This PR does two things because after I got deep into the first one I
started pulling on the thread to the second:
- Makes `ConversationManager` the place where all in-memory
conversations are created and stored. Previously, `MessageProcessor` in
the `codex-mcp-server` crate was doing this via its `session_map`, but
this is something that should be done in `codex-core`.
- It unwinds the `ctrl_c: tokio::sync::Notify` that was threaded
throughout our code. I think this made sense at one time, but now that
we handle Ctrl-C within the TUI and have a proper `Op::Interrupt` event,
I don't think this was quite right, so I removed it. For `codex exec`
and `codex proto`, we now use `tokio::signal::ctrl_c()` directly, but we
no longer make `Notify` a field of `Codex` or `CodexConversation`.
Changes of note:
- Adds the files `conversation_manager.rs` and `codex_conversation.rs`
to `codex-core`.
- `Codex` and `CodexSpawnOk` are no longer exported from `codex-core`:
other crates must use `CodexConversation` instead (which is created via
`ConversationManager`).
- `core/src/codex_wrapper.rs` has been deleted in favor of
`ConversationManager`.
- `ConversationManager::new_conversation()` returns `NewConversation`,
which is in line with the `new_conversation` tool we want to add to the
MCP server. Note `NewConversation` includes `SessionConfiguredEvent`, so
we eliminate checks in cases like `codex-rs/core/tests/client.rs` to
verify `SessionConfiguredEvent` is the first event because that is now
internal to `ConversationManager`.
- Quite a bit of code was deleted from
`codex-rs/mcp-server/src/message_processor.rs` since it no longer has to
manage multiple conversations itself: it goes through
`ConversationManager` instead.
- `core/tests/live_agent.rs` has been deleted because I had to update a
bunch of tests and all the tests in here were ignored, and I don't think
anyone ever ran them, so this was just technical debt, at this point.
- Removed `notify_on_sigint()` from `util.rs` (and in a follow-up, I
hope to refactor the blandly-named `util.rs` into more descriptive
files).
- In general, I started replacing local variables named `codex` as
`conversation`, where appropriate, though admittedly I didn't do it
through all the integration tests because that would have added a lot of
noise to this PR.

There are two valid ways to create an instance of `CodexAuth`:
`from_api_key()` and `from_codex_home()`. Now both are static methods of
`CodexAuth` and are listed first in the implementation.

Adds a `CodexAuth` type that encapsulates information about available
auth modes and logic for refreshing the token.
Changes `Responses` API to send requests to different endpoints based on
the auth type.
Updates login_with_chatgpt to support API-less mode and skip the key
exchange.
## Summary
Adds a new mcp tool call, `codex-reply`, so we can continue existing
sessions. This is a first draft and does not yet support sessions from
previous processes.
## Testing
- [x] tested with mcp client
This PR introduces support for `-c`/`--config` so users can override
individual config values on the command line using `--config
name=value`. Example:
```
codex --config model=o4-mini
```
Making it possible to set arbitrary config values on the command line
results in a more flexible configuration scheme and makes it easier to
provide single-line examples that can be copy-pasted from documentation.
Effectively, it means there are four levels of configuration for some
values:
- Default value (e.g., `model` currently defaults to `o4-mini`)
- Value in `config.toml` (e.g., user could override the default to be
`model = "o3"` in their `config.toml`)
- Specifying `-c` or `--config` to override `model` (e.g., user can
include `-c model=o3` in their list of args to Codex)
- If available, a config-specific flag can be used, which takes
precedence over `-c` (e.g., user can specify `--model o3` in their list
of args to Codex)
Now that it is possible to specify anything that could be configured in
`config.toml` on the command line using `-c`, we do not need to have a
custom flag for every possible config option (which can clutter the
output of `--help`). To that end, as part of this PR, we drop support
for the `--disable-response-storage` flag, as users can now specify `-c
disable_response_storage=true` to get the equivalent functionality.
Under the hood, this works by loading the `config.toml` into a
`toml::Value`. Then for each `key=value`, we create a small synthetic
TOML file with `value` so that we can run the TOML parser to get the
equivalent `toml::Value`. We then parse `key` to determine the point in
the original `toml::Value` to do the insert/replace. Once all of the
overrides from `-c` args have been applied, the `toml::Value` is
deserialized into a `ConfigToml` and then the `ConfigOverrides` are
applied, as before.
Adds `expect()` as a denied lint. Same deal applies with `unwrap()`
where we now need to put `#[expect(...` on ones that we legit want. Took
care to enable `expect()` in test contexts.

I discovered that I accidentally introduced a change in
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/829 where we load a fresh `Config`
in the middle of `codex.rs`:
c3e10e180a/codex-rs/core/src/codex.rs (L515-L522)
This is not good because the `Config` could differ from the one that has
the user's overrides specified from the CLI. Also, in unit tests, it
means the `Config` was picking up my personal settings as opposed to
using a vanilla config, which was problematic.
This PR cleans things up by moving the common case where
`Op::ConfigureSession` is derived from `Config` (originally done in
`codex_wrapper.rs`) and making it the standard way to initialize `Codex`
by putting it in `Codex::spawn()`. Note this also eliminates quite a bit
of boilerplate from the tests and relieves the caller of the
responsibility of minting out unique IDs when invoking `submit()`.
Some effects of this change:
- New formatting changes across many files. No functionality changes
should occur from that.
- Calls to `set_env` are considered unsafe, since this only happens in
tests we wrap them in `unsafe` blocks
As stated in `codex-rs/README.md`:
Today, Codex CLI is written in TypeScript and requires Node.js 22+ to
run it. For a number of users, this runtime requirement inhibits
adoption: they would be better served by a standalone executable. As
maintainers, we want Codex to run efficiently in a wide range of
environments with minimal overhead. We also want to take advantage of
operating system-specific APIs to provide better sandboxing, where
possible.
To that end, we are moving forward with a Rust implementation of Codex
CLI contained in this folder, which has the following benefits:
- The CLI compiles to small, standalone, platform-specific binaries.
- Can make direct, native calls to
[seccomp](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/seccomp.2.html) and
[landlock](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/landlock.7.html) in
order to support sandboxing on Linux.
- No runtime garbage collection, resulting in lower memory consumption
and better, more predictable performance.
Currently, the Rust implementation is materially behind the TypeScript
implementation in functionality, so continue to use the TypeScript
implmentation for the time being. We will publish native executables via
GitHub Releases as soon as we feel the Rust version is usable.
