## Why `--profile-v2 <name>` gives launchers and runtime entry points a named profile config without making each profile duplicate the base user config. The base `$CODEX_HOME/config.toml` still loads first, then `$CODEX_HOME/<name>.config.toml` layers above it and becomes the active writable user config for that session. That keeps shared defaults, plugin/MCP setup, and managed/user constraints in one place while letting a named profile override only the pieces that need to differ. ## What Changed - Added the shared `--profile-v2 <name>` runtime option with validated plain names, now represented by `ProfileV2Name`. - Extended config layer state so the base user config and selected profile config are both `User` layers; APIs expose the active user layer and merged effective user config. - Threaded profile selection through runtime entry points: `codex`, `codex exec`, `codex review`, `codex resume`, `codex fork`, and `codex debug prompt-input`. - Made user-facing config writes go to the selected profile file when active, including TUI/settings persistence, app-server config writes, and MCP/app tool approval persistence. - Made plugin, marketplace, MCP, hooks, and config reload paths read from the merged user config so base and profile layers both participate. - Updated app-server config layer schemas to mark profile-backed user layers. ## Limits `--profile-v2` is still rejected for config-management subcommands such as feature, MCP, and marketplace edits. Those paths remain tied to the base `config.toml` until they have explicit profile-selection semantics. Some adjacent background writes may still update base or global state rather than the selected profile: - marketplace auto-upgrade metadata - automatic MCP dependency installs from skills - remote plugin sync or uninstall config edits - personality migration marker/default writes ## Verification Added targeted coverage for profile name validation, layer ordering/merging, selected-profile writes, app-server config writes, session hot reload, plugin config merging, hooks/config fixture updates, and MCP/app approval persistence. --------- Co-authored-by: Codex <noreply@openai.com>
