## Why
The Python SDK can already create threads and run turns, but
authentication still has to be arranged outside the SDK. App-server
already exposes account login, account inspection, logout, and
`account/login/completed` notifications, so SDK users currently have to
work around a missing public client layer for a core setup step.
This change makes authentication a normal SDK workflow while preserving
the backend flow shape: API-key login completes immediately, and
interactive ChatGPT flows return live handles that complete later
through app-server notifications.
## What changed
- Added public sync and async auth methods on `Codex` / `AsyncCodex`:
- `login_api_key(...)`
- `login_chatgpt()`
- `login_chatgpt_device_code()`
- `account(...)`
- `logout()`
- Added public browser-login and device-code handle types with
attempt-local `wait()` and `cancel()` helpers. Cancellation stays on the
handle instead of a root-level SDK method.
- Extended the Python app-server client and notification router so login
completion events are routed by `login_id` without consuming unrelated
global notifications.
- Kept login request/handle logic in a focused internal `_login.py`
module so `api.py` remains the public facade instead of absorbing more
auth plumbing.
- Exported the new handle types plus curated account/login response
types from the SDK surfaces.
- Updated SDK docs, added sync/async login walkthrough examples, and
added a notebook login walkthrough cell.
## Verification
Added SDK coverage for:
- API-key login, account readback, and logout through the app-server
harness in both sync and async clients.
- Browser login cancellation plus `handle.wait()` completion through the
real app-server boundary used by the Python SDK harness.
- Waiter routing that stays scoped across replaced interactive login
attempts, plus async handle cancellation coverage.
- Login notification demuxing, replay of early completion events, and
async client delegation.
- Public export/signature assertions.
- Real integration-suite smoke coverage for the new examples and
notebook login cell.
## Summary
- Move approval-mode mapping into
`sdk/python/src/openai_codex/_approval_mode.py`.
- Move initialize metadata parsing and normalization into
`sdk/python/src/openai_codex/_initialize_metadata.py`.
- Keep the public `ApprovalMode` export stable and retarget direct
metadata helper coverage.
## Integration coverage
- Add an app-server harness smoke that exercises sync and async SDK
initialization plus thread creation.
## Validation
- Local tests were not run per repo guidance. CI should validate this
branch once the PR is online.
## Summary
- Remove maintainer and release-process wording from the Python SDK
README and docs.
- Rewrite SDK-facing comments/docstrings so they read as standalone
product documentation.
- Add a real app-server integration smoke that follows the public
quickstart-style `Codex() -> thread_start() -> run()` path.
## Integration coverage
- Add `test_real_quickstart_style_flow_smoke` in the real app-server
integration suite.
## Validation
- Local tests were not run per repo guidance. CI should validate this
branch once the PR is online.
## 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 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.
