"""Migrate Hermes' MCP server config and Codex's installed curated plugins to the format Codex expects in ~/.codex/config.toml. When the user enables the codex_app_server runtime, the codex subprocess runs its own MCP client and its own plugin runtime (Linear, Atlassian, Asana, plus per-account ChatGPT apps via app/list). For both of those to be useful, the user's choices need to be visible to codex too. This module: 1. Reads Hermes' YAML and writes equivalent [mcp_servers.] entries to ~/.codex/config.toml. 2. Queries codex's `plugin/list` for the openai-curated marketplace and writes [plugins."@"] entries for any plugin the user has installed=true on their codex CLI. (This is what OpenClaw calls "migrate native codex plugins" — the YouTube-video- worthy bit Pash highlighted: Canva, GitHub, Calendar, Gmail pre-configured.) 3. Writes a [permissions] default profile so users on this runtime don't get an approval prompt on every write attempt. What translates (MCP servers): Hermes mcp_servers..command/args/env → codex stdio transport Hermes mcp_servers..url/headers → codex streamable_http transport Hermes mcp_servers..timeout → codex tool_timeout_sec Hermes mcp_servers..connect_timeout → codex startup_timeout_sec What does NOT translate (warned + skipped): Hermes-specific keys (sampling, etc.) — codex's MCP client has no equivalent. Listed in the per-server skipped[] field of the report. What's NOT migrated (intentional): AGENTS.md — codex respects this file natively in its cwd. Hermes' own AGENTS.md (project-level) is already in the worktree, so codex picks it up without translation. No code needed.
