fix(app-server): fix approval events in review mode (#10416)
One of our partners flagged that they were seeing the wrong order of
events when running `review/start` with command exec approvals:
```
{"method":"item/commandExecution/requestApproval","id":0,"params":{"threadId":"019c0b6b-6a42-7c02-99c4-98c80e88ac27","turnId":"0","itemId":"0","reason":"`/bin/zsh -lc 'git show b7a92b4eacf262c575f26b1e1ed621a357642e55 --stat'` requires approval: Xcode-required approval: Require explicit user confirmation for all commands.","proposedExecpolicyAmendment":null}}

{"method":"item/started","params":{"item":{"type":"commandExecution","id":"call_AEjlbHqLYNM7kbU3N6uw1CNi","command":"/bin/zsh -lc 'git show b7a92b4eacf262c575f26b1e1ed621a357642e55 --stat'","cwd":"/Users/devingreen/Desktop/SampleProject","processId":null,"status":"inProgress","commandActions":[{"type":"unknown","command":"git show b7a92b4eacf262c575f26b1e1ed621a357642e55 --stat"}],"aggregatedOutput":null,"exitCode":null,"durationMs":null},"threadId":"019c0b6b-6a42-7c02-99c4-98c80e88ac27","turnId":"0"}}
```

**Key fix**: In the review sub‑agent delegate we were forwarding exec
(and patch) approvals using the parent turn id (`parent_ctx.sub_id`) as
the approval call_id. That made
`item/commandExecution/requestApproval.itemId` differ from the actual
`item/started` id. We now forward the sub‑agent’s `call_id` from the
approval event instead, so the approval item id matches the
commandExecution item id in review flows.

Here’s the expected event order for an inline `review/start` that
triggers an exec approval after this fix:
1. Response to review/start (JSON‑RPC response)
- Includes `turn` (status inProgress) and `review_thread_id` (same as
parent thread for inline).
2. `turn/started` notification
  - turnId is the review turn id (e.g., "0").
3. `item/started` → EnteredReviewMode
  - item.id == turnId, marks entry into review mode.
4. `item/started` → commandExecution
  - item.id == <call_id> (e.g., "review-call-1"), status: inProgress.
5. `item/commandExecution/requestApproval` request
  - JSON‑RPC request (not a notification).
  - params.itemId == <call_id> and params.turnId == turnId.
6. Client replies to approval request (Approved / Declined / etc).
7. If approved:
  - Optional `item/commandExecution/outputDelta` notifications.
  - `item/completed` → commandExecution with status and exitCode.
8. Review finishes:
  - `item/started` → ExitedReviewMode
  - `item/completed` → ExitedReviewMode
  - (Agent message items may also appear, depending on review output.)
9. `turn/completed` notification

The key being #4 and #5 are now in the proper order with the correct
item id.

npm i -g @openai/codex
or brew install --cask codex

Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.

Codex CLI splash


If you want Codex in your code editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), install in your IDE.
If you are looking for the cloud-based agent from OpenAI, Codex Web, go to chatgpt.com/codex.


Quickstart

Installing and running Codex CLI

Install globally with your preferred package manager:

# Install using npm
npm install -g @openai/codex
# Install using Homebrew
brew install --cask codex

Then simply run codex to get started.

You can also go to the latest GitHub Release and download the appropriate binary for your platform.

Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these:

  • macOS
    • Apple Silicon/arm64: codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
    • x86_64 (older Mac hardware): codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
  • Linux
    • x86_64: codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
    • arm64: codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz

Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl), so you likely want to rename it to codex after extracting it.

Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan

Run codex and select Sign in with ChatGPT. We recommend signing into your ChatGPT account to use Codex as part of your Plus, Pro, Team, Edu, or Enterprise plan. Learn more about what's included in your ChatGPT plan.

You can also use Codex with an API key, but this requires additional setup.
