## Why
Developers are frequently running low on disk space, and routine use of
`--all-features` contributes to larger Cargo build caches in `target/`
by compiling additional feature combinations.
This change updates local workflow guidance to avoid `--all-features` by
default and reserve it for cases where full feature coverage is
specifically needed.
## What Changed
- Updated `AGENTS.md` guidance for `codex-rs` to recommend `cargo test`
/ `just test` for full-suite local runs, and to call out the disk-usage
cost of routine `--all-features` usage.
- Updated the root `justfile` so `just fix` and `just clippy` no longer
pass `--all-features` by default.
- Updated `docs/install.md` to explicitly describe `cargo test
--all-features` as an optional heavier-weight run (more build time and
`target/` disk usage).
## Verification
- Confirmed the `justfile` parses and the recipes list successfully with
`just --list`.
## Why this change
When Cargo dependencies change, it is easy to end up with an unexpected
local diff in
`MODULE.bazel.lock` after running Bazel. That creates noisy working
copies and pushes lockfile fixes
later in the cycle. This change addresses that pain point directly.
## What this change enforces
The expected invariant is: after dependency updates, `MODULE.bazel.lock`
is already in sync with
Cargo resolution. In practice, running `bazel mod deps` should not
mutate the lockfile in a clean
state. If it does, the dependency update is incomplete.
## How this is enforced
This change adds a single lockfile check script that snapshots
`MODULE.bazel.lock`, runs
`bazel mod deps`, and fails if the file changes. The same check is wired
into local workflow
commands (`just bazel-lock-update` and `just bazel-lock-check`) and into
Bazel CI (Linux x86_64 job)
so drift is caught early and consistently. The developer documentation
is updated in
`codex-rs/docs/bazel.md` and `AGENTS.md` to make the expected flow
explicit.
`MODULE.bazel.lock` is also refreshed in this PR to match the current
Cargo dependency resolution.
## Expected developer workflow
After changing `Cargo.toml` or `Cargo.lock`, run `just
bazel-lock-update`, then run
`just bazel-lock-check`, and include any resulting `MODULE.bazel.lock`
update in the same change.
## Testing
Ran `just bazel-lock-check` locally.
Adding a `--experimental` flag to the `generate-ts` fct in the
app-sever.
It can be called through one of those 2 command
```
just write-app-server-schema --experimental
codex app-server generate-ts --experimental
```
Similar to what @sayan-oai did in openai/codex#8956 for
`config.schema.json`, this PR updates the repo so that it includes the
output of `codex app-server generate-json-schema` and `codex app-server
generate-ts` and adds a test to verify it is in sync with the current
code.
Motivation:
- This makes any schema changes introduced by a PR transparent during
code review.
- In particular, this should help us catch PRs that would introduce a
non-backwards-compatible change to the app schema (eventually, this
should also be enforced by tooling).
- Once https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/10231 is in to formalize the
notion of "experimental" fields, we can work on ensuring the
non-experimental bits are backwards-compatible.
`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/tests/schema_fixtures.rs` was added as the
test and `just write-app-server-schema` can be use to generate the
vendored schema files.
Incidentally, when I run:
```
rg _ codex-rs/app-server-protocol/schema/typescript/v2
```
I see a number of `snake_case` names that should be `camelCase`.
```
just log -h
if [ "${1:-}" = "--" ]; then shift; fi; cargo run -p codex-state --bin logs_client -- "$@"
Finished `dev` profile [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.21s
Running `target/debug/logs_client -h`
Tail Codex logs from state.sqlite with simple filters
Usage: logs_client [OPTIONS]
Options:
--codex-home <CODEX_HOME> Path to CODEX_HOME. Defaults to $CODEX_HOME or ~/.codex [env: CODEX_HOME=]
--db <DB> Direct path to the SQLite database. Overrides --codex-home
--level <LEVEL> Log level to match exactly (case-insensitive)
--from <RFC3339|UNIX> Start timestamp (RFC3339 or unix seconds)
--to <RFC3339|UNIX> End timestamp (RFC3339 or unix seconds)
--module <MODULE> Substring match on module_path
--file <FILE> Substring match on file path
--backfill <BACKFILL> Number of matching rows to show before tailing [default: 200]
--poll-ms <POLL_MS> Poll interval in milliseconds [default: 500]
-h, --help Print help
```
This is less straightforward than I realized, so created an entry for
this in our `justfile`.
Verified that running `just bazel-codex` from anywhere in the repo uses
the user's `$PWD` as the one to run Codex.
While here, updated the `MODULE.bazel.lock`, though it looks like I need
to add a CI job that runs `bazel mod deps --lockfile_mode=error` or
something.
### What
Add JSON Schema generation for `config.toml`, with checked‑in
`docs/config.schema.json`. We can move the schema elsewhere if preferred
(and host it if there's demand).
Add fixture test to prevent drift and `just write-config-schema` to
regenerate on schema changes.
Generate MCP config schema from `RawMcpServerConfig` instead of
`McpServerConfig` because that is the runtime type used for
deserialization.
Populate feature flag values into generated schema so they can be
autocompleted.
### Tests
Added tests + regenerate script to prevent drift. Tested autocompletions
using generated jsonschema locally with Even Better TOML.

This PR configures Codex CLI so it can be built with
[Bazel](https://bazel.build) in addition to Cargo. The `.bazelrc`
includes configuration so that remote builds can be done using
[BuildBuddy](https://www.buildbuddy.io).
If you are familiar with Bazel, things should work as you expect, e.g.,
run `bazel test //... --keep-going` to run all the tests in the repo,
but we have also added some new aliases in the `justfile` for
convenience:
- `just bazel-test` to run tests locally
- `just bazel-remote-test` to run tests remotely (currently, the remote
build is for x86_64 Linux regardless of your host platform). Note we are
currently seeing the following test failures in the remote build, so we
still need to figure out what is happening here:
```
failures:
suite::compact::manual_compact_twice_preserves_latest_user_messages
suite::compact_resume_fork::compact_resume_after_second_compaction_preserves_history
suite::compact_resume_fork::compact_resume_and_fork_preserve_model_history_view
```
- `just build-for-release` to build release binaries for all
platforms/architectures remotely
To setup remote execution:
- [Create a buildbuddy account](https://app.buildbuddy.io/) (OpenAI
employees should also request org access at
https://openai.buildbuddy.io/join/ with their `@openai.com` email
address.)
- [Copy your API key](https://app.buildbuddy.io/docs/setup/) to
`~/.bazelrc` (add the line `build
--remote_header=x-buildbuddy-api-key=YOUR_KEY`)
- Use `--config=remote` in your `bazel` invocations (or add `common
--config=remote` to your `~/.bazelrc`, or use the `just` commands)
## CI
In terms of CI, this PR introduces `.github/workflows/bazel.yml`, which
uses Bazel to run the tests _locally_ on Mac and Linux GitHub runners
(we are working on supporting Windows, but that is not ready yet). Note
that the failures we are seeing in `just bazel-remote-test` do not occur
on these GitHub CI jobs, so everything in `.github/workflows/bazel.yml`
is green right now.
The `bazel.yml` uses extra config in `.github/workflows/ci.bazelrc` so
that macOS CI jobs build _remotely_ on Linux hosts (using the
`docker://docker.io/mbolin491/codex-bazel` Docker image declared in the
root `BUILD.bazel`) using cross-compilation to build the macOS
artifacts. Then these artifacts are downloaded locally to GitHub's macOS
runner so the tests can be executed natively. This is the relevant
config that enables this:
```
common:macos --config=remote
common:macos --strategy=remote
common:macos --strategy=TestRunner=darwin-sandbox,local
```
Because of the remote caching benefits we get from BuildBuddy, these new
CI jobs can be extremely fast! For example, consider these two jobs that
ran all the tests on Linux x86_64:
- Bazel 1m37s
https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/20861063212/job/59940545209?pr=8875
- Cargo 9m20s
https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/20861063192/job/59940559592?pr=8875
For now, we will continue to run both the Bazel and Cargo jobs for PRs,
but once we add support for Windows and running Clippy, we should be
able to cutover to using Bazel exclusively for PRs, which should still
speed things up considerably. We will probably continue to run the Cargo
jobs post-merge for commits that land on `main` as a sanity check.
Release builds will also continue to be done by Cargo for now.

## Summary
- move the workspace justfile to the repository root for easier
discovery
- set the just working directory to codex-rs so existing recipes still
run in the Rust workspace
## Testing
- not run (not requested)
