Summary

  • The read-only Codex CLI update plan now also strips the four OpenSSL startup variables — OPENSSL_CONF, OPENSSL_CONF_INCLUDE, OPENSSL_MODULES, and OPENSSL_ENGINES — from the environment handed to the spawned npm.
  • These variables steer the crypto library's startup configuration file, that configuration's relative-include directory, and its provider/engine module-search directories. An ambient value (for example one set by a project dotenv) is not an input the updater child needs, so it no longer reaches the spawned process.
  • Supported channels are unchanged: the standard proxy variables and NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS still reach the spawned npm, and the filter remains a denylist for process-startup/output channels rather than an ambient-environment allowlist.
  • structure/codex-cli-update.md updated to match the child-environment contract.

Verification

  • bun test tests/codex-integration/codex-cli-update-plan.test.ts — 53 pass, 1 pre-existing skip, 0 fail, 269 assertions (run locally with Bun 1.4.2; hosted CI runtime version not independently verified). New coverage: six capture-only cases assert ambient OPENSSL_* variables (upper- and lowercase) never appear in the spawned child's env, and a sentinel test asserts HTTP_PROXY/NO_PROXY/NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS still pass through case-insensitively. These tests inspect the captured spawn options only; no real OpenSSL provider or engine load is exercised.
  • bun x tsc --noEmit — clean.
  • bun run structure:check — passed.
  • bun run privacy:scan — passed.
  • The full bun run test suite was not run locally. Hosted CI on the exact head 56e1d10 has since completed green: Cross-platform CI run 39188196477 SUCCESS - all four Ubuntu test shards, gates and the ci aggregate (https://github.com/lidge-jun/opencodex/actions/runs/39188196477) - and Enforce PR target branch, PR hygiene, PR Labeler, React Doctor and Catalog async contracts all SUCCESS. Conditional Windows/macOS/desktop jobs and other skipped checks were not executed; skipped is not executed. CodeRabbit reviewed the exact head with no actionable comments.

📝 Walkthrough

The npm child environment now removes four OpenSSL startup variables. Documentation describes the filtered variables and retained proxy and CA settings. Integration tests verify both behaviors across captured npm environments.

Intake/scoped review at 56e1d10e5c333e7b629186208a6d77fdde5d881a.

The four OpenSSL startup variables are removed case-insensitively while proxy and NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS support remain. The new tests inspect captured spawn options; they do not exercise native provider/engine loading. Current-head functional CI is successful. The dependency-startup/environment boundary still needs the explicit security review required by MAINTAINERS.md; this intake is not that review.

Existing current-head CI was inspected; its success is limited to the jobs actually selected, with skipped platforms retaining no runtime certification. No local suite was run for this branch in this intake. No workflow approval, new scan, live configuration change or merge was performed. Required review/readiness gates remain in force.

Co-authored-by: luvs01 <27862058+luvs01@users.noreply.github.com>

* fix(codex): keep the service token out of bypassed shim launches

All three Codex shims loaded the service API token into OPENCODEX_API_AUTH_TOKEN before checking OCX_SHIM_BYPASS, so a bypassed native passthrough launch handed the proxy data-plane token to the real Codex and its descendants. The POSIX, CMD and PowerShell shims now skip the token load under bypass; the Unix revision marker moves to 4 so installed wrappers are refreshed.

loadServiceTokenFromFile reads the inherited OCX_API_TOKEN_FILE through a no-follow, nonblocking descriptor, accepts only a regular file of at most 4 KiB and returns only a single-line printable token.

* test(claude): wait for a real ctime transition before requiring rejection

Re-applying the same utimes moves ctime only after the kernel clock ticks, so the real ctime case from #7301 often observed no change and the reader correctly returned {}. Repeat the call until ctime has advanced (bounded), assert that precondition, then require desktop_config_not_regular.

* fix(google-antigravity): admit a probed project_id fallback in account import (carry #7385)

An Antigravity account whose Cloud Code Assist project is not auto-discovered was rejected with missing_project even when the operator knows its project. A Cockpit record may now carry a bounded project_id (Google Cloud project grammar, 6-30 chars, exact match). Discovery keeps precedence; the fallback is admitted only after the account quota probe succeeds with that account own access token against that project. Probe refusal, probe errors and cancellation write nothing. No shared default project.

* fix(quota): name a closed reason when an OAuth account quota probe fails

Anthropic per-account quota rows reported quotaUnavailable with no reason, and Antigravity reported account_unavailable for any credential-side throw. The Anthropic usage read now reports a closed code for an HTTP status class, an unusable body or a thrown dispatch, and a probe that cannot obtain a credential reports account_unavailable without dispatching. Antigravity distinguishes a credential refresh deadline (timeout). Codes reuse the existing closed QUOTA_FAILURE_CODES set, carry no upstream text and never change account health.

* test(claude): match the symlink-resolved rollback target in the picker restore case

The atomic writer renames onto the symlink-resolved target, so on macOS (/var -> /private/var) the rollback rename never matched the fixture path and the restore-failure injection did not fire. Compare both spellings.

Co-authored-by: luvs01 <27862058+luvs01@users.noreply.github.com>

* fix(google-antigravity): cancel the import project probe with the import request

probeAntigravityUsageQuota accepts an optional caller signal that cancels every request of the probe and stops before the models fallback; the import verifier forwards the import signal and never admits after cancellation.

* fix(codex): upgrade installed Windows shims that load the token before bypass

CMD and PowerShell wrappers now carry a Windows revision marker. A marked wrapper without it (installed before the bypass-token fix) is obsolete: installCodexShim and autoRestoreCodexShim rewrite it in place over the same backing launcher instead of reporting it healthy or already installed, and diagnostics report it unhealthy. On Windows the service token reader also binds the opened descriptor to the path by identity, so a link swapped in after lstat is refused.

* test(codex): mark the in-place Windows diagnostics fixture with the current revision

* fix(codex): refresh obsolete Windows shims without clobbering a concurrent replacement

The obsolete-wrapper refresh truncated whatever occupied the wrapper path. It now moves the observed wrapper aside and proves it is the probed file, stages the current wrapper beside it, and publishes with a hard link that refuses an occupied path. A concurrent replacement is restored or kept untouched and the refresh reports deferred.

* docs(structure): record the Windows shim refresh transaction

* fix(codex): create the Windows shim refresh stage exclusively and resume partial upgrades

The refresh stage is now created with O_CREAT|O_EXCL (and O_NOFOLLOW on POSIX) under an independent random name, and publication, withdrawal and cleanup are bound to the identity of the file this refresh created, so a planted link is never written through. Auto-restore resumes a Windows revision-only sibling mix (current plus obsolete wrappers) instead of deferring forever after one transient publish failure.

* fix(codex): bind Windows shim refresh rollback and recovery to observed identities

Publication keeps a linked entry only if it is the created stage, and withdraws a link to a swapped stage (file or symlink) while leaving independent replacements. Restoring the moved wrapper requires the aside to still be the moved file. Automatic revision recovery now refreshes only the admitted obsolete wrappers and first re-verifies every current sibling, so a replacement during the stability wait is never adopted.

* fix(codex): never displace a Windows shim where its replacement cannot be published

The refresh proves hard-link support in the wrapper directory with a throwaway pair before moving the wrapper aside, and if a restore link still fails it falls back to an identity-checked rename onto the empty path, so the launcher never stays missing.

Carried into #7397 (squash dbb908f) on dev with a Co-authored-by trailer, as part of the B5 OAuth/accounts/service hardening bundle. It ships in the next release (2.90.0). Thanks!
