**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).
codex-core
This crate implements the business logic for Codex. It is designed to be used by the various Codex UIs written in Rust.
Dependencies
Note that codex-core makes some assumptions about certain helper utilities being available in the environment. Currently, this
macOS
Expects /usr/bin/sandbox-exec to be present.
Linux
Expects the binary containing codex-core to run the equivalent of codex debug landlock when arg0 is codex-linux-sandbox. See the codex-arg0 crate for details.
All Platforms
Expects the binary containing codex-core to simulate the virtual apply_patch CLI when arg1 is --codex-run-as-apply-patch. See the codex-arg0 crate for details.
