## Why
`app/list` emits `app/list/updated` after whichever async load finishes
first (directory connectors or accessible tools). This test assumed the
directory-backed update always arrived first because it injected a tools
delay, but that assumption is not stable when the process-global Codex
Apps tools cache is already warm. In that case the accessible-tools path
can return immediately and the first notification shape flips, which
makes the assertion flaky.
Relevant code paths:
-
[`codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs`](13ec97d72e/codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs (L4949-L5034))
(concurrent loads + per-load `app/list/updated` notifications)
-
[`codex-rs/core/src/mcp_connection_manager.rs`](13ec97d72e/codex-rs/core/src/mcp_connection_manager.rs (L1182-L1197))
(Codex Apps tools cache hit path)
## What Changed
Updated
`suite::v2::app_list::list_apps_returns_connectors_with_accessible_flags`
in `codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/app_list.rs` to accept either
valid first `app/list/updated` payload:
- the directory-first snapshot
- the accessible-tools-first snapshot
The test still keeps the later assertions strict:
- the second `app/list/updated` notification must be the fully merged
result
- the final `app/list` response must match the same merged result
I also added an inline comment explaining why the first notification is
intentionally order-insensitive.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server`
