victor-openai 3b50349e1a Add explicit app and account targets to MCP resource reads (#47248)
## What changed

Allow `mcpServer/resource/read` to specify `target: {connectorId, linkId}` for direct hosted app reads without tool discovery, when supported by the backend. Require an explicit `linkId`: a string selects an account, while `null` requests no-auth access subject to backend policy.

Restrict direct targets to `codex_apps` and reject empty connector IDs, empty link IDs, and synthetic link IDs. Preserve originating app/account scope when `originCallId` and `threadId` are supplied, and retain discovery when `target` is omitted.

Update protocol schemas and TypeScript and Python models, preserving required-but-nullable `linkId` semantics in Python code generation.

## Testing

Extend resource-read tests to check target metadata with and without a thread, including explicit no-auth targets and omitted targets. Add Python model tests for string and null `linkId` values and rejection of a missing `linkId`.

OpenAI Codex Python SDK

Build Python applications that start Codex threads, run turns, stream progress, and control workspace access.

Install

Install the SDK:

pip install openai-codex

Quickstart

The SDK reuses your existing Codex authentication when one is already available:

from openai_codex import Codex

with Codex() as codex:
    thread = codex.thread_start()
    result = thread.run("Explain this repository in three bullets.")
    print(result.final_response)

thread.run(...) returns a TurnResult containing the final response, collected items, and token usage.

Authentication

Existing Codex authentication is reused automatically. To start ChatGPT browser login explicitly:

from openai_codex import Codex

with Codex() as codex:
    login = codex.login_chatgpt()
    print(login.auth_url)
    print(login.wait().success)

For device-code login:

with Codex() as codex:
    login = codex.login_chatgpt_device_code()
    print(login.verification_url, login.user_code)
    login.wait()

For API-key login:

with Codex() as codex:
    codex.login_api_key("sk-...")

Built-In Help

Use Python's standard help(openai_codex), help(Codex), or python -m pydoc openai_codex documentation tools.
