Every persisted config mutation (management API, CLI, and internal writers) is now recorded in the existing config-mutation.sqlite coordinator, atomically with the config write: who changed it (surface + route/command), which fields changed, and redacted before/after values.

What changed

  • saveConfig, saveConfigPreservingClaudeCode, and mutatePersistedConfig accept an optional ConfigMutationSource; all management-API and CLI call sites pass their route/command (e.g. PUT /api/providers, ocx config set), internal writers are labeled internal.
  • Audit rows commit in the same SQLite transaction as the config bytes, so an audit entry can never describe a write that rolled back.
  • GET /api/config/mutations?limit=N returns the trail newest-first (default 100, cap 1000) plus the retention bound.
  • Retention is bounded to the newest 5,000 rows; changed-field paths are capped at 64 and redacted values at 4 KiB per entry.
  • Secrets (apiKey, tokens, headers, credentials) are redacted with the existing redactSecrets machinery; byte-identical saves record nothing.

Verification

  • bun test tests/config-mutation-audit.test.ts — 7 pass (save/mutate/preserve paths, redaction, retention, management API route)
  • bun test on the config/CLI/management/account/routing suites — 233 pass; only pre-existing sandbox Bun.serve(port 0) failures remain in this environment
  • bun run typecheck — clean
  • Rebased on latest upstream/dev (ced9a85c5) before push

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Configuration persistence now records source metadata, changed fields, and redacted before/after snapshots in SQLite. CLI, internal Codex, and management API mutations provide operation details. A management endpoint and tests cover retention, crash recovery, and authentication.

Changes

Configuration mutation auditing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Audit storage and persistence integration
src/config.ts, src/lib/redact.ts
Configuration saves record redacted mutation snapshots atomically. The implementation tracks changed fields, applies retention limits, reconciles pending writes after crashes, and distinguishes unchanged saves.
CLI and internal mutation sources
src/cli/*, src/codex/*
CLI commands and Codex internal operations pass surface and detail metadata to configuration persistence helpers.
Management API mutation sources
src/server/management/*
Management routes annotate configuration writes with API operation details. GET /api/config/mutations returns bounded audit rows and retention metadata.
Audit behavior validation
tests/config-mutation-audit.test.ts, tests/server-management-auth.test.ts
Tests cover snapshots, field tracking, secret redaction, no-op saves, retention, crash recovery, rollback behavior, API retrieval, and authentication.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 82999

This change adds persisted configuration auditing, but the current implementation can misattribute management and CLI changes, expose sensitive field-path data, record incorrect before/after values, and lose audit history after a later failed write; the audit endpoint can also fail instead of honoring its read contract. These correctness, security, and data-integrity risks make the PR unsafe to merge until addressed.

Hi @Wibias / @lidge-jun — this PR needs a maintainer-sponsored label to pass the hygiene gate: the diff touches src/codex/auth-api.ts, src/oauth/login-cli.ts, and src/server/management/oauth-account-routes.ts only to attach a ConfigMutationSource label to already-existing save calls (no authentication or credential logic changes). Happy to adjust the touch surface if you'd prefer the labels dropped from those files instead. The rest of the PR records every persisted config mutation (surface/route, changed fields, redacted before/after) in the existing config-mutation sqlite and exposes GET /api/config/mutations.

리뷰 · 우선순위 48 / 80

설명: 이 PR은 config.json 을 누가, 어떤 경로로, 어떤 필드를 바꿨는지를 기존 config-mutation.sqlite 에 같이 남긴다. 지금 CURRENT dev HEAD는 ced9a85c5 이다. 이 시간에 착지한 것은 문서뿐이다: #2348 WP4, #2349 GO. 현재 HEAD src/config.ts 의 saveConfig / mutatePersistedConfig / saveConfigPreservingClaudeCode 는 바이트를 원자 기록하고 세대 번호를 올리지만, 누가 썼는지는 테이블에 없다. CONFIG_MUTATION_DB_FILENAME 은 이미 config-mutation.sqlite 다. 이 PR은 같은 트랜잭션 안에 config_mutation_audit 테이블을 만들고, surface(cli/api/internal) 와 경로/명령, 필드 목록, 레드액트된 before/after 를 넣는다. 바이트가 같으면 행을 안 남긴다. 보관은 최신 5000행, 필드 64개, 값 4KiB. GET /api/config/mutations 가 최신부터 돌려준다. 관리 API와 CLI 호출부는 경로/명령을 넘긴다. 내부 기록기는 internal 이다. 방향은 운영자가 GUI 수정과 백그라운드 마이그레이션을 구분하게 하려는 것이다. 다만 이 PR은 src/config.ts 를 크게 고친다. types.ts/config.ts 스플릿이 진행 중이면 무효화되기 쉽다. #2350#2355 도 같은 파일을 만진다. 드래프트다. 본문 체크리스트는 4칸이 채워져 있지만 GitHub 는 아직 draft 다. Cursor #2334 는 cursor-pool 모듈+테스트만. #2332 H2 는 discovery 전용. #2320 overflow + #2342 size prior 는 dev. 카탈로그 팁은 Ox Alpha x-preview-f-free + deepseek-v4-flash-vision-exp. package.json 2.27.0. #2188 사이드카는 이미 dev. 설정 감사는 유용하지만 릴리스 GO 직후 같은 파일 충돌 레인에 있어서 48.

src/config.ts recordConfigMutationInCurrentTransaction DELETE OFFSET - 행 제한 숫자를 SQL 문자열에 붙인다. 숫자 변수라도 바인드 플레이스홀더가 더 맞다
src/config.ts redact 임포트 - redactSecretString 과 redactSecrets 를 두 줄로 가져온다. 한 줄로 합친다
src/server/management/config-routes.ts GET /api/config/mutations - 관리 API 인증 뒤에 레드액트된 before/after 를 준다. 로컬 전용인지, 필드 이름에 apiKey 같은 키가 남는지를 보안 리뷰에서 본다
saveConfig / mutatePersistedConfig 시그니처에 ConfigMutationSource - 내부 writer 를 빼먹으면 감사 구멍이 생긴다. 호출부 누락이 없는지 테스트가 잠가야 한다
src/config.ts 대규모 수정 vs types.ts/config.ts 스플릿 - 스플릿이 먼저 착지하면 이 PR은 리베이스하지 말고 닫고 다시 연다

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

  • 감사 API를 루프백 로컬 관리 읽기 허용 목록에 넣을지, GUI 세션만 볼지
  • #2355 divergence 경고와 같은 설정 관측 레인으로 묶을지, 따로 둘지
  • 내부 자동 저장을 전부 internal 로 남기면 행이 빨리 찬다. 사람 손 경로만 남길지

너의 추천
드래프트를 유지한다. 게이트가 레디로 뒤집힌 뒤에만 본다. #2350 스키마 한 줄, #2355 SHA 경고와 한 커밋으로 섞지 않는다. config.ts 를 세 PR이 동시에 만지니 머지 순서를 정한다. SQL OFFSET 보간을 바인드로 바꾸고 redact 임포트를 한 줄로 만든다. types.ts/config.ts 스플릿이 saveConfig 를 이미 옮긴 뒤에야 충돌이 보이면 리베이스하지 말고 닫고 다시 연다. 지금은 그 정도 아님. 라벨은 그대로 둔다. 프리뷰 배포가 아니다.

Resolved the hygiene gate without maintainer sponsorship: dropped the ConfigMutationSource labels from the three auth-surface files (those writers now default to internal), bound the retention OFFSET as a SQL bind, and merged the redact imports into one line (b922ec0). Hygiene + enforce-target are green and the PR is ready for review.

3556-3572: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Same snapshot mismatch, duplicated across both branches. Extract one helper.

Lines 3562 and 3569 snapshot persistedConfig and projectedConfig respectively, not the object that persistConfigUnlocked serialized. The disk-only-provider mismatch described on Lines 3076-3079 applies to both branches.

The persist-bump-snapshot-record block now appears four times in this file (Lines 3076-3080, Lines 3167-3171, Lines 3560-3564, Lines 3567-3571). Four copies means the fix above must be applied identically four times, and a future change to the audit contract can drift between them. Extract one helper and call it from every persist path.

♻️ Proposed helper
+/** Persist under the open mutation transaction and record one audit row for a changed write. */
+function persistAndRecordConfigMutation(
+  candidate: OcxConfig,
+  beforeRaw: unknown,
+  source: ConfigMutationSource,
+): boolean {
+  const written = persistConfigUnlocked(candidate);
+  if (!written.changed) return false;
+  bumpGenerationForCooperatingConfigWrite();
+  const snapshot = buildConfigMutationSnapshot(beforeRaw, written.persisted);
+  recordConfigMutationInCurrentTransaction(source, snapshot.fields, snapshot.before, snapshot.after);
+  return true;
+}

Then both branches here collapse:

     if (persistedBinding) {
       const persistedConfig: OcxConfig = { ...projectedConfig, port: persistedBinding.port };
       if (persistedBinding.hostname === undefined) delete persistedConfig.hostname;
       else persistedConfig.hostname = persistedBinding.hostname;
-      if (persistConfigUnlocked(persistedConfig)) {
-        bumpGenerationForCooperatingConfigWrite();
-        const snapshot = buildConfigMutationSnapshot(onDisk, persistedConfig);
-        recordConfigMutationInCurrentTransaction(source, snapshot.fields, snapshot.before, snapshot.after);
-      }
+      persistAndRecordConfigMutation(persistedConfig, onDisk, source);
       persistedLiveServerBinding.set(config, persistedBinding);
     } else {
-      if (persistConfigUnlocked(projectedConfig)) {
-        bumpGenerationForCooperatingConfigWrite();
-        const snapshot = buildConfigMutationSnapshot(onDisk, projectedConfig);
-        recordConfigMutationInCurrentTransaction(source, snapshot.fields, snapshot.before, snapshot.after);
-      }
+      persistAndRecordConfigMutation(projectedConfig, onDisk, source);
     }

- Line 120: Update setIntegrationEnabled to accept an optional
ConfigMutationSource parameter defaulting to the current source, and use it when
recording the mutation. Pass the appropriate API metadata from management routes
and CLI metadata from the claude-desktop entry point to preserve the caller’s
mutation source.

In `@src/config.ts`:
- Around line 3067-3080: Change persistConfigUnlocked to return the serialized
config it writes, then build audit snapshots from that persisted object rather
than the pre-merge candidate. Apply this at src/config.ts lines 3067-3080 and
3167-3171, and at lines 3556-3572 for both branches; consolidate the duplicated
persist, generation-bump, snapshot, and recording logic into a shared helper.
- Around line 2931-2941: Update buildConfigMutationSnapshot to redact every path
segment when constructing the stored fields display paths, while keeping
unredacted segments for extractConfigValueAtPath lookups. Reuse the existing
redactSecretString helper so caller-controlled provider names and other
secret-shaped keys are sanitized before fields is returned.
- Around line 2835-2843: Update readConfigMutationAudit so
configMutationDatabasePath is not used for read-only resolution, since it
creates and hardens the directory and can throw before the try block. Reuse or
add a side-effect-free path resolver for the audit database, keep path
resolution and database access within the method’s existing error-handling
contract, and ensure missing or inaccessible database/table state returns an
empty trail without creating or modifying directories.
- Around line 2874-2908: Update collectConfigDiffPaths and its callers to carry
the original path segments alongside the dotted display string, then pass those
segments to extractConfigValueAtPath instead of splitting the joined path on
periods. Preserve the persisted fields shape and existing root/depth behavior,
while allowing dotted keys such as provider names and model entries to resolve
their before and after values correctly.

providers.<name>.apiKey, apiKeyPool, and oauthClientSecret, before jsonResponse;
add tests covering these keys.

In `@src/server/management/native-integration-routes.ts`:

and propagate a ConfigMutationSource instead of hard-coding internal metadata.
Pass route-specific API metadata from the management routes, including the
Claude persist call and the corresponding routes around setIntegrationEnabled,
so all resulting audit rows identify their API origin.

In `@tests/config-mutation-audit.test.ts`:
- Around line 49-59: Add a regression test near the existing saveConfig audit
test that mutates persisted configuration with a token-shaped provider name,
then assert the committed audit row’s fields do not contain that raw provider
key. Use the existing configWithProvider, mutatePersistedConfig, and
readConfigMutationAudit helpers, and preserve the expected API mutation
metadata.
- Around line 85-95: Extend the configuration mutation audit tests with a
regression case for a provider added directly to config.json: import
readFileSync and writeFileSync, modify the on-disk providers before calling
saveConfig, then verify the audit does not report that provider as deleted and
it remains persisted. Place the test near the existing
saveConfigPreservingClaudeCode test and cover the disk-only-provider merge path.
- Around line 103-107: Replace the JSON substring assertions in the test around
rows with typed, field-level assertions on the parsed row values, verifying that
port 10104 is present and port 10100 is absent without inspecting createdAt or
other serialized fields.
- Around line 122-135: Add a server-boundary authorization test in the existing
server management auth test suite that requests GET /api/config/mutations
without credentials and asserts 401, then repeats the request with the
management token and asserts 200. Keep the existing audit-trail test focused on
ordering and retention, and do not alter its direct dispatcher setup.

Addressed all 13 CodeRabbit findings in c3450d5:

  1. ocx config set/unset now record distinct details via the action value.
  2. setIntegrationEnabled and the Codex/Grok/Claude wrappers accept a ConfigMutationSource; management routes and CLI entries now pass their route/command.
  3. readConfigMutationAudit resolves the database path with a side-effect-free helper (no mkdir/chmod/ACL) and returns an empty trail on any error.
  4. Diff paths now carry segment arrays, so dotted provider/model keys resolve their before/after values instead of nulling them.
  5. Every path segment is redacted before it is persisted and echoed by the API.
  6. persistConfigUnlocked returns the exact persisted document; snapshots (all three sites, collapsed into one helper) compare what was actually written, so disk-only providers are never reported as deleted.
  7. Agent-settings sources now identify the real mutation (POST /api/claude-desktop/apply, PUT /api/subagent-model-fallback); auto-apply fingerprints are recorded as internal.
  8. GET /api/config/mutations is gated to admin-token/gui-session principals (401 anonymous, 403 capability principals).
  9. apiKeyPool and oauthClientSecret join the sensitive-key matcher.
  10. Regression tests: secret-shaped provider names, dotted keys, credential leaves, disk-only preservation, typed retention assertions, anonymous/unauthorized route rejection, and a real-server 401/200 boundary test.

12 audit tests + 111 related tests pass; typecheck clean.

Annotate the remaining management API writer.

The new default records omitted sources as internal. src/server/management/agent-settings-routes.ts Line 1318 calls saveConfigPreservingClaudeCode(config) from PUT /api/claude-code, so that API mutation is recorded with detail: "saveConfigPreservingClaudeCode" instead of its route.

Pass { surface: "api", detail: "PUT /api/claude-code" } at that call site.

3260-3278: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Do not overwrite a reconciled marker before its replay commits.

At Line 3272, a new save replaces the only pending marker even when Lines 2771-2773 have replayed an older marker in the current uncommitted transaction.

For example, a crash leaves config.json at C1 with marker P1. The next save inserts the P1 audit row, then overwrites P1 with P2 before writing C2. If the C2 write fails, the transaction rolls back the C1 audit row. The remaining P2 hash does not match C1, so later reconciliation drops it. The persisted C1 mutation then has no audit row.

Commit recovered markers in a separate reconciliation transaction before starting a new config mutation, or use a durable ordered marker journal. Add a regression test that forces a config write failure after reconciliation and verifies that the original marker still replays.

As per path instructions: “A behavior change in src/ should come with a focused regression test near the existing tests for that subsystem.”

Blocker: the audit store persists a live data-plane secret

Good news first — the durability defect I reported is closed. withConfigMutationLockSync now commits a recovered marker in its own transaction and deletes it before the new mutation begins, so a rollback can no longer strand a P2 hash against a C1 document.

The blocker is a new one, and it is the kind an audit feature especially cannot ship with: apiKeys[].key is written to the audit store and echoed by GET /api/config/mutations in plaintext.

Reproduced on this head:

redactSecrets({ apiKeys: [{ id, name, key: "ocx_data_SECRETVALUE123", createdAt }] })
  -> apiKeys[0].key === "ocx_data_SECRETVALUE123"      // unchanged
  -> control: apiKey -> "[REDACTED]"

The cause is that redaction keys off the last path segment, and the sensitive-key pattern is anchored. api_key matches; bare key does not. And collectConfigDiffPaths stops at the apiKeys array, so the whole entry is snapshotted with the secret intact.

OcxApiKeyEntry.key (src/types/config.ts:220) is the data-plane admission secret, and the type's own contract is that it never leaves the server except in the one-time POST /api/keys response. Any POST /api/keys now writes it into config-mutation.sqlite, where it persists and is readable through the mutations endpoint. The principal gate on that route is real, so this is not remotely reachable — but a durable plaintext copy of the admission secret is a materially worse posture than before the feature existed.

Fix

Redact nested secrets inside the extracted subtree rather than only the leaf name: treat any OcxApiKeyEntry-shaped object (or the whole apiKeys subtree) as sensitive before persisting. Then add a regression that fails if a raw ocx_data_ value appears in a committed row — a leaf-name test cannot catch this class.

Two smaller items

The durability test does not actually cover the defect it was added for. Reverting the reconciliation-transaction hunk leaves tests/config-mutation-audit.test.ts at 17 pass / 0 fail, because the test throws in the mutate callback before persistConfigUnlocked writes a new marker, so P2 never replaces P1. To make it load-bearing: fail the config.json rename after writePendingConfigMutationAudit, then assert the recovered C1 row survives and its marker was not replaced.

PUT /api/claude-code (src/server/management/agent-settings-routes.ts:1318) still saves with the default { surface: "internal" }, so an audit reader cannot distinguish a GUI persist from a background writer. Its neighbours in this PR pass route details.

Everything else I re-checked at this head is closed: distinct ocx config <action> labels, propagated ConfigMutationSource, side-effect-free audit reads, segment-array diffs, exact-document snapshots, the principal gate on the GET, and the write-ahead marker with post-commit delete.

Leaving open — the feature is worth having, and the remaining work is well-defined.

…fects

lidge-jun#2310 merged after every recorded blocker was confirmed closed at its current
head; the earlier objections were against a different implementation.

The three holds share a pattern worth recording: each PR does something its
own description denies, and each one's tests pass either way.

  lidge-jun#2350 says it annotates empty tool outputs. Its Responses emptiness check
  classifies any non-text part as empty, so a real input_image or
  encrypted_content payload is replaced with the annotation. The Chat half of
  the same PR guards correctly.

  lidge-jun#2351 says it never records a secret. Redaction keys off the last path
  segment and the sensitive-key pattern is anchored, so api_key matches but
  bare key does not - and apiKeys[].key is the data-plane admission secret.
  It lands verbatim in config-mutation.sqlite.

  lidge-jun#2355 says it warns while the proxy serves stale config. residentConfigSha256
  is a module global reassigned on every loadConfig(), so an incidental reload
  from catalog sync or a token refresh clears the warning while the old
  snapshot is still being served.

All three were reproduced before being posted. That is the argument for
reverting a hunk and re-running rather than trusting a green check.

Hi @lidge-jun — after the rebase the hygiene gate re-blocked this PR on unsponsored_surface (src/server/management/oauth-account-routes.ts). The touches there are source labels only (POST/PATCH/DELETE /api/keys, PUT /api/oauth/accounts/pool) so the audit trail attributes key lifecycle changes; no auth or credential logic changed. Could you apply maintainer-sponsored when you get a chance?

The current head closes the plaintext apiKeys[].key leak from the previous review. I verified the focused audit and management-auth suites at 51/51 with pinned Bun 1.4.0, typecheck passes, and the pending marker / API response tests now cover degraded apiKeys rows as well. I did not run a repository security scan.

I am still requesting changes before this architectural feature lands:

  1. Do not add the entire audit subsystem to src/config.ts. This PR adds roughly 490 lines there for the SQLite schema, retention, pending-marker protocol, crash recovery, redaction/diff snapshots, and read API. Those are a cohesive durable-state boundary with independent invariants. Extract them into a config mutation-audit/coordinator leaf that does not import src/config.ts; pass the resolved paths and atomic-write/lock dependencies in from config.ts so the save orchestration stays in config.ts without creating a cycle. Keep the existing public save signatures stable.
  2. Add the required architecture and user documentation. structure/02_config-and-codex-home.md should record a Decision Log for the SQLite plus write-ahead-marker design, ordering guarantees, recovery cases, retention, file permissions, and why the audit transaction shares the config mutation lock. Public docs should describe GET /api/config/mutations, the 100/default and 1000/max read bounds, 5000-row retention, newest-first order, redacted/truncated values, and that no raw credential or request content is stored.
  3. Add a module-boundary regression so the new leaf cannot grow imports back into config/routing/server code. The pure diff/redaction tests should target that leaf directly; config integration tests should only prove save/recovery wiring.

The PR head is 22 dev commits behind. After the extraction and docs, rebase the actual branch and run exact-head cross-platform CI. Because this changes secret redaction and durable config state, it still needs independent security-boundary review before merge.
