Summary

Reimplements the #2999 lock-scope half of #3000 (author @MarcTCruz). Closes #2999.

The refresh lock is keyed on the grant fingerprint and lives under OPENCODEX_HOME (src/codex/account-store.ts:420-422, via getConfigDir). The file it protects is auth.json under CODEX_HOME, which every OpenCodex install on the machine shares regardless of its own home. Two proxies with distinct OPENCODEX_HOMEs therefore took two unrelated locks and refreshed the one credential concurrently — the loser published its rotated grant over the winner's, and the provider then rejected it.

The refresh now runs inside withNativeMainExclusiveClaim(resolveNativeProfileContext(), ...), which is the CODEX_HOME coordination the other native-main paths already use (.opencodex-native-main.claim.sqlite). No new primitive, no FFI.

Lock order is claim (machine-wide) then fingerprint lock (per-grant), never the reverse — two processes holding different fingerprint locks and then reaching for the same claim would deadlock.

Why not #3000's publication rewrite

#3000 adds src/lib/atomic-file-preserving-replace.ts, which dlopens libc.so.6 / libSystem.B.dylib / kernel32.dll for renameat2 / renamex_np / ReplaceFileW and throws "No rename fallback is safe" on anything else. musl names its libc libc.so, not libc.so.6, so credential publication would throw on Alpine — a worse failure than the race it fixes.

It also throws MainAccountTokenRefreshError("transient") on an aborted signal before persistRefreshedMainAuthJson, so a late cancel discards a grant the provider has already rotated. That is the only live refresh token, dropped.

The existing check-then-rename guard is left alone: atomicWriteFile with assertMainAuthJsonSnapshotUnchanged in both beforeRename and validateBeforeRename refuses rather than overwrites, and its covering test (refuses to overwrite an external auth writer after refresh) already passes. Replacing a refusing writer with an FFI-backed preserving replace buys nothing here.

Verification

bun test tests/codex-main-account-refresh.test.ts tests/core-lab-boundary.test.ts
  -> 21 pass / 0 fail / 63 expect()
bun x tsc --noEmit -> exit 0

The new test drives the real getValidMainAccountToken twice with OPENCODEX_HOME actually swapped between the calls, and observes overlap rather than assuming it: each refresh records enter/leave, so a serialized pair reads enter:a, leave:a, enter:b and a concurrent one reads enter:a, enter:b. Asserting on the claim primitive directly would pass even if main-account.ts never took it.

Mutation: dropping the claim wrapper gives 3 pass / 1 fail, exactly two OPENCODEX_HOMEs serialize on the one CODEX_HOME credential. Restored to 4/0.

tests/core-lab-boundary.test.ts is included because this adds two imports to a file on the credential path; the Lab-isolation invariant holds.

Security note

Credential-path change, so it needs the security review MAINTAINERS.md requires. Nothing is logged or serialized; the claim is a lock file, and no token crosses a new boundary.

Checklist

  • Focused tests for the changed subsystem pass
  • Architecture invariant test included and green
  • bun x tsc --noEmit clean
  • Regression test present and mutation-verified
  • Security-sensitive surface flagged for review

Triaged in the 2026-08-31 non-priority-70 bug round.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented simultaneous credential refreshes when multiple installations share the same authentication file.
    • Improved cancellation while waiting for credential refreshes, allowing interrupted operations to stop promptly.
    • Prevented cancelled or retryable requests from incorrectly requiring reauthentication.
    • Added clearer temporary “server busy” responses for refresh contention and timeouts.
    • Client-cancelled requests now return the appropriate cancellation response instead of other errors.
  • Tests

    • Expanded coverage for refresh locking, cancellation, timeouts, and response handling.

Native main refresh coordination

Layer / File(s) Summary
Abort-aware native claim retries
src/codex/native-main-claim.ts, tests/native-main-claim.test.ts
NativeMainClaimOptions accepts an AbortSignal. Claim setup, retry waits, and operation startup stop with the signal reason. Tests verify listener cleanup and holder preservation.
CODEX_HOME-wide refresh claim
src/codex/main-account.ts, tests/codex-main-account-refresh.test.ts, tests/responses-native-main-refresh.test.ts
Native main-account refresh acquires a machine-wide claim before the existing per-grant lock. Timeout and cross-install serialization tests cover the updated refresh flow.
Cancellation and authentication response mapping
src/codex/auth-context.ts, src/server/responses/*.ts, tests/responses-compaction-routing.test.ts, tests/responses-native-main-refresh.test.ts
Aborted requests return HTTP 499 responses without reauthentication marking. Retryable NativeProfileError values return HTTP 503 with Retry-After: 1.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~30 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 1ade8

This change serializes shared credential refreshes across installations, but cancellation can still suppress a required reauthentication transition, and claim contention can consume the refresh timeout before refreshed credentials are reread. These cases may leave accounts retrying unusable credentials or cause avoidable refresh failures, so the risks should be resolved or explicitly accepted before merging.

Explanation

The PR satisfies the coordination requirement from issue #2999 by adding the machine-wide CODEX_HOME claim before the per-grant lock in src/codex/main-account.ts and adding regression coverage. However, issue #2999 also requires atomic protection against external Codex writers, deterministic process-death recovery, and stable canonical auth.json presence. The supplied changes do not modify the publication protocol or provide evidence for those requirements.

Resolution

Implement and test the remaining publication requirements from #2999, including external-writer preservation, process-death recovery, and canonical auth.json target preservation. Alternatively, explicitly split those requirements into a separate linked issue and document why this PR only closes the coordination portion.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes in src/codex/native-main-claim.ts, src/codex/auth-context.ts, server response handlers, and the related tests support native-main refresh serialization, cancellation, timeout handling, and error classification. No unrelated production behavior is evident from the supplied summary.

P2 Badge Make claim waiting honor the refresh abort signal

When another process holds the CODEX_HOME claim, the request signals passed by the inspected responses/core.ts and responses/compact.ts paths can abort, but this outer wait continues polling SQLite for up to 30 seconds because only the inner fingerprint lock receives signal. That regresses the previously abortable refresh path and can retain many disconnected requests doing lock I/O; pass the combined signal into the claim wait and check it before each retry.

설명

이 PR은 #2999의 락 범위만 지금 dev HEAD 6123be31f 에서 다시 구현합니다. #3000(기여자 @MarcTCruz) 전체를 가져오지 않습니다. 새로고침 락은 grant fingerprint로 키가 잡히고 OPENCODEX_HOME 아래 src/codex/account-store.ts 쪽에 있습니다. 그런데 지키는 파일은 CODEX_HOME/auth.json 이고, 한 기계의 OpenCodex 설치가 제각기 홈을 써도 이 파일은 하나뿐입니다. 홈이 다른 프록시 두 개가 서로 무관한 락을 잡고 같은 자격 증명을 동시에 새로고침하면, 진 쪽이 이긴 쪽의 회전된 grant 위에 자기 것을 써서 공급자가 거절합니다.

지금 체크아웃의 src/codex/main-account.ts 193–224행은 withCodexRefreshFileLock(lockKey, ...) 만 씁니다. 다른 native-main 경로는 이미 withNativeMainExclusiveClaim 으로 CODEX_HOME.opencodex-native-main.claim.sqlite 를 씁니다. 이 PR은 새로고침을 그 클레임 안에서 돌립니다. 새 원시 타입도, FFI도 없습니다. 순서는 기계 전체 클레임 다음에 fingerprint 락입니다. 반대로 하면 fingerprint 락을 서로 다른 채로 같은 클레임을 기다려 데드락이 납니다.

#3000은 src/lib/atomic-file-preserving-replace.ts 를 추가하고 libc/libSystem/kernel32를 dlopen 합니다. 이 PR은 그 출판 재작성을 안 가져옵니다. 락 범위만으로 #2999를 닫는 선택이 본문의 핵심입니다. 테스트 tests/codex-main-account-refresh.test.ts 는 진짜 getValidMainAccountToken 을 두 OPENCODEX_HOME 에서 동시에 부릅니다. 클레임 헬퍼만 단언하면 main-account.ts 가 안 잡아도 통과합니다. 겹침은 enter/leave 순서로 관측합니다. types.ts/config.ts 분할과는 무관합니다.

이건 자격 증명이 서로 덮어쓰이는 운영 버그라 round-2 열차(#3029/#3008/#3019)보다 체감이 다를 수 있습니다. 파일도 라우팅과 거의 안 겹칩니다.

라인 src/codex/main-account.ts waitMs 30000 - 바깥 클레임 대기와 안쪽 AbortSignal.timeout(30_000) 이 겹칩니다. 클레임을 29초 기다린 뒤 안쪽 시그널이 이미 만료에 가깝면, 락을 얻고도 바로 취소될 수 있습니다. 두 예산을 하나의 기한으로 묶을지는 판단입니다.
라인 tests/codex-main-account-refresh.test.ts 두 번째 await - second.catch(() => null) 이 실패를 삼킵니다. 직렬화 순서만 보고 두 번째 새로고침이 실제로 성공했는지는 안 봅니다. 덮어쓰기 회귀를 막으려면 두 번째 결과/파일을 더 보는 편이 셉니다.
경로 테스트 OPENCODEX_HOME 스왑 - 한 프로세스에서 env를 바꿔 가며 두 호출을 겹칩니다. 프로덕션은 프로세스 두 개입니다. 클레임 파일이 CODEX_HOME 에만 있으면 이 픽스처로도 범위는 증명됩니다. 다만 env 스왑이 다른 병렬 테스트와 간섭하지 않는지 스위트에서만 보면 됩니다.
경로 #3000 - FFI 출판 재작성은 이번 범위 밖으로 둔 판단이 맞습니다. leftover로 #3000을 닫을지는 머지 후 별도입니다. 이 PR은 #2999를 닫습니다.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

  • 클레임 대기 30초와 안쪽 refresh timeout 30초를 하나의 기한으로 줄일지
  • #3000의 atomic replace를 후속으로 남길지, 이 락만으로 #2999를 끝낼지
  • 테스트가 두 번째 새로고침 성공까지 단언해야 하는지

너의 추천
머지 쪽으로 진행하는 것을 추천합니다. 지금 HEAD는 홈이 다른 프록시가 같은 auth.json 을 동시에 돌릴 수 있고, 이 PR은 이미 있는 CODEX_HOME 클레임을 새로고침에도 씁니다. FFI를 안 가져온 선택은 맞습니다. 테스트가 순서를 관측하니 핵심 회귀는 잡힙니다. Protect dev 리뷰 후 랜딩하면 됩니다.

Give claim acquisition and refresh separate timeout budgets.

src/codex/main-account.ts:192-242 uses one 30-second signal for withNativeMainExclusiveClaim and the nested refresh operation. After claim acquisition, withNativeMainExclusiveClaim checks that signal before invoking the callback. Under contention, the signal can expire before the callback rereads auth.json, causing an avoidable refresh failure.

Use a separate claim deadline and create the 30-second refresh signal after claim acquisition. Preserve caller cancellation on both layers.

Requesting changes on exact head 1ade87086e52c60225a02ac521f5f978b9de34e3.

The central fix is correct: a refresh that publishes shared CODEX_HOME/auth.json must hold the existing CODEX_HOME native-main exclusive claim before the per-grant OPENCODEX_HOME lock. The current follow-up error/cancellation contract still has three blockers on this credential path.

  1. resolveMainAccountToken() starts one 30-second signal before claim acquisition and reuses it inside withCodexRefreshFileLock and the token request. A contender that waits most of the claim budget can acquire the claim legitimately and then have the callback rejected immediately by the already-expired signal. Give claim acquisition and the actual refresh separate bounded timeout budgets, while composing the caller's cancellation signal into both.

  2. resolveCodexAuthContext() now gates markAccountNeedsReauth() with !options.signal?.aborted at both catch sites. That ambient flag is too broad: a definitive revoked/expired credential error can win the race, then the request signal aborts before the catch runs, and the dead credential remains eligible for repeated failures. Skip quarantine only when the cause is abort-shaped or explicitly transient (including a cause equal to the signal's abort reason); definitive credential failures must still mark reauth even if the request is also aborted. Add the negative race regression requested by the current inline review.

  3. Transient native-main claim contention/timeouts map to 503, but resolveResponsesCodexAuth still logs every CodexAuthContextError as “reauthentication required,” and the new parity test explicitly locks in that false message. Do not tell operators to reauthenticate a healthy credential because a lock was busy. Classify the cause before logging: transient/claim/cancel failures need a temporary-retry diagnostic (or no reauth log), while terminal auth failures keep the reauth wording.

The branch is 21 commits behind dev, and its macOS matrix is red on the unrelated WebSocket refresh fixture at tests/server-auth.test.ts:2288. After these credential-contract fixes and the 2.40.0 version bump, rebase and require a completely green exact-head matrix plus a fresh security review.

Reimplements #3000 (author @MarcTCruz) for the #2999 lock-scope half.

The refresh lock is keyed on the grant fingerprint and lives under
OPENCODEX_HOME (src/codex/account-store.ts:420-422, via getConfigDir).
The file it protects is auth.json under CODEX_HOME, which every OpenCodex
install on the machine shares regardless of its own home. Two proxies with
distinct OPENCODEX_HOMEs therefore took two unrelated locks and refreshed the
one credential concurrently; the loser published its rotated grant over the
winner's and the provider then rejected it.

The outer lock is now withNativeMainExclusiveClaim on
resolveNativeProfileContext(), which is the CODEX_HOME coordination the other
native-main paths already use (.opencodex-native-main.claim.sqlite). No new
primitive, no FFI.

Why not #3000's approach: it introduces
src/lib/atomic-file-preserving-replace.ts, which dlopens libc.so.6 /
libSystem.B.dylib / kernel32.dll for renameat2 / renamex_np / ReplaceFileW and
throws "No rename fallback is safe" on anything else. musl names its libc
libc.so, not libc.so.6, so publication would crash on Alpine. It also throws
MainAccountTokenRefreshError("transient") on an aborted signal BEFORE
persistRefreshedMainAuthJson, so a late cancel discards a grant the provider
has already rotated -- the only live refresh token, dropped.

The existing check-then-rename guard is left as it is: atomicWriteFile with
assertMainAuthJsonSnapshotUnchanged in both beforeRename and
validateBeforeRename refuses rather than overwrites, and the covering test
(refuses to overwrite an external auth writer after refresh) already passes.

Lock order is claim (machine-wide) then fingerprint lock (per-grant), never the
reverse: two processes holding different fingerprint locks and then reaching
for the same claim would deadlock.

Mutation-checked: dropping the claim wrapper fails exactly the new test
(3 pass / 1 fail), restored to 4/0.

Closes #2999.

Rebased onto current dev (b14b741dc). Head is now f3c4e9f75; all four commits preserved, content-identical:

1: a6014b968 = 1: 91e6202b2 fix(codex): serialize native-main refresh on the CODEX_HOME claim
2: 01b4ea3cd = 2: 85cccdfc7 fix(codex): abort contended native-main refresh claims
3: 0c70407e2 = 3: 118f9a857 fix(codex): preserve native-main claim transient contracts
4: 1ade87086 = 4: f3c4e9f75 fix(codex): honor websocket abort state for reauth

This is maintenance only. The three blockers on the credential path are untouched and still stand:

  1. resolveMainAccountToken() starting one 30s signal before claim acquisition and reusing it inside withCodexRefreshFileLock and the token request, so a contender that legitimately wins the claim can be rejected by an already-expired signal.
  2. resolveCodexAuthContext() gating markAccountNeedsReauth() on the ambient !options.signal?.aborted, which lets a definitive revoked-credential error lose the race and leave a dead credential eligible.
  3. Transient claim contention mapping to 503 while still logging "reauthentication required".

Those need the cause-classification work, not a rebase, and this being a credential path it also needs a fresh security review before landing.

The rebase was still worth doing because the review required "a completely green exact-head matrix", and the previous red was an unrelated flake. Which brings a correction: that flake is not fixed. #3128 is an ancestor of the current dev and the same assertion still fired on #3133's first run, passing on a rerun of the identical head. #3128 pinned the account namespace; the real race is that startServer(0) runs before Date.now is pinned while the credential has only 60s of margin over REFRESH_SKEW_MS (src/codex/account-store.ts:22,717). So a single red on websocket passthrough refreshes pool auth here is still noise — rerun rather than treating it as this PR's.

…l mid-fixture (#3139)

* docs(devlog): plan merge train round 3

Roadmap for landing the green PRs, retiring the superseded ones, and rebasing the rest, frozen at dev=132b557ad.

Includes the round-1 audit synthesis: three blockers folded (fork PRs are carried by cherry-pick rather than force-pushed, because enforce-pr-target.yml applies the readiness checklist to authors without push permission; #3039's closure withdrawn because #3104 prints the configured budget where #3039 printed the elapsed wait; the src/service.ts overlap is 330470e, not 0ef04e6) and two rebutted with evidence.

* docs(devlog): record wp1 — #3114 landed as abcda8e

* docs(devlog): record the wp2 security review for #3122

* docs(devlog): record wp3 — #3134 landed, #3128 flake premise corrected

* docs(devlog): record wp5 — #3077 closed, #3109/#3112 rebased

* docs(devlog): locate the websocket refresh flake, and correct the #3128 premise

* docs(devlog): prove the flake mechanism and correct its direction

* docs(devlog): mark the superseded flake explanation in the wp5 record

* test(auth): install the fake clock and fetch stub before startServer

startServer returns synchronously but arms an async pool-quota prime that outlives its return (src/server/index.ts:2054-2064). That prime calls getValidCodexToken, which can rotate the very credential these assertions read, and fetches a real host unless the stub is up.

Both fixtures installed Date.now and globalThis.fetch AFTER startServer, leaving a window two dynamic import() resolutions wide where the prime ran against the real clock and real fetch. On a warm local module cache it resolved before the fixture finished; on a loaded CI runner it did not, and seenAuth[0] was already the rotated token.

Measured rather than assumed: OPENCODEX_DEBUG_QUOTA=1 prints refreshed=1 on every run of both the fixed and unfixed trees, so the prime always fires. The fix does not suppress it -- it makes it run inside the fixture's controlled world.

The thread-affinity test at :2131 had the identical shape and is fixed too.

Landed via maintainer rebase #3183. All four commits cherry-picked onto current dev with author credit preserved, no conflicts.

The CHANGES_REQUESTED state came from bot reviews against a6014b9, four commits behind the head. The one substantive finding — the P2 asking that claim waiting honor the refresh abort signal — was already resolved on this branch by 'abort contended native-main refresh claims': main-account.ts passes { waitMs: 30_000, signal } into the claim wait, with signal being AbortSignal.any of the caller's abort and the refresh timeout.

Scope recorded on the carry: this is the lock-scope half of #2999, not the whole issue. The publication/overwrite race stays with the existing refuse-not-overwrite check, so #2999 remains open with that scope written down rather than being closed by association.
