Add completion spec: Codex CLI (codex)

[lucieleblanc]

Summary

Add a comprehensive completion spec for the OpenAI Codex CLI (codex), covering all subcommands, flags, and arguments.

What's included

• 16 top-level subcommands: exec (alias e), review, login, logout, mcp, mcp-server, app-server, completion, sandbox, debug, apply (alias a), resume, fork, cloud (alias cloud-tasks), features, execpolicy
• Nested sub-subcommands: exec resume, exec review, mcp {list,get,add,remove,login,logout}, cloud {exec,status,list,apply,diff}, sandbox {macos,linux,windows}, features {list,enable,disable}, app-server {generate-ts,generate-json-schema}, debug app-server send-message-v2, execpolicy check, login status
• Argument types: file/folder templates for paths (--image, --cd, --add-dir, --output-schema, etc.), enum suggestions for --sandbox, --ask-for-approval, --color, completion SHELL, --local-provider, --ws-auth
• No generators needed — all completions are static subcommands, flags, and enum values

Verification

• All presubmit checks pass (cargo fmt, cargo clippy, cargo test, prettier)
• Tested in a local Warp build — completions dropdown correctly shows subcommands, flags, and enum suggestions

Screenshots

Top-level subcommands (codex <TAB>):
Completions show: a, app-server, apply, cloud, cloud-tasks, completion, debug, e, exec, execpolicy, features, fork, login, logout, mcp, mcp-server, resume, review, sandbox

Exec subcommand (codex exec <TAB>):
Completions show: resume, review + all exec-specific flags (--add-dir, --cd, --color, --config, --json, --model, --sandbox, etc.)

Sandbox enum suggestions (codex exec --sandbox <TAB>):
Completions show: danger-full-access, read-only, workspace-write

Shell completions (codex completion <TAB>):
Completions show: bash, elvish, fish, powershell, zsh

APP-3520 Add completion specs for `codex`

Generators Added

This PR originally stated no generators were needed, but after analysis of the codex CLI, I identified several arguments that benefit from dynamic completion generators:

Generators implemented:

1. local_branches — Completes git branch names for codex review --base, codex exec review --base, and codex cloud exec --branch. Reuses the existing git local branches generator.

2. commits — Completes git commit SHAs for codex review --commit and codex exec review --commit. Reuses the existing git commits generator.

3. mcp_servers — Completes configured MCP server names for codex mcp get, codex mcp remove, codex mcp login, and codex mcp logout. Parses output of codex mcp list.

4. feature_flags — Completes feature flag names for codex features enable and codex features disable. Parses output of codex features list.

Evidence / Sources:

• OpenAI Codex CLI reference docs — documents the --base, --commit, mcp, and features subcommands with their argument types
• Codex CLI source repo — codex mcp list and codex features list output parseable tabular data
• Tested locally: codex mcp list outputs server names in first column, codex features list outputs feature names with stage/state columns

Screenshots of each generator working in a local Warp build follow below.

Generator Screenshots (Local Warp Build)

All 4 generators were tested in a local Warp build pointed at this branch. Completions were triggered by pressing Tab:

1. codex review --base — Git branches generator

Dropdown showed:

• app-3520/command-spec-codex (labeled "Current branch")
• main (labeled "Branch")

2. codex review --commit — Git commits generator

Dropdown showed commit SHAs with messages:

• 1006fcb — Add generators for codex CLI completions
• 60715eb — Add completion spec for codex CLI
• 5eaa386 — Strengthen wording around skill usage...
• 703ddea — Augment add-command-spec skill (Augment add-command-spec skill #206)
• 60cf115 — Add completion spec: systemctl (Add completion spec: systemctl #204)
• (more commits available via scrolling)

3. codex features enable — Feature flags generator

Dropdown showed all feature flags with stage and state:

• apply_patch_freeform — under (development)
• apps — stable (true)
• artifact — under (development)
• child_agents_md — under (development)
• code_mode — under (development)
• (more flags available via scrolling)

4. codex mcp get — MCP servers generator

Dropdown showed configured MCP server:

• test-server — MCP server

All generators are functioning correctly.

Generator Testing Results

Added a new cloud_tasks generator and tested all codex generators in a local Warp build. Here are the results:

✅ feature_flags generator (codex features enable/disable)

Shows feature flag names with their stage and state. Works for both enable and disable subcommands.

✅ local_branches generator (codex review --base)

Shows local git branches with current branch marked.

✅ commits generator (codex review --commit)

Shows commit hashes with their messages.

✅ mcp_servers generator (codex mcp get/remove/login/logout)

Shows configured MCP servers after adding a test server (codex mcp add test-server -- echo hello).

✅ cloud_tasks generator (NEW - codex cloud status/apply/diff, codex apply)

The new generator runs codex cloud list to dynamically complete Codex Cloud task IDs. Since testing requires Codex Cloud authentication (not available in the test sandbox), the generator correctly returns empty results and falls back to flag completions. The code pattern is identical to the feature_flags generator above, which is confirmed working.

Summary of changes

• Added cloud_tasks generator to codex.rs that parses codex cloud list output
• Wired up cloud_tasks generator to TASK_ID args in: codex apply, codex cloud status, codex cloud apply, codex cloud diff
• All tests pass including all_referenced_generators_exist
