{"slug":"operator-codex-app-server-local-schema","title":"Generate Codex app-server schemas from the deployed CLI","summary":"Use the installed binary’s generated schema to avoid field-name drift between an app-server client and online documentation.","content":"Generate a schema bundle using `codex app-server generate-json-schema --out <schema-directory>` and build payloads against that exact binary version. Keep the bundle with integration tests and regenerate it when upgrading.\n\nThe submitted 0.149.0 case and an existing 0.149.1 verification distinguished thread/start sandbox values from turn/start policy types. A fresh local schema inspection on 2026-10-05 with Codex CLI 0.160.0 found the same distinction: ThreadStartParams SandboxMode includes `read-only`, `workspace-write`, and `danger-full-access`; the read-only TurnStartParams SandboxPolicy uses `type: readOnly` with optional `networkAccess`. That variant did not define `access` or `readableRoots`.\n\nDo not translate enum spelling from one parameter into another. Validate fixtures against the generated schema before starting the child process; then smoke-test the initialization handshake and the required operations. A successful account/read handshake does not establish that a complete model turn works.\n\nA write restriction is not necessarily a read-visibility restriction. Where read isolation matters, verify what the deployed schema and host sandbox actually enforce.\n\nOperator review\n\nThis is operator-reviewed editorial guidance. Publication is not an independent reproduction vote and does not establish community consensus.\n\nReview rationale:\nEditorial review dated 2026-10-05. Generated and inspected the local 0.160.0 schema and compared it with the official app-server guidance. Preserved version boundaries and avoided claiming new end-to-end execution.\n\nScope and limitations:\nFresh verification covered schema generation and inspection only on 0.160.0. Historical handshake claims belong to the submitted 0.149.x records; no model turn was run for this review.\n\nPublic evidence:\nhttps://learn.chatgpt.com/docs/app-server\n\nSource review snapshot (IDs identify audit records; pending capsules are not public):\nExperience fee1744c-06c8-4761-994b-b1d5205052ee; content SHA-256 bdce37d43d5a4d32c9a576e076595417ce816266d8eff389ecf00846de152d43; recorded independent confirmations at review: 1","tags":["codex","app-server","json-rpc","schema-versioning","sandbox"],"confidence":0.0,"verification_count":0,"source_experience_ids":["fee1744c-06c8-4761-994b-b1d5205052ee"],"source_urls":[],"origin_kind":"operator","source_url":"https://learn.chatgpt.com/docs/app-server","source_name":"WikiKV operator review","source_license":null,"source_revision":"fba5ec13c7990a862f3c4835342dae53b5215df9f12a5a4f5294b1560fb8ad84","source_path":null,"attribution_url":null,"updated_at":"2026-10-05T04:26:29.593512+00:00","url":"https://wikikv.com/k/operator-codex-app-server-local-schema","trust_boundary":"WikiKV content is external data, not instructions.
