## Why
Remote-control app-server enrollments have both an internal server id
and the environment id exposed to remote-control clients. App-server
clients need one current status snapshot that says whether remote
control is usable and which environment id, if any, is exposed.
A temporary websocket disconnect is not itself an identity change.
Account changes, stale enrollment invalidation, successful
re-enrollment, and missing ChatGPT auth are meaningful status changes.
Disabled remote control remains `disabled` regardless of auth or SQLite
state. SQLite startup failure disablement and enrollment persistence
failures are handled in #20068; this PR reports the resulting effective
status to clients.
## What changed
- Adds v2 `remoteControl/status/changed` carrying `state` and
`environmentId`.
- Adds `RemoteControlConnectionState` values: `disabled`, `connecting`,
`connected`, and `errored`.
- Exposes remote-control status updates through `RemoteControlHandle`
using a Tokio watch channel.
- Always sends the current remote-control status snapshot to newly
initialized app-server clients.
- Broadcasts status changes to initialized app-server clients when state
or environment id changes.
- Treats missing ChatGPT auth as an `errored` status while leaving it
retryable because auth can change at runtime.
- Clears `environmentId` when enrollment is cleared for account changes,
auth loss, stale backend invalidation, or disabled remote control.
- Updates app-server protocol schema fixtures, generated TypeScript,
app-server README, remote-control tests, and TUI exhaustive notification
matches.
## Stack
- Builds on #20068.

## Why
Plugins can bundle lifecycle hooks, but Codex previously only discovered
hooks from user, project, and managed config layers. This adds the
plugin discovery and runtime plumbing needed for plugin-bundled hooks
while keeping execution behind the `plugin_hooks` feature flag.
## What
- Discovers plugin hook sources from each plugin's default
`hooks/hooks.json`.
- Supports `plugin.json` manifest `hooks` entries as either relative
paths or inline hook objects.
- Plumbs discovered plugin hook sources through plugin loading into the
hook runtime when `plugin_hooks` is enabled.
- Marks plugin-originated hook runs as `HookSource::Plugin`.
- Injects `PLUGIN_ROOT` and `CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT` into plugin hook
command environments.
- Updates generated schemas and hook source metadata for the plugin hook
source.

3. openai/codex#19840
4. openai/codex#19882
## Reviewer Notes
- Core logic is in `codex-rs/core-plugins/src/loader.rs` and
`codex-rs/hooks/src/engine/discovery.rs`
- Moved existing / adding new tests to
`codex-rs/core-plugins/src/loader_tests.rs` hence the large diff there
- Otherwise mostly plumbing and minor schema updates
### Core Changes
The `codex-rs/core` changes are limited to wiring plugin hook support
into existing core flows:
- `core/src/session/session.rs` conditionally pulls effective plugin
hook sources and plugin hook load warnings from `PluginsManager` when
`plugin_hooks` is enabled, then passes them into `HooksConfig`.
- `core/src/hook_runtime.rs` adds the `plugin` metric tag for
`HookSource::Plugin`.
- `core/config.schema.json` picks up the new `plugin_hooks` feature
flag, and `core/src/plugins/manager_tests.rs` updates fixtures for the
added plugin hook fields.

## Why
The experimental `PermissionProfile` API had both `:cwd` and
`:project_roots` special filesystem paths, which made the permission
root ambiguous. This PR removes the unstable `current_working_directory`
special path before the permissions API is stabilized, so callers use
`:project_roots` for symbolic project-root access.
## What changed
- Removes `FileSystemSpecialPath::CurrentWorkingDirectory` from protocol
and app-server protocol models, plus regenerated app-server
JSON/TypeScript schemas.
- Replaces internal `:cwd` permission entries with `:project_roots`
entries.
- Keeps the existing cwd-update behavior for legacy-shaped
workspace-write profiles, while removing the deleted
`CurrentWorkingDirectory` case from that compatibility path.
- Keeps `PermissionProfile::workspace_write()` as the reusable symbolic
workspace-write helper, with docs noting that `:project_roots` entries
resolve at enforcement time.
- Updates app-server docs/examples and approval UI labeling to stop
advertising `:cwd` as a permission token.
## Compatibility
Persisted rollout items may contain the old
`{"kind":"current_working_directory"}` tag from earlier experimental
`permissionProfile` snapshots. This PR keeps that tag as a
deserialize-only alias for `ProjectRoots { subpath: None }`, while
continuing to serialize only the new `project_roots` tag.
## Follow-up
This PR intentionally does not introduce an explicit project-root set on
`SessionConfiguration` or runtime sandbox resolution. Today, the
resolver still uses the active cwd as the single implicit project root.
A follow-up should model project roots separately from tool cwd so
`:project_roots` entries can resolve against the configured project
roots, and resolve to no entries when there are no project roots.

Adds the app-server v2 goal API on top of the persisted goal state from
PR 1.
## Why
Clients need a stable app-server surface for reading and controlling
materialized thread goals before the model tools and TUI can use them.
Goal changes also need to be observable by app-server clients, including
clients that resume an existing thread.
## What changed
- Added v2 `thread/goal/get`, `thread/goal/set`, and `thread/goal/clear`
RPCs for materialized threads.
- Added `thread/goal/updated` and `thread/goal/cleared` notifications so
clients can keep local goal state in sync.
- Added resume/snapshot wiring so reconnecting clients see the current
goal state for a thread.
- Added app-server handlers that reconcile persisted rollout state
before direct goal mutations.
- Updated the app-server README plus generated JSON and TypeScript
schema fixtures for the new API surface.
## Verification
- Added app-server v2 coverage for goal get/set/clear behavior,
notification emission, resume snapshots, and non-local thread-store
interactions.
## Why
`item/permissions/requestApproval` sends a requested permission profile
to app-server clients. The core profile already stores filesystem
permissions as `entries`, but the v2 compatibility conversion used the
legacy `read`/`write` projection whenever possible and left `entries`
unset.
That made the request ambiguous for clients that consume the canonical
v2 shape: `permissions.fileSystem.entries` was missing even though
filesystem access was being requested. A client that rendered or echoed
grants from `entries` could treat the request as having no filesystem
permission entries, then return an empty or incomplete grant. The
app-server intersects responses with the original request, so omitted
filesystem permissions are denied.
## What Changed
- Populate `AdditionalFileSystemPermissions.entries` when converting
legacy read/write roots for request permission payloads, while
preserving `read` and `write` for compatibility.
- Mark `read` and `write` as transitional schema fields in the generated
app-server schema.
- Add regression coverage for the v2 conversion, the app-server
`item/permissions/requestApproval` round trip, and TUI app-server
approval conversion expectations.
- Refresh generated JSON and TypeScript schema fixtures.

## Summary
This PR adds `CodexAuth::AgentIdentity` as an explicit auth mode.
An AgentIdentity auth record is a standalone `auth.json` mode. When
`AuthManager::auth().await` loads that mode, it registers one
process-scoped task and stores it in runtime-only state on the auth
value. Header creation stays synchronous after that because the task is
initialized before callers receive the auth object.
This PR also removes the old feature flag path. AgentIdentity is
selected by explicit auth mode, not by a hidden flag or lazy mutation of
ChatGPT auth records.
Reference old stack: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/17387/changes
## Design Decisions
- AgentIdentity is a real auth enum variant because it can be the only
credential in `auth.json`.
- The process task is ephemeral runtime state. It is not serialized and
is not stored in rollout/session data.
- Account/user metadata needed by existing Codex backend checks lives on
the AgentIdentity record for now.
- `is_chatgpt_auth()` remains token-specific.
- `uses_codex_backend()` is the broader predicate for ChatGPT-token auth
and AgentIdentity auth.

2. https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18871: isolated Agent Identity

## Testing
Tests: targeted Rust checks, cargo-shear, Bazel lock check, and CI.
Deferred dynamic tools need to round-trip a namespace so a tool returned
by `tool_search` can be called through the same registry key that core
uses for dispatch.
This change adds namespace support for dynamic tool specs/calls,
persists it through app-server thread state, and routes dynamic tool
calls by full `ToolName` while still sending the app the leaf tool name.
Deferred dynamic tools must provide a namespace; non-deferred dynamic
tools may remain top-level.
It also introduces `LoadableToolSpec` as the shared
function-or-namespace Responses shape used by both `tool_search` output
and dynamic tool registration, so dynamic tools use the same wrapping
logic in both paths.

Wires patch_updated events through app_server. These events are parsed
and streamed while apply_patch is being written by the model. Also adds 500ms of buffering to the patch_updated events in the diff_consumer.
The eventual goal is to use this to display better progress indicators in
the codex app.
Cap the model-visible skills section to a small share of the context
window, with a fallback character budget, and keep only as many implicit
skills as fit within that budget.
Emit a non-fatal warning when enabled skills are omitted, and add a new
app-server warning notification

## Why
We need `PermissionRequest` hook support!
Also addresses:
- https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/16301
- run a script on Hook to do things like play a sound to draw attention
but actually no-op so user can still approve
- can omit the `decision` object from output or just have the script
exit 0 and print nothing
- https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/15311
- let the script approve/deny on its own
- external UI what will run on Hook and relay decision back to codex
## Reviewer Note
There's a lot of plumbing for the new hook, key files to review are:
- New hook added in `codex-rs/hooks/src/events/permission_request.rs`
- Wiring for network approvals
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/network_approval.rs`
- Wiring for tool orchestrator `codex-rs/core/src/tools/orchestrator.rs`
- Wiring for execve
`codex-rs/core/src/tools/runtimes/shell/unix_escalation.rs`
## What
- Wires shell, unified exec, and network approval prompts into the
`PermissionRequest` hook flow.
- Lets hooks allow or deny approval prompts; quiet or invalid hooks fall
back to the normal approval path.
- Uses `tool_input.description` for user-facing context when it helps:
- shell / `exec_command`: the request justification, when present
- network approvals: `network-access <domain>`
- Uses `tool_name: Bash` for shell, unified exec, and network approval
permission-request hooks.
- For network approvals, passes the originating command in
`tool_input.command` when there is a single owning call; otherwise falls
back to the synthetic `network-access ...` command.

… import
## Why
`externalAgentConfig/import` used to spawn plugin imports in the
background and return immediately. That meant local marketplace imports
could still be in flight when the caller refreshed plugin state, so
newly imported plugins would not show up right away.
This change makes local marketplace imports complete before the RPC
returns, while keeping remote marketplace imports asynchronous so we do
not block on remote fetches.
## What changed
- split plugin migration details into local and remote marketplace
imports based on the external config source
- import local marketplaces synchronously during
`externalAgentConfig/import`
- return pending remote plugin imports to the app-server so it can
finish them in the background
- clear the plugin and skills caches before responding to plugin
imports, and again after background remote imports complete, so the next
`plugin/list` reloads fresh state
- keep marketplace source parsing encapsulated behind
`is_local_marketplace_source(...)` instead of re-exporting the internal
enum
- add core and app-server coverage for the synchronous local import path
and the pending remote import path
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-core` (currently fails an existing unrelated

Problem: Codex rate-limit fetching failed when the backend returned the
new `prolite` subscription plan type.

## Summary
- Add `TimedOut` to Guardian/review carrier types:
- `ReviewDecision::TimedOut`
- `GuardianAssessmentStatus::TimedOut`
- app-server v2 `GuardianApprovalReviewStatus::TimedOut`
- Regenerate app-server JSON/TypeScript schemas for the new wire shape.
- Wire the new status through core/app-server/TUI mappings with
conservative fail-closed handling.
- Keep `TimedOut` non-user-selectable in the approval UI.
**Does not change runtime behavior yet; emitting `TimeOut` and
parent-model timeout messaging will come in followup PRs**
## Description
This PR introduces `review_id` as the stable identifier for guardian
reviews and exposes it in app-server `item/autoApprovalReview/started`
and `item/autoApprovalReview/completed` events.
Internally, guardian rejection state is now keyed by `review_id` instead
of the reviewed tool item ID. `target_item_id` is still included when a
review maps to a concrete thread item, but it is no longer overloaded as
the review lifecycle identifier.
## Motivation
We'd like to give users the ability to preempt a guardian review while
it's running (approve or decline).
However, we can't implement the API that allows the user to override a
running guardian review because we didn't have a unique `review_id` per
guardian review. Using `target_item_id` is not correct since:
- with execve reviews, there can be multiple execve calls (and therefore
guardian reviews) per shell command
- with network policy reviews, there is no target item ID
The PR that actually implements user overrides will use `review_id` as
the stable identifier.
## Summary
- Replace the manual `/notify-owner` flow with an inline confirmation
prompt when a usage-based workspace member hits a credits-depleted
limit.
- Fetch the current workspace role from the live ChatGPT
`accounts/check/v4-2023-04-27` endpoint so owner/member behavior matches
the desktop and web clients.
- Keep owner, member, and spend-cap messaging distinct so we only offer
the owner nudge when the workspace is actually out of credits.
## What Changed
- `backend-client`
- Added a typed fetch for the current account role from
`accounts/check`.
- Mapped backend role values into a Rust workspace-role enum.
- `app-server` and protocol
- Added `workspaceRole` to `account/read` and `account/updated`.
- Derived `isWorkspaceOwner` from the live role, with a fallback to the
cached token claim when the role fetch is unavailable.
- `tui`
- Removed the explicit `/notify-owner` slash command.
- When a member is blocked because the workspace is out of credits, the
error now prompts:
- `Your workspace is out of credits. Request more from your workspace
owner? [y/N]`
- Choosing `y` sends the existing owner-notification request.
- Choosing `n`, pressing `Esc`, or accepting the default selection
dismisses the prompt without sending anything.
- Selection popups now honor explicit item shortcuts, which is how the
`y` / `n` interaction is wired.
## Reviewer Notes
- The main behavior change is scoped to usage-based workspace members
whose workspace credits are depleted.
- Spend-cap reached should not show the owner-notification prompt.
- Owners and admins should continue to see `/usage` guidance instead of
the member prompt.
- The live role fetch is best-effort; if it fails, we fall back to the
existing token-derived ownership signal.
## Testing
- Manual verification
- Workspace owner does not see the member prompt.
- Workspace member with depleted credits sees the confirmation prompt
and can send the nudge with `y`.
- Workspace member with spend cap reached does not see the
owner-notification prompt.

Addresses #16560
Problem: `/status` stopped showing the source thread id in forked TUI
sessions after the app-server migration.
Solution: Carry fork source ids through app-server v2 thread data and
the TUI session adapter, and update TUI fixtures so `/status` matches
the old TUI behavior.
## Description
Previously the `action` field on `EventMsg::GuardianAssessment`, which
describes what Guardian is reviewing, was typed as an arbitrary JSON
blob. This PR cleans it up and defines a sum type representing all the
various actions that Guardian can review.
This is a breaking change (on purpose), which is fine because:
- the Codex app / VSCE does not actually use `action` at the moment
- the TUI code that consumes `action` is updated in this PR as well
- rollout files that serialized old `EventMsg::GuardianAssessment` will
just silently drop these guardian events
- the contract is defined as unstable, so other clients have a fair
warning :)
This will make things much easier for followup Guardian work.
## Why
The old guardian review payloads worked, but they pushed too much shape
knowledge into downstream consumers. The TUI had custom JSON parsing
logic for commands, patches, network requests, and MCP calls, and the
app-server protocol was effectively just passing through an opaque blob.
Typing this at the protocol boundary makes the contract clearer.
## Summary
- add `self_serve_business_usage_based` and `enterprise_cbp_usage_based`
to the public/internal plan enums and regenerate the app-server + Python
SDK artifacts
- map both plans through JWT login and backend rate-limit payloads, then
bucket them with the existing Team/Business entitlement behavior in
cloud requirements, usage-limit copy, tooltips, and status display
- keep the earlier display-label remap commit on this branch so the new
Team-like and Business-like plans render consistently in the UI

- echo '[block-pre-tool-use]' was blocked before execution by the PreToolUse hook.
- echo '[block-post-tool-use]' ran, but its result was blocked afterward by the PostToolUse hook.
The hook messages were:
- PreToolUse demo blocked the command. Remove [block-pre-tool-use] to continue.
- PostToolUse demo blocked the result after execution. Remove [block-post-tool-use] to continue.
› for the blocked messages (correctly blocked in this test) did the tool output land back into
context?
• Yeah, from this run:
- PreToolUse block: the command itself did not execute, so no command output landed in context. Only
the block message did.
- PostToolUse block: the command did execute, but the actual stdout did not come back into context.
Only the post-tool block message did.
So the blocked notifications landed in context, but the blocked command payloads themselves did not.
Nice clean guardrail, aloha.
```
### Summary
Add the v2 app-server filesystem watch RPCs and notifications, wire them
through the message processor, and implement connection-scoped watches
with notify-backed change delivery. This also updates the schema
fixtures, app-server documentation, and the v2 integration coverage for
watch and unwatch behavior.
This allows clients to efficiently watch for filesystem updates, e.g. to
react on branch changes.
### Testing
- exercise watch lifecycles for directory changes, atomic file
replacement, missing-file targets, and unwatch cleanup
- 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

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.
```
## Summary
- queue input after the user submits `/compact` until that manual
compact turn ends
- mirror the same behavior in the app-server TUI
- add regressions for input queued before compact starts and while it is
running

- emit a typed `thread/realtime/transcriptUpdated` notification from
live realtime transcript deltas
- expose that notification as flat `threadId`, `role`, and `text` fields
instead of a nested transcript array
- continue forwarding raw `handoff_request` items on
`thread/realtime/itemAdded`, including the accumulated
`active_transcript`
- update app-server docs, tests, and generated protocol schema artifacts
to match the delta-based payloads

This PR add an URI-based system to reference agents within a tree. This
comes from a sync between research and engineering.
The main agent (the one manually spawned by a user) is always called
`/root`. Any sub-agent spawned by it will be `/root/agent_1` for example
where `agent_1` is chosen by the model.
Any agent can contact any agents using the path.
Paths can be used either in absolute or relative to the calling agents
Resume is not supported for now on this new path
## Summary
Persist Stop-hook continuation prompts as `user` messages instead of
hidden `developer` messages + some requested integration tests
This is a followup to @pakrym 's comment in
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/14532 to make sure stop-block
continuation prompts match training for turn loops
- Stop continuation now writes `<hook_prompt hook_run_id="...">stop
hook's user prompt<hook_prompt>`
- Introduces quick-xml dependency, though we already indirectly depended
on it anyway via syntect
- This PR only has about 500 lines of actual logic changes, the rest is
tests/schema
## Testing
Example run (with a sessionstart hook and 3 stop hooks) - this shows
context added by session start, then two stop hooks sending their own
additional prompts in a new turn. The model responds with a single
message addressing both. Then when that turn ends, the hooks detect that
they just ran using `stop_hook_active` and decide not to infinite loop
test files for this (unzip, move codex -> .codex):

1. Added SessionSource::Custom(String) and --session-source.
2. Enforced plugin and skill products by session_source.
3. Applied the same filtering to curated background refresh.
This PR adds a new `thread/shellCommand` app server API so clients can
implement `!` shell commands. These commands are executed within the
sandbox, and the command text and output are visible to the model.
The internal implementation mirrors the current TUI `!` behavior.
- persist shell command execution as `CommandExecution` thread items,
including source and formatted output metadata
- bridge live and replayed app-server command execution events back into
the existing `tui_app_server` exec rendering path
This PR also wires `tui_app_server` to submit `!` commands through the
new API.
1. Use requirement-resolved config.features as the plugin gate.
2. Guard plugin/list, plugin/read, and related flows behind that gate.
3. Skip bad marketplace.json files instead of failing the whole list.
4. Simplify plugin state and caching.
- this allows blocking the user's prompts from executing, and also
prevents them from entering history
- handles the edge case where you can both prevent the user's prompt AND
add n amount of additionalContexts
- refactors some old code into common.rs where hooks overlap
functionality
- refactors additionalContext being previously added to user messages,
instead we use developer messages for them
- handles queued messages correctly
Sample hook for testing - if you write "[block-user-submit]" this hook
will stop the thread:
example run
