
“permissions” message that’s injected at session start and any time
sandbox/approval settings change.
- Trim EnvironmentContext to only include cwd, writable roots, and
shell; removed sandbox/approval/network duplication and adjusted XML
serialization and tests accordingly.
Follow-up: adding a config value to replace the developer permissions
message for custom sandboxes.
### Summary
* Added `mcpServer/refresh` command to inform app servers and active
threads to refresh mcpServer on next turn event.
* Added `pending_mcp_server_refresh_config` to codex core so that if the
value is populated, we reinitialize the mcp server manager on the thread
level.
* The config is updated on `mcpServer/refresh` command which we iterate
through threads and provide with the latest config value after last
write.

Bumps [ts-rs](https://github.com/Aleph-Alpha/ts-rs) from 11.0.1 to
11.1.0.
<details>
<summary>Release notes</summary>
<p><em>Sourced from <a
href="https://github.com/Aleph-Alpha/ts-rs/releases">ts-rs's
releases</a>.</em></p>
<blockquote>
<h2>v11.1.0</h2>
<p>Today, we're happy to publish a small follow-up to v11.0.1!</p>
<p>This release fixes a nasty build failure when using the
<code>format</code> feature.
<strong>Note:</strong> For those that use the <code>format</code>
feature, this release bumps the MSRV to 1.88. We'd have preferred to do
this in a major release, but felt this was acceptable since the build
was broken by one of the dependencies anyway.</p>
<h1>New features</h1>
<h2>TypeScript enums with <code>#[ts(repr(enum))</code></h2>
<p><code>#[ts(repr(enum))</code> instructs ts-rs to generate an
<code>enum</code>, instead of a <code>type</code> for your rust
enum.</p>
<pre lang="rust"><code>#[derive(TS)]
#[ts(repr(enum))]
enum Role {
User,
Admin,
}
// will generate `export enum Role { "User", "Admin"
}`
</code></pre>
<p>Discriminants are preserved, and you can use the variant's name as
discriminant instead using <code>#[ts(repr(enum = name))]</code></p>
<h2><code>#[ts(optional_fields)]</code> in enums</h2>
<p>The <code>#[ts(optional_fields)]</code> attribute can now be applied
directly to enums, or even to individual enum variants.</p>
<h2>Control over file extensions in imports</h2>
<p>Normally, we generate <code>import { Type } from
"file"</code> statements. In some scenarios though, it might
be necessary to use a <code>.ts</code> or even <code>.js</code>
extension instead.<br />
This is now possible by setting the <code>TS_RS_IMPORT_EXTENSION</code>
environment variable.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Note: With the introduction of this feature, we deprecate the
<code>import-esm</code> cargo feature. It will be removed in a future
major release.</p>
</blockquote>

Currently the callback URI for MCP authentication is dynamically
generated. More specifically, the callback URI is dynamic because the
port part of it is randomly chosen by the OS. This is not ideal as
callback URIs are recommended to be static and many authorization
servers do not support dynamic callback URIs.
This PR fixes that issue by exposing a new config option named
`mcp_oauth_callback_port`. When it is set, the callback URI is
constructed using this port rather than a random one chosen by the OS,
thereby making callback URI static.

Add implementation for the `wait` tool.
For this we consider all status different from `PendingInit` and
`Running` as terminal. The `wait` tool call will return either after a
given timeout or when the tool reaches a non-terminal status.
A few points to note:
* The usage of a channel is preferred to prevent some races (just
looping on `get_status()` could "miss" a terminal status)
* The order of operations is very important, we need to first subscribe
and then check the last known status to prevent race conditions
* If the channel gets dropped, we return an error on purpose

In this PR, we wrap image content items in XML tags with the name of
each image (now just a numbered name like `[Image #1]`), so that the
model can understand inline image references (based on name). We also
put the image content items above the user message which the model seems
to prefer (maybe it's more used to definitions being before references).
We also tweak the view_file tool description which seemed to help a bit

As explained in `codex-rs/core/BUILD.bazel`, including the repo's own
`AGENTS.md` is a hack to get some tests passing. We should fix this
properly, but I wanted to put stake in the ground ASAP to get `just
bazel-remote-test` working and then add a job to `bazel.yml` to ensure
it keeps working.
As noted in the comment, this was causing a problem for me locally
because Sapling backed up some files under `.git/sl` named `BUILD.bazel`
and so Bazel tried to parse them.
It's a bit surprising that Bazel does not ignore `.git` out of the box
such that you have to opt-in to considering it rather than opting-out.
Add model provider info to /status if non-default
Enterprises are running Codex and migrating between proxied / API key
auth and SIWC. If you accidentally run Codex with `OPENAI_BASE_URL=...`,
which is surprisingly easy to do, we don't tend to surface this anywhere
and it may lead to breakage. One suggestion was to include this
information in `/status`:
<img width="477" height="157" alt="Screenshot 2026-01-09 at 15 45 34"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/630ce68f-c856-4a2b-a004-7df2fbe5de93"
/>
### Motivation
- Avoid placing PATH entries under the system temp directory by creating
the helper directory under `CODEX_HOME` instead of
`std::env::temp_dir()`.
- Fail fast on unsafe configuration by rejecting `CODEX_HOME` values
that live under the system temp root to prevent writable PATH entries.
### Testing
- Ran `just fmt`, which completed with a non-blocking
`imports_granularity` warning.
- Ran `just fix -p codex-arg0` (Clippy fixes) which completed
successfully.
- Ran `cargo test -p codex-arg0` and the test run completed
successfully.
This PR configures Codex CLI so it can be built with
[Bazel](https://bazel.build) in addition to Cargo. The `.bazelrc`
includes configuration so that remote builds can be done using
[BuildBuddy](https://www.buildbuddy.io).
If you are familiar with Bazel, things should work as you expect, e.g.,
run `bazel test //... --keep-going` to run all the tests in the repo,
but we have also added some new aliases in the `justfile` for
convenience:
- `just bazel-test` to run tests locally
- `just bazel-remote-test` to run tests remotely (currently, the remote
build is for x86_64 Linux regardless of your host platform). Note we are
currently seeing the following test failures in the remote build, so we
still need to figure out what is happening here:
```
failures:
suite::compact::manual_compact_twice_preserves_latest_user_messages
suite::compact_resume_fork::compact_resume_after_second_compaction_preserves_history
suite::compact_resume_fork::compact_resume_and_fork_preserve_model_history_view
```
- `just build-for-release` to build release binaries for all
platforms/architectures remotely
To setup remote execution:
- [Create a buildbuddy account](https://app.buildbuddy.io/) (OpenAI
employees should also request org access at
https://openai.buildbuddy.io/join/ with their `@openai.com` email
address.)
- [Copy your API key](https://app.buildbuddy.io/docs/setup/) to
`~/.bazelrc` (add the line `build
--remote_header=x-buildbuddy-api-key=YOUR_KEY`)
- Use `--config=remote` in your `bazel` invocations (or add `common
--config=remote` to your `~/.bazelrc`, or use the `just` commands)
## CI
In terms of CI, this PR introduces `.github/workflows/bazel.yml`, which
uses Bazel to run the tests _locally_ on Mac and Linux GitHub runners
(we are working on supporting Windows, but that is not ready yet). Note
that the failures we are seeing in `just bazel-remote-test` do not occur
on these GitHub CI jobs, so everything in `.github/workflows/bazel.yml`
is green right now.
The `bazel.yml` uses extra config in `.github/workflows/ci.bazelrc` so
that macOS CI jobs build _remotely_ on Linux hosts (using the
`docker://docker.io/mbolin491/codex-bazel` Docker image declared in the
root `BUILD.bazel`) using cross-compilation to build the macOS
artifacts. Then these artifacts are downloaded locally to GitHub's macOS
runner so the tests can be executed natively. This is the relevant
config that enables this:
```
common:macos --config=remote
common:macos --strategy=remote
common:macos --strategy=TestRunner=darwin-sandbox,local
```
Because of the remote caching benefits we get from BuildBuddy, these new
CI jobs can be extremely fast! For example, consider these two jobs that
ran all the tests on Linux x86_64:
- Bazel 1m37s
https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/20861063212/job/59940545209?pr=8875
- Cargo 9m20s
https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/20861063192/job/59940559592?pr=8875
For now, we will continue to run both the Bazel and Cargo jobs for PRs,
but once we add support for Windows and running Clippy, we should be
able to cutover to using Bazel exclusively for PRs, which should still
speed things up considerably. We will probably continue to run the Cargo
jobs post-merge for commits that land on `main` as a sanity check.
Release builds will also continue to be done by Cargo for now.

Fixes#2558
Codex uses alternate screen mode (CSI 1049) which, per xterm spec,
doesn't support scrollback. Zellij follows this strictly, so users can't
scroll back through output.
**Changes:**
- Add `tui.alternate_screen` config: `auto` (default), `always`, `never`
- Add `--no-alt-screen` CLI flag
- Auto-detect Zellij and skip alt screen (uses existing `ZELLIJ` env var
detection)
**Usage:**
```bash
# CLI flag
codex --no-alt-screen
# Or in config.toml
[tui]
alternate_screen = "never"
```
With default `auto` mode, Zellij users get working scrollback without
any config changes.

Some enterprises do not want their users to be able to `/feedback`.
<img width="395" height="325" alt="image"

Adds to `config.toml`:
```toml
[feedback]
enabled = false
```
I've deliberately decided to:
1. leave other references to `/feedback` (e.g. in the interrupt message,
tips of the day) unchanged. I think we should continue to promote the
feature even if it is not usable currently.
2. leave the `/feedback` menu item selectable and display an error
saying it's disabled, rather than remove the menu item (which I believe
would raise more questions).
but happy to discuss these.
This will be followed by a change to requirements.toml that admins can
use to force the value of feedback.enabled.
**Motivation**
The `originator` header is important for codex-backend’s Responses API
proxy because it identifies the real end client (codex cli, codex vscode
extension, codex exec, future IDEs) and is used to categorize requests
by client for our enterprise compliance API.
Today the `originator` header is set by either:
- the `CODEX_INTERNAL_ORIGINATOR_OVERRIDE` env var (our VSCode extension
does this)
- calling `set_default_originator()` which sets a global immutable
singleton (`codex exec` does this)
For `codex app-server`, we want the `initialize` JSON-RPC request to set
that header because it is a natural place to do so. Example:
```json
{
"method": "initialize",
"id": 0,
"params": {
"clientInfo": {
"name": "codex_vscode",
"title": "Codex VS Code Extension",
"version": "0.1.0"
}
}
}
```
and when app-server receives that request, it can call
`set_default_originator()`. This is a much more natural interface than
asking third party developers to set an env var.
One hiccup is that `originator()` reads the global singleton and locks
in the value, preventing a later `set_default_originator()` call from
setting it. This would be fine but is brittle, since any codepath that
calls `originator()` before app-server can process an `initialize`
JSON-RPC call would prevent app-server from setting it. This was
actually the case with OTEL initialization which runs on boot, but I
also saw this behavior in certain tests.
Instead, what we now do is:
- [unchanged] If `CODEX_INTERNAL_ORIGINATOR_OVERRIDE` env var is set,
`originator()` would return that value and `set_default_originator()`
with some other value does NOT override it.
- [new] If no env var is set, `originator()` would return the default
value which is `codex_cli_rs` UNTIL `set_default_originator()` is called
once, in which case it is set to the new value and becomes immutable.
Later calls to `set_default_originator()` returns
`SetOriginatorError::AlreadyInitialized`.
**Other notes**
- I updated `codex_core::otel_init::build_provider` to accepts a service
name override, and app-server sends a hardcoded `codex_app_server`
service name to distinguish it from `codex_cli_rs` used by default (e.g.
TUI).
**Next steps**
- Update VSCE to set the proper value for `clientInfo.name` on
`initialize` and drop the `CODEX_INTERNAL_ORIGINATOR_OVERRIDE` env var.
- Delete support for `CODEX_INTERNAL_ORIGINATOR_OVERRIDE` in codex-rs.
This is a proposed fix for #8912
Information provided by Codex:
no_proxy means “don’t use any system proxy settings for this client,”
even if macOS has proxies configured in System Settings or via
environment. On macOS, reqwest’s proxy discovery can call into the
system-configuration framework; that’s the code path that was panicking
with “Attempted to create a NULL object.” By forcing a direct connection
for the OAuth discovery request, we avoid that proxy-resolution path
entirely, so the system-configuration crate never gets invoked and the
panic disappears.
Effectively:
With proxies: reqwest asks the OS for proxy config →
system-configuration gets touched → panic.
With no_proxy: reqwest skips proxy lookup → no system-configuration call
→ no panic.
So the fix doesn’t change any MCP protocol behavior; it just prevents
the OAuth discovery probe from touching the macOS proxy APIs that are
crashing in the reported environment.
This fix changes behavior for the OAuth discovery probe used in codex
mcp list/auth status detection. With no_proxy, that probe won’t use
system or env proxy settings, so:
If a server is only reachable via a proxy, the discovery call may fail
and we’ll show auth as Unsupported/NotLoggedIn incorrectly.
If the server is reachable directly (common case), behavior is
unchanged.
As an alternative, we could try to get a fix into the
[system-configuration](https://github.com/mullvad/system-configuration-rs)
library. It looks like this library is still under development but has
slow release pace.

Invoke an app by inserting `$<app-slug>` in the text input. The slug is derived from the app name and lowercased with non-alphanumeric characters replaced by `-` (for example, "Demo App" becomes `$demo-app`). Add a `mention` input item (recommended) so the server uses the exact `app://<connector-id>` path rather than guessing by name.
Example:
```
$demo-app Pull the latest updates from the team.
```

The JSON-RPC auth/account surface exposes request/response methods plus server-initiated notifications (no `id`). Use these to determine auth state, start or cancel logins, logout, and inspect ChatGPT rate limits.
### Authentication modes
Codex supports these authentication modes. The current mode is surfaced in `account/updated` (`authMode`) and can be inferred from `account/read`.
- **API key (`apiKey`)**: Caller supplies an OpenAI API key via `account/login/start` with `type: "apiKey"`. The API key is saved and used for API requests.
- **ChatGPT managed (`chatgpt`)** (recommended): Codex owns the ChatGPT OAuth flow and refresh tokens. Start via `account/login/start` with `type: "chatgpt"`; Codex persists tokens to disk and refreshes them automatically.
### API Overview
-`account/read` — fetch current account info; optionally refresh tokens.
-`account/login/start` — begin login (`apiKey` or`chatgpt`).
-`account/login/start` — begin login (`apiKey`,`chatgpt`).
-`account/login/completed` (notify) — emitted when a login attempt finishes (success or error).
-`account/login/cancel` — cancel a pending ChatGPT login by `loginId`.
