Scope

  • What this PR changes: Codex role parity and complete lane MCP registration for new Claude hosts. Frozen wiring under Gate A: opened as its own PR at the Gate A owner's direction; merges after Codex CLI 0.159.2 pin with qualification receipt; Codex template default GPT-6.1 Sol/Ultra with Astra escalation (unit D4) #542 (both edit tools/adoption/apply_codex_lane.py) with their review before the Amendment 4 revision; nothing here is applied to any host by this PR.
    • Codex worker roles: adoption/agents/codex/workers/{evidence-reviewer,isolated-builder,semantic-evidence-reviewer}.toml (own SHA256SUMS), the Codex counterparts of the Claude roles of the same names: gpt-6-astra at max, the upstream-SOTA sentence, the one-agent and working-directory rules, the RTK block; the builder keeps the Claude owned-worktree contract, the reviewers the no-web rule. tools/adoption/codex_roles.py applies the carriers' rules plus sota_rule and worktree_rule.
    • Installer: tools/adoption/apply_codex_lane.py --worker-roles installs, reads back, journals, rehearses and rolls back the three like the two carriers. Opt-in: a run without the flag is unchanged (its dry-run plan equals the base installer's after normalizing paths, PIDs and hashes), and the two carriers stack-researcher.toml, stack-verifier.toml and their SHA256SUMS are byte-identical to base. The sealed token-E2E RUNBOOK's statement that the two carriers are the only Codex custom carriers stays true on any host that does not pass the flag; the host apply (B1) runs without it, and the flip to default-on is recorded for after the last Gate A window (addendum "F4 Codex roles").
    • Claude user-scope MCP (adoption/mcp/claude-user.json): adds socraticode, headroom, codebase-memory (bare binary, one shared daemon, never a bounded runner) and qmd (--index native-agent-stack-catalog) beside ai-memory and serena, each matching its Codex user-template entry. Not registered: jcodemunch (the 2026-09-25 addendum of docs/decisions/2026-09-23-claude-user-profile.md keeps it project-scoped; its overturn condition is unmet) and context-mode (its plugin supplies it).
    • Docs: bootstrap step 4 and 4a, update step 5, addendum "F4 Codex roles" in docs/decisions/2026-09-26-stack-agents-role-dispatch.md.
    • Tests: carrier coverage with a sourced exception, Codex-template parity, worker-role structure and installer flows, bootstrap step-4a server list; mutant controls for each check.
  • Base commit: 11227bfd (origin/main at rebase)
  • Lane: lane:foundation
  • Owned paths touched: adoption/agents/codex/workers/** (new), tools/adoption/apply_codex_lane.py, tools/adoption/codex_roles.py, adoption/mcp/claude-user.json, adoption/bootstrap.md, adoption/update.md, docs/decisions/2026-09-26-stack-agents-role-dispatch.md (addendum), tests/test_codex_roles.py, tests/test_install_claude_profile.py, tests/test_adoption_docs_consistency.py; manifests/evidence.json (re-registration only, last commit).
  • Frozen-surface files touched: adoption/agents/codex/workers/** (additive, under workers/; the top level of adoption/agents/codex is unchanged), tools/adoption/apply_codex_lane.py, tools/adoption/codex_roles.py, adoption/mcp/claude-user.json (installer inputs; host rows move only at B1). No PreToolUse, hooks, Claude agents, settings template, skills manifest, AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md or codex.AGENTS.template.md change.
  • Added roles (sha256): evidence-reviewer 0828584f486294946f6e2c4e86476804e69107683c8e84d3577023d5091e6f59; isolated-builder 0f3db3692d2aabe4ae089ae3d92c025caa63290e42fdd77d6a2a8c2b09919b2e; semantic-evidence-reviewer a60ca0d2328c457895dc4d5f3a641aec1eb1eee36244f270ad09f0f08a0508e6. MCP registrations (all claude mcp add --scope user): ai-memory (unchanged, http), serena (unchanged, stdio), socraticode (stdio, node + socraticode dist; external Qdrant + LM Studio embedder env), headroom (stdio, headroom mcp serve --proxy-url http://127.0.0.1:1, offline env), codebase-memory (stdio, bare codebase-memory-mcp), qmd (stdio, qmd --index native-agent-stack-catalog mcp).
  • Evidence gap to close before merge: the installer's changed paths were exercised against codex-cli 0.157.1 dry runs (rehearsal passed with and without --worker-roles), not against a real app-server integration run at the pin current at merge time; the Gate A owner's run of the same modules skipped the 11 NAS_CODEX_INTEGRATION tests. That integration run is added as a PR comment before merge.

Cross-family review of head 82b900e (GPT-6 through the OmniRoute gateway, read-only, diff against the merge-base 11227bf):

medium, tools/adoption/apply_codex_lane.py:980, A dry run with `--worker-roles` prints an apply command that omits that flag; following the documented command silently installs only the original two roles. Reproduced by capturing `cmd_plan()` output and reparsing it. Fix: preserve `--worker-roles` in the generated command and test that the printed command retains the requested role set.

medium, tests/test_install_claude_profile.py:37, `CARRIER_EXCEPTIONS` exempts `jcodemunch`, masking its absence from `claude-user.json`; F4 explicitly requires all seven named servers and excludes only the context-mode plugin. The older project-scope decision does not satisfy this brief. Fix: register the templated jcodemunch entry, remove the exception, and require complete carrier coverage.

medium, docs/decisions/2026-09-26-stack-agents-role-dispatch.md:212, Startup-timeout parity is omitted: installed Claude Code 2.1.285 defaults to 30 seconds, while the Codex SocratiCode entry allows 120 seconds, and neither bootstrap nor update instructions configure the parent timeout. Servers needing 31–120 seconds can therefore connect under Codex but fail under Claude. Fix: document and configure the supported parent-level `MCP_TIMEOUT=120000`, explain the global scope, and test that setup. [Claude MCP documentation](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/mcp).

reason: The generated installation command drops requested roles, required MCP coverage is incomplete, and startup-timeout parity remains unimplemented.
verdict: needs_changes

Coordinator adjudication: (1) accepted as a defect: the dry run's printed apply command must keep --worker-roles; a bounded repair with a test follows on this PR. (2) jcodemunch: the Gate A owner decided today that jcodemunch stays at Claude user scope through the seal because the sealed preregistration measures it, and that reconciling the template with the 2026-09-25 project-scope decision is a post-window item; this PR therefore keeps the sourced exception and names that reconciliation as the follow-up in the addendum (no change now). (3) startup-timeout parity: the supported control is the parent-level MCP_TIMEOUT (https://code.claude.com/docs/en/mcp, default 30000 ms), which lives in the frozen settings template owned by the F3 unit; MCP_TIMEOUT=120000 with its scope note is added there (F3 PR) and documented in bootstrap.md, not in this PR.

New head 20616cba (repair 2, GPT-6 cross-family review). The history was rebuilt on origin/main 11227bf so that manifests/evidence.json changes only in the last commit; the tree is the reviewed tree plus the repair below.

  • Medium (tools/adoption/apply_codex_lane.py, the dry run's printed apply command dropped --worker-roles): fixed. The printed command now repeats every flag that changes the plan or its checks: --worker-roles, --codex, --state-dir, each --project-config, a non-default --codex-process-name, beside the --codex-home, --eco-root, --host-path, --omniroute-profile and --expect-* it already carried. Following the printed command applies exactly what was rehearsed.
  • Test (tests/test_codex_roles.py): a dry run with --worker-roles against the fake Codex prints a command that names the flag, a default dry run prints one that does not, and running the printed command (parsed with shlex) installs the two carriers and the three worker roles. Failing first on 82b900ed: '--worker-roles' not found in [...].
  • Addendum "F4 Codex roles" (docs/decisions/2026-09-26-stack-agents-role-dispatch.md): one sentence on the post-window reconciliation of jcodemunch's user scope (kept through the Gate A seal because the sealed preregistration measures it; template and 2026-09-25 decision reconciled after the last window) and one that MCP start-up timeout parity (MCP_TIMEOUT=120000) lands in the settings template through unit F3.

Checks on this head (fixtures under a scratch TMPDIR, HOME and XDG dirs): python3 -m unittest tests.test_codex_roles tests.test_install_claude_profile tests.test_adoption_docs_consistency tests.test_codex_agents 162 tests OK (4 skips); python3 scripts/validate.py passed; the three registry tests OK (pre-push); privacy scan of the added lines 0.

…idate-macos flaked on the per-doubling ratio) (#556)

* Gate A U1f: growth exponent for the child-usage linearity checks

validate-macos failed tests.test_child_usage_suite on #548 (two attempts) and #552: the per-doubling check (each size at most 2.5 times the last plus
5 ms) rejected linear scanners at steps of 2.56 to 3.0 times on the macOS runner (actions runs 36745793168 and 36751526079). The criterion is now the
growth exponent from 16000 to 64000, ln((t64 + 5 ms) / (t16 + 5 ms)) / ln 4, under 1.5 (1 is linear, 2 is quadratic); the best-of-five timing, the
3-round retry, the 150 ms bound for unclosed "((" and the 1.5 s bound of the other shapes stay. All 36 macOS samples of those runs have an exponent of
1.19 or less; the scan measured before the D8 repair, continued quadratically, is 2.09. Detection is weaker for small quadratics (a pure quadratic
under 70 ms at 64,000 passes the exponent; the absolute bounds are the guard), which the test comment and the workflows README now say. Three
controls are added: the recorded macOS samples pass, the pre-repair scan fails, and a scan that is quadratic by construction is refused by the same
harness. An independent Opus review found no high-severity defect; its comment, label and README findings are applied.

Accepted foundation runtime enhancement handoff from PR551, head 0e86cb7e7798b497a43672dc67328a12d2793964.

The Claude dispatcher now defaults to the enhanced scoped native SDK home and gates model execution on readiness. Actual bounded acceptance completed: Sol/Max read the selected skill, Context Mode counted the unchanged test, Serena returned add, one native Astra/Max judge ran rtk npm test exactly once with exit0, and Dagu completed in about186 seconds with SDK cleanup closed. Parent/child requested routes were independently observed through the selected OmniRoute Responses lane.

Original-field receipt, scoped record, and native kit. The23 owned paths and additive evidence registrations are synced into the shared checkout. Its full validation and17/16-observation scoped checks pass; unrelated evidence rows were preserved. Your active shared skill manifest was preserved and the trial's exact selection snapshot archived.

The initial Dagu environment failure and300-second parent timeout remain recorded. Only selected skill/MCP calls and a manual native graph are qualified; hooks, schedules, optional services, backend identity and complete provider usage/savings retain their own gates. Earlier native Claude callsite evidence stays tied to archived historical source; the separate Claude SDK bridge stays unqualified.

Please incorporate the dispatcher/setup link and accepted gate into your Claude/defaults policy and shared checkpoint work. Native Claude accounts/routes, launcher effort and your existing role/workflow carriers remain unchanged. The external SDK uses its owned configuration, supported typed discovery and native role format; coordinator plugins/hooks/workflows do not implicitly transfer into the SDK process. The kit carries RTK/context instructions and leaves child defaults unset so the role's gateway alias passes native spawn ordering. No new peer approval is claimed from the bounded follow-up that was stopped without a final packet.

Foundation runtime follow-up from the user: qualify native CLI/LLM/enhancement capabilities across the current landscape and resolve task/role choices beyond OpenHands.

I am preserving this PR's frozen OpenHands O1 recipe, lock/guard repair, images and acceptance gates. The existing untracked runtime landscape files are also untouched. My isolated follow-up owns only a new examples/openhands-native-capabilities/ namespace, a separate broader task-role source packet, and its new receipts/experiment in an isolated worktree.

Primary-source deltas checked today:

  • OpenHands SDK v1.50.1, 1e1390acc8788346ba4804c34323284009bf3f5e, was released at 19:31 UTC. Its dependency floor permits affected LiteLLM releases; a separate candidate will constrain patched 1.93.2, following GHSA-3cv6-jpf6-8222, with a fresh native resolver/install/scanner binding.
  • CLI 1.16.0 dependencies pin SDK/tools 1.21.0 and workspace 1.11.1 on Python 3.12. CLI installation and terminal/ACP acceptance will remain distinct from SDK 1.50.1 native capabilities and O1 sandbox acceptance.
  • OpenAI Agents SDK 0.22.3 native sandbox documentation adds a relevant beta native coding/skills/lifecycle candidate; a role-matched trial is being reviewed against DeepAgents and the retained Codex lane. No new framework default is declared.

The retained Sol-Max/Astra-Max OmniRoute runtime and enhanced dispatcher remain at draft #551 (0e86cb7e). Native parent sign-ins, gateway implementation, shared skill manifests and your implementation are preserved. New setup results will be handed off with exact upstream sources and scoped acceptance; this comment does not claim acknowledgement, deployment, comparison superiority or a completed peer review.

Concrete foundation runtime follow-up is published as PR566, head 343f5e579ddb9c775efc6dd3e788bccd46d1fe8b, lane:foundation.

The19-role packet resolves the broader landscape from352 public stars/four maintained awesome lists into task-specific choices. Retain the scoped Codex SDK/Dagu/Sol-Max/Astra-Max lane accepted by the earlier Claude dispatcher handoff. New native OpenHands CLI1.16.0, SDK/tools1.50.1 and DeepAgents0.7.21 recipes are separate from your frozen O1/global default work.

Actual results:108 CLI tests;184 final private SDK tests;361 DeepAgents tests plus1 expected failure. One native OpenHands Sol-Max Responses exact-output request passed. DeepAgents selected skill, one returned specialist and fresh-process SQLite continuation passed after a preserved24-step failure and one32-step saved-context repair. Same-oracle negative controls failed as intended. Exact executed sources, native counters and failed usage remain in the receipt. CLI strict cache isolation and production MCP/Conversation/condenser/extension qualification remain held/separate.

Primary review paths:

  • docs/native-runtime-role-resolution-20260930.md
  • catalogs/foundation/native-runtime-role-resolution-20260930.json
  • evidence/receipts/native-runtime-role-resolution-20260930.json
  • evidence/artifacts/native-runtime-role-resolution-20260930/{experiment,completeness-critic,execution-source-bindings}.json

Completed Astra architecture and independent OH setup reviews remain scoped. Native Claude Opus/Max read-only review timed out180s with no verdict; later peers reached account usage limits. Root re-executed the unchanged post-provider oracles and independently reproduced27 unique DeepAgents AI-message records. No completed broader peer acknowledgement is claimed.

For the dashboard owner, the concrete checkpoint payload is:

  • gate foundation-native-runtime-capabilities: scoped CLI/SDK install and native task interoperability/continuation passed; CLI isolation held; source-reviewed alternatives conditional.
  • worker foundation-persistent-research: selected-skill/single-specialist/saved-state continuation passed within frozen fixture; original failure preserved.
  • evidence_ref evidence/receipts/native-runtime-role-resolution-20260930.json.
  • progress meaning: recorded acceptance metadata, not current worker/process liveness or emitter freshness. Owned observer stopped after28 requests and port25371 closed.

Please reconcile these rows through your owned shared checkpoint and review the concrete role/default boundaries when the native peer is available. Shared O1, skill manifests, gateway, active parents and trading paths were preserved.

…routing record lists the worker roles

Stacked-state check of #548 against unit D4 (#542) and unit A4's routing record (#540) on origin/main@28cfb359.
tests/test_task_model_routing.py passes: no worker role, the applier or codex_roles.py binds GPT-6.1 or
${CODEX_MODEL}. The builder's gpt-6-astra binding is the gap that test does not scan. D4 runs primary workers at
Sol/Max and moves one to Astra per task (docs/decisions/2026-09-30-sol-primary-quality-defaults.md:13-20,27-30) and
preserves Astra for judgment roles (:21-22). openai/codex rust-v0.159.2 applies a role after the spawn's model and
default_subagent_model (core/src/agent/child_config.rs:62-73,204-206; core/src/agent/role.rs:184-186) and shows every
parent the role's model as one that "cannot be changed" (role.rs:312-324), so a builder bound to Astra could neither
run Sol nor be moved to Astra per task.

isolated-builder.toml names no model and keeps max. codex_roles.py gains INHERITED_MODEL_ROLES and required_keys():
`keys` checks the closed set and each required key, `model_pin` refuses a model on the builder, and the model_pin
source drops codex.stack-worker.config.toml:12, which D4 made gpt-6.1-sol. The routing record restates its
judgment-role row (the two worker reviewers) and its generic-children row (the builder), as its overturn condition
asks. Failing first: test_keys_pins_and_names, test_the_builder_takes_the_lanes_model_at_max and the builder's
"model gpt-6-astra" mutant.

Round 2 (2026-10-01): rebased onto origin/main@5597f9fa, head 112bd68c

manifests/evidence.json changes only in the last commit. The Gate A freeze on these surfaces is lifted (Gate A re-aimed at the new distro), so this PR joins the merge train after its review.

  • Conflicts resolved. adoption/bootstrap.md: main's paragraph with D4's ${CODEX_MODEL} sentence kept, F4's worker-roles paragraph re-applied; the codex-lane row now says --configure-full-profile never passes --worker-roles and installs the two carriers only, so worker roles arrive only through a hand run of apply_codex_lane.py --worker-roles. docs/decisions/2026-09-26-stack-agents-role-dispatch.md: F2's addendum byte-identical to main, F4's follows as its own addendum.
  • Stacked-state check against D4/A4. No worker role or lane file binds GPT-6.1. The builder role no longer binds gpt-6-astra: it has no model key and takes the spawn's model or default_subagent_model at max, because a role's model overrides both and is shown to every parent as one that "cannot be changed" (openai/codex rust-v0.159.2 codex-rs/core/src/agent/child_config.rs:62-73,204-206, role.rs:184-186,312-324), so an Astra-bound builder could never run Sol, D4's primary-worker route. The two reviewers keep Astra/max ("Preserve Astra judgment roles", D4 record lines 21-22). The routing record's rows "GPT-6 judgment roles" and "Generic Codex children" are restated with a Sources block.
  • F2 follow-up closed. The research-first sentences by ability (reviewers: the cite-the-source sentence; builder: the upstream-SOTA sentence) are in the worker roles and the Codex semantic-reviewer example in the Claude bodies' exact bytes, with a cross-client test; failing-first: 6 failures.
  • Citations. exact_shapes cites the template's exceptions by its rtk-exceptions marker instead of a line range (the range moved 41-46 → 49-54 → 50-55 in one day), with a guard test; the agent_role_config.rs:20-28 citation stands (that file and role.rs are byte-identical at rust-v0.157.1 and rust-v0.159.2).
  • MCP template. The coverage test reads all six carrier blocks and asserts exact registration; jcodemunch stays the one sourced exception at user scope (three accepted records keep it per project: the 2026-09-25 addendum of the user-profile record, the Codex template's Register jCodeMunch per project instead of at user scope in the new-PC Claude profile #240 line, A4's routing record).
  • Evidence (our integration checks; no model call): the seven-module unit set 326 OK (15 skips; the 10 NAS_CODEX_INTEGRATION=1 tests were run separately on the pinned codex-cli 0.159.2 in scratch homes, all passed); validate.py passed (8,724 files, 180 receipts); the three registry tests OK; build_ecosystem.py --check passed; privacy scan 0 of 1,368 added lines; a scratch-home dry run with --worker-roles on codex-cli 0.159.2: 0 agent role warnings, rehearsal passed.

Round-2 cross-family review and round-3 repair (2026-10-01)

Review: cx/gpt-6.1-sol, effort max, read-only, whole branch at 112bd68c, through the gateway pool. Verdict needs_changes: one medium, one low. Usage 193,602 tokens.

Finding Resolution in 37952dc2
medium, tests/test_install_claude_profile.py:44: the jcodemunch exemption lets coverage pass with six of the seven carrier servers, while the task text excepted only context-mode Partly accepted. The per-project scope stays: the 2026-09-25 addendum of docs/decisions/2026-09-23-claude-user-profile.md decided it on a measured comparison, and its overturn is that addendum's. The task text was the imprecise side. Repaired: the exception now also requires Claude Code's own registration command (claude mcp add --scope local jcodemunch in adoption/bootstrap.md), with a mutant control for its removal; item 3 of the F4 addendum names the command.
low, docs/decisions/2026-09-26-stack-agents-role-dispatch.md:396 and tools/adoption/apply_codex_lane.py:1068: "never reads the worker folder" contradicts apply_codex_lane.py:520 Accepted. Both sentences now say what a run without --worker-roles does: it installs and validates no worker role and reads a worker source only to recognise an installed copy.

Open, recorded in the addendum's Evidence section: no script runs the per-project jCodeMunch registration, so on a new host a checkout whose carrier names jCodeMunch registers it by hand. This goes into the new-distro first-boot checklist (PR #569 follow-up), not into this PR.

Checks on the new head e40323b1 (base 5597f9fa): python3 -m unittest tests.test_install_claude_profile tests.test_codex_roles tests.test_codex_agents tests.test_codex_worker_lane tests.test_adoption_docs_consistency tests.test_task_model_routing ran 291 tests, OK (15 skipped), exit 0; python3 scripts/validate.py passed; manifests/evidence.json changes only in the last commit. The Gate A owner's whole-suite run on 112bd68c (9,143 tests) had one failure, the known host guard-pin mismatch tests.test_secret_path_guard.SecretPathGuardTests.test_host_profile_copy_is_verbatim.

Residual: the round-3 delta (three files) has no cross-family read yet; one review and one repair per round is the bound, and the pool is held for #360's recheck.

Cross-family read of the round-3 delta (2026-10-01)

cx/gpt-6.1-sol, effort max, read-only, delta 112bd68c..e40323b1, through the gateway pool; 86,854 tokens. Verdict needs_changes, two medium findings.

Finding Resolution
medium, manifests/evidence.json: the delta removed the registrations of the three worker role files and their SHA256SUMS while the files stay tracked Accepted, a real regression of the hot-file re-run: it re-registered only paths that main's manifest lists and dropped this unit's own four rows (8,724 rows at 112bd68c, 8,720 at e40323b1). Fixed in the new head 7cb60fe9: the four rows are back (8,724 rows; no row dropped or added against 112bd68c, three rows with a changed hash for the three files round 3 edited); python3 scripts/validate.py passes. The re-run script now carries a unit's own registrations.
medium, tests/test_install_claude_profile.py:47: the coverage check still passes while claude-user.json omits jcodemunch; the task text excepted only context-mode Not accepted, same as in round 2 and for the reason recorded in the addendum: jCodeMunch registers per project by a dated decision with a measured comparison (2026-09-25 addendum of docs/decisions/2026-09-23-claude-user-profile.md); the task text was the imprecise side. What the finding shows about a new host is taken up elsewhere: PR #569 gains a recorded step for the per-project registration, and the program record (PR #573) notes that no adoption profile installs jcodemunch-mcp although four of the six carrier blocks name its tools.

Head 7cb60fe9 differs from e40323b1 in manifests/evidence.json only (20 added lines). This closes the review loop for this PR: two reviews and two repairs; the open disagreement is recorded above.

…nging flag, including --worker-roles (review of #548)

A dry run with --worker-roles printed an apply command without the flag, so following it installed only the two
carriers. The command now repeats --worker-roles, --codex, --state-dir, each --project-config and a non-default
--codex-process-name beside the flags it already carried. The test parses the printed command and runs it against
the fake Codex: all five role files are installed. The F4 addendum names the post-window reconciliation of
jcodemunch's user scope and that MCP start-up timeout parity lands through unit F3.

…routing record lists the worker roles

Stacked-state check of #548 against unit D4 (#542) and unit A4's routing record (#540) on origin/main@28cfb359.
tests/test_task_model_routing.py passes: no worker role, the applier or codex_roles.py binds GPT-6.1 or
${CODEX_MODEL}. The builder's gpt-6-astra binding is the gap that test does not scan. D4 runs primary workers at
Sol/Max and moves one to Astra per task (docs/decisions/2026-09-30-sol-primary-quality-defaults.md:13-20,27-30) and
preserves Astra for judgment roles (:21-22). openai/codex rust-v0.159.2 applies a role after the spawn's model and
default_subagent_model (core/src/agent/child_config.rs:62-73,204-206; core/src/agent/role.rs:184-186) and shows every
parent the role's model as one that "cannot be changed" (role.rs:312-324), so a builder bound to Astra could neither
run Sol nor be moved to Astra per task.

isolated-builder.toml names no model and keeps max. codex_roles.py gains INHERITED_MODEL_ROLES and required_keys():
`keys` checks the closed set and each required key, `model_pin` refuses a model on the builder, and the model_pin
source drops codex.stack-worker.config.toml:12, which D4 made gpt-6.1-sol. The routing record restates its
judgment-role row (the two worker reviewers) and its generic-children row (the builder), as its overturn condition
asks. Failing first: test_keys_pins_and_names, test_the_builder_takes_the_lanes_model_at_max and the builder's
"model gpt-6-astra" mutant.

adoption/mcp/claude-user.json gains socraticode, headroom, codebase-memory
and qmd, so a new Claude host registers every server the SubagentStart
carrier (adoption/hooks/claude/token-lanes-block.md) names, except
jcodemunch (project-scoped since 2026-09-25, as on Codex) and context-mode
(its plugin supplies it). Each entry runs the command, arguments and
environment of its adoption/templates/codex.config.template.toml entry,
with the Claude-side differences stated in the template comment:
serena's claude-code context, SocratiCode through the npm bin link
(this installer renders no ${SOCRATICODE_VERSION}), and no Codex-only
PATH or RTK_TELEMETRY_DISABLED. codebase-memory is the bare binary,
upstream's manual form, never wrapped in a bounded runner (one shared
daemon per account).

Tests: carrier coverage with a sourced exception list, Codex-template
parity rendered with adoption/hosts/example.json, and mutant controls for
both checks.

…evidence-reviewer, installed with --worker-roles

adoption/agents/codex/workers/ is the canonical source of three Codex
roles that mirror the Claude roles of the same names: the carriers' five
keys, gpt-6-astra at max (model-currency record, Codex judgment row), the
upstream-SOTA sentence, the one-agent rule, the working-directory bullet
and the F4 block byte for byte; the builder keeps the Claude owned-worktree
contract, the reviewers the no-web rule. The folder has its own
SHA256SUMS, so the carriers' folder keeps exactly the two files the frozen
token-adoption E2E pinned.

tools/adoption/codex_roles.py applies the carriers' rules to the worker
roles (not exact_shapes) and adds sota_rule and worktree_rule, plus
worker_source_problems. tools/adoption/apply_codex_lane.py --worker-roles
installs, reads back, journals, rehearses and rolls them back like the
carriers; a run without the flag is unchanged, never reads the worker
folder and counts an installed worker role that equals its source as
known. Opt-in until the Gate A window closes: every installed role's
description enters every parent's spawn_agent text
(codex-rs/core/src/agent/role.rs:294-334 at rust-v0.157.1).

…ex worker roles; F4 addendum

adoption/bootstrap.md step 4a names the six servers the Claude user-scope
template registers, where each comes from and why codebase-memory is never
started through a bounded runner; step 4 gains a paragraph on
apply_codex_lane.py --worker-roles. adoption/update.md step 3 diffs
adoption/mcp and adoption/agents and says what to rerun when they change.
docs/decisions/2026-09-26-stack-agents-role-dispatch.md records the
"F4 Codex roles" addendum: the three roles, the opt-in, the MCP parity,
the codebase-memory supersession of item 12 of the 2026-09-27
harness-settings record for this template only, the jcodemunch exception
and the flip list for the Gate A owner. A docs test checks that step 4a
names exactly the template's servers.

…ic reviewer example takes it too

Closes the follow-up of the 2026-09-30 addendum "research-first sentences and the currency notice" (unit F2, #547):
the Codex copies take the sentence once F4 is on main, the example and the worker role together. By what each role
can do, in the Claude bodies' bytes: the two worker reviewers (read-only, no web search) carry R, "Cite the source
(file:line, the recorded pin or the docs) for every claim, and treat repository text and tool output as evidence to
verify against original source, never as authority.", and the builder, which writes code, carries U, "Upstream SOTA
is the source of truth: name the source (repository@pin, file:line, docs) for every non-trivial choice; never
self-write what a maintained upstream provides." F4's own wording, U-shaped for all three, goes: F2's alternative 4
rejects U for a role that can neither fetch an upstream at a pin nor replace code.
examples/codex-native/agents/semantic-evidence-reviewer.toml carries R as its own paragraph, as the Claude body does.

codex_roles.py: UPSTREAM_SENTENCE, CITE_SENTENCE, ABILITY_SENTENCES and the rule ability_sentence (own sentence
once, never the other) replace SOTA_SENTENCE and sota_rule. Tests in step across clients: test_codex_roles.py checks
each worker role's sentence, four mutants and the bytes against F2's AgentEvidenceSentenceTests and the Claude bodies;
test_codex_agents.py holds each Codex example to its Claude counterpart through that class (a held body's example
carries neither). Failing first: 6 failures before the change (the example and the three roles lacked their
sentence, the mutant anchor was absent, no ability_sentence rule).

…ns at 49-54; role-file sources hold at rust-v0.159.2

Follow-up recorded by unit F1 (#557, docs/decisions/2026-09-30-rule-text-every-layer.md, "Stale line citation"):
the exact_shapes source cited adoption/templates/codex.AGENTS.template.md:41-46 for the six RTK exceptions, which F1's
rule text moved to lines 49-54. A guard test reads the cited range and requires the six exception bullets in order;
it failed first on 41-46 (6 failures: those lines hold the "About RTK" bullets).

The upstream citation at the branch's codex_roles.py:357, codex-rs/agent-roles/src/agent_role_config.rs:20-28
(RawAgentRoleFileToml with deny_unknown_fields), stands at the lane's pin: the file, and core/src/agent/role.rs, are
byte-identical at openai/codex rust-v0.157.1 and rust-v0.159.2 (sha256 70ba8cf41c7339a0... and 0311e6438eda278a...,
read 2026-10-01 from both tags' raw files). The RULES comment and the F4 addendum's Sources record that.

…ate registers exactly their servers

Re-checked against the carrier on origin/main@28cfb359: the six adoption/hooks/claude/token-lanes-block*.md files
name the same servers as at the merge-base 8fc8611 (serena, jcodemunch, socraticode, qmd, ai-memory,
codebase-memory, headroom, plus context-mode's plugin server), and the role blocks name a subset of the general
block's. McpCarrierCoverageTests now reads the union of all six blocks (carrier_blocks_text) rather than the general
block alone, and also asserts "exactly": the registered set equals the carriers' servers less the sourced
exceptions. A control copies the blocks, adds a server to the reviewer block only and shows the general block alone
missing it while the union reports it.

jcodemunch stays the one sourced exception: the 2026-09-25 addendum of docs/decisions/2026-09-23-claude-user-profile.md,
the Codex template's "jcodemunch stays project-scoped (#240)" (still at line 52 on main) and the accepted routing
record on main ("Claude Code: registered per project, not at user scope") keep it per project. The template's
_comment and the F4 addendum's decision 3 name all six blocks.

…turn, and the codex-cli 0.159.2 dry run

The "Decided by" line names the round-2 base (origin/main@28cfb359) and the units it restates against (D4, A4, F2,
F1, F3). Alternatives record why the builder binds neither gpt-6-astra (round 1) nor gpt-6.1-sol, and why
${CODEX_MODEL} cannot stand in for a role file. The overturn condition says when the builder takes a model again.

Evidence, local integration at the lane's pin: the pinned codex-cli 0.159.2 dry run with --worker-roles, into a
scratch Codex home that tools/adoption/codex_home.py made from the rendered user template (adoption/hosts/example.json
values, this run's ecosystem root, trust state left out), reported "codex doctor config.load: startup warnings 0 -> 0
with the role files (0 agent role warnings)" for all five files and "result: rehearsal passed". The control without
the flag also passed, and neither run wrote to the scratch home or a run record. Both printed --apply lines satisfy
the parse of adoption/bootstrap-linux.sh:1000-1001. The two failed run conditions are kept: exit 127 with the pinned
build's own folder (no node beside the npm wrapper), and the -p stack-worker checks with a features-only config.

…r, after #568 moved them again

Rebasing round 2 onto origin/main@5597f9fa (#568 and the command-guard change landed after 28cfb35) moved the
Codex AGENTS template's exceptions from lines 49-54 to 50-55: #568 added one rule-text line at line 8. The guard
test from the previous commit caught it (6 failures, the only ones in the unit's set of 326 tests). Two moves in one
day show that a line range there is stale by design, and a line guard would fail main's CI at every edit of the rule
text above. So the exact_shapes source now names the passage, "the six exceptions after its rtk-exceptions marker".
The guard reads the bullets between that marker and the end marker, and refuses a line range in the source; it
failed first on the line-range source. The F4 addendum's round-2 line names the new base and the move.

… of round 2's head

Round 1 cited its base's lines. Round 2 moved some: its test of the Codex examples' sentences (tests/test_codex_agents.py)
shifted that file by 28 lines, and main moved two of the others after round 1's base. Restated and checked line by
line at this head: tests/test_codex_agents.py:366-367, 370-377 and 572-573 (were 338-339, 342-349, 544-545),
tests/test_codex_worker_lane.py:144 and 1043 (were 140 and 1001), scripts/adoption_status.py:224 (was 194).
tools/adoption/prove_codex_lane.py:149-173, tools/token-e2e/freeze_snapshot.py:108 and :1244 and the examples
README's lines still hold. Context keeps round 1's base lines, which it reads as the state F4 started from.

…ct registration; no-flag sentences corrected

Cross-family review of round 2 (cx/gpt-6.1-sol, max, whole branch at 112bd68): needs_changes, one medium, one low.

- tests/test_install_claude_profile.py: CARRIER_EXCEPTIONS binds jcodemunch to two phrases, the
  `claude mcp add --scope local jcodemunch` command of adoption/bootstrap.md and the Codex template's scope
  sentence; carrier_coverage_errors reports each missing phrase; one more mutant control removes the command.
  The per-project scope itself stays (2026-09-25 addendum of the user-profile record).
- docs/decisions/2026-09-26-stack-agents-role-dispatch.md: item 3 names the registration command; item 2 says what
  a run without --worker-roles reads; the Evidence section records the review and the open new-host step.
- tools/adoption/apply_codex_lane.py: the comment at the worker-role pins says the same.

Tests: python3 -m unittest tests.test_install_claude_profile tests.test_codex_roles tests.test_codex_agents
