- Moved the unix-only suspend/resume logic into a dedicated job_control
module housing SuspendContext, replacing scattered cfg-gated fields and
helpers in tui.rs.
- Tui now holds a single suspend_context (Arc-backed) instead of
multiple atomics, and the event stream uses it directly for Ctrl-Z
handling.
- Added detailed docs around the suspend/resume flow, cursor tracking,
and the Arc/atomic ownership model for the 'static event stream.
- Renamed the process-level SIGTSTP helper to suspend_process and the
cursor tracker to set_cursor_y to better reflect their roles.
## Summary
- log and surface clipboard failures instead of silently ignoring them
when `Ctrl+V` pastes an image (`paste_image_to_temp_png()` now feeds an
error history cell)
- enable `arboard`’s `wayland-data-control` feature so native Wayland
sessions can deliver image data without XWayland
- keep the success path unchanged: valid images still attach and show
the `[image …]` placeholder as before
Fixes#4818

## Summary
- add a `hide_rate_limit_model_nudge` notice flag plus config edit
plumbing so the rate limit reminder preference is persisted and
documented
- extend the chat widget prompt with a "never show again" option, and
wire new app events so selecting it hides future nudges immediately and
writes the config
- add unit coverage and refresh the snapshot for the three-option prompt
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `just fix -p codex-tui`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui`
- `cargo test -p codex-core` *(fails at
`exec::tests::kill_child_process_group_kills_grandchildren_on_timeout`:
grandchild process still alive)*

[Codex
Task](https://chatgpt.com/codex/tasks/task_i_6910d7f407748321b2661fc355416994)
I recently fixed a bug in [this
PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/6285) that prevented Ctrl+C
from dismissing the login menu in the TUI and leaving the user unauthed.
A [user pointed out](https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/6418) that
this makes Ctrl+C can no longer be used to exit the app. This PR changes
the behavior so we exit the app rather than ignoring the Ctrl+C.
3 improvements:
1. show up to 3 actual paths that are world-writable
2. do the scan/warning for Read-Only mode too, because it also applies
there
3. remove the "Cancel" option since it doesn't always apply (like on
startup)
Shows single-key shortcuts (y, a, n) next to approval options to make
them more discoverable. Previously these shortcuts worked but were
hidden, making the feature hard to discover.
Changes:
- "Yes, proceed" now shows "y" shortcut
- "Yes, and don't ask again" now shows "a" shortcut
- "No, and tell Codex..." continues to show "esc" shortcut
This improves UX by surfacing the quick keyboard shortcuts that were
already functional but undiscoverable in the UI.

Update:
added parentheses for better visual clarity

1. scan many more directories since it's much faster than the original
implementation
2. limit overall scan time to 2s
3. skip some directories that are noisy - ApplicationData, Installer,
etc.
Removes flush logic that was leftover to test against ratatui's flush
Cleaned up the flush logic so it's a bit more intent revealing.
DrawCommand now owns the Cells that it draws as this works around a
borrow checker problem.
Show a warning when Auto Sandbox mode becomes enabled, if we detect
Everyone-writable directories, since they cannot be protected by the
current implementation of the Sandbox.
This PR also includes changes to how we detect Everyone-writable to be
*much* faster
We currently allow the user to dismiss the login menu via Ctrl+C. This
leaves them in a bad state where they're not auth'ed but have an input
prompt. In the extension, this isn't a problem because we don't allow
the user to dismiss the login screen.
Testing: I confirmed that Ctrl+C no longer dismisses the login menu.
This is an alternative (simpler) fix for a [community
PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/3234).
- introduce RenderableItem to support both owned and borrowed children
in composite Renderables
- refactor some of our gnarlier manual layouts, BottomPane and
ChatWidget, to use ColumnRenderable
- Renderable and friends now handle cursor_pos()
## Summary
- replace the word part enum with a simple `is_word_separator` helper
- keep word-boundary logic aligned with the helper and punctuation-aware
behavior
- extend forward/backward deletion tests to cover whitespace around
separators
## Testing
- just fix -p codex-tui
- cargo test -p codex-tui

This value is used to determine whether mid-turn compaction is required.
Reasoning items are only excluded between turns (and soon will start to
be preserved even across turns) so it's incorrect to subtract
reasoning_output_tokens mid term.
This will result in higher values reported between turns but we are also
looking into preserving reasoning items for the entire conversation to
improve performance and caching.
Hi OpenAI Codex team, currently "Visit chatgpt.com/codex/settings/usage
for up-to-date information on rate limits and credits" message in status
card and error messages. For now, without the "https://" prefix, the
link cannot be clicked directly from most terminals or chat interfaces.

The fix is intent to improve this issue:
- It makes the link clickable in terminals that support it, hence better
accessibility
- It follows standard URL formatting practices
- It maintains consistency with other links in the application (like the
existing "https://openai.com/chatgpt/pricing" links)
Thank you!
* Removed sandbox risk categories; feedback indicates that these are not
that useful and "less is more"
* Tweaked the assessment prompt to generate terser answers
* Fixed bug in orchestrator that prevents this feature from being
exposed in the extension
## What?
Fixed error handling in `insert_history_lines_to_writer` where all
terminal operations were silently ignoring errors via `.ok()`.
## Why?
Silent I/O failures could leave the terminal in an inconsistent state
(e.g., scroll region not reset) with no way to debug. This violates Rust
error handling best practices.
## How?
- Changed function signature to return `io::Result<()>`
- Replaced all `.ok()` calls with `?` operator to propagate errors
- Added `tracing::warn!` in wrapper function for backward compatibility
- Updated 15 test call sites to handle Result with `.expect()`
## Testing
- ✅ Pass all tests
## Type of Change
- [x] Bug fix (non-breaking change)

## Summary
- add the `/exit` slash command alongside `/quit` and reuse shared exit
handling
- refactor the chat widget to funnel quit, exit, logout, and shutdown
flows through a common `request_exit` helper
- add focused unit tests that confirm both `/quit` and `/exit` send an
`ExitRequest`
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `just fix -p codex-tui`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui`

- Added the new codex-windows-sandbox crate that builds both a library
entry point (run_windows_sandbox_capture) and a CLI executable to launch
commands inside a Windows restricted-token sandbox, including ACL
management, capability SID provisioning, network lockdown, and output
capture
(windows-sandbox-rs/src/lib.rs:167, windows-sandbox-rs/src/main.rs:54).
- Introduced the experimental WindowsSandbox feature flag and wiring so
Windows builds can opt into the sandbox:
SandboxType::WindowsRestrictedToken, the in-process execution path, and
platform sandbox selection now honor the flag (core/src/features.rs:47,
core/src/config.rs:1224, core/src/safety.rs:19,
core/src/sandboxing/mod.rs:69, core/src/exec.rs:79,
core/src/exec.rs:172).
- Updated workspace metadata to include the new crate and its
Windows-specific dependencies so the core crate can link against it
(codex-rs/
Cargo.toml:91, core/Cargo.toml:86).
- Added a PowerShell bootstrap script that installs the Windows
toolchain, required CLI utilities, and builds the workspace to ease
development
on the platform (scripts/setup-windows.ps1:1).
- Landed a Python smoke-test suite that exercises
read-only/workspace-write policies, ACL behavior, and network denial for
the Windows sandbox
binary (windows-sandbox-rs/sandbox_smoketests.py:1).
There's still some debate about whether we want to expose
`tools.view_image` or `feature.view_image` so those are left unchanged
for now, but this old `include_view_image_tool` config is good-to-go.
Also updated the doc to reflect that `view_image` tool is now by default
true.
## Summary
- add a debug-only `/rollout` slash command that prints the rollout file
path or reports when none is known
- surface the new command in the slash command metadata and cover it
with unit tests

The goal is to have a single place where we actually write files
In a follow-up PR, will move everything config related in a dedicated
module and move the helpers in a dedicated file
feature: Add "!cmd" user shell execution
This change lets users run local shell commands directly from the TUI by
prefixing their input with ! (e.g. !ls). Output is truncated to keep the
exec cell usable, and Ctrl-C cleanly
interrupts long-running commands (e.g. !sleep 10000).
**Summary of changes**
- Route Op::RunUserShellCommand through a dedicated UserShellCommandTask
(core/src/tasks/user_shell.rs), keeping the task logic out of codex.rs.
- Reuse the existing tool router: the task constructs a ToolCall for the
local_shell tool and relies on ShellHandler, so no manual MCP tool
lookup is required.
- Emit exec lifecycle events (ExecCommandBegin/ExecCommandEnd) so the
TUI can show command metadata, live output, and exit status.
**End-to-end flow**
**TUI handling**
1. ChatWidget::submit_user_message (TUI) intercepts messages starting
with !.
2. Non-empty commands dispatch Op::RunUserShellCommand { command };
empty commands surface a help hint.
3. No UserInput items are created, so nothing is enqueued for the model.
**Core submission loop**
4. The submission loop routes the op to handlers::run_user_shell_command
(core/src/codex.rs).
5. A fresh TurnContext is created and Session::spawn_user_shell_command
enqueues UserShellCommandTask.
**Task execution**
6. UserShellCommandTask::run emits TaskStartedEvent, formats the
command, and prepares a ToolCall targeting local_shell.
7. ToolCallRuntime::handle_tool_call dispatches to ShellHandler.
**Shell tool runtime**
8. ShellHandler::run_exec_like launches the process via the unified exec
runtime, honoring sandbox and shell policies, and emits
ExecCommandBegin/End.
9. Stdout/stderr are captured for the UI, but the task does not turn the
resulting ToolOutput into a model response.
**Completion**
10. After ExecCommandEnd, the task finishes without an assistant
message; the session marks it complete and the exec cell displays the
final output.
**Conversation context**
- The command and its output never enter the conversation history or the
model prompt; the flow is local-only.
- Only exec/task events are emitted for UI rendering.
**Demo video**

This fixes an issue where messages sent during the final response stream
would seem to disappear, because the "queued messages" UI wasn't shown
during streaming.
This PR is a follow-up to #5591. It allows users to choose which auth
storage mode they want by using the new
`cli_auth_credentials_store_mode` config.
## Summary
- Coerce Windows `workspace-write` configs back to read-only, surface
the forced downgrade in the approvals popup,
and funnel users toward WSL or Full Access.
- Add WSL installation instructions to the Auto preset on Windows while
keeping the preset available for other
platforms.
- Skip the trust-on-first-run prompt on native Windows so new folders
remain read-only without additional
confirmation.
- Expose a structured sandbox policy resolution from config to flag
Windows downgrades and adjust tests (core,
exec, TUI) to reflect the new behavior; provide a Windows-only approvals
snapshot.
