Summary
Why
Codex 0.115.0 made bubblewrap the default Linux sandbox. WSL1 cannot create the user namespaces that bubblewrap needs, so shell commands currently fail later with a raw bwrap namespace error. This makes the unsupported environment explicit and keeps non-bubblewrap paths unchanged.
The WSL detection reads /proc/version, lets an explicit WSL marker decide WSL1 vs WSL2+, and only treats a bare Microsoft marker as WSL1 when no explicit WSL version is present.
