For better caching performance all output items should be rendered in
the order they were produced before all new input items (for example,
all function_call before all function_call_output).
For app-server development it's been helpful to be able to trigger some
test flows end-to-end and print the JSON-RPC messages sent between
client and server.
## Summary
- add an `env` option for the TypeScript Codex client and plumb it into
`CodexExec` so the CLI can run without inheriting `process.env`
- extend the test spy to capture spawn environments, add coverage for
the new option, and document how to use it
## Testing
- `pnpm test` *(fails: corepack cannot download pnpm because outbound
network access is blocked in the sandbox)*

## Summary
- default the `tui.notifications` setting to enabled so desktop
notifications work out of the box
- update configuration tests and documentation to reflect the new
default
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-core` *(fails:
`exec::tests::kill_child_process_group_kills_grandchildren_on_timeout`
is flaky in this sandbox because the spawned grandchild process stays
alive)*
- `cargo test -p codex-core
exec::tests::kill_child_process_group_kills_grandchildren_on_timeout`
*(fails: same sandbox limitation as above)*

## Summary
- add `TestCodex::submit_turn_with_policies` and extend the response
helpers with reusable tool-call utilities
- update the grep_files, read_file, list_dir, shell_serialization, and
tools suites to rely on the shared helpers instead of local copies
- make the list_dir helper return `anyhow::Result` so clippy no longer
warns about `expect`
## Testing
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
suite::grep_files::grep_files_tool_collects_matches`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
suite::grep_files::grep_files_tool_collects_matches -- --ignored`
(filter requests ignored tests so nothing runs, but the build stays
clean)

## Summary
- replace the bespoke network check in the chat completion payload and
SSE tests with the existing `skip_if_no_network!` helper so they follow
the same gating convention as the rest of the suite
## Testing

A partner is consuming our generated JSON schema bundle for app-server
and identified a few issues:
- not all polymorphic / one-of types have a type descriminator
- `"$ref": "#/definitions/v2/SandboxPolicy"` is missing
- "Option<>" is an invalid schema name, and also unnecessary
This PR:
- adds the type descriminator to the various types that are missing it
except for `SessionSource` and `SubAgentSource` because they are
serialized to disk (adding this would break backwards compat for
resume), and they should not be necessary to consume for an integration
with app-server.
- removes the special handling in `export.rs` of various types like
SandboxPolicy, which turned out to be unnecessary and incorrect
- filters out `Option<>` which was auto-generated for request params
that don't need a body
For context, we currently pull in wayyy more types than we need through
the `EventMsg` god object which we are **not** planning to expose in API
v2 (this is how I suspect `SessionSource` and `SubAgentSource` are being
pulled in). But until we have all the necessary v2 notifications in
place that will allow us to remove `EventMsg`, we will keep exporting it
for now.
core event to app server event mapping:
1. `codex/event/reasoning_content_delta` ->
`item/reasoning/summaryTextDelta`.
2. `codex/event/reasoning_raw_content_delta` ->
`item/reasoning/textDelta`
3. `codex/event/agent_message_content_delta` →
`item/agentMessage/delta`.
4. `codex/event/agent_reasoning_section_break` ->
`item/reasoning/summaryPartAdded`.
Also added a change in core to pass down content index, summary index
and item id from events.
Tested with the `git checkout owen/app_server_test_client && cargo run
-p codex-app-server-test-client -- send-message-v2 "hello"` and verified
that new events are emitted correctly.
## Summary
Consolidates our apply_patch tests into one suite, and ensures each test
case tests the various ways the harness supports apply_patch:
1. Freeform custom tool call
2. JSON function tool
3. Simple shell call
4. Heredoc shell call
There are a few test cases that are specific to a particular variant,
I've left those alone.
## Testing
- [x] This adds a significant number of tests
## Summary
Adds support for specifying additional directories in the TypeScript SDK
through a new `additionalDirectories` option in `ThreadOptions`.
## Changes
- Added `additionalDirectories` parameter to `ThreadOptions` interface
- Updated `CodexExec` to accept and pass through additional directories
via the `--config` flag for `sandbox_workspace_write.writable_roots`
- Added comprehensive test coverage for the new functionality
## Test plan
- Added test case that verifies `additionalDirectories` is correctly
passed as repeated flags
- Existing tests continue to pass

## Summary
Adds AbortSignal support to the TypeScript SDK for canceling thread
execution using AbortController.
## Changes
- Add `signal?: AbortSignal` property to `TurnOptions` type
- Pass signal through Thread class methods to exec layer
- Add signal parameter to `CodexExecArgs`
- Leverage Node.js native `spawn()` signal support for automatic
cancellation
- Add comprehensive test coverage (6 tests covering all abort scenarios)
## Implementation
The implementation uses Node.js's built-in AbortSignal support in
`spawn()` (available since Node v15, SDK requires >=18), which
automatically handles:
- Checking if already aborted before starting
- Killing the child process when abort is triggered
- Emitting appropriate error events
- All cleanup operations
This is a one-line change to the core implementation (`signal:
args.signal` passed to spawn), making it simple, reliable, and
maintainable.
## Usage Example
```typescript
import { Codex } from '@openai/codex-sdk';
const codex = new Codex({ apiKey: 'your-api-key' });
const thread = codex.startThread();
// Create AbortController
const controller = new AbortController();
// Run with abort signal
const resultPromise = thread.run("Your prompt here", {
signal: controller.signal
});
// Cancel anytime
controller.abort('User requested cancellation');
```
## Testing
All tests pass (23 total across SDK):
- ✅ Aborts when signal is already aborted (both run and runStreamed)
- ✅ Aborts during execution/iteration
- ✅ Completes normally when not aborted
- ✅ Backward compatible (signal is optional)
Tests verified to fail correctly when signal support is removed (no
false positives).

This fixes command display for unified exec. All `cd`s and `ls`es are
now parsed.

Previously the popup measured rows using the full content width while
the renderer drew them with 2 columns of padding, so at certain widths
the layout allocated too little vertical space and hid the third option.
Now both desired_height and render call a shared helper that subtracts
the padding before measuring, so the height we reserve always matches
what we draw and the menu doesn't drops entries.

We've received many reports of codex hanging when calling certain tools.
[Here](https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/3204) is one example. This
is likely a major cause. The problem occurs when
`consume_truncated_output` waits for `stdout` and `stderr` to be closed
once the child process terminates. This normally works fine, but it
doesn't handle the case where the child has spawned grandchild processes
that inherits `stdout` and `stderr`.
The fix was originally written by @md-oai in [this
PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/1852), which has gone stale.
I've copied the original fix (which looks sound to me) and added an
integration test to prevent future regressions.
- Introducing a screen to inform users of model changes.
- Config name is being passed to be able to reuse this component in the
future for future models
This updates `thread/resume` to be at parity with v1's
`ResumeConversationParams`. Turns out history is useful for codex cloud
and path is useful for the VSCode extension. And config overrides are
always useful.
This PR addresses https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/6360. The root
problem is that the TUI was directly loading the `auth.json` file to
access the auth information. It should instead be using the AuthManager,
which records the current auth information. The `auth.json` file can be
overwritten at any time by other instances of the CLI or extension, so
its information can be out of sync with the current instance. The
`/status` command should always report the auth information associated
with the current instance.
An alternative fix for this bug was submitted by @chojs23 in [this
PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/6495). That approach was only a
partial fix.
This is important to ensure that this:
```
codex --enable unified_exec
```
and this:
```
codex --config features.unified_exec=true
```
are equivalent. Also that when it is passed programmatically:
807e2c27f0/codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v1.rs (L55)
then this should work for `config`:
```json
{"features": {"shell_command_tool": true}}
```
though I believe also this:
```json
{"features.shell_command_tool": true}
```
