joeflorencio-openai d45cd26248 Switch runtime to cloud config bundle (#24622)
## Summary

- Adapts the moved `codex-cloud-config` crate from the legacy cloud
requirements endpoint to the new config bundle endpoint.
- Switches runtime consumers from `CloudRequirementsLoader` to
`CloudConfigBundleLoader` so one shared bundle supplies cloud-delivered
config and requirements.
- Removes the legacy cloud requirements domain loader path.

## Details

This intentionally keeps `codex-cloud-config` monolithic for review
lineage: the previous PR establishes the crate move, and this PR shows
the behavior change against that moved implementation. A follow-up PR
splits the module back into focused files.

The new bundle path preserves the important cloud requirements loader
semantics where intended: account-scoped signed cache, 30 minute TTL, 5
minute refresh cadence, retry/backoff, auth recovery, and fail-closed
startup loading. The cached payload changes from a single requirements
TOML string to the backend-delivered bundle, and validation rejects
malformed config or requirements fragments before cache write/use.

codex-app-server-client

Shared in-process app-server client used by conversational CLI surfaces:

  • codex-exec
  • codex-tui

Purpose

This crate centralizes startup and lifecycle management for an in-process codex-app-server runtime, so CLI clients do not need to duplicate:

  • app-server bootstrap and initialize handshake
  • in-memory request/event transport wiring
  • lifecycle orchestration around caller-provided startup identity
  • graceful shutdown behavior

Startup identity

Callers pass both the app-server SessionSource and the initialize client_info.name explicitly when starting the facade.

That keeps thread metadata (for example in thread/list and thread/read) aligned with the originating runtime without baking TUI/exec-specific policy into the shared client layer.

Transport model

The in-process path uses typed channels:

  • client -> server: ClientRequest / ClientNotification
  • server -> client: InProcessServerEvent
    • ServerRequest
    • ServerNotification
    • LegacyNotification

JSON serialization is still used at external transport boundaries (stdio/websocket), but the in-process hot path is typed.

Typed requests still receive app-server responses through the JSON-RPC result envelope internally. That is intentional: the in-process path is meant to preserve app-server semantics while removing the process boundary, not to introduce a second response contract.

Bootstrap behavior

The client facade starts an already-initialized in-process runtime, but thread bootstrap still follows normal app-server flow:

  • caller sends thread/start or thread/resume
  • app-server returns the immediate typed response
  • richer session metadata may arrive later as a SessionConfigured legacy event

Surfaces such as TUI and exec may therefore need a short bootstrap phase where they reconcile startup response data with later events.

Backpressure and shutdown

  • Queues are bounded and use DEFAULT_IN_PROCESS_CHANNEL_CAPACITY by default.
  • Full queues return explicit overload behavior instead of unbounded growth.
  • shutdown() performs a bounded graceful shutdown and then aborts if timeout is exceeded.

If the client falls behind on event consumption, the worker emits InProcessServerEvent::Lagged and may reject pending server requests so approval flows do not hang indefinitely behind a saturated queue.
