f23fcd6ced guardian initial feedback / tweaks (#13897)
## Summary
- remove the remaining model-visible guardian-specific `on-request`
prompt additions so enabling the feature does not change the main
approval-policy instructions
- neutralize user-facing guardian wording to talk about automatic
approval review / approval requests rather than a second reviewer or
only sandbox escalations
- tighten guardian retry-context handling so agent-authored
`justification` stays in the structured action JSON and is not also
injected as raw retry context
- simplify guardian review plumbing in core by deleting dead
prompt-append paths and trimming some request/transcript setup code

## Notable Changes
- delete the dead `permissions/approval_policy/guardian.md` append path
and stop threading `guardian_approval_enabled` through model-facing
developer-instruction builders
- rename the experimental feature copy to `Automatic approval review`
and update the `/experimental` snapshot text accordingly
- make approval-review status strings generic across shell, patch,
network, and MCP review types
- forward real sandbox/network retry reasons for shell and unified-exec
guardian review, but do not pass agent-authored justification as raw
retry context
- simplify `guardian.rs` by removing the one-field request wrapper,
deduping reasoning-effort selection, and cleaning up transcript entry
collection

## Testing
- `just fmt`
- full validation left to CI

e6b93841c5 Add request permissions tool (#13092)
Adds a built-in `request_permissions` tool and wires it through the
Codex core, protocol, and app-server layers so a running turn can ask
the client for additional permissions instead of relying on a static
session policy.

The new flow emits a `RequestPermissions` event from core, tracks the
pending request by call ID, forwards it through app-server v2 as an
`item/permissions/requestApproval` request, and resumes the tool call
once the client returns an approved subset of the requested permission
profile.

340f9c9ecb app-server: include experimental skill metadata in exec approval requests (#13929)
## Summary

This change surfaces skill metadata on command approval requests so
app-server clients can tell when an approval came from a skill script
and identify the originating `SKILL.md`.

- add `skill_metadata` to exec approval events in the shared protocol
- thread skill metadata through core shell escalation and delegated
approval handling for skill-triggered approvals
- expose the field in app-server v2 as experimental `skillMetadata`
- regenerate the JSON/TypeScript schemas and cover the new field in
protocol, transport, core, and TUI tests

## Why

Skill-triggered approvals already carry skill context inside core, but
app-server clients could not see which skill caused the prompt. Sending
the skill metadata with the approval request makes it possible for
clients to present better approval UX and connect the prompt back to the
relevant skill definition.

1f150eda8b Stabilize shell serialization tests (#13877)
## What changed
- The duration-recording fixture sleep was reduced from a large
artificial delay to `0.2s`, and the assertion floor was lowered to
`0.1s`.
- The shell tool fixtures now force `login = false` so they do not
invoke login-shell startup paths.

## Why this fixes the flake
- The old tests were paying for two kinds of noise that had nothing to
do with the feature being validated: oversized sleep time and variable
shell initialization cost.
- Login shells can pick up runner-specific startup files and incur
inconsistent startup latency.
- The test only needs to prove that we record a nontrivial duration and
preserve shell output. A shorter fixture delay plus a non-login shell
keeps that coverage while removing runner-dependent wall-clock variance.

## Scope
- Test-only change.

7ba1fccfc1 fix(ci): restore guardian coverage and bazel unit tests (#13912)
## Summary
- restore the guardian review request snapshot test and its tracked
snapshot after it was dropped from `main`
- make Bazel Rust unit-test wrappers resolve runfiles correctly on
manifest-only platforms like macOS and point Insta at the real workspace
root
- harden the shell-escalation socket-closure assertion so the musl Bazel
test no longer depends on fd reuse behavior

## Verification
- cargo test -p codex-core
guardian_review_request_layout_matches_model_visible_request_snapshot
- cargo test -p codex-shell-escalation
- bazel test //codex-rs/exec:exec-unit-tests
//codex-rs/shell-escalation:shell-escalation-unit-tests

Supersedes #13894.

3b5fe5ca35 protocol: keep root carveouts sandboxed (#13452)
## Why

A restricted filesystem policy that grants `:root` read or write access
but also carries explicit deny entries should still behave like scoped
access with carveouts, not like unrestricted disk access.

Without that distinction, later platform backends cannot preserve
blocked subpaths under root-level permissions because the protocol layer
reports the policy as fully unrestricted.

## What changed

- taught `FileSystemSandboxPolicy` to treat root access plus explicit
deny entries as scoped access rather than full-disk access
- derived readable and writable roots from the filesystem root when root
access is combined with carveouts, while preserving the denied paths as
read-only subpaths
- added protocol coverage for root-write policies with carveouts and a
core sandboxing regression so those policies still require platform
sandboxing

## Verification

- added protocol coverage in `protocol/src/permissions.rs` and
`protocol/src/protocol.rs` for root access with explicit carveouts
- added platform-sandbox regression coverage in
`core/src/sandboxing/mod.rs`
- verified the current PR state with `just clippy`

46b8d127cf sandboxing: preserve denied paths when widening permissions (#13451)
## Why

After the split-policy plumbing landed, additional-permissions widening
still rebuilt filesystem access through the legacy projection in a few
places.

That can erase explicit deny entries and make the runtime treat a policy
as fully writable even when it still has blocked subpaths, which in turn
can skip the platform sandbox when it is still needed.

## What changed

- preserved explicit deny entries when merging additional read and write
permissions into `FileSystemSandboxPolicy`
- switched platform-sandbox selection to rely on
`FileSystemSandboxPolicy::has_full_disk_write_access()` instead of ad
hoc root-write checks
- kept the widened policy path in `core/src/exec.rs` and
`core/src/sandboxing/mod.rs` aligned so denied subpaths survive both
policy merging and sandbox selection
- added regression coverage for root-write policies that still carry
carveouts

## Verification

- added regression coverage in `core/src/sandboxing/mod.rs` showing that
root write plus carveouts still requires the platform sandbox
- verified the current PR state with `just clippy`

07a30da3fb linux-sandbox: plumb split sandbox policies through helper (#13449)
## Why

The Linux sandbox helper still only accepted the legacy `SandboxPolicy`
payload.

That meant the runtime could compute split filesystem and network
policies, but the helper would immediately collapse them back to the
compatibility projection before applying seccomp or staging the
bubblewrap inner command.

## What changed

- added hidden `--file-system-sandbox-policy` and
`--network-sandbox-policy` flags alongside the legacy `--sandbox-policy`
flag so the helper can migrate incrementally
- updated the core-side Landlock wrapper to pass the split policies
explicitly when launching `codex-linux-sandbox`
- added helper-side resolution logic that accepts either the legacy
policy alone or a complete split-policy pair and normalizes that into
one effective configuration
- switched Linux helper network decisions to use `NetworkSandboxPolicy`
directly
- added `FromStr` support for the split policy types so the helper can
parse them from CLI JSON

## Verification

- added helper coverage in `linux-sandbox/src/linux_run_main_tests.rs`
for split-policy flags and policy resolution
- added CLI argument coverage in `core/src/landlock.rs`
- verified the current PR state with `just clippy`

bf5c2f48a5 seatbelt: honor split filesystem sandbox policies (#13448)
## Why

After `#13440` and `#13445`, macOS Seatbelt policy generation was still
deriving filesystem and network behavior from the legacy `SandboxPolicy`
projection.

That projection loses explicit unreadable carveouts and conflates split
network decisions, so the generated Seatbelt policy could still be wider
than the split policy that Codex had already computed.

## What changed

- added Seatbelt entrypoints that accept `FileSystemSandboxPolicy` and
`NetworkSandboxPolicy` directly
- built read and write policy stanzas from access roots plus excluded
subpaths so explicit unreadable carveouts survive into the generated
Seatbelt policy
- switched network policy generation to consult `NetworkSandboxPolicy`
directly
- failed closed when managed-network or proxy-constrained sessions do
not yield usable loopback proxy endpoints
- updated the macOS callers and test helpers that now need to carry the
split policies explicitly

## Verification

- added regression coverage in `core/src/seatbelt.rs` for unreadable
carveouts under both full-disk and scoped-readable policies
- verified the current PR state with `just clippy`

e84ee33cc0 Add guardian approval MVP (#13692)
## Summary
- add the guardian reviewer flow for `on-request` approvals in command,
patch, sandbox-retry, and managed-network approval paths
- keep guardian behind `features.guardian_approval` instead of exposing
a public `approval_policy = guardian` mode
- route ordinary `OnRequest` approvals to the guardian subagent when the
feature is enabled, without changing the public approval-mode surface

## Public model
- public approval modes stay unchanged
- guardian is enabled via `features.guardian_approval`
- when that feature is on, `approval_policy = on-request` keeps the same
approval boundaries but sends those approval requests to the guardian
reviewer instead of the user
- `/experimental` only persists the feature flag; it does not rewrite
`approval_policy`
- CLI and app-server no longer expose a separate `guardian` approval
mode in this PR

## Guardian reviewer
- the reviewer runs as a normal subagent and reuses the existing
subagent/thread machinery
- it is locked to a read-only sandbox and `approval_policy = never`
- it does not inherit user/project exec-policy rules
- it prefers `gpt-5.4` when the current provider exposes it, otherwise
falls back to the parent turn's active model
- it fail-closes on timeout, startup failure, malformed output, or any
other review error
- it currently auto-approves only when `risk_score < 80`

## Review context and policy
- guardian mirrors `OnRequest` approval semantics rather than
introducing a separate approval policy
- explicit `require_escalated` requests follow the same approval surface
as `OnRequest`; the difference is only who reviews them
- managed-network allowlist misses that enter the approval flow are also
reviewed by guardian
- the review prompt includes bounded recent transcript history plus
recent tool call/result evidence
- transcript entries and planned-action strings are truncated with
explicit `<guardian_truncated ... />` markers so large payloads stay
bounded
- apply-patch reviews include the full patch content (without
duplicating the structured `changes` payload)
- the guardian request layout is snapshot-tested using the same
model-visible Responses request formatter used elsewhere in core

## Guardian network behavior
- the guardian subagent inherits the parent session's managed-network
allowlist when one exists, so it can use the same approved network
surface while reviewing
- exact session-scoped network approvals are copied into the guardian
session with protocol/port scope preserved
- those copied approvals are now seeded before the guardian's first turn
is submitted, so inherited approvals are available during any immediate
review-time checks

## Out of scope / follow-ups
- the sandbox-permission validation split was pulled into a separate PR
and is not part of this diff
- a future follow-up can enable `serde_json` preserve-order in
`codex-core` and then simplify the guardian action rendering further

5ceff6588e safety: honor filesystem policy carveouts in apply_patch (#13445)
## Why

`apply_patch` safety approval was still checking writable paths through
the legacy `SandboxPolicy` projection.

That can hide explicit `none` carveouts when a split filesystem policy
projects back to compatibility `ExternalSandbox`, which leaves one more
approval path that can auto-approve writes inside paths that are
intentionally blocked.

## What changed

- passed `turn.file_system_sandbox_policy` into `assess_patch_safety`
- changed writable-path checks to derive effective access from
`FileSystemSandboxPolicy` instead of the legacy `SandboxPolicy`
- made those checks reject explicit unreadable roots before considering
broad write access or writable roots
- added regression coverage showing that an `ExternalSandbox`
compatibility projection still asks for approval when the split
filesystem policy blocks a subpath

## Verification

- `cargo test -p codex-core safety::tests::`
- `cargo test -p codex-core test_sandbox_config_parsing`
- `cargo clippy -p codex-core --all-targets -- -D warnings`

22ac6b9aaa sandboxing: plumb split sandbox policies through runtime (#13439)
## Why

`#13434` introduces split `FileSystemSandboxPolicy` and
`NetworkSandboxPolicy`, but the runtime still made most execution-time
sandbox decisions from the legacy `SandboxPolicy` projection.

That projection loses information about combinations like unrestricted
filesystem access with restricted network access. In practice, that
means the runtime can choose the wrong platform sandbox behavior or set
the wrong network-restriction environment for a command even when config
has already separated those concerns.

This PR carries the split policies through the runtime so sandbox
selection, process spawning, and exec handling can consult the policy
that actually matters.

## What changed

- threaded `FileSystemSandboxPolicy` and `NetworkSandboxPolicy` through
`TurnContext`, `ExecRequest`, sandbox attempts, shell escalation state,
unified exec, and app-server exec overrides
- updated sandbox selection in `core/src/sandboxing/mod.rs` and
`core/src/exec.rs` to key off `FileSystemSandboxPolicy.kind` plus
`NetworkSandboxPolicy`, rather than inferring behavior only from the
legacy `SandboxPolicy`
- updated process spawning in `core/src/spawn.rs` and the platform
wrappers to use `NetworkSandboxPolicy` when deciding whether to set
`CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED`
- kept additional-permissions handling and legacy `ExternalSandbox`
compatibility projections aligned with the split policies, including
explicit user-shell execution and Windows restricted-token routing
- updated callers across `core`, `app-server`, and `linux-sandbox` to
pass the split policies explicitly

## Verification

- added regression coverage in `core/tests/suite/user_shell_cmd.rs` to
verify `RunUserShellCommand` does not inherit
`CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED` from the active turn
- added coverage in `core/src/exec.rs` for Windows restricted-token
sandbox selection when the legacy projection is `ExternalSandbox`
- updated Linux sandbox coverage in
`linux-sandbox/tests/suite/landlock.rs` to exercise the split-policy
exec path
- verified the current PR state with `just clippy`

25fa974166 fix: support managed network allowlist controls (#12752)
## Summary
- treat `requirements.toml` `allowed_domains` and `denied_domains` as
managed network baselines for the proxy
- in restricted modes by default, build the effective runtime policy
from the managed baseline plus user-configured allowlist and denylist
entries, so common hosts can be pre-approved without blocking later user
expansion
- add `experimental_network.managed_allowed_domains_only = true` to pin
the effective allowlist to managed entries, ignore user allowlist
additions, and hard-deny non-managed domains without prompting
- apply `managed_allowed_domains_only` anywhere managed network
enforcement is active, including full access, while continuing to
respect denied domains from all sources
- add regression coverage for merged-baseline behavior, managed-only
behavior, and full-access managed-only enforcement

## Behavior
Assuming `requirements.toml` defines both
`experimental_network.allowed_domains` and
`experimental_network.denied_domains`.

### Default mode
- By default, the effective allowlist is
`experimental_network.allowed_domains` plus user or persisted allowlist
additions.
- By default, the effective denylist is
`experimental_network.denied_domains` plus user or persisted denylist
additions.
- Allowlist misses can go through the network approval flow.
- Explicit denylist hits and local or private-network blocks are still
hard-denied.
- When `experimental_network.managed_allowed_domains_only = true`, only
managed `allowed_domains` are respected, user allowlist additions are
ignored, and non-managed domains are hard-denied without prompting.
- Denied domains continue to be respected from all sources.

### Full access
- With managed requirements present, the effective allowlist is pinned
to `experimental_network.allowed_domains`.
- With managed requirements present, the effective denylist is pinned to
`experimental_network.denied_domains`.
- There is no allowlist-miss approval path in full access.
- Explicit denylist hits are hard-denied.
- `experimental_network.managed_allowed_domains_only = true` now also
applies in full access, so managed-only behavior remains in effect
anywhere managed network enforcement is active.

- resolve trust roots by inspecting `.git` entries on disk instead of
spawning `git rev-parse --git-common-dir`
- keep regular repo and linked-worktree trust inheritance behavior
intact
- add a synthetic regression test that proves worktree trust resolution
works without a real git command

## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-core resolve_root_git_project_for_trust`
- `cargo clippy -p codex-core --all-targets -- -D warnings`
- `cargo test -p codex-core` (fails in this environment on unrelated
managed-config `DangerFullAccess` tests in `codex::tests`,
`tools::js_repl::tests`, and `unified_exec::tests`)

8b81284975 fix(core): skip exec approval for permissionless skill scripts (#13791)
## Summary

- Treat skill scripts with no permission profile, or an explicitly empty
one, as permissionless and run them with the turn's existing sandbox
instead of forcing an exec approval prompt.
- Keep the approval flow unchanged for skills that do declare additional
permissions.
- Update the skill approval tests to assert that permissionless skill
scripts do not prompt on either the initial run or a rerun.

## Why

Permissionless skills should inherit the current turn sandbox directly.
Prompting for exec approval in that case adds friction without granting
any additional capability.

289ed549cf chore(otel): rename OtelManager to SessionTelemetry (#13808)
## Summary
This is a purely mechanical refactor of `OtelManager` ->
`SessionTelemetry` to better convey what the struct is doing. No
behavior change.

## Why

`OtelManager` ended up sounding much broader than what this type
actually does. It doesn't manage OTEL globally; it's the session-scoped
telemetry surface for emitting log/trace events and recording metrics
with consistent session metadata (`app_version`, `model`, `slug`,
`originator`, etc.).

`SessionTelemetry` is a more accurate name, and updating the call sites
makes that boundary a lot easier to follow.

## Validation

- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-otel`
- `cargo test -p codex-core`

f82678b2a4 config: add initial support for the new permission profile config language in config.toml (#13434)
## Why

`SandboxPolicy` currently mixes together three separate concerns:

- parsing layered config from `config.toml`
- representing filesystem sandbox state
- carrying basic network policy alongside filesystem choices

That makes the existing config awkward to extend and blocks the new TOML
proposal where `[permissions]` becomes a table of named permission
profiles selected by `default_permissions`. (The idea is that if
`default_permissions` is not specified, we assume the user is opting
into the "traditional" way to configure the sandbox.)

This PR adds the config-side plumbing for those profiles while still
projecting back to the legacy `SandboxPolicy` shape that the current
macOS and Linux sandbox backends consume.

It also tightens the filesystem profile model so scoped entries only
exist for `:project_roots`, and so nested keys must stay within a
project root instead of using `.` or `..` traversal.

This drops support for the short-lived `[permissions.network]` in
`config.toml` because now that would be interpreted as a profile named
`network` within `[permissions]`.

## What Changed

- added `PermissionsToml`, `PermissionProfileToml`,
`FilesystemPermissionsToml`, and `FilesystemPermissionToml` so config
can parse named profiles under `[permissions.<profile>.filesystem]`
- added top-level `default_permissions` selection, validation for
missing or unknown profiles, and compilation from a named profile into
split `FileSystemSandboxPolicy` and `NetworkSandboxPolicy` values
- taught config loading to choose between the legacy `sandbox_mode` path
and the profile-based path without breaking legacy users
- introduced `codex-protocol::permissions` for the split filesystem and
network sandbox types, and stored those alongside the legacy projected
`sandbox_policy` in runtime `Permissions`
- modeled `FileSystemSpecialPath` so only `ProjectRoots` can carry a
nested `subpath`, matching the intended config syntax instead of
allowing invalid states for other special paths
- restricted scoped filesystem maps to `:project_roots`, with validation
that nested entries are non-empty descendant paths and cannot use `.` or
`..` to escape the project root
- kept existing runtime consumers working by projecting
`FileSystemSandboxPolicy` back into `SandboxPolicy`, with an explicit
error for profiles that request writes outside the workspace root
- loaded proxy settings from top-level `[network]`
- regenerated `core/config.schema.json`

## Verification

- added config coverage for profile deserialization,
`default_permissions` selection, top-level `[network]` loading, network
enablement, rejection of writes outside the workspace root, rejection of
nested entries for non-`:project_roots` special paths, and rejection of
parent-directory traversal in `:project_roots` maps
- added protocol coverage for the legacy bridge rejecting non-workspace
writes

## Docs

- update the Codex config docs on developers.openai.com/codex to
document named `[permissions.<profile>]` entries, `default_permissions`,
scoped `:project_roots` syntax, the descendant-path restriction for
nested `:project_roots` entries, and top-level `[network]` proxy
configuration

d6c8186195 Clarify js_repl binding reuse guidance (#13803)
## Summary

Clarify the `js_repl` prompt guidance around persistent bindings and
redeclaration recovery.

This updates the generated `js_repl` instructions in
`core/src/project_doc.rs` to prefer this order when a name is already
bound:

1. Reuse the existing binding
2. Reassign a previously declared `let`
3. Pick a new descriptive name
4. Use `{ ... }` only for short-lived scratch scope
5. Reset the kernel only when a clean state is actually needed

The prompt now also explicitly warns against wrapping an entire cell in
block scope when the goal is to reuse names across later cells.

## Why

The previous wording still left too much room for low-value workarounds
like whole-cell block wrapping. In downstream browser rollouts, that
pattern was adding tokens and preventing useful state reuse across
`js_repl` cells.

This change makes the preferred behavior more explicit without changing
runtime semantics.

## Scope

- Prompt/documentation change only
- No runtime behavior changes
- Updates the matching string-backed `project_doc` tests

39869f7443 fix: move unit tests in codex-rs/core/src/config/mod.rs into their own file (#13780)
At over 7,000 lines, `codex-rs/core/src/config/mod.rs` was getting a bit
unwieldy.

This PR does the same type of move as
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/12957 to put unit tests in their
own file, though I decided `config_tests.rs` is a more intuitive name
than `mod_tests.rs`.

Ultimately, I'll codemod the rest of the codebase to follow suit, but I
want to do it in stages to reduce merge conflicts for people.

8a54d3caaa feat: structured plugin parsing (#13711)
#### What

Add structured `@plugin` parsing and TUI support for plugin mentions.

- Core: switch from plain-text `@display_name` parsing to structured
`plugin://...` mentions via `UserInput::Mention` and
`[$...](plugin://...)` links in text, same pattern as apps/skills.
- TUI: add plugin mention popup, autocomplete, and chips when typing
`$`. Load plugin capability summaries and feed them into the composer;
plugin mentions appear alongside skills and apps.
- Generalize mention parsing to a sigil parameter, still defaults to `$`

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f0fe2658-d908-4927-9139-73f850805ceb"
/>

Builds on #13510. Currently clients have to build their own `id` via
`plugin@marketplace` and filter plugins to show by `enabled`, but we
will add `id` and `available` as fields returned from `plugin/list`
soon.

####Tests

Added tests, verified locally.

0e41a5c4a8 chore: improve DB flushing (#13620)
This branch:
* Avoid flushing DB when not necessary
* Filter events for which we perfom an `upsert` into the DB
* Add a dedicated update function of the `thread:updated_at` that is
lighter

This should significantly reduce the DB lock contention. If it is not
sufficient, we can de-sync the flush of the DB for `updated_at`

3449e00bc9 feat(otel, core): record turn TTFT and TTFM metrics in codex-core (#13630)
### Summary
This adds turn-level latency metrics for the first model output and the
first completed agent message.
- `codex.turn.ttft.duration_ms` starts at turn start and records on the
first output signal we see from the model. That includes normal
assistant text, reasoning deltas, and non-text outputs like tool-call
items.
- `codex.turn.ttfm.duration_ms` also starts at turn start, but it
records when the first agent message finishes streaming rather than when
its first delta arrives.

### Implementation notes
The timing is tracked in codex-core, not app-server, so the definition
stays consistent across CLI, TUI, and app-server clients.

I reused the existing turn lifecycle boundary that already drives
`codex.turn.e2e_duration_ms`, stored the turn start timestamp in turn
state, and record each metric once per turn.

I also wired the new metric names into the OTEL runtime metrics summary
so they show up in the same in-memory/debug snapshot path as the
existing timing metrics.

cb1a182bbe Clarify sandbox permission override helper semantics (#13703)
## Summary
Today `SandboxPermissions::requires_additional_permissions()` does not
actually mean "is `WithAdditionalPermissions`". It returns `true` for
any non-default sandbox override, including `RequireEscalated`. That
broad behavior is relied on in multiple `main` callsites.

The naming is security-sensitive because `SandboxPermissions` is used on
shell-like tool calls to tell the executor how a single command should
relate to the turn sandbox:
- `UseDefault`: run with the turn sandbox unchanged
- `RequireEscalated`: request execution outside the sandbox
- `WithAdditionalPermissions`: stay sandboxed but widen permissions for
that command only

## Problem
The old helper name reads as if it only applies to the
`WithAdditionalPermissions` variant. In practice it means "this command
requested any explicit sandbox override."

That ambiguity made it easy to read production checks incorrectly and
made the guardian change look like a standalone `main` fix when it is
not.

On `main` today:
- `shell` and `unified_exec` intentionally reject any explicit
`sandbox_permissions` request unless approval policy is `OnRequest`
- `exec_policy` intentionally treats any explicit sandbox override as
prompt-worthy in restricted sandboxes
- tests intentionally serialize both `RequireEscalated` and
`WithAdditionalPermissions` as explicit sandbox override requests

So changing those callsites from the broad helper to a narrow
`WithAdditionalPermissions` check would be a behavior change, not a pure
cleanup.

## What This PR Does
- documents `SandboxPermissions` as a per-command sandbox override, not
a generic permissions bag
- adds `requests_sandbox_override()` for the broad meaning: anything
except `UseDefault`
- adds `uses_additional_permissions()` for the narrow meaning: only
`WithAdditionalPermissions`
- keeps `requires_additional_permissions()` as a compatibility alias to
the broad meaning for now
- updates the current broad callsites to use the accurately named broad
helper
- adds unit coverage that locks in the semantics of all three helpers

## What This PR Does Not Do
This PR does not change runtime behavior. That is intentional.

014a59fb0b check app auth in plugin/install (#13685)
#### What
on `plugin/install`, check if installed apps are already authed on
chatgpt, and return list of all apps that are not. clients can use this
list to trigger auth workflows as needed.

checks are best effort based on `codex_apps` loading, much like
`app/list`.

#### Tests
Added integration tests, tested locally.

4c9b1c38f6 fix(tui) remove config check for trusted setting (#11874)
## Summary
Simplify the trusted directory flow. This logic was originally designed
several months ago, to determine if codex should start in read-only or
workspace-write mode. However, that's no longer the purpose of directory
trust - and therefore we should get rid of this logic.

## Testing
