## Summary
Fixes#26423.
On Windows, `codex app PATH` detected Codex Desktop and launched the app
shell target, then only printed a manual instruction to open the
workspace. The Desktop app already supports
`codex://threads/new?path=...`, so the CLI can open the requested
workspace directly.
This updates the Windows launcher to normalize the workspace path,
encode it into a `codex://threads/new` deep link, and open that URL when
Codex Desktop is installed. The installer fallback still opens the
Windows installer and prints the workspace path for after installation.
## Summary
`codex app` should be a platform-aware entry point for opening Codex
Desktop or helping users install it. Before this change, the command
only existed on macOS and its default installer URL always pointed at
the Apple Silicon DMG, which sent Intel Mac users to the wrong build.
This updates the macOS path to choose the Apple Silicon or Intel DMG
based on the detected processor, while keeping `--download-url` as an
advanced override. It also enables `codex app` on Windows, where the CLI
opens an installed Codex Desktop app when available and otherwise opens
the Windows installer URL.
