- add `PreToolUse` hook for bash-like tool execution only at first
- block shell execution before dispatch with deny-only hook behavior
- introduces common.rs matcher framework for matching when hooks are run
example run:
```
› run three parallel echo commands, and the second one should echo "[block-pre-tool-use]" as a test
• Running the three echo commands in parallel now and I’ll report the output directly.
• Running PreToolUse hook: name for demo pre tool use hook
• Running PreToolUse hook: name for demo pre tool use hook
• Running PreToolUse hook: name for demo pre tool use hook
PreToolUse hook (completed)
warning: wizard-tower PreToolUse demo inspected Bash: echo "first parallel echo"
PreToolUse hook (blocked)
warning: wizard-tower PreToolUse demo blocked a Bash command on purpose.
feedback: PreToolUse demo blocked the command. Remove [block-pre-tool-use] to continue.
PreToolUse hook (completed)
warning: wizard-tower PreToolUse demo inspected Bash: echo "third parallel echo"
• Ran echo "first parallel echo"
└ first parallel echo
• Ran echo "third parallel echo"
└ third parallel echo
• Three little waves went out in parallel.
1. printed first parallel echo
2. was blocked before execution because it contained the exact test string [block-pre-tool-use]
3. printed third parallel echo
There was also an unrelated macOS defaults warning around the successful commands, but the echoes
themselves worked fine. If you want, I can rerun the second one with a slightly modified string so
it passes cleanly.
```
- Split the feature system into a new `codex-features` crate.
- Cut `codex-core` and workspace consumers over to the new config and
warning APIs.

## Summary
This test was missing the turn completion event in the responses stream,
so it was hanging. This PR fixes the issue
## Testing
- [x] This does update the test
## Why
Enterprises can already constrain approvals, sandboxing, and web search
through `requirements.toml` and MDM, but feature flags were still only
configurable as managed defaults. That meant an enterprise could suggest
feature values, but it could not actually pin them.
This change closes that gap and makes enterprise feature requirements
behave like the other constrained settings. The effective feature set
now stays consistent with enterprise requirements during config load,
when config writes are validated, and when runtime code mutates feature
flags later in the session.
It also tightens the runtime API for managed features. `ManagedFeatures`
now follows the same constraint-oriented shape as `Constrained<T>`
instead of exposing panic-prone mutation helpers, and production code
can no longer construct it through an unconstrained `From<Features>`
path.
The PR also hardens the `compact_resume_fork` integration coverage on
Windows. After the feature-management changes,
`compact_resume_after_second_compaction_preserves_history` was
overflowing the libtest/Tokio thread stacks on Windows, so the test now
uses an explicit larger-stack harness as a pragmatic mitigation. That
may not be the ideal root-cause fix, and it merits a parallel
investigation into whether part of the async future chain should be
boxed to reduce stack pressure instead.
## What Changed
Enterprises can now pin feature values in `requirements.toml` with the
requirements-side `features` table:
```toml
[features]
personality = true
unified_exec = false
```
Only canonical feature keys are allowed in the requirements `features`
table; omitted keys remain unconstrained.
- Added a requirements-side pinned feature map to
`ConfigRequirementsToml`, threaded it through source-preserving
requirements merge and normalization in `codex-config`, and made the
TOML surface use `[features]` (while still accepting legacy
`[feature_requirements]` for compatibility).
- Exposed `featureRequirements` from `configRequirements/read`,
regenerated the JSON/TypeScript schema artifacts, and updated the
app-server README.
- Wrapped the effective feature set in `ManagedFeatures`, backed by
`ConstrainedWithSource<Features>`, and changed its API to mirror
`Constrained<T>`: `can_set(...)`, `set(...) -> ConstraintResult<()>`,
and result-returning `enable` / `disable` / `set_enabled` helpers.
- Removed the legacy-usage and bulk-map passthroughs from
`ManagedFeatures`; callers that need those behaviors now mutate a plain
`Features` value and reapply it through `set(...)`, so the constrained
wrapper remains the enforcement boundary.
- Removed the production loophole for constructing unconstrained
`ManagedFeatures`. Non-test code now creates it through the configured
feature-loading path, and `impl From<Features> for ManagedFeatures` is
restricted to `#[cfg(test)]`.
- Rejected legacy feature aliases in enterprise feature requirements,
and return a load error when a pinned combination cannot survive
dependency normalization.
- Validated config writes against enterprise feature requirements before
persisting changes, including explicit conflicting writes and
profile-specific feature states that normalize into invalid
combinations.
- Updated runtime and TUI feature-toggle paths to use the constrained
setter API and to persist or apply the effective post-constraint value
rather than the requested value.
- Updated the `core_test_support` Bazel target to include the bundled
core model-catalog fixtures in its runtime data, so helper code that
resolves `core/models.json` through runfiles works in remote Bazel test
environments.
- Renamed the core config test coverage to emphasize that effective
feature values are normalized at runtime, while conflicting persisted
config writes are rejected.
- Ran `compact_resume_after_second_compaction_preserves_history` inside
an explicit 8 MiB test thread and Tokio runtime worker stack, following
the existing larger-stack integration-test pattern, to keep the Windows
`compact_resume_fork` test slice from aborting while a parallel
investigation continues into whether some of the underlying async
futures should be boxed.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-config`
- `cargo test -p codex-core feature_requirements_ -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
load_requirements_toml_produces_expected_constraints -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
compact_resume_after_second_compaction_preserves_history -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core compact_resume_fork -- --nocapture`
- Re-ran the built `codex-core` `tests/all` binary with
`RUST_MIN_STACK=262144` for
`compact_resume_after_second_compaction_preserves_history` to confirm
the explicit-stack harness fixes the deterministic low-stack repro.
- `cargo test -p codex-core`
- This still fails locally in unrelated integration areas that expect
the `codex` / `test_stdio_server` binaries or hit existing `search_tool`
wiremock mismatches.
## Docs
`developers.openai.com/codex` should document the requirements-side
`[features]` table for enterprise and MDM-managed configuration,
including that it only accepts canonical feature keys and that
conflicting config writes are rejected.
Summary
- capture the origin for each configured MCP server and expose it via
the connection manager
- plumb MCP server name/origin into tool logging and emit
codex.tool_result events with those fields
- add unit coverage for origin parsing and extend OTEL tests to assert
empty MCP fields for non-MCP tools
- currently not logging full urls or url paths to prevent logging
potentially sensitive data
Testing
- Not run (not requested)
zsh fork PR stack:
- https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/12051👈
- https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/12052
With upcoming support for a fork of zsh that allows us to intercept
`execve` and run execpolicy checks for each subcommand as part of a
`CommandExecution`, it will be possible for there to be multiple
approval requests for a shell command like `/path/to/zsh -lc 'git status
&& rg \"TODO\" src && make test'`.
To support that, this PR introduces a new `approval_id` field across
core, protocol, and app-server so that we can associate approvals
properly for subcommands.
## Why
We currently carry multiple permission-related concepts directly on
`Config` for shell/unified-exec behavior (`approval_policy`,
`sandbox_policy`, `network`, `shell_environment_policy`,
`windows_sandbox_mode`).
Consolidating these into one in-memory struct makes permission handling
easier to reason about and sets up the next step: supporting named
permission profiles (`[permissions.PROFILE_NAME]`) without changing
behavior now.
This change is mostly mechanical: it updates existing callsites to go
through `config.permissions`, but it does not yet refactor those
callsites to take a single `Permissions` value in places where multiple
permission fields are still threaded separately.
This PR intentionally **does not** change the on-disk `config.toml`
format yet and keeps compatibility with legacy config keys.
## What Changed
- Introduced `Permissions` in `core/src/config/mod.rs`.
- Added `Config::permissions` and moved effective runtime permission
fields under it:
- `approval_policy`
- `sandbox_policy`
- `network`
- `shell_environment_policy`
- `windows_sandbox_mode`
- Updated config loading/building so these effective values are still
derived from the same existing config inputs and constraints.
- Updated Windows sandbox helpers/resolution to read/write via
`permissions`.
- Threaded the new field through all permission consumers across core
runtime, app-server, CLI/exec, TUI, and sandbox summary code.
- Updated affected tests to reference `config.permissions.*`.
- Renamed the struct/field from
`EffectivePermissions`/`effective_permissions` to
`Permissions`/`permissions` and aligned variable naming accordingly.
## Verification
- `just fix -p codex-core -p codex-tui -p codex-cli -p codex-app-server
-p codex-exec -p codex-utils-sandbox-summary`
- `cargo build -p codex-core -p codex-tui -p codex-cli -p
codex-app-server -p codex-exec -p codex-utils-sandbox-summary`
What changed
- Added `outputSchema` support to the app-server APIs, mirroring `codex
exec --output-schema` behavior.
- V1 `sendUserTurn` now accepts `outputSchema` and constrains the final
assistant message for that turn.
- V2 `turn/start` now accepts `outputSchema` and constrains the final
assistant message for that turn (explicitly per-turn only).
Core behavior
- `Op::UserTurn` already supported `final_output_json_schema`; now V1
`sendUserTurn` forwards `outputSchema` into that field.
- `Op::UserInput` now carries `final_output_json_schema` for per-turn
settings updates; core maps it into
`SessionSettingsUpdate.final_output_json_schema` so it applies to the
created turn context.
- V2 `turn/start` does NOT persist the schema via `OverrideTurnContext`
(it’s applied only for the current turn). Other overrides
(cwd/model/etc) keep their existing persistent behavior.
API / docs
- `codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v1.rs`: add `output_schema:
Option<serde_json::Value>` to `SendUserTurnParams` (serialized as
`outputSchema`).
- `codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2.rs`: add `output_schema:
Option<JsonValue>` to `TurnStartParams` (serialized as `outputSchema`).
- `codex-rs/app-server/README.md`: document `outputSchema` for
`turn/start` and clarify it applies only to the current turn.
- `codex-rs/docs/codex_mcp_interface.md`: document `outputSchema` for v1
`sendUserTurn` and v2 `turn/start`.
Tests added/updated
- New app-server integration tests asserting `outputSchema` is forwarded
into outbound `/responses` requests as `text.format`:
- `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/output_schema.rs`
- `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/output_schema.rs`
- Added per-turn semantics tests (schema does not leak to the next
turn):
- `send_user_turn_output_schema_is_per_turn_v1`
- `turn_start_output_schema_is_per_turn_v2`
- Added protocol wire-compat tests for the merged op:
- serialize omits `final_output_json_schema` when `None`
- deserialize works when field is missing
- serialize includes `final_output_json_schema` when `Some(schema)`
Call site updates (high level)
- Updated all `Op::UserInput { .. }` constructions to include
`final_output_json_schema`:
- `codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs`
- `codex-rs/core/src/codex_delegate.rs`
- `codex-rs/mcp-server/src/codex_tool_runner.rs`
- `codex-rs/tui/src/chatwidget.rs`
- `codex-rs/tui2/src/chatwidget.rs`
- plus impacted core tests.
Validation

- `cargo test -p codex-core`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server`
- `cargo test -p codex-mcp-server`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui2`
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol`
- `cargo clippy --all-features --tests --profile dev --fix -- -D

This adds support for `allowed_sandbox_modes` in `requirements.toml` and
provides legacy support for constraining sandbox modes in
`managed_config.toml`. This is converted to `Constrained<SandboxPolicy>`
in `ConfigRequirements` and applied to `Config` such that constraints
are enforced throughout the harness.
Note that, because `managed_config.toml` is deprecated, we do not add
support for the new `external-sandbox` variant recently introduced in
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/8290. As noted, that variant is not
supported in `config.toml` today, but can be configured programmatically
via app server.
Constrain `approval_policy` through new `admin_policy` config.
This PR will:
1. Add a `admin_policy` section to config, with a single field (for now)
`allowed_approval_policies`. This list constrains the set of
user-settable `approval_policy`s.
2. Introduce a new `Constrained<T>` type, which combines a current value
and a validator function. The validator function ensures disallowed
values are not set.
3. Change the type of `approval_policy` on `Config` and
`SessionConfiguration` from `AskForApproval` to
`Constrained<AskForApproval>`. The validator function is set by the
values passed into `allowed_approval_policies`.
4. `GenericDisplayRow`: add a `disabled_reason: Option<String>`. When
set, it disables selection of the value and indicates as such in the
menu. This also makes it unselectable with arrow keys or numbers. This
is used in the `/approvals` menu.
Follow ups are:
1. Do the same thing to `sandbox_policy`.
2. Propagate the allowed set of values through app-server for the
extension (though already this should prevent app-server from setting
this values, it's just that we want to disable UI elements that are
unsettable).
Happy to split this PR up if you prefer, into the logical numbered areas
above. Especially if there are parts we want to gavel on separately
(e.g. admin_policy).

### Title
## otel
Codex can emit [OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/) **log events**
that
describe each run: outbound API requests, streamed responses, user
input,
tool-approval decisions, and the result of every tool invocation. Export
is
**disabled by default** so local runs remain self-contained. Opt in by
adding an
`[otel]` table and choosing an exporter.
```toml
[otel]
environment = "staging" # defaults to "dev"
exporter = "none" # defaults to "none"; set to otlp-http or otlp-grpc to send events
log_user_prompt = false # defaults to false; redact prompt text unless explicitly enabled
```
Codex tags every exported event with `service.name = "codex-cli"`, the
CLI
version, and an `env` attribute so downstream collectors can distinguish
dev/staging/prod traffic. Only telemetry produced inside the
`codex_otel`
crate—the events listed below—is forwarded to the exporter.
### Event catalog
Every event shares a common set of metadata fields: `event.timestamp`,
`conversation.id`, `app.version`, `auth_mode` (when available),
`user.account_id` (when available), `terminal.type`, `model`, and
`slug`.
With OTEL enabled Codex emits the following event types (in addition to
the
metadata above):
- `codex.api_request`
- `cf_ray` (optional)
- `attempt`
- `duration_ms`
- `http.response.status_code` (optional)
- `error.message` (failures)
- `codex.sse_event`
- `event.kind`
- `duration_ms`
- `error.message` (failures)
- `input_token_count` (completion only)
- `output_token_count` (completion only)
- `cached_token_count` (completion only, optional)
- `reasoning_token_count` (completion only, optional)
- `tool_token_count` (completion only)
- `codex.user_prompt`
- `prompt_length`
- `prompt` (redacted unless `log_user_prompt = true`)
- `codex.tool_decision`
- `tool_name`
- `call_id`
- `decision` (`approved`, `approved_for_session`, `denied`, or `abort`)
- `source` (`config` or `user`)
- `codex.tool_result`
- `tool_name`
- `call_id`
- `arguments`
- `duration_ms` (execution time for the tool)
- `success` (`"true"` or `"false"`)
- `output`
### Choosing an exporter
Set `otel.exporter` to control where events go:
- `none` – leaves instrumentation active but skips exporting. This is
the
default.
- `otlp-http` – posts OTLP log records to an OTLP/HTTP collector.
Specify the
endpoint, protocol, and headers your collector expects:
```toml
[otel]
exporter = { otlp-http = {
endpoint = "https://otel.example.com/v1/logs",
protocol = "binary",
headers = { "x-otlp-api-key" = "${OTLP_TOKEN}" }
}}
```
- `otlp-grpc` – streams OTLP log records over gRPC. Provide the endpoint
and any
metadata headers:
```toml
[otel]
exporter = { otlp-grpc = {
endpoint = "https://otel.example.com:4317",
headers = { "x-otlp-meta" = "abc123" }
}}
```
If the exporter is `none` nothing is written anywhere; otherwise you
must run or point to your
own collector. All exporters run on a background batch worker that is
flushed on
shutdown.
If you build Codex from source the OTEL crate is still behind an `otel`
feature
flag; the official prebuilt binaries ship with the feature enabled. When
the
feature is disabled the telemetry hooks become no-ops so the CLI
continues to
function without the extra dependencies.
