Summary
AppToolPolicyEvaluatorand the Apps config/requirements policy logic fromcodex-coreintocodex-connectorsWhy
build_mcp_tool_exposureevaluates every Codex Apps tool on each sampling request. The old path rebuilt effective Apps configuration for every tool, and the policy implementation lived in the already-large core crate even though it is connector-specific.The connector-owned evaluator keeps the expensive config merge/decode out of the loop and gives core only the effective policy result it needs.
Performance
With the real 557-tool Apps corpus,
build_mcp_tool_exposuremeasured 3.74 ms and 3.33 ms after the extraction (3.54 ms mean). The original path measured 807 ms mean, so the final result retains the 99.6% reduction.Validation
