Summary

  • Adds local plugins: ocx start imports *.ts / *.js / *.mjs from $OPENCODEX_HOME/plugins/ before the server binds. A plugin default-exports { name?, setup(context) }.
  • Adds one core-owned seam, src/plugins/upstream-hooks.ts. A plugin can register a synchronous rewriter that sees every provider send after the transport is chosen (sendWithConnectionPolicy for HTTP, and codexWsUpstreamFetch once per Codex WebSocket exchange, before the pool lookup), and may change the URL or headers. This lets an operator put a local sidecar, such as a context-compression proxy, in front of providers without patching the core.
  • With no plugin installed the send path is unchanged: the seam imports nothing and returns the original objects without allocating.
  • Failure containment:
    • a throwing rewriter has its edits to that send undone, is disabled for the rest of the process, and the send continues unmodified;
    • a plugin whose setup throws, times out (5 s, for setup that yields) or has the wrong shape is skipped, its hooks are removed, and its context stops accepting registrations;
    • an unreadable plugin directory is reported rather than treated as empty;
    • the proxy always starts.
  • Trust boundary: the loader refuses symbolic links and any plugin file or plugins directory that is owned by another user or writable by group or others, and requires every ancestor of the resolved plugin directory to be owned by the user or root and not group/other-writable unless sticky (OpenSSH StrictModes rule), so a checked path cannot be swapped before import (POSIX). On Windows only the file type is checked (documented). OCX_PLUGINS=0 disables loading for one start.
  • startServer stays synchronous. Plugins are awaited in the CLI start path, before startServer.
  • Rewrites run after routing, account selection and pacing, so they do not alter routing decisions, retry budgets or request logs. A send rewritten onto loopback dials directly on both transports (no provider proxy, no HTTP_PROXY); other rewrites follow egress resolved against the rewritten URL. The WebSocket reuse identity includes the dialled destination, rewritten headers and proxy, so pooled sockets pass the rewriter and are never reused across destinations or with stale headers.
  • Docs: structure/ops/plugins.md (new src/plugins/ area), plus the user guide guides/local-plugins with a sidebar entry.

Verification

  • bun run typecheck: pass
  • Focused, on the current head: the plugin tests plus the 78 test files importing the send-path, proxy and egress modules (fetch-helpers, upstream-retry, codex-ws-*, ws-upstream, request-transport, messages-native, chat-native, provider-egress, proxy-env), and test-layout, test-layout-tooling, core-lab-boundary, structure-ssot: 2436 pass, 1 skip, 1 fail. The plugin tests also pass through bun run test (the repo runner's nested temp roots). The failure is codex-runtime.test.ts › resolveCodexRuntime > treats missing persisted and resolved versions as the same selection, which also fails on unmodified dev on this machine.
  • bun run test:changed on the first revision (26,462 tests across 1,298 files): 26,395 pass, 46 skip, 21 fail. The 21 failures are in 8 service/ownership/WSL-home, native-toggle and remote-workspace-runner files. Re-running those 8 files alone gives identical results with and without this change (313 pass, 2 fail on both); the extra failures come from those suites interacting with a real installed opencodex service on the test machine.
  • bun run structure:check, bun run privacy:scan, cd docs-site && bun run build: pass
  • End-to-end on the current head: an isolated instance (temporary HOME / OPENCODEX_HOME / CODEX_HOME) with a plugin redirecting Codex traffic to a loopback sidecar and logging each rewrite, driven by Codex CLI exec / exec resume:
    • HTTP (source on Bun 1.3.14, below the WS relay minimum): 2 turns rewritten and served through the sidecar.
    • Codex WebSocket (build:standalone, Bun 1.4.0): 2 turns rewritten to ws://127.0.0.1:8787/....
    • Pooled socket: a tool-calling turn made two upstream WS requests; the second shows codexWsStage.reused: true, and the plugin logged both.
  • Full bun run test was not run separately; the remaining scope is left to CI.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.
  • Docs or release notes were updated when needed.

Review readiness checklist

This PR stays in draft until every box below is ticked. Tick all four boxes once the requirements are met:

  • Required local validation passed; commands, results, and any full-suite exception are documented.

  • I pushed my PR to a recent dev commit (at most 10 behind; a maintainer may still ask for the exact tip before merge).

  • I resolved all correct Codex and CodeRabbit findings.

  • My PR is ready for review.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added support for local JavaScript and TypeScript plugins that can customize upstream HTTP and WebSocket destinations and headers.
    • Plugins load at startup, with checks for unsafe files and directories. Loading can be disabled with OCX_PLUGINS=0; setup errors and timeouts are reported without preventing other plugins or the proxy from starting.
    • Loopback connections bypass proxies, and WebSocket connections are reused only when their destination and headers match.
  • Documentation
    • Added a local plugins guide to the Guides sidebar and operator documentation, covering setup, loading, and security checks.

`ocx start` now imports `$OPENCODEX_HOME/plugins/*.{ts,js,mjs}` before the
server binds. A plugin default-exports `{ name?, setup(context) }` and can
register an upstream rewriter that runs synchronously at the physical send:
fetchWithHeaderTimeout, fetchWithAttemptDeadline and the CodexWsSession dial.
This lets a local sidecar (for example a compression proxy) sit in front of
providers without editing the core.

- upstream-hooks.ts imports nothing; with no plugin the send is untouched.
- A throwing rewriter is disabled and the send continues unmodified.
- The loader refuses files owned by other users or writable by group/others,
  bounds setup to 5s, removes hooks from a failed setup, and honours
  OCX_PLUGINS=0.
- Documented in structure/ops/plugins.md and docs-site guides/local-plugins.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds local plugin loading before server startup and a registry for HTTP and Codex WebSocket rewrites. Rewritten destinations affect HTTP connection and egress decisions, WebSocket dialing, and socket reuse identity. Tests and documentation cover plugin loading and rewrite behavior.

Changes

Local plugins and upstream rewriting

Layer / File(s) Summary
Upstream rewriter registry
src/plugins/upstream-hooks.ts, tests/lib/plugin-upstream-hooks.test.ts, docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/local-plugins.md
The registry runs rewriters in order, rolls back edits and disables a rewriter that throws, and supports unregistering registrations. It handles loopback WebSocket proxy selection. Tests cover registry behavior, and the guide describes the plugin context and rewrite API.
Plugin discovery, setup, and reporting
src/plugins/loader.ts, src/cli/index.ts, tests/lib/plugin-loader.test.ts, scripts/test-layout/layout.json, tests/fixtures/test-layout-expected.json, docs-site/astro.config.mjs, docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/local-plugins.md, structure/INDEX.md, structure/manifest.json, structure/ops/plugins.md
The loader discovers and checks plugin files, applies a setup timeout, removes registrations after setup failures, and reports results. The CLI loads plugins before starting the server. Tests and documentation cover these behaviors and link to the plugin guide.
HTTP and WebSocket send integration
src/server/responses/fetch-helpers.ts, src/server/responses/codex-ws-pool.ts, src/server/responses/codex-ws-request.ts, src/server/responses/ws-upstream.ts, tests/lib/plugin-upstream-hooks.test.ts, tests/responses/responses-fetch-helpers-boundary.test.ts, docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/local-plugins.md, structure/ops/plugins.md
HTTP sends rewrite destinations and headers before connection and egress decisions. WebSocket dials use rewritten destinations, headers, and proxy settings before session selection. The WebSocket reuse identity includes the dial destination. Tests and documentation describe these paths.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 6bfe9

The guide slightly overstates which headers must match for WebSocket reuse, which may confuse plugin authors. The correction is bounded and the remaining supplied evidence indicates low merge risk.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 6bfe9

An accepted plugin can import another local file without that file receiving the plugin ownership and permission checks. If another user can edit such a file, it could run with the proxy's credentials at startup. No affected installation or dependency is established, but the potential impact warrants review.

Retained concerns

  • High · security · inferred: Trust checks cover discovered plugin entry files, not files those plugins import. A writable or otherwise untrusted imported helper could execute with the proxy's credentials despite the entry-file refusal rules.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — A plugin or imported dependency executing in the proxy process can affect provider sends handled by that process, including HTTP traffic and eligible Codex WebSocket exchanges. The supplied evidence does not establish an installation's tenants, service privileges, or network reachability.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — If a trusted entry plugin imports a helper that another local user can edit, the helper is loaded without the entry-file ownership and mode check. Its code would run at startup under the proxy's identity. No such helper or affected installation was identified.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The loader refuses symlink or unsafe discovered entries and checks POSIX directory ancestry. These controls materially constrain direct replacement of a plugin entry, but do not extend to its imports; on Windows, ownership and mode checks are absent.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Failed setup closes future hook registration and unregisters completed registrations. It does not cancel the plugin's own asynchronous work; likewise, a synchronous rewriter runs in-process rather than behind an isolation boundary.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Make the trust decision cover the full executable import closure, or constrain plugin imports to a separately secured dependency tree. Validate the same boundary under Windows filesystem permissions if plugins are supported there.

In `@docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/local-plugins.md`:
- Line 58: Update the `target.url` assignment in the plugin example to include
`upstream.search` after `upstream.pathname`, preserving query parameters when
forwarding requests to the sidecar.

In `@src/plugins/loader.ts`:
- Line 130: Update the setup handling around plugin.setup and withTimeout so the
five-second limit is not presented as interrupting synchronous work: either run
setup in a terminable execution context or clarify that SETUP_TIMEOUT_MS applies
only to setup that yields asynchronously. Ensure the public guide states the
same limitation.
- Line 130: Update the plugin setup context used by `plugin.setup` in the loader
so it becomes inactive before the timeout or failure catch block cleans up
registrations. Make `registerUpstreamRewriter` and `onShutdown` reject or
immediately undo calls made through an inactive context, and add a regression
test proving a setup that resumes after timeout cannot leave registrations
active.
- Around line 63-65: Update listPluginFiles so it returns an empty list only
when readdirSync fails with ENOENT; propagate other errors, including EACCES and
ENOTDIR, to loadAndReportOcxPlugins so they are reported to the operator.
- Line 128: Update the plugin shutdown-hook registration in the loader to use a
file-specific key instead of `plugin:${name}`, while retaining `name` for log
display; add a test that loads two plugins with the same name and verifies both
teardown callbacks run.

In `@src/plugins/upstream-hooks.ts`:
- Around line 64-68: Snapshot target.url and target.headers before each upstream
rewriter call, then restore both values in the catch block before disabling the
rewriter so later rewriters and the physical send receive the unmodified target.
Add a test where a rewriter mutates both fields and then throws.

In `@src/server/responses/codex-ws-session.ts`:
- Around line 16-17: Update proxy selection in the WebSocket upstream flow so it
uses the destination returned by rewriteUpstreamRecord before choosing a proxy;
bypass proxying for an explicitly local rewritten destination. Apply the same
destination-aware decision to pooled and private sessions.

Addresses the CodeRabbit review on lidge-jun#5896.

- Move the HTTP rewrite from fetchWithHeaderTimeout/fetchWithAttemptDeadline
  into sendWithConnectionPolicy. Rewriting before the transport choice hid the
  chatgpt.com origin from the Codex WebSocket selection and pushed Codex turns
  onto HTTP; egress now also follows the rewritten destination. Nested passes
  rewrite once via an init mark, like EGRESS_DECIDED.
- WebSocket dials redirected to loopback drop the caller's proxy, which was
  chosen for the original destination and cannot reach local loopback.
- Undo a rewriter's edits to the target when it throws.
- Report plugin directory read failures other than ENOENT.
- Key shutdown hooks by plugin file, not display name.
- Close a plugin's context when setup fails or times out, so a setup that
  resumes later cannot register; state that the deadline only bounds setup
  that yields.
- Guide example keeps the upstream query string.

이 PR은 ocx start가 켜질 때 $OPENCODEX_HOME/plugins/ 안의 ts, js, mjs 파일을 읽어 프록시 프로세스 안에서 실행하게 한다. 플러그인은 프로바이더로 요청이 나가기 직전, 주소와 헤더를 바꿀 수 있다. 코어를 고치지 않고 내 컴퓨터의 압축 프록시 같은 프로그램을 앞에 두려고 만든 자리다.

플러그인 폴더가 없으면 아무 일도 없다. 파일 하나가 깨져도 그 파일만 건너뛰고 프록시는 켜진다. 베이스 브랜치는 dev다. 아직 초안이고, 준비 체크리스트의 마지막 두 칸은 비어 있다.

src/plugins/upstream-hooks.ts:113 - 웹소켓을 127.0.0.1이나 localhost로 바꾸면 회사 프록시를 빼고 직접 연결한다. HTTP는 그 예외가 없다. src/server/responses/fetch-helpers.ts:177 은 바뀐 주소에 원래 나가기 설정을 그대로 적용한다. 프로바이더 프록시가 없더라도 전역 HTTP_PROXY가 있으면 그 프록시를 탄다. 가이드의 http://127.0.0.1:9000 예시는 noProxy에 내 컴퓨터가 없을 때 로컬 프로그램에 닿지 않는다.

src/server/responses/fetch-helpers.ts:264 - 플러그인이 주소를 고치기 전에, 원래 주소로 프록시 설정을 먼저 검사한다. 원래 주소 설정이 잘못이면 사이드카로 돌리기 전에 요청이 거절된다.

src/server/responses/codex-ws-session.ts:16 - 웹소켓 플러그인은 소켓을 새로 만들 때만 돈다. 풀은 바꾸기 전 주소로 그 소켓을 기억한다. 한 번 로컬로 열린 소켓은 다음 턴에서 플러그인을 다시 거치지 않고 재사용된다.

src/server/responses/fetch-helpers.ts:158 - 주소가 문자열이나 URL일 때만 고친다. Request 객체면 플러그인이 주소를 못 고친다. 185번 줄은 그때도 이미 고쳤다는 표시를 남긴다. 그 전송은 나중에 다시 이 함수를 통과해도 플러그인을 타지 않는다.

src/plugins/loader.ts:82 - 권한 검사는 statSync다. 심볼릭 링크는 링크가 아니라, 가리키는 파일로 본다. 플러그인 폴더의 소유자와 폴더 쓰기 권한은 보지 않는다. 폴더에 파일을 넣을 수 있는 다른 사용자가, 내 소유이고 권한이 좁은 파일로 링크를 걸면 그 파일이 플러그인으로 실행된다.

src/plugins/loader.ts:87 - 윈도우에서는 이 검사를 바로 통과시킨다. 폴더 안의 파일이면 실행한다.

src/plugins/loader.ts:159 - setup이 5초 안에 끝나지 않으면 실패로 보고 훅은 지운다. 이미 시작한 setup 함수는 멈추지 않는다. 그 함수가 연 포트나 타이머는 프로세스에 남는다.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

이 코드는 운영자가 직접 넣은 파일을 프록시 권한으로 실행한다. 바뀐 주소의 프로그램은 프로바이더에게 가던 자격증명을 그대로 받는다. 서명도 다운로드도 없다. 이 저장소가 그 방식을 공식 확장으로 받을지 정하면 된다.

#3463은 요청 본문을 어댑터 앞에서 고치는 초안이다. 이번 PR은 길이 정해진 뒤 주소와 헤더를 고친다. 확장 지점을 둘 다 둘지는 여기서 정하면 된다.

윈도우 사용자를 이 기능의 대상으로 볼지도 정해야 한다. 지금은 POSIX에서만 소유자와 권한을 본다.

너의 추천

HTTP도 내 컴퓨터 주소로 바뀌면 웹소켓처럼 프록시를 끄고 직접 붙이는 쪽이 맞다. 그래야 가이드의 사이드카가 프록시 있는 환경에서 동작한다.

심볼릭 링크는 거절하고, 플러그인 폴더의 주인과 쓰기 권한도 파일과 같이 본다. 윈도우를 빼려면 가이드에 그 제한을 한 줄로 적으면 된다.

합치기 전에 로컬 사이드카로 HTTP와 Codex 웹소켓을 각각 한 번씩 확인하면 된다. 작성자도 두 번째 커밋은 그 확인을 하지 않았다고 적었다. 풀에 들어간 웹소켓이 플러그인을 다시 타는지도 같이 본다.

Addresses the maintainer review and the second CodeRabbit pass on lidge-jun#5896.

- HTTP sends rewritten onto loopback now dial directly (`proxy: false`,
  egress marked decided), matching the Codex WebSocket; provider proxies and
  HTTP_PROXY cannot reach a local sidecar.
- The Codex WebSocket rewrite moved from the CodexWsSession constructor to
  codexWsUpstreamFetch, before the pool lookup, and the dialled destination
  joins codexWsReuseIdentity. Every exchange, including one on a pooled
  socket, now passes the plugin, and a socket is never reused for another
  destination. CodexWsSession is back to its dev shape.
- Request inputs are rewritten too; the rewritten mark is only set after a
  rewrite pass actually ran.
- The loader uses lstat: symbolic links are refused, and the plugins
  directory itself must be owned by the user and not group/other-writable.
- Each onShutdown call gets its own key (plugin:<file>#<n>), so a plugin
  can register several teardowns.
- Docs: per-rewriter rollback, Windows skips owner/mode checks, a timed-out
  setup keeps running, loopback sends bypass proxies, WS rewrite per turn.

Thanks for the review. Code findings are addressed in 0dafeba; details below, plus the end-to-end check you asked for.

Code findings

  • upstream-hooks.ts:113 / fetch-helpers.ts:177: agreed. An HTTP send rewritten onto loopback (127.0.0.1, ::1, localhost) now dials directly: sendWithConnectionPolicy passes proxy: false and marks egress decided, so neither a provider proxy nor HTTP_PROXY applies. This matches the WebSocket path. Other rewritten destinations still resolve egress against the rewritten URL. Test: an HTTP send redirected to loopback dials directly, bypassing any proxy.
  • fetch-helpers.ts:264 (pre-dispatch refusal on the original URL): kept on purpose. That check validates the provider's configured route (providers.<name>.proxy / noProxy) against the destination the provider is configured for. If a plugin could redirect around it, the same misconfiguration would pass or fail depending on whether a plugin is installed, and the error would reappear as soon as the plugin is removed or its sidecar goes down (the rewriter is fail-open). structure/ops/plugins.md now states this. Happy to change it if you prefer the other trade-off.
  • codex-ws-session.ts:16 (pooled sockets skipping the plugin): fixed. The WebSocket rewrite moved out of the CodexWsSession constructor into codexWsUpstreamFetch, and it runs once per exchange before the pool lookup. The dialled destination is now part of codexWsReuseIdentity, so every exchange, including one on a pooled socket, passes the rewriter, and a socket opened for one destination is never reused for another. CodexWsSession is back to its dev shape. Test: the Codex WebSocket reuse identity changes with the dialled destination.
  • fetch-helpers.ts:158/185 (Request inputs): fixed. Request inputs are rewritten too (rebuilt with new Request(url, input)), and the rewritten mark is only set after a rewrite pass actually ran. Test: a Request input is rewritten too.
  • loader.ts:82 (symlinks, directory): fixed. The loader uses lstat, refuses symbolic links for both files and the plugins directory, and applies the owner and not-group/other-writable checks to the directory as well as each file. Tests: a symbolic link is refused even when it points to a trusted file, a plugin directory writable by group or others is refused.
  • loader.ts:87 (Windows): documented. The guide and structure/ops/plugins.md state that owner/mode checks are POSIX-only and that on Windows only the file type is checked.
  • loader.ts:159 (timed-out setup keeps running): documented in both places. Resources a timed-out setup already opened are not closed, and the guide advises starting long-lived resources only after the work that can fail. Its context is closed, so it cannot register hooks afterwards.

End-to-end (isolated instance on port 10197 with temporary HOME, OPENCODEX_HOME and CODEX_HOME; a local plugin redirecting chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/responses to a loopback compression sidecar on 127.0.0.1:8787 and logging each rewrite; Codex CLI exec + exec resume)

  • HTTP: running from source on Bun 1.3.14, below the WS relay minimum, so Codex turns take HTTP. 2 turns in one session: both rewritten to http://127.0.0.1:8787/..., the sidecar counted both requests, correct replies.
  • Codex WebSocket: compiled standalone build (build:standalone, Bun 1.4.0). 2 turns in one session (exec + exec resume --last): both logged by the plugin as websocket ws://127.0.0.1:8787/backend-api/codex/responses, correct replies.
  • Pooled socket: one tool-calling turn (echo via shell) produced two upstream WebSocket requests. The request log shows codexWsStage.reused: false for the first and reused: true for the second, and the plugin log has an entry for each, so the pooled exchange went through the rewriter.

Maintainer decisions

These are yours to make; the author's view, for what it is worth:

  • Scope: the slot only rewrites the destination and headers after routing, so it cannot change which provider, account or model serves a request. It targets operators who already run a local sidecar.
  • feat(server): add pre-adapter request transform hook (#3459) #3463: the two points look complementary rather than competing. feat(server): add pre-adapter request transform hook (#3459) #3463 shapes the request body before the adapter; this one moves an already-built send. Keeping both would mean two plugin hooks with different contracts; they could share this loader if both land.
  • Windows: fine either way. It can stay documented as POSIX-only for the trust checks (current state), or plugin loading can be disabled on Windows until an ACL check exists. Say which you prefer and I will adjust.

Addresses the third CodeRabbit pass on lidge-jun#5896.

- Every ancestor of the resolved plugin directory up to `/` must be owned
  by the user or root and not group/other-writable unless sticky, so no
  other user can swap a checked path before import (OpenSSH StrictModes
  rule). Plugins are imported through the resolved directory.
- The Codex WebSocket reuse identity hashes the rewritten headers, so a
  pooled socket is never reused with stale plugin headers.
- A non-loopback WebSocket rewrite resolves its own proxy route (scheme,
  NO_PROXY), falling back to SSE when that route requires it, via the new
  planCodexWsDial helper.
- Loader tests drop group write on the runner's own nested temp roots,
  which inherit umask 002 on user-private-group systems.

Comment thread src/server/responses/ws-upstream.ts
Addresses the fourth CodeRabbit pass on lidge-jun#5896.

x-codex-turn-state and x-codex-turn-metadata ride in each WebSocket
frame's client_metadata, prepared before the plugin rewrite and
authoritative per exchange; the pool deliberately leaves them out of the
reuse identity. planCodexWsDial now restores their original values after
the rewrite, so a rewriter cannot make the upgrade headers disagree with
the frame, and socket reuse keeps working. The header list is exported
once as CODEX_WS_FRAME_HEADERS and shared by the frame builder and pool.

Owner

Holding approval pending two things: exact-head lifecycle CI, and an explicit owner decision on the full-credential in-process plugin boundary, especially the Windows ACL/ancestor-permission assumptions. POSIX ancestor checks, failure restoration, and rewritten WebSocket pool identity are present in source, but executable CI remains action_required.

@Ingwannu thanks. Since the upstream runs are waiting on maintainer approval, I ran them in my fork against this PR's exact head, 4e6409ffa.

Lifecycle and PR workflows

  • Service lifecycle: success (run 36247477444): linux-systemd, macos-launchd and windows-schtasks all passed. It was dispatched on the head, because its pull_request trigger only fires for PRs into main/dev.
  • Cross-platform CI (PR lane): success (run 36247441993): this head merged into a copy of the current dev tip (ac38d0a43) through a draft mirror PR ([WRONG BRANCH] CI mirror for upstream PR 5896 (do not merge) halysondev/opencodex#1, not for merge). gates, test 1/4–4/4, macos 1/2–2/2, macos widget + bundle, desktop shell, docker smoke, the keyring and npm-global smokes, docs site build and structure gate all passed.
  • React Doctor: success (run 36247441999).

Windows, since the plugin boundary's Windows assumptions are the open question

  • Full workflow_dispatch run with lane=all on the head: success (run 36248497107). All nine windows N/9 shards passed. tests\lib\plugin-loader.test.ts, tests\lib\plugin-upstream-hooks.test.ts and responses-fetch-helpers-boundary ran in them; the POSIX-only ownership and permission cases are skipIf(win32) there. Also green in the same run: macos control, remote helper (Windows/macOS), setup action (Windows/macOS), and the macOS, Linux, keyring and npm-global lanes.
  • For comparison I dispatched the same full run on the plain dev tip ac38d0a43 (run 36248498865). It fails windows 6/9 on three mise launcher target plan cases in tests/update/update-mise-launcher-target.test.ts (8.3 short-path RUNNER~1 vs long path). That file arrived with fix(update): restart mise-managed services onto upgraded versions #5878 and is not on this branch, so it is unrelated to this PR, but it looks like a Windows regression on dev you may want to know about.

Plugin boundary on Windows
I agree this is an owner decision. Today, Windows has no owner or ACL check. Loading is limited to regular, non-symlink files under $OPENCODEX_HOME/plugins, and the guide and structure/ops/plugins.md state that limitation. If you prefer, I can make plugin loading refuse on Windows (skip with a startup notice) until an ACL-based check exists. That is a small change and keeps the POSIX behavior as is.

Freshness
This head is 59 commits behind dev today. I left it untouched so these results stay attached to the head you asked about. I can rebase onto the current tip and rerun the same workflows whenever you want. Say so and I will also apply the Windows gate above if you want it.

lidge-jun added a commit that referenced this pull request Sep 26, 2026
Five non-GUI enhancement PRs are integrated on one branch, with each contributor change in one attributed squash commit.

| PR | Change | Author |
| --- | --- | --- |
| #5954 | Provider/model request concurrency caps and pacing | codingbo |
| #5919 | Opt-in emergency recovery for failed routed compaction | luvs01 |
| #5896 | Local plugin loading and upstream rewrite hooks | halysondev |
| #5147 | Key-scoped CodeBuddy live model roster | mdwsk88 |
| #4740 | Single-pass log query and hoisted passthrough header exclusions | chilung |

Separate integration commits hold pacing leases through physical sends and response-body completion/error/cancel, move the capped management test to a registered sibling, disable Windows plugin auto-loading until ACL trust can be checked, replace automatic plugin failure text with fixed categories, restrict credentialed CodeBuddy failure logs to category/status, and preserve `protocolMode` in the new single-pass log query. The #5954 and #5896 changes to `fetch-helpers.ts` were verified together. Dropped: none.

Security review follow-up at `aa7add2c15`: `9bbf17ade1` refuses ACL-bearing plugin files and path directories on macOS; `124b8564c8` makes the credentialed CodeBuddy roster fetch manual-redirect only; `a99a88acd2` holds one Cursor concurrency lease for the full `runTurn` and documents the turn-level cap; `aa7add2c15` tests that the actual compaction fallback Request strips inbound authorization and account headers. These are new commits on the published branch, with no history rewrite. Three later merge commits (`05ea540d4d`, `ce713c2405`, `6c55cad67d`) bring in landed `dev` work through `e772bdb228`; `3d1d6d1c8c` retains all test registrations below the file-size guard.

Security review focus: `src/server/responses/compaction-recovery-policy.ts` and `compaction-recovery.ts` gate cross-provider replay and strip inbound authorization/account headers; `src/plugins/loader.ts` and `upstream-hooks.ts` govern local-code trust, credential-bearing rewrite hooks and failure logging; `src/server/responses/fetch-helpers.ts` and `ws-upstream.ts` apply rewrites at physical egress; `src/adapters/codebuddy/live-models.ts` sends `X-API-Key` to the canonical config endpoint; `src/codex/catalog/provider-models.ts` emits only bounded failure data; and `src/providers/request-pacing.ts` owns lease lifetime and bounded body cancellation. Independent security re-review of the new head and exact-head CI remain required before merge. A follow-up integration fix `318332e7c4` returns a completed source Kiro account lease before the compaction emergency child can acquire and replace the shared holder, with cap-one, cap-two, and cancellation regressions. The newer Kiro model-catalog `dev` merge is `6c55cad67d`. Follow-up commits `6ea89bb94b`, `71d3dbc9a7`, and `ee9f18ffdd` repair exact-head CI: assert the response send rather than an independently scheduled pool quota probe, use the macOS ACL tools even when GNU coreutils leads PATH and scope plugin-execution tests to supported platforms, and restore Windows sibling cleanup to wait for process exit.

Thanks! This landed on dev through enhancement merge train batch 10B, #5992 (merge 35f267d). Your change is one commit on dev with you as the author and a Co-authored-by trailer. Follow-ups on top: auto-loading stays off on Windows, plugin paths carrying extended ACLs are refused on macOS (/bin/ls -le) and on Linux (getfacl, with a CI proof), and plugin failures log a bounded category instead of raw exception text. Closing since the content is now on dev.
