Tianyi Cui 4da2b99bc3 fix(hooks-codex): gate plain-stdout→context on a clean exit; harden HMR + absence tests
Round-2 Codex review of the round-1 fixes:

- (A) The Codex plain-stdout→additionalContext fold (F1) was not gated on exit
  code, so a NON-clean hook's stdout still injected: a SessionStart `echo stale;
  exit 2` (an emit — cannot block) wrongly injected "stale", and a
  UserPromptSubmit `exit 1` (non-blocking error → falls through to context) did
  too. Gate the fold on `output.exitCode === 0`, matching the codec's own
  structured-stdout rule. Guard tests for both paths, proven red without the gate.
- (B) The Codex "SessionStart no-context no-op" absence test was unsound (a
  completed turn doesn't prove the detached hook finished). It now touches a
  marker and waitFor()s it before asserting no context.
- (B) Both HMR tests used a no-op `true` hook, so a leaked listener would still
  pass. They now use a BLOCKING (exit 2) UserPromptSubmit hook and assert the
  post-dispose turn is NOT blocked and logs no hook/invoked — a leaked listener
  fails loudly.

@deepseek-ai/dsh-hooks-codex

A cordis plugin that runs a user's existing Codex hooks.json on the harness's canonical interception seams. The Codex dialect half of the hooks subsystem. The dialect-agnostic primitives come from @deepseek-ai/dsh-hook-protocol; this bridge owns the Codex-specific payloads, matcher mode, and decision mapping.

Codex's hook protocol is a deliberate subset of Claude Code's (same hooks.json shape):

  • Five hook points only: PreToolUse, PostToolUse, SessionStart, UserPromptSubmit, Stop — no subagent / notification / compaction hooks.
  • Regex-only matchers (no literal fast path; the matcher is always an unanchored regex).
  • snake_case stdin payloads with turn_id/model extras, written without a trailing newline.
  • No env vars and no command substitution (a literal ${…} in a command survives verbatim).
  • A block-only decision modelallow/ask are not honored; a hook can only block, never pre-approve.

A native cordis plugin could do everything this bridge does, more powerfully; the bridge exists only to run UNMODIFIED external Codex hooks faithfully (see the interception-seams RFC).

Config

import type { Config } from '@deepseek-ai/dsh-hooks-codex'
const config: Config = {
  configPath: '/path/to/.codex/hooks.json', // required
  model: 'deepseek-v4',                      // optional: stamped on every payload (Codex includes `model`)
  defaultTimeoutMs: 600_000,                 // optional: per-hook timeout when a hook sets none
}

In a cordis.yml:

- dsh-hooks-codex:
    configPath: ./.codex/hooks.json
    model: deepseek-v4

The config is parsed once at load; a read/parse failure is contained (logs + registers nothing). Only sync type: 'command' hooks run — a non-command or async: true hook is parsed-and-skipped with a warning. A hook accepts timeout or the timeoutSec alias. Events outside the five Codex points are dropped at parse.

Hook points → seam Decisions

Codex hook Harness seam Mapping
SessionStart agent/session-start (emit) a plain-stdout hook's output → additionalContext → agent.inject()
UserPromptSubmit agent/prompt-submit (waterfall) block (exit 2) → PromptDecision.block; additionalContext → allow with context
PreToolUse tools/pre-execute (waterfall) blockPreToolDecision.deny (no allow/ask)
PostToolUse tools/post-execute (waterfall) blockblock with feedback; additionalContext → accept with context
Stop agent/turn-continuation (waterfall) a blocking Stop hook forces continue with the reason as next-step steering

A tool call's payload carries the real tool_name (the same value the matcher tests) and Codex's tool_input: { command } shape (the command arg when present, else ''). The matcher subject is the tool name (PreToolUse/PostToolUse) or the session source (SessionStart); UserPromptSubmit/Stop ignore matchers.

Context source

Injected context carries an explicit { kind: 'plugin', plugin: 'hooks-codex' } source (agent.inject() would otherwise default it to { kind: 'user' }).

Deferred

Stop loop-guard (TODO(stop-loop-guard)): as in CC, a Stop hook that unconditionally blocks would force-continue every step (stop_hook_active is always false here); the loop-guard is deferred. A hook author must self-limit until it lands.
