## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work > - A Codex agent runs `codex exec`, and the adapter assembles its argument vector from the agent's config plus execution-context options > - For sandbox execution the adapter injects `--skip-git-repo-check`, because a headless remote workspace has no git trust prompt to answer > - The adapter also appends the operator's `extraArgs` verbatim, so an agent that already lists `--skip-git-repo-check` in its config gets the flag twice on a sandbox run > - `codex exec` rejects a repeated `--skip-git-repo-check` and exits with code 2, which the adapter surfaces as `adapter_failed` before any work runs > - This pull request skips the sandbox injection when the operator's args already carry the flag > - The benefit is that a common, harmless-looking config no longer crashes every sandbox run ## Linked Issues or Issue Description **What happened?** A `codex_local` agent configured with `extraArgs: ["--skip-git-repo-check"]` fails on every sandbox run: ``` error: the argument '--skip-git-repo-check' cannot be used multiple times Usage: codex exec [OPTIONS] [PROMPT] ``` The adapter reports `stopReason: "adapter_failed"` (Codex exited with code 2). The flag appears twice in the argv: once injected by the adapter for sandbox execution, once from the operator's `extraArgs`. **Steps to reproduce** 1. Configure a `codex_local` agent with `extraArgs: ["--skip-git-repo-check"]` (or the legacy `args` field). 2. Point it at a sandbox environment. 3. Start a run — `codex exec` aborts immediately on the duplicate flag. **Expected behavior** The run launches with a single `--skip-git-repo-check`. An operator listing the flag the adapter already injects should be a no-op, not a hard failure. **Paperclip version** Current `master`. **Deployment mode** Any deployment running Codex agents in sandbox environments. ## What Changed - `buildCodexExecArgs` no longer pushes the sandbox `--skip-git-repo-check` when the resolved args (`extraArgs`, or the legacy `args` fallback) already contain it. The operator's copy stands; the argv carries the flag exactly once. Non-sandbox runs and configs without the flag are unchanged. ## Verification - `cd packages/adapters/codex-local && pnpm vitest run src/server/codex-args.test.ts` — new cases: `extraArgs` already carrying the flag (single occurrence), the legacy `args` field carrying it (single occurrence), and the operator's flag preserved when the sandbox injection is not requested. Existing "adds --skip-git-repo-check when requested" case unchanged. - `cd packages/adapters/codex-local && pnpm vitest run` — full package suite (218 tests). - `pnpm run typecheck` in the package. ## Risks - Low. The change only suppresses a duplicate of a single, idempotent flag; it never removes an operator-supplied argument and never adds one that was not already going to be present. ## Model Used Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`, Anthropic) via Claude Code — extended thinking, agentic tool use (file edits, vitest/tsc runs).
