fix(server): resume archived Codex sessions

[Gigioxx]

Problem

Archiving a Codex conversation outside T3 (for example in ChatGPT) archives the Codex CLI session. The next T3 turn fails to resume it with session ... is archived, and the conversation cannot continue.

Change

When thread/resume fails because the session is archived, openCodexThread sends thread/unarchive and retries the same resume once, keeping its history and settings. If unarchive or the retry fails, that error propagates without starting a fresh thread. Existing missing-thread recovery is unchanged.

Scope and approval

Fixes #10481. Maintainer triage confirming the bug: #10481 (comment)

Verification

Reproduced before the fix with the exact reported error in a runtime regression test (1 failed, 40 passed at the time).

Rechecked in this session against a local, unpushed merge of this branch with current main (the branch merges cleanly):

• vp test run src/provider/Layers/CodexSessionRuntime.test.ts in apps/server: 51 passed, including the archived-session recovery and failure cases.
• tsc --noEmit -p apps/server/tsconfig.json: no errors (Effect language-service suggestions only).

Not checked: a live ChatGPT archive and unarchive against a real Codex CLI; tests use protocol test doubles. This shared server path serves web, desktop, and mobile; no client UI or wire contracts change.

Original change by GPT-6 via Codex. Description update by Claude Opus 5.5 via Claude Code.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at 3d52466

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a narrowly scoped server recovery fix that unarchives an archived Codex thread and retries the existing resume operation once, with explicit failure handling and regression coverage. Other resume behavior remains unchanged, and the accompanying test changes do not affect production runtime.

Notes:

• Diff unchanged. Approvability was decided on eligibility alone.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

openCodexThread now unarchives archived Codex threads and retries thread/resume. Tests verify successful recovery, propagated failures, and the absence of fresh-thread fallback in these cases.

Changes

Codex archived-thread recovery

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Runtime unarchive and resume recovery apps/server/src/provider/Layers/CodexSessionRuntime.ts	The runtime accepts thread/unarchive, retries thread/resume after archived-thread errors, and retains recoverable-error fallback behavior.
Archived-thread recovery tests apps/server/src/provider/Layers/CodexSessionRuntime.test.ts	Tests cover successful recovery, unarchive failures, retry failures, and request typing for thread/unarchive.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 3d524

Archived-session recovery is implemented, but duplicate test declarations currently prevent the server test file from typechecking and must be fixed before merge.

Regarding the CodeRabbit docstring coverage warning: no documentation change is needed for this focused fix. The repository guidance asks contributors to avoid unnecessary JSDoc and keep local implementation explanations in concise nearby comments. The existing resume comment explains the non-obvious history-decoding constraint, and the new recovery path is covered by behavioral tests. Adding docstrings solely to meet the generic 80% threshold would not add useful context. Leaving code and configuration unchanged.

[juliusmarminge]

Thanks for working on this. We merged the orchestrator V2 rewrite in #2829, and we are closing this PR as part of that transition.

This change touches CodexSessionRuntime.ts, which the V2 merge removed. Codex execution now uses CodexAdapterV2 and the generated app-server integration.

Sorry for the extra work this creates. If the change is still needed on V2, please rebuild it on current main, verify it there, and open a new PR linking back here. We're closing the current implementation without assuming the underlying request is resolved.
