Felipe Coury 8a4a537e44 fix(tui): avoid modifyOtherKeys for unknown tmux formats (#24371)
## Why

Codex 0.131 started enabling tmux `modifyOtherKeys` mode 2 when the
active tmux session reported `extended-keys-format csi-u`, and also when
that format could not be queried. The fallback was meant to help
compatible tmux panes enter extended-key mode, but it breaks iTerm2
control-mode sessions on older tmux.

Issue #23711 reproduces with:

```bash
ssh -t ubuntu@192.168.68.149 'tmux -CC new -A -s main'
```

On tmux 3.2a, `extended-keys-format` is not available. With mode 2
enabled, `Ctrl-C` is delivered as `^[[27;5;99~` instead of the normal
interrupt/control key path, so Codex does not handle it. Running with
`CODEX_TUI_DISABLE_KEYBOARD_ENHANCEMENT=1` restores `Ctrl-C`, which
points at keyboard mode setup rather than chat input routing.

## What Changed

- Only request `modifyOtherKeys` mode 2 when tmux explicitly reports
`extended-keys-format csi-u`.
- Treat an unknown or unavailable tmux extended-key format as
unsupported for this mode.
- Update the keyboard mode unit coverage so `None` no longer opts into
`modifyOtherKeys`.

This preserves the explicit modern tmux `csi-u` path from #21943 while
avoiding the unsafe fallback on older or unqueryable tmux setups.

## How to Test

Regression path from #23711:

1. Start iTerm2 tmux integration against an older tmux host:
   ```bash
   ssh -t ubuntu@192.168.68.149 'tmux -CC new -A -s main'
   ```
2. Start patched Codex.
3. Run `/keymap debug`, press a regular key, then press `Ctrl-C`.
4. Confirm `Ctrl-C` closes the inspector and Codex remains responsive
without `CODEX_TUI_DISABLE_KEYBOARD_ENHANCEMENT=1`.
5. Confirm `Shift+Enter` still inserts a newline in the same session.

Modern tmux compatibility path:

1. Start an ordinary tmux 3.6a server with explicit `csi-u`:
   ```bash
   tmux -L codex-csiu -f /dev/null new-session -d -s repro
   tmux -L codex-csiu set-option -g extended-keys on
   tmux -L codex-csiu set-option -g extended-keys-format csi-u
   tmux -L codex-csiu attach -t repro
   ```
2. Start patched Codex.
3. From another terminal, confirm the Codex pane reports `mode=Ext 2`:
   ```bash
tmux -L codex-csiu list-panes -a -F '#{pane_id} mode=#{pane_key_mode}
cmd=#{pane_current_command}'
   ```
4. Type `one`, press `Shift+Enter`, type `two`, and confirm the composer
shows two lines without submitting.
5. Press `Ctrl-C` and confirm Codex handles it normally.

Targeted tests:

- `./tools/argument-comment-lint/run.py -p codex-tui -- --lib`
- `just test -p codex-tui` runs the new keyboard mode test successfully;
the full run currently reports two unrelated guardian feature-flag test
failures:
-
`app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_manual_review_policy_without_history`
-
`app::tests::update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_review_policy_and_restores_default`

No documentation update is needed.

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.
