charlesgong-openai e12dd73b7d [codex] Support plugin manifest path lists (#28790)
## Summary

Allow plugin manifests to declare `skills` as either a single path
string or an array of path strings in the core plugin loader.

## Why

Some plugin packages need to expose skills from more than one directory.
Before this change, `plugin.json` only accepted a single string for
`skills`, so manifests like this were ignored as an invalid `skills`
shape:

```json
{
  "skills": ["./skills/abc", "./skills/edk"]
}
```

This keeps the existing single-string form working while adding support
for the list form. The final scope is intentionally limited to the core
plugin manifest/load path for `skills`; `apps`, file-backed
`mcpServers`, and the bundled plugin-creator assets are unchanged in
this PR.

## What changed

- Parse `skills` as either a string or an array of strings in
`plugin.json`.
- Store resolved skill paths as a list in `PluginManifestPaths`.
- Load manifest-declared skill roots in addition to the default
`./skills` root.
- Deduplicate exact duplicate skill roots before loading.
- Rely on existing skill-loader dedupe by canonical `SKILL.md` path for
overlapping roots such as `./skills` plus `./skills/abc`.
- Update plugin manifest tests to cover:
  - single string `skills`
  - list of string `skills`
  - duplicate skill roots
  - `./skills` as a manifest path
  - explicit child roots like `./skills/abc` and `./skills/edk`
  - overlapping-root dedupe

## Validation

- `just test -p codex-plugin`
- `just test -p codex-core-plugins`
- `just test -p codex-mcp-extension`
- `git diff --check`

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
