feat: change the behavior of SetDefaultModel RPC so None clears the value. (#3529 )

It turns out that we want slightly different behavior for the
`SetDefaultModel` RPC because some models do not work with reasoning
(like GPT-4.1), so we should be able to explicitly clear this value.

Verified in `codex-rs/mcp-server/tests/suite/set_default_model.rs`.

feat: added SetDefaultModel to JSON-RPC server (#3512 )

This adds `SetDefaultModel`, which takes `model` and `reasoning_effort`
as optional fields. If set, the field will overwrite what is in the
user's `config.toml`.

This reuses logic that was added to support the `/model` command in the
TUI: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/2799.

feat: include reasoning_effort in NewConversationResponse (#3506 )

`ClientRequest::NewConversation` picks up the reasoning level from the user's defaults in `config.toml`, so it should be reported in `NewConversationResponse`.

Simplify auth flow and reconcile differences between ChatGPT and API Key auth (#3189 )

This PR does the following:
* Adds the ability to paste or type an API key.
* Removes the `preferred_auth_method` config option. The last login
method is always persisted in auth.json, so this isn't needed.
* If OPENAI_API_KEY env variable is defined, the value is used to
prepopulate the new UI. The env variable is otherwise ignored by the
CLI.
* Adds a new MCP server entry point "login_api_key" so we can implement
this same API key behavior for the VS Code extension.

feat: add UserInfo request to JSON-RPC server (#3428 )

This adds a simple endpoint that provides the email address encoded in
`$CODEX_HOME/auth.json`.

As noted, for now, we do not hit the server to verify this is the user's
true email address.

Improved resiliency of two auth-related tests (#3427 )

This PR improves two existing auth-related tests. They were failing when
run in an environment where an `OPENAI_API_KEY` env variable was
defined. The change makes them more resilient.

Replace config.responses_originator_header_internal_override with CODEX_INTERNAL_ORIGINATOR_OVERRIDE_ENV_VAR (#3388 )

The previous config approach had a few issues:
1. It is part of the config but not designed to be used externally
2. It had to be wired through many places (look at the +/- on this PR
3. It wasn't guaranteed to be set consistently everywhere because we
don't have a super well defined way that configs stack. For example, the
extension would configure during newConversation but anything that
happened outside of that (like login) wouldn't get it.

This env var approach is cleaner and also creates one less thing we have
to deal with when coming up with a better holistic story around configs.

One downside is that I removed the unit test testing for the override
because I don't want to deal with setting the global env or spawning
child processes and figuring out how to introspect their originator
header. The new code is sufficiently simple and I tested it e2e that I
feel as if this is still worth it.

feat: add ArchiveConversation to ClientRequest (#3353 )

Adds support for `ArchiveConversation` in the JSON-RPC server that takes
a `(ConversationId, PathBuf)` pair and:

- verifies the `ConversationId` corresponds to the rollout id at the
`PathBuf`
- if so, invokes
`ConversationManager.remove_conversation(ConversationId)`
- if the `CodexConversation` was in memory, send `Shutdown` and wait for
`ShutdownComplete` with a timeout
- moves the `.jsonl` file to `$CODEX_HOME/archived_sessions`

fix: include rollout_path in NewConversationResponse (#3352 )

Adding the `rollout_path` to the `NewConversationResponse` makes it so a
client can perform subsequent operations on a `(ConversationId,
PathBuf)` pair. #3353 will introduce support for `ArchiveConversation`.

Generate more typescript types and return conversation id with ConversationSummary (#3219 )

This PR does multiple things that are necessary for conversation resume
to work from the extension. I wanted to make sure everything worked so
these changes wound up in one PR:
1. Generate more ts types
2. Resume rollout history files rather than create a new one every time
it is resumed so you don't see a duplicate conversation in history for
every resume. Chatted with @aibrahim-oai to verify this
3. Return conversation_id in conversation summaries
4. [Cleanup] Use serde and strong types for a lot of the rollout file
parsing

Use ConversationId instead of raw Uuids (#3282 )

We're trying to migrate from `session_id: Uuid` to `conversation_id:
ConversationId`. Not only does this give us more type safety but it
unifies our terminology across Codex and with the implementation of
session resuming, a conversation (which can span multiple sessions) is
more appropriate.

I started this impl on https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/3219 as part
of getting resume working in the extension but it's big enough that it
should be broken out.

Never store requests (#3212 )

When item ids are sent to Responses API it will load them from the
database ignoring the provided values. This adds extra latency.

Not having the mode to store requests also allows us to simplify the
code.

## Breaking change

The `disable_response_storage` configuration option is removed.

[mcp-server] Update read config interface (#3093 )

## Summary
Follow-up to #3056

This PR updates the mcp-server interface for reading the config settings
saved by the user. At risk of introducing _another_ Config struct, I
think it makes sense to avoid tying our protocol to ConfigToml, as its
become a bit unwieldy. GetConfigTomlResponse was a de-facto struct for
this already - better to make it explicit, in my opinion.

This is technically a breaking change of the mcp-server protocol, but
given the previous interface was introduced so recently in #2725, and we
have not yet even started to call it, I propose proceeding with the
breaking change - but am open to preserving the old endpoint.

## Testing
- [x] Added additional integration test coverage

chore: try to make it easier to debug the flakiness of test_shell_command_approval_triggers_elicitation (#2848 )

`test_shell_command_approval_triggers_elicitation()` is one of a number
of integration tests that we have observed to be flaky on GitHub CI, so
this PR tries to reduce the flakiness _and_ to provide us with more
information when it flakes. Specifically:

- Changed the command that we use to trigger the elicitation from `git
init` to `python3 -c 'import pathlib; pathlib.Path(r"{}").touch()'`
because running `git` seems more likely to invite variance.
- Increased the timeout to wait for the task response from 10s to 20s.
- Added more logging.

test: faster test execution in codex-core (#2633 )

this dramatically improves time to run `cargo test -p codex-core` (~25x
speedup).

before:
```
cargo test -p codex-core  35.96s user 68.63s system 19% cpu 8:49.80 total
```

after:
```
cargo test -p codex-core  5.51s user 8.16s system 63% cpu 21.407 total
```

both tests measured "hot", i.e. on a 2nd run with no filesystem changes,
to exclude compile times.

approach inspired by [Delete Cargo Integration
Tests](https://matklad.github.io/2021/02/27/delete-cargo-integration-tests.html),
we move all test cases in tests/ into a single suite in order to have a
single binary, as there is significant overhead for each test binary
executed, and because test execution is only parallelized with a single
binary.
