- Replace the active models-manager catalog with the deleted core
catalog contents.
- Replace stale hardcoded test model slugs with current bundled model
slugs.
- Keep this as a stacked change on top of the cleanup PR.
Make the morpheus agent (which is the phase 2 memories agent) follow the
agent-v2 path system by naming it `/morpheus`. To maintain the path
primitive this means moving it to a dedicated `AgentControl`

## Summary
- persist registered agent tasks in the session state update stream so
the thread can reuse them
- prewarm task registration once identity registration succeeds, while
keeping startup failures best-effort
- isolate the session-side task lifecycle into a dedicated module so
AgentIdentityManager and RegisteredAgentTask do not leak across as many
core layers
## Testing
- cargo test -p codex-core startup_agent_task_prewarm
- cargo test -p codex-core
cached_agent_task_for_current_identity_clears_stale_task
- cargo test -p codex-core record_initial_history_
# Summary
- implement local ThreadStore archive/unarchive operations
- implement local ThreadStore read_thread operation
- break up the various ThreadStore local method implementations into
separate files
- migrate app-server archive/unarchive and core archive fixture to use
ThreadStore (but not all read operations yet!)
- use the ThreadStore's read operation as a proxy check for thread
persistence/existence in the app server code
- move all other filesystem operations related to archive (path
validation etc) into the local thread store.
# Tests
- add dedicated local store archive/unarchive tests
The rollout writer now keeps an owned/monitored task handle, returns
real Result acks for flush/persist/shutdown, retries failed flushes by
reopening the rollout file, and keeps buffered items until they are
successfully written. Session flushes are now real durability barriers
for fork/rollback/read-after-write paths, while turn completion surfaces
a warning if the rollout still cannot be saved after recovery.
## Summary
This PR adds the parent conversation/session id to the subagent-start
analytics event for Guardian subagents.
Previously, Guardian sessions were emitted as subagent
thread-initialized events, but their `parent_thread_id` was serialized
as `null`. After this change, the `codex_thread_initialized` analytics
event for a Guardian child session includes the parent user conversation
id.
## Summary
App-server v2 already receives turn-scoped `clientMetadata`, but the
Rust app-server was dropping it before the outbound Responses request.
This change keeps the fix lightweight by threading that metadata through
the existing turn-metadata path rather than inventing a new transport.
## What we're trying to do and why
We want turn-scoped metadata from the app-server protocol layer,
especially fields like Hermes/GAAS run IDs, to survive all the way to
the actual Responses API request so it is visible in downstream
websocket request logging and analytics.
The specific bug was:
- app-server protocol uses camelCase `clientMetadata`
- Responses transport already has an existing turn metadata carrier:
`x-codex-turn-metadata`
- websocket transport already rewrites that header into
`request.request_body.client_metadata["x-codex-turn-metadata"]`
- but the Rust app-server never parsed or stored `clientMetadata`, so
nothing from the app-server request was making it into that existing
path
This PR fixes that without adding a new header or a second metadata
channel.
## How we did it
### Protocol surface
- Add optional `clientMetadata` to v2 `TurnStartParams` and
`TurnSteerParams`
- Regenerate the JSON schema / TypeScript fixtures
- Update app-server docs to describe the field and its behavior
### Runtime plumbing
- Add a dedicated core op for app-server user input carrying turn-scoped
metadata: `Op::UserInputWithClientMetadata`
- Wire `turn/start` and `turn/steer` through that op / signature path
instead of dropping the metadata at the message-processor boundary
- Store the metadata in `TurnMetadataState`
### Transport behavior
- Reuse the existing serialized `x-codex-turn-metadata` payload
- Merge the new app-server `clientMetadata` into that JSON additively
- Do **not** replace built-in reserved fields already present in the
turn metadata payload
- Keep websocket behavior unchanged at the outer shape level: it still
sends only `client_metadata["x-codex-turn-metadata"]`, but that JSON
string now contains the merged fields
- Keep HTTP fallback behavior unchanged except that the existing
`x-codex-turn-metadata` header now includes the merged fields too
### Request shape before / after
Before, a websocket `response.create` looked like:
```json
{
"type": "response.create",
"client_metadata": {
"x-codex-turn-metadata": "{\"session_id\":\"...\",\"turn_id\":\"...\"}"
}
}
```
Even if the app-server caller supplied `clientMetadata`, it was not
represented there.
After, the same request shape is preserved, but the serialized payload
now includes the new turn-scoped fields:
```json
{
"type": "response.create",
"client_metadata": {
"x-codex-turn-metadata": "{\"session_id\":\"...\",\"turn_id\":\"...\",\"fiber_run_id\":\"fiber-start-123\",\"origin\":\"gaas\"}"
}
}
```
## Validation
### Targeted tests added / updated
- protocol round-trip coverage for `clientMetadata` on `turn/start` and
`turn/steer`
- protocol round-trip coverage for `Op::UserInputWithClientMetadata`
- `TurnMetadataState` merge test proving client metadata is added
without overwriting reserved built-in fields
- websocket request-shape test proving outbound `response.create`
contains merged metadata inside
`client_metadata["x-codex-turn-metadata"]`
- app-server integration tests proving:
- `turn/start` forwards `clientMetadata` into the outbound Responses
request path
- websocket warmup + real turn request both behave correctly
- `turn/steer` updates the follow-up request metadata

I verified that same failure on a clean detached `HEAD` worktree with an
isolated `CARGO_TARGET_DIR`, so it is not caused by this patch.
## Summary
- reduce public module visibility across Rust crates, preferring private
or crate-private modules with explicit crate-root public exports
- update external call sites and tests to use the intended public crate
APIs instead of reaching through module trees
- add the module visibility guideline to AGENTS.md
## Validation
- `cargo check --workspace --all-targets --message-format=short` passed
before the final fix/format pass
- `just fix` completed successfully
- `just fmt` completed successfully
- `git diff --check` passed
## Description
Add requirements.toml support for `allowed_approvals_reviewers =
["user", "guardian_subagent"]`, so admins can now restrict the use of
guardian mode.
Note: If a user sets a reviewer that isn’t allowed by requirements.toml,
config loading falls back to the first allowed reviewer and emits a
startup warning.
The table below describes the possible admin controls.
| Admin intent | `requirements.toml` | User `config.toml` | End result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leave Guardian optional | omit `allowed_approvals_reviewers` or set
`["user", "guardian_subagent"]` | user chooses `approvals_reviewer =
"user"` or `"guardian_subagent"` | Guardian off for `user`, on for
`guardian_subagent` + `approval_policy = "on-request"` |
| Force Guardian off | `allowed_approvals_reviewers = ["user"]` | any
user value | Effective reviewer is `user`; Guardian off |
| Force Guardian on | `allowed_approvals_reviewers =
["guardian_subagent"]` and usually `allowed_approval_policies =
["on-request"]` | any user reviewer value; user should also have
`approval_policy = "on-request"` unless policy is forced | Effective
reviewer is `guardian_subagent`; Guardian on when effective approval
policy is `on-request` |
| Allow both, but default to manual if user does nothing |
`allowed_approvals_reviewers = ["user", "guardian_subagent"]` | omit
`approvals_reviewer` | Effective reviewer is `user`; Guardian off |
| Allow both, and user explicitly opts into Guardian |
`allowed_approvals_reviewers = ["user", "guardian_subagent"]` |
`approvals_reviewer = "guardian_subagent"` and `approval_policy =
"on-request"` | Guardian on |
| Invalid admin config | `allowed_approvals_reviewers = []` | anything |
Config load error |
- Keep only parent system/developer/user messages plus assistant
final-answer messages in forked child history.
- Strip parent tool/reasoning items and remove the unmatched synthetic
spawn output.
Stacked on #16508.
This removes the temporary `codex-core` / `codex-login` re-export shims
from the ownership split and rewrites callsites to import directly from
`codex-model-provider-info`, `codex-models-manager`, `codex-api`,
`codex-protocol`, `codex-feedback`, and `codex-response-debug-context`.
No behavior change intended; this is the mechanical import cleanup layer
split out from the ownership move.

## Summary
- split `models-manager` out of `core` and add `ModelsManagerConfig`
plus `Config::to_models_manager_config()` so model metadata paths stop
depending on `core::Config`
- move login-owned/auth-owned code out of `core` into `codex-login`,
move model provider config into `codex-model-provider-info`, move API
bridge mapping into `codex-api`, move protocol-owned types/impls into
`codex-protocol`, and move response debug helpers into a dedicated
`response-debug-context` crate
- move feedback tag emission into `codex-feedback`, relocate tests to
the crates that now own the code, and keep broad temporary re-exports so
this PR avoids a giant import-only rewrite
## Major moves and decisions
- created `codex-models-manager` as the owner for model
cache/catalog/config/model info logic, including the new
`ModelsManagerConfig` struct
- created `codex-model-provider-info` as the owner for provider config
parsing/defaults and kept temporary `codex-login`/`codex-core`
re-exports for old import paths
- moved `api_bridge` error mapping + `CoreAuthProvider` into
`codex-api`, while `codex-login::api_bridge` temporarily re-exports
those symbols and keeps the `auth_provider_from_auth` wrapper
- moved `auth_env_telemetry` and `provider_auth` ownership to
`codex-login`
- moved `CodexErr` ownership to `codex-protocol::error`, plus
`StreamOutput`, `bytes_to_string_smart`, and network policy helpers to
protocol-owned modules
- created `codex-response-debug-context` for
`extract_response_debug_context`, `telemetry_transport_error_message`,
and related response-debug plumbing instead of leaving that behavior in
`core`
- moved `FeedbackRequestTags`, `emit_feedback_request_tags`, and
`emit_feedback_request_tags_with_auth_env` to `codex-feedback`
- deferred removal of temporary re-exports and the mechanical import
rewrites to a stacked follow-up PR so this PR stays reviewable
## Test moves
- moved auth refresh coverage from `core/tests/suite/auth_refresh.rs` to
`login/tests/suite/auth_refresh.rs`
- moved text encoding coverage from
`core/tests/suite/text_encoding_fix.rs` to
`protocol/src/exec_output_tests.rs`
- moved model info override coverage from
`core/tests/suite/model_info_overrides.rs` to
`models-manager/src/model_info_overrides_tests.rs`

## Why
`codex-core` was re-exporting APIs owned by sibling `codex-*` crates,
which made downstream crates depend on `codex-core` as a proxy module
instead of the actual owner crate.
Removing those forwards makes crate boundaries explicit and lets leaf
crates drop unnecessary `codex-core` dependencies. In this PR, this
reduces the dependency on `codex-core` to `codex-login` in the following
files:
```
codex-rs/backend-client/Cargo.toml
codex-rs/mcp-server/tests/common/Cargo.toml
```
## What
- Remove `codex-rs/core/src/lib.rs` re-exports for symbols owned by
`codex-login`, `codex-mcp`, `codex-rollout`, `codex-analytics`,
`codex-protocol`, `codex-shell-command`, `codex-sandboxing`,
`codex-tools`, and `codex-utils-path`.
- Delete the `default_client` forwarding shim in `codex-rs/core`.
- Update in-crate and downstream callsites to import directly from the
owning `codex-*` crate.
- Add direct Cargo dependencies where callsites now target the owner
crate, and remove `codex-core` from `codex-rs/backend-client`.
Adds this:
```
properties.insert(
"fork_turns".to_string(),
JsonSchema::String {
description: Some(
"Optional MultiAgentV2 fork mode. Use `none`, `all`, or a positive integer string such as `3` to fork only the most recent turns."
.to_string(),
),
},
);
```

## Why
`argument-comment-lint` was green in CI even though the repo still had
many uncommented literal arguments. The main gap was target coverage:
the repo wrapper did not force Cargo to inspect test-only call sites, so
examples like the `latest_session_lookup_params(true, ...)` tests in
`codex-rs/tui_app_server/src/lib.rs` never entered the blocking CI path.
This change cleans up the existing backlog, makes the default repo lint
path cover all Cargo targets, and starts rolling that stricter CI
enforcement out on the platform where it is currently validated.
## What changed
- mechanically fixed existing `argument-comment-lint` violations across
the `codex-rs` workspace, including tests, examples, and benches
- updated `tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh` and
`tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh` so non-`--fix` runs default to
`--all-targets` unless the caller explicitly narrows the target set
- fixed both wrappers so forwarded cargo arguments after `--` are
preserved with a single separator
- documented the new default behavior in
`tools/argument-comment-lint/README.md`
- updated `rust-ci` so the macOS lint lane keeps the plain wrapper
invocation and therefore enforces `--all-targets`, while Linux and
Windows temporarily pass `-- --lib --bins`
That temporary CI split keeps the stricter all-targets check where it is
already cleaned up, while leaving room to finish the remaining Linux-
and Windows-specific target-gated cleanup before enabling
`--all-targets` on those runners. The Linux and Windows failures on the
intermediate revision were caused by the wrapper forwarding bug, not by
additional lint findings in those lanes.
## Validation
- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh`
- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --lib --bins`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --tests`
- `just argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test` in `tools/argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test -p codex-terminal-detection`
## Follow-up
- Clean up remaining Linux-only target-gated callsites, then switch the
Linux lint lane back to the plain wrapper invocation.
- Clean up remaining Windows-only target-gated callsites, then switch
the Windows lint lane back to the plain wrapper invocation.
Add environment manager that is a singleton and is created early in
app-server (before skill manager, before config loading).
Use an environment variable to point to a running exec server.
## Summary
- move skill loading and management into codex-core-skills
- leave codex-core with the thin integration layer and shared wiring
## Testing
- CI

Migrate `cwd` and related session/config state to `AbsolutePathBuf` so
downstream consumers consistently see absolute working directories.
Add test-only `.abs()` helpers for `Path`, `PathBuf`, and `TempDir`, and
update branch-local tests to use them instead of
`AbsolutePathBuf::try_from(...)`.
For the remaining TUI/app-server snapshot coverage that renders absolute
cwd values, keep the snapshots unchanged and skip the Windows-only cases
where the platform-specific absolute path layout differs.
Make the inter-agent communication start a turn
As part of this, we disable the v2 notifier to prevent some odd
behaviour where the agent restart working while you're talking to it for
example
Show all plugin marketplaces in the /plugins popup by removing the
`openai-curated` marketplace filter, and update plugin popup
copy/tests/snapshots to match the new behavior in both TUI codepaths.
## Summary
- update the self-serve business usage-based limit message to direct
users to their admin for additional credits
- add a focused unit test for the self_serve_business_usage_based plan
branch
Added also:
If you are at a rate limit but you still have credits, codex cli would
tell you to switch the model. We shouldnt do this if you have credits so
fixed this.
## Test
- launched the source-built CLI and verified the updated message is
shown for the self-serve business usage-based plan

Send input now sends messages as assistant message and with this format:
```
author: /root/worker_a
recipient: /root/worker_a/tester
other_recipients: []
Content: bla bla bla. Actual content. Only text for now
```
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
- Split the feature system into a new `codex-features` crate.
- Cut `codex-core` and workspace consumers over to the new config and
warning APIs.
