Two gaps a real codex step made visible on the Cloud dashboard. Found by running one: flows run --cloud-mirror with a cli: claude step and a cli: codex step, published 2.0.32 against production.

Pairs with AgentWorkforce/cloud#3994, which renders what this sends. Either can merge first — until both land, the dashboard reads exactly as it does today.

Unpriced was indistinguishable from free

The kernel already records dollars_unmetered, and flows status already prints (unmetered) from it. The mirror dropped it. So Cloud could not tell:

  • a step that genuinely cost nothing — a deterministic echo, from
  • a step that spent real money against an unpriced model

Both arrived as an absent costUsd and rendered blank.

Codex is the everyday case, and by design rather than oversight — model-pricing.ts says it outright:

"Codex model ids need no entry here; Codex selects its own model."

I confirmed that against Codex's own event schema: the model appears nowhere in codex-rs/exec/src/exec_events.rs. ThreadStartedEvent is {thread_id}; TurnCompletedEvent is {usage}; Usage is five integer token fields. No flag or verbosity level will produce it. So MODEL_PRICING has nothing to match, and the unpriced path is the normal path.

The flag now rides on the step row, and only when no attempt produced a price — a step priced on one attempt and unpriced on another has a real figure, and calling the whole step unpriced would hide it. Still never a fabricated zero.

Three of Codex's nine item types were unparsed

ThreadItemDetails defines nine variants; this module read six. So web_search, todo_list and collab_tool_call reached the page as bare unknown placeholders naming a type and a size — honest, but unreadable. todo_list was the worst: it updates continuously through a real turn, so the most frequent item in an agent transcript was the one nobody could read.

All three are parsed from the Rust structs now:

  • todo_list — a plan, not a call: no status, and no sequence number.
  • web_search — the query and its result count, numbered in call order.
  • collab_tool_call — agent states summarised by status, not listed: agents_states is keyed by agent id, and an id is not something a transcript reader can act on.

A bug I nearly shipped

I had planned to add reasoning_output_tokens to metered output, on the theory it was a missing addend. It is not — it is a subset of output_tokens:

/// Primary count for display as a single absolute value: non-cached input + output.
pub fn blended_total(&self) -> i64 {
    (self.non_cached_input() + self.output_tokens.max(0)).max(0)
}

Codex's own total adds only output_tokens, and nothing in protocol.rs adds reasoning to output. Summing them would have inflated metered output and, through maxDollars, the budget ceiling itself. It is carried as a breakdown and never summed.

Testing

Tests 3452 passed on the full SDK suite; typecheck and tests-typecheck clean. The only failures are two pre-existing environment ones: authored-node-runtime pins bun --version === 1.4.0 where this box has 1.4.2, and live-kernel > hn-monitor needs a real Claude analyzer CLI on PATH.

New coverage: unmetered propagation (including that a genuinely free step is not marked, and that a real figure wins over the flag), the reasoning-is-a-subset assertion, and one case per new item type.

One existing test changed rather than broke. It used todo_list and web_search as its stand-ins for an unsupported item type; both are parsed now, so it uses a type Codex does not define — which is what the fallback is actually for, and the payload still must not reach the page.

Note

Medium Risk
Changes how step spend is serialized for Cloud and how multi-attempt costs are aggregated; mistakes would skew dashboard spend, though behavior is aligned with run-state and heavily tested.

Overview
Cloud mirror step rows now expose costUnmetered when the journal’s budget.dollars_unmetered is set, so hosted runs can distinguish free steps from token spend that was never priced (typical Codex). costUsd is emitted whenever any attempt reported a price—including $0—and can appear together with costUnmetered when retries mix priced and unpriced attempts, treating the dollar field as a lower bound rather than a full total.

Codex transcript parsing adds real handling for todo_list, web_search, and collab_tool_call instead of unknown placeholders: todos render as capped plan lines with full done/total counts, searches and collab calls as numbered tools, with collab agent states summarised by status and redacted like other provider strings. Tests cover unmetered propagation, mixed-attempt costing, and each new item type (pairs with Cloud UI in AgentWorkforce/cloud#3994).

Summary by cubic

Fixes two gaps a real Codex step surfaced on the Cloud dashboard: unpriced spend was indistinguishable from free, and three of Codex's nine transcript item types rendered as unreadable placeholders. Pairs with AgentWorkforce/cloud#3994, which renders the new flag; either can merge first, and until both land the dashboard reads exactly as it does today.

Unpriced spend

The mirror now carries costUnmetered on the step row when tokens were counted but no attempt priced them, so Cloud can tell a genuinely free deterministic echo from real spend against an unpriced model — Codex's everyday case, since it never reports its model. If one attempt was priced and another unpriced, costUsd carries the known figure as a lower bound and the flag says the rest is unknown; the flag is never a fabricated zero.

Reasoning tokens are carried as a breakdown and never added to tokensOutput: Codex's own total is non_cached_input + output_tokens, and reasoning_output_tokens is a subset of it. Summing them would have inflated metered output and, through maxDollars, the budget ceiling itself.

Remaining Codex item types

web_search, todo_list, and collab_tool_call are now parsed from the Rust structs instead of surfacing as unknown placeholders.

  • todo_list renders as a plan, not a call — the display is capped at 12 items, but completion counts across the whole plan.
  • web_search renders as a numbered call with its query and result count.
  • collab_tool_call summarizes agent states by status rather than listing agent ids, and agent statuses pass through the redactor like every neighboring field.

One existing test changed rather than broke: it used todo_list and web_search as stand-ins for an unsupported item type and now uses a type Codex does not define, which is what the fallback is for. Full SDK suite passes; the only failures are two pre-existing environment ones (authored-node-runtime bun version pin and hn-monitor's missing Claude analyzer CLI).

Written for commit 785684e. Summary will update on new commits.

…'s items

Two gaps a codex step made visible on the dashboard.

**Unpriced was indistinguishable from free.** The kernel already records
`dollars_unmetered`, and `flows status` already prints `(unmetered)` from it —
the mirror dropped it. So Cloud could not tell a step that genuinely cost
nothing (a deterministic `echo`) from one that spent real money against an
unpriced model: both arrived as an absent `costUsd` and rendered blank. Codex
is the everyday case, because it selects its own model and never reports it, so
`MODEL_PRICING` has nothing to match — as `model-pricing.ts` says outright.
The flag now rides on the step row, and only when no attempt produced a price:
a step priced on one attempt and unpriced on another has a real figure, and
claiming the whole step is unpriced would hide it. Still never a fabricated
zero.

**Three of Codex's nine item types were unparsed.** `ThreadItemDetails`
(codex-rs/exec/src/exec_events.rs) defines nine; this module read six, so
`web_search`, `todo_list` and `collab_tool_call` reached the page as bare
`unknown` placeholders naming a type and a size. `todo_list` was the worst of
them: it updates continuously through a real turn, so the most frequent item in
an agent transcript was the one a reader could not read. All three are now
parsed from the Rust structs — a plan takes no sequence number because it is
not a call, and collab agent states are summarised by status rather than listed,
because agent ids are not something a transcript reader can act on.

Reasoning tokens are carried as a **breakdown and never summed**. Codex's own
`blended_total()` is `non_cached_input + output_tokens`, and nothing in its
protocol adds reasoning to output, so `reasoning_output_tokens` is a subset of
`output_tokens` (codex-rs/protocol/src/protocol.rs). I had this backwards and
was about to add them: that would have inflated metered output and, through
`maxDollars`, the budget ceiling itself.

One existing test changed rather than broke. It used `todo_list` and
`web_search` as its stand-ins for an unsupported item type; both are parsed
now, so it uses a type Codex does not define — which is what the fallback is
actually for, and the payload still must not reach the page.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The SDK now reports unmetered final-step costs and keeps reasoning-token usage separate from output-token totals. Codex transcript parsing recognizes web searches, to-do lists, and collaboration calls, and terminal rendering displays to-do progress.

Changes

Cost reporting

Layer / File(s) Summary
Attempt cost and token reporting
packages/sdk/src/cloud-mirror-step.ts, packages/sdk/tests/cloud-mirror-step.test.ts
Attempt records capture unmetered budget status and reasoning-token usage. Final steps report costUnmetered only when summed cost is zero and at least one attempt is unmetered. Tests cover these cases and token breakdowns.

Codex transcript parsing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Codex item types and parsing
packages/sdk/src/cloud-transcript-types.ts, packages/sdk/src/cloud-transcript-codex.ts, packages/sdk/tests/cloud-transcript-codex.test.ts
The parser supports to-do plans, web searches, and collaboration calls. Tests cover parsed entries and placeholders for unrecognized item types.
To-do transcript rendering
packages/sdk/src/cloud-transcript.ts
The terminal renderer displays plan progress, completion markers, and omitted-item counts. The module re-exports TranscriptThread and TranscriptTodo.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 06fb7

Collaboration status text may expose sensitive content in transcripts, while longer plans and mixed zero-price steps can display misleading progress or cost metadata. Correct these paths before merging.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 06fb7

A newly displayed collaboration status can bypass the transcript’s redaction and length limits. Exposure appears limited to readers of affected logs; the change does not show a new access path or expanded privileges.

Retained concerns

  • Low · security · observed: Newly supported collaboration items place unredacted, unbounded nested agent-state status strings in a transcript output excerpt visible to parsed-log readers.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The demonstrated exposure is per affected collaboration item in a log returned to a log reader, including parsed JSON and rendered terminal output. No new tenant access or privilege-granting path was established.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • observed — A string in an untrusted collaboration item’s agents_states status is counted and copied verbatim into output_excerpt. The log reader can receive that value without the redaction normally applied to transcript excerpts; sensitive content in such a status could therefore be disclosed.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The parser’s cleaning function redacts provider text, and the collaboration item’s top-level status uses it. The nested agent-state statuses bypass it; terminal character-safety formatting does not restore redaction.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Apply the existing redaction and excerpt bounds to the assembled collaboration summary before assigning it to output_excerpt, and reflect truncation in the output metadata.

🔴 Partially priced steps hide unknown spend

When an unpriced retry follows a priced attempt, unmetered becomes false because spentUsd is positive. The final row presents partial dollars as the full known spend.

Learn more

The kernel records dollars_unmetered alongside any known dollars and addSpend preserves that flag across charges. The final row instead suppresses the flag once any attempt has positive total_cost_usd. Cloud receives the partial priced total without any indication that another attempt has unknown cost. Keep the known figure and the unknown-cost marker together, provided Cloud's final-row contract accepts both.

Example: Attempt one costs $0.02 and attempt two records dollars_unmetered: true. The row reports only costUsd: 0.02; the actual cost is at least $0.02, not exactly $0.02.

Recommended fix: Derive costUnmetered from any attempt with costUnmetered === true, regardless of spentUsd. Preserve the positive costUsd simultaneously; confirm the receiving parser and dashboard handle this lower-bound combination.

P1 Badge Preserve unmetered status for partially priced retries

When a retried step has a priced attempt and a separate unpriced attempt, spentUsd > 0 makes this expression false, so the Cloud row publishes the known dollar subtotal as though it were the complete cost and silently loses the unknown charge. Determine unmetered status per attempt and keep costUnmetered alongside costUsd whenever any attempt remains unpriced.

P2 Badge Count completed todos across the entire plan

For plans longer than TODO_MAX_ITEMS, done counts only the displayed prefix, so a completed item after position 12 is omitted from the numerator while still included in total; for example, a 13-item plan whose last item is complete renders 0/13. Compute completion count from all valid items before slicing the display list.

Reasoning tokens never actually carried

Medium Severity

reasoningOut is read from usage.reasoning_output_tokens on the journal digest, but buildTranscriptDigest remaps Codex usage to input/output/cache_read and never writes reasoning tokens. The value is also never copied onto the outgoing step row or detail, so the breakdown the comments describe never leaves the fold.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Check for a reported price, not a positive sum.

If an attempt reports total_cost_usd: 0 and an attempt has dollars_unmetered: true, spentUsd remains zero. The final step then claims no attempt produced a price, although one did. Check whether any attempt has costUsd !== undefined before setting costUnmetered, and cover a reported zero price in the tests.

Count completed items before limiting the displayed list.

When a plan has more than 12 items, done counts only the completed items in the first 12. This makes displayed progress inaccurate, such as 12/13 for 13 completed items. Calculate done from the full items array, and limit only the items sent to the renderer.

🐛 Suggested fix
     const listed = items.slice(0, TODO_MAX_ITEMS).flatMap((entry) => {
       const todo = isRecord(entry) ? entry : undefined;
       const text = str(todo?.['text']);
       return text === null ? [] : [{ text: context.clean(text), done: todo!['completed'] === true }];
     });
+    const done = items.filter((entry) =>
+      isRecord(entry) && entry['completed'] === true
+    ).length;
     return [{
-      kind: 'todo', total: items.length, done: listed.filter(entry => entry.done).length,
+      kind: 'todo', total: items.length, done,
       items: listed, ...(items.length > listed.length ? { omitted: items.length - listed.length } : {}),

… keep both spend facts

Five findings, four bots, three of them converging on the same lines.

**A collab agent status reached the page unredacted (security).** This layer IS
the redactor — every neighbouring field goes through `context.clean` — and the
per-status summary was the one string that did not. A status is provider text,
not a closed vocabulary this module controls, so a credential appearing in one
would have reached both the parsed JSON and the rendered transcript.

**Partially priced retries published a subtotal as the whole cost.** The flag was
suppressed whenever `spentUsd > 0`, so a step that spent $0.02 on attempt 1 and
an unpriced amount on attempt 2 reported exactly $0.02. The two facts are not
exclusive: `costUsd` is then a *lower bound* and `costUnmetered` says so —
`run-state.ts`'s `addSpend` keeps them together for the same reason. This is the
same failure mode as a fabricated zero, one level up, and I built it in while
trying to avoid the other.

**And it tested a positive sum rather than a reported price.** An attempt
reporting `total_cost_usd: 0` did produce a price; `spentUsd === 0` called that
step unpriced. Now keyed on presence.

**A 13-item plan whose last item was done rendered `0/13`.** `done` counted the
displayed prefix while `total` counted every item — backwards from "the rest are
counted, not printed". Counted across the whole plan; only the display is capped.

**`reasoningOut` was dead code** (AGENTS.md rule 6). It was populated and never
read, and the journal's transcript digest does not record reasoning tokens at
all, so the extraction read a field that was never there. Removed. The run page
reads the breakdown off Codex's own `turn.completed` frame, where it does exist.

`Tests 3455 passed`; the two failures are the standing environment ones (Bun
pinned 1.4.0 vs 1.4.2, `hn-monitor` wants a real Claude CLI).
