###### Summary
- Add client-visible 401 diagnostics for auth attachment, upstream auth classification, and 401 request id / cf-ray correlation.
- Record unauthorized recovery mode, phase, outcome, and retry/follow-up status without changing auth behavior.
- Surface the highest-signal auth and recovery fields on uploaded client bug reports so they are usable in Sentry.
- Preserve original unauthorized evidence under `auth_401_*` while keeping follow-up result tags separate.
###### Rationale (from spec findings)
- The dominant bucket needed proof of whether the client attached auth before send or upstream still classified the request as missing auth.
- Client uploads needed to show whether unauthorized recovery ran and what the client tried next.
- Request id and cf-ray needed to be preserved on the unauthorized response so server-side correlation is immediate.
- The bug-report path needed the same auth evidence as the request telemetry path, otherwise the observability would not be operationally useful.
###### Scope
- Add auth 401 and unauthorized-recovery observability in `codex-rs/core`, `codex-rs/codex-api`, and `codex-rs/otel`, including feedback-tag surfacing.
- Keep auth semantics, refresh behavior, retry behavior, endpoint classification, and geo-denial follow-up work out of this PR.
###### Trade-offs
- This exports only safe auth evidence: header presence/name, upstream auth classification, request ids, and recovery state. It does not export token values or raw upstream bodies.
- This keeps websocket connection reuse as a transport clue because it can help distinguish stale reused sessions from fresh reconnects.
- Misroute/base-url classification and geo-denial are intentionally deferred to a separate follow-up PR so this review stays focused on the dominant auth 401 bucket.
###### Client follow-up
- PR 2 will add misroute/provider and geo-denial observability plus the matching feedback-tag surfacing.
- A separate host/app-server PR should log auth-decision inputs so pre-send host auth state can be correlated with client request evidence.
- `device_id` remains intentionally separate until there is a safe existing source on the feedback upload path.
###### Testing

## Summary
This is a purely mechanical refactor of `OtelManager` ->
`SessionTelemetry` to better convey what the struct is doing. No
behavior change.
## Why
`OtelManager` ended up sounding much broader than what this type
actually does. It doesn't manage OTEL globally; it's the session-scoped
telemetry surface for emitting log/trace events and recording metrics
with consistent session metadata (`app_version`, `model`, `slug`,
`originator`, etc.).
`SessionTelemetry` is a more accurate name, and updating the call sites
makes that boundary a lot easier to follow.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-otel`
- `cargo test -p codex-core`
### Summary
This adds turn-level latency metrics for the first model output and the
first completed agent message.
- `codex.turn.ttft.duration_ms` starts at turn start and records on the
first output signal we see from the model. That includes normal
assistant text, reasoning deltas, and non-text outputs like tool-call
items.
- `codex.turn.ttfm.duration_ms` also starts at turn start, but it
records when the first agent message finishes streaming rather than when
its first delta arrives.
### Implementation notes
The timing is tracked in codex-core, not app-server, so the definition
stays consistent across CLI, TUI, and app-server clients.
I reused the existing turn lifecycle boundary that already drives
`codex.turn.e2e_duration_ms`, stored the turn start timestamp in turn
state, and record each metric once per turn.
I also wired the new metric names into the OTEL runtime metrics summary
so they show up in the same in-memory/debug snapshot path as the
existing timing metrics.
Summary
- capture the origin for each configured MCP server and expose it via
the connection manager
- plumb MCP server name/origin into tool logging and emit
codex.tool_result events with those fields
- add unit coverage for origin parsing and extend OTEL tests to assert
empty MCP fields for non-MCP tools
- currently not logging full urls or url paths to prevent logging
potentially sensitive data
Testing
- Not run (not requested)
So that the rest of the codebase (like TUI) don't need to be concerned
whether ChatGPT auth was handled by Codex itself or passed in via
app-server's external auth mode.
Summary
- expose websocket telemetry hooks through the responses client so
request durations and event processing can be reported
- record websocket request/event metrics and emit runtime telemetry
events that the history UI now surfaces
- improve tests to cover websocket telemetry reporting and guard runtime
