## 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)

we are seeing [reports](https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/6004) of
users having verbosity in their config.toml and facing issues.
gpt-5-codex doesn't accept other values rather than medium for
verbosity.
Fixes a Markdown parsing issue where a list item used `*` without a
following space (`*Line ranges ...`). Per CommonMark, a space after the
list marker is required. Updated to `* Line ranges ...` so the guideline
renders as a standalone bullet. This change improves readability and
prevents mis-parsing in renderers.

## 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).
# Summary
This PR is related to the Issue #3978 and contains a fix to the seatbelt
profile for macOS that allows to run java/jdk tooling from the sandbox.
I have found that the included change is the minimum change to make it
run on my machine.
There is a unit test added by codex when making this fix. I wonder if it
is useful since you need java installed on the target machine for it to
be relevant. I can remove it it is better.
Fixes#3978
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.

We had this annotation everywhere in app-server APIs which made it so
that fields get serialized as `field?: T`, meaning if the field as
`None` we would omit the field in the payload. Removing this annotation
changes it so that we return `field: T | null` instead, which makes
codex app-server's API more aligned with the convention of public OpenAI
APIs like Responses.
Separately, remove the `#[ts(optional_fields = nullable)]` annotations
that were recently added which made all the TS types become `field?: T |
null` which is not great since clients need to handle undefined and
null.
I think generally it'll be best to have optional types be either:
- `field: T | null` (preferred, aligned with public OpenAI APIs)
- `field?: T` where we have to, such as types generated from the MCP
schema:
https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/modelcontextprotocol/blob/main/schema/2025-06-18/schema.ts
(see changes to `mcp-types/`)
I updated @etraut-openai's unit test to check that all generated TS
types are one or the other, not both (so will error if we have a type
that has `field?: T | null`). I don't think there's currently a good use
case for that - but we can always revisit.
## Summary
Duplicates the tests in `apply_patch_cli.rs`, but tests the freeform
apply_patch tool as opposed to the function call path. The good news is
that all the tests pass with zero logical tests, with the exception of
the heredoc, which doesn't really make sense in the freeform tool
context anyway.
@jif-oai since you wrote the original tests in #5557, I'd love your
opinion on the right way to DRY these test cases between the two. Happy
to set up a more sophisticated harness, but didn't want to go down the
rabbit hole until we agreed on the right pattern
## Testing
- [x] These are tests
## 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

## Summary
- re-enable the TypeScript SDK test that verifies local images are
forwarded to `codex exec`
## Testing
- `pnpm test` *(fails: unable to download pnpm 10.8.1 because external
network access is blocked in the sandbox)*

In this PR, I am exploring migrating task kind to an invocation of
Codex. The main reason would be getting rid off multiple
`ConversationHistory` state and streamlining our context/history
management.
This approach depends on opening a channel between the sub-codex and
codex. This channel is responsible for forwarding `interactive`
(`approvals`) and `non-interactive` events. The `task` is responsible
for handling those events.
This opens the door for implementing `codex as a tool`, replacing
`compact` and `review`, and potentially subagents.
One consideration is this code is very similar to `app-server` specially
in the approval part. If in the future we wanted an interactive
`sub-codex` we should consider using `codex-mcp`
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
We currently have nested enums when sending raw response items in the
app-server protocol. This makes downstream schemas confusing because we
need to embed `type`-discriminated enums within each other.
This PR adds a small wrapper around the response item so we can keep the
schemas separate
This PR addresses a current hole in the TypeScript code generation for
the API server protocol. Fields that are marked as "Optional<>" in the
Rust code are serialized such that the value is omitted when it is
deserialized — appearing as `undefined`, but the TS type indicates
(incorrectly) that it is always defined but possibly `null`. This can
lead to subtle errors that the TypeScript compiler doesn't catch. The
fix is to include the `#[ts(optional_fields = nullable)]` macro for all
protocol structs that contain one or more `Optional<>` fields.
This PR also includes a new test that validates that all TS protocol
code containing "| null" in its type is marked optional ("?") to catch
cases where `#[ts(optional_fields = nullable)]` is omitted.
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.

Found that the VS Code Codex extension throws “Error starting
conversation” when initializing a conversation with Git for Windows’
bash on PATH.
Debugging showed the bash-detection logic did not return as expected;
this change makes it reliable in that scenario.
Possibly related to issue #2841.
# Preserve PATH precedence & fix Windows MCP env propagation
## Problem & intent
Preserve user PATH precedence and reduce Windows setup friction for MCP
servers by avoiding PATH reordering and ensuring Windows child processes
receive essential env vars.
- Addresses: #4180#5225#2945#3245#3385#2892#3310#3457#4370
- Supersedes: #4182, #3866, #3828 (overlapping/inferior once this
merges)
- Notes: #2626 / #2646 are the original PATH-mutation sources being
corrected.
---
## Before / After
**Before**
- PATH was **prepended** with an `apply_patch` helper dir (Rust + Node
wrapper), reordering tools and breaking virtualenvs/shims on
macOS/Linux.
- On Windows, MCP servers missed core env vars and often failed to start
without explicit per-server env blocks.
**After**
- Helper dir is **appended** to PATH (preserves user/tool precedence).
- Windows MCP child env now includes common core variables and mirrors
`PATH` → `Path`, so typical CLIs/plugins work **without** per-server env
blocks.
---
## Scope of change
### `codex-rs/arg0/src/lib.rs`
- Append temp/helper dir to `PATH` instead of prepending.
### `codex-cli/bin/codex.js`
- Mirror the same append behavior for the Node wrapper.
### `codex-rs/rmcp-client/src/utils.rs`
- Expand Windows `DEFAULT_ENV_VARS` (e.g., `COMSPEC`, `SYSTEMROOT`,
`PROGRAMFILES*`, `APPDATA`, etc.).
- Mirror `PATH` → `Path` for Windows child processes.
- Small unit test; conditional `mut` + `clippy` cleanup.
---
## Security effects
No broadened privileges. Only environment propagation for well-known
Windows keys on stdio MCP child processes. No sandbox policy changes and
no network additions.
---
## Testing evidence
**Static**
- `cargo fmt`
- `cargo clippy -p codex-arg0 -D warnings` → **clean**
- `cargo clippy -p codex-rmcp-client -D warnings` → **clean**
- `cargo test -p codex-rmcp-client` → **13 passed**
**Manual**
- Local verification on Windows PowerShell 5/7 and WSL (no `unused_mut`
warnings on non-Windows targets).
---
## Checklist
- [x] Append (not prepend) helper dir to PATH in Rust and Node wrappers
- [x] Windows MCP child inherits core env vars; `PATH` mirrored to
`Path`
- [x] `cargo fmt` / `clippy` clean across touched crates
- [x] Unit tests updated/passing where applicable
- [x] Cross-platform behavior preserved (macOS/Linux PATH precedence
intact)
This PR adds an option to app server to allow conversation summaries to
be fetched from just the conversation id rather than rollout path for
convenience at the cost of some latency to discover the rollout path.
This convenience is non-trivial as it allows app servers to simply
maintain conversation ids rather than rollout paths and the associated
platform (Windows) handling associated with storing and encoding them
correctly.
Follow-up to https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/5063
Refined the app-server export pipeline so JSON Schema variants and
discriminator fields are annotated with descriptive, stable titles
before writing the bundle. This eliminates anonymous enum names in the
generated Pydantic models (goodbye Type7) while keeping downstream
tooling simple. Added shared helpers to derive titles and literals, and
reused them across the traversal logic for clarity. Running just fix -p
codex-app-server-protocol, just fmt, and cargo test -p
codex-app-server-protocol validates the change.

Block non-image uploads in the view_image workflow. We now confirm the
file’s MIME is image/* before building the data URL; otherwise we emit a
“unsupported MIME type” error to the model. This stops the agent from
sending application/json blobs that the Responses API rejects with 400s.

Testing: I tested that images work (regardless of order that they are
associated with the task prompt) in both the CLI and Extension. Also
verified that conversations in CLI and extension with images can be
resumed.
