Summary

Codex Desktop can disable its local composer when the signed-in ChatGPT account is exhausted, including conversations routed to independent providers. This adds an opt-in, experimental Windows compatibility panel to manage certificate setup, observation, package-aware launch, and a bounded recovery trial while retaining native login. Actual exhausted-account composer recovery remains unverified. This PR requests security and integration review; review readiness is not a claim of verified exhausted-account recovery or approval to deploy.

The panel is under Codex Set → Desktop compatibility. It provides:

  • A 30-day, chatgpt.com-constrained authority with its private key protected by Windows CurrentUser DPAPI, fingerprint-bound trust changes, renewal, and explicit Windows trust confirmation.
  • Local dashboard-only management, explicit consent for trust and recovery actions, revision-bound settings writes, and readback after uncertain operations.
  • Native Windows package activation with a managed loopback PAC; no application-file patching, forced app shutdown, login replacement, or machine-wide proxy setting changes.
  • Stable connection addresses and optional Observe-only startup. Service restart never restores a correction trial. The UI explains that normal app launch/update may require reopening Codex through the panel.
  • A maximum three-minute trial after fresh eligible exhaustion and account identity checks. It adjusts two account-wide UI gate flags; usage values, credits, spending restrictions, and upstream enforcement are preserved. The selected model cannot be identified at this boundary, so the UI obtains account-wide consent rather than claiming per-provider isolation.
  • Assessed-build and native routing checks that disarm correction on changes; bounded HTTP/HTTPS CONNECT and SOCKS5 egress with certificate verification and no direct retry after a selected outbound proxy fails.

The packaged Windows validation also found and fixes Bun's %7EBUN virtual module URL being misclassified as a source launch, which prevented the compiled runtime from locating its GUI assets.

Related: #4878, #5694, #5797; follows the native-UI objective discussed in #5829. No issue is claimed fixed by this experimental setup work. Shared SOCKS5 framing is reused from #5947 at efdccdbfac3fe5be171ba3f717d1818d86429738; that author is credited in the transport commit. #5947 remains independent and is not superseded here.

Security and operational limits

Explicit security review is required before merge. Review the constrained authority and DPAPI lifecycle, management provenance/CSRF boundary, forwarded authentication and proxy egress, PAC fail-open behavior, and account-wide UI effect.

The current assessed app build is 26.924.2738.0; unknown builds refuse correction. The trust scope still allows this user's local relay to handle chatgpt.com TLS traffic. DPAPI does not isolate the key from another process running as the same Windows user. Ordinary app launch/update may omit the managed PAC argument. OpenCodex managed-client mode is not enabled for these controls.

No production certificate was enrolled by the packaging tests. Native exhausted-account send/Enter/attachment behavior and preservation of all app features in that exhausted state still require an end-to-end observation. A rewritten response, passing fixture, or running relay is not evidence that the app cache or composer recovered. appCacheConfirmed remains false.

Verification

Current head integrates dev at e2ae5f2dc1f1321eecbad787379fd839d231c46b.

  • node node_modules/typescript/bin/tsc --noEmit, bun scripts/structure-ssot.ts, bun scripts/privacy-scan.ts, and git diff --check: passed.
  • Focused runtime/certificate/routing/management/GUI regressions were run as their owning commits landed. Proxy egress coverage includes actual fixture HTTP and upgraded traffic over direct, HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5 transports, invalid certificates/hostnames, EOF, cancellation, size and deadline limits; 67 tests/259 assertions passed for the final transport change.
  • After the final dev integration: desktop routing, config drift healing, and scheduler regressions passed. Layout checks initially encountered a locked, empty temporary file left by the interrupted full run; the exact task-owned residue was removed, then both layout files passed (18 tests/553 assertions).
  • GUI: after the review fixes, the full suite passed 2,604 tests/22,219 assertions across 301 files. Full lint and TypeScript/Vite production build passed (398 modules); existing translated copy is retained.
  • Docs build: 537 pages and 73,556 internal links passed.
  • The compiled Windows CLI + bundled GUI was exercised in an isolated home with real account writes, OS trust enrollment, and app launch blocked. Checks cover listener ownership, authenticated GUI/assets, DPAPI certificate preparation and fingerprint reuse, persistent settings/stale revision rejection, and optional runtime presence/test guard. Build hash and exact result are retained in the local candidate receipt.
  • A separate stop probe returned 409 respawnable_service in 102 ms, preserving the installed Windows service boundary. Its test child was explicitly cleaned up; this is not a graceful production-stop claim.

CI: current head 9068502a0aa289968129c15705805f729644c05a passed run 36328645723: 18 successful jobs, including all four general test shards, Linux AppImage/deb creation and packaged-shell E2E. Seven conditional jobs were skipped (including full macOS/Windows matrices); skipped suites are not reported as tested. The earlier restart-fix head also passed its configured CI.

Request-contract review (9068502a0a): the native-identity fetch doubles now record and assert every expected usage URL, GET method, manual-redirect policy, exact bearer token and ChatGPT-Account-ID. Assertions run outside the production catch so negative tests cannot swallow an incorrect-request failure as an expected null identity. All six strengthened cases passed (70 assertions), with strict TypeScript, privacy and diff checks. This commit changes only the test file; runtime/GUI/packaging inputs remain identical to the payload-verified dc20960310 MSI, which is reused without another build.

Additional validation (dc20960310): synthetic A-to-B-to-A auth-file replacement exposed a stale identity response accepted after returning to the original account. Native reads now bind an opaque reader-local generation to a stable file-stat/content snapshot; delayed verification and correction reject replacement or rotation even when account claims return to their original values. The observation runtime must be restarted to bind the new login. Six new synthetic-file cases cover unchanged credentials, token rotation, A-to-B-to-A, malformed intermediate state, disarming/rebinding, and the async build-check race. Related runtime/connection/layout coverage passed 43 tests/714 assertions; strict TypeScript, structure, privacy and docs passed. A separate Windows custom-root-chain probe accepted chatgpt.com and its allowed subdomain and rejected unrelated/similar domains, localhost and an IP address (six cases), without OS trust enrollment; actual DPAPI reopening in a separate process also passed. The local MSI was rebuilt and 92 payload files verified. These are not native composer or Chromium trust-store end-to-end results.

Additional restart review (d6bd88d7d4): CIM output with an explicitly empty root command line now remains unknown through parsing, so the restart refuses before stopping the app instead of relaunching without a managed PAC. Whitespace-only root values are treated the same way; an unreadable helper cannot override a known root context. The actual Windows adapter and restart ladder tests verify refusal, zero stop/launch calls and lock reuse. Both focused files passed: 42 tests/132 assertions. Strict TypeScript, structure, privacy and diff checks passed. The unchanged GUI suite is not rerun for this backend-only refusal fix; broad local dependency runs remain subject to the resource exception below.

Review follow-up (b2aff9162e): all eight initial findings were checked against the implementation. Installed-build discovery is now asynchronous, bounded and coalesced; Observe/unchanged responses do not spawn a probe. Pending results cannot cross account, trial-generation or deadline changes, and shutdown awaits probe cleanup. Certificate action states, non-vacuous machine-route assertions, pre-stop relaunch-context refusal, publication/cleanup error preservation, activation-output normalization, HTTP(S) ALL_PROXY handling and the misplaced documentation paragraph were corrected. Focused runs passed (async/runtime 27 tests, follow-up generation tests 17, secondary regressions 60); common gates passed except one Windows 5-second Git fixture timeout, whose isolated 15-second-budget diagnostic passed. The actual Windows read-only probe took 653ms while 58 event-loop ticks ran; cancellation settled in 3ms. A separate real healthy-state usage read verified native identity and retained the original response (not-explicitly-exhausted, no rewrite).

Local full-suite resource exception / remaining validation: the initial default local root suite was stopped after broad Windows startup/time-limit failures. The account API file reproduced the first failure independently: a measured cold startup took about 8.3 seconds against the default 5-second test budget, followed by cleanup/owner-conflict cascades. A diagnostic bun scripts/test.ts tests/oauth/oauth-accounts-api.test.ts --timeout 15000 passed all 25 tests/220 assertions. After the review fixes, bun scripts/test.ts --changed=d30de45900731f6a325f8717ea36666950a1446f selected a broad dependency graph and reached its 900-second limit (exit 124), again showing Windows hook/ACL/temporary-file failures. It did not complete and is not reported passed. No default timeout was changed in this PR, and not every failure is attributed to the same cause. Focused local validation is used under the documented resource exception in AGENTS.md; native exhausted-account testing and independent security review remain outstanding.

Walkthrough

This pull request adds an experimental Windows Codex Desktop compatibility runtime, protected certificate and connection storage, management routes, dashboard controls, and optional startup. It also adds proxy-aware relay transport, Windows package activation, usage controls, documentation, and standalone module URL detection updates.

Changes

Windows Codex Desktop compatibility

Layer / File(s) Summary
Certificate, identity, routing, usage, and runtime
src/codex/desktop-compatibility/*, src/lib/desktop-*.ts, src/lib/socks5-*.ts
Adds protected authority and connection storage, Windows trust operations, native identity and routing checks, proxy-aware relay transport, bounded usage-response controls, and runtime lifecycle operations.
Management routes and optional startup
src/server/management/*desktop-compatibility*, src/server/index*, src/config/*
Adds confirmed certificate, runtime, and settings routes. The startup preference uses revision checks and field-scoped reconciliation. Startup is gated by platform, runtime role, sibling state, and test guards.
Codex Set dashboard and translations
gui/src/*, gui/tests/*desktop-compatibility*
Adds a machine-API Desktop compatibility tab, validated status and action clients, state-dependent controls, confirmation for sensitive actions, uncertain-write protection, startup settings, and copy in ten locales.
Windows package launch and restart
src/codex/desktop-app/*, src/codex/desktop-compatibility/windows-package-*, src/codex/desktop-compatibility/windows-activation-source.ts
Captures active PAC arguments from Windows process listings and preserves them during explicit package activation. Restart refuses to stop the app when launch context cannot be captured safely.
Documentation and validation
docs-site/*, structure/*, tests/*, scripts/test-layout/*
Documents certificate, runtime, startup, launch, transport, dashboard, and management behavior. Adds regression coverage and test-layout mappings.

Standalone module URL detection

Layer / File(s) Summary
Decoded file URL detection
src/lib/standalone.ts, tests/lib/standalone.test.ts, structure/ops/docs-and-release.md
Parses module URLs, accepts only file: URLs, and checks one decoded pathname layer for Bun virtual-root patterns.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 90685

No actionable issue was identified in this test change. This assessment does not establish that the experimental Windows feature is ready for deployment.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 90685

The feature is opt-in and includes controls for identity, consent, and expiration, but it introduces a trusted certificate and can change account-wide desktop behavior. Its intended recovery outcome remains unverified.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: Preparing and trusting the compatibility authority creates a security-sensitive state outside the trial itself. PAC and response-rewrite limits do not remove the need to manage that trusted authority until explicit trust removal or expiry.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The authority trust change and the account-wide usage gate are the material exposure boundaries. The local PAC and CONNECT restrictions narrow interception, but do not make the trusted-certificate lifecycle equivalent to a short-lived correction trial.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Starting the relay requires a trusted authority and freshly verified native identity. Before publishing a changed usage response, the controller checks the native identity again after the asynchronous context check.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — A test changes credentials from A to B and back during an asynchronous build check; the pending correction returns no rewritten output, the controller returns to observe mode, and its output count remains zero. This does not establish end-to-end desktop recovery.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Before deployment approval, validate trust removal and interrupted runtime shutdown on an installed Windows desktop build, including what remains trusted when a trial ends without an explicit certificate-removal action.

이 PR은 Windows용 Codex 데스크톱에 실험 화면을 하나 더한다. 위치는 Codex Set의 Desktop compatibility다. 사용자가 직접 켜야 하고, 지금은 초안이다. 하는 일은 이렇다. 30일짜리 인증서를 만들어 이 Windows 사용자의 루트 저장소에 넣는다. 비밀키는 그 사용자만 풀 수 있게 DPAPI로 감싼다. 패널에서 Codex를 다시 열면 chatgpt.com 접속만 이 컴퓨터의 중계를 지난다. 계정이 방금 바닥난 것이 확인되면, 최대 3분 동안 사용량 응답의 두 표시만 바꾼다. 화면은 아직 쓸 수 있는 것처럼 보이고, 실제 잔량과 크레딧과 서버의 거절은 그대로다. 바닥난 계정에서 입력이 다시 되는지는 이 PR도 아직 확인하지 못했다고 적혀 있다. 베이스는 dev다. 같은 화면을 올리는 열린 중복 PR은 없다.

src/codex/desktop-compatibility/windows-certificate-trust.ts:19 - 인증서가 Codex 프로그램 안에만 있지 않다. CurrentUser의 Root 저장소에 들어간다. 이 Windows 계정이 믿는 다른 프로그램도, 이 인증서로 서명된 chatgpt.com을 진짜로 받아들인다.
src/codex/desktop-compatibility/windows-key-protection.ts:14 - 키를 푸는 범위가 CurrentUser다. 51행 주석대로, 같은 사용자로 켜진 다른 프로그램도 이 키를 풀 수 있다. 그 프로그램은 인증서가 살아있는 동안 chatgpt.com으로 위장할 수 있다.
src/codex/desktop-compatibility/runtime.ts:109 - chatgpt.com용 CONNECT 프록시에 비밀번호가 없다. 같은 파일의 기존 프록시는, 손님이 비밀번호를 못 보내는 경우가 아니면 비밀번호를 달라고 적혀 있다. 이 포트는 127.0.0.1이라 이 컴퓨터의 다른 로컬 프로그램도 chatgpt.com 접속을 여기로 넣을 수 있고, 그 내용은 이 중계 안에서 평문으로 풀린다.
src/server/index/desktop-compatibility-startup.ts:26 - startOnProxyStart가 켜져 있으면 프록시가 켜질 때 이 중계가 다시 start() 된다. 사용량을 고치는 Apply는 여기서 호출되지 않는다. 비밀번호 없는 중계는 그때 사용자 확인 없이 다시 열린다.
src/codex/desktop-compatibility/runtime.ts:115 - PAC 결과가 PROXY 127.0.0.1:포트; DIRECT다. 로컬 프록시가 죽으면 앱은 조용히 진짜 chatgpt.com으로 간다. 관찰이 끊겨도 이 한 줄은 앱을 멈추지 않는다.
src/codex/desktop-compatibility/usage-policy.ts:46 - 고치는 값은 rate_limit.allowed와 limit_reached뿐이다. 39행의 rate_limit_reached_type은 그대로다. 한 응답이 "쓸 수 있다"와 "한도에 걸렸다"를 같이 말한다. 입력창이 열리는지, 열린 뒤 전송이 서버에서 막히는지는 아직 확인되지 않았다.
tests/ci-workflows/file-size-ratchet.test.ts:212 - CI의 test 2/4가 여기서 실패했다. scripts/test-layout/layout.json이 2000줄이라 NEW_OVERSIZED다. test 1/4, 3/4, 4/4와 desktop shell은 취소됐고, ci 잡도 실패다.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

사용자 루트에 인증서를 넣는 것이 이 실험의 대가다. 인증서 안의 이름 제한은 chatgpt.com이다. 그 인증서를 믿는 저장소는 Codex가 아니라 이 Windows 사용자다. 같은 사용자 프로그램이 키를 풀 수 있다는 점도 코드가 적고 있다. 이 조합을 실험으로 남길지, Codex 프로세스만 믿게 바꿀지 정해야 한다.

사용량 두 칸을 바꾸는 일은 서버 한도를 풀지 않는다. 화면만 달라질 수 있다. 그 화면이 요청을 보내면 그 요청은 사용자의 ChatGPT 세션으로 나간다. 보안 리뷰 체크가 비어 있는 상태에서 합칠 일은 아니다.

너의 추천

초안인 채로 둬라. 합치지 마라. layout.json을 1999줄 아래로 줄여 test 2/4를 다시 통과시켜라. 인증서를 사용자 Root에 넣기 전에는, 같은 사용자 프로그램이 키를 못 쓰게 막거나 Codex만 그 인증서를 믿게 하라. CONNECT 프록시에는 비밀번호를 달아라. 앱이 비밀번호를 못 보내면, 그 프록시를 사용자 루트 인증서와 같이 켜지 마라. PAC는 프록시가 죽으면 DIRECT로 빠지지 않게 하라. 사용량 응답을 고칠 때는 한도에 걸렸다는 표시를 응답 안에 남기지 마라. 바닥난 계정으로 실제 앱에서 전송이 막히는지 보기 전에는 Apply를 끄고 관찰만 남겨라.

Inline comments:
In @docs-site/src/content/docs/guides/codex-integration.md:
- Around line 960-965: Move the Windows full-app restart paragraph from the
reserve-mode section to the end of the Experimental Windows desktop
compatibility section, before the Routed models during Codex reserve mode
heading. Leave the paragraph’s wording unchanged.

In @gui/src/pages/codex-desktop-compatibility.tsx:
- Around line 63-66: In the certificate action builder, gate remove-trust on a
state where trust is registered, rather than adding it for every certificate
with a fingerprint; do not show it for prepared certificates. Gate renew on the
certificate states the server accepts, so unknown or otherwise unusable states
do not receive invalid mutation actions.

In @gui/tests/codex-set-shell.test.tsx:
- Line 152: Update the deep-link test assertion around `calls` to verify that
the recorded requests include the machine settings, certificate, and runtime
endpoints, so an empty request list cannot pass. Keep the existing GET-method
assertion to detect unintended writes.

In @src/codex/desktop-app/windows.ts:
- Around line 223-224: Update restartCodexDesktopApp to catch errors from
adapter.captureRelaunchContext and return a refusal using a dedicated
relaunch-context failure reason. Keep captureWindowsCompatibilityContext’s
handling of non-managed PAC values unchanged.

In @src/codex/desktop-compatibility/connection-store.ts:
- Around line 80-82: The `unlinkSync` cleanup in the `finally` block can replace
the original publication error and triggers unsafe-finally lint. Refactor the
cleanup around `created` and `temporary` so cleanup failures are recorded
without throwing from `finally`, preserving any in-flight error and surfacing
the cleanup failure only when no earlier error exists.

In @src/codex/desktop-compatibility/runtime.ts:
- Around line 46-50: Update UsageRelayController.rewriteJson’s contextValid flow
to use a cached buildSupported verdict instead of triggering desktop discovery
for each usage record. Initialize the verdict at startup and refresh it from the
lifecycle timer regardless of activation mode, keeping refreshes out of
contextValid so requests never perform the synchronous probe.

In @src/codex/desktop-compatibility/windows-package-command.ts:
- Around line 57-63: Update activateWindowsCodexCompatibility to parse the last
non-empty trimmed line of PowerShell output, and convert JSON parsing failures
to desktop_compatibility_activation_unverified so relaunch does not propagate a
raw SyntaxError.

In @src/lib/desktop-proxy-route.ts:
- Around line 13-16: Update desktopProxyFor to accept a valid HTTP
ALL_PROXY/all_proxy value as the explicit proxy for HTTPS destinations when no
protocol-specific proxy is set, instead of rejecting it as invalid. Preserve
fail-closed behavior for unsupported or malformed proxy values, and add coverage
for this case in the existing desktop-upstream test.

On Windows, an explicit OpenCodex full-app restart preserves an already active loopback
compatibility PAC argument and launches Codex through Windows package activation. It checks the
package identity and routing argument after launch; conflicting main-app routing arguments cause
a refusal before the restart. This does not enable a compatibility mode, install a certificate,
or watch and restart the app automatically. Normal launches without that routing argument keep
their existing behavior.

Move the Windows restart paragraph out of the reserve-mode section.

Lines 960-965 describe how a Windows full-app restart preserves the PAC argument. The paragraph sits directly under ## Routed models during Codex reserve mode at Line 958, which is unrelated. Readers of the reserve-mode section get a restart note. Readers of the compatibility section miss it. Move the paragraph to the end of ## Experimental Windows desktop compatibility, before Line 958.

🟡 Minor · Fail closed when the active PAC command line is unavailable. · windows.ts:155-156

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Fail closed when the active PAC command line is unavailable.

If a later CIM listing returns an empty CommandLine for a root launched with the managed PAC, the parser drops that field and captureWindowsCompatibilityContext returns {}. The restart can then stop the root and relaunch through shell:AppsFolder without the PAC. The Windows integration guide promises to preserve an active PAC during an explicit full-app restart. Preserve an explicit empty field as unknown and refuse before signaling.

Suggested fix
 return { pid, parentPid, createdAt, executable,
-  ...(encoded ? { commandLine: Buffer.from(encoded, "base64").toString("utf8") } : {}) };
+  ...(encoded !== undefined ? { commandLine: Buffer.from(encoded, "base64").toString("utf8") } : {}) };
   for (const entry of processes.filter(value => !members.has(value.parentPid))) {
+    if (entry.commandLine === "") throw new Error("desktop_compatibility_launch_context_unavailable");
     for (const match of (entry.commandLine ?? "").matchAll(/(?:^|\s)"?--proxy-pac-url=([^"\s]+)"?/g)) {

Release train 4 triage (reviewed against dev 24b2f39 at head dc20960; T4-P-6079): Reimplement narrow helper; hold feature. The new head adds native-credential-generation fencing for trials, but Windows Desktop control still has an unverified exhausted-account composer recovery premise. Windows trust code and PAC routing need explicit security review and real installed-client proof. Its independent standalone URL fix can be reimplemented with attribution, focused test and CI. Keep original PR for remaining feature. The feature PR stays open for that work.

Update (2026-09-28): the standalone URL fix from this PR landed on dev as #6098 (ef4e9940), reimplemented narrowly with Co-authored-by: luvs01, plus network-host and nested-path negatives and a compiled macOS probe. Thank you, @luvs01. The Windows Desktop compatibility feature here (checked again at head 9068502a) still needs the exhausted-account recovery proof and the trust/PAC security review, so this PR stays open for that work. When you rebase, you can drop the src/lib/standalone.ts hunk.

Hostless file: module URLs are decoded once, so a compiled Windows binary that reports an encoded ~BUN root is recognized as standalone. Network-host, non-file, double-encoded and nested source paths stay on the source path. Narrow reimplementation of the standalone URL fix from #6079.
