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.
There's a lot of visual noise in app-server's integration tests due to
the number of `.expect("<some_msg>")` lines which are largely redundant
/ not very useful. Clean them up by using `anyhow::Result` + `?`
consistently.
Replaces the existing pattern of:
```
let codex_home = TempDir::new().expect("create temp dir");
create_config_toml(codex_home.path()).expect("write config.toml");
let mut mcp = McpProcess::new(codex_home.path())
.await
.expect("spawn mcp process");
timeout(DEFAULT_READ_TIMEOUT, mcp.initialize())
.await
.expect("initialize timeout")
.expect("initialize request");
```
With:
```
let codex_home = TempDir::new()?;
create_config_toml(codex_home.path())?;
let mut mcp = McpProcess::new(codex_home.path()).await?;
timeout(DEFAULT_READ_TIMEOUT, mcp.initialize()).await??;
```
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.

fixing drag/drop photos bug in codex
state of the world before:
sometimes, when you drag screenshots into codex, the image does not
properly render into context. instead, the file name is shown in
quotation marks.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3c0e540a-505c-4ec0-b634-e9add6a73119
the screenshot is not actually included in agent context. the agent
needs to manually call the view_image tool to see the screenshot. this
can be unreliable especially if the image is part of a longer prompt and
is dependent on the agent going out of its way to view the image.
state of the world after:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/5f2b7bf7-8a3f-4708-85f3-d68a017bfd97
now, images will always be directly embedded into chat context
## Technical Details
- MacOS sends screenshot paths with a narrow no‑break space right before
the “AM/PM” suffix, which used to trigger our non‑ASCII fallback in the
paste burst detector.
- That fallback flushed the partially buffered paste immediately, so the
path arrived in two separate `handle_paste` calls (quoted prefix +
`PM.png'`). The split string could not be normalized to a real path, so
we showed the quoted filename instead of embedding the image.
- We now append non‑ASCII characters into the burst buffer when a burst
is already active. Finder’s payload stays intact, the path normalizes,
and the image attaches automatically.
- When no burst is active (e.g. during IME typing), non‑ASCII characters
still bypass the buffer so text entry remains responsive.
It's pretty amazing we have gotten here without the ability for the
model to see image content from MCP tool calls.
This PR builds off of 4391 and fixes#4819. I would like @KKcorps to get
adequete credit here but I also want to get this fix in ASAP so I gave
him a week to update it and haven't gotten a response so I'm going to
take it across the finish line.
This test highlights how absured the current situation is. I asked the
model to read this image using the Chrome MCP
<img width="2378" height="674" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9ef52608-72a2-4423-9f5e-7ae36b2b56e0"
/>
After this change, it correctly outputs:
> Captured the page: image dhows a dark terminal-style UI labeled
`OpenAI Codex (v0.0.0)` with prompt `model: gpt-5-codex medium` and
working directory `/codex/codex-rs`
(and more)
Before this change, it said:
> Took the full-page screenshot you asked for. It shows a long,
horizontally repeating pattern of stylized people in orange, light-blue,
and mustard clothing, holding hands in alternating poses against a white
background. No text or other graphics-just rows of flat illustration
stretching off to the right.
Without this change, the Figma, Playwright, Chrome, and other visual MCP
servers are pretty much entirely useless.
I tested this change with the openai respones api as well as a third
party completions api
Makes sense to move this struct to `app-server-protocol/` since we want
to serialize as camelCase, but we don't for structs defined in
`protocol/`
It was:
```
export type Account = { "type": "ApiKey", api_key: string, } | { "type": "chatgpt", email: string | null, plan_type: PlanType, };
```
But we want:
```
export type Account = { "type": "apiKey", apiKey: string, } | { "type": "chatgpt", email: string | null, planType: PlanType, };
```
move the truncation logic to conversation history to use on any tool
output. This will help us in avoiding edge cases while truncating the
tool calls and mcp calls.
Follow-up PR to #5569. Add Keyring Support for Auth Storage in Codex CLI
as well as a hybrid mode (default to persisting in keychain but fall
back to file when unavailable.)
It also refactors out the keyringstore implementation from rmcp-client
[here](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/rmcp-client/src/oauth.rs)
to a new keyring-store crate.
There will be a follow-up that picks the right credential mode depending
on the config, instead of hardcoding `AuthCredentialsStoreMode::File`.
This PR introduces a new `Auth Storage` abstraction layer that takes
care of read, write, and load of auth tokens based on the
AuthCredentialsStoreMode. It is similar to how we handle MCP client
oauth
[here](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/rmcp-client/src/oauth.rs).
Instead of reading and writing directly from disk for auth tokens, Codex
CLI workflows now should instead use this auth storage using the public
helper functions.
This PR is just a refactor of the current code so the behavior stays the
same. We will add support for keyring and hybrid mode in follow-up PRs.

This PR does the following:
1. Changes `try_refresh_token` to handle the case where the endpoint
returns a response without an `id_token`. The OpenID spec indicates that
this field is optional and clients should not assume it's present.
2. Changes the `attempt_stream_responses` to propagate token refresh
errors rather than silently ignoring them.
3. Fixes a typo in a couple of error messages (unrelated to the above,
but something I noticed in passing) - "reconnect" should be spelled
without a hyphen.
This PR does not implement the additional suggestion from @pakrym-oai
that we should sign out when receiving `refresh_token_expired` from the
refresh endpoint. Leaving this as a follow-on because I'm undecided on
whether this should be implemented in `try_refresh_token` or its
callers.
This adds an RPC to the app server to the the `ConversationSummary` via
a rollout path. Now that the VS Code extension supports showing the
Codex UI in an editor panel where the URI of the panel maps to the
rollout file, we need to be able to get the `ConversationSummary` from
the rollout file directly.
An AppServer client should be able to use any (`model_provider`, `model`) in the user's config. `NewConversationParams` already supported specifying the `model`, but this PR expands it to support `model_provider`, as well.

Because conversations that use the Responses API can have encrypted
reasoning messages, trying to resume a conversation with a different
provider could lead to confusing "failed to decrypt" errors. (This is
reproducible by starting a conversation using ChatGPT login and resuming
it as a conversation that uses OpenAI models via Azure.)
This changes `ListConversationsParams` to take a `model_providers:
Option<Vec<String>>` and adds `model_provider` on each
`ConversationSummary` it returns so these cases can be disambiguated.
Note this ended up making changes to
`codex-rs/core/src/rollout/tests.rs` because it had a number of cases
where it expected `Some` for the value of `next_cursor`, but the list of
rollouts was complete, so according to this docstring:
bcd64c7e72/codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol.rs (L334-L337)
If there are no more items to return, then `next_cursor` should be
`None`. This PR updates that logic.

Revert #5642 because this generates:
```
// GENERATED CODE! DO NOT MODIFY BY HAND!
// This file was generated by [ts-rs](https://github.com/Aleph-Alpha/ts-rs). Do not edit this file manually.
export type GetAccountResponse = Account | null;
```
But `Account` is unknown.
The unique use of `#[ts(export)]` on `GetAccountResponse` is also
suspicious as are the changes to
`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/export.rs` since the existing system
has worked fine for quite some time.
Though a pure backout of #5642 puts things in a state where, as the PR
noted, the following does not work:
```
cargo run -p codex-app-server-protocol --bin export -- --out DIR
```
So in addition to the backout, this PR adds:
```rust
#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug, Clone, PartialEq, JsonSchema, TS)]
#[serde(rename_all = "camelCase")]
pub struct GetAccountResponse {
pub account: Account,
}
```
and changes `GetAccount.response` as follows:
```diff
- response: Option<Account>,
+ response: GetAccountResponse,
```
making it consistent with other types.
With this change, I verified that both of the following work:
```
just codex generate-ts --out /tmp/somewhere
cargo run -p codex-app-server-protocol --bin export -- --out /tmp/somewhere-else
```
The generated TypeScript is as follows:
```typescript
// GetAccountResponse.ts
import type { Account } from "./Account";
export type GetAccountResponse = { account: Account, };
```
and
```typescript
// Account.ts
import type { PlanType } from "./PlanType";
export type Account = { "type": "ApiKey", api_key: string, } | { "type": "chatgpt", email: string | null, plan_type: PlanType, };
```
Though while the inconsistency between `"type": "ApiKey"` and `"type":
"chatgpt"` is quite concerning, I'm not sure if that format is ever
written to disk in any case, but @owenlin0, I would recommend looking
into that.
Also, it appears that the types in `codex-rs/protocol/src/account.rs`
are used exclusively by the `app-server-protocol` crate, so perhaps they
should just be moved there?
Currently, `approval_policy` is supported in profiles, but
`sandbox_mode` is not. This PR adds support for `sandbox_mode`.
Note: a fix for this was submitted in [this
PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/2397), but the underlying code
has changed significantly since then.
This addresses issue #3034
This PR fixes a test that is sporadically failing in CI.
The problem is that two unit tests (the older `login_and_cancel_chatgpt`
and a recently added
`login_chatgpt_includes_forced_workspace_query_param`) exercise code
paths that start the login server. The server binds to a hard-coded
localhost port number, so attempts to start more than one server at the
same time will fail. If these two tests happen to run concurrently, one
of them will fail.
To fix this, I've added a simple mutex. We can use this same mutex for
future tests that use the same pattern.
This PR adds support for a model-based summary and risk assessment for
commands that violate the sandbox policy and require user approval. This
aids the user in evaluating whether the command should be approved.
The feature works by taking a failed command and passing it back to the
model and asking it to summarize the command, give it a risk level (low,
medium, high) and a risk category (e.g. "data deletion" or "data
exfiltration"). It uses a new conversation thread so the context in the
existing thread doesn't influence the answer. If the call to the model
fails or takes longer than 5 seconds, it falls back to the current
behavior.
For now, this is an experimental feature and is gated by a config key
`experimental_sandbox_command_assessment`.
Here is a screen shot of the approval prompt showing the risk assessment
and summary.

The API schema export is currently broken:
```
> cargo run -p codex-app-server-protocol --bin export -- --out DIR
Error: this type cannot be exported
```
This PR fixes the error message so we get more info:
```
> cargo run -p codex-app-server-protocol --bin export -- --out DIR
Error: failed to export client responses: dependency core::option::Option<codex_protocol::account::Account> cannot be exported
```
And fixes the root cause which is the `account/read` response.
## Summary
- wrap the default reqwest::Client inside a new
CodexHttpClient/CodexRequestBuilder pair and log the HTTP method, URL,
and status for each request
- update the auth/model/provider plumbing to use the new builder helpers
so headers and bearer auth continue to be applied consistently
- add the shared `http` dependency that backs the header conversion
helpers
## Testing
- `CODEX_SANDBOX=seatbelt CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED=1 cargo test -p
codex-core`
- `CODEX_SANDBOX=seatbelt CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED=1 cargo test -p
codex-chatgpt`

1. I have seen too many reports of people hitting startup timeout errors
and thinking Codex is broken. Hopefully this will help people
self-serve. We may also want to consider raising the timeout to ~15s.
2. Make it more clear what PAT is (personal access token) in the GitHub
error
