## Why
Plugin manifests use the same schema whether the package lives on the
host or in an executor. Only the path representation differs: host
callers need native `Path` inputs and `AbsolutePathBuf` outputs, while
executor callers need `PathUri` throughout.
Maintaining separate parsing or resolver implementations would duplicate
the manifest rules and allow them to drift. This PR instead makes
URI-native resolution the single parsing path and keeps host conversion
at the boundary.
## What changed
- Make `parse_plugin_manifest_uri` the shared manifest parser and
resolve every path-bearing field as `PathUri`.
- Keep the existing host entrypoint as a thin adapter: convert its
native root and manifest path to `PathUri`, run the shared parser, then
map resources back to `AbsolutePathBuf`.
- Expose `PluginManifest::try_map_resources` so callers can convert the
generic resource type without duplicating manifest construction.
- Resolve relative manifest paths using the root URI's convention:
backslashes are separators for Windows roots and ordinary filename
characters for POSIX roots.
- Apply lexical containment after URI resolution, rejecting absolute
paths and parent traversal outside the plugin root.
- Make encoded backslashes fail containment only for Windows URIs;
encoded `/` remains unsafe for every convention.
- Use a host-native synthetic root for marketplace fallback manifests so
the host adapter also works on Windows.
```text
host Path --------> PathUri --\
+--> one manifest parser --> PluginManifest<PathUri>
executor PathUri -------------/
host result: PluginManifest<PathUri> --> PluginManifest<AbsolutePathBuf>
```
Existing host manifest behavior is preserved; #28918 is the first
executor consumer.
## Verification
- `just test -p codex-utils-path-uri`
- `just test -p codex-plugin`
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins`
## Stack
1. #29614 — add lexical `PathUri` containment.
2. **This PR** — share URI-native manifest path resolution.
3. #28918 — keep selected plugin roots and resources URI-native.
4. #29626 — load executor skills without host path conversion.
5. #29628 — resolve executor MCP working directories without host path
conversion.
Adds additive dark-mode plugin logo metadata across manifests, remote
catalogs, and the app-server protocol while keeping uninstalled Git
listings free of synthetic local paths.
Supersedes #28945. This replacement uses an upstream branch so trusted
CI can use the repository-provided remote Bazel configuration.
## Current state
Plugin interfaces expose only the default logo asset. Clients therefore
cannot select a dedicated dark-mode logo even when a plugin provides
one.
## What this PR changes
- Adds nullable `logoDark` and `logoUrlDark` fields to
`PluginInterface`.
- Resolves local `interface.logoDark` assets and maps remote
`logo_url_dark` values.
- Removes path-backed interface assets, including `logoDark`, from
uninstalled Git fallback listings until the plugin has a real local
root.
- Updates the bundled plugin validator and manifest reference.
- Regenerates the app-server JSON schemas and TypeScript types.
Local manifests expose `interface.logoDark` as a package-relative asset
path. Remote catalog responses expose `logo_url_dark`. These values map
into separate app-server fields so clients can preserve local-path and
remote-URL handling.
## Risk
The fields are additive and nullable, so existing clients retain their
current logo behavior. The main risks are an incomplete mapping path or
exposing a synthetic local path for an uninstalled Git plugin.
Local-manifest, remote-catalog, fallback-listing, protocol
serialization, and app-server integration tests cover those paths.
Spiciness: 2/5
## Testing
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `just fmt`
- Regression test first failed with `logo_dark` resolved to
`/assets/logo-dark.png`, then passed after the fallback-listing fix.
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins` (267 tests passed)
- `just test -p codex-app-server 'suite::v2::plugin'` (114 tests passed)
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol -p codex-core-plugins -p
codex-plugin -p codex-skills` (517 tests passed before the follow-up)
- `just test -p codex-tui plugin` (47 tests passed)
- Validated a local plugin manifest containing `interface.logoDark` with
the bundled validator.
## Manual verification
Create a local plugin with both `interface.logo` and
`interface.logoDark`, then call `plugin/list` or `plugin/read`. Confirm
the response contains separate `logo` and `logoDark` paths. For a remote
catalog entry, confirm `logoUrlDark` is populated from `logo_url_dark`.
For an uninstalled Git marketplace entry, confirm path-backed interface
assets remain absent until installation.
Issue: N/A - coordinated maintainer change.
## Summary
Support marketplace plugins whose source directory does not include a
discoverable plugin manifest. Metadata-rich `marketplace.json` entries
now act as fallback plugin manifests for listing, local detail reads,
install, and non-curated cache refresh.
The fallback preserves marketplace-entry plugin fields wholesale, then
adds the small Codex-facing compatibility bridge for presentation
metadata. A real source `plugin.json` always wins when present.
## Details
- Capture flattened marketplace-entry fields into
`MarketplacePluginManifestFallback`, preserving fields such as
`version`, `description`, `skills`, `mcpServers`, `apps`, `hooks`,
`agents`, `commands`, `strict`, `author`, and future manifest fields
without a per-field translation list.
- Bridge Claude-style top-level `displayName`, `author.name`,
`homepage`, and marketplace `category` into Codex's nested `interface`
fields only when the nested values are absent.
- Treat fallback metadata as installable only when the marketplace entry
contributes metadata beyond bare `name` and `source`; existing
missing-manifest behavior remains for metadata-free entries.
- Read local plugin details from the already parsed fallback manifest,
including fallback-declared app and MCP paths, instead of rereading only
an on-disk manifest.
- Pass fallback contents into `PluginStore`, which validates them and
injects `.codex-plugin/plugin.json` into Store's existing atomic copy.
Local marketplace source directories are never mutated, and the fallback
path no longer needs an additional staging directory.
- Keep Git source materialization unchanged; Git clones still use the
existing marketplace source staging area before Store installation.
## Why
`built_tools` runs for every sampling request, and local plugin
discovery was repeatedly rereading plugin manifests, skills, MCP
configuration, and app declarations to build the same tool-suggest
metadata.
That source-derived metadata is stable until the existing plugin manager
reloads its cache. Runtime eligibility still needs to reflect the
current install, disable, policy, app-overlap, and authentication state.
## What changed
- Add a bounded, in-memory tool-suggest metadata cache owned by
`PluginsManager`.
- Key cached metadata by plugin identity and source, while applying
authentication routing each time the metadata is projected.
- Invalidate the metadata alongside the existing loaded-plugin cache,
including its normal configuration, marketplace refresh, and
remote-installed-plugin invalidation paths.
- Guard against an in-flight load repopulating stale metadata after
invalidation.
- Keep marketplace membership and all runtime eligibility filtering live
rather than introducing a separate catalog or revision model.
## Impact
Repeated sampling requests reuse already-loaded plugin capability
metadata while retaining the existing plugin-manager lifecycle as the
single freshness boundary.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins` — 252 passed
- Added focused coverage for cache invalidation and authentication
reprojection.
## Summary
- allow local marketplace `source.path: "."` and `source.path: "./"` to
resolve to the marketplace root
- keep `""` invalid and preserve rejection of non-root paths without
`./` plus non-normal/traversal paths
- add focused regression coverage for repo-root plugin layouts and
rejected local paths
## Tests
- `RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN=stable just fmt`
- `RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN=stable just test -p codex-core-plugins`
- `RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN=stable just fix -p codex-core-plugins`
Note: plain pinned-toolchain `just fmt` was blocked locally by a rustup
`clippy` component conflict, so validation used the working stable 1.95
toolchain fallback.
## Summary
- choose the local OpenAI curated marketplace manifest based on auth:
Codex backend auth gets the existing marketplace, direct provider auth
gets `api_marketplace.json`
- include Bedrock API key auth in the direct-provider API marketplace
path
- safely skip the API marketplace when `api_marketplace.json` is absent
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check origin/main...HEAD`
- CI should run the full validation
## Manual Testing
### - New api marketplace not available for API key sign
1. Safely not display anything from api marketplace

/>
### - New api marketplace for API key sign in
1. Setup api_marketplace.json
```
{
"name": "openai-curated",
"interface": {
"displayName": "Codex official"
},
"plugins": [
{
"name": "linear",
"source": {
"source": "local",
"path": "./plugins/linear"
},
"policy": {
"installation": "AVAILABLE",
"authentication": "ON_INSTALL"
},
"category": "Productivity"
}
]
}
```
2. Log in with API key, observe that only the defined plugin from
api_marketplace.json is available from "Codex Official" (outside of
local testing marketplaces)

/>
also checked functionality on codex app
## Notes
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins` was started locally before splitting
branches, but I stopped relying on local tests per follow-up and left
final validation to PR CI.
Curated plugin startup refresh now removes cached plugins whose names no
longer appear in the raw openai-curated marketplace. This prevents users
with the old standalone Google Sheets plugin selected locally from
continuing to load its stale cache after the curated repo drops it.
Existing config is left untouched, and plugins still present in the
marketplace continue to refresh from local curated sources.
Validation:
- `just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins`
- `git diff --check`
Adds plugin/share/checkout to turn a shared remote plugin into a local
working copy under ~/plugins/<name>.
Registers the copy in the managed personal marketplace and records the
remote-to-local mapping for later share/save flows.

- Adds localVersion to plugin summaries and remoteVersion to share
context, including generated API schemas.
- Hydrates local and remote plugin versions from manifests and remote
release metadata.
- Adds default-on plugin_sharing gate for shared-with-me listing and
plugin/share/save, with disabled-path errors
and focused coverage.
## Summary
- Add plugin manifest keywords to core plugin marketplace/detail models
- Expose keywords on app-server v2 PluginSummary and generated
schema/types
- Populate keywords in plugin/list and plugin/read responses for local
plugins
Depends on https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/891087
## Validation
- just fmt
- just write-app-server-schema
- cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol

## Summary
- add first-class marketplace support for git-backed plugin sources
- keep the newer marketplace parsing behavior from `main`, including
alternate manifest locations and string local sources
- materialize remote plugin sources during install, detail reads, and
non-curated cache refresh
- expose git plugin source metadata through the app-server protocol
## Details
This teaches the marketplace parser to accept all of the following:
- local string sources such as `"source": "./plugins/foo"`
- local object sources such as
`{"source":"local","path":"./plugins/foo"}`
- remote repo-root sources such as
`{"source":"url","url":"https://github.com/org/repo.git"}`
- remote subdir sources such as
`{"source":"git-subdir","url":"owner/repo","path":"plugins/foo","ref":"main","sha":"..."}`
It also preserves the newer tolerant behavior from `main`: invalid or
unsupported plugin entries are skipped instead of breaking the whole
marketplace.
## Validation
- `cargo test -p codex-core plugins::marketplace::tests`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `just fmt`
## Notes
- A full `cargo test -p codex-core` run still hit unrelated existing
failures in agent and multi-agent tests during this session; the
marketplace-focused suite passed after the rebase resolution.
Load plugin manifests through a shared discoverable-path helper so
manifest reads, installs, and skill names all see the same alternate
manifest location.
Split plugin loading, marketplace, and related infrastructure out of
core into codex-core-plugins, while keeping the core-facing
configuration and orchestration flow in codex-core.
