Adam Perry @ OpenAI 6ba4bf9e64 Honor server retry advice across Responses retries and fallback (#49441)
## Why

Responses overload and exhausted-request errors could terminate despite server retry advice, and WebSocket-to-HTTP fallback could issue a request before the advised deadline.

## What changed

- Allow `ServerOverloaded` and `RetryLimit` errors to retry when server advice is present, within the configured retry budgets.
- Preserve `Retry-After` headers from rejected WebSocket upgrades and wait for the server deadline before falling back to HTTP.
- Keep quota, usage-limit, and policy failures terminal even when they include retry advice.

## Testing

Add coverage for HTTP overload and rate-limit recovery, WebSocket upgrade rejection and fallback timing, retry deadline preservation through error mapping, and retry limits for sampling and manual and automatic compaction.

codex-api

Typed clients for Codex/OpenAI APIs built on top of the generic transport in codex-client.

  • Hosts the request/response models and request builders for Responses and related Codex APIs.
  • Owns provider configuration (base URLs, headers, query params), auth header injection, retry tuning, and stream idle settings.
  • Parses SSE streams into ResponseEvent/ResponseStream, including rate-limit snapshots and API-specific error mapping.
  • Serves as the wire-level layer consumed by codex-core; higher layers handle auth refresh and business logic.

Core interface

The public interface of this crate is intentionally small and uniform:

  • Responses endpoint

    • Input:
      • ResponsesApiRequest for the request body (model, instructions, input, tools, parallel_tool_calls, reasoning/text controls).
      • ResponsesOptions for transport/header concerns (conversation_id, session_source, extra_headers, compression, turn_state).
    • Output: a ResponseStream of ResponseEvent (both re-exported from common).
  • Memory summarize endpoint

    • Input: MemorySummarizeInput (re-exported as codex_api::MemorySummarizeInput):
      • model: String.
      • raw_memories: Vec<RawMemory> (serialized as traces for wire compatibility).
        • RawMemory includes id, metadata.source_path, and normalized items.
      • reasoning: Option<Reasoning>.
    • Output: Vec<MemorySummarizeOutput>.
    • MemoriesClient::summarize_input(&MemorySummarizeInput, extra_headers) wraps JSON encoding and retry/telemetry wiring.

All HTTP details (URLs, headers, retry/backoff policies, SSE framing) are encapsulated in codex-api and codex-client. Callers construct prompts/inputs using protocol types and work with typed streams of ResponseEvent or other endpoint-specific response values.
