The review integration tests spawn a wiremock server and the Codex conversation manager inside the same Tokio runtime; each of those launch long-lived async tasks to drive the SSE stream and event pump. On Windows the slower I/O frequently starves those tasks when we only offer two worker threads, which trips the `timeout waiting for event` guard in `wait_for_event`. The other review cases (`review_op_with_plain_text_emits_review_fallback`, `review_does_not_emit_agent_message_on_structured_output`, and `review_input_isolated_from_parent_history`) already bumped their Windows flavor to four worker threads after similar CI flakes. This change makes `review_op_emits_lifecycle_and_review_output` consistent so Windows runs stop intermittently hanging while Linux/macOS stay on two threads.

Quickstart
Installing and running Codex CLI
Install globally with your preferred package manager. If you use npm:
npm install -g @openai/codex
Alternatively, if you use Homebrew:
brew install codex
Then simply run codex to get started:
codex
You can also go to the latest GitHub Release and download the appropriate binary for your platform.
Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these:
- macOS
- Apple Silicon/arm64:
codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz - x86_64 (older Mac hardware):
codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
- Apple Silicon/arm64:
- Linux
- x86_64:
codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz - arm64:
codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
- x86_64:
Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl), so you likely want to rename it to codex after extracting it.
