## Summary
The test exec_resume_last_respects_cwd_filter_and_all_flag makes one
session “newest” by resuming it, but rollout updated_at is stored/sorted
at second precision. On fast CI (especially Windows), the touch could
land in the same second as initial session creation, making ordering
nondeterministic.
This change adds a short sleep before the recency-touch step so the
resumed session is guaranteed to have a later updated_at, preserving the
intended assertion without changing product behavior.
## Summary
Persist network approval allow/deny decisions as `network_rule(...)`
entries in execpolicy (not proxy config)
It adds `network_rule` parsing + append support in `codex-execpolicy`,
including `decision="prompt"` (parse-only; not compiled into proxy
allow/deny lists)
- compile execpolicy network rules into proxy allow/deny lists and
update the live proxy state on approval
- preserve requirements execpolicy `network_rule(...)` entries when
merging with file-based execpolicy
- reject broad wildcard hosts (for example `*`) for persisted
`network_rule(...)`
## Why
After removing `exec-server`, the next step is to wire a new shell tool
to `codex-rs/shell-escalation` directly.
That is blocked while `codex-shell-escalation` depends on `codex-core`,
because the new integration would require `codex-core` to depend on
`codex-shell-escalation` and create a dependency cycle.
This change ports the reusable pieces from the earlier prep work, but
drops the old compatibility shim because `exec-server`/MCP support is
already gone.
## What Changed
### Decouple `shell-escalation` from `codex-core`
- Introduce a crate-local `SandboxState` in `shell-escalation`
- Introduce a `ShellCommandExecutor` trait so callers provide process
execution/sandbox integration
- Update `EscalateServer::exec(...)` and `run_escalate_server(...)` to
use the injected executor
- Remove the direct `codex_core::exec::process_exec_tool_call(...)` call
from `shell-escalation`
- Remove the `codex-core` dependency from `codex-shell-escalation`
### Restore reusable policy adapter exports
- Re-enable `unix::core_shell_escalation`
- Export `ShellActionProvider` and `ShellPolicyFactory` from
`shell-escalation`
- Keep the crate root API simple (no `legacy_api` compatibility layer)
### Port socket fixes from the earlier prep commit
- Use `socket2::Socket::pair_raw(...)` for AF_UNIX socketpairs and
restore `CLOEXEC` explicitly on both endpoints
- Keep `CLOEXEC` cleared only on the single datagram client FD that is
intentionally passed across `exec`
- Clean up `tokio::AsyncFd::try_io(...)` error handling in the socket
helpers
## Verification
- `cargo shear`
- `cargo clippy -p codex-shell-escalation --tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-shell-escalation`
## Why
We already plan to remove the shell-tool MCP path, and doing that
cleanup first makes the follow-on `shell-escalation` work much simpler.
This change removes the last remaining reason to keep
`codex-rs/exec-server` around by moving the `codex-execve-wrapper`
binary and shared shell test fixtures to the crates/tests that now own
that functionality.
## What Changed
### Delete `codex-rs/exec-server`
- Remove the `exec-server` crate, including the MCP server binary,
MCP-specific modules, and its test support/test suite
- Remove `exec-server` from the `codex-rs` workspace and update
`Cargo.lock`
### Move `codex-execve-wrapper` into `codex-rs/shell-escalation`
- Move the wrapper implementation into `shell-escalation`
(`src/unix/execve_wrapper.rs`)
- Add the `codex-execve-wrapper` binary entrypoint under
`shell-escalation/src/bin/`
- Update `shell-escalation` exports/module layout so the wrapper
entrypoint is hosted there
- Move the wrapper README content from `exec-server` to
`shell-escalation/README.md`
### Move shared shell test fixtures to `app-server`
- Move the DotSlash `bash`/`zsh` test fixtures from
`exec-server/tests/suite/` to `app-server/tests/suite/`
- Update `app-server` zsh-fork tests to reference the new fixture paths
### Keep `shell-tool-mcp` as a shell-assets package
- Update `.github/workflows/shell-tool-mcp.yml` packaging so the npm
artifact contains only patched Bash/Zsh payloads (no Rust binaries)
- Update `shell-tool-mcp/package.json`, `shell-tool-mcp/src/index.ts`,
and docs to reflect the shell-assets-only package shape
- `shell-tool-mcp-ci.yml` does not need changes because it is already
JS-only
## Verification
- `cargo shear`
- `cargo clippy -p codex-shell-escalation --tests`
- `just clippy`

## Summary
This fixes a TUI race (https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/11008)
where pressing Enter with Steer enabled while the assistant is still
streaming the final answer could put Codex into a non-recoverable
“running” state (no further prompts handled until exiting and resuming).
## Root Cause
In steer mode, `InputResult::Submitted` could submit immediately even
while a final-answer stream was active. That immediate submission races
with turn completion and can strand turn state.
## Fix
When handling `InputResult::Submitted`, we now queue instead of
immediate-submit if a final-answer stream is active
(`stream_controller.is_some()`).
This keeps behavior deterministic:
- Prompt is preserved in the queue.
- `on_task_complete()` drains queued input through
`maybe_send_next_queued_input()`.
- Follow-up prompts continue in FIFO order after completion.
## Why this resolves the “dead mode”
The problematic timing window is now converted into queueing, so prompts
entered during final streaming are not lost and are processed after the
current output ends. The model continues handling prompts normally
without requiring `/quit` + `resume`.
## Tests
Added regression coverage in `tui/src/chatwidget/tests.rs`:
- `steer_enter_queues_while_final_answer_stream_is_active`
- `steer_enter_during_final_stream_preserves_follow_up_prompts_in_order`
Both fail on old behavior and pass with this fix.
## Summary
- Replace the `panic!` in `map_owned_wrapped_line_to_range` with a
recoverable flow that skips synthetic leading characters, logs a warning
on mid-line mismatch, and returns the mapped prefix range instead of
crashing
- Fixes a crash when `textwrap` produces owned lines with synthetic
indent prefixes (e.g. non-space indents via
`initial_indent`/`subsequent_indent`)
## Test plan
- [x] Added unit test for direct mismatch recovery
(`map_owned_wrapped_line_to_range_recovers_on_non_prefix_mismatch`)
- [x] Added end-to-end `wrap_ranges` test with non-space indents that
forces owned wrapped lines and validates full source reconstruction
- [x] Verify no regressions in existing `wrapping.rs` tests (`cargo test
-p codex-tui`)
## Why
Tool handlers and runtimes needed to pass the same turn/session context
for shell and non-shell workflows without duplicative ownership churn.
Using shared pointers avoids temporary lifetimes and keeps existing
behavior unchanged while simplifying call sites.
## What changed
- Converted `ToolCtx` to store shared context handles (`Arc`-based),
including updates across shell, apply-patch, and unified-exec paths.
- Updated orchestrator/runtime call sites to consume the shared context
consistently and remove brittle move/borrow patterns.
- Kept behavior unchanged while preparing the type surface for the new
shell escalation integration in the next stack commit.
## Verification
- Validated this commit stack point with `just clippy` and confirmed
workspace compiles cleanly in this stack state.

## Why
Shell execution refactoring in `exec-server` had become split between
duplicated code paths, which blocked a clean introduction of the new
reusable shell escalation flow. This commit creates a dedicated
foundation crate so later shell tooling changes can share one
implementation.
## What changed
- Added the `codex-shell-escalation` crate and moved the core escalation
pieces (`mcp` protocol/socket/session flow, policy glue) that were
previously in `exec-server` into it.
- Normalized `exec-server` Unix structure under a dedicated `unix`
module layout and kept non-Unix builds narrow.
- Wired crate/build metadata so `shell-escalation` is a first-class
workspace dependency for follow-on integration work.
## Verification
- Built and linted the stack at this commit point with `just clippy`.

## Summary
Improve Bazel CI failure diagnostics by printing the tail of each failed
target’s test.log directly in the GitHub Actions output.
Today, when a large Bazel test target fails (for example tests of
`codex-core`), the workflow often only shows a target-level Exit 101
plus a path to Bazel’s test.log. That makes it hard to see the actual
failing Rust test and panic without digging into artifacts or
reproducing locally.
This change makes the workflow automatically surface that information
inline.
## What Changed
In .github/workflows/bazel.yml:
- Capture Bazel console output via tee
- Preserve the Bazel exit code when piping (PIPESTATUS[0])
- On failure:
- Parse failed Bazel test targets from FAIL: //... lines
- Resolve Bazel test log directory via bazel info bazel-testlogs
- Print tail -n 200 for each failed target’s test.log
- Group each target’s output in GitHub Actions logs (::group::)
## Bonus
Disable `experimental_remote_repo_contents_cache` to prevent "Permission
Denied"
Summary
- mark `output-last-message` as a global exec flag so it can follow
subcommands like `resume`
- add regression tests in both `cli` and `exec` crates verifying the
flag order works when invoking `resume`
Fixes#12538
## Why
The current escalate path in `codex-rs/exec-server` still had policy
creation coupled to MCP details, which makes it hard to reuse the shell
execution flow outside the MCP server. This change is part of a broader
goal to split MCP-specific behavior from shared escalation execution so
other handlers (for example a future `ShellCommandHandler`) can reuse it
without depending on MCP request context types.
## What changed
- Added a new `EscalationPolicyFactory` abstraction in `mcp.rs`:
- `crate`-relative path: `codex-rs/exec-server/src/posix/mcp.rs`
-
https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/exec-server/src/posix/mcp.rs#L87-L107
- Made `run_escalate_server` in `mcp.rs` accept a policy factory instead
of constructing `McpEscalationPolicy` directly.
-
https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/exec-server/src/posix/mcp.rs#L178-L201
- Introduced `McpEscalationPolicyFactory` that stores MCP-only state
(`RequestContext`, `preserve_program_paths`) and implements the new
trait.
-
https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/exec-server/src/posix/mcp.rs#L100-L117
- Updated `shell()` to pass a `McpEscalationPolicyFactory` instance into
`run_escalate_server`, so the server remains the MCP-specific wiring
layer.
-
https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/exec-server/src/posix/mcp.rs#L163-L170
## Verification
- Build and test execution was not re-run in this pass; changes are
limited to `mcp.rs` and preserve the existing escalation flow semantics
by only extracting policy construction behind a factory.

## Why
The zsh integration tests were still brittle in two ways:
- they relied on `CODEX_TEST_ZSH_PATH` / environment-specific setup, so
they often did not exercise the patched zsh fork that `shell-tool-mcp`
ships
- once the tests consistently used the vendored zsh fork, they exposed
real Linux-specific zsh-fork issues in CI
In particular, the Linux failures were not just test noise:
- the zsh-fork launch path was dropping `ExecRequest.arg0`, so Linux
`codex-linux-sandbox` arg0 dispatch did not run and zsh wrapper-mode
could receive malformed arguments
- the
`turn_start_shell_zsh_fork_subcommand_decline_marks_parent_declined_v2`
test uses the zsh exec bridge (which talks to the parent over a Unix
socket), but Linux restricted sandbox seccomp denies `connect(2)`,
causing timeouts on `ubuntu-24.04` x86/arm
This PR makes the zsh tests consistently run against the intended
vendored zsh fork and fixes/hardens the zsh-fork path so the Linux CI
signal is meaningful.
## What Changed
- Added a single shared test-only DotSlash file for the patched zsh fork
at `codex-rs/exec-server/tests/suite/zsh` (analogous to the existing
`bash` test resource).
- Updated both app-server and exec-server zsh tests to use that shared
DotSlash zsh (no duplicate zsh DotSlash file, no `CODEX_TEST_ZSH_PATH`
dependency).
- Updated the app-server zsh-fork test helper to resolve the shared
DotSlash zsh and avoid silently falling back to host zsh.
- Kept the app-server zsh-fork tests configured via `config.toml`, using
a test wrapper path where needed to force `zsh -df` (and rewrite `-lc`
to `-c`) for the subcommand-decline test.
- Hardened the app-server subcommand-decline zsh-fork test for CI
variability:
- tolerate an extra `/responses` POST with a no-op mock response
- tolerate non-target approval ordering while remaining strict on the
two `/usr/bin/true` approvals and decline behavior
- use `DangerFullAccess` on Linux for this one test because it validates
zsh approval flow, not Linux sandbox socket restrictions
- Fixed zsh-fork process launching on Linux by preserving `req.arg0` in
`ZshExecBridge::execute_shell_request(...)` so `codex-linux-sandbox`
arg0 dispatch continues to work.
- Moved `maybe_run_zsh_exec_wrapper_mode()` under
`arg0_dispatch_or_else(...)` in `app-server` and `cli` so wrapper-mode
handling coexists correctly with arg0-dispatched helper modes.
- Consolidated duplicated `dotslash -- fetch` resolution logic into
shared test support (`core/tests/common/lib.rs`).
- Updated `codex-rs/exec-server/tests/suite/accept_elicitation.rs` to
use DotSlash zsh and hardened the zsh elicitation test for Bazel/zsh
differences by:
- resolving an absolute `git` path
- running `git init --quiet .`
- asserting success / `.git` creation instead of relying on banner text
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server turn_start_zsh_fork -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-exec-server accept_elicitation -- --nocapture`
- `bazel test //codex-rs/exec-server:exec-server-all-test
--test_output=streamed --test_arg=--nocapture
--test_arg=accept_elicitation_for_prompt_rule_with_zsh`
- CI (`rust-ci`) on the final cleaned commit: `Tests — ubuntu-24.04 -
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` and `Tests — ubuntu-24.04-arm -
aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu` passed in [run
22291424358](https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/22291424358)
## PR Notes
This PR adds a project-scoped `babysit-pr` skill for ongoing PR
monitoring (CI, reviews, mergeability).
Simply invoke this skill after creating a PR, and codex will do its best
to get it to a mergeable state:
### What the skill does
* Fixes CI failures related to the PR
* Retries CI failures due to flaky tests
* Addresses code review comments if it agrees with them
* Addresses merge conflicts on main branch
### How the skill works
- Polls PR status on a loop (CI checks, workflow runs, review activity,
mergeability, and review decision).
- Detects new review feedback (including inline comments and automated
Codex review comments) and prompts/handles follow-up work.
- Distinguishes pending vs failed vs passed CI and identifies likely
flaky failures.
- Can retry failed checks/workflows when appropriate.
- Prioritizes actionable code review feedback over flaky CI retries (to
avoid rerunning CI on a SHA that is about to be replaced).
- Continues monitoring after fixes are applied and pushed, rather than
stopping after a progress update.
- Uses a slower backoff polling cadence once CI is green, while still
watching for new review feedback or state changes.
- Treats required review/approval as a blocking condition and keeps
watching until the PR is actually merge-ready (or merged/closed, or
human intervention is needed).
### Intended outcome
Keep the PR moving with minimal manual babysitting by continuously
watching for CI failures, reviewer feedback, and merge blockers, and
responding in the right order until the PR is ready to merge.
Summary
- map csharp/c-sharp aliases to the existing C# syntax in the highlight
matcher
- ensure the extension list and tests include .cs and the new aliases so

## Summary
- order bundled and custom themes together by name while keeping entries
stable across platforms
- update the theme fixture names and tests to assert case-insensitive
ordering
Alt-d should delete the next word. It didn’t. Now it does. Added a small
test so it stays that way.
Details:
File updated:
[codex-rs/tui/src/bottom_pane/textarea.rs](./codex-rs/tui/src/bottom_pane/textarea.rs)
Test added: delete_forward_word_alt_d — verifies Alt-d deletes the next
word and keeps the cursor position correct.
Solves Issue #12453
Summary
- distinguish exec end handling targets (active tracking, active orphan
history, new cell) so unified exec responses don’t clobber unrelated
exploring cells
- ensure orphan ends flush existing exploring history when complete,
insert standalone history entries, and keep active cells correct
- add regression tests plus a snapshot covering the new behavior and
expose the ExecCell completion result for verification

- keep the per-thread app-server listener alive when the last client
unsubscribes or disconnects
- preserve listener-side active turn history so running `thread/resume`
can merge an in-progress turn snapshot after reconnect
- add `ThreadStateManager` regressions for disconnect/unsubscribe
retention and explicit thread teardown cleanup
Added unit tests, and I manually tested to confirm the fix

## Summary
Adds syntax highlighting to the TUI for fenced code blocks in markdown
responses and file diffs, plus a `/theme` command with live preview and
persistent theme selection. Uses syntect (~250 grammars, 32 bundled
themes, ~1 MB binary cost) — the same engine behind `bat`, `delta`, and
`xi-editor`. Includes guardrails for large inputs, graceful fallback to
plain text, and SSH-aware clipboard integration for the `/copy` command.

## Problem
Code blocks in the TUI (markdown responses and file diffs) render
without syntax highlighting, making it hard to scan code at a glance.
Users also have no way to pick a color theme that matches their terminal
aesthetic.
## Mental model
The highlighting system has three layers:
1. **Syntax engine** (`render::highlight`) -- a thin wrapper around
syntect + two-face. It owns a process-global `SyntaxSet` (~250 grammars)
and a `RwLock<Theme>` that can be swapped at runtime. All public entry
points accept `(code, lang)` and return ratatui `Span`/`Line` vectors or
`None` when the language is unrecognized or the input exceeds safety
guardrails.
2. **Rendering consumers** -- `markdown_render` feeds fenced code blocks
through the engine; `diff_render` highlights Add/Delete content as a
whole file and Update hunks per-hunk (preserving parser state across
hunk lines). Both callers fall back to plain unstyled text when the
engine returns `None`.
3. **Theme lifecycle** -- at startup the config's `tui.theme` is
resolved to a syntect `Theme` via `set_theme_override`. At runtime the
`/theme` picker calls `set_syntax_theme` to swap themes live; on cancel
it restores the snapshot taken at open. On confirm it persists `[tui]
theme = "..."` to config.toml.
## Non-goals
- Inline diff highlighting (word-level change detection within a line).
- Semantic / LSP-backed highlighting.
- Theme authoring tooling; users supply standard `.tmTheme` files.
## Tradeoffs
| Decision | Upside | Downside |
| ------------------------------------------------ |
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| syntect over tree-sitter / arborium | ~1 MB binary increase for ~250
grammars + 32 themes; battle-tested crate powering widely-used tools
(`bat`, `delta`, `xi-editor`). tree-sitter would add ~12 MB for 20-30
languages or ~35 MB for full coverage. | Regex-based; less structurally
accurate than tree-sitter for some languages (e.g. language injections
like JS-in-HTML). |
| Global `RwLock<Theme>` | Enables live `/theme` preview without
threading Theme through every call site | Lock contention risk
(mitigated: reads vastly outnumber writes, single UI thread) |
| Skip background / italic / underline from themes | Terminal BG
preserved, avoids ugly rendering on some themes | Themes that rely on
these properties lose fidelity |
| Guardrails: 512 KB / 10k lines | Prevents pathological stalls on huge
diffs or pastes | Very large files render without color |
## Architecture

Key files:
- `tui/src/render/highlight.rs` -- engine, theme management, guardrails
- `tui/src/diff_render.rs` -- syntax-aware diff line wrapping
- `tui/src/theme_picker.rs` -- `/theme` command builder
- `tui/src/bottom_pane/list_selection_view.rs` -- side content panel,
callbacks
- `core/src/config/types.rs` -- `Tui::theme` field
- `core/src/config/edit.rs` -- `syntax_theme_edit()` helper
## Observability
- `tracing::warn` when a configured theme name cannot be resolved.
- `Config::startup_warnings` surfaces the same message as a TUI banner.
- `tracing::error` when persisting theme selection fails.
## Tests
- Unit tests in `highlight.rs`: language coverage, fallback behavior,
CRLF stripping, style conversion, guardrail enforcement, theme name
mapping exhaustiveness.
- Unit tests in `diff_render.rs`: snapshot gallery at multiple terminal
sizes (80x24, 94x35, 120x40), syntax-highlighted wrapping, large-diff
guardrail, rename-to-different-extension highlighting, parser state
preservation across hunk lines.
- Unit tests in `theme_picker.rs`: preview rendering (wide + narrow),
dim overlay on deletions, subtitle truncation, cancel-restore, fallback
for unavailable configured theme.
- Unit tests in `list_selection_view.rs`: side layout geometry, stacked
fallback, buffer clearing, cancel/selection-changed callbacks.
- Integration test in `lib.rs`: theme warning uses the final
(post-resume) config.
## Cargo Deny: Unmaintained Dependency Exceptions
This PR adds two `cargo deny` advisory exceptions for transitive
dependencies pulled in by `syntect v5.3.0`:
| Advisory | Crate | Status |
|----------|-------|--------|
| RUSTSEC-2024-0320 | `yaml-rust` | Unmaintained (maintainer
unreachable) |
| RUSTSEC-2025-0141 | `bincode` | Unmaintained (development ceased;
v1.3.3 considered complete) |
**Why this is safe in our usage:**
- Neither advisory describes a known security vulnerability. Both are
"unmaintained" notices only.
- `bincode` is used by syntect to deserialize pre-compiled syntax sets.
Again, these are **static vendored artifacts** baked into the binary at
build time. No user-supplied bincode data is ever deserialized. - Attack
surface is zero for both crates; exploitation would require a
supply-chain compromise of our own build artifacts.
- These exceptions can be removed when syntect migrates to `yaml-rust2`
and drops `bincode`, or when alternative crates are available upstream.
robust to Nix shell paths (#12476)
## Summary
- Updated `codex-rs/core/src/shell.rs` tests for shell detection to stop
asserting hardcoded shell paths.
- `detects_bash` and `detects_sh` now assert executable basenames
(`bash`, `sh`) rather than `/bin/*`/`/usr/bin/*` absolute paths.
- This keeps behavior the same while avoiding failures in Nix
environments where shells are resolved from `/nix/store/.../bin`.
## Testing
- `nix develop .#default --command sh -lc 'export
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/nix/store/6az1q591wwlgazzskngr6rl7gmhpyvnc-libcap-2.77-dev/lib/pkgconfig:/nix/store/fgm3pz8486ksh3f94629lpb7xjr2wjp7-openssl-3.6.0-dev/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH;
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH_FOR_TARGET=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH; cd
/home/alex/workspace/openai/codex/codex-rs && cargo test -p codex-core
--lib detects_bash && cargo test -p codex-core --lib detects_sh'`
## Why
The two failing tests previously hardcoded fixed paths and failed under
the Nix shell due to Nix-provided shell binary locations.
## Links
- Bug report / enhancement request: not publicly filed yet; this was
reproduced in the local Nix environment.
## Why
`codex-core::all` has a flaky test,
`suite::realtime_conversation::conversation_start_audio_text_close_round_trip`,
that assumes a fixed ordering between `conversation.item.create` and
`response.input_audio.delta` requests.
That ordering is not guaranteed: realtime text and audio input are
forwarded through separate queues and a background task, so either
request can be observed first while still being correct behavior.
## What Changed
- Updated the assertion in
`codex-rs/core/tests/suite/realtime_conversation.rs` to compare the two
observed request types order-independently.
- Kept the existing checks that `session.create` is sent first and that
exactly two follow-up requests are recorded.
## Verification
- Re-ran `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
conversation_start_audio_text_close_round_trip` 10 times locally.
