This stack layer makes app-server thread event delivery connection-aware
so resumed/attached threads only emit notifications and approval prompts
to subscribed connections.
- Added per-thread subscription tracking in `ThreadState`
(`subscribed_connections`) and mapped subscription ids to `(thread_id,
connection_id)`.
- Updated listener lifecycle so removing a subscription or closing a
connection only removes that connection from the thread’s subscriber
set; listener shutdown now happens when the last subscriber is gone.
- Added `connection_closed(connection_id)` plumbing (`lib.rs` ->
`message_processor.rs` -> `codex_message_processor.rs`) so disconnect
cleanup happens immediately.
- Scoped bespoke event handling outputs through `TargetedOutgoing` to
send requests/notifications only to subscribed connections.
- Kept existing threadresume behavior while aligning with the latest
split-loop transport structure.
Reapply "Add app-server transport layer with websocket support" with
additional fixes from https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/11313/changes
to avoid deadlocking.
This reverts commit 47356ff83c.
## Summary
To avoid deadlocking when queues are full, we maintain separate tokio
tasks dedicated to incoming vs outgoing event handling
- split the app-server main loop into two tasks in
`run_main_with_transport`
- inbound handling (`transport_event_rx`)
- outbound handling (`outgoing_rx` + `thread_created_rx`)
- separate incoming and outgoing websocket tasks
## Validation
Integration tests, testing thoroughly e2e in codex app w/ >10 concurrent
requests

- Adds --listen <URL> to codex app-server with two listen modes:
- stdio:// (default, existing behavior)
- ws://IP:PORT (new websocket transport)
- Refactors message routing to be connection-aware:
- Tracks per-connection session state (initialize/experimental
capability)
- Routes responses/errors to the originating connection
- Broadcasts server notifications/requests to initialized connections
- Updates initialization semantics to be per connection (not
process-global), and updates app-server docs accordingly.
- Adds websocket accept/read/write handling (JSON-RPC per text frame,
ping/pong handling, connection lifecycle events).
Testing
- Unit tests for transport URL parsing and targeted response/error
routing.
- New websocket integration test validating:
- per-connection initialization requirements
- no cross-connection response leakage
- same request IDs on different connections route independently.
