codex-control-plane-mcp is a durable MCP server that turns Codex Desktop into a reliable worker for long-running tasks. It provides retry-safe operations, Plan Mode workflows, approval handling, and comprehensive diagnostics through a simple poll-based API.

Overview

Unlike thin Codex wrappers that block on multi-hour calls or lose state on retry, this control plane provides:

• Durable async operations: Submit a task, get an operationId immediately, poll until complete
• Retry safety: Same client_request_id returns existing operation instead of creating duplicates
• Plan Mode workflows: Start plan → poll → approve → execute → read final report
• Approval handling: Pending interactions exposed as pollable MCP state
• Diagnostics: Health checks, issue analysis, and dry-run repairs
• SQLite persistence: Local history of operations, workflows, turns, hooks, and diagnostics
