Summary
buzz-acp has no first-class way to enable Codex's Approve for me
behavior (Codex Auto-review). Codex Auto-review is distinct from Claude
Code's ACP mode named auto: it keeps Codex's interactive approval policy
and sandbox boundary, but routes eligible approval requests to Codex's
automatic reviewer with:
approvals_reviewer = "auto_review"
Current behavior
The current @agentclientprotocol/codex-acp adapter advertises only the ACP
session modes read-only, agent, and agent-full-access. It does not
advertise a mode whose ID is auto.
Buzz only sends a configured PermissionMode when the adapter advertises the
same mode ID, so the auto support added for Claude Code does not reach
Codex. Buzz then falls back to answering ACP permission requests with
allow_once, which is automatic allowance rather than Codex Auto-review.
Proposed fix
Add an explicit Codex reviewer option to buzz-acp, exposed through:
--codex-approvals-reviewer auto-review
BUZZ_ACP_CODEX_APPROVALS_REVIEWER=auto_review
For Codex agents, merge the selected reviewer into the generated
CODEX_CONFIG passed to @agentclientprotocol/codex-acp, while preserving
the existing generated network configuration and parent/persona merge
contract. Non-Codex agents must remain unchanged.
Acceptance criteria
auto-review and auto_review select Codex's auto_review reviewer.user can explicitly restore manual review.- Omitting the option preserves current behavior and generated JSON.
- The setting is only injected for
codex / codex-acp.
- Existing
CODEX_CONFIG keys and the generated relay network setting
survive the merge.
- Unit tests cover parsing, Codex/non-Codex routing, generated JSON, and
parent/persona merge precedence.
