## Why
Per-turn permission overrides should use the same canonical profile
abstraction as session configuration. That lets TUI submissions preserve
exact configured permissions without round-tripping through legacy
sandbox fields.
## What changed
This adds `permission_profile` to user-turn operations, threads it
through TUI/app-server submission paths, fills the new field in existing
test fixtures, and adds coverage that composer submission includes the
configured profile.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-tui permissions -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all permissions_messages --
--nocapture`

## Summary
Support the existing hooks schema in inline TOML so hooks can be
configured from both `config.toml` and enterprise-managed
`requirements.toml` without requiring a separate `hooks.json` payload.
This gives enterprise admins a way to ship managed hook policy through
the existing requirements channel while still leaving script delivery to
MDM or other device-management tooling, and it keeps `hooks.json`
working unchanged for existing users.
This also lays the groundwork for follow-on managed filtering work such
as #15937, while continuing to respect project trust gating from #14718.
It does **not** implement `allow_managed_hooks_only` itself.
NOTE: yes, it's a bit unfortunate that the toml isn't formatted as
closely as normal to our default styling. This is because we're trying
to stay compatible with the spec for plugins/hooks that we'll need to
support & the main usecase here is embedding into requirements.toml
## What changed
- moved the shared hook serde model out of `codex-rs/hooks` into
`codex-rs/config` so the same schema can power `hooks.json`, inline
`config.toml` hooks, and managed `requirements.toml` hooks
- added `hooks` support to both `ConfigToml` and
`ConfigRequirementsToml`, including requirements-side `managed_dir` /
`windows_managed_dir`
- treated requirements-managed hooks as one constrained value via
`Constrained`, so managed hook policy is merged atomically and cannot
drift across requirement sources
- updated hook discovery to load requirements-managed hooks first, then
per-layer `hooks.json`, then per-layer inline TOML hooks, with a warning
when a single layer defines both representations
- threaded managed hook metadata through discovered handlers and exposed
requirements hooks in app-server responses, generated schemas, and
`/debug-config`
- added hook/config coverage in `codex-rs/config`, `codex-rs/hooks`,
`codex-rs/core/src/config_loader/tests.rs`, and
`codex-rs/core/tests/suite/hooks.rs`
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-config`
- `cargo test -p codex-hooks`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server config_api`
## Documentation
Companion updates are needed in the developers website repo for:
- the hooks guide
- the config reference, sample, basic, and advanced pages
- the enterprise managed configuration guide

## Summary
- add experimental turn/start.environments params for per-turn
environment id + cwd selections
- pass selections through core protocol ops and resolve them with
EnvironmentManager before TurnContext creation
- treat omitted selections as default behavior, empty selections as no
environment, and non-empty selections as first environment/cwd as the
turn primary
## Testing
- ran `just fmt`
- ran `just write-app-server-schema`
- not run: unit tests for this stacked PR

- Replace the active models-manager catalog with the deleted core
catalog contents.
- Replace stale hardcoded test model slugs with current bundled model
slugs.
- Keep this as a stacked change on top of the cleanup PR.
## Summary
- replace the unsubscribe-during-turn test's sleep/polling flow with a
gated streaming SSE response
- add request-count notification support to the streaming SSE test
server so the test can wait for the in-flight Responses request
deterministically

- [x] Add resource uri meta to tool call item so that the app-server
client can start prefetching resources immediately without loading mcp
server status.
stacked on #17402.
MCP tools returned by `tool_search` (deferred tools) get registered in
our `ToolRegistry` with a different format than directly available
tools. this leads to two different ways of accessing MCP tools from our
tool catalog, only one of which works for each. fix this by registering
all MCP tools with the namespace format, since this info is already
available.
also, direct MCP tools are registered to responsesapi without a
namespace, while deferred MCP tools have a namespace. this means we can
receive MCP `FunctionCall`s in both formats from namespaces. fix this by
always registering MCP tools with namespace, regardless of deferral
status.
make code mode track `ToolName` provenance of tools so it can map the
literal JS function name string to the correct `ToolName` for
invocation, rather than supporting both in core.
this lets us unify to a single canonical `ToolName` representation for
each MCP tool and force everywhere to use that one, without supporting
fallbacks.
## Summary
- reuse a shared remote exec-server for remote-aware codex-core
integration tests within a test binary process
- keep per-test remote cwd creation and cleanup so tests retain
workspace isolation
- leave codex_self_exe, codex_linux_sandbox_exe, cwd_path(), and
workspace_path() behavior unchanged
## Validation
- rustfmt codex-rs/core/tests/common/test_codex.rs
- git diff --check
- CI is running on the updated branch
## Summary\n- add an exec-server package-local test helper binary that
can run exec-server and fs-helper flows\n- route exec-server filesystem
tests through that helper instead of cross-crate codex helper
binaries\n- stop relying on Bazel-only extra binary wiring for these
tests\n\n## Testing\n- not run (per repo guidance for codex changes)

## Summary
- bridge Codex Apps tools that declare `_meta["openai/fileParams"]`
through the OpenAI file upload flow
- mask those file params in model-visible tool schemas so the model
provides absolute local file paths instead of raw file payload objects
- rewrite those local file path arguments client-side into
`ProvidedFilePayload`-shaped objects before the normal MCP tool call
## Details
- applies to scalar and array file params declared in
`openai/fileParams`
- Codex uploads local files directly to the backend and uses the
uploaded file metadata to build the MCP tool arguments locally
- this PR is input-only
## Verification
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-core mcp_tool_call -- --nocapture`

## Summary
- run apply_patch through the executor filesystem when a remote
environment is present instead of shelling out to the local process
- thread the executor FileSystem into apply_patch interception and keep
existing local behavior for non-remote turns
- make the apply_patch integration harness use the executor filesystem
for setup/assertions
- add remote-aware skips for turn-diff coverage that still reads the
test-runner filesystem
## Why
Remote apply_patch needed to mutate the remote workspace instead of the
local checkout. The tests also needed to seed and assert workspace state
through the same filesystem abstraction so local and remote runs
exercise the same behavior.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
- `cargo check -p core_test_support --tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
suite::shell_serialization::apply_patch_custom_tool_call -- --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
suite::apply_patch_cli::apply_patch_cli_updates_file_appends_trailing_newline
-- --nocapture`
- remote `cargo test -p codex-core --test all apply_patch_cli --
--nocapture` (229 passed)
- Migrate apply-patch verification and application internals to use the
async `ExecutorFileSystem` abstraction from `exec-server`.
- Convert apply-patch `cwd` handling to `AbsolutePathBuf` through the
verifier/parser/handler boundary.
Doesn't change how the tool itself works.
## Summary
- make AGENTS.md discovery and loading fully FS-aware and remove the
non-FS discover helper
- migrate remote-aware codex-core tests to use TestEnv workspace setup

This removes the temporary `codex-core` / `codex-login` re-export shims
from the ownership split and rewrites callsites to import directly from
`codex-model-provider-info`, `codex-models-manager`, `codex-api`,
`codex-protocol`, `codex-feedback`, and `codex-response-debug-context`.
No behavior change intended; this is the mechanical import cleanup layer
split out from the ownership move.

## Summary
- split `models-manager` out of `core` and add `ModelsManagerConfig`
plus `Config::to_models_manager_config()` so model metadata paths stop
depending on `core::Config`
- move login-owned/auth-owned code out of `core` into `codex-login`,
move model provider config into `codex-model-provider-info`, move API
bridge mapping into `codex-api`, move protocol-owned types/impls into
`codex-protocol`, and move response debug helpers into a dedicated
`response-debug-context` crate
- move feedback tag emission into `codex-feedback`, relocate tests to
the crates that now own the code, and keep broad temporary re-exports so
this PR avoids a giant import-only rewrite
## Major moves and decisions
- created `codex-models-manager` as the owner for model
cache/catalog/config/model info logic, including the new
`ModelsManagerConfig` struct
- created `codex-model-provider-info` as the owner for provider config
parsing/defaults and kept temporary `codex-login`/`codex-core`
re-exports for old import paths
- moved `api_bridge` error mapping + `CoreAuthProvider` into
`codex-api`, while `codex-login::api_bridge` temporarily re-exports
those symbols and keeps the `auth_provider_from_auth` wrapper
- moved `auth_env_telemetry` and `provider_auth` ownership to
`codex-login`
- moved `CodexErr` ownership to `codex-protocol::error`, plus
`StreamOutput`, `bytes_to_string_smart`, and network policy helpers to
protocol-owned modules
- created `codex-response-debug-context` for
`extract_response_debug_context`, `telemetry_transport_error_message`,
and related response-debug plumbing instead of leaving that behavior in
`core`
- moved `FeedbackRequestTags`, `emit_feedback_request_tags`, and
`emit_feedback_request_tags_with_auth_env` to `codex-feedback`
- deferred removal of temporary re-exports and the mechanical import
rewrites to a stacked follow-up PR so this PR stays reviewable
## Test moves
- moved auth refresh coverage from `core/tests/suite/auth_refresh.rs` to
`login/tests/suite/auth_refresh.rs`
- moved text encoding coverage from
`core/tests/suite/text_encoding_fix.rs` to
`protocol/src/exec_output_tests.rs`
- moved model info override coverage from
`core/tests/suite/model_info_overrides.rs` to
`models-manager/src/model_info_overrides_tests.rs`

## Why
`codex-core` was re-exporting APIs owned by sibling `codex-*` crates,
which made downstream crates depend on `codex-core` as a proxy module
instead of the actual owner crate.
Removing those forwards makes crate boundaries explicit and lets leaf
crates drop unnecessary `codex-core` dependencies. In this PR, this
reduces the dependency on `codex-core` to `codex-login` in the following
files:
```
codex-rs/backend-client/Cargo.toml
codex-rs/mcp-server/tests/common/Cargo.toml
```
## What
- Remove `codex-rs/core/src/lib.rs` re-exports for symbols owned by
`codex-login`, `codex-mcp`, `codex-rollout`, `codex-analytics`,
`codex-protocol`, `codex-shell-command`, `codex-sandboxing`,
`codex-tools`, and `codex-utils-path`.
- Delete the `default_client` forwarding shim in `codex-rs/core`.
- Update in-crate and downstream callsites to import directly from the
owning `codex-*` crate.
- Add direct Cargo dependencies where callsites now target the owner
crate, and remove `codex-core` from `codex-rs/backend-client`.
## Why
Follow-up to #16345, the Bazel clippy rollout in #15955, and the cleanup
pass in #16353.
`cargo clippy` was enforcing the workspace deny-list from
`codex-rs/Cargo.toml` because the member crates opt into `[lints]
workspace = true`, but Bazel clippy was only using `rules_rust` plus
`clippy.toml`. That left the Bazel lane vulnerable to drift:
`clippy.toml` can tune lint behavior, but it cannot set
allow/warn/deny/forbid levels.
This PR now closes both sides of the follow-up. It keeps `.bazelrc` in
sync with `[workspace.lints.clippy]`, and it fixes the real clippy
violations that the newly-synced Windows Bazel lane surfaced once that
deny-list started matching Cargo.
## What Changed
- added `.github/scripts/verify_bazel_clippy_lints.py`, a Python check
that parses `codex-rs/Cargo.toml` with `tomllib`, reads the Bazel
`build:clippy` `clippy_flag` entries from `.bazelrc`, and reports
missing, extra, or mismatched lint levels
- ran that verifier from the lightweight `ci.yml` workflow so the sync
check does not depend on a Rust toolchain being installed first
- expanded the `.bazelrc` comment to explain the Cargo `workspace =
true` linkage and why Bazel needs the deny-list duplicated explicitly
- fixed the Windows-only `codex-windows-sandbox` violations that Bazel
clippy reported after the sync, using the same style as #16353: inline
`format!` args, method references instead of trivial closures, removed
redundant clones, and replaced SID conversion `unwrap` and `expect`
calls with proper errors
- cleaned up the remaining cross-platform violations the Bazel lane
exposed in `codex-backend-client` and `core_test_support`
## Testing
Key new test introduced by this PR:
`python3 .github/scripts/verify_bazel_clippy_lints.py`
## Why
Bazel clippy now catches lints that `cargo clippy` can still miss when a
crate under `codex-rs` forgets to opt into workspace lints. The concrete
example here was `codex-rs/app-server/tests/common/Cargo.toml`: Bazel
flagged a clippy violation in `models_cache.rs`, but Cargo did not
because that crate inherited workspace package metadata without
declaring `[lints] workspace = true`.
We already mirror the workspace clippy deny list into Bazel after
[#15955](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/15955), so we also need a
repo-side check that keeps every `codex-rs` manifest opted into the same
workspace settings.
## What changed
- add `.github/scripts/verify_cargo_workspace_manifests.py`, which
parses every `codex-rs/**/Cargo.toml` with `tomllib` and verifies:
- `version.workspace = true`
- `edition.workspace = true`
- `license.workspace = true`
- `[lints] workspace = true`
- top-level crate names follow the `codex-*` / `codex-utils-*`
conventions, with explicit exceptions for `windows-sandbox-rs` and
`utils/path-utils`
- run that script in `.github/workflows/ci.yml`
- update the current outlier manifests so the check is enforceable
immediately
- fix the newly exposed clippy violations in the affected crates
(`app-server/tests/common`, `file-search`, `feedback`,
`shell-escalation`, and `debug-client`)

* #16351
* __->__ #16353
## Why
`#[large_stack_test]` made the `apply_patch_cli` tests pass by giving
them more stack, but it did not address why those tests needed the extra
stack in the first place.
The real problem is the async state built by the `apply_patch_cli`
harness path. Those tests await three helper boundaries directly:
harness construction, turn submission, and apply-patch output
collection. If those helpers inline their full child futures, the test
future grows to include the whole harness startup and request/response
path.
This change replaces the workaround from #12768 with the same basic
approach used in #13429, but keeps the fix narrower: only the helper
boundaries awaited directly by `apply_patch_cli` stay boxed.
## What Changed
- removed `#[large_stack_test]` from
`core/tests/suite/apply_patch_cli.rs`
- restored ordinary `#[tokio::test(flavor = "multi_thread",
worker_threads = 2)]` annotations in that suite
- deleted the now-unused `codex-test-macros` crate and removed its
workspace wiring
- boxed only the three helper boundaries that the suite awaits directly:
- `apply_patch_harness_with(...)`
- `TestCodexHarness::submit(...)`
- `TestCodexHarness::apply_patch_output(...)`
- added comments at those boxed boundaries explaining why they remain
boxed
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all suite::apply_patch_cli --
--nocapture`
## References
- #12768
- #13429
Fixes#15283.
## Summary
Older system bubblewrap builds reject `--argv0`, which makes our Linux
sandbox fail before the helper can re-exec. This PR keeps using system
`/usr/bin/bwrap` whenever it exists and only falls back to vendored
bwrap when the system binary is missing. That matters on stricter
AppArmor hosts, where the distro bwrap package also provides the policy
setup needed for user namespaces.
For old system bwrap, we avoid `--argv0` instead of switching binaries:
- pass the sandbox helper a full-path `argv0`,
- keep the existing `current_exe() + --argv0` path when the selected
launcher supports it,
- otherwise omit `--argv0` and re-exec through the helper's own
`argv[0]` path, whose basename still dispatches as
`codex-linux-sandbox`.
Also updates the launcher/warning tests and docs so they match the new
behavior: present-but-old system bwrap uses the compatibility path, and
only absent system bwrap falls back to vendored.
### Validation
1. Install Ubuntu 20.04 in a VM
2. Compile codex and run without bubblewrap installed - see a warning
about falling back to the vendored bwrap
3. Install bwrap and verify version is 0.4.0 without `argv0` support
4. run codex and use apply_patch tool without errors

Add environment manager that is a singleton and is created early in
app-server (before skill manager, before config loading).
Use an environment variable to point to a running exec server.
Migrate `cwd` and related session/config state to `AbsolutePathBuf` so
downstream consumers consistently see absolute working directories.
Add test-only `.abs()` helpers for `Path`, `PathBuf`, and `TempDir`, and
update branch-local tests to use them instead of
`AbsolutePathBuf::try_from(...)`.
For the remaining TUI/app-server snapshot coverage that renders absolute
cwd values, keep the snapshots unchanged and skip the Windows-only cases
where the platform-specific absolute path layout differs.

- Changed `requires_mcp_tool_approval` to apply MCP spec defaults when
annotations are missing.
- Unannotated tools now default to:
- `readOnlyHint = false`
- `destructiveHint = true`
- `openWorldHint = true`
- This means unannotated MCP tools now go through approval/ARC
monitoring instead of silently bypassing it.
- Explicitly read-only tools still skip approval unless they are also
explicitly marked destructive.
**Previous behavior**
Failed open for missing annotations, which was unsafe for custom MCP
tools that omitted or forgot annotations.

## Description
Dependent on:
- [responsesapi] https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/760991
- [codex-backend] https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/760985
`codex app-server -> codex-backend -> responsesapi` now reuses a
persistent websocket connection across many turns. This PR updates
tracing when using websockets so that each `response.create` websocket
request propagates the current tracing context, so we can get a holistic
end-to-end trace for each turn.
Tracing is propagated via special keys (`ws_request_header_traceparent`,
`ws_request_header_tracestate`) set in the `client_metadata` param in
Responses API.
Currently tracing on websockets is a bit broken because we only set
tracing context on ws connection time, so it's detached from a
`turn/start` request.
## What is flaky
The Windows shell-driven integration tests in `codex-rs/core` were
intermittently unstable, especially:
- `apply_patch_cli_can_use_shell_command_output_as_patch_input`
- `websocket_test_codex_shell_chain`
- `websocket_v2_test_codex_shell_chain`
## Why it was flaky
These tests were exercising real shell-tool flows through whichever
shell Codex selected on Windows, and the `apply_patch` test also nested
a PowerShell read inside `cmd /c`.
There were multiple independent sources of nondeterminism in that setup:
- The test harness depended on the model-selected Windows shell instead
of pinning the shell it actually meant to exercise.
- `cmd.exe /c powershell.exe -Command "..."` is quoting-sensitive; on CI
that could leave the read command wrapped as a literal string instead of
executing it.
- Even after getting the quoting right, PowerShell could emit CLIXML
progress records like module-initialization output onto stdout.
- The `apply_patch` test was building a patch directly from shell
stdout, so any quoting artifact or progress noise corrupted the patch
input.
So the failures were driven by shell startup and output-shape variance,
not by the `apply_patch` or websocket logic themselves.
## How this PR fixes it
- Add a test-only `user_shell_override` path so Windows integration
tests can pin `cmd.exe` explicitly.
- Use that override in the websocket shell-chain tests and in the
`apply_patch` harness.
- Change the nested Windows file read in
`apply_patch_cli_can_use_shell_command_output_as_patch_input` to a UTF-8
PowerShell `-EncodedCommand` script.
- Run that nested PowerShell process with `-NonInteractive`, set
`$ProgressPreference = 'SilentlyContinue'`, and read the file with
`[System.IO.File]::ReadAllText(...)`.
## Why this fix fixes the flakiness
The outer harness now runs under a deterministic shell, and the inner
PowerShell read no longer depends on fragile `cmd` quoting or on
progress output staying quiet by accident. The shell tool returns only
the file contents, so patch construction and websocket assertions depend
on stable test inputs instead of on runner-specific shell behavior.

## Why
Once the repo-local lint exists, `codex-rs` needs to follow the
checked-in convention and CI needs to keep it from drifting. This commit
applies the fallback `/*param*/` style consistently across existing
positional literal call sites without changing those APIs.
The longer-term preference is still to avoid APIs that require comments
by choosing clearer parameter types and call shapes. This PR is
intentionally the mechanical follow-through for the places where the
existing signatures stay in place.
After rebasing onto newer `main`, the rollout also had to cover newly
introduced `tui_app_server` call sites. That made it clear the first cut
of the CI job was too expensive for the common path: it was spending
almost as much time installing `cargo-dylint` and re-testing the lint
crate as a representative test job spends running product tests. The CI
update keeps the full workspace enforcement but trims that extra
overhead from ordinary `codex-rs` PRs.
## What changed
- keep a dedicated `argument_comment_lint` job in `rust-ci`
- mechanically annotate remaining opaque positional literals across
`codex-rs` with exact `/*param*/` comments, including the rebased
`tui_app_server` call sites that now fall under the lint
- keep the checked-in style aligned with the lint policy by using
`/*param*/` and leaving string and char literals uncommented
- cache `cargo-dylint`, `dylint-link`, and the relevant Cargo
registry/git metadata in the lint job
- split changed-path detection so the lint crate's own `cargo test` step
runs only when `tools/argument-comment-lint/*` or `rust-ci.yml` changes
- continue to run the repo wrapper over the `codex-rs` workspace, so
product-code enforcement is unchanged
Most of the code changes in this commit are intentionally mechanical
comment rewrites or insertions driven by the lint itself.
## Verification
- `./tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh --workspace`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui-app-server -p codex-tui`
- parsed `.github/workflows/rust-ci.yml` locally with PyYAML

- [x] Bypass tool search and stuff tool specs directly into model
context when either a. Tool search is not available for the model or b.
There are not that many tools to search for.
Move the general `Apps`, `Skills` and `Plugins` instructions blocks out
of `user_instructions` and into the developer message, with new `Apps ->
Skills -> Plugins` order for better clarity.
Also wrap those sections in stable XML-style instruction tags (like
other sections) and update prompt-layout tests/snapshots. This makes the
tests less brittle in snapshot output (we can parse the sections), and
it consolidates the capability instructions in one place.
#### Tests
Updated snapshots, added tests.
`<AGENTS_MD>` disappearing in snapshots is expected: before this change,
the wrapped user-instructions message was kept alive by `Skills`
content. Now that `Skills` and `Plugins` are in the developer message,
that wrapper only appears when there is real
project-doc/user-instructions content.

We regularly get bug reports from users who mistakenly have the
`OPENAI_BASE_URL` environment variable set. This PR deprecates this
environment variable in favor of a top-level config key
`openai_base_url` that is used for the same purpose. By making it a
config key, it will be more visible to users. It will also participate
in all of the infrastructure we've added for layered and managed
configs.
Summary
- introduce the `openai_base_url` top-level config key, update
schema/tests, and route the built-in openai provider through it while
- fall back to deprecated `OPENAI_BASE_URL` env var but warn user of
deprecation when no `openai_base_url` config key is present
- update CLI, SDK, and TUI code to prefer the new config path (with a
deprecated env-var fallback) and document the SDK behavior change
## Summary
This PR keeps app-server RPC request trace context alive for the full
lifetime of the work that request kicks off (e.g. for `thread/start`,
this is `app-server rpc handler -> tokio background task -> core op
submissions`). Previously we lose trace lineage once the request handler
returns or hands work off to background tasks.
This approach is especially relevant for `thread/start` and other RPC
handlers that run in a non-blocking way. In the near future we'll most
likely want to make all app-server handlers run in a non-blocking way by
default, and only queue operations that must operate in order (e.g.
thread RPCs per thread?), so we want to make sure tracing in app-server
just generally works.

## What changed
- Keep request-scoped trace context around until we send the final
response or error, or the connection closes.
- Thread that trace context through detached `thread/start` work so
background startup stays attached to the originating request.
- Pass request trace context through to downstream core operations,
including:
- thread creation
- resume/fork flows
- turn submission
- review
- interrupt
- realtime conversation operations
- Add tracing tests that verify:
- remote W3C trace context is preserved for `thread/start`
- remote W3C trace context is preserved for `turn/start`
- downstream core spans stay under the originating request span
- request-scoped tracing state is cleaned up correctly
- Clean up shutdown behavior so detached background tasks and spawned
threads are drained before process exit.
## Why
to support a new bring your own search tool in Responses
API(https://developers.openai.com/api/docs/guides/tools-tool-search#client-executed-tool-search)
we migrating our bm25 search tool to use official way to execute search
on client and communicate additional tools to the model.
## What
- replace the legacy `search_tool_bm25` flow with client-executed
`tool_search`
- add protocol, SSE, history, and normalization support for
`tool_search_call` and `tool_search_output`
- return namespaced Codex Apps search results and wire namespaced
follow-up tool calls back into MCP dispatch
## What changed
- Drop failed websocket connections immediately after a terminal stream
error instead of awaiting a graceful close handshake before forwarding
the error to the caller.
- Keep the success path and the closed-connection guard behavior
unchanged.
## Why this fixes the flake
- The failing integration test waits for the second websocket stream to
surface the model error before issuing a follow-up request.
- On slower runners, the old error path awaited
`ws_stream.close().await` before sending the error downstream. If that
close handshake stalled, the test kept waiting for an error that had
already happened server-side and nextest timed it out.
- Dropping the failed websocket immediately makes the terminal error
observable right away and marks the session closed so the next request
reconnects cleanly instead of depending on a best-effort close
handshake.
## Code or test?
- This is a production logic fix in `codex-api`. The existing websocket
integration test already exercises the regression path.
## Summary
#13910 was merged with some unused imports, let's fix this
## Testing
- [x] Let's make sure CI is green
