Summary

Opt-in PAC-fallback mode for the ChatGPT desktop send-unblock intercept, so the app keeps working when opencodex stops.

Merge order: this PR now carries the send-unblock work directly. #5733 was closed unmerged as superseded by this branch (all four of its commits are patch-equivalent here), and the branch has been rebased onto current dev, so every commit in this PR is only this feature's work:

  • 50e6c804-equivalent: the send-unblock intercept (opt-in), its launch watcher, and the relay fixes CodeRabbit found while reviewing this PR (a missing error listener on the WebSocket tunnel between the handshake and attach(), and duplicate test-layout keys);
  • the remaining commits are the PAC work and the RFC 1929 authenticated-SOCKS fix for the WebSocket dial (review by Ingwannu).

What the mode does (chatgptDesktop.pacFallback, default off; only takes effect together with unblockSend):

  • The app is launched with an inline --proxy-pac-url=data:application/x-ns-proxy-autoconfig;base64,... switch instead of the --host-resolver-rules switch (a file:// PAC is ignored by the app, see Verification). The PAC is rewritten at every opencodex start; the watcher script rebuilds the switch from that file at run time.
  • chatgpt.com goes to a new loopback CONNECT entry listener (listener port + 1), which accepts only CONNECT chatgpt.com:443 and splices the bytes onto the existing TLS listener. The splice is backpressure-safe (Bun sockets are unbuffered, so unwritten bytes are queued and the producer paused until drain), and a client that never finishes its head is closed at the deadline.
  • Every other host — and chatgpt.com while opencodex is stopped — follows the system route captured at start, never a hard-coded DIRECT: the scutil --proxy proxies (HTTPS, HTTP, SOCKS5, then DIRECT) in system-proxy mode; the system PAC script itself, embedded in the generated file, when a PAC is configured (the PAC mode of VPN clients such as ShadowsocksX-NG); DIRECT in TUN mode or without a proxy. A system PAC that cannot be read degrades to DIRECT with a startup warning.
  • When opencodex stops, the entry listener dies with it; Chromium's CONNECT is refused and it falls through to the next entry of the PAC answer, so the app keeps working without a restart. Only the send unblock pauses until opencodex is back.
  • ocx chatgpt launch, restore, install-watcher and status follow the configured mode. restore undoes either switch, so it also works after pacFallback was toggled. The watcher refuses to route the app while the entry listener is down.
  • The guide documents the mode in all eight locales.
  • App-server gate ([Bug] Codex App (macOS): send button disabled at quota exhaustion - the #5947 intercept never sees the gate reads (they come from the bundled app-server) #6196), opt-in chatgptDesktop.appServerShim. On some builds the composer's send gate follows what the bundled codex app-server reports to the app over stdio JSON-RPC, and the app-server fetches it with its own HTTP client, so no Chromium switch reaches it. The desktop app picks its server binary from CODEX_CLI_PATH; with the flag, ocx chatgpt launch / the watcher start it with open --env CODEX_CLI_PATH=<launcher>. The launcher runs a stdio shim that starts the real binary with inherited stdin/stderr and filters only its stdout: a line that mentions no rate-limit field is written back as the exact bytes it arrived in, and a plain-quota rateLimitReachedType / ordinaryUsageAllowed is opened (also when a quota window reads 100%) while workspace, credit and spend-control reasons are kept. No environment variable, address or config key changes, so the server's child processes and other Codex clients are unaffected, and the launcher falls back to the real binary if the shim cannot start. The resolver and PAC modes are unchanged; the flag is off by default. The exported app-server protocol schema lists account/rateLimits/read and account/rateLimits/updated as the messages that carry this state; the usage rewrite also drops a plain-quota rate_limit_reached_type on the web-page surface.
  • Write boundary. A malformed chatgptDesktop block (for example { unblockSend: true, port: 65536 }) is now rejected by validateConfigCandidate with schema_invalid: chatgptDesktop.port instead of being silently dropped; a hand-edited file still degrades to off on load.

Verification

  • bun run typecheck, bun run privacy:scan, bun run structure:check, bun run skill:surface:check — pass (re-run on the rebased branch).
  • bun scripts/test-layout/verify.ts --domain chatgpt-unblock — pass (152 tests).
  • bun test ./tests/chatgpt-unblock/ — 152 pass, 0 fail.
  • bun test ./tests/cli/ — 1341 pass (3 env-specific skips), 0 fail (after rebase).
  • bun test ./tests/ci-workflows/ ./tests/test-layout.test.ts ./tests/test-layout-tooling.test.ts — run after rebase; one env-specific flake on a clean re-run, all layout and structure-ssot tests pass.
  • Full suite: left to CI.
  • RFC 1929: bun test ./tests/lib/socks5-handshake.test.ts (12 byte-level tests) and the credentialed-SOCKS relay end-to-end tests in tests/chatgpt-unblock/unblock-ws-relay.test.ts.
  • Regression tests were checked against the old code: the 8 MiB slow-reader tunnel test fails on the old splice (which passes at 64 KiB), the head-deadline test fails without a timeout handler, the listener-release test fails without the cleanup, and the two WebSocket late-error tests throw without the listener.
  • PAC generation was checked against scutil --proxy output on a Mac with a system proxy. Generated PACs are evaluated in a VM, including three ways a system PAC can declare FindProxyForURL.
  • App-server shim, checked against the real bundled codex app-server (26.924): with an exhausted-account usage payload it reports rateLimitReachedType: "rate_limit_reached" directly and null through the shim; workspace_owner_usage_limit_reached is left as sent; on the real account (not exhausted) the RPC output is identical with and without the shim. The same 16 read-only RPCs (account/read, account/usage/read, model/list, plugin/list, skills/list, experimentalFeature/list, ...) run against the real account and live config give identical responses directly and through the shim except two: config/read differs only in key order, app/list only in the random id of a 403 page returned both times. Byte-preservation across chunk boundaries, launcher fail-open, the open --env launch/watch/restore paths and the write-boundary check are covered in tests/chatgpt-unblock/.
  • macOS PAC fallback, measured on the real ChatGPT app (Chromium 154) in an isolated instance (own --user-data-dir, temp CODEX_HOME; the running app and proxy were not touched), counting the app's established TCP connections per route: file:// PAC: 0 via the entry, 0 via the system proxy, 3 direct :443 (the PAC is ignored); http:// PAC with opencodex up: 2 via the entry, 14 via the system proxy; http:// PAC with the listeners stopped: 0 via the entry, 15 via the system proxy. That is why the switch is now an inline data: PAC: with opencodex up 2 via the entry and 14 via the system proxy, with the listeners stopped 0 via the entry and 23 via the system proxy, with no restart and no dependency on opencodex to fetch the script. Headless Chrome 154 shows the same file:// behaviour.
  • Not run: launching the desktop app through the shim on a genuinely exhausted account, and a natural-exhaustion run on a live account showing the composer re-enabled. It needs an account whose quota is really exhausted, which cannot be produced on demand.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.
  • Docs or release notes were updated when needed. (docs-site guide in all eight locales.)
  • Security-sensitive changes were reviewed for secrets, auth, and unsafe defaults. (The entry listener binds 127.0.0.1 only and refuses every request except CONNECT chatgpt.com:443, so it is never a general forward proxy. The embedded system PAC is the script Chromium would run anyway. The PAC file is written 0644 inside the config dir. The feature is off by default; no secrets are logged or stored.)

Review readiness checklist

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This pull request adds an opt-in macOS ChatGPT Desktop integration. It routes ChatGPT traffic through local HTTP and WebSocket relays, rewrites selected quota-related send gates, and adds PAC fallback, launch-watcher, runtime, and CLI controls. It also adds Codex app-server routing, extracts shared SOCKS5 handshake logic, and includes tests and localized guides.

Changes

ChatGPT Desktop Send Unblock

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configuration and response rewriting
src/config/schema/*, src/config/diagnostics.ts, src/types/config.ts, src/chatgpt/desktop-unblock/rewrite.ts, tests/chatgpt-unblock/rewrite.test.ts, tests/chatgpt-unblock/unblock-config-boundary.test.ts
Adds optional chatgptDesktop settings with validation. Rewriting removes quota-related send blocks and opens selected usage gates in matching JSON and SSE responses. Tests cover the rewrite rules, endpoints, and configuration boundary.
Shared SOCKS5 handshake
src/lib/socks5-handshake.ts, src/lib/socks5-fetch.ts, src/chatgpt/desktop-unblock/ws-upstream.ts, tests/lib/socks5-handshake.test.ts, tests/chatgpt-unblock/unblock-ws-relay.test.ts, structure/transports/inventory.md
Extracts SOCKS5 credential parsing and handshake negotiation for reuse by the fetch tunnel and ChatGPT relay. Tests cover authentication, CONNECT replies, and proxy integration.
HTTP, CONNECT, and WebSocket relays
src/chatgpt/desktop-unblock/{listener,entry-proxy,ws-*}.ts, tests/chatgpt-unblock/unblock-{listener,entry-proxy,ws-frame,ws-relay}.test.ts
Adds loopback HTTP/TLS and CONNECT listeners, WebSocket frame handling, and upstream WebSocket relaying. The HTTP listener rewrites matching responses and exposes retained send-block diagnostics.
PAC routing and launch watcher
src/chatgpt/desktop-unblock/{ca-trust,pac,runtime,launch-watcher}.ts, tests/chatgpt-unblock/unblock-{ca-trust,pac,runtime,launch-script,watcher-install}.test.ts
Adds certificate trust inspection, system-proxy and PAC route generation, integration startup and shutdown, and launchd watcher installation, status, and restore handling.
Built-in Codex routing and ownership
src/codex/inject.ts, src/codex/inject/{config-toml,plan,remove}.ts, src/codex/{injected-marker,journal}.ts, tests/chatgpt-unblock/unblock-app-server.test.ts
Adds marker-owned chatgpt_base_url injection for the built-in Codex server. Journal tracking supports removing the injected value while preserving user-owned settings. The app-server listener relays requests and applies the usage-gate rewrite.
CLI, server lifecycle, and guides
src/cli/*, src/server/index/{chatgpt-unblock-lifecycle,optional-listeners}.ts, docs-site/astro.config.mjs, docs-site/src/content/docs/{guides,fr,ja,ko,ru,tr,zh-cn,zh-tw}/chatgpt-desktop.md, test-layout files, structure/*
Adds ocx chatgpt status, watcher, launch, and restore commands and connects the integration to optional-listener startup and shutdown. Adds guides in eight languages and updates test-layout and source-area indexes.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to c6618

If the optional relay fails to start, Codex may retain a URL pointing to an unavailable listener. This bounded risk warrants owner awareness; the four previously identified issues have current-head corrections.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟠 High · up to c6618

In PAC mode, a failure to read the system proxy configuration can let desktop traffic take a direct route instead of the intended proxy route. A separate startup failure can leave Codex configured to use a relay that did not start. Both modes are opt-in, but the first can affect the routing of the entire desktop app.

Retained concerns

  • High · security · inferred: An unreadable configured system PAC does not prevent PAC-mode startup. The replacement route ends in DIRECT, so desktop traffic can bypass a system-PAC proxy policy, particularly when no static proxy entries were captured.
  • Medium · reliability · inferred: Codex startup synchronization can write the derived app-server relay URL even if asynchronous relay startup fails, leaving the configured route pointed at a listener that did not start.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — In PAC mode, failure to load a system PAC can change routing for every destination used by the opted-in desktop app, not only chatgpt.com. Static proxy entries, if captured, precede DIRECT.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — If a configured system PAC is unreadable and the captured static chain does not enforce the same proxy policy, the generated PAC permits direct desktop connections. Startup warns about the condition but continues; the effective exposure depends on the user's network policy and proxy configuration.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — A local caller can supply relay paths and request metadata, but cannot select the production HTTP upstream through the incoming Host header. The relay binds to loopback, and the PAC entry restricts CONNECT to chatgpt.com:443.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Startup failure and Codex configuration synchronization do not share a readiness gate. This can leave a marker-owned loopback route configured after the app-server listener fails to bind; downstream fallback and recovery behavior remain unverified.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Make an unreadable configured system PAC a deliberate routing decision rather than silently generating a DIRECT-capable replacement; verify the behavior through startup, app launch, proxy failure, and restart.
  • proposed — Gate marker-owned Codex URL injection on relay readiness, and define how that URL is restored or cleared after startup failure and shutdown.

리뷰 · 우선순위 70 / 80

ChatGPT 데스크톱 앱은 사용량이 다하면 보내기 버튼을 잠급니다. opencodex가 다른 모델로 대화를 넘겨도, 앱은 chatgpt.com의 사용량 답을 보고 입력창을 막습니다.

이 PR은 맥에서만, 설정을 켠 사람에게, 그 잠금을 푸는 가로채기를 넣습니다. 로컬 리스너가 chatgpt.com인 척하고, 보내기 잠금만 지웁니다. 사용량 숫자와 리셋 시각은 그대로 둡니다. 앱을 열 때 도메인 규칙을 붙이는 감시기도 같이 넣습니다. 이 줄기는 이미 열린 PR #5733과 같습니다. 그 머리 커밋 f7492c49가 이 브랜치에 들어 있습니다.

그 위에 chatgptDesktop.pacFallback을 더합니다. 켜면 도메인 규칙 대신 PAC 파일로 앱을 띄웁니다. chatgpt.com만 루프백의 CONNECT 입구로 가고, 입구는 기존 TLS 리스너에 바이트를 이어 붙입니다. 다른 주소는 파일을 만들 때 scutil --proxy로 읽은 시스템 프록시로 갑니다. 맨 끝은 DIRECT입니다. opencodex가 꺼져 입구가 죽으면, Chromium이 다음 프록시로 넘어가서 앱을 다시 열지 않아도 되게 하려는 변경입니다. 바탕 브랜치는 dev입니다. types.ts와 config.ts를 나누는 변경은 아닙니다.

라인 - src/chatgpt/desktop-unblock/launch-watcher.ts의 entry_ours. 감시기가 입구가 살아 있는지 보는 curl에 요청 주소가 없습니다. 같은 형태의 명령을 실행하면 curl: (2) no URL specified로 끝납니다. --noproxy '*'는 프록시 사용을 전부 건너뜁니다. 테스트가 쓰는 가짜 curl은 첫 두 인자만 보고 성공(0)이나 56으로 끝냅니다. 입구가 떠 있어도 이 검사는 실패합니다. PAC 모드 감시기는 앱을 고쳐서 다시 열지 않고 조용히 빠집니다.

라인 - 같은 파일의 runLaunchScript. ocx chatgpt launch와 ocx chatgpt restore는 스크립트를 만들 때 PAC 모드와 입구 포트를 넘기지 않습니다. 항상 도메인 규칙 모드입니다. pacFallback을 켜도 launch는 --host-resolver-rules로 앱을 띄웁니다. 그 방식은 opencodex가 꺼지면 죽은 루프백으로 계속 보내서, 이 PR이 막으려는 끊김이 그대로 남습니다. restore는 PAC 인자만 있는 앱을 "스위치 없음"으로 봐서, 원래 네트워크로 되돌리지 않습니다. 감시기를 설치할 때만 entryPort를 넘깁니다.

라인 - src/chatgpt/desktop-unblock/entry-proxy.ts의 handleData. CONNECT를 연 뒤 bunConnect가 끝나기 전에 다음 패킷이 오면, 이미 읽은 요청을 비우지 않고 CONNECT를 한 번 더 엽니다. 연결 중이라는 표시가 없습니다. TLS 클라이언트 헬로가 다음 패킷이면 200 Connection established가 소켓에 두 번 나갈 수 있습니다. 그러면 암호 연결이 깨집니다.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

#5733과 이 PR을 둘 다 머지하면 데스크톱 가로채기 전체가 두 번 들어갑니다. PAC를 이 PR로 합칠 계획이면 #5733을 닫으세요. #5733을 먼저 넣을 계획이면 이 브랜치는 PAC 커밋만 남기세요.

PR 본문은 pacFallback이 unblockSend를 켠다고 적습니다. 코드와 테스트는 unblockSend도 참일 때만 PAC를 켭니다. 어느 쪽이 맞는 동작인지 정하세요.

종료 로그는 PAC로 띄운 앱이 죽은 입구를 가리킨다고 경고합니다. chatgpt status는 시스템 체인으로 알아서 넘어간다고 적습니다. 설계 설명은 status 쪽입니다. 경고 문장을 설계와 맞추세요.

이 PR은 초안입니다. 준비 체크는 0/4입니다.

너의 추천

entry_ours에는 검사할 주소로 chatgpt.com을 넣고, --noproxy '*'는 빼세요. launch와 restore에도 설치 경로와 같이 PAC 모드와 입구 포트를 넘기세요. 입구 프록시는 CONNECT를 시작한 순간부터 다음 바이트를 한곳의 대기 버퍼에만 쌓고, 업스트림이 붙은 뒤에 한 번만 넘기세요. #5733과 이 PR 중 하나만 남기세요. 초안 체크를 채운 뒤에 머지하면 됩니다.

Inline comments:
In `@docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/chatgpt-desktop.md`:
- Around line 69-70: Update the ChatGPT Desktop guide and its seven translated
versions to document the opt-in `chatgptDesktop.pacFallback` configuration.
Distinguish system-proxy launch arguments from generated-PAC-URL launches,
explain that PAC fallback can use the captured proxy chain after opencodex
stops, and correct the troubleshooting guidance so it does not imply every
routed app depends on the stopped listener.

In `@scripts/test-layout/layout.json`:
- Around line 1954-1963: Remove duplicate ChatGPT test mappings, retaining
exactly one mapping per test in both JSON objects. In
scripts/test-layout/layout.json (lines 1954-1963), deduplicate the explicit
mappings, including rewrite.test.ts; in tests/fixtures/test-layout-expected.json
(lines 1618-1626), deduplicate each unblock-* test mapping.

In `@src/chatgpt/desktop-unblock/entry-proxy.ts`:
- Around line 41-74: Update handleData and the socket handlers to preserve bytes
when write accepts only part of a chunk: queue each unwritten remainder and
flush it on the destination’s drain event in both tunnel directions, including
leftover bytes. Track the queues in EntryState and wire drain handling for both
sockets so no tunnel data is dropped.
- Around line 84-87: Update the CONNECT success handler that assigns
state.upstream to disable the client socket timeout before writing the 200
response, so the header deadline no longer closes an established tunnel.

In `@src/chatgpt/desktop-unblock/launch-watcher.ts`:
- Around line 489-510: Update runLaunchScript, launchChatgptWithRule, and
restoreChatgptNative to accept and forward PAC-mode options to
buildChatgptUnblockWatcherScript; update the launch and restore call sites in
the CLI to derive and pass the PAC entry port using the existing configuration
logic. In the script’s native-mode app_flagged check, recognize both PAC and
resolver switches so restore removes either launch mode.

In `@src/chatgpt/desktop-unblock/pac.ts`:
- Around line 33-40: Update parseScutilOutput in
src/chatgpt/desktop-unblock/pac.ts (lines 33-40) to parse scutil’s
colon-delimited key/value lines and make the parser accessible to tests or
expose an equivalent string-accepting entry point. In
tests/chatgpt-unblock/unblock-pac.test.ts (lines 4-8), add coverage using the
SCUTIL_SYSTEM_PROXY fixture and assert the resulting chain contains the two
PROXY entries and one SOCKS5 entry at 127.0.0.1:7892.

In `@src/chatgpt/desktop-unblock/ws-relay.ts`:
- Around line 125-134: Update the successful-handshake path in finish to keep an
error listener on the socket until WsRelay.attach installs its handlers, so late
errors cannot become uncaught exceptions. Preserve handling for handshake
failures and ensure the listener remains effective if upgrade fails or the app
disconnects before attach.

In `@src/cli/chatgpt-command.ts`:
- Line 69: Handle the uninstall-watcher action before calling
resolveChatgptUnblockPort in the CLI flow; watcher removal does not require a
port, so it must work even when port resolution would throw. Keep port
resolution for actions that use the intercept port.
- Line 119: Update the direct command paths in `chatgpt-command.ts`: at line
119, pass the selected PAC mode and its entry port through the launch-script
path; at line 128, pass the selected PAC mode to the restore-script path so it
recognizes and removes the PAC switch. Keep the existing resolver-mode behavior
intact.

In `@src/cli/registry.ts`:
- Around line 497-500: Update the `install-watcher` and `launch` help details in
the registry to describe both configuration-dependent launch modes: the
host-resolver rule and the PAC fallback using `--proxy-pac-url`. Keep the
descriptions concise and make clear that the selected mode depends on
configuration.

In `@tests/chatgpt-unblock/unblock-entry-proxy.test.ts`:
- Around line 55-85: Replace the ineffective checks in the end-to-end splice
test with a real round trip over the same TCP socket: connect to the entry
proxy, issue CONNECT, upgrade that socket with TLS, request the unblock
endpoint, and assert the response contains the service id. Also verify
backpressure with a local fake upstream returning a multi-megabyte body, read it
slowly, and assert its byte count and hash match.

In `@tests/chatgpt-unblock/unblock-runtime.test.ts`:
- Around line 58-90: Update the PAC-mode tests to obtain an available base port
by briefly listening on port 0, then use it for the origin and derive the entry
port as base port + 1; in the bind-failure test, occupy that derived entry port.
Remove the unused first Bun.connect call from the connection probe, keeping the
existing probe that verifies the entry accepts connections.

Thanks for the review. All points are addressed on the new head 5b458ee52:

Line findings

  • entry_ours — the probe now fetches http://chatgpt.com/ through the entry as an HTTP proxy, without --noproxy; the test stub keys on the proxied form (65b69f8).
  • launch / restore — both build the script for the configured mode and entry port, and restore recognizes a PAC-launched app (65b69f8).
  • Second CONNECT during the dial — bytes that arrive while the upstream dial is in flight are queued, the app socket is paused, and only one 200 is ever sent; covered by a test that writes payload and a second CONNECT right behind the head (65b69f8, 0d9f05f).

Maintainer decisions

Also fixed from the CodeRabbit review: the scutil parser read Key = value while scutil --proxy prints Key : value, so the captured chain was always empty; the splice dropped bytes under backpressure (8 MiB regression test); the head deadline never fired in the current Bun; a system PAC is now embedded instead of degrading to DIRECT; and a failed start releases both listeners.

Requesting changes on exact head b6e97f35. proxy-env.ts accepts authenticated SOCKS URLs from ALL_PROXY and scheme-matched variables, but ws-upstream.ts:218-223 advertises only SOCKS5 no-auth and rejects a username/password method. With socks5://user:pass@proxy, ordinary fetch transport can authenticate while ChatGPT voice/dictation WebSocket upgrade fails with 502.

Implement RFC 1929 username/password negotiation (including decoded credential and length bounds) or fail the proxy selection before claiming support. Reuse the existing authenticated SOCKS transport contract and add exact handshake tests for success, refusal, malformed replies, and cleanup. Exact-head executable CI is currently absent.

… from the usage snapshot

The bundled app-server derives its own limit-reached state from the sibling
rate_limit_reached_type object, so flipping allowed/limit_reached alone left it
reporting rate_limit_reached. Only the plain subscription-quota type is dropped;
workspace and credit types describe a state the relay must not argue with.

Update on head bfaec8dc0 (rebased onto current dev; 1 behind at push).

Write boundary (review of 2026-09-28). validateConfigCandidate now rejects a malformed chatgptDesktop block (e.g. { unblockSend: true, port: 65536 }) with schema_invalid: chatgptDesktop.port; load still degrades to off. Regression in tests/chatgpt-unblock/unblock-config-boundary.test.ts, and the src/types/config.ts comment now covers both launch modes.

App-server transport (#6196). Additive to the existing launch modes, which are unchanged. The bundled codex app-server honours the root chatgpt_base_url, so while unblockSend is on the injector also writes a marker-owned chatgpt_base_url pointing at a new plain-HTTP loopback listener (origin port + 2) sharing the same relay and rewrites. It is journaled by value, removed by restore/stop or when the switch goes off, and a user-set chatgpt_base_url is never overwritten. The usage rewrite additionally drops a plain-quota rate_limit_reached_type, which the app-server reads next to rate_limit.

What was checked, and what was not. Against the real bundled app-server (26.924) with a throwaway CODEX_HOME: wham/usage, wham/accounts/check, wham/rate-limit-reset-credits and the plugin reads now land on the local listener. With an exhausted-account usage payload it reports rateLimitReachedType: "rate_limit_reached" directly and null through the relay; workspace_owner_usage_limit_reached is left as sent. Not done: a natural-exhaustion run on a live account showing the composer re-enabled, and the macOS stopped-proxy PAC check. Both still need exact-client UAT.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Pass the journaled ChatGPT URL to markerless cleanup.

When Codex reserializes config.toml and removes ownership comments, a previously injected chatgpt_base_url remains in the file. stripJournaledOpenaiBaseUrl supports removing that key by its recorded value, but this call passes only the OpenAI and realtime values. On the next injection, setRootChatgptBaseUrl treats the remaining key as user-owned. Switching send-unblock off then leaves the relay URL in Codex configuration, and the journal records null ownership. Pass journaledInjectedChatgptBaseUrl({ readOnly: ctx.journalReadOnly }) as the third URL argument. Add a reinjection test that removes the marker before disabling the feature.

Measured on the ChatGPT desktop app (Chromium 154): a --proxy-pac-url=file:// switch is
ignored, so the app dials every host directly, bypassing both the intercept and the user's
VPN chain. An http:// PAC would need opencodex alive to be fetched, defeating the fallback.
An inline data: PAC routes chatgpt.com through the entry listener while opencodex runs and
falls back to the system chain, with no restart, once it stops.

The watcher script rebuilds the switch from the regenerated PAC file at run time, the
"already flagged" check compares the current script, and a file:// switch from before this
change still counts as ours so restore and the watcher can correct it.

Follow-up on head 6072ce12d covering the macOS PAC check the review asked for.

Measured on the real ChatGPT app (Chromium 154) in an isolated instance (own --user-data-dir, temp CODEX_HOME), counting the app's established TCP connections by route:

PAC switch opencodex via entry via system proxy direct
file://…pac up 0 0 3
http://…pac up 2 14 0
http://…pac stopped 0 15 0
inline data: up 2 14 0
inline data: stopped 0 23 0

So the fallback itself works (with opencodex stopped every connection falls through to the system chain, no restart), but a file:// PAC is ignored by the app, which then dials directly and bypasses both the intercept and the VPN. An http:// PAC would need opencodex alive to be fetched. The switch is now passed inline as a data: URL; the watcher script rebuilds it from the regenerated PAC file, the flagged check compares the current script, and a legacy file:// switch still counts as ours so restore can correct it. Headless Chrome 154 shows the same file:// behaviour.

Still not done: a natural-exhaustion run on a live account showing the composer re-enabled, since that needs a genuinely exhausted account.

- inject chatgpt_base_url in provider-table routing mode too, not only loopback
- cap the buffered JSON rewrite at 8 MiB; larger bodies stream through unchanged
- drop the duplicate socks5-handshake mapping from the layout table
- document src/chatgpt/ in structure/ and remove its grace record

Head 0f0c49472. Two things: the quota state behind #6196, and the CodeRabbit findings on the app-server path.

Which quota state does #6196 describe? The report says "5h / weekly quota run out" and that "the account quota was actually exhausted", without saying which window. These are different states in the usage payload (primary_window is the 5-hour window, secondary_window the weekly one). I asked the reporter on #6196 to say whether it was the 5-hour window only, the weekly quota, or both.

What we cannot test. The account used for #5947 is a Pro plan, which has no 5-hour limit, so "5-hour window exhausted while weekly quota is still available" cannot be reproduced here, and a fully exhausted account cannot be produced on demand either. What is verified is limited to the real bundled app-server reading a closed-gate usage payload through the relay (allowed: false, limit_reached: true, rate_limit_reached_type: rate_limit_reached) and reporting the gate as open. The composer itself re-enabling on a genuinely exhausted account, and the 5-hour-only case, are not verified and still need exact-client UAT from someone on a plan with that limit.

Fixes for the CodeRabbit findings

  • chatgpt_base_url is now injected in provider-table routing mode as well, ahead of the first table (test added).
  • JSON bodies over 8 MiB (MAX_REWRITE_BODY_BYTES) stream through unchanged instead of being buffered and copied, whether or not content-length is declared (tests added).
  • The duplicate socks5-handshake.test.ts mapping in layout.json is removed; both layout tables stay identical.
  • src/chatgpt/ is documented in structure/clients/chatgpt-desktop.md with a manifest entry, and its grace record is removed.

…e in markerless cleanup

A Codex app reserialize keeps values and drops the ownership comments. Without the journaled
URL the surviving chatgpt_base_url read as user-owned, so switching send-unblock off left it
pointing at a listener that was gone.

@Ingwannu the PR is out of draft again on head `c6618aacb` and ready for another look. Both your requests are covered, plus #6196:

  • Write boundary (review of 2026-09-28): `validateConfigCandidate` now rejects a malformed `chatgptDesktop` block (`schema_invalid: chatgptDesktop.port`), with a regression test that a rejected write leaves the config unchanged. The `src/types/config.ts` comment covers both launch modes, and the branch is rebased onto current `dev`.
  • macOS PAC fallback, measured on the real ChatGPT app: the fallback itself works, but a `file://` PAC is ignored by the app (it dials directly, bypassing the intercept and the VPN), so the PAC is now passed inline as a `data:` URL. The connection counts per route are in the earlier comment.
  • [Bug] Codex App (macOS): send button disabled at quota exhaustion - the #5947 intercept never sees the gate reads (they come from the bundled app-server) #6196, the app-server transport: additive to the existing modes. While `unblockSend` is on, a marker-owned `chatgpt_base_url` points the bundled `codex app-server` at a plain-HTTP loopback listener that shares the relay and rewrites; it is journaled by value, removed on restore/stop/switch-off, and a user-set key is never overwritten. The usage rewrite also drops a plain-quota `rate_limit_reached_type`.

Still missing, and the reason I would like your help: the composer re-enabling on a genuinely exhausted account. The test account is a Pro plan with no 5-hour window, so that case cannot be reproduced here, and #6196 does not say which window was exhausted. CodeRabbit's findings are all resolved.

…it opt-in

The bundled app-server validates chatgpt_base_url as a workspace backend during login and
refuses anything but an HTTPS origin without credentials, so the plain-HTTP URL injected by
the previous commits made sign-in fail with "workspace backend must use an HTTPS origin
without credentials".

The listener now speaks TLS on 127.0.0.1 with a loopback certificate from the shared local CA
(the same CA the send-unblock already needs trusted), and the route is off unless
chatgptDesktop.appServer is set: it has not been proven against a real sign-in, so unblockSend
alone no longer touches chatgpt_base_url.

Correction on head d9937ba1b. The app-server route I added earlier injected a plain-HTTP `chatgpt_base_url`, and on the real desktop app that made sign-in fail with `workspace backend must use an HTTPS origin without credentials`: the built-in app-server validates that URL as a workspace backend during login. I only tested the usage reads, not sign-in, before shipping it.

Fixed by serving that listener over TLS (`https://127.0.0.1:<origin+2>`, certificate from the same local CA the send-unblock already needs trusted), and by making the whole route opt-in through `chatgptDesktop.appServer`, off by default, since it still has not been proven against a real sign-in. `unblockSend` alone no longer touches `chatgpt_base_url`. The PAC and resolver modes are unchanged.

…r stdio

On some builds the composer's send gate follows what the bundled codex app-server reports
over JSON-RPC (account/rateLimits/read and account/rateLimits/updated), and the app-server
fetches it with its own HTTP client, which no Chromium switch reaches (lidge-jun#6196).

The desktop app picks its server binary from CODEX_CLI_PATH, so with
chatgptDesktop.appServerShim the launch passes open --env CODEX_CLI_PATH=<launcher>. The
launcher runs a stdio shim that starts the real binary with inherited stdin/stderr and
filters only stdout: lines that mention no rate-limit field are written back byte for byte,
and a plain-quota rateLimitReachedType / ordinaryUsageAllowed is opened while workspace,
credit and spend-control reasons are kept. No environment variable, address or config key
changes, so the server's children and other Codex clients are unaffected, and the launcher
fails open to the real binary.

Replaces the earlier chatgpt_base_url injection, which is removed: the app-server validates
that URL during sign-in and drops the account credentials for MCP calls to a non-official
origin.

Head 70a503386: the chatgpt_base_url variant from the previous commits is removed. It cannot work for the built-in app-server, which validates that URL during sign-in and stops attaching the account credentials to its MCP calls for a non-official origin; account and connector reads broke with it.

#6196 is addressed differently now, and only for setups that need it (chatgptDesktop.appServerShim, off by default; the resolver and PAC modes are untouched). The app picks its Codex server from CODEX_CLI_PATH, so the launch points it at a stdio shim that runs the real binary and rewrites only the quota part of its account/rateLimits/* answers. Nothing else on the pipe, no environment, address or config key changes. Checked on the real binary: identical responses with and without the shim for the account and model reads, and the exhausted state opened while workspace/credit/spend reasons are kept. Still not run: a launch through the shim on a genuinely exhausted account.
