## Why
The Python SDK needs the same tight formatter/lint loop as the rest of
the repo: a safe Ruff autofix pass, Ruff formatting, editor save
behavior, and CI checks that catch drift. Without that loop, SDK changes
can land with formatting or import ordering that differs from what
reviewers and CI expect.
## What
- Add Ruff configuration to `sdk/python/pyproject.toml`, excluding
generated protocol code and notebooks from the normal lint/format pass.
- Update `just fmt` so it still formats Rust and also runs Python SDK
Ruff autofix and formatting.
- Add Python SDK CI steps for `ruff check` and `ruff format --check`
before pytest.
- Recommend the Ruff VS Code extension and enable Python
format/fix/organize-on-save so Cmd+S uses the same tooling.
- Apply the resulting Ruff formatting to SDK Python files, examples, and
the checked-in generated `v2_all.py` output emitted by the pinned
generator.
- Add a guard test for the `just fmt` recipe so it keeps working from
both Rust and Python SDK working directories.

## Why
The SDK had behavioral tests that replaced SDK client internals. Those
tests could catch wrapper mistakes, but they did not prove the pinned
app-server runtime, generated notification models, request routing, and
sync/async public clients worked together.
This PR adds deterministic integration coverage that starts the pinned
`codex app-server` process and mocks only the upstream Responses HTTP
boundary.
## What
- Add `AppServerHarness` and `MockResponsesServer` helpers for isolated
`CODEX_HOME`, mock-provider config, queued SSE responses, and captured
`/v1/responses` requests.
- Add shared helpers for SSE construction, stream assertions,
approval-policy inspection, and image fixtures.
- Split integration coverage into focused modules for run behavior,
inputs, streaming, turn controls, approvals, and thread lifecycle.
- Cover sync and async `Thread.run`, `TurnHandle.stream`, interleaved
streams, approval-mode persistence, lifecycle helpers, final-answer
phase handling, image inputs, loaded skill input injection, steering,
interruption, listing, history reads, run overrides, and token usage
mapping.
- Replace public-wrapper tests that duplicated integration-test behavior
with lower-level client tests only where direct client behavior is the
thing under test.

## Why
The high-level SDK should expose the approval behavior it actually
supports instead of leaking generated app-server routing fields. New
work should have two clear choices: default auto review, or explicitly
deny escalated permission requests. Existing threads and subsequent
turns should preserve their current approval behavior unless the caller
passes an override.
## What
- Add the public `ApprovalMode` enum with `auto_review` and `deny_all`.
- Default new thread creation to `ApprovalMode.auto_review`.
- Preserve existing approval settings by default for resume, fork, run,
and turn helpers.
- Remove raw `approval_policy` / `approvals_reviewer` kwargs from
high-level SDK wrappers.
- Update generated wrapper output, docs, examples, notebooks, and tests
for the high-level approval mode API.

## Why
The SDK should publish under the reserved public distribution name
`openai-codex`, and its import module should match that name in the
Python style. Since package names can contain hyphens but import modules
cannot, the public import path becomes `openai_codex`.
Keeping the rename separate from the public API surface change makes the
naming change easy to review and avoids mixing it with API curation.
## What
- Rename the SDK distribution from `openai-codex-app-server-sdk` to
`openai-codex`.
- Rename the import package from `codex_app_server` to `openai_codex`.
- Keep the runtime wheel as the separate `openai-codex-cli-bin`
dependency.
- Update docs, examples, notebooks, artifact scripts, lockfile metadata,
and tests for the new distribution/module names.

## Why
Once the SDK declares its runtime package, generated Python artifacts
should come from that pinned runtime rather than whatever app-server
schema happens to be in the current checkout. That keeps the generated
API and model surface aligned with the runtime users install.
## What
- Teach `scripts/update_sdk_artifacts.py generate-types` to invoke the
pinned runtime package for schema generation.
- Regenerate `v2_all.py`, `notification_registry.py`, and generated
public wrapper methods from that schema.
- Add freshness coverage so regenerating from the pinned runtime must
leave checked-in artifacts unchanged.

## Why
The Python SDK depends on the app-server runtime package for the bundled
`codex` binary and schema source of truth. That relationship should be
explicit in package metadata instead of inferred from matching version
numbers, so installers, lockfiles, and reviewers can see exactly which
runtime the SDK expects.
## What
- Declare `openai-codex-cli-bin==0.131.0a4` as a Python SDK dependency.
- Update runtime setup helpers to resolve the runtime version from the
declared dependency pin.
- Refresh the SDK lockfile for the pinned runtime wheel.
- Update package/runtime tests and docs that describe where the runtime
version comes from.

## Why
The Python SDK previously protected the stdio transport with a single
active turn-consumer guard. That avoided competing reads from stdout,
but it also meant one `Codex`/`AsyncCodex` client could not stream
multiple active turns at the same time. Notifications could also arrive
before the caller received a `TurnHandle` and registered for streaming,
so the SDK needed an explicit routing layer instead of letting
individual API calls read directly from the shared transport.
## What Changed
- Added a private `MessageRouter` that owns per-request response queues,
per-turn notification queues, pending turn-notification replay, and
global notification delivery behind a single stdout reader thread.
- Generated typed notification routing metadata so turn IDs come from
known payload shapes instead of router-side attribute guessing, with
explicit fallback handling for unknown notification payloads.
- Updated sync and async turn streaming so `TurnHandle.stream()`/`run()`
and `stream_text()` consume only notifications for their own turn ID,
while `AsyncAppServerClient` no longer serializes all transport calls
behind one async lock.
- Cleared pending turn-notification buffers when unregistered turns
complete so never-consumed turn handles do not leave stale queues
behind.
- Removed the internal stream-until helper now that turn completion
waiting can register directly with routed turn notifications.
- Updated Python SDK docs and focused tests for concurrent transport
calls, interleaved turn routing, buffered early notifications, unknown
notification routing, async delegation, and routed turn completion
behavior.

## TL;DR
Add `thread.run(...)` / `async thread.run(...)` convenience methods to
the Python SDK for the common case.
- add `RunInput = Input | str` and `RunResult` with `final_response`,
collected `items`, and optional `usage`
- keep `thread.turn(...)` strict and lower-level for streaming,
steering, interrupting, and raw generated `Turn` access
- update Python SDK docs, quickstart examples, and tests for the sync
and async convenience flows

## TL;DR
WIP esp the examples
Thin the Python SDK public surface so the wrapper layer returns
canonical app-server generated models directly.
- keeps `Codex` / `AsyncCodex` / `Thread` / `Turn` and input helpers,
but removes alias-only type layers and custom result models
- `metadata` now returns `InitializeResponse` and `run()` returns the
generated app-server `Turn`
- updates docs, examples, notebook, and tests to use canonical generated
types and regenerates `v2_all.py` against current schema
- keeps the pinned runtime-package integration flow and real integration
coverage
## Validation
- `PYTHONPATH=sdk/python/src python3 -m pytest sdk/python/tests`
- `GH_TOKEN="$(gh auth token)" RUN_REAL_CODEX_TESTS=1
PYTHONPATH=sdk/python/src python3 -m pytest sdk/python/tests -rs`
