Summary

Enabling the Codex integration in its authless provider-table form was hard-refused on any home whose history Codex had already migrated to paginated form, if any conversation was still tagged openai. ocx sync and the dashboard sync aborted with history_paginated_openai_requires_native_writer, nothing was written — no config, no reference profile, no model_catalog_json — and the integration stayed disabled. The message ended with "do not retry" and named no way forward; the reporter's home had 173 affected conversations, and the only exits discoverable by reading the preflight source were deleting them or downgrading to 2.59.0. Before 2.60.0 the same transition completed, with the history relabel standing down while the routing and catalog half was still written.

The danger the guard names is real. A provider-table transition removes the root openai_base_url, and a paginated row cannot be relabeled, so after the transition that conversation would resume against Codex's built-in OpenAI endpoint rather than this proxy. Refusing to relabel is correct; refusing the whole transition is what trapped the user.

The injector already builds the state that resolves this. keepRootOverrideAlongsideTable keeps the marker-owned root openai_base_url beside the provider table for the client-compaction form, for exactly this reason: Codex builds its provider map as merge_configured_model_providers(built_in_model_providers(openai_base_url), model_providers), so the override lands on the built-in openai entry regardless of which id is the default. src/codex/inject/paginated-openai-compat.ts now selects that same retention from the preflight verdict rather than from the routing form. When the reason is the paginated-openai code and the target can own a root key, the override is retained, the reason is downgraded to the stand-down constant so the relabel unit never starts, and the transition completes. The paginated row is neither read nor written, and it keeps resolving to this proxy. The retained value is journaled as OpenCodex's own, so restore can still take it out.

Before, on a loopback authless home with one paginated openai thread:

Codex config injection refused: history_paginated_openai_requires_native_writer.
Existing provider definitions and conversation files were preserved.
Paginated history requires native-writer coordination; do not run legacy recovery or retry this transition blindly.

After, the same home gets its config, profile and catalog, with [model_providers.opencodex] and the marker-owned root override side by side, and the thread row still reads model_provider = 'openai', history_mode = 'paginated'.

Two cases do not reach that state, and both are honest rather than silent:

  • An admission-token form cannot use the root key at all, because Codex's built-in openai entry carries no x-opencodex-api-key header. It keeps the refusal, and the message now names unauthenticatedLoopbackListener and syncResumeHistory as the two settings that resolve it.
  • A root openai_base_url the user owns is left alone. The conversation follows the destination they chose, which is the guarantee the injector already makes everywhere else about a line it does not own, and the journal correctly records that line as not ours.

The recovery side (#4812). That issue is already closed on dev, and the new refusal code cannot reach restore: it is set only under providerTableMode, and restore preflights with providerTableMode = false, whose row predicate is model_provider = 'opencodex'. Two gaps were still open on that side and are fixed here. ocx restore --remove-codex-provider-table worked but appeared in no usage or help text, so the escape hatch was reachable only by reading dispatch.ts. And the public guide in all eight locales still said restore and Codex config removal refuse on history_paginated_requires_native_writer and that a paginated home cannot be uninstalled through the product — neither has been true since the degraded restore landed.

Other hard-refusal reasons on the recovery path still have no named repair command: a missing state database with pending manifest entries, and a backup manifest that is unreadable, foreign, or schema-invalid. Those are a different failure family and are deliberately left open rather than folded in here.

Where the logic lives. src/codex/inject.ts was at 984 of its 987-line file-size-ratchet cap, so the decision could not be inlined; the injector pays one import and one net line and now sits at exactly 987. The refusal code became an exported constant in src/codex/history-provider.ts because the same literal in two files is how the stand-down pair drifted the first time.

Verification

Static review plus exact-head hosted CI. Per this lane's constraints, the following were NOT RUN locally: bun test, any individual test file, bun run typecheck, any build, any install, live ocx execution, service restart, and any credential or configuration change.

Mechanical gates checked by hand before pushing:

  • File-size ratchet. src/codex/inject.ts is at 987 of its recorded cap of 987. The end-to-end suite tests/codex-integration/codex-inject-integration.test.ts is at 1959 of the 2000-line threshold, which is why the resolver's own cases went to a new file rather than growing it. No cap was raised.
  • Test layout. tests/codex-integration/history-paginated-openai-compat.test.ts is registered in both scripts/test-layout/layout.json and tests/fixtures/test-layout-expected.json, which tests/test-layout-tooling.test.ts requires to be byte-equal.
  • Union exhaustiveness. History refusal reasons are plain strings with no closed union or roster, and RestoreHistoryDisposition, RemoveCodexConfigHistoryDisposition and RetainedCodexProviderTable.reason are untouched. No count or member list is restated anywhere.
  • No generated file needs regeneration. No CLI capability was added, so skills/ocx/references/01_management_surface.md is unchanged; the registry gains only a details entry, which the skill gate does not read.
  • structure/config.md (554 lines) and structure/codex-home.md (354) stay under the 600-line budget, and every backticked path they name exists.

Regression coverage added:

No GUI file is touched, so the screenshot gate does not apply.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.
  • Docs or release notes were updated when needed.
  • Security-sensitive changes were reviewed for secrets, auth, and unsafe defaults.

Closes #5321

Partially addresses #4812 (already closed): the discoverability and documentation gaps left by its fix. The remaining recovery refusals listed above are not resolved here.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Provider-table integration now succeeds for existing paginated OpenAI conversations while preserving their history and routing.
    • Restore, stop, and uninstall no longer fail solely because history is paginated; retained provider configuration keeps affected conversations accessible.
    • Admission-token routing remains refused when required authorization cannot be supported.
  • New Features

    • Added ocx restore --remove-codex-provider-table to remove retained provider configuration.
  • Documentation

    • Updated integration guidance and CLI help across supported locales.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change supports paginated OpenAI history during provider-table integration. It retains compatible root routing state, exposes provider-table removal, updates localized documentation, and adds regression coverage.

Changes

Paginated history compatibility

Layer / File(s) Summary
Compatibility decision contract
src/codex/history-provider.ts, src/codex/inject/paginated-openai-compat.ts, structure/*, tests/codex-integration/history-paginated-openai-compat.test.ts
Adds a shared refusal constant and compatibility resolver. Loopback targets retain openai_base_url and stand down relabeling. Admission-token targets continue to refuse with configuration guidance.
Injection pipeline integration
src/codex/inject.ts, tests/codex-integration/codex-inject-integration.test.ts
Applies the resolver during injection, journals retained root ownership, leaves paginated rows unchanged, and verifies restore removes retained routing keys.
Recovery flag discoverability
src/cli/help.ts, src/cli/registry.ts, tests/cli/cli-restore-back.test.ts
Documents --remove-codex-provider-table in command metadata and usage output. The test verifies both help surfaces contain the parsed flag.
Documentation and validation
docs-site/src/content/docs/*/guides/codex-integration.md, scripts/test-layout/layout.json, tests/fixtures/test-layout-expected.json, devlog/_plan/...
Updates eight localized guides, test-layout mappings, and verification notes.

Explanation

The PR contains changes that are not required by directly linked issue #5321. src/cli/help.ts:29-30, src/cli/registry.ts:38-53, and tests/cli/cli-restore-back.test.ts expose and test ocx restore --remove-codex-provider-table. That flag supports the separate recovery/provider-table removal flow; it does not enable the authless transition required by #5321. devlog/_plan/260920_round2_followups/010_r1_paginated_history_guard.md explicitly includes the recovery side. The eight localized Codex guides also update restore, stop, uninstall, and provider-table removal behavior in addition to the in-scope activation text. These recovery changes are concrete scope expansion, not supporting tests or documentation for the activation fix.

Resolution

Remove the recovery-only CLI help and registry entries, the related CLI test changes, the recovery plan file, and the recovery-only guide changes. Alternatively, link the recovery issue as a direct coding requirement before retaining these changes.

P2 Badge Propagate the user-owned override verdict to the injector

When the paginated-OpenAI case encounters an existing user-owned openai_base_url, written.keptUserBaseUrl is true, but this result is reduced to retainedRootOverride: false and the caller's keptUserBaseUrl remains false. The transition therefore reaches the normal success branch in inject.ts, which reports that existing threads keep reaching the proxy and that all models route through OpenCodex, even though this helper deliberately leaves those threads following the user's potentially unrelated URL; it also bypasses the existing ownership-aware warning/default logic. Return the user-owned verdict separately and propagate it before constructing warnings and the final message.

Reapply paginated-OpenAI compatibility at the write boundary. For loopback targets, an initial null preflight leaves content unchanged. If history migrates before applyNativeArtifacts, the later preflight returns HISTORY_PAGINATED_OPENAI_NEEDS_ROOT_OVERRIDE, and observeHistoryRefusalOrThrow throws because it accepts only HISTORY_RELABEL_STANDS_DOWN. The injector then rejects the transition and compensates instead of retaining the root override. Re-run applyPaginatedOpenaiCompat for this boundary result, then rebuild the final candidate and witness before writing artifacts. Keep the refusal for admission-token targets, because that routing form cannot use the required root override. Add a regression test for an initial null result followed by the specialized boundary result.

Requesting changes on exact head 034ae6058eaf2fdf4da9ec9815d47820872b9632.

The hosted CI exposes one PR-specific blocker in addition to the unrelated StepFun layout failure. The rewritten end-to-end test fails at codex-inject-integration.test.ts:812: its input uses the existing # >>> opencodex managed openai_base_url >>> block, but the compatibility path does not normalize that ownership form to OCX_ROUTING_MARKER_LINE.

Concretely, stripInjectedOpenaiBaseUrl leaves that block in place, then setRootOpenaiBaseUrlForTarget sees the root URL without the current marker directly above it and reports keptUserBaseUrl = true. applyPaginatedOpenaiCompat therefore returns retainedRootOverride = false; keepRootOverrideAlongsideTable remains false and the journal does not claim the root URL. The transition happens to remain routed because the old URL bytes survive, but the PR’s stated guarantee that the retained override is owned and removed by restore is not established. CI stops before the later restore assertion can test it.

Please make the ownership contract explicit and make the end-to-end case pass: if that block is a supported legacy OpenCodex marker, migrate it to the current marker and journal the exact retained value; if it was only an invalid synthetic fixture, replace it with the real currently supported marker and add/document the intended legacy boundary separately. In either case, keep the inject -> untouched paginated row -> restore-removes-owned-root assertion executable. The tests/test-layout.test.ts failure for providers/stepfun-provider.test.ts is the current dev regression tracked by #5330, but this marker failure belongs to this head.

리뷰 · 우선순위 61 / 80

이 PR은 Codex를 프로바이더 테이블 방식으로 켤 때, 이미 페이지 나눔(paginated)된 openai 대화가 있으면 전부 막히던 문제를 고칩니다. 예전에는 history_paginated_openai_requires_native_writer로 설정·카탈로그·프로필까지 하나도 안 쓰고 통합이 꺼진 채로 남았어요. 지금은 루트 openai_base_url을 테이블 옆에 남겨 두어서, 대화 줄을 다시 쓰지 않고도 그 대화가 프록시를 계속 보게 합니다. admission-token 형식은 예전처럼 거절하되, 이제 unauthenticatedLoopbackListenersyncResumeHistory를 이름으로 알려 줍니다. 사용자가 직접 쓴 openai_base_url은 건드리지 않습니다. ocx restore --remove-codex-provider-table은 도움말·레지스트리에 드러나고, 8개 언어 가이드와 structure 문서도 복원 이야기를 맞춥니다. 베이스는 dev입니다.

라인 - src/codex/inject/paginated-openai-compat.tssrc/codex/inject.ts — 사용자가 가진 openai_base_url이면 retainedRootOverride만 false로 두고 keptUserBaseUrl은 inject 쪽에 안 넘깁니다. authless 테이블 경로에서는 원래 keptUserBaseUrl이 false라서, 성공 문구가 “모든 모델이 opencodex 프록시로 간다” 쪽으로 갑니다. 실제로는 기존 openai 스레드가 사용자 URL을 따릅니다. 저널은 null이라 디스크 소유권은 맞지만, 화면 메시지·경고 분기는 틀립니다.
라인 - src/codex/inject.ts observeHistoryRefusalOrThrow — 처음 preflight가 null이었다가, 쓰는 도중에 Codex가 openai 줄을 paginated로 바꾸면 HISTORY_PAGINATED_OPENAI_NEEDS_ROOT_OVERRIDE가 나와요. 이 함수는 stand-down만 통과시키고 이 코드는 throw합니다. 그러면 전환이 되돌아가고 #5321 잠금이 다시 납니다. 일반 paginated stand-down은 중간에 다시 봐도 되는데, 이번 전용 코드는 경계에서 다시 applyPaginatedOpenaiCompat을 안 탑니다.
라인 - src/codex/inject.ts — 파일 크기 상한 987줄에 딱 맞춰 두었습니다. 다음 한 줄도 못 넣으니, 위 전파/재적용을 고칠 때 또 모듈로 빼야 합니다. 설계상 이해는 되지만 유지비가 큽니다.
라인 - scripts/test-layout/layout.json / StepFun — #5313 테스트 등록은 이 버그 수정과 무관합니다. CI 가드를 풀려는 짧은 우회로 보이며, 따로 커밋되어 있어 괜찮지만 리뷰 범위가 살짝 넓어집니다.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

사용자 소유 URL + paginated openai 홈에서, 성공 메시지를 client-compaction과 같은 “당신 URL을 그대로 둠” 문구로 맞출지, 지금처럼 일반 성공 문구를 쓸지.
쓰기 중 마이그레이션 레이스까지 이 PR에서 고칠지, 드문 경우로 follow-up에 둘지.
남은 복원 거절(깨진 매니페스트·없는 state DB)을 언제 이름 있는 수리 명령으로 열지 — 본문에서 의도적으로 남겨 둔 부분입니다.

너의 추천

메인 경로(#5321 리포터 형태: loopback authless + 관리 마커 URL)는 테스트로 잘 고정되어 있어서 방향은 맞습니다. 합치기 전에 keptUserBaseUrl(또는 같은 뜻의 플래그)을 compat 결과에서 inject로 넘겨 메시지·경고를 맞추세요. 가능하면 write 경계에서 HISTORY_PAGINATED_OPENAI_NEEDS_ROOT_OVERRIDE가 새로 보이면 compat를 한 번 더 적용하고 후보를 다시 만든 뒤 쓰세요. admission-token 거절은 지금처럼 유지하세요. CI가 초록이면 그 두 가지 반영 후 dev에 넣는 걸 추천합니다.

I re-checked the new CodeRabbit write-boundary finding against the actual transaction flow. I do not consider it a merge blocker for this fix.

If the first preflight returns null and history becomes paginated before either write-boundary observation, observeHistoryRefusalOrThrow sees history_paginated_openai_requires_native_writer and throws. applyNativeArtifacts catches that and restores the config/profile preimages; no misrouted committed state is accepted. A retry then sees the specialized reason at the initial preflight and takes the new compatibility path. If migration occurs between the pre-write observation and the writes, the post-write observation throws and the same compensation runs. Rebuilding the candidate and witness inside that boundary would be a larger coordination change, not required to keep this PR safe.

The replacement fixture now uses the real OCX_ROUTING_MARKER_LINE, which resolves my earlier exact-head CI failure and makes the inject -> retained owned root -> restore assertion meaningful. I will clear my change request only after the replacement-head tests pass and the shared macOS CI repair (#5338) lands/re-runs this head.

…nai home

A provider-table transition that found an `openai`-tagged thread row Codex had already
migrated to paginated history was refused outright. Nothing was written — no config, no
reference profile, no `model_catalog_json` — and the integration stayed disabled, with a
message that said only "do not retry". The reporter's home had 173 such conversations, and
the only exits they could find by reading the preflight source were deleting them or
downgrading (#5321).

The danger the guard names is real: the transition removes the root `openai_base_url`, and
a paginated row cannot be relabeled, so that conversation would resume against Codex's
built-in OpenAI endpoint instead of this proxy.

The injector already builds the state that resolves it. `keepRootOverrideAlongsideTable`
keeps the marker-owned root override beside the provider table for the client-compaction
form, for exactly this reason. This selects the same retention from the preflight verdict
rather than from the routing form: when the reason is the paginated-openai code and the
target can own a root key, the override is retained, the reason is downgraded to the
stand-down constant so the relabel unit never starts, and the transition completes. The
paginated row is neither read nor written, and it keeps resolving to this proxy. The
retained value is journaled as OpenCodex's own, so restore can still take it out.

An admission-token form still refuses, because Codex's built-in `openai` entry cannot carry
`x-opencodex-api-key`; its message now names `unauthenticatedLoopbackListener` and
`syncResumeHistory` rather than telling the operator not to retry. A root line the user owns
is left alone, and the conversation follows the destination they chose.

The logic lives in a new module because `src/codex/inject.ts` had three lines of
file-size-ratchet headroom. The refusal code is now an exported constant, since the same
literal in two files is how the stand-down pair drifted the first time.
The flag has worked since the #4812 teardown fix, but it appeared in no usage string and no
help text, so a user whose paginated restore kept `[model_providers.opencodex]` could only
find it by reading `dispatch.ts`. It is now in the command registry entries for `restore`
and `eject` and in top-level usage.
The end-to-end case previously asserted the refusal, so it is rewritten around the completed
transition: the config carries both `[model_providers.opencodex]` and the marker-owned root
override, the rollout bytes and the thread row are unchanged, and a following `ocx restore`
takes the retained override back out. That last assertion is what keeps this from trading
#5321 for a new #4812.

The resolver gets its own file rather than growing the 1938-line integration suite:
placement of the retained line before the first table, CRLF preservation, a user-owned root
line left untouched and not claimed in the journal, the admission-token refusal naming two
remedies that are asserted to exist as keys in `src/types/config.ts`, every other reason
passing through with the text it always had, and a source-oracle check that the refusal code
is defined once and read from that definition.

The CLI case reads the removal flag out of `dispatch.ts` instead of restating it, so a
rename cannot leave the help text silently wrong.
…etention

Two things were stale or missing in the Codex integration guide across all eight locales. It
still said `ocx restore` and Codex config removal refuse on
`history_paginated_requires_native_writer` and that a paginated home cannot be uninstalled
through the product; both stopped being true when #4812 landed the degraded restore. And
nothing described what a provider-table transition now does when it meets an
already-paginated `openai` conversation.

`structure/config.md` and `structure/codex-home.md` gain the apply-side rule: the
paginated-openai reason selects the root-override retention in the same window as the
existing provider-table retention, before the witness, and only an admission-token form
still refuses.
What the guard protected, why refusing the whole transition was the lockout rather than the
protection, why the fix selects an existing mechanism instead of adding one, the evidence
that #4812's recovery half is already closed on dev, and the recovery reasons deliberately
left open.
The fixture this case inherited wrote `# >>> opencodex managed openai_base_url >>>`,
a marker string that appears nowhere in `src/`. It never mattered while the case
asserted that nothing was written. Now that the transition completes, the injector
correctly read that unrecognised line as user-owned, left it alone, and the case
failed against its own fiction.

The fixture is now the reporter's actual shape: a loopback root-override home, marked
with `OCX_ROUTING_MARKER_LINE`, turning on `codexDesktopAuthless`. The injector strips
its own line, builds the table, and the retention writes a marker-owned override back.
The user-owned variant is covered separately in the resolver's own file.
