Adam Perry @ OpenAI 9127f21890 Test repository-wide Rust formatter discovery (#41925)
## What changed

- Exercise Rust source discovery through a mocked `git ls-files` call, including files outside `codex-rs`, paths containing spaces, and stale entries that no longer exist.
- Assert that the formatter invokes `rustfmt` from `codex-rs` with the repository configuration in both format and check modes.
- Keep the multiline argument-comment lint fixture stable under formatting and update affected Rust test files to the expected style.

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.
