Summary

Auto-assign on the omo tab (POST /api/codex-agent-roles/auto-assign, ocx agent roles suggest) proposed a reasoning effort only for roles whose file already set model_reasoning_effort. A role without one got a model and no effort, so applying the proposal left it on Codex's default effort even though the sizing had picked a level. Every sized role now gets an effort on the picked model's ladder, the same way the Subagents page's delegation suggestion already does.

Change

  • src/codex/role-auto-assign.ts: always maps the sized effort onto the picked model's reasoning ladder; the alwaysProposeEffort switch that separated the role path from the delegation path is removed.
  • src/server/management/codex-role-auto-assign.ts: drops the switch from its call.
  • ocx agent roles details, the generated skill surface and structure/subagents.md say --apply writes each proposed model and effort.

Verification

  • Final local head: f9eff674569409cd0a44b0296ce10d7f9fdfba14; contains dev 7af092ca4f78828238b425bf351d5989e237f89f via a non-force merge.
  • bun test tests/routing/codex-role-auto-assign.test.ts tests/server/codex-role-auto-assign-routes.test.ts tests/routing/codex-role-sizing.test.ts: 29 pass, 0 fail. bun test tests/codex-integration/injection-model-suggest-routes.test.ts: 9 pass, 0 fail.
  • bun run typecheck, bun run structure:check, bun run skill:surface:check: exit 0. Layout/tooling/ratchet/Lab guards: 53 pass, 0 fail.
  • OCX_TEST_NO_QUEUE=1 bun run test:changed: 8,752 pass, 32 skip, 5 fail across 371 files. The five unchanged CLI lifecycle notice tests timed out at 5s under concurrent lane load. Their isolated PR-head group passed (36 pass); the same group plus realtime shutdown passed on unchanged dev (37 pass). This broader run is not claimed green.
  • Full bun run test was omitted under the AGENTS.md shared-resource exception: five lanes share this machine. Focused behavior and owning guards were run; hosted cross-platform CI is deferred by the owner to the final integrated dev tip.
  • Fresh independent Sol review at this exact SHA: PASS, no P0–P2 findings; reviewer also ran role proposal/API/injection tests (28 pass, 0 fail). Suggestions remain previews and write only after explicit application.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.

Walkthrough

Sized roles now receive proposed effort mapped to the selected model’s effort ladder, even when no effort is set. Delegation behavior and suggest --apply descriptions reflect this change.

Changes

Role effort proposals

Layer / File(s) Summary
Generate effort proposals
src/codex/role-auto-assign.ts, tests/codex-integration/injection-model-suggest-routes.test.ts, tests/routing/codex-role-auto-assign.test.ts
buildRoleProposals no longer accepts alwaysProposeEffort. For sized roles with a selected model, it maps the sized effort to the model’s ladder. If the model has no effort ladder, the proposed effort remains null. Tests cover roles with and without existing model or effort settings.
Align delegation and apply descriptions
src/server/management/codex-role-auto-assign.ts, tests/server/codex-role-auto-assign-routes.test.ts, src/cli/capabilities-base.ts, skills/ocx/references/01_surface_agents-routing.md, structure/subagents.md
Delegation uses the default proposal behavior, and its route test expects xhigh for the worker. The CLI and skill declarations say suggest --apply writes each proposed model and effort. The delegation documentation says suggestions include effort even when none is set.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Change: Feature












Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to f9eff

Role auto-assignment applies mapped effort when available and leaves it out when the selected model has no effort ladder. No concrete merge-blocking risk remains.

Thanks. Role-mapping contract in structure/subagents.md: reproduced, the paragraph still limited role effort proposals to files that already set model_reasoning_effort. Fixed in 84f45ad: it now says every sized role gets an effort when the chosen model has a non-empty ladder, and none when the ladder is empty. bun run structure:check passes.

Scoped review update at 8b8dfc0: I read the complete eight-file diff against current dev f189b33. The proposal change maps sizing intent onto the selected model's ladder even when the role has no prior effort; explicit empty ladders still produce null, and unsized/unassigned handling is unchanged. The delegation caller already requested this behavior before this change.

The exact-head Catalog async contracts run 38101877920 has now completed successfully: Linux, macOS and Windows each report 14 passed, 0 failed, 0 ignored. This supersedes the historical 13-case run on 84f45ad; the added native contract target arrived with the rebase. These Catalog checks do not by themselves exercise the role proposal HTTP/apply behavior.

I prepared an exact-head isolated worktree to run the three changed role/delegation regression files, but the global serial-workload gate deferred execution before Bun started because another project's build became active. Exit 75 is not a test failure or a pass. Broader Cross-platform CI is still approval-pending, and I have not run root typecheck/full-suite validation or approved this PR. No security/privacy scan or provider/native-account call was started.

Independent local verification update — 2026-10-11

The previously deferred role behavior checks have now executed at unchanged production head 8b8dfc0ad9e16e696f8c81528ce7a44193e4e12a:

bun test --no-env-file --isolate ./tests/routing/codex-role-auto-assign.test.ts ./tests/server/codex-role-auto-assign-routes.test.ts ./tests/codex-integration/injection-model-suggest-routes.test.ts --timeout 10000

Bun1.4.0: 28 passed / 0 failed / 148 assertions across3 files, 2.28 seconds. This covers pinned and unpinned sized roles, explicit empty ladders, defaults, unsized/unassigned cases, API no-write refusals, offered/savable delegation effort and fixture discovery cleanup. Sizing/catalog/runtime discovery used injected synthetic seams; no live model/provider/native process was used. Production files unchanged.

The serial run used fresh private homes, effective CPU75%/memoryHigh1280MiB/max1536MiB/swap0/tasks64/nice10, finite120-second ceiling, with in-unit foreign-build admission. IOWeight20 is configured but no delegated io controller exists, so effective I/O weighting is unverified. Protected user configuration remained unchanged. This completes my previously deferred three-file scope only; root typecheck, full suite, union validation with #6907/#6909 and remaining exact-head CI/review gates are not supplied by these results. No approval, merge or scan.

A role whose file sets no model_reasoning_effort got a model and no effort, so applying the proposal
left the effort to Codex's default even though the sizing had chosen one. Roles now always get the
sized effort on the picked model's ladder, as the delegation suggestion already did, and the
alwaysProposeEffort switch that told the two apart is gone.
…el has a ladder

- structure/subagents.md still limited role effort proposals to files that already set model_reasoning_effort
