**Summary**
- Adds `model_verbosity` config (values: low, medium, high).
- Sends `text.verbosity` only for GPT‑5 family models via the Responses
API.
- Updates docs and adds serialization tests.
**Motivation**
- GPT‑5 introduces a verbosity control to steer output length/detail
without pro
mpt surgery.
- Exposing it as a config knob keeps prompts stable and makes behavior
explicit
and repeatable.
**Changes**
- Config:
- Added `Verbosity` enum (low|medium|high).
- Added optional `model_verbosity` to `ConfigToml`, `Config`, and
`ConfigProfi
le`.
- Request wiring:
- Extended `ResponsesApiRequest` with optional `text` object.
- Populates `text.verbosity` only when model family is `gpt-5`; omitted
otherw
ise.
- Tests:
- Verifies `text.verbosity` serializes when set and is omitted when not
set.
- Docs:
- Added “GPT‑5 Verbosity” section in `codex-rs/README.md`.
- Added `model_verbosity` section to `codex-rs/config.md`.
**Usage**
- In `~/.codex/config.toml`:
- `model = "gpt-5"`
- `model_verbosity = "low"` (or `"medium"` default, `"high"`)
- CLI override example:
- `codex -c model="gpt-5" -c model_verbosity="high"`
**API Impact**
- Requests to GPT‑5 via Responses API include: `text: { verbosity:
"low|medium|h
igh" }` when configured.
- For legacy models or Chat Completions providers, `text` is omitted.
**Backward Compatibility**
- Default behavior unchanged when `model_verbosity` is not set (server
default “
medium”).
**Testing**
- Added unit tests for serialization/omission of `text.verbosity`.
- Ran `cargo fmt` and `cargo test --all-features` (all green).
**Docs**
- `README.md`: new “GPT‑5 Verbosity” note under Config with example.
- `config.md`: new `model_verbosity` section.
**Out of Scope**
- No changes to temperature/top_p or other GPT‑5 parameters.
- No changes to Chat Completions wiring.
**Risks / Notes**
- If OpenAI changes the wire shape for verbosity, we may need to update
`Respons
esApiRequest`.
- Behavior gated to `gpt-5` model family to avoid unexpected effects
elsewhere.
**Checklist**
- [x] Code gated to GPT‑5 family only
- [x] Docs updated (`README.md`, `config.md`)
- [x] Tests added and passing
- [x] Formatting applied
Release note: Add `model_verbosity` config to control GPT‑5 output verbosity via the Responses API (low|medium|high).
This PR:
- fixes for internal employee because we currently want to prefer SIWC
for them.
- fixes retrying forever on unauthorized access. we need to break
eventually on max retries.
ChatGPT token's live for only 1 hour. If the session is longer we don't
refresh the token. We should get the expiry timestamp and attempt to
refresh before it.
This PR introduces `TurnContext`, which is designed to hold a set of
fields that should be constant for a turn of a conversation. Note that
the fields of `TurnContext` were previously governed by `Session`.
Ultimately, we want to enable users to change these values between turns
(changing model, approval policy, etc.), though in the current
implementation, the `TurnContext` is constant for the entire
conversation.

This PR:
* Added the clippy.toml to configure allowable expect / unwrap usage in
tests
* Removed as many expect/allow lines as possible from tests
* moved a bunch of allows to expects where possible
Note: in integration tests, non `#[test]` helper functions are not
covered by this so we had to leave a few lingering `expect(expect_used`
checks around
Wait for newlines, then render markdown on a line by line basis. Word wrap it for the current terminal size and then spit it out line by line into the UI. Also adds tests and fixes some UI regressions.
We wait until we have an entire newline, then format it with markdown and stream in to the UI. This reduces time to first token but is the right thing to do with our current rendering model IMO. Also lets us add word wrapping!

## Summary
Includes a new user message in the api payload which provides useful
environment context for the model, so it knows about things like the
current working directory and the sandbox.
## Testing
Updated unit tests
## Summary
In an effort to make tools easier to work with and more configurable,
I'm introducing `ToolConfig` and updating `Prompt` to take in a general
list of Tools. I think this is simpler and better for a few reasons:
- We can easily assemble tools from various sources (our own harness,
mcp servers, etc.) and we can consolidate the logic for constructing the
logic in one place that is separate from serialization.
- client.rs no longer needs arbitrary config values, it just takes in a
list of tools to serialize
A hefty portion of the PR is now updating our conversion of
`mcp_types::Tool` to `OpenAITool`, but considering that @bolinfest
accurately called this out as a TODO long ago, I think it's time we
tackled it.
## Testing
- [x] Experimented locally, no changes, as expected
- [x] Added additional unit tests
- [x] Responded to rust-review
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/1835 has some messed up history.
This adds support for streaming chat completions, which is useful for ollama. We should probably take a very skeptical eye to the code introduced in this PR.

To date, we have a number of hardcoded OpenAI model slug checks spread
throughout the codebase, which makes it hard to audit the various
special cases for each model. To mitigate this issue, this PR introduces
the idea of a `ModelFamily` that has fields to represent the existing
special cases, such as `supports_reasoning_summaries` and
`uses_local_shell_tool`.
There is a `find_family_for_model()` function that maps the raw model
slug to a `ModelFamily`. This function hardcodes all the knowledge about
the special attributes for each model. This PR then replaces the
hardcoded model name checks with checks against a `ModelFamily`.
Note `ModelFamily` is now available as `Config::model_family`. We should
ultimately remove `Config::model` in favor of
`Config::model_family::slug`.
## Summary
Our recent change in #1737 can sometimes lead to the model confusing
AGENTS.md context as part of the message. But a little prompting and
formatting can help fix this!
## Testing
- Ran locally with a few different prompts to verify the model
behaves well.
- Updated unit tests
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.
This adds a tool the model can call to update a plan. The tool doesn't
actually _do_ anything but it gives clients a chance to read and render
the structured plan. We will likely iterate on the prompt and tools
exposed for planning over time.
Always store the entire conversation history.
Request encrypted COT when not storing Responses.
Send entire input context instead of sending previous_response_id
## Summary
- add OpenAI retry and timeout fields to Config
- inject these settings in tests instead of mutating env vars
- plumb Config values through client and chat completions logic
- document new configuration options
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-core --no-run`

- Added support for message and reasoning deltas
- Skipped adding the support in the cli and tui for later
- Commented a failing test (wrong merge) that needs fix in a separate
PR.
Side note: I think we need to disable merge when the CI don't pass.
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/1524 introduced the new `config`
field on `ModelClient`, so this does the post-PR cleanup to remove the
now-unnecessary `model` field.
As noted in the updated docs, this makes it so that you can set:
```toml
model_supports_reasoning_summaries = true
```
as a way of overriding the existing heuristic for when to set the
`reasoning` field on a sampling request:
341c091c5b/codex-rs/core/src/client_common.rs (L152-L166)
This adds support for two new model provider config options:
- `http_headers` for hardcoded (key, value) pairs
- `env_http_headers` for headers whose values should be read from
environment variables
This also updates the built-in `openai` provider to use this feature to
set the following headers:
- `originator` => `codex_cli_rs`
- `version` => [CLI version]
- `OpenAI-Organization` => `OPENAI_ORGANIZATION` env var
- `OpenAI-Project` => `OPENAI_PROJECT` env var
for consistency with the TypeScript implementation:
bd5a9e8ba9/codex-cli/src/utils/agent/agent-loop.ts (L321-L329)
While here, this also consolidates some logic that was duplicated across
`client.rs` and `chat_completions.rs` by introducing
`ModelProviderInfo.create_request_builder()`.
Resolves https://github.com/openai/codex/discussions/1152
As discovered in https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/1365, the Azure
provider needs to be able to specify `api-version` as a query param, so
this PR introduces a generic `query_params` option to the
`model_providers` config so that an Azure provider can be defined as
follows:
```toml
[model_providers.azure]
name = "Azure"
base_url = "https://YOUR_PROJECT_NAME.openai.azure.com/openai"
env_key = "AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY"
query_params = { api-version = "2025-04-01-preview" }
```
This PR also updates the docs with this example.
While here, we also update `wire_api` to default to `"chat"`, as that is
likely the common case for someone defining an external provider.
Fixes https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/1365.
When using the OpenAI Responses API, we now record the `usage` field for
a `"response.completed"` event, which includes metrics about the number
of tokens consumed. We also introduce `openai_model_info.rs`, which
includes current data about the most common OpenAI models available via
the API (specifically `context_window` and `max_output_tokens`). If
Codex does not recognize the model, you can set `model_context_window`
and `model_max_output_tokens` explicitly in `config.toml`.
When then introduce a new event type to `protocol.rs`, `TokenCount`,
which includes the `TokenUsage` for the most recent turn.
Finally, we update the TUI to record the running sum of tokens used so
the percentage of available context window remaining can be reported via
the placeholder text for the composer:
We could certainly get much fancier with this (such as reporting the
estimated cost of the conversation), but for now, we are just trying to
achieve feature parity with the TypeScript CLI.
Though arguably this improves upon the TypeScript CLI, as the TypeScript
CLI uses heuristics to estimate the number of tokens used rather than
using the `usage` information directly:
296996d74e/codex-cli/src/utils/approximate-tokens-used.ts (L3-L16)
Fixes https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/1242
As explained in detail in the doc comment for `ParseMode::Lenient`, we
have observed that GPT-4.1 does not always generate a valid invocation
of `apply_patch`. Fortunately, the error is predictable, so we introduce
some new logic to the `codex-apply-patch` crate to recover from this
error.
Because we would like to avoid this becoming a de facto standard (as it
would be incompatible if `apply_patch` were provided as an actual
executable, unless we also introduced the lenient behavior in the
executable, as well), we require passing `ParseMode::Lenient` to
`parse_patch_text()` to make it clear that the caller is opting into
supporting this special case.
Note the analogous change to the TypeScript CLI was
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/930. In addition to changing the
accepted input to `apply_patch`, it also introduced additional
instructions for the model, which we include in this PR.
Note that `apply-patch` does not depend on either `regex` or
`regex-lite`, so some of the checks are slightly more verbose to avoid
introducing this dependency.
That said, this PR does not leverage the existing
`extract_heredoc_body_from_apply_patch_command()`, which depends on
`tree-sitter` and `tree-sitter-bash`:
5a5aa89914/codex-rs/apply-patch/src/lib.rs (L191-L246)
though perhaps it should.
