Summary

The compatibility manifest could only say that a route keeps a custom tool; it could not say whether the tool's grammar survives. On the canonical Codex forward route both survive, but on a routed Responses destination that rejects native custom tools, OpenCodex lowers the tool to a string-input function and the grammar is dropped. This PR records that difference as evidence, per the implementation path in the #2358 maintainer comment.

  • Forward route (openai / gpt-5.6-sol): new request.custom_tools.grammar passthrough claim, backed by an assertion on the full format including a real Lark definition. Manifest version 1.4.0.
  • New subject: key-auth OpenGateway, z-ai/glm-5.3-flash-ultrafast on the Responses wire (supportsResponsesCustomTools: false). Custom tools are translated (string input function), grammar is degraded (format removed), and custom_tool_call / custom_tool_call_output history is translated to function_call / function_call_output. The fixture sends the same grammar as the forward fixture, so the route is the only difference.
  • Evidence gate in tests/codex-integration/compatibility-manifest.test.ts: each fixture runs against the production adapter for its own manifest subject; every subject's route is pinned (registry base URL, auth kind, per-model wire default); every cited assertion id must exist in the owning fixture; and a passthrough claim may only cite equals assertions, on a selector bound to that feature, whose expected value is the caller's own input at the same place (grammar evidence must include a non-empty definition). Grammar loss therefore cannot be labeled lossless.

No runtime behavior changes. Manifests remain passive data and the import-graph guard still shows the request/startup path does not load them. structure/adapters/compatibility-contracts.md and the contributing guide (English plus the ja, ko, ru and zh-cn translations) describe the two validation layers and the new rule.

This delivers only the evidence slice of the umbrella RFC; ocx compatibility explain, other providers, and the OS-keychain work stay open.

Refs #2358

Verification

  • bun test tests/codex-integration/compatibility-manifest.test.ts: 13 pass, 0 fail (110 expects).
  • Red run, recorded and then reverted: setting the real OpenGateway grammar claim to passthrough without a limitation failed the evidence gate with both coherence issues (... must be an equals assertion, ... expects a value that differs from the caller input). Permanent negative tests cover absence-as-lossless, a rewritten value, evidence on an unrelated preserved field (/body/model) or /url, a grammar without a definition, a selector with no caller input, an unbound passthrough feature, a dangling assertion id, and a deleted assertion.
  • Review findings: Codex P2 (evidence not bound to the claimed feature) and CodeRabbit (localized contributing guides) are fixed in 9e116bd39a and 2b2893987d, and both threads are resolved.
  • Independent reviewer: FAIL on the first head (evidence not bound to the claimed feature), fixed in 9e116bd39a, then PASS on the interdiff.
  • Pinned runner Bun 1.4.3: bun test tests/test-layout.test.ts tests/test-layout-tooling.test.ts tests/ci-workflows/file-size-ratchet.test.ts tests/codex-integration/compatibility-manifest.test.ts tests/lab/core-lab-boundary.test.ts tests/ci-workflows/structure-ssot.test.ts: 123 pass, 0 fail.
  • bun run typecheck, bun run structure:check, bun run privacy:scan: exit 0.
  • Full bun run test (pinned Bun 1.4.3, local macOS, 11 concurrent lanes on this machine): 48940 pass / 120 skip / 2 fail across 2447 files. Both failures reproduce identically or for the same environmental reason on an untouched origin/dev tree exported with git archive to /private/tmp, and neither file is touched by or imports this diff: tests/claude-integration/claude-desktop-remote-hub.test.ts:249 (native catalog label mismatch, same failure on dev) and tests/ci-workflows/bun-runtime.test.ts (test-home guard refuses removal because this worktree lives under the real ~/.codex; on the dev export it fails on local PATH Bun provenance). Hosted CI is the authoritative full run.
  • Fixtures use only synthetic credentials (fixture-runtime-token); the caller's authorization is asserted to be replaced and unrelated headers removed.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.
  • Docs or release notes were updated when needed.
  • Security-sensitive changes were reviewed for secrets, auth, and unsafe defaults.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Compatibility
    • Added compatibility coverage for the OpenGateway GLM-5.3 Flash Ultrafast Responses route. Custom tools and their call history are translated to function tools and calls; grammar constraints are not preserved.
    • Clarified that the OpenAI Responses route preserves custom-tool grammar formats.

…sentation

Record custom-tool representation and grammar as separate compatibility
claims, and add a second exact subject where grammar is lost.

- canonical Codex forward (gpt-5.6-sol): new request.custom_tools.grammar
  passthrough claim backed by a format assertion with a real Lark
  definition; manifest 1.4.0
- OpenGateway key auth (z-ai/glm-5.3-flash-ultrafast on the Responses
  wire, supportsResponsesCustomTools=false): custom tools translated to a
  string-input function, grammar degraded, custom_tool_call and
  custom_tool_call_output history translated
- manifest test runs each fixture against the production adapter for its
  own subject, pins every subject's route, and adds a catalog evidence
  gate: cited assertion ids must exist in the owning fixture, and a
  passthrough claim may only cite equals assertions whose expected value
  is the caller's own input, so grammar loss cannot be labeled lossless

No runtime behavior change; manifests stay passive.

📝 Walkthrough

The compatibility catalog adds an OpenGateway GLM-5.3 Flash Ultrafast Responses manifest. Tests execute fixtures for each manifest subject through its production adapter and validate fixture evidence for passthrough claims.

Changes: Compatibility manifests and evidence

Layer / File(s) Summary
Define and register compatibility claims
src/compatibility/openai-responses.ts, src/compatibility/opengateway-responses.ts, src/compatibility/index.ts, tests/fixtures/compatibility/openai-codex-forward-gpt56-sol-v1.json
The canonical manifest changes version to 1.4.0 and adds a custom-tool grammar passthrough claim. The OpenGateway manifest records custom-tool lowering, grammar removal, and call-history translations. The compatibility index registers the new manifest. The canonical fixture adds a grammar definition and preservation assertion.
Execute fixtures against manifest subjects
tests/codex-integration/compatibility-manifest.test.ts, tests/fixtures/compatibility/opengateway-key-glm53-responses-v1.json, structure/adapters/compatibility-contracts.md
The tests resolve each manifest subject’s adapter, configure authentication, and run its fixture through the production adapter. The OpenGateway fixture checks request routing, header handling, custom-tool conversion, and function-call representations.
Validate fixture evidence and passthrough claims
tests/codex-integration/compatibility-manifest.test.ts, structure/adapters/compatibility-contracts.md, docs-site/src/content/docs/{contributing.md,ja/contributing.md,ko/contributing.md,ru/contributing.md,zh-cn/contributing.md}
The evidence checks validate fixture and assertion references. Passthrough claims must cite feature-bound equality assertions whose values match caller input. Documentation describes the checks and directs contributors to separate claims for aspects with different preservation outcomes.

A passthrough claim could cite any preserved caller value, so a grammar
claim backed by an equals assertion on /body/model passed the gate while
the grammar was dropped. Each passthrough-claimable feature now names the
selectors that can prove it, grammar evidence must carry a non-empty
definition, and unbound features cannot be claimed as passthrough.

- Around line 266-270: Update the compatibility-claim guidance in the ja, ko,
ru, and zh-cn localized sections to match the English requirements: allow
passthrough claims only when feature-bound equals assertions preserve the
caller’s own value at the same place, and keep custom-tool and grammar claims
separate when their behavior differs.
