## Why
Removing each decoded prefix from a `Vec` shifts all remaining bytes. Repeating
that work is costly for streams containing many invalid UTF-8 bytes or many
framed messages in one relay record.
## What changed
- Buffer unified exec output in a `VecDeque` and use UTF-8 error offsets to
consume the largest valid prefix while continuing to make progress on invalid
input.
- Buffer Noise relay messages in `BytesMut` and advance past decoded frames
without moving the remaining bytes.
## Testing
Added regression coverage for valid data surrounding invalid UTF-8, front
consumption without shifting, and reassembling many JSON-RPC messages from one
record.

## Why
The app-server and exec-server expose separate JSON-RPC APIs, but
exec-server currently sources its serialized protocol and envelope types
through app-server-oriented code. Giving each API an explicit owner
makes the crate boundary legible without introducing shared generic
envelopes.
## What changed
- Added `codex-exec-server-protocol` to own exec DTOs, process IDs, and
JSON-RPC envelopes.
- Updated exec-server clients, transports, handlers, and tests to use
the new crate.
- Exposed app-server's existing JSON-RPC types through a public `rpc`
module while retaining root re-exports.
- Preserved existing wire shapes, including exec `PathUri` behavior.
## Stack
This is PR 1 of 6. Next: [PR
#29721](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/29721), which moves auth
mode below the app wire boundary.
## Validation
- Exec-server protocol and server coverage passed in the focused
protocol test runs.
- App-server protocol schema fixtures passed.
## Why
Rendezvous forwards traffic between the orchestrator and exec-server.
The endpoints need to authenticate each other and encrypt that traffic
without trusting Rendezvous with plaintext or endpoint keys.
## Changes
- Adds a hybrid Noise IK channel through Clatter using X25519,
ML-KEM-768, AES-256-GCM, and SHA-256.
- Binds each handshake to `environment_id`, `executor_registration_id`,
and `stream_id`.
- Pins the registry-provided executor key and carries the harness
authorization inside the encrypted handshake.
- Orders relay frames before consuming Noise nonces and fragments large
JSON-RPC messages into bounded records.
- Bounds handshake payloads, frames, streams, and message reassembly.
Runtime activation is in

## Stack
1. **[openai/codex#26242](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/26242)**:
Noise channel and relay transport
2. [openai/codex#26245](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/26245):
remote registration and runtime activation
## Verification
- `just test -p codex-exec-server`
- Oversized initiator payload regression coverage
- `just fix -p codex-exec-server`
- `just bazel-lock-check`
- `cargo shear`
