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.

This adds `parsed_cmd: Vec<ParsedCommand>` to `ExecApprovalRequestEvent`
in the core protocol (`protocol/src/protocol.rs`), which is also what
this field is named on `ExecCommandBeginEvent`. Honestly, I don't love
the name (it sounds like a single command, but it is actually a list of
them), but I don't want to get distracted by a naming discussion right
now.
This also adds `parsed_cmd` to `ExecCommandApprovalParams` in
`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol.rs`, so it will be available
via `codex app-server`, as well.
For consistency, I also updated `ExecApprovalElicitRequestParams` in
`codex-rs/mcp-server/src/exec_approval.rs` to include this field under
the name `codex_parsed_cmd`, as that struct already has a number of
special `codex_*` fields. Note this is the code for when Codex is used
as an MCP _server_ and therefore has to conform to the official spec for
an MCP elicitation type.
This changes the reqwest client used in tests to be sandbox-friendly,
and skips a bunch of other tests that don't work inside the
sandbox/without network.
`test_shell_command_approval_triggers_elicitation()` is one of a number
of integration tests that we have observed to be flaky on GitHub CI, so
this PR tries to reduce the flakiness _and_ to provide us with more
information when it flakes. Specifically:
- Changed the command that we use to trigger the elicitation from `git
init` to `python3 -c 'import pathlib; pathlib.Path(r"{}").touch()'`
because running `git` seems more likely to invite variance.
- Increased the timeout to wait for the task response from 10s to 20s.
- Added more logging.
this dramatically improves time to run `cargo test -p codex-core` (~25x
speedup).
before:
```
cargo test -p codex-core 35.96s user 68.63s system 19% cpu 8:49.80 total
```
after:
```
cargo test -p codex-core 5.51s user 8.16s system 63% cpu 21.407 total
```
both tests measured "hot", i.e. on a 2nd run with no filesystem changes,
to exclude compile times.
approach inspired by [Delete Cargo Integration
Tests](https://matklad.github.io/2021/02/27/delete-cargo-integration-tests.html),
we move all test cases in tests/ into a single suite in order to have a
single binary, as there is significant overhead for each test binary
executed, and because test execution is only parallelized with a single
binary.
