Ports the Windows-relevant Codex fork accounting behavior from upstream v0.64.0 (9b4d429f3). Copied-prefix subagent rollouts now infer their inherited component baseline from their own history, bill only owned usage, preserve model attribution, and persist a locally resolved cache marker so warm scans do not reread unchanged history.

This PR is stacked on #589 because it extends the paginated Codex history and cache contract introduced there.

Validation:

  • cargo test --manifest-path rust/Cargo.toml copied_prefix_subagent --lib
  • cargo test --manifest-path rust/Cargo.toml paginated --lib
  • cargo test --manifest-path rust/Cargo.toml --lib (2102 passed, 1 ignored)
  • cargo clippy --manifest-path rust/Cargo.toml --lib --tests -- -D warnings
  • cargo fmt --all
  • git diff --check

Thermo-nuclear code-quality review

Verdict: FINDINGS

High — replace the coupled scanner flags with an explicit parse mode

rust/src/core/jsonl_scanner/codex.rs:473 and rust/src/core/jsonl_scanner/codex/parser.rs:236

The inferred-baseline path adds infer_fork_baseline and subagent_history_start_ordinal to an already long positional call, then mutates a normally constructed parser through enable_fork_baseline_inference. Inference state is split between ForkBaselineInference and a special preamble in process_line, creating two line-processing paths and allowing invalid parameter combinations.

Please introduce a typed mode such as CodexParseMode::{Standard, ParentBaseline(...), InferSubagent { start_ordinal }} and initialize the parser completely from that mode. Inference should return a typed decision such as SkipCopiedPrefix or ProcessWithBaseline, keeping decoding and model updates in one pipeline. This removes the boolean/Option coupling and the expanding positional invocation.

The dedicated ForkBaselineInference is otherwise a useful boundary. No under-1k production file crosses 1k in this patch.

Thermo-nuclear re-review

Verdict: FINDINGS

High — persist the locally resolved inherited-only state

The original coupled parser boolean/Option finding is resolved by CodexParseMode::{Standard, ParentBaseline, InferSubagent}. The new review found one cache-state defect at 505fa0699:

Copied snapshots can set locally_confirmed without producing ProcessWithBaseline, leaving fork_baseline_locally_resolved == true but fork_baseline == None (parser.rs:142, :301). The cache writer constructs CodexForkAccountingState only through parse_result.fork_baseline.map(...) (cost_scanner/codex.rs:718), so that valid terminal state is discarded. With the parent later unavailable, freshness checks cannot see the locally resolved marker and the unchanged inherited-only history is reread indefinitely.

Persist the locally resolved accounting state independently of whether an owned-event baseline exists, or represent the terminal inference result explicitly. Add a second-scan/history-read assertion to the inherited-only test matching the advancing-baseline coverage.

Thermo-nuclear current-head findings

Reviewed head 340de7dab.

High — explicit fork boundaries accept token rows with no ordinal

When explicit_start_ordinal exists, a token row without an ordinal currently bypasses the < start guard and opens the owned boundary. Ordinal-less rows must stay in the copied prefix until a present ordinal reaches the boundary.

High — local inference overrides a validated parent baseline

Every forked subagent is marked for inference, and inference is selected before fork_baseline. That discards an available cached or parent-derived baseline. Enable inference only when no validated baseline exists. Encode parent baseline, local inference, and unresolved states in one typed accounting mode so precedence cannot drift.

Earlier parser-mode and inherited-only cache findings are fixed. Verdict remains FINDINGS until these two accounting blockers are corrected and re-reviewed.

Thermo-nuclear current-head review — BLOCKED

Reviewed exact head d3be0188aa0c4672f9ad3115b6c516f24fa908f2 against current main.

P1 — Cached local inference can override a later validated parent baseline

The scanner selects cached_fork_baseline.or(parent_fork_baseline). If the child is first scanned while its parent is unavailable, a locally inferred baseline is cached. When the validated parent later becomes available, the weaker cached inference still wins, and unchanged-child continuation can retain it permanently.

Required remedy: encode baseline provenance in CodexAccountingMode, prefer a currently validated parent baseline over cached local inference, reset cached continuation state when the source changes, and add the two-scan transition test:

  1. infer/cache child baseline without parent;
  2. make parent baseline available;
  3. rescan and prove the parent becomes authoritative.

The ordinal-less boundary fix and typed modes pass the structural review. No production file crosses 1,000 lines.

CUA classification: not required; this is backend scanner/accounting behavior.

Reviewed exact head f64861c0a4cf40919a215f6455673320e2c6f463.

P1 — Cached local inference bypasses parent-transition logic

codex_fork_parent_is_safe treats every locally_resolved fork as safe. The unchanged-file fast path can therefore return before reading metadata or calculating a newly available validated parent baseline, making the new provenance-replacement branch unreachable for an unchanged cached child.

Required remedy: resolve parent availability before accepting locally inferred cache state. Make correctness independent of candidate order: process validated parents first or revisit locally inferred children after the parent enters cache. Then force the full child reparse through validated-parent replacement. Cover both parent-first and child-first transitions.

The ordinal boundary, typed modes, centralized accounting, and file-size checks pass.

Thermo-nuclear final review: PASS at exact head f7d1ad974c9e8d136610d1a59c55b5cde781266c (base bca91ac50bc52ac5ddd35d48d2b92a96434920e6).

No actionable maintainability findings remain. The reviewer verified parent-baseline precedence over cached local inference, reconsideration/deferment of locally inferred children, parent-first and child-first regression coverage, copied-prefix boundaries for ordinal-less rows, typed accounting modes/provenance, persisted inherited-only resolution, file-size limits, and git diff --check.

CodeRabbit is green. Merge remains gated on the current CircleCI Windows run.

Thermo-nuclear review of exact head b77e3c151a33e29b97020f8081678c2f6590590a against current main: BLOCKED.

  1. P1 — duplicate IDs and cycles do not fail closed. Duplicate session IDs are treated as having no known parent, and cycles fall back to discovery order. A child can temporarily see only one duplicate owner and accept an ambiguous baseline; cyclic subagents can consume locally inferred members as parents. Represent ambiguous duplicate/cyclic dependencies explicitly, prevent baseline acceptance/inference for them, and add duplicate-parent, two-node-cycle, and self-cycle tests.

  2. P2 — rust/src/cost_scanner/tests/paginated.rs exceeds 1,000 lines. Move the cohesive copied-prefix/fork-accounting suite into a focused test module.

The one-pass bounded queue, candidate/per-file limits, single-read diagnostics, cancellation queueing, and valid parent-chain ordering otherwise pass review.

Thermo-nuclear review of exact head 4d0b5993a5b772f491c950b68be2b79a6acdc2ee: BLOCKED on one remaining P1.

Lineage validation currently sees only the admitted batch after codex_candidate_limit is applied. Duplicate owners or cycles split across bounded refreshes can therefore leave cached local inference treated as safe. codex_parent_baseline also conflates absent and ambiguous parents, and locally inferred/transitively unsafe cached entries can become authoritative parents.

Required remedy: evaluate lineage against the persisted cache graph plus admitted candidates, use a typed absent / uniquely-safe / ambiguous-or-unsafe result, reject inferred or transitively unsafe parent entries, and propagate unsafe lineage through cached dependents. Add candidate_limit = 1 multi-refresh coverage for duplicate owners, an equal-timestamp two-node cycle, self-cycle migration, and a dependent of an unsafe parent.

Same-batch ambiguity, one-slot/one-allowance processing, single diagnostics, cancellation queueing, and test-file decomposition otherwise pass.

Thermo-nuclear current-head review — BLOCKED

Reviewed exact head 0a2789e8037c5880256ad974870693ece3fbf544 against base d99294c92926802ae0aee4d58aa15e0e6b537a5a. git diff --check, the four cross-refresh tests, the 100-test Codex scanner suite, the full local CI mirror, CircleCI, and CodeRabbit pass, but three actionable findings remain:

  1. P1 — stale identity can reuse old lineage. Parent validation accepts unavailable file identities, while the scan path can treat matching size/mtime as identity and reuse stale session, parent, and accounting metadata after same-path replacement. Require confirmed identity equality before reusing lineage state.
  2. P1 — missing ordinals can suppress owned usage. Inference can become locally confirmed from the start-ordinal marker alone while ordinal-less token rows are skipped, allowing a completed file to cache zero owned usage. Missing ordinal evidence must remain unresolved.
  3. P2 — duplicated lineage state machines. Parent resolution, candidate ordering, and accounting selection independently model lineage safety. Consolidate these rules into one typed lineage planner so absent/safe/unsafe decisions cannot drift.

Merge remains blocked pending fixes and exact-head re-review.

Thermo re-review at ac88694a92fd5aa1093b949252c916d30d06f3ae: FINDINGS.

The previous accounting findings are resolved: typed parse modes, inherited-only resolution persistence, fail-closed ordinal checks, validated-parent precedence, child reprocessing, cross-refresh duplicate/cycle rejection, and file-identity validation. The oversized pagination test suite is split.

P2 — Reuse lineage planning across the refresh. rust/src/cost_scanner/codex.rs:505 constructs a planner over the complete cache for each file decision, and freshness checks at lines 104–105 do the same. codex/logical_target.rs:37–52,134–168,227–230 rebuilds and repeatedly scans that graph. At the 512-candidate default, this multiplies whole-cache work across individual files. Keep a refresh-level lineage index/planner, update or invalidate it deliberately as candidates change, and avoid building it for root-only decisions. Preserve parent validation, duplicate/cycle rejection, and cache identity semantics.

This remains a merge blocker. A worker is implementing the correction; the earlier green check is not a closeout for this new finding.

Thermo follow-up at 5d2d39efe9803efbba24b265b516335984f345bd: source blockers are corrected and an independent review found no remaining blocker in this fix.

  • Lineage planning is reused per refresh rather than rebuilt for each candidate; root-only warm scans avoid graph construction.
  • Current session metadata takes precedence over stale unresolved/local-inference cache flags, allowing a child to resolve after its parent becomes available on a later bounded scan.
  • The full graph remains available for parent resolution, while invalidation is limited to the active scan and its required parent dependencies. An unrelated historical cycle retains its cached history; ambiguous owners required by an active child still fail closed.

The existing fork-parent regression and the new historical-cache regression both pass in the integrated backend suite: 2,222 tests passed, one pre-existing ignored. No accounting assertion was weakened. Integration #610 preserves these commits and requires the full current-main Windows gate before merge. The earlier native scan stall is not being claimed resolved solely from source review or unit tests.
