## Why
`voice-input` is the only remaining TUI crate feature, but it is also a default feature and nothing in the workspace selects it explicitly. In practice it is just acting as a proxy for platform support, which is better expressed with target-specific dependencies and cfgs.
## What changed
- remove the `voice-input` feature from `codex-tui`
- make `cpal` a normal non-Linux target dependency
- replace the feature-based voice/audio cfgs with pure Linux-vs-non-Linux cfgs
- shrink the workspace-manifest verifier allowlist to remove the remaining `codex-tui` exception
## Why
The remaining `vt100-tests` and `debug-logs` features in `codex-tui`
were only gating test-only and debug-only behavior. Those feature
toggles add Cargo and Bazel permutations without buying anything, and
they make it easier for more crate features to linger in the workspace.
## What changed
- delete `vt100-tests` and `debug-logs` from `codex-tui`
- always compile the VT100 integration tests in the TUI test target
instead of hiding them behind a Cargo feature
- remove the unused textarea debug logging branch instead of replacing
it with another gate
- add the required argument-comment annotations in the VT100 tests now
that Bazel sees those callsites during linting
- shrink the manifest verifier allowlist again so only the remaining
real feature exceptions stay permitted
## How tested
- `cargo test -p codex-tui`
- `just argument-comment-lint -p codex-tui`
## Why
The remaining `vt100-tests` and `debug-logs` features in `codex-tui` were only selecting debug and test-only behavior. Those are exactly the cases where this repo already accepts `#[cfg(debug_assertions)]` as the Cargo-free substitute.
## What changed
- delete `vt100-tests` and `debug-logs` from `codex-tui`
- gate the VT100 integration tests with `debug_assertions` instead of a Cargo feature
- gate the textarea debug log site with `debug_assertions`
- shrink the manifest verifier allowlist again so only the remaining real feature exceptions stay permitted

- gate the textarea debug log site with `debug_assertions`
- shrink the manifest verifier allowlist again so only the remaining real feature exceptions stay permitted
## Why
`codex-cloud-tasks-client` was mixing two different roles: the real HTTP
client and the mock implementation used by tests and local mock mode.
Keeping both in the same crate forced Cargo feature toggles and Bazel
`crate_features` just to pick an implementation.
This change keeps `codex-cloud-tasks-client` focused on the shared API
surface and real backend client, and moves the mock implementation into
its own crate so we can remove those feature permutations cleanly.
## What changed
- add a new `codex-cloud-tasks-mock-client` crate that owns `MockClient`
- remove the `mock` and `online` features from
`codex-cloud-tasks-client`
- make `codex-cloud-tasks-client` unconditionally depend on
`codex-backend-client` and export `HttpClient` directly
- gate the mock-mode path in `codex-cloud-tasks` behind
`#[cfg(debug_assertions)]`, so release builds always initialize the real
HTTP client
- update `codex-cloud-tasks` and its tests to use
`codex-cloud-tasks-mock-client::MockClient` wherever mock behavior is
needed
- remove the matching Bazel `crate_features` override and shrink the
manifest verifier allowlist accordingly
## How tested
- `cargo test -p codex-cloud-tasks-client`
- `cargo test -p codex-cloud-tasks-mock-client`
- `cargo test -p codex-cloud-tasks`

permutations while we are trying to eliminate them.
## What changed
- extend `verify_cargo_workspace_manifests.py` to reject new
`[features]` tables in workspace crates
- reject new optional dependencies that create implicit crate features
- reject new workspace-to-workspace `features = [...]` activations and
`default-features = false`
- add a narrow temporary allowlist for the existing feature-bearing
manifests and internal feature activations
- make the allowlist self-shrinking so a follow-up removal has to delete
its corresponding exception

Makes fuzzy file search use case-insensitive matching instead of
smart-case in `codex-file-search`. I find smart-case to be a poor user
experience -using the wrong case for a letter drops its match so
significantly, it often drops off the results list, effectively making a
search case-sensitive.

I noticed that Codex was spending more time on running this lint check
locally than I would like. Now that we have the linter running
cross-platform using Bazel in CI, I find it's best just to update the PR
ASAP to get CI going than to wait for `just argument-comment-lint` to
finish locally before updating the PR.
