## Why Extracted from [#16528](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/16528) so the Windows Bazel app-server test failures can be reviewed independently from the rest of that PR. This PR targets: - `suite::v2::thread_shell_command::thread_shell_command_runs_as_standalone_turn_and_persists_history` - `suite::v2::thread_start::thread_start_with_elevated_sandbox_trusts_project_and_followup_loads_project_config` - `suite::v2::thread_start::thread_start_with_nested_git_cwd_trusts_repo_root` There were two Windows-specific assumptions baked into those tests and the underlying trust lookup: - project trust keys were persisted and looked up using raw path strings, but Bazel's Windows test environment can surface canonicalized paths with `\\?\` / UNC prefixes or normalized symlink/junction targets, so follow-up `thread/start` requests no longer matched the project entry that had just been written - `item/commandExecution/outputDelta` assertions compared exact trailing line endings even though shell output chunk boundaries and CRLF handling can differ on Windows, and Bazel made that timing-sensitive mismatch visible There was also one behavior bug separate from the assertion cleanup: `thread/start` decided whether to persist trust from the final resolved sandbox policy, but on Windows an explicit `workspace-write` request may be downgraded to `read-only`. That incorrectly skipped writing trust even though the request had asked to elevate the project, so the new logic also keys off the requested sandbox mode. ## What - Canonicalize project trust keys when persisting/loading `[projects]` entries, while still accepting legacy raw keys for existing configs. - Persist project trust when `thread/start` explicitly requests `workspace-write` or `danger-full-access`, even if the resolved policy is later downgraded on Windows. - Make the Windows app-server tests compare persisted trust paths and command output deltas in a path/newline-normalized way. ## Verification - Existing app-server v2 tests cover the three failing Windows Bazel cases above.
codex-core config loader
This module is the canonical place to load and describe Codex configuration layers (user config, CLI/session overrides, managed config, and MDM-managed preferences) and to produce:
- An effective merged TOML config.
- Per-key origins metadata (which layer “wins” for a given key).
- Per-layer versions (stable fingerprints) used for optimistic concurrency / conflict detection.
Public surface
Exported from codex_core::config_loader:
load_config_layers_state(codex_home, cwd_opt, cli_overrides, overrides, cloud_requirements) -> ConfigLayerStackConfigLayerStackeffective_config() -> toml::Valueorigins() -> HashMap<String, ConfigLayerMetadata>layers_high_to_low() -> Vec<ConfigLayer>with_user_config(user_config) -> ConfigLayerStack
ConfigLayerEntry(one layer’s{name, config, version, disabled_reason};namecarries source metadata)LoaderOverrides(test/override hooks for managed config sources)merge_toml_values(base, overlay)(public helper used elsewhere)
Layering model
Precedence is top overrides bottom:
- MDM managed preferences (macOS only)
- System managed config (e.g.
managed_config.toml) - Session flags (CLI overrides, applied as dotted-path TOML writes)
- User config (
config.toml)
Layers with a disabled_reason are still surfaced for UI, but are ignored when
computing the effective config and origins metadata. This is what
ConfigLayerStack::effective_config() implements.
Typical usage
Most callers want the effective config plus metadata:
use codex_core::config_loader::{load_config_layers_state, LoaderOverrides};
use codex_utils_absolute_path::AbsolutePathBuf;
use toml::Value as TomlValue;
let cli_overrides: Vec<(String, TomlValue)> = Vec::new();
let cwd = AbsolutePathBuf::current_dir()?;
let layers = load_config_layers_state(
&codex_home,
Some(cwd),
&cli_overrides,
LoaderOverrides::default(),
None,
).await?;
let effective = layers.effective_config();
let origins = layers.origins();
let layers_for_ui = layers.layers_high_to_low();
Internal layout
Implementation is split by concern:
state.rs: public types (ConfigLayerEntry,ConfigLayerStack) + merge/origins convenience methods.layer_io.rs: readingconfig.toml, managed config, and managed preferences inputs.overrides.rs: CLI dotted-path overrides → TOML “session flags” layer.merge.rs: recursive TOML merge.fingerprint.rs: stable per-layer hashing and per-key origins traversal.macos.rs: managed preferences integration (macOS only).
