Performance
Key patterns and highlights from this developer's activity.
Breakdown of growth, maintenance, and fixes effort over time.
Bugs introduced vs. fixed over time.
Reclassifies engineering effort based on bug attribution. Commits that introduced bugs are retrospectively counted as poor investments.
Investment Quality reclassifies engineering effort based on bug attribution data. Commits identified as buggy origins (those that introduced bugs later fixed by someone) have their grow and maintenance time moved into the Wasted Time category. Their waste (fix commits) remains counted as productive. All other commits retain their standard classification: grow is productive, maintenance is maintenance, and waste (fixes) is productive.
The standard model classifies commits as Growth, Maintenance, or Fixes. Investment Quality adds a quality lens: a commit that introduced a bug is retrospectively counted as a poor investment — the engineering time spent on it was wasted because it ultimately required additional fix work. Fix commits (Fixes in the standard model) are reframed as productive, because fixing bugs is valuable work.

| bd3ce98 | This commit **upgrades the `rmcp` dependency to version 0.15**, addressing a **critical bug** in `rmcp` 0.14 that broke **MCP OAuth functionality** for integrations like Linear. The upgrade necessitates extensive **refactoring** across the `codex-rs/core`, `exec-server`, and `mcp-server` modules to align with the updated `rmcp` model. Specifically, it modifies **elicitation request handling**, updates client capabilities, and adjusts **tool specifications** by adding an `execution` field to `Tool` structs and a `description` to `Implementation` structs. This ensures **compatibility** with the latest protocol and **restores stable MCP OAuth operations**. | Feb 12 | 13 | maint |
| 468ee8a | This commit introduces a **new feature** to the **MCP connection manager** (`mcp_connection_manager.rs`) by implementing a **tool name sanitization** process. It adds the `sanitize_responses_api_tool_name` function, which ensures that **MCP tool names** conform to the `^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$` regex required by the **Responses API** by replacing non-conforming characters with underscores. This critical update is integrated into the `qualify_tools` process, resolving compatibility issues and enabling seamless registration and usage of **MCP tools** with the **Responses API**. Additionally, a `sha1_hex` helper function is introduced for general utility. | Jan 5 | 1 | grow |
| 3741f38 | This commit introduces a **new feature** enabling users, particularly **enterprise administrators**, to disable automatic update checks and messages within the application. It adds a `check_for_update_on_startup` field to the **core configuration** (`Config` struct) in `codex-rs/core`, defaulting to `true`. The **TUI's update checking mechanism** in `codex-rs/tui/src/updates.rs` is modified to respect this setting, preventing `get_upgrade_version` and `get_upgrade_version_for_popup` from executing if disabled. This provides crucial control for centrally managed environments by allowing administrators to prevent `codex-rs` from performing self-update checks. The new configuration option is also documented in `docs/config.md`. | Nov 24 | 3 | grow |
| 424bfec | This commit **re-adds the `--log-level warn` argument to the Prettier command** within the **TypeScript generation process** for the `codex-rs/app-server-protocol` module. This is a **maintenance fix** to restore a previously intended configuration that was inadvertently removed due to a bad diamond merge. The change ensures that Prettier's output during the `generate_ts` operation is less verbose, only displaying warnings and errors, thereby improving the readability of build logs and reducing unnecessary noise. | Nov 12 | 1 | maint |
| 65d53fd | This commit **reduces the verbosity** of Prettier's output during **TypeScript protocol generation**. Specifically, it modifies the `generate_ts` function within `codex-rs/protocol-ts/src/lib.rs` to pass `--log-level warn` to the Prettier command. This **maintenance** change prevents the excessive logging of every formatted file, thereby **improving the readability** of downstream script outputs and enhancing the overall developer experience. | Nov 6 | 1 | maint |
| 1b8cc8b | This commit introduces a **new capability** by **adding comprehensive session metadata** to the `listConversations` API. The **`app-server-protocol`**'s `ConversationSummary` struct is extended with new fields, and a `ConversationGitInfo` struct is defined to encapsulate details like CWD, CLI version, source, and Git information. The **`app-server`**'s `codex_message_processor.rs` is updated to extract and populate this additional context during conversation summary generation, specifically within the `list_conversations` and `extract_conversation_summary` logic. This **enhancement** provides richer contextual data for each conversation, unlocking new product experiences for app server consumers. | Nov 6 | 2 | grow |

| 1d76ba5 | This commit introduces a **new capability** to the **App Server**, enabling the fetching and resuming of conversation summaries using only a conversation ID, thereby removing the previous requirement for a `rollout_path`. This **feature enhancement** updates the `app-server-protocol` by modifying `GetConversationSummaryParams` and `ResumeConversationParams` to support ID-based lookups, with the core logic implemented in `codex_message_processor`'s `handle_get_conversation_summary` and `handle_resume_conversation` functions. The change significantly **simplifies client-side integration** by abstracting away the need for clients to store and manage platform-specific `rollout_path` details, improving developer convenience and reducing complexity in conversation management. | Oct 29 | 4 | grow |
| b0bdc04 | This commit introduces a **critical new capability** by enabling the model to **semantically process image content returned from Multi-Content Protocol (MCP) tool calls**, effectively **fixing bug #4819**. It enhances the **chat completions** (`stream_chat_completions`) to support multimodal outputs and refactors core data structures like `FunctionCallOutputPayload` and `ToolOutput::Function` within `codex-rs/protocol/src/models.rs` to correctly propagate image data. This allows the model to accurately interpret visual information from tools, making **visual MCP servers** (e.g., Chrome, Figma) fully functional and significantly improving the system's overall intelligence and utility. | Oct 27 | 24 | grow |
| 7aab45e | This commit provides **minor documentation clarifications** within the **configuration guide** for `stdio` tokens. It specifically updates the example bearer token environment variable name from a generic placeholder to `ENV_VAR` in `docs/config.md`. This **documentation update** is a **maintenance** task that enhances user understanding, ensuring correct implementation of environment variables for token configuration. | Oct 26 | 1 | maint |
| e2e1b65 | This commit introduces a **bug fix** and **maintenance** improvement within the **`codex-rs/cli`** module, specifically affecting the `mcp add` command. It properly **gates the OAuth login process** that occurs after `mcp add` by adding a conditional check within the `run_add` function. This ensures that the login flow is only triggered when the `experimental_use_rmcp_client` feature flag is active, preventing unintended login prompts. The change aligns the behavior of `mcp add` with other parts of the system that already incorporate this conditional logic, ensuring consistent and correct execution based on experimental feature enablement. | Oct 24 | 1 | waste |
| 817d150 | This commit introduces a **security enhancement** by implementing **redaction of sensitive environment variable values and HTTP headers** across the `codex-rs` application. It modifies the **CLI commands** `mcp list` and `mcp get` to mask sensitive data in their output, and extends this redaction to the **TUI display** via `new_mcp_tools_output`. The core redaction logic is handled by updating the `format_env_display` utility to replace sensitive values with `*****`. This **prevents accidental exposure of confidential information** when inspecting system or command outputs, significantly improving data privacy for users. | Oct 24 | 5 | grow |
| ed77d2d | This commit **improves error handling** within the **MCP initialization process** to provide clearer feedback to users. It specifically **enhances startup timeout error messages** in `codex-rs/core/src/codex.rs` to help users self-serve and **clarifies GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT) requirements** when authentication fails. This **maintenance** work aims to **reduce user confusion** and **improve the developer experience** by making common startup issues easier to diagnose. Additionally, the `DEFAULT_STARTUP_TIMEOUT` constant in `codex-rs/core/src/mcp_connection_manager.rs` has been **refactored** to be public, allowing broader use. | Oct 24 | 2 | grow |
| abccd3e | [MCP] Update rmcp to 0.8.3 (#5542) | Oct 24 | 2 | – |
| 4cd6b01 | This commit **refactors** the **Message Control Protocol (MCP) client implementation** by **removing the legacy stdio client** and making the `RmcpClient` the **default and sole client** for all MCP connections. The `McpConnectionManager` in `codex-rs/core` has been updated to exclusively use `RmcpClient`, eliminating the `McpClientAdapter`. This **maintenance** task streamlines the codebase and **removes deprecated functionality** without introducing any functional changes for users. Additionally, documentation for the `RmcpClient` feature and the `experimental_use_rmcp_client` configuration flag has been updated to reflect this new default behavior and the flag's revised purpose. | Oct 22 | 11 | maint |
| 34c5a9e | This commit **introduces a new feature** that allows users to specify OAuth scopes when authenticating with the Managed Cloud Platform (MCP) via the command-line interface. The **`codex-rs/cli`**'s `mcp login` command now supports a `--scopes` argument, enabling explicit control over requested permissions. These specified scopes are then passed to the **`codex-rs/rmcp-client`**'s `perform_oauth_login` function, which integrates them into the OAuth authorization flow. This enhancement provides greater flexibility and security by allowing fine-grained permission management during **MCP authentication**. | Oct 22 | 2 | grow |
| a517f6f | This commit **fixes flaky authentication tests** within the **`codex-rs/core` module** by ensuring their serial execution. Specifically, it applies `#[serial(codex_api_key)]` attributes to relevant test functions in `codex-rs/core/src/auth.rs`. This **maintenance fix** prevents race conditions and shared state issues, significantly improving the reliability and stability of the **authentication test suite**. The change addresses intermittent failures, making the CI/CD pipeline more robust. | Oct 21 | 1 | maint |
| 42d5c35 | [MCP] Bump rmcp to 0.8.2 (#5423) | Oct 21 | 2 | – |
| ef80645 | This commit introduces a **dedicated error message** for **GitHub MCPs** when a Personal Access Token (PAT) is missing, significantly improving user guidance. A new helper function, `mcp_init_error_display`, is added to the **`codex-rs/core`** module and integrated into `Session::start_mcp_clients` to provide specific instructions during client initialization failures. This **enhancement** is supported by **refactoring** in **`codex-rs/core/src/mcp/auth.rs`** to define `McpAuthStatusEntry` and update `compute_auth_statuses`, with the `codex-rs/cli` module adapting to this new structure. This change directly addresses user confusion by providing actionable feedback for a common GitHub MCP setup issue, making the system appear less "broken" to users. | Oct 20 | 3 | grow |
