When rg download fails during npm package staging, log the
target/platform/url and preserve the original exception as the cause.
Emit GitHub Actions log groups and error annotations so the failure is
easier to spot.
Document why a urlopen timeout is set (the default can hang
indefinitely).
This is to make failures in the specific build step easier to understand
/ work out what's failing rather than having a big wall of text (or at
least having an obvious part of it that helps narrow that wall)

The Windows Elevated Sandbox uses two new binaries:
codex-windows-sandbox-setup.exe
codex-command-runner.exe
This PR includes them when installing native deps and packaging for npm
This PR expands `.github/workflows/rust-release.yml` so that it also
builds and publishes the `npm` module for
`@openai/codex-responses-api-proxy` in addition to `@openai/codex`. Note
both `npm` modules are similar, in that they each contain a single `.js`
file that is a thin launcher around the appropriate native executable.
(Since we have a minimal dependency on Node.js, I also lowered the
minimum version from 20 to 16 and verified that works on my machine.)
As part of this change, we tighten up some of the docs around
`codex-responses-api-proxy` and ensure the details regarding protecting
the `OPENAI_API_KEY` in memory match the implementation.
To test the `npm` build process, I ran:
```
./codex-cli/scripts/build_npm_package.py --package codex-responses-api-proxy --version 0.43.0-alpha.3
```
which stages the `npm` module for `@openai/codex-responses-api-proxy` in
a temp directory, using the binary artifacts from
https://github.com/openai/codex/releases/tag/rust-v0.43.0-alpha.3.
We try to ensure ripgrep (`rg`) is provided with Codex.
- For `brew`, we declare it as a dependency of our formula:
https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/08d82d8b006a19efbe234477bc8b18d35b5fef50/Formula/c/codex.rb#L24
- For `npm`, we declare `@vscode/ripgrep` as a dependency, which
installs the platform-specific binary as part of a `postinstall` script:
https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/fdb8dadcae9f8eec91bc3eb5a17b3f9b19e28505/codex-cli/package.json#L22
- Users who download the CLI directly from GitHub Releases are on their
own.
In practice, I have seen `@vscode/ripgrep` fail on occasion. Here is a
trace from a GitHub workflow:

To eliminate this error, this PR changes things so that we vendor the
`rg` binary into https://www.npmjs.com/package/@openai/codex so it is
guaranteed to be included when a user runs `npm i -g @openai/codex`.
The downside of this approach is the increase in package size: we
include the `rg` executable for six architectures (in addition to the
six copies of `codex` we already include). In a follow-up, I plan to add
support for "slices" of our npm module, so that soon users will be able
to do:
```
npm install -g @openai/codex@aarch64-apple-darwin
```
Admittedly, this is a sizable change and I tried to clean some things up
in the process:
- `install_native_deps.sh` has been replaced by `install_native_deps.py`
- `stage_release.sh` and `stage_rust_release.py` has been replaced by
`build_npm_package.py`
We now vendor in a DotSlash file for ripgrep (as a modest attempt to
facilitate local testing) and then build up the extension by:
- creating a temp directory and copying `package.json` over to it with
the target value for `"version"`
- finding the GitHub workflow that corresponds to the
`--release-version` and copying the various `codex` artifacts to
respective `vendor/TARGET_TRIPLE/codex` folder
- downloading the `rg` artifacts specified in the DotSlash file and
copying them over to the respective `vendor/TARGET_TRIPLE/path` folder
- if `--pack-output` is specified, runs `npm pack` on the temp directory
To test, I downloaded the artifact produced by this CI job:
https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/17961595388/job/51085840022?pr=3660
and verified that `node ./bin/codex.js 'which -a rg'` worked as
intended.
