## Why
`argument-comment-lint` was green in CI even though the repo still had
many uncommented literal arguments. The main gap was target coverage:
the repo wrapper did not force Cargo to inspect test-only call sites, so
examples like the `latest_session_lookup_params(true, ...)` tests in
`codex-rs/tui_app_server/src/lib.rs` never entered the blocking CI path.
This change cleans up the existing backlog, makes the default repo lint
path cover all Cargo targets, and starts rolling that stricter CI
enforcement out on the platform where it is currently validated.
## What changed
- mechanically fixed existing `argument-comment-lint` violations across
the `codex-rs` workspace, including tests, examples, and benches
- updated `tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh` and
`tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh` so non-`--fix` runs default to
`--all-targets` unless the caller explicitly narrows the target set
- fixed both wrappers so forwarded cargo arguments after `--` are
preserved with a single separator
- documented the new default behavior in
`tools/argument-comment-lint/README.md`
- updated `rust-ci` so the macOS lint lane keeps the plain wrapper
invocation and therefore enforces `--all-targets`, while Linux and
Windows temporarily pass `-- --lib --bins`
That temporary CI split keeps the stricter all-targets check where it is
already cleaned up, while leaving room to finish the remaining Linux-
and Windows-specific target-gated cleanup before enabling
`--all-targets` on those runners. The Linux and Windows failures on the
intermediate revision were caused by the wrapper forwarding bug, not by
additional lint findings in those lanes.
## Validation
- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run.sh`
- `bash -n tools/argument-comment-lint/run-prebuilt-linter.sh`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --lib --bins`
- shell-level wrapper forwarding check for `-- --tests`
- `just argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test` in `tools/argument-comment-lint`
- `cargo test -p codex-terminal-detection`
## Follow-up
- Clean up remaining Linux-only target-gated callsites, then switch the
Linux lint lane back to the plain wrapper invocation.
- Clean up remaining Windows-only target-gated callsites, then switch
the Windows lint lane back to the plain wrapper invocation.
- add a local Fast mode setting in codex-core (similar to how model id
is currently stored on disk locally)
- send `service_tier=priority` on requests when Fast is enabled
- add `/fast` in the TUI and persist it locally
- feature flag
### What
add wiring for `phase` field on `ResponseItem::Message` to lay
groundwork for differentiating model preambles and final messages.

follows pattern in #9698.
updated schemas with `just write-app-server-schema` so we can see type
changes.
### Tests
Updated existing tests for SSE parsing and hydrating from history
- capture the header from SSE/WS handshakes, store it per
ModelClientSession using `Oncelock`, echo it on turn-scoped requests,
and add SSE+WS integration tests for within-turn persistence +
cross-turn reset.
- keep `x-codex-turn-state` sticky within a user turn to maintain
routing continuity for retries/tool follow-ups.
Adds a new feature
`enable_request_compression` that will compress using zstd requests to
the codex-backend. Currently only enabled for codex-backend so only enabled for openai providers when using chatgpt::auth even when the feature is enabled
Added a new info log line too for evaluating the compression ratio and
overhead off compressing before requesting. You can enable with
`RUST_LOG=$RUST_LOG,codex_client::transport=info`
```
2026-01-06T00:09:48.272113Z INFO codex_client::transport: Compressed request body with zstd pre_compression_bytes=28914 post_compression_bytes=11485 compression_duration_ms=0
