This PR addresses https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/6360. The root
problem is that the TUI was directly loading the `auth.json` file to
access the auth information. It should instead be using the AuthManager,
which records the current auth information. The `auth.json` file can be
overwritten at any time by other instances of the CLI or extension, so
its information can be out of sync with the current instance. The
`/status` command should always report the auth information associated
with the current instance.
An alternative fix for this bug was submitted by @chojs23 in [this
PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/6495). That approach was only a
partial fix.
Hi OpenAI Codex team, currently "Visit chatgpt.com/codex/settings/usage
for up-to-date information on rate limits and credits" message in status
card and error messages. For now, without the "https://" prefix, the
link cannot be clicked directly from most terminals or chat interfaces.

The fix is intent to improve this issue:
- It makes the link clickable in terminals that support it, hence better
accessibility
- It follows standard URL formatting practices
- It maintains consistency with other links in the application (like the
existing "https://openai.com/chatgpt/pricing" links)
Thank you!
## Summary
- show the remaining context window percentage in `/status` alongside
existing token usage details
- replace the composer shortcut prompt with the context window
percentage (or an unavailable message) while a task is running
- update TUI snapshots to reflect the new context window line
## Testing
- cargo test -p codex-tui

We continue the separation between `codex app-server` and `codex
mcp-server`.
In particular, we introduce a new crate, `codex-app-server-protocol`,
and migrate `codex-rs/protocol/src/mcp_protocol.rs` into it, renaming it
`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol.rs`.
Because `ConversationId` was defined in `mcp_protocol.rs`, we move it
into its own file, `codex-rs/protocol/src/conversation_id.rs`, and
because it is referenced in a ton of places, we have to touch a lot of
files as part of this PR.
We also decide to get away from proper JSON-RPC 2.0 semantics, so we
also introduce `codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/jsonrpc_lite.rs`, which
is basically the same `JSONRPCMessage` type defined in `mcp-types`
except with all of the `"jsonrpc": "2.0"` removed.
Getting rid of `"jsonrpc": "2.0"` makes our serialization logic
considerably simpler, as we can lean heavier on serde to serialize
directly into the wire format that we use now.
- Render `send a message to load usage data` in the beginning of the
session
- Render `data not available yet` if received no rate limits
- nit case
- Deleted stall snapshots that were moved to
`codex-rs/tui/src/status/snapshots`
