Eric Traut a73403a890 Make missing config clears no-ops (#20334)
## Why

Fixes #20145.

`config/value/write` treats a JSON `null` value as a request to clear
the config key. Clearing a key that is already absent should be
idempotent, but clearing a nested key such as `features.personality`
from an empty `config.toml` returned `configPathNotFound` because
`clear_path` treated the missing `features` parent table as an error.

That makes app-server reset flows brittle because clients have to read
first and avoid sending a clear request unless the parent path already
exists.

## What Changed

- Updated app-server config clearing so missing intermediate tables, or
non-table parents, are treated as an unchanged no-op.
- Removed the now-unreachable `MergeError::PathNotFound` path from
config write merging.
- Added a regression test covering `features.personality = null` against
an empty user config.

## Verification

- `cargo test -p codex-app-server clear_missing_nested_config_is_noop`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server` was run; the config manager unit
suite passed, but one unrelated integration test failed because
`turn_start_emits_thread_scoped_warning_notification_for_trimmed_skills`
expected `7` trimmed skills and observed `8`.
- `just fix -p codex-app-server`

or brew install --cask codex

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

Install globally with your preferred package manager:

# 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.
