Arun Eswara cf7e9cfe6a Support self-serve Business ProLite accounts (#35785)
## What changed

- Recognize `self_serve_business_prolite` across authentication, account and rate-limit APIs, generated schemas, workspace classification, status display, cloud configuration gating, and usage-limit messaging.
- Keep the Python SDK's `PlanType` enum compatible with non-empty string values introduced by newer Codex runtimes while preserving its known constants.

## Testing

- Cover token parsing, account reads and notifications, backend rate-limit mapping, workspace behavior, error formatting, and Python SDK response coercion for the new plan value.

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.
