guinness-oai ca3246f77a [codex] Send realtime transcript deltas on handoff (#18761)
## Summary
- Track how many realtime transcript entries have already been attached
to a background-agent handoff.
- Attach only entries added since the previous handoff as
`<transcript_delta>` instead of resending the accumulated transcript
snapshot.
- Update the realtime integration test so the second delegation carries
only the second transcript delta.

## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-api`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
inbound_handoff_request_sends_transcript_delta_after_each_handoff`
- `cargo build -p codex-cli -p codex-app-server`

## Manual testing
Built local debug binaries at:
- `codex-rs/target/debug/codex`
- `codex-rs/target/debug/codex-app-server`

codex-api

Typed clients for Codex/OpenAI APIs built on top of the generic transport in codex-client.

  • Hosts the request/response models and request builders for Responses and Compact APIs.
  • Owns provider configuration (base URLs, headers, query params), auth header injection, retry tuning, and stream idle settings.
  • Parses SSE streams into ResponseEvent/ResponseStream, including rate-limit snapshots and API-specific error mapping.
  • Serves as the wire-level layer consumed by codex-core; higher layers handle auth refresh and business logic.

Core interface

The public interface of this crate is intentionally small and uniform:

  • Responses endpoint

    • Input:
      • ResponsesApiRequest for the request body (model, instructions, input, tools, parallel_tool_calls, reasoning/text controls).
      • ResponsesOptions for transport/header concerns (conversation_id, session_source, extra_headers, compression, turn_state).
    • Output: a ResponseStream of ResponseEvent (both re-exported from common).
  • Compaction endpoint

    • Input: CompactionInput<'a> (re-exported as codex_api::CompactionInput):
      • model: &str.
      • input: &[ResponseItem] history to compact.
      • instructions: &str fully-resolved compaction instructions.
    • Output: Vec<ResponseItem>.
    • CompactClient::compact_input(&CompactionInput, extra_headers) wraps the JSON encoding and retry/telemetry wiring.
  • Memory summarize endpoint

    • Input: MemorySummarizeInput (re-exported as codex_api::MemorySummarizeInput):
      • model: String.
      • raw_memories: Vec<RawMemory> (serialized as traces for wire compatibility).
        • RawMemory includes id, metadata.source_path, and normalized items.
      • reasoning: Option<Reasoning>.
    • Output: Vec<MemorySummarizeOutput>.
    • MemoriesClient::summarize_input(&MemorySummarizeInput, extra_headers) wraps JSON encoding and retry/telemetry wiring.

All HTTP details (URLs, headers, retry/backoff policies, SSE framing) are encapsulated in codex-api and codex-client. Callers construct prompts/inputs using protocol types and work with typed streams of ResponseEvent or compacted ResponseItem values.
