## Why
The app-server no longer needs to expose a TCP websocket listener.
Keeping that transport also kept around a separate listener/auth surface
that is unnecessary now that local clients can use stdio or the
Unix-domain control socket, while remote connectivity is handled by
`remote_control`.
## What Changed
- Removed `ws://IP:PORT` parsing and the `AppServerTransport::WebSocket`
startup path.
- Deleted the app-server websocket listener auth module and removed
related CLI flags/dependencies.
- Kept websocket framing only where it is still needed: over the
Unix-domain control socket and in the outbound `remote_control`
connection.
- Updated app-server CLI/help text and `app-server/README.md` to
document only `stdio://`, `unix://`, `unix://PATH`, and `off` for local
transports.
- Converted affected app-server integration coverage from TCP websocket
listeners to UDS-backed websocket connections, and added a parse test
that rejects `ws://` listen URLs.
- Removed the now-unused workspace `constant_time_eq` dependency and
refreshed `Cargo.lock` after `cargo shear` caught the drift.
- Moved test app-server UDS socket paths to short Unix temp paths so
macOS Bazel test sandboxes do not exceed Unix socket path limits.
## Verification
- Added/updated tests around UDS websocket transport behavior and
`ws://` listen URL rejection.
- `cargo shear`
- `cargo metadata --no-deps --format-version 1`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server unix_socket_transport`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server unix_socket_disconnect`
- `just fix -p codex-app-server`
- `git diff --check`
Local full Rust test execution was blocked before compilation by an
external fetch failure for the pinned `nornagon/crossterm` git
dependency. `just bazel-lock-update` and `just bazel-lock-check` were
retried after the manifest cleanup but remain blocked by external
BuildBuddy/V8 fetch timeouts.
* Pass installation ID for storage on enrollments server for
deduping/grouping multiple appservers per installation
* Pass installation ID in remoteControl/status/changed events
## Why
`codex-app-server` currently owns both request-processing code and
transport implementation details. Splitting the transport layer into its
own crate makes that boundary explicit, reduces the amount of
transport-specific dependency surface carried by `codex-app-server`, and
gives future transport work a narrower place to evolve.
## What changed
- Added `codex-app-server-transport` and moved the existing transport
tree into it, including stdio, unix socket, websocket, remote-control
transport, and websocket auth.
- Moved shared transport-facing message types into the new crate so both
the transport implementation and `codex-app-server` use the same
definitions.
- Kept processor-facing connection state and outbound routing in
`codex-app-server`, with the routing tests moved next to that local
wrapper.
- Updated workspace metadata, Bazel crate metadata, and
`codex-app-server` dependencies for the new crate boundary.
## Validation
- `cargo metadata --locked --no-deps`
- `git diff --check`
- Attempted `cargo test -p codex-app-server-transport`, `cargo test -p
codex-app-server`, `just fix -p codex-app-server-transport`, and `just
fix -p codex-app-server`; all were blocked before compilation by the
existing `packageproxy` resolution failure for locked `rustls-webpki =
0.103.13`.
- Attempted Bazel build / lockfile validation; those were blocked by
external fetch failures against BuildBuddy / GitHub while resolving
`v8`.
