## Thinking Path
> - Paperclip is an open source platform for managing AI agent teams,
with adapter packages providing concrete runtime environments (e.g.
`codex-local` runs a local OpenAI Codex sandbox)
> - `adapter-utils` is the shared utilities package — it should hold
only generic, adapter-agnostic primitives (sandbox lifecycle helpers,
merge logic, type definitions) usable by every adapter
> - Three files lived in `adapter-utils/src/` that are entirely
Codex-specific: `codex-auth-merge-extract.sh` (shell script that
extracts auth tokens), `codex-auth-merge-decision.cjs` (CJS decision
helper), and `codex-auth-merge-scripts.ts` (TypeScript factory that
wires them into the inbound provision seam added in PR #9778)
> - Their presence in a "generic" package violates the adapter isolation
principle and requires a cross-package build step to copy `.sh`/`.cjs`
files into `codex-local/dist/server/` at build time
> - This PR completes Phase 2 of the inbound-seam refactor: move all
three files to `packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/`, rebase the
TypeScript imports, update `execute.ts` to import locally, move the
Codex-auth tests into a new `codex-local` test file, and fix packaging
so `codex-local` copies its own scripts to `dist/server/`
> - Script bytes are identical after the move; no change to inbound
auth-merge behavior or to which bytes cross the sandbox boundary
> - The benefit is a clean ownership boundary: `adapter-utils` retains
only generic runtime code, and the structural "Codex-free core" test in
the adapter-utils suite validates this invariant going forward
## Linked Issues or Issue Description
No pre-existing public GitHub issue. Describing the underlying problem
inline:
**Problem:** `packages/adapter-utils/src/` contains three files
(`codex-auth-merge-extract.sh`, `codex-auth-merge-decision.cjs`,
`codex-auth-merge-scripts.ts`) consumed exclusively by the `codex-local`
adapter. Their presence in a generic utilities package violates adapter
isolation and requires a cross-package build step (copy `.sh`/`.cjs`
into `codex-local/dist/server/`). The inbound provision seam landed in
PR #9778 routed these through `adapter-utils`; this PR finishes the
relocation.
**Related:** Refs #9778 (Phase 1 — generic asset-lifecycle-seam, now
merged).
## What Changed
- Moved `codex-auth-merge-extract.sh`, `codex-auth-merge-decision.cjs`,
and `codex-auth-merge-scripts.ts` from `packages/adapter-utils/src/` →
`packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/` (script bytes are unchanged;
`codex-auth-merge-scripts.ts` imports rebased to `adapter-utils`
subpaths for `shellQuote` and `SandboxManagedRuntimeAssetProvision`)
- `packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/execute.ts`: updated import
of `buildCodexAuthInboundProvision` from `adapter-utils` → local
`./codex-auth-merge-scripts`
- New
`packages/adapters/codex-local/src/server/codex-auth-merge.test.ts` — 5
Codex-auth test rows extracted from
`adapter-utils/src/workspace-restore-merge.test.ts`; the generic test
file stays and no longer references Codex
- `packages/adapters/codex-local/package.json`: build now copies
`.sh`/`.cjs` from `src/server/` into `dist/server/` directly
- `packages/adapter-utils/package.json`: removed the now-obsolete
cross-package copy step for those files
## Verification
```sh
# Type-check both affected packages
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils --filter @paperclipai/adapter-codex-local typecheck
# Codex auth-merge suite (moved tests — 5/5 pass)
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-codex-local test -- --reporter=verbose codex-auth-merge
# Full adapter-utils suite including the structural "core free of Codex literals" test (243 passed, 4 pre-existing skips)
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-utils test
# Confirm build copies scripts to dist/server
pnpm --filter @paperclipai/adapter-codex-local build
ls packages/adapters/codex-local/dist/server/*.sh packages/adapters/codex-local/dist/server/*.cjs
```
All of the above were run locally and passed before this PR was opened.
## Risks
Low risk — pure file relocation:
- No change to `.sh` or `.cjs` script bytes; the same content reaches
the sandbox boundary as before
- No behavioral change to inbound auth-merge logic from the sandbox's
perspective
- `adapter-utils`' structural "core free of Codex literals" test now
validates that the relocation is complete and will catch any regression
- Only `codex-local` consumed these files from `adapter-utils`; no other
package in the monorepo imported them from there
