## 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. ## Stack 1. #21891 `[1/8]` Pin Python SDK runtime dependency 2. #21893 `[2/8]` Generate Python SDK types from pinned runtime 3. #21895 `[3/8]` Run Python SDK tests in CI 4. #21896 `[4/8]` Define Python SDK public API surface 5.

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 openai_codex
and openai_codex.types.
Prerequisites
- Python
>=3.10 - Install SDK dependencies for the same Python interpreter you will use to run examples
Recommended setup (from sdk/python):
uv sync
source .venv/bin/activate
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 openai-codex-cli-bin runtime package.
If the pinned openai-codex-cli-bin runtime is not already installed, the bootstrap
will download the matching GitHub release artifact, stage a temporary local
openai-codex-cli-bin package, install it into your active interpreter, and clean up
the temporary files afterward.
The pinned runtime version comes from the SDK package dependency.
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 openai-codex-cli-bin runtime package (either
already present or automatically provisioned by the bootstrap).
