Codex hook binding verifies a canonical rollout path, but the reader previously reopened the original path. An alias retargeted between verification and reading could therefore select a different file. Pass the verified canonical path into the callback and use it in the actual rollout reader.
Add second-snapshot refusal tests for a released parent lock, a closed rollout and changed captured birth evidence, while retaining the constant two-snapshot scaling check. Document that multi-chat app-server/IDE sessions and CLI roots with live subagents skip the SessionStart preamble and early activation; those actions are not deferred or replayed. Missing turn IDs, unavailable birth evidence and a rollout outside the core's configured Codex homes leave hook work pending.
This is a separate follow-up to merged #2090. These are local context-binding checks, not authentication against a malicious process running as the same user. The installed Codex0.166 turn-ID assumption was checked against its pinned submission UUID7 implementation; custom harness versions may differ. No UUID-only restriction is added.
Test Plan
Three targeted tests pass: canonical reader with a retargeted alias; second-snapshot lock/rollout/birth mutations deny; 2 and 12 held rollouts both use exactly two snapshots.
Seven affected actual hook route and registration-guidance tests pass.
Exact merged-base/head proof: 29f4017e5f8d2ae83d96c9f976c62aefcd98063a fails the canonical-read regression; 00fec7ebdc585c50ed1c75a4ad6e9ab1ddb09c1e passes it. Both arms compile and execute the actual binding helper and reader.
Cargo fmt, pinned Prettier, quality comparison (105 inherited findings on both sides; none new) and final Veto code/security/secrets review pass.
Current-head CI and independent review.
RelayFlow Proof
Change type: bugfix
RelayFlow case: codex-hook-canonical-read
The runner applies the same canonical-read test to both exact clean revisions. It transparently adapts only the base fixture's callback ABI: the old FnOnce() captures the original alias, matching the old reader; the new FnOnce(&Path) receives the verified canonical path. The test retargets the alias after verification and confirms the alternate file differs. Neither arm changes production code. Dirty revisions, compile failures or a skipped test do not count as a reproduced bug; fixture overlays are restored afterward.

The Codex hook read callback now receives the verified canonical rollout path. Tests cover symlink retargeting and file-snapshot changes. The changelog and relay-core documentation describe Codex hook checks and SessionStart behavior.
The callback receives the canonical rollout path, and the turn-match check reads from that path. A symlink-retargeting test and RelayFlow case cover the canonical read. Documentation describes hook context checks and SessionStart behavior.
The test fixture supports alternate file snapshots. Tests verify that changes to parent locks, child rollouts, or parent rollout birth times cause the descendant check to deny.
AgentWorkforce/relay#2090: Adds the verified rollout and active-turn checks that this change updates to read through the verified canonical path.
AgentWorkforce/relay#2029: Adds the Codex SessionStart preamble and early activation whose skip conditions this change documents.
Merge Risk: Low · up to 00fec
The canonical-path fix is mergeable with a bounded testing follow-up: exercise the production reader during alias retargeting so a future regression cannot bypass the new test.

Summary
The reader now opens the verified canonical rollout path instead of reopening its original alias.
Codex hooks read the active turn from the rollout file the core verified.
Codex hook guidance explains when a session gets Relay context.

Test the production reader after retargeting the alias.
This test supplies its own reader. It would still pass if the production reader used the captured alias instead of verified_path. Add a test that retargets the alias after verification and exercises the production reader.
