Felipe Coury 833c19ed53 fix(tui): keep raw output above composer in zellij (#24593)
## Why

Raw output mode intentionally sends logical source lines to the terminal
without Codex-inserted wrapping so copied content retains its original
line structure. In Zellij, soft-wrapped continuation rows from those raw
lines are not confined by the inline history scroll region. When raw
mode replays a long transcript, continuation rows can occupy the
composer viewport and are overwritten on the following draw, leaving the
transcript visibly truncated underneath the composer.

This is specific to the combination of Zellij and raw terminal-wrapped
history. Rich output and non-Zellij terminals should continue using the
existing insertion behavior.

Related context: #20819 introduced raw output mode, and #22214 removed
the broad Zellij insertion workaround after the standard rich-output
path no longer required it.

## What Changed

- Cache Zellij detection in `Tui` and select a dedicated insertion mode
only for `HistoryLineWrapPolicy::Terminal` batches in Zellij.
- For that guarded path, clear the existing viewport, append raw source
lines through the terminal so its soft wrapping remains
selection-friendly, and reserve empty viewport rows before redrawing the
composer.
- Add snapshot regressions for both an incremental soft-wrapped raw
insert and an overflowing raw transcript replay that starts at the top
of the cleared terminal.

## How to Test

1. Start Codex inside Zellij with raw output enabled or toggle raw
output after a multiline response is in history.
2. Produce or replay output containing long logical lines, such as a
fenced shell command with several wrapped lines.
3. Confirm the wrapped history remains visible above the composer and
the composer no longer overwrites the end of the response.
4. Toggle back to rich output or run outside Zellij and confirm standard
history rendering still behaves normally.

Targeted tests run:

- `just test -p codex-tui vt100_zellij_raw -- --nocapture`

Additional validation notes:

- `just test -p codex-tui` was attempted; the two new Zellij raw
insertion tests passed, while two existing
`app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_*` tests failed
outside this history insertion path.
- `just argument-comment-lint` was attempted but local Bazel analysis
fails before reaching the changed source because the LLVM `compiler-rt`
package is missing `include/sanitizer/*.h`. Modified literal callsites
were inspected manually.

Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.

Codex CLI splash


If you want Codex in your code editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), install in your IDE.
If you want the desktop app experience, run codex app or visit the Codex App page.
If you are looking for the cloud-based agent from OpenAI, Codex Web, go to chatgpt.com/codex.


Quickstart

Installing and running Codex CLI

Run the following on Mac or Linux to install Codex CLI:

curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | sh

Run the following on Windows to install Codex CLI:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex"

Codex CLI can also be installed via the following package managers:

# Install using npm
npm install -g @openai/codex
# Install using Homebrew
brew install --cask codex

Then simply run codex to get started.

You can also go to the latest GitHub Release and download the appropriate binary for your platform.

Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these:

  • macOS
    • Apple Silicon/arm64: codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
    • x86_64 (older Mac hardware): codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
  • Linux
    • x86_64: codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
    • arm64: codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz

Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl), so you likely want to rename it to codex after extracting it.
