## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work
> - A planning task runs a native Codex agent in read-only planning mode
before the user approves a Plan
> - On a Daytona sandbox, every Codex planning run failed before its
first turn: `error creating thread: failed to load AGENTS.md
instructions for environment 'local': fs sandbox helper failed ...
bwrap: loopback: Failed RTM_NEWADDR: Operation not permitted`
> - Codex 0.160.0 reads files through a filesystem helper when the
permission profile restricts reads. That helper always runs bubblewrap
with `--unshare-net`. Daytona has no `CAP_NET_ADMIN`, so bubblewrap
cannot bring up loopback in the new network namespace
> - The planning profile must stay read-only. Codex's plan collaboration
mode is only a prompt, so the external-sandbox profile (#20808 tried it,
then reverted it) would let planning runs write files
> - This pull request keeps the read-only profile, but inside an
external sandbox it gives the profile full-disk read, no writes and
network. Codex then reads files directly and runs commands without a new
network namespace, and it still refuses writes
> - The benefit is that Codex planning works on Daytona and stays
read-only

**What happened?**
A Codex planning task on a Daytona execution environment failed at
startup. The run ended with `provider_session_open_rejected` and the
Codex message `bwrap: loopback: Failed RTM_NEWADDR: Operation not
permitted`. Standard and ask runs on the same sandbox worked.
**Expected behavior**
A planning run on Daytona starts, writes its Plan and asks for approval.
Codex must still refuse file writes and mutating commands during
planning.
**Steps to reproduce**
1. Configure a native Codex agent with a Daytona execution environment.
2. Create a task in planning mode.
3. The first run fails before its first turn with the bubblewrap
loopback error.
## What Changed
- `createIsolatedCodexAppServerArgs`: when
`PAPERCLIP_RUNNER_EXTERNAL_SANDBOX=1`, the
`paperclip-runner-workspace-read-only` profile is now `{":root"="read"}`
(plus the brokered `GH_CONFIG_DIR` write that planning already had). Its
network still follows `PAPERCLIP_RUNNER_NETWORK_ACCESS`. It has no deny
entries, so Codex 0.160.0 treats it as full-disk read and skips its
filesystem helper, which always unshares the network. Local and SSH
planning keep the narrower profile unchanged.
- The Codex session context now records `rootAccess` `read` (planning)
or `write` (default) in an external sandbox, instead of always `none`.
- The Runner still sends `permissions:
"paperclip-runner-workspace-read-only"` and the plan collaboration mode
on `thread/start` and `turn/start` for planning. A new Rust test pins
that for an externally sandboxed read-only launch (no `sandbox:
danger-full-access`, no `externalSandbox` `sandboxPolicy`).
- A new Rust test proves that a launch saved with the previous planning
profile rules has the same stable launch identity as a launch with the
new rules, so saved sessions carry forward.
- New manual Product E2E suite `codex-planning-read-only`
(`runner-codex` on local and Daytona). The planning turn runs one shell
write, writes a Plan whose first line records the outcome, asks for
approval, and finishes after approval. A grader reads the run events and
fails if no write attempt was seen or if any write succeeded.
- `docs/codex-driver.md` describes the external-sandbox planning
profile, why it avoids the helper, and its read scope.
## Verification
- Red on Daytona, master `123ee31552`: [run
43029207500](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/43029207500),
cell `core-compatibility.runner-codex.daytona.plan-revise-accept` failed
twice with `error creating thread: failed to load AGENTS.md instructions
for environment 'local': fs sandbox helper failed with status exit
status: 1: bwrap: loopback: Failed RTM_NEWADDR: Operation not
permitted`.
- Planning turn completes on Daytona: [run
43031462803](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/43031462803),
cell `core-compatibility.runner-codex.daytona.plan-revise-accept`. The
planning run succeeded, saved a two-step Plan with the draft marker and
opened a confirmation for that revision (all API checks passed). The
cell then failed a later browser check: the Plan preview rendered as the
`task-chat-plan-preview-fallback` card, which the harness does not
accept. That is a separate UI placement gap.
- Write attempt on Daytona: [run
43038547892](https://github.com/paperclipai/paperclip/actions/runs/43038547892),
cell `codex-planning-read-only.runner-codex.daytona.plan-write-refused`
on `f30aeb3e72`. The planning run succeeded and ran the shell write
`printf probe > plan-write-probe-....txt || echo WRITE_REFUSED`. It
ended `failed` with exit 1 and no file, because bubblewrap could not
start the command (`bwrap: setting up uid map: Permission denied`). The
write was refused fail-closed by the sandbox launcher, not by a
read-only filesystem error. The stricter grader in a3d43b7bfd reports
this case as 'sandbox failed to start' rather than a pass. Shell
commands in Daytona planning therefore do not run on the current image;
the driver doc records this as a remaining gap.
- Red/green unit test: `npx vitest run
src/drivers/codex/codex-security-config.test.ts` (in
`packages/paperclip-runner`). The new test failed on the unfixed code
(the profile was `":root"="none"` with `CODEX_HOME` denied and network
off) and passes with the fix.
- `cargo test --locked -p paperclip-runner-core --test codex_provider --
external_sandbox` and `cargo test --locked -p paperclip-runner-core
--lib -- external_sandbox_planning_profile_rules
runtime_launch_rebinding`: pass.
- `npx vitest run --config tests/runner-e2e/vitest.config.ts
tests/runner-e2e/codex-planning-read-only.test.ts
tests/runner-e2e/catalog.test.ts`: pass. `pnpm
test:e2e:runner:typecheck`: pass.
- Real Codex 0.160.0 app-server probe (macOS) with the generated launch
arguments and `PAPERCLIP_RUNNER_EXTERNAL_SANDBOX=1`: `thread/start`
returned sandbox `{"type":"readOnly","networkAccess":true}` and loaded
the workspace `AGENTS.md`; `command/exec` with the planning profile
refused `printf x > plan-write-probe.txt` (exit 1, `Operation not
permitted`, no file) and allowed `cat AGENTS.md`. Trace logs showed 0
filesystem-helper invocations with the new profile and 336 with the
previous restricted profile.
- Codex 0.160.0 source: `exec-server/src/fs_sandbox.rs` always sets
`NetworkSandboxPolicy::Restricted` for the helper,
`core/src/agents_md.rs` uses the helper only without full-disk read, and
`linux-sandbox` adds `--unshare-net` only for a restricted or proxy-only
network.
## Risks
- Inside an external sandbox, planning commands can now read the whole
sandbox filesystem, including the isolated Codex home. Default-mode
turns in the same sandbox already have full read and write access, so
this does not widen what the sandbox exposes. Local and SSH planning are
unchanged.
- Inside an external sandbox, planning shell commands fail closed on the
current Daytona image because bubblewrap cannot map user IDs there.
Planning still reads files and writes the Plan through Codex and
Paperclip tools.
- If a future Codex release adds deny-read entries or makes the helper
mandatory, planning on Daytona could fail again. The new Daytona E2E
suite detects that.
- Upgrade safety: the profile filesystem and network keys are excluded
from the stable launch identity, so saved sessions resume with the new
rules (new Rust regression). No persisted schema, pack contract or ACPX
profile changes.
