jif-oai a9e5c34083 feat: trigger memories from user turns with cooldown (#19970)
## Why

Memory startup was tied to thread lifecycle events such as create, load,
and fork. That can run memory work before a thread receives real user
input, and it makes startup cost scale with thread management instead of
actual turns. Moving the trigger to `thread/sendInput` keeps memory
startup aligned with the first real user turn and lets it use the
current thread config at turn time.

The idea is to prevent ghost cost due to pre-warm triggered by the app

Turn-based startup can also make global phase-2 consolidation easier to
request repeatedly, so this adds a success cooldown and tightens the
default startup scan window.

## What Changed

- Start `codex_memories_write::start_memories_startup_task` after a
non-empty `thread/sendInput` turn is submitted, instead of from thread
create/load/fork paths:
https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/d4a6885b7829e2fd2ec7a09355e4f75ebe1d1fe3/codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs#L6477-L6487
- Expose `CodexThread::config()` so app-server can pass the live config
into memory startup at turn time.
- Add a six-hour successful-run cooldown for global phase-2
consolidation via `SkippedCooldown`:
https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/d4a6885b7829e2fd2ec7a09355e4f75ebe1d1fe3/codex-rs/state/src/runtime/memories.rs#L963-L966
- Reduce memory startup defaults to at most 2 rollouts over 10 days:
https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/d4a6885b7829e2fd2ec7a09355e4f75ebe1d1fe3/codex-rs/config/src/types.rs#L31-L34

## Verification

Updated the memory runtime coverage around phase-2 reclaim behavior,
including `phase2_global_lock_respects_success_cooldown`.

npm i -g @openai/codex
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.

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.
