* test(codex): pin Codex read-repair with a real-binary contract check
Orca's session index-heal depends on a Codex behavior: a `thread/read` of an
unindexed rollout performs a read-repair that inserts the `threads` row. All 55
existing heal tests drive a stub app-server and assert "healed" as "the call did
not error", so if Codex ever dropped the repair they would all stay green while
the subsystem went silently inert.
Adds a real-binary contract check built to the same shape as the Git binary
compatibility contract (src/shared/git-binary-compatibility.test.ts): env-gated
test file, version asserted against the binary, dedicated path-filtered PR job.
Pins only the four arms ablation established Orca relies on:
- a read of an unindexed rollout inserts the state row
- a session with no read inserts nothing (the negative control that makes the
insert causal rather than incidental)
- re-reading an indexed thread inserts nothing
- an archived thread stays archived rather than being resurrected
Written against codex-cli 0.150.1. The job sets ORCA_CODEX_CONTRACT_REQUIRED=1
so a missing or failed CLI install fails red instead of silently skipping.
Existing heal tests are unchanged.
* test(codex): register the contract job in the verify aggregate contract
`pr-workflow-parallelism.test.mjs` pins `verify.needs` exactly, so adding the
job to pr.yml without updating that list failed the shard. Adds the entry, and
adds a workflow contract test mirroring `git-binary-compatibility-workflow.test.mjs`:
- the pinned CODEX_CLI_VERSION is the single source for both the npm install
and the runtime version assertion, so the two cannot drift apart
- the install prefix and the binary path the test is pointed at are the same tree
- ORCA_CODEX_CONTRACT_REQUIRED=1 is set, so a failed install fails red rather
than turning the job into a green no-op
Removing the REQUIRED env from pr.yml reddens the new test, confirming it is live.
* test(codex): make binary version guard exact and bounded
* ci(codex): cover index-heal transport dependencies
* test(ci): pin Codex contract dependency coverage
* test(codex): align contract watchdog with child deadlines
* test(codex): cover three-session contract watchdog
* fix(codex): add sqlite sync-database to index-heal scope
