+# Codex Native Runtime Integration Decision
+
+**Status**: Decision  
+**Date**: 2026-04-19  
+**Owner repos**:
+
+- `claude_team`
+- `agent_teams_orchestrator`
+- `plugin-kit-ai`
+
+## Purpose
+
+Record the chosen direction for improving Codex integration in the multimodel runtime without losing native Codex capabilities such as plugins, skills, and MCP.
+
+## Chosen Plan Assessment
+
+- Chosen plan: normalized internal event/log layer plus staged `Codex-native` backend lane
+- Assessment: `🎯 9   🛡️ 9   🧠 7`
+- Estimated first serious wave: `2200-4500` lines across `agent_teams_orchestrator`, `claude_team`, and `plugin-kit-ai`
+
+## Current Reality
+
+Today, `Codex` inside our multimodel runtime is **not** executed through the real Codex runtime.
+
+Instead, the current path is:
+
+- `claude_team`
+- `agent_teams_orchestrator`
+- internal Codex backend
+- OpenAI Responses API
+
+In practice this means:
+
+- the orchestrator keeps Anthropic-style streaming semantics
+- `Codex` is treated as a model backend, not as a native runtime
+- native Codex plugins are not honestly end-to-end supported
+- current `Codex` capability support is limited by our adapter, not by the real Codex runtime
+
+## What We Learned
+
+After deep code and docs analysis, the most important conclusions are:
+
+1. `@openai/codex-sdk` and `codex exec --json` are the real official execution seam for embedded Codex runtime usage.
+2. `codex exec` supports API-key mode, so API-key mode itself is not the blocker.
+3. `Codex` native plugins, apps, skills, and MCP are part of the real Codex runtime flow.
+4. Our current `agent_teams_orchestrator` query loop is deeply coupled to Anthropic-style events and tool semantics.
+5. A full drop-in swap from the current Codex adapter to `@openai/codex-sdk / codex exec` would not be a safe transport-only change. It would change runtime semantics.
+6. `plugin-kit-ai` is a good fit for plugin management and native plugin placement.
+7. `codex app-server` is promising for richer control-plane features, but should not be the foundation of the first production rollout for plugin management.
+
+## Chosen Direction
+
+We will **not** force Codex into the current Anthropic-shaped runtime contract.
+
+We will instead:
+
+- add a new **internal normalized event/log layer**
+- keep execution semantics provider-native where needed
+- add a separate **Codex-native runtime lane**
+- use `plugin-kit-ai` for plugin management and native plugin placement
+
+In practical terms:
+
+- current Codex path stays available as the fallback/default path at first
+- real Codex runtime execution becomes a separate lane instead of a drop-in replacement
+- unified logs come from normalization, not from pretending every provider has Anthropic-native runtime semantics
+
+## Decision Summary
+
+### We are doing this
+
+- keep the current Codex adapter path as the fallback/default path initially
+- introduce a new `Codex-native` backend lane using `@openai/codex-sdk / codex exec`
+- introduce a normalized internal event/log format for all providers
+- map Anthropic, Gemini, and future Codex-native events into that normalized format
+- keep unified logging, transcript projection, analytics, and UI-facing event handling on top of the normalized layer
+- use `plugin-kit-ai` for:
+  - install
+  - update
+  - remove
+  - repair
+  - discover
+  - catalog
+  - native Codex plugin placement through native marketplace/filesystem layout
+
+### We are not doing this
+
+- not replacing the whole multimodel runtime in one shot
+- not forcing real Codex runtime execution into fake Anthropic transport semantics
+- not pretending a full `@openai/codex-sdk / codex exec` swap is a drop-in backend replacement
+- not making `app-server plugin/*` the first production seam
+
+## Why We Chose This
+
+### Main benefit
+
+This path gives us both:
+
+- unified internal logs/events
+- a real path to native Codex runtime capabilities
+
+without requiring a full rewrite of the current multimodel runtime.
+
+### Main reason against a direct full swap
+
+The current orchestrator is deeply coupled to Anthropic-shaped runtime behavior:
+
+- `tool_use`
+- `tool_result`
+- `content_block_start`
+- `input_json_delta`
+- `message_delta`
+- current permission and sandbox flow
+- current synthetic tool/result handling
+- current transcript persistence and resume logic
+
+`codex exec` emits a different event model:
+
+- `thread.started`
+- `turn.started`
+- `turn.completed`
+- `turn.failed`
+- `item.started`
+- `item.updated`
+- `item.completed`
+
+and item types such as:
+
+- `agent_message`
+- `reasoning`
+- `command_execution`
+- `file_change`
+- `mcp_tool_call`
+
+That is not just a different wire format. It is a different runtime shape.
+
+## What Changes Per Repo
+
+### `agent_teams_orchestrator`
+
+This repo takes the biggest change.
+
+We want to:
+
+- introduce a provider-neutral normalized event/log model
+- add adapter mappers from current Anthropic/Gemini style streams into that model
+- add a separate `Codex-native` backend lane through `@openai/codex-sdk / codex exec`
+- keep the current Codex adapter path alive as fallback during migration
+- avoid forcing `codex exec` events into fake `tool_use/tool_result` transport semantics
+
+We do **not** want to:
+
+- replace the current Codex backend in one shot
+- rewrite all providers around Codex-native semantics
+- make transcript/log normalization depend on Anthropic wire events
+
+### `claude_team`
+
+This repo should stay relatively stable compared with the orchestrator.
+
+We want to:
+
+- keep one multimodel runtime concept
+- stay capability-aware per provider/backend lane
+- consume normalized runtime/log DTOs rather than assuming one provider-shaped event model
+- integrate plugin management through `plugin-kit-ai`
+- keep Codex plugin support gated behind the real Codex-native lane
+
+We do **not** want to:
+
+- invent a fake Codex plugin support state while execution still goes through the old adapter lane
+- force UI logic to infer runtime truth from provider labels alone
+
+### `plugin-kit-ai`
+
+This repo remains the management engine, not the execution engine.
+
+We want to:
+
+- use it for catalog
+- use it for discover
+- use it for install/update/remove/repair
+- use it for native Codex plugin placement through native marketplace/filesystem layout
+
+We do **not** want to:
+
+- make it responsible for running Codex plugins inside sessions
+- blur installation and execution into one concern
+
+## Target Architecture
+
+### Runtime execution
+
+- `Anthropic` can continue on the current path for now
+- `Gemini` can continue on the current path for now
+- `Codex-native` gets a dedicated backend lane through `@openai/codex-sdk / codex exec`
+
+### Internal normalization
+
+All runtime backends must project into a shared internal event/log model.
+
+The normalized layer should represent concepts such as:
+
+- turn started
+- assistant text
+- reasoning
+- command execution
+- MCP call
+- file change
+- approval request
+- turn completed
+- turn failed
+
+The normalized format is the source of truth for:
+
+- logs
+- transcript projection
+- analytics
+- UI-facing activity/event summaries
+
+The normalized format is **not** required to preserve provider-native wire semantics.
+
+## Codex Plugins Strategy
+
+For Codex plugins we want:
+
+- native Codex runtime execution
+- native Codex marketplace/filesystem placement
+- provider-aware plugin management in `claude_team`
+
+Therefore:
+
+- `plugin-kit-ai` is the management engine
+- real Codex runtime is the execution engine
+
+This is important because plugin installation and plugin execution are different concerns.
+
+Installing a native Codex plugin is not enough by itself if the session still runs through our current Responses API adapter path.
+
+## App Server Position
+
+`codex app-server` remains relevant, but not as the first critical path for this migration.
+
+It is better positioned as a later control-plane enhancement for things like:
+
+- auth state
+- MCP status and OAuth flows
+- skills/config inspection
+- external config import
+
+For the first production rollout, it should not be the hard dependency for plugin lifecycle management.
+
+## Implementation Phases
+
+### Phase 1
+
+- design and introduce the normalized internal event/log layer
+- keep current backends working
+- define the internal mapping contract clearly
+
+### Phase 2
+
+- add a `Codex-native` backend lane through `@openai/codex-sdk / codex exec`
+- keep the current Codex adapter as fallback
+- validate API-key mode, working directory behavior, sandbox mode, approval policy, thread resume, and streaming
+
+### Phase 3
+
+- integrate `plugin-kit-ai` for provider-aware plugin management
+- add native Codex plugin placement through native marketplace/filesystem model
+- keep current UI provider-aware and capability-aware
+
+### Phase 4
+
+- optionally add selective `codex app-server` control-plane integration where it provides clear value
+
+## Main Risks And Guardrails
+
+### Risk 1 - treating `codex-sdk/exec` as a transport-only swap
+
+This is the most dangerous mistake.
+
+Guardrail:
+
+- treat `Codex-native` as a separate runtime lane
+- normalize logs/events above it
+- do not assume the current Anthropic-shaped tool loop can be preserved unchanged
+
+### Risk 2 - claiming Codex plugin support too early
+
+Installing native Codex plugins is not enough if execution still runs through the current adapter path.
+
+Guardrail:
+
+- only advertise Codex plugin support when the session actually runs through the Codex-native lane
+
+### Risk 3 - overcommitting to `app-server` too early
+
+`codex app-server` is useful, but it should not become a hard dependency for the first production plugin rollout.
+
+Guardrail:
+
+- use it later for selective control-plane features
+- do not block the first migration on `app-server plugin/*`
+
+## Practical Rule
+
+If we need **unified logs**, we normalize events.
+
+If we need **native Codex capabilities**, we do not fake Codex into Anthropic runtime semantics.
+
+That is the core architectural rule for this migration.
