iceweasel-oai 88c7a4ff07 [codex] Make justfile recipes Windows-aware (#24983)
## Summary

Make the root `justfile` usable from Windows without maintaining a
separate Windows copy of most recipes.

The repo recipes previously assumed POSIX shell behavior for things like
variadic argument forwarding (`"$@"`) and stderr redirection
(`2>/dev/null`). That made common workflows such as `just fmt`, `just
test`, and `just log` unreliable from Windows. This PR introduces a
small cross-platform shell adapter so recipes can stay mostly unified
while still expanding the few shell-specific constructs correctly on
macOS/Linux and Windows.

## What Changed

- Add `scripts/just-shell.py` as the configured `just` shell adapter.
  - On Unix it invokes `sh -cu`.
- On Windows it invokes `pwsh -CommandWithArgs` so arguments containing
spaces are preserved.
- Add portable recipe placeholders:
- `{args}` expands to `"$@"` on Unix and the equivalent PowerShell
forwarded-args expression on Windows.
- `{stderr-null}` expands to the platform-specific stderr suppression
used by `fmt`.
- Convert most variadic one-line recipes to the unified `{args}` form,
including `codex`, `exec`, `file-search`, `app-server-test-client`,
`fix`, `clippy`, `bench`, `mcp-server-run`, `write-app-server-schema`,
and `argument-comment-lint-from-source`.
- Keep genuinely shell-specific recipes split or Unix-only for now,
including recipes backed by `.sh` scripts or recipes whose bodies are
more than simple command forwarding.
- Add a Windows `just install` path that installs PowerShell via
`winget` when `pwsh` is not available, then runs the same basic Rust
setup steps.
- Update the SDK test that validates the root `fmt` recipe so it
recognizes the new portable stderr placeholder.

## Validation

- `just --summary`
- `just --dry-run fmt`
- `just --dry-run bench-smoke`
- `just --dry-run codex foo "bar binky" baz`
- `just --dry-run write-hooks-schema`
- `just --dry-run bazel-lock-update`
- `just --dry-run argument-comment-lint-from-source -- "foo bar"`
- `git diff --check -- justfile scripts/just-shell.py
sdk/python/tests/test_artifact_workflow_and_binaries.py`
- Verified Windows argv preservation through `scripts/just-shell.py`
with arguments containing spaces.
- `uv run --frozen --project sdk/python --extra dev pytest
sdk/python/tests/test_artifact_workflow_and_binaries.py::test_root_fmt_recipe_formats_rust_and_python_sdk`

OpenAI Codex Python SDK (Beta)

Build Python applications that start Codex threads, run turns, stream progress, and control workspace access.

Install

Install the SDK:

pip install openai-codex

Quickstart

The SDK reuses your existing Codex authentication when one is already available:

from openai_codex import Codex

with Codex() as codex:
    thread = codex.thread_start()
    result = thread.run("Explain this repository in three bullets.")
    print(result.final_response)

thread.run(...) returns a TurnResult containing the final response, collected items, and token usage.

Authentication

Existing Codex authentication is reused automatically. To start ChatGPT browser login explicitly:

from openai_codex import Codex

with Codex() as codex:
    login = codex.login_chatgpt()
    print(login.auth_url)
    print(login.wait().success)

For device-code login:

with Codex() as codex:
    login = codex.login_chatgpt_device_code()
    print(login.verification_url, login.user_code)
    login.wait()

For API-key login:

with Codex() as codex:
    codex.login_api_key("sk-...")

Built-In Help

Use Python's standard help(openai_codex), help(Codex), or python -m pydoc openai_codex documentation tools.
