If writing or renaming fails, the code attempts to remove the temporary file and rethrows the error to the existing best-effort handler. Tests check transcript discovery, the cache entry, and temporary-file cleanup. ChangesCodex session cache
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~8 minutes Change: Bug fix Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Concurrent session lookups can lose cached mappings or leave an invalid cache. Give each write a unique temporary file before merging unless this risk is explicitly accepted. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to The change reduces the chance of readers seeing incomplete cache data. Concurrent updates can still lose cache entries, but the cache is best-effort and no new security exposure was established. Filesystem access assumptions remain unverified.

The changed cache-writing behavior has no test. Add a discovery test that asserts the cache contents and confirms that no

Done in the latest push. Failure-path coverage added per the AGENTS.md unit-test rule: one test forces the temp write to fail (read-only state dir), one forces the rename to fail (a non-empty directory where the cache file belongs), both assert no |
Description
Fixes #689.
writeCacheEntryinlib/codex-sessions.tswrotecodex-session-paths.jsondirectly, so a concurrent reader (or a crashed writer) could observe a torn JSON file. Now writes to a per-process temp file (<cache>.<pid>.tmp) andrenameSyncs it over the cache, unlinking the temp file if the write fails. The best-effort try/catch semantics are unchanged - a failed write still degrades silently, andreadCachealready falls back to{}on a bad read.Type of Change
