What changed

The v3.8.0 changelog now lists #2159 under Fixed: Codex CLI and Grok CLI sign-in access tokens can reach their own vendor APIs. Pipelock allows the token only as the whole Authorization bearer, over HTTPS, at that vendor's API host and path, when its issuer and client claims name that vendor. Any other JWT still blocks.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Added an upgrade note explaining when Codex CLI and Grok CLI sign-in tokens are permitted for inspected traffic: the token must be the full bearer authorization value, the request must target the matching vendor API host and path, and the issuer and client claims must identify that vendor. Token signatures are not verified, so matching claims may allow forged tokens; JWTs with other claims remain blocked.

The changelog still overstates JWT blocking under warning-only policies. Runtime behavior is unchanged; qualify the enforcement wording as a bounded documentation correction.

Explanation

The title "docs: note sign-in bearer allowance in v3.8.0 release notes" matches the changeset. The raw summary and PR objectives both describe a single CHANGELOG.md edit that adds a 3.8.0 upgrade note about Codex CLI and Grok CLI sign-in token allowances, with no code or declaration changes. The title names the change type (docs), the file area (v3.8.0 release notes), and the subject (sign-in bearer allowance). It is specific and readable, and it does not mention the issue number, which is acceptable.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Review comments at @CHANGELOG.md:
- Line 79: Update the changelog entry so the JWT-blocking statement applies
specifically to sign-in endpoints, not all JWTs. Link to the existing audience
rules for qualifying GHCR registry JWTs and GitHub release-download grants,
preserving the vendor-specific token restrictions.
- Line 79: Update the Codex CLI and Grok CLI changelog entry to qualify its
JWT-blocking claim: explain that other JWTs are subject to DLP enforcement only
when traffic is inspected and enforcement applies, and clarify that HTTPS
CONNECT content is not inspected without TLS interception.
- Line 79: Update the Codex CLI and Grok CLI entry in the changelog to clarify
that the proxy does not verify JWT signatures and that tokens with matching
issuer and client claims may pass even if the vendor did not issue them;
preserve the stated restrictions on token placement, HTTPS, and vendor API host
and path.
