Winston Howes 989f55defa feat(network-proxy): experimental local credential broker (#28034)
## Why

Codex child processes can inherit injectable local credentials directly,
which lets commands read and exfiltrate the real values. This
experimental slice keeps supported workflows working while moving those
credentials behind the managed network proxy.

This PR contains only the proxy-owned broker implementation. The Codex
config and runtime integration is stacked separately in #29752.

## What changed

- discover supported credentials during child setup, retain real values
only in the in-memory proxy broker, and replace them with shaped dummy
values
- require a presented dummy to select a stored credential and preserve
unrelated explicit authorization headers
- bind GitHub cloud, GitHub Enterprise, and OpenAI credentials to their
intended hosts
- inject credentials only into TLS traffic by default; plaintext
injection requires the explicit dangerous opt-in
- use TLS ClientHello routing for CONNECT so non-TLS protocols remain
opaque tunnels
- expose a pure API that identifies environment keys still holding
broker-generated dummies without mutating the caller's environment

## Scope

- supported credentials: `GH_TOKEN`, `GITHUB_TOKEN`,
`GH_ENTERPRISE_TOKEN`, `GITHUB_ENTERPRISE_TOKEN`, and `OPENAI_API_KEY`
- GitHub cloud credentials match `github.com`, `api.github.com`, and
`*.ghe.com`
- GitHub Enterprise credentials match only the normalized non-cloud
`GH_HOST`
- OpenAI API keys match only `api.openai.com`
- this does not cover SSH agents, kube client certificates, filesystem
secret discovery, or context-injected secret scrubbing

## Validation

- `just test -p codex-network-proxy` (191 passed)
- focused opaque CONNECT, plaintext opt-in, dummy-selection, and
child-isolation regressions passed
- scoped Clippy check for `codex-network-proxy` passed

Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.

Codex CLI splash


If you want Codex in your code editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), install in your IDE.
If you want the desktop app experience, run codex app or visit the Codex App page.
If you are looking for the cloud-based agent from OpenAI, Codex Web, go to chatgpt.com/codex.


Quickstart

Installing and running Codex CLI

Run the following on Mac or Linux to install Codex CLI:

curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | sh

Run the following on Windows to install Codex CLI:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex"

Codex CLI can also be installed via the following package managers:

# Install using npm
npm install -g @openai/codex
# Install using Homebrew
brew install --cask codex

Then simply run codex to get started.

You can also go to the latest GitHub Release and download the appropriate binary for your platform.

Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these:

  • macOS
    • Apple Silicon/arm64: codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
    • x86_64 (older Mac hardware): codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
  • Linux
    • x86_64: codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
    • arm64: codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz

Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl), so you likely want to rename it to codex after extracting it.

Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan

Run codex and select Sign in with ChatGPT. We recommend signing into your ChatGPT account to use Codex as part of your Plus, Pro, Business, Edu, or Enterprise plan. Learn more about what's included in your ChatGPT plan.

You can also use Codex with an API key, but this requires additional setup.
