📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughAdds a preview-first Codex Marketplace update workflow. The command validates immutable Releases and installation state, supports no-op detection, applies guarded replacements, verifies payload and proof lineage, restores prior state after failures, and reports structured results. ChangesCodex update workflow
Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes Mergeability Score: 🔵 Low · up to The update behavior is mergeable, but the installation documentation can still leave operators uncertain about which checkout is used for restoration and can promise CLI details that are not shown, creating a bounded risk of incorrect recovery expectations or troubleshooting. These documentation issues should receive explicit owner follow-up. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

In `@README.md`:
- Line 12: Update the documented maintainer invocation in README.md to include
the required --harness codex argument alongside --target latest, matching the
validation in scripts/update.ts main. Keep the remaining command and surrounding
documentation unchanged.
In `@scripts/codex-production-update.ts`:
- Around line 249-279: The command execution flow currently applies one
30-second timeout to every operation, causing discovery, fetch, proof, mutation,
and recovery timeouts to be indistinguishable. Update command and
bestEffortNativeJson callers to assign distinct timeout budgets for fetch,
proof, mutation, and recovery operations, and propagate timeout-specific
failures so mutation_state_unknown is only used when mutation outcome is
genuinely unknown.
In `@scripts/update-hosted.test.ts`:
- Around line 32-50: Increase the timeout configured on the affected test
declaration so it exceeds the combined worst-case durations of its two
publicUpdate calls and three jsonCommand calls, using the existing inner budgets
as the basis. Update the corresponding test timeout at the additional referenced
location as well, while leaving publicUpdate and jsonCommand subprocess timeouts
unchanged.
In `@scripts/update.test.ts`:
- Around line 28-37: Set explicit 60_000-millisecond timeouts on the
Bun.spawnSync calls in run and releaseProof, and add the same explicit timeout
to every test declaration that invokes updateFixture or nativeUpdateFixture.
Preserve the existing test behavior while ensuring these long-running Git,
nested-test, and native-install operations use the extended timeout.
In `@scripts/update.ts`:
- Around line 213-218: Update the non-JSON output label in the result-reporting
branch to use result.transactionState, distinguishing a no_op transaction from
an actual update instead of deriving the label from result.mode. Preserve the
existing preview label and output format for all other states.

Declined: #37 requires raw command output, auth-bearing URLs, and private paths to stay out of the update evidence lane. The hosted helper keeps a bounded error to avoid leaking credential- or path-bearing native output. |

Summary
Codex plugin operators can now safely select and apply a newer immutable Marketplace Release without reconstructing a remove-and-reinstall recipe. The command previews by default, binds target and restoration tags to verified commits and payloads, and uses native Codex replacement surfaces only after both Releases pass admission.
bun run update -- --harness codexshows concise help with no arguments and previews the latest stable or an explicitvX.Y.Ztarget.--applypreserves the Marketplace source and supported installed state, verifies ref, checkout, version, path, policy, bytes, and matched functional proof, then restores the prior Release or stops inunknownstate on failure.Validation
