## Why
#28522 routes selected-plugin HTTP MCP traffic through the owning
executor, but OAuth bootstrap and refresh still used host-local clients.
Executor-only servers therefore cannot complete discovery or login
through the same network boundary as the MCP connection.
## What changed
- adapt `codex_exec_server::HttpClient` to RMCP 1.8's `OAuthHttpClient`
contract
- let RMCP own discovery, dynamic registration, PKCE, token exchange,
and refresh
- route auth status, persisted-token startup, and app-server login
through the server runtime while preserving the existing local discovery
path
- add optional `threadId` to `mcpServer/oauth/login` and echo it in the
completion notification
- implement RMCP's redirect policy and 1 MiB OAuth response limit over
executor HTTP
- cover selected-thread OAuth discovery and login through an
executor-only route
Depends on #28522.
## Summary
- Retry transient streamable HTTP failures during RMCP startup when the
failure happens while sending the initialize request.
- Retry transient streamable HTTP failures for tools/list, which is
read-only and safe to replay.
- Cover both retryable HTTP statuses and request-layer failures where no
HTTP status is returned.
- Surface retryable HTTP statuses from the streamable HTTP adapter as
typed client errors.
- Add integration coverage for initialize retry, tools/list retry,
no-status request failure retry, and non-retryable initialize status.
## Root cause
The observed codex_apps failures can happen before normal tool
execution: RMCP startup fails while sending initialize, or the first
read-only tools/list fails after startup. Retrying hosted_apps_bridge
tools/call would not cover initialize and would risk replaying
side-effecting tool calls. This change retries the streamable HTTP
handshake itself, recreates the transport between initialize attempts,
and retries only tools/list among post-initialize service operations.
## Validation
- cargo fmt --package codex-rmcp-client
- cargo test -p codex-rmcp-client --test streamable_http_recovery
Adds failure-only logging for MCP streamable HTTP post_message calls and
the underlying reqwest send path, capturing the MCP method/request id,
endpoint shape, auth-header presence, timeout/connect classification,
and sanitized error source chain without logging headers, bodies,
tokens, or full URLs.
WIll make it easier to uprev when the new draft spec is supported.
Also updates reqwest where needed for compatibility but doesn't update
it everywhere since this is already a large diff.
The new version of rmcp handles certain kinds of authentication failures
differently, this patch includes support for identifying the failing scope
in a WWW-Authenticate header.
### Why
The RMCP layer needs a Streamable HTTP client that can talk either
directly over `reqwest` or through the executor HTTP runner without
duplicating MCP session logic higher in the stack. This PR adds that
client-side transport boundary so remote Streamable HTTP MCP can reuse
the same RMCP flow as the local path.
### What
- Add a shared `rmcp-client/src/streamable_http/` module with:
- `transport_client.rs` for the local-or-remote transport enum
- `local_client.rs` for the direct `reqwest` implementation
- `remote_client.rs` for the executor-backed implementation
- `common.rs` for the small shared Streamable HTTP helpers
- Teach `RmcpClient` to build Streamable HTTP transports in either local
or remote mode while keeping the existing OAuth ownership in RMCP.
- Translate remote POST, GET, and DELETE session operations into
executor `http/request` calls.
- Preserve RMCP session expiry handling and reconnect behavior for the
remote transport.
- Add remote transport coverage in
`rmcp-client/tests/streamable_http_remote.rs` and keep the shared test
support in `rmcp-client/tests/streamable_http_test_support.rs`.
### Verification
- `cargo check -p codex-rmcp-client`
- online CI
