We decided that `*.rules` is a more fitting (and concise) file extension
than `*.codexpolicy`, so we are changing the file extension for the
"execpolicy" effort. We are also changing the subfolder of `$CODEX_HOME`
from `policy` to `rules` to match.
This PR updates the in-repo docs and we will update the public docs once
the next CLI release goes out.
Locally, I created `~/.codex/rules/default.rules` with the following
contents:
```
prefix_rule(pattern=["gh", "pr", "view"])
```
And then I asked Codex to run:
```
gh pr view 7888 --json title,body,comments
```
and it was able to!
When I originally introduced `accept_elicitation_for_prompt_rule()` in
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/7617, it worked for me locally
because I had run `codex-rs/exec-server/tests/suite/bash` once myself,
which had the side-effect of installing the corresponding DotSlash
artifact.
In CI, I added explicit logic to do this as part of
`.github/workflows/rust-ci.yml`, which meant the test also passed in CI,
but this logic should have been done as part of the test so that it
would work locally for devs who had not installed the DotSlash artifact
for `codex-rs/exec-server/tests/suite/bash` before. This PR updates the
test to do this (and deletes the setup logic from `rust-ci.yml`),
creating a new `DOTSLASH_CACHE` in a temp directory so that this is
handled independently for each test.
While here, also added a check to ensure that the `codex` binary has
been built prior to running the test, as we have to ensure it is
symlinked as `codex-linux-sandbox` on Linux in order for the integration
test to work on that platform.
This PR introduces integration tests that run
[codex-shell-tool-mcp](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@openai/codex-shell-tool-mcp)
as a user would. Note that this requires running our fork of Bash, so we
introduce a [DotSlash](https://dotslash-cli.com/) file for `bash` so
that we can run the integration tests on multiple platforms without
having to check the binaries into the repository. (As noted in the
DotSlash file, it is slightly more heavyweight than necessary, which may
be worth addressing as disk space in CI is limited:
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/7678.)
To start, this PR adds two tests:
- `list_tools()` makes the `list_tools` request to the MCP server and
verifies we get the expected response
- `accept_elicitation_for_prompt_rule()` defines a `prefix_rule()` with
`decision="prompt"` and verifies the elicitation flow works as expected
Though the `accept_elicitation_for_prompt_rule()` test **only works on
Linux**, as this PR reveals that there are currently issues when running
the Bash fork in a read-only sandbox on Linux. This will have to be
fixed in a follow-up PR.
Incidentally, getting this test run to correctly on macOS also requires
a recent fix we made to `brew` that hasn't hit a mainline release yet,
so getting CI green in this PR required
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/7680.
