Add Python app-server SDK (#14435)
## TL;DR Bring the Python app-server SDK from `main-with-prs-13953-and-14232` onto current `main` as a standalone SDK-only PR. - adds the new `sdk/python` and `sdk/python-runtime` package trees - keeps the scope to the SDK payload only, without the unrelated branch-history or workflow changes from the source branch - regenerates `sdk/python/src/codex_app_server/generated/v2_all.py` against current `main` schema so the extracted SDK matches today's protocol definitions ## Validation - `PYTHONPATH=sdk/python/src python3 -m pytest sdk/python/tests` Co-authored-by: Codex <noreply@openai.com>

# FAQ
|
||||
|
||||
## Thread vs turn
|
||||
|
||||
- A `Thread` is conversation state.
|
||||
- A `Turn` is one model execution inside that thread.
|
||||
- Multi-turn chat means multiple turns on the same `Thread`.
|
||||
|
||||
## `run()` vs `stream()`
|
||||
|
||||
- `Turn.run()` is the easiest path. It consumes events until completion and returns `TurnResult`.
|
||||
- `Turn.stream()` yields raw notifications (`Notification`) so you can react event-by-event.
|
||||
|
||||
Choose `run()` for most apps. Choose `stream()` for progress UIs, custom timeout logic, or custom parsing.
|
||||
|
||||
## Sync vs async clients
|
||||
|
||||
- `Codex` is the minimal sync SDK and best default.
|
||||
- `AsyncAppServerClient` wraps the sync transport with `asyncio.to_thread(...)` for async-friendly call sites.
|
||||
|
||||
If your app is not already async, stay with `Codex`.
|
||||
|
||||
## `thread(...)` vs `thread_resume(...)`
|
||||
|
||||
- `codex.thread(thread_id)` only binds a local helper to an existing thread ID.
|
||||
- `codex.thread_resume(thread_id, ...)` performs a `thread/resume` RPC and can apply overrides (model, instructions, sandbox, etc.).
|
||||
|
||||
Use `thread(...)` for simple continuation. Use `thread_resume(...)` when you need explicit resume semantics or override fields.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why does constructor fail?
|
||||
|
||||
`Codex()` is eager: it starts transport and calls `initialize` in `__init__`.
|
||||
|
||||
Common causes:
|
||||
|
||||
- published runtime package (`codex-cli-bin`) is not installed
|
||||
- local `codex_bin` override points to a missing file
|
||||
- local auth/session is missing
|
||||
- incompatible/old app-server
|
||||
|
||||
Maintainers stage releases by building the SDK once and the runtime once per
|
||||
platform with the same pinned runtime version. Publish `codex-cli-bin` as
|
||||
platform wheels only; do not publish an sdist:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd sdk/python
|
||||
python scripts/update_sdk_artifacts.py generate-types
|
||||
python scripts/update_sdk_artifacts.py \
|
||||
stage-sdk \
|
||||
/tmp/codex-python-release/codex-app-server-sdk \
|
||||
--runtime-version 1.2.3
|
||||
python scripts/update_sdk_artifacts.py \
|
||||
stage-runtime \
|
||||
/tmp/codex-python-release/codex-cli-bin \
|
||||
/path/to/codex \
|
||||
--runtime-version 1.2.3
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Why does a turn "hang"?
|
||||
|
||||
A turn is complete only when `turn/completed` arrives for that turn ID.
|
||||
|
||||
- `run()` waits for this automatically.
|
||||
- With `stream()`, make sure you keep consuming notifications until completion.
|
||||
|
||||
## How do I retry safely?
|
||||
|
||||
Use `retry_on_overload(...)` for transient overload failures (`ServerBusyError`).
|
||||
|
||||
Do not blindly retry all errors. For `InvalidParamsError` or `MethodNotFoundError`, fix inputs/version compatibility instead.
|
||||
|
||||
## Common pitfalls
|
||||
|
||||
- Starting a new thread for every prompt when you wanted continuity.
|
||||
- Forgetting to `close()` (or not using `with Codex() as codex:`).
|
||||
- Ignoring `TurnResult.status` and `TurnResult.error`.
|
||||
- Mixing SDK input classes with raw dicts incorrectly in minimal API paths.
