CODEX CONSOLIDATES HTTP PLUMBING ACROSS CORE AND CLI

OpenAI shipped four targeted refactors across Codex in the past 24 hours, each tightening dependency ownership and routing logic to reduce technical debt.

The most consequential change removes codex-core's direct reqwest dependency [1], consolidating HTTP handling through the dedicated codex-http-client layer. That same consolidation logic now applies to pet asset downloads, which moved from a standalone blocking client to an async-capable RouteAwareClientPool [2], ensuring CDN redirects respect Codex's configured route handling. On the CLI side, cloud-managed MCP server definitions now load before list, get, login, and logout commands [3], letting enterprise users interact with managed servers while keeping add and remove operations scoped to local configuration. Documentation routing got refined too [4], making official OpenAI docs the default first search target while splitting self-knowledge and setup guidance into focused references. The cleanup also removed obsolete rusty_v8 146.4.0 Bazel targets [5], leaving only the 150.4.0 build targets in place.
