richardopenai c660e2b644 [codex] allow image generation with provider auth (#29513)
## Summary

- allow the native Responses API `image_generation` tool when the active
provider carries CCA's non-empty `x-openai-actor-authorization` header
- preserve the Codex-managed ChatGPT auth path, scoped to providers that
actually require OpenAI auth
- keep generic custom providers excluded, including when unrelated
ChatGPT credentials are cached
- retain the existing feature, provider-capability, and
image-input-modality gates

## Why

CCA authenticates its inference requests through the active provider's
`x-openai-actor-authorization` and `ChatGPT-Account-ID` headers, so it
does not have a Codex-managed login session. The previous gate therefore
hid the native hosted image-generation tool despite an authenticated
codex-backend path.

This change is intentionally limited to the native hosted tool. It adds
no extension, MCP, plugin-service, session-source, token plumbing, or
new provider configuration surface.

## Tests

- `cargo test -p codex-core
hosted_tools_follow_provider_auth_model_and_config_gates`
- `cargo fmt --all -- --check`
- `git diff --check origin/main`

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.
