Cause: CodexAdapterV2.runGoalCommand always sent /goal resume through activateGoal with empty input. When Codex has already started the active goal's turn (it does so on thread/resume), that empty turn/start tries to steer the running turn and Codex rejects it with EmptyInput, so the run fails while the goal keeps working with no T3 run attached. Fix: /goal resume on an active goal now attaches its run to the running native turn instead of starting one. (1) A turn that starts while the command is in flight: resume registers its turnInput in pendingRootTurns before thread/goal/get, so the existing turn/started branch registers that native turn for this run. Before, it was treated as an orphan goal turn and paused and interrupted. (2) A turn Codex started earlier (the reported post-restart case): the turn/started fallthrough now records it in a small per-thread unownedTurns map, cleared on turn/completed. Resume adopts it via registerRootTurn under turnTerminalizationPermit, and the turn/completed lookup takes the same permit, so a completion cannot be missed between finding the turn and registering it. Paused-goal resume and resume with no running turn are unchanged. The pendingRootTurns cleanup is factored into clearPendingRootTurn (reused by startNativeTurn) and also runs when runGoalCommand ends. Change to the repro test: I added one thread/goal/updated status=complete notification before the turn completes. Without it the test hangs on any correct fix: an active goal's completed turn is held for the existing 5s continuation grace (CODEX_GOAL_CONTINUATION_GRACE) before pausing the goal, and the test neither advances the TestClock nor expects the pause request. All of the test's assertions are unchanged, and it still fails on base with 'expected [...] to not include turn/start'. Case (2) has no dedicated test: the replay harness offers nothing observable to wait on before startTurn. No new regex or parser.

Fixes #20232

Reproduction on main

On origin/main f03db4f, web client against T3CODE_DEV_SEED=0 vp run dev (fresh database) with a real Codex provider (codex-cli 0.167.2). 1) In a new Codex thread, sent /goal Run the shell command \sleep 25` twelve separate times...; provider log showed goal set paused, turn/start with the goal prompt, goal set active, turn/started. 2) Stopped the dev server while that turn ran, restarted it. On thread/resume Codex emitted thread/goal/updated status=active and turn/started inProgress on its own; T3's restart continuation then sent turn/start input=[] and got error -32603 EmptyInput (the restart side, covered by open PR #21610). 3) Sent /goal resume`: provider log showed thread/goal/get (status active) -> turn/start input=[] -> error -32603 'failed to submit turn input: EmptyInput'. The UI showed the thread as Failed with 'Provider error: The provider could not start this turn', while the provider log kept showing item/started events for Codex's still-running goal turn. Failing test pushed: 'native goals > /goal resume tracks the goal turn Codex already started' in apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/CodexAdapterV2.test.ts fails on main because a turn/start request is sent.

Evidence

Being captured: before and after in the real app. This section is filled in before the pull request can merge.

Tests

vp test run src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/CodexAdapterV2.test.ts -t 'goal resume tracks' on base adapter + updated test: fails (asserts no turn/start). With fix: -t 'native goals' 12/12 pass; full CodexAdapterV2.test.ts 160/160 pass. vp run check:changed: format, lint, knip, graphql, typecheck (3 packages), tests (2 files, 162) all pass.

Not in this change

• Restart continuation still sends turn/start with empty input after a restart while Codex runs the goal turn (the restart side, open PR fix(server): preserve queued steering across restarts #21610).
• /goal resume on an active goal with no running native turn still falls through to an empty turn/start; whether Codex accepts that on an idle thread was not verified here.
• pendingSubagentTurns keeps entries for root-thread turns that never become subagent threads; pre-existing, not changed.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at 34632ca

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — The change lets /goal resume track a goal turn Codex already started rather than launch a competing turn. It synchronizes adoption with completion handling and preserves existing orphan-turn safeguards.

Walkthrough

The Codex adapter now tracks native turns that start without an owning run. When resuming an active goal, it can adopt a recorded turn instead of starting another turn. A regression test covers the case where the native turn starts before the goal lookup returns.

Changes: Codex goal resume

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Record unowned turns apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/CodexAdapterV2.ts	The adapter records a native turn’s ID and start time when existing handling does not claim it.
Adopt a turn during goal resume apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/CodexAdapterV2.ts	Goal resume registers pending input and attempts to adopt an unowned turn when the goal is already active. Cleanup clears matching pending entries.
Serialize completion and verify resume apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/CodexAdapterV2.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/CodexAdapterV2.test.ts	Completion handling removes a matching unowned record under the terminalization permit. The replay test checks that resume succeeds without another turn/start and emits a completed terminal event.

Resuming a goal whose native turn is already running can lose messages or subagent results that completed before the run attached. A narrower race can also send an extra empty turn request. Resolve the item-loss concern, or confirm that snapshots restore those items, before merging.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the main change: /goal resume for Codex goals now tracks the native goal turn that Codex already started, instead of sending an empty turn/start. It follows the conventional commit format and matches the linked bug (#20232) and the described fix in CodexAdapterV2.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #20232 requires that /goal resume on a blocked Codex goal does not fail with EmptyInput while native work continues, and that the goal resumes with a tracked run. The reviewed diff addresses this in CodexAdapterV2.ts: (1) For command.type === "resume", runGoalCommand registers turnInput in pendingRootTurns before thread/goal/get. A native turn that starts during the command is bound to this run by the existing turn/started branch. (2) For a turn Codex started earlier, the turn/started fallthrough records it in unownedTurns. Resume with an active goal adopts it through registerRootTurn under turnTerminalizationPermit, and the turn/completed lookup takes the same permit. When adoption succeeds, the adapter returns without sending turn/start. The repro test native goals > /goal resume tracks the goal turn Codex already started asserts that no turn/start is sent. The author reports it fails on base and passes with the fix. The test adds one thread/goal/updated status=complete notification to avoid the 5s continuation grace. The author states that the test's assertions are unchanged. The earlier-started-turn path (case 2) has no dedicated test, so its behavior rests on the diff reading. Restart continuation (#21610 scope) and the no-running-turn case are excluded by the issue scope or the PR description. The 'Evidence' section (real-app before/after) is pending, which is a process item, not a coding requirement.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

All changes in CodexAdapterV2.ts relate to the /goal resume path described in #20232. These are: the unownedTurns map and its set and clear logic on turn/started and turn/completed; the clearPendingRootTurn helper, extracted from startNativeTurn and reused in runGoalCommand cleanup; the resume-specific pendingRootTurns registration; and the adoption block for active goals. The turn/completed change adds the terminalization permit, which supports the adoption race fix. The test change is limited to the repro test and adds one notification that the author justifies. No unrelated files or behavior changes appear in the reviewed diff. The PR description's 'Not in this change' items are excluded by the issue scope and were not implemented.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the template. It has a Cause/Problem section with the expected behavior and reproduction steps, a Change section that explains the fix in two cases and the cleanup, a Scope section that links issue #20232, and a Verification section with specific tests and results. A Reproduction section and a Not in this change section are also included. The Evidence section is still a placeholder: before and after captures are noted as pending, and the template says the section must be filled before merge. The template also asks for the model and harness when an agent was used. The description states it is AI-assisted but does not name the model or harness.

Resolution

Attach the before and after evidence in the Evidence section, or state that the change has no UI effect. Name the model and harness that did the work, as the template asks. Keep the rest of the description as written.

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Recognize attempts that complete during the goal lookup.

If turn/started arrives while thread/goal/get is pending, the pending entry registers this attempt. If turn/completed then arrives before the lookup response, finalizeCodexTurn removes the context from activeTurns and can place it in goalHolds.

This check then returns false. No unowned record exists, so execution calls activateGoal and sends another empty turn/start. The resumed attempt can fail after its native work already completed.

Track whether this resume attempt claimed a turn, including held or terminalized turns. Extend the replay case to place completion before the goal lookup response.

As per coding guidelines, “Backend behavior changes ship with focused tests for that behavior.”

Buffer items from an unowned turn until /goal resume adopts it.

An item/completed event for an unowned turn finds no active turn context. resolveItemEventContext waits through awaitActiveTurn, which yields at most 1,000 times and then returns undefined. The handler then returns without recording the item. registerRootTurn creates the adopted context with empty itemPositions and does not replay earlier items. A completed assistant message or subagent spawn that finishes before adoption can therefore be absent from the resumed run.

Store items received for an unowned turn, keyed by native turn ID. Apply them when runGoalCommand adopts that turn under turnTerminalizationPermit. Do not drop them when no active context exists. Add a restoration path only if no existing snapshot read restores them first.

The automated pipeline stopped on this pull request and will not merge it:

the fix is written and reviewed, but proving it needs something no worker has:

• Permanent blocker: The reproduction requires native Codex CLI with a first-party ChatGPT account, explicitly unavailable on this VM. Replay cannot reproduce Codex automatically starting a native goal turn during thread/resume.
• The reported pre-adoption commentary ordering defect and resumed-run header timestamp were not verified.
• The race where turn/started arrives while thread/goal/get is in flight was not exercised.
• Base EmptyInput failure and head completion of the adopted native turn were not observed.

It stays open for a person to finish or close.

Note

🤖 Claude Opus 5.5 responding on behalf of Philip.

Live check of base f03db4fbef and head 34632caa2 with a native Codex CLI on a ChatGPT account, covering two of the items the pipeline couldn't prove. Setup: isolated server from each checkout (serve --base-dir, fresh state, continueThreadsAfterServerUpdate: false), real codex app-server 0.167.1, Linux, CLI only. Flow: /goal with eight 30 s checkpoints, stop the server after checkpoint 1, restart, thread send "/goal resume". Sequences come from each instance's provider log.

Base f03db4fbef: EmptyInput reproduced.

T3->Codex thread/resume
Codex->T3 thread/goal/updated  active
Codex->T3 turn/started         …9c3bcc4c
T3->Codex thread/goal/get
T3->Codex turn/start           input []
Codex->T3 error -32603         failed to submit turn input: EmptyInput

The thread ends failed while Codex's turn keeps running (7 more item/started after the resume).

Head 34632caa2: the adopted turn completes.

T3->Codex thread/resume
Codex->T3 thread/goal/updated  active
Codex->T3 turn/started         …2f82bd2b
T3->Codex thread/goal/get
Codex->T3 turn/completed       …2f82bd2b completed   (3 m 47 s later)

No turn/start and no thread/goal/set after the resume. The run reached checkpoint 8/8, the model marked the goal complete, and the thread ended completed. No EmptyInput, and codex-goal-turn-without-run never fired.

Not covered: the race where turn/started arrives while thread/goal/get is in flight (in both runs it came first), the commentary ordering and resumed-run header timestamp (UI only, this was CLI), blocked goals, Stop, and desktop, macOS and Windows.
