## Why
The Python and TypeScript SDKs launch the native Codex runtime directly,
so they need to consume the same package artifact shape that release
jobs now produce. The runtime wheel should be built from the canonical
Codex package archive rather than reconstructing a parallel layout from
loose binaries.
## What Changed
- Stage `openai-codex-cli-bin` by extracting
`codex-package-<target>.tar.gz` into `src/codex_cli_bin` and validating
the expected package layout.
- Update release workflows to pass the generated package archive into
`stage-runtime` instead of the temporary package directory.
- Update Python runtime setup to download `codex-package-*.tar.gz`
release assets directly.
- Expose Python runtime helpers for the bundled package directory and
`codex-path`, and prepend that path when `openai_codex` launches the
installed runtime without duplicating Windows `Path`/`PATH` keys.
- Teach the TypeScript SDK to resolve package-layout optional
dependencies while keeping the existing npm fallback layout, and
preserve the existing Windows path variable casing when prepending
`codex-path`.

## Summary
This PR hardens package-manager usage across the repo to reduce
dependency supply-chain risk. It also removes the stale `codex-cli`
Docker path, which was already broken on `main`, instead of keeping a
bitrotted container workflow alive.
## What changed
- Updated pnpm package manager pins and workspace install settings.
- Removed stale `codex-cli` Docker assets instead of trying to keep a
broken local container path alive.
- Added uv settings and lockfiles for the Python SDK packages.
- Updated Python SDK setup docs to use `uv sync`.
## Why
This is primarily a security hardening change. It reduces
package-install and supply-chain risk by ensuring dependency installs go
through pinned package managers, committed lockfiles, release-age
settings, and reviewed build-script controls.
For `codex-cli`, the right follow-up was to remove the local Docker path
rather than keep patching it:
- `codex-cli/Dockerfile` installed `codex.tgz` with `npm install -g`,
which bypassed the repo lockfile and age-gated pnpm settings.
- The local `codex-cli/scripts/build_container.sh` helper was already
broken on `main`: it called `pnpm run build`, but
`codex-cli/package.json` does not define a `build` script.
- The container path itself had bitrotted enough that keeping it would
require extra packaging-specific behavior that was not otherwise needed
by the repo.
## Gaps addressed
- Global npm installs bypassed the repo lockfile in Docker and CLI
reinstall paths, including `codex-cli/Dockerfile` and
`codex-cli/bin/codex.js`.
- CI and Docker pnpm installs used `--frozen-lockfile`, but the repo was
missing stricter pnpm workspace settings for dependency build scripts.
- Python SDK projects had `pyproject.toml` metadata but no committed
`uv.lock` coverage or uv age/index settings in `sdk/python` and
`sdk/python-runtime`.
- The secure devcontainer install path used npm/global install behavior
without a local locked package-manager boundary.
- The local `codex-cli` Docker helper was already broken on `main`, so
this PR removes that stale Docker path instead of preserving a broken
surface.
- pnpm was already pinned, but not to the current repo-wide pnpm version
target.
## Verification
- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`
- `.devcontainer/codex-install`: `pnpm install --prod --frozen-lockfile`
- `.devcontainer/codex-install`: `./node_modules/.bin/codex --version`
- `sdk/python`: `uv lock --check`, `uv sync --locked --all-extras
--dry-run`, `uv build`
- `sdk/python-runtime`: `uv lock --check`, `uv sync --locked --dry-run`,
`uv build --wheel`
- `pnpm -r --filter ./sdk/typescript run build`
- `pnpm -r --filter ./sdk/typescript run lint`
- `pnpm -r --filter ./sdk/typescript run test`
- `node --check codex-cli/bin/codex.js`
- `docker build -f .devcontainer/Dockerfile.secure -t codex-secure-test
.`
- `cargo build -p codex-cli`
- repo-wide package-manager audit
This is PR 2 of the Python SDK PyPI publishing split. [PR
1](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18862) refreshed the generated
SDK bindings; this PR makes the runtime package itself publishable, and
PR 3 will wire the SDK package/version pinning to this runtime package.
## Summary
- Rename the runtime distribution to `openai-codex-cli-bin` while
keeping the import package as `codex_cli_bin`.
- Make the runtime package wheel-only and build `py3-none-<platform>`
wheels instead of interpreter-specific wheels.
- Add `stage-runtime --codex-version` and `--platform-tag` so release
staging can produce the platform wheel matrix from Codex release tags.
- Add focused artifact workflow tests for version normalization,
platform tag injection, and runtime wheel metadata.
## Why Rename
There is already an unofficial PyPI package,
[`codex-bin`](https://pypi.org/project/codex-bin/), distributing OpenAI
Codex binaries. Publishing the official SDK runtime dependency as
`openai-codex-cli-bin` makes the ownership clear, avoids confusing the
SDK-pinned runtime wheel with that unowned wrapper, and keeps the import
package unchanged as `codex_cli_bin`.
## Tests
- `uv run --extra dev pytest
tests/test_artifact_workflow_and_binaries.py` -> 21 passed
- `uv run --extra dev python scripts/update_sdk_artifacts.py
stage-runtime /tmp/codex-python-pr2-rebased/runtime-stage
/tmp/codex-python-pr2-rebased/codex --codex-version
rust-v0.116.0-alpha.1 --platform-tag macosx_11_0_arm64`
- `uv run --with build --extra dev python -m build --wheel
/tmp/codex-python-pr2-rebased/runtime-stage`
- `uv run --with twine --extra dev twine check
/tmp/codex-python-pr2-rebased/runtime-stage/dist/openai_codex_cli_bin-0.116.0a1-py3-none-macosx_11_0_arm64.whl`
## Note
- Full `uv run --extra dev pytest` currently fails because regenerating
from schemas already on `main` adds new DeviceKey Python types. I left
that generated catch-up out of this runtime-only PR.
## TL;DR
Bring the Python app-server SDK from `main-with-prs-13953-and-14232`
onto current `main` as a standalone SDK-only PR.
- adds the new `sdk/python` and `sdk/python-runtime` package trees
- keeps the scope to the SDK payload only, without the unrelated
branch-history or workflow changes from the source branch
- regenerates `sdk/python/src/codex_app_server/generated/v2_all.py`
against current `main` schema so the extracted SDK matches today's
protocol definitions
## Validation
- `PYTHONPATH=sdk/python/src python3 -m pytest sdk/python/tests`
