Remove CODEX_PYTHON_RUNTIME_VERSION from the repo bootstrap path and always provision the checked-in pinned codex-cli-bin runtime version for examples, notebook, and real integration coverage. This keeps repo-source Python execution aligned with one binary contract, rewires the real integration harness and notebook bootstrap to use the pinned runtime directly, and updates the docs to describe automatic pinned-runtime provisioning instead of env-driven overrides.

Python SDK Examples
Each example folder contains runnable versions:
sync.py(public sync surface:Codex)async.py(public async surface:AsyncCodex)
All examples intentionally use only public SDK exports from codex_app_server.
Prerequisites
- Python
>=3.10 - Install SDK dependencies for the same Python interpreter you will use to run examples
Recommended setup (from sdk/python):
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install -U pip
python -m pip install -e .
When running examples from this repo checkout, the SDK source uses the local
tree and does not bundle a runtime binary. The helper in examples/_bootstrap.py
uses the installed codex-cli-bin runtime package.
If the pinned codex-cli-bin runtime is not already installed, the bootstrap
will download the matching GitHub release artifact, stage a temporary local
codex-cli-bin package, install it into your active interpreter, and clean up
the temporary files afterward.
Current pinned runtime version: 0.115.0-alpha.11
Run examples
From sdk/python:
python examples/<example-folder>/sync.py
python examples/<example-folder>/async.py
The examples bootstrap local imports from sdk/python/src automatically, so no
SDK wheel install is required. You only need the Python dependencies for your
active interpreter and an installed codex-cli-bin runtime package (either
already present or automatically provisioned by the bootstrap).
