The app-server path grants networkAccess for Auto and withholds it for Edit. The exec path set no network configuration, so the same Permission produced a different capability depending on whether approvals happened to be enabled for that run. codex exec has no network flag, so the documented sandbox_workspace_write.network_access override carries it. Edit stays gated, which is what keeps its approvals meaningful.

Permission::Automeant two different things depending on which Codex transport a run happened to take.The app-server path sets
networkAccess: truefor Auto andfalsefor Edit. Thecodex execpath set no network configuration at all, so a caller asking for Auto received the Edit posture whenever approvals were off. One posture, two capabilities, selected by an unrelated flag.codex exechas no network flag, so the fix carries the documented[sandbox_workspace_write] network_accesskey through-c, which is the same lever the CLI's own help points at. Edit stays gated, which is what keeps its approvals meaningful.Found while reviewing the Codex integration for
agencyzero, where the symptom is a run that can or cannot reach the network depending on a setting nobody associated with the network.Verification
cargo test --lib: 201 passed, including a new test pinning the two transports to the same answer.cargo fmt --checkandcargo clippy --all-targets: clean.
