Round-1 Codex review findings on the bridges: - Stop force-continue (both bridges): a blocking Stop hook with EMPTY stderr yielded decision 'deny' + reason undefined, and the `&& reason !== undefined` guard let the turn STOP — the opposite of a blocking Stop hook. Force-continue on any deny; fall back to a generic steering line when there is no reason. - Codex payload tool_name: hardcoded "Bash" disagreed with the exec.name matcher subject, so a real Codex `matcher:"Bash"` never fired against the harness's lowercase `bash` tool. Use exec.name in both payload builders (matches the matcher subject and the sibling CC bridge). Doc/RFC updated. - Codex plain-stdout context: SessionStart/UserPromptSubmit are documented to treat a clean hook's PLAIN (non-JSON) stdout as additionalContext, but nothing folded it. runPoint now folds plain stdout into context for those two events, gated on the codec's JSON gate so structured stdout is never dumped as prose. - continue:false is deferred, not honored: the seams have no hard-halt primitive yet. TODO(hook-continue-false) at both bridges + an RFC deferred note; the two tests now assert the LOG records the halt request AND that the run is NOT actually halted (no longer misleading). - README concurrency wording: hooks run SERIALLY (deliberate — adjacent invoked/result log pairs, order-independent fold), not concurrently. Fixed the CC README claim + an RFC note. Regression guards proven red on the unfixed code, then reverted. The mismatched- hookEventName discard (also flagged) is fixed in dsh-hook-protocol and merged down.

@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/modelextras, written without a trailing newline. - No env vars and no command substitution (a literal
${…}in a command survives verbatim). - A block-only decision model —
allow/askare 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) |
block → PreToolDecision.deny (no allow/ask) |
PostToolUse |
tools/post-execute (waterfall) |
block → block 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.
