Summary

A Codex client whose routed model metadata is missing or stale can send every MCP tool definition eagerly instead of using deferred discovery. One observed client sent roughly 453k input tokens against a 258,400-token effective window, so it compacted after almost every step.

OpenCodex now detects this and tells the operator, without changing the request:

• When a canonical Codex request (identified by originator, user-agent or x-codex-turn-metadata) declares EAGER_CODEX_MCP_TOOL_WARNING_THRESHOLD (64) or more eager MCP definitions, OpenCodex logs one warning per session. The warning gives the count and the threshold and recommends ocx sync --restart-codex. It logs no tool names, request content or session identifiers. The request is forwarded unchanged and is never refused; this is the owner decision recorded in ADR-0022.
• The count includes top-level tools, including namespaced and flattened declarations and function wrappers. It also includes the current turn's Responses Lite additional_tools and MCP tools that Code Mode renders into the exec description. Code Mode detection reuses the existing codex-rs rendering parser (codeModeRenderedToolNames in code-mode-collab-surface.ts), so examples or quoted text do not count.
• Only the current request's declarations count. A resumed thread resends earlier turns' additional_tools as history, so the current turn starts after the last model output item: an assistant message, a *_call, reasoning or a compaction. A first turn has no model output, so its catalog counts even behind Codex's developer and environment-context messages. Code Mode exec is read bare or inside the Responses Lite functions namespace. Compaction (the endpoint, its V1 handoff and V2 compaction_trigger) counts top-level tools only.
• Deferred tools, small loaded subsets, other clients and wrappers whose names merely contain "codex" are not counted.
• The catalog reference page, structure/catalog.md and ADR-0022 describe the behavior. The test is registered in scripts/test-layout/layout-responses.json.

Verification

All results are from Windows with Bun 1.4.4, on a local merge of this head with dev f8dfc2f8, through bun scripts/test.ts (shared test lock, isolated homes):

• Failing-first: the resumed-thread regression ("a resumed thread's historical eager additional_tools are not counted") fails on the previous head a28e9e68, which returned 400 instead of 200 (15 pass / 1 fail).
• tests/responses/codex-eager-tool-catalog.test.ts (23 cases, including the codex-rs first-turn layout over HTTP and WebSocket and a namespaced exec; these fail on 37cfccdb), plus code-mode-collab-surface, deferred-collab-surface, current-turn-tool-catalog (direct and namespace), responses-compaction, responses-core-modules, file-size-ratchet, test-layout, test-layout-tooling, core-lab-boundary and structure-ssot: 289 pass, 0 fail.
• The diagnostic tests cover: all three Responses URL forms forward with one warning; one warning per session; turn-metadata-only, originator-only and user-agent-only detection; generic wrappers not counted; current versus historical additional_tools; compaction history; deferred and small subsets; Code Mode examples versus rendered sections; and a Codex WebSocket turn that is served and warned once.
• bun run typecheck, bun run privacy:scan and bun run structure:check pass.

NOT RUN: full bun run test, local test:changed, docs-site build. Hosted CI for this head is pending maintainer approval.

Walkthrough

The change adds a per-session warning for canonical Codex requests with at least 64 eager MCP tool definitions. It counts eligible declarations across Responses and compaction inputs, leaves requests unchanged, and documents and tests the warning behavior and deferred discovery guidance.

Changes: Codex eager catalog warning

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Catalog counting and warning src/server/responses/codex-tool-catalog.ts, src/server/responses/code-mode-collab-surface.ts	The helper identifies Codex requests and counts distinct eager MCP names for Responses or compaction. It logs the count and threshold once per session. Code Mode names count only when they appear in eligible exec descriptions.
Responses and compaction wiring src/server/responses/request-prepare.ts, src/server/responses/compact.ts	Responses preparation selects the counting surface based on compaction state and trigger items. The compact handler also calls the warning helper with the compact surface.
Behavior coverage and documentation tests/responses/codex-eager-tool-catalog.test.ts, tests/fixtures/test-layout-expected.json, scripts/test-layout/layout-responses.json, tests/helpers/responses-core-source.ts, docs-site/src/content/docs/reference/configuration/catalog.md, structure/catalog.md, structure/decisions/ADR-0022-routed-tool-discovery-and-hosted-search.md	Integration tests cover request identification, counted declarations, warning behavior, and request forwarding. Documentation and the ADR describe the threshold, exclusions, compaction behavior, and deferred discovery guidance.

Merge Risk: Low · previous review 019bc

Requests remain forwarded, but some Codex sessions can miss the catalog warning or receive it repeatedly. The remaining impact is limited to diagnostic reliability, so merging is reasonable with follow-up ownership.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "fix(responses): warn once per session on eagerly expanded Codex MCP catalogs" matches the main change. The changeset adds a one-time-per-session warning for canonical Codex requests that declare 64 or more eager MCP tool definitions, and the raw summary and PR objectives confirm this. The title names the scope (responses), the behavior (warn once per session), and the trigger (eager Codex MCP catalogs). It does not describe every detail, such as the Code Mode counting or the ADR, which is acceptable. The title is 76 characters, which is slightly long but still readable.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 50.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 14 functions across 6 files. (1 skipped: 1 unsupported.)

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Add a test for an originator-only Codex refusal.

105-114: Trivial · Maintainability & Code Quality · Quick win

Add a test for an originator-only Codex refusal.

The detector treats originator: codex_cli_rs as a Codex signal. No test in this file sends that header alone. post() always pairs originator with user-agent, and the canonical positive test sends user-agent alone. A change that removed originator from the detector would leave every test in this file passing. A test that sends only the canonical originator and expects the 400 refusal closes that gap.

🧪 Suggested test

     expect(response.status).toBe(400);
     expect(await response.json()).toMatchObject({ error: { code: "codex_catalog_reload_required" } });
     expect(upstreamCalls).toBe(0);
   });

[Ingwannu]

Thanks for the detailed write-up. Requesting changes for one correctness issue and one owner decision. Code CI has also not run on this head yet: Cross-platform CI and Catalog async contracts are still action_required.

Blocking

1. src/server/responses/codex-tool-catalog.ts:34-44: on the Responses surface the guard counts every additional_tools item in input. Line 34 calls currentTurnWireToolCatalogBody(body, undefined) on the raw inbound body, before any REPLAY_HISTORICAL_ITEM provenance or replay prefix exists, so the helper returns the whole body unchanged. The PR's own docs (docs-site/.../catalog.md:18-21, structure/catalog.md) and the compaction path treat input additional_tools as history. The Responses path does not. Concrete trigger: a thread that once carried a 64+ eager catalog is resumed after ocx sync --restart-codex, and its first request on a new connection resends full history. Every such turn is refused again, so the recovery the error message recommends does not recover the session. Please count only current-turn declarations, or show why Responses-path history cannot contain these items. Add a regression where a historical eager additional_tools item precedes a current turn with a small catalog and the request is still dispatched.

Needs maintainer decision

2. src/server/responses/request-prepare.ts:256-259: this is a new hard-refusal admission policy. It applies to all Codex traffic, including native passthrough, with a fixed threshold of 64 and no config opt-out. Can any supported Codex version or configuration legitimately send 64+ eager MCP tools while its model metadata is correct (for example an older client, or tool search turned off)? If so, every turn returns 400 and the suggested remedy does not apply. Please add evidence for the supported range, and consider an escape hatch or a warn-only mode. Record the decision in ADR-0022, which structure/catalog.md links as the decision record, rather than only in structure prose.

Non-blocking

3. scripts/test-layout/layout.json:729: the new entry is packed onto the codex-tool-mode.test.ts line inside the codex-integration block, which keeps the file at 1999 lines. Please register it in the existing scripts/test-layout/layout-responses.json shard next to current-turn-tool-catalog-*.test.ts instead.
4. Tests: Responses Lite additional_tools normally arrives over the Codex Desktop WebSocket path, where identity comes only from the handshake headers (x-codex-turn-metadata is carried in client_metadata). Please add a WebSocket refusal case, plus an originator-only refusal case as CodeRabbit suggested.
5. src/server/responses/codex-tool-catalog.ts:21-23: Code Mode detection depends on the literal strings "ALL_TOOLS" and "V8", and it re-implements the declare const tools: { X( parsing that already exists in src/server/responses/code-mode-collab-surface.ts. Consider reusing that helper.
6. The branch is 13 commits behind dev. Please rebase before re-requesting review.

[Ingwannu]

@lidge-jun owner decision needed here: this adds a hard HTTP 400 refusal for Codex requests whose MCP catalog is eagerly expanded, with no opt-out and no ADR. See my review above for the correctness issue on the Responses path. Do we want this as a refusal at all, or as a warning/diagnostic?

[lidge-jun]

@Ingwannu, here is the owner decision on your question: warning/diagnostic only.

An eagerly expanded Codex MCP catalog is a valid request and keeps working exactly as before. OpenCodex now forwards it unchanged and logs one warning per session with the count and the threshold. The threshold is the named constant EAGER_CODEX_MCP_TOOL_WARNING_THRESHOLD = 64. No tool names, request content or session identifiers are logged. The reasoning is recorded in ADR-0022.

Maintainer push 37cfccdb, pushed with --no-verify; validation is in the PR description, and the commit carries Co-authored-by: atinseau. Your review items:

1. Historical additional_tools on the Responses path: fixed. Only the current turn counts: declarations directly ahead of the last user input, or after it. I first added a regression with a historical eager item followed by a current small catalog. It failed on a28e9e68, returning 400 instead of 200, and now passes. A second case covers a current turn with no declaration.
2. Hard refusal: removed, per the decision above. Nothing is refused, including native passthrough, so no opt-out is needed.
3. Layout: moved. The test is registered in scripts/test-layout/layout-responses.json next to the other current-turn catalog tests, and the packed layout.json line is reverted.
4. Tests: added. There is an originator-only case and a Codex WebSocket turn whose identity comes only from the handshake headers. That turn is served and produces one warning.
5. Code Mode detection: changed. It now reuses the codex-rs rendering parser through a new codeModeRenderedToolNames export in code-mode-collab-surface.ts, instead of the ALL_TOOLS/V8 literals and a second declaration regex.
6. Rebase: not done. I did not rebase. The branch merges cleanly with dev, and the checks above ran on that merge.

Validation on the merge with dev: 286 pass / 0 fail across 12 focused files, and typecheck, privacy:scan and structure:check pass. Could you take another look?

Deduplicate sessionless warnings per logical request.

When two sessionless Codex clients send large compact catalogs, the first fills the shared anonymous slot and suppresses the second client’s warning. Use request-scoped deduplication when no session identity exists, and preserve it across compact replays.

• First turn missed. A real Responses Lite first turn sends the catalog, then two developer messages, then a user-role environment-context message, then the prompt. Walking back from the last user input stopped at the environment-context message, so the catalog counted 0. The current turn now starts after the last model output item: an assistant message, any *_call, reasoning, or a compaction. A first turn has none of these, so its catalog counts. A resumed thread's earlier declarations are still history.
• Namespaced exec skipped. Responses Lite nests Code Mode exec inside the functions namespace, and that path was skipped. It is now read whether bare or namespaced.

The new tests cover the codex-rs first-turn layout over HTTP and WebSocket, a resumed thread in that layout, and a namespaced exec. The three positive cases fail on 37cfccdb.

On a merge with dev, the 12 focused files give 289 pass / 0 fail. Typecheck, structure:check and privacy:scan pass. structure/catalog.md is updated to match.

Maintainer push 019bc89a (--no-verify, Co-authored-by: atinseau). An independent review of 0de3b6aa found one way the diagnostic could still change a request.

collectEagerMcpTools recursed into nested namespaces with no depth limit. A Codex-identified body nested about 20,000 levels deep overflowed the stack, and the request failed with HTTP 500 where dev forwards it.

The fix:

• Codex namespaces are only one level deep, so the counter now reads top-level namespaces only.
• warnEagerCodexToolCatalog now ignores any counting failure, so the diagnostic can never change the request it observes.

New tests:

• A 25,000-deep body neither throws nor counts. It failed with RangeError before the fix.
• A namespace nested inside a namespace is not counted.
• History whose last model output is a tool call, reasoning or a compaction keeps the earlier catalog out of the count. These pin the turn boundary; dropping *_call from it now fails a test.

On a merge with dev, the 12 focused files give 294 pass / 0 fail. Typecheck, structure:check and privacy:scan pass.

Count the fresh Responses Lite catalog before replayed calls.

Codex 0.166.0 prepends a fresh additional_tools catalog before the replayed input. If that input contains a tool call, this scan drops the catalog. A resumed session without an earlier warning can therefore miss the diagnostic. Distinguish the fresh prefix from historical declarations and update the continuation test.

@atinseau, the maintainer commits 37cfccdb, 0de3b6aa and 019bc89a implement the owner's decision: a warning only, never a refusal. An independent review approved the exact head 019bc89a. Hosted CI for that head has been approved.

The readiness gate moved the PR back to draft because new commits were pushed. The checklist is your attestation, so please review 019bc89a and tick the four boxes if you agree. Merge also waits on Ingwannu's re-review.

[lidge-jun]

Maintainer judgment: hold (not merging yet)

Reviewed at 019bc89a while taking over the orphaned review lane. The direction is right: after the maintainer decision the hard refusal became a warn-only diagnostic that forwards the request unchanged, with no config, CLI or dashboard change, and the earlier review points (current-turn counting, ADR, WebSocket and originator-only tests, layout shard) are addressed. Four things keep it from merging:

1. Conflict with dev in src/server/responses/request-prepare.ts: dev added image detection where the warning is inserted and now expands previous_response_id replay later in the same function. When resolving, keep both and move the catalog count after expandPreviousResponseInput and its provenance, so replayed history is excluded by construction rather than by the "after the last model output" scan (today the call receives the raw body with replayPrefixLength undefined).
2. One anonymous slot for every sessionless caller. sessionLaneIdFromRequest(headers) ?? "" (codex-tool-catalog.ts ~L101) means the first client without a session id suppresses the warning for every later one. Key the anonymous case per request (or skip deduplication when there is no session).
3. "Once per session" is not what the bounded set does. Evicting the oldest of 1,024 sessions lets a still-active session warn again. Either tie the entry to the session lifecycle or say in the message that deduplication is bounded.
4. A resumed Codex session can miss the diagnostic. The scan keeps only additional_tools after the last model-output item, so a fresh additional_tools prefix that precedes replayed tool calls is dropped. Point 1 fixes this structurally; add the continuation-shaped test either way.

Docs: the merged structure/catalog.md loses two dev paragraphs (the src/codex/mac-app-bundle.ts sentence and the Qoder discovery paragraph) and the PR head already sits at the 600-line sizeBudgetLines budget, so restoring them needs a trim in the same section.

Once those land, it needs a fresh review and exact-head CI.

[lidge-jun]

Maintainer judgment: merge

Head reviewed: 338f04bc5d560b8f51a2d9bbecf79d1481dc0666. It contains atinseau's commits, two dev merges (1c5500fa6, acb10f0b0) and maintainer fixes 4679c29af, 9e4d8a092, a7ab21c8a and 338f04bc5. Carried under the owner rule that valuable PRs are finished in-house.

Value. When a Codex client's model metadata is missing or stale, it sends every MCP tool definition eagerly, so each prompt gets much larger. When a canonical Codex request carries 64 or more eager MCP definitions, the proxy now logs one warning that names the count and the threshold, then forwards the request unchanged. Operators get one actionable line instead of an invisible cost. The maintainer decision was warn-only, never a refusal. No other open PR covers this.

User-visible change. The only new output is the log line. It shows once per session, or once per request when the client sends no session identity, and it carries no tool names, request bodies or identifiers. The forwarded body is byte-identical. Config, defaults, CLI and dashboard are unchanged. The behavior is documented in docs-site/.../reference/configuration/catalog.md, ADR-0022 and structure/catalog.md.

No regression for existing users. The diagnostic runs inside a try/catch and cannot change or fail a request. Review rounds found these defects, each fixed with a failing-first test:

• The dev-merge conflict in request-prepare.ts: counting now runs after previous-response expansion, and dev's image detection and replay code are intact.
• Bounded dedup evicted active sessions. It is now an LRU that refreshes on every request a warned session sends.
• Sessionless callers shared one suppression slot. Each now warns once per logical request.
• A fresh additional_tools prefix before replayed calls was missed.
• A client that resends its whole stored window under previous_response_id lost the warning. previousResponseRestoredPrefixLength now excludes only history the proxy itself restored.
• The remedy text named ocx sync --restart-codex, which cannot restart a healthy install. It now names ocx system codex-restart --yes.
• MCP tools inside the reserved functions group were not counted.

src/responses/state.ts sits exactly at its ratchet cap of 1371 lines.

Windows. No platform-specific code changed.

Evidence.

• Fresh independent review of this exact head (DeepSeek via combo/deepseek-flash-pool): PASS-WITH-NITS. It ran live probes against startServer with a local upstream, including a 1,025-session LRU run, a byte-identical forwarded body, no double warning for combo or compaction, and the client-resent and restored-history cases. Its two low nits are left as follow-ups: the rewording of an existing structure/catalog.md paragraph, and a test reset seam for the module-level dedup state.
• My own runs on this head, in an isolated home: 260 pass / 0 fail across the 7 catalog, continuation and compaction files. Typecheck, structure:check, privacy:scan, the file-size ratchet and the layout guard are clean.
• CI: all 33 checks pass on this head.

NOT RUN: full bun run test; macOS and Windows lanes.

Count oversized Code Mode catalogs instead of treating them as empty

For a canonical Codex request whose expanded exec.description exceeds 1,048,576 characters, renderedNestedTools() immediately returns [] because of its existing MAX_DESCRIPTION_LENGTH guard. Reusing it here therefore makes eagerCodexMcpToolCount() report zero: a dependency-free probe with 64 complete rendered MCP sections counted 64 below that limit and zero above it. These oversized catalogs are precisely the payload-inflation case this diagnostic is intended to catch, yet they receive no warning. Use a bounded counting strategy that can diagnose valid catalogs above this limit, and add regression coverage for that boundary.
