fix(codex): make the transient hold survive a provider-wide outage and agree with preview (#4546) - #4589
Conversation
…d agree with preview (#4546) Follow-up to #4580, from review of the merged commit. P1: preview and resolve disagreed on the FIRST detour. Preview refused to pick one because pickRoundRobinAccount commits and advances the ring, so it returned null and fell through to the ordinary binding while resolve served from a fresh alternate. Subagent fallback scores the previewed account to decide whether a model is reachable, so it could retire a model over usage the request would never touch. Preview now peeks the same candidate through peekAlternateCodexAccount, which delegates for every strategy except round-robin because that is the only branch with a side effect. P1: when no detour existed the code fell through and deleted the binding. A provider-wide 503 soft-avoids every sibling, which is precisely when the candidate list is empty, so the hold did not cover the failure it was written for. Being unable to send is not the same as forgetting which account owns the conversation: the binding now survives and the bound account is returned, on both the ordinary and model-detour lanes. reset-first could still move a bound thread onto an account with no usage reading, because hasCodexQuotaHeadroom answers true for unknown. The quota strategy excludes those through its strictly-cooler compare; reset ordering has no such compare and now says it explicitly.

When every sibling is soft-avoided, this now routes the request back to the failing bound account while preserving affinity, but structure/providers/openai-tiers.md:81-82 and docs-site/src/content/docs/reference/configuration/providers.md:546-547 still state that a transient request is served by another account. No owned routing documentation was changed, leaving the documented contract wrong for provider-wide outages; update it to distinguish detours from the no-alternate case.

This filter is a separate production behavior change, but both newly added tests cover only transient-failure handling; no test binds a reset-first thread and makes its otherwise eligible replacement unmeasured. Without a preview-and-resolve regression for that scenario, this cache-cost safeguard can be removed or bypassed unnoticed; add a focused case asserting that the bound account is retained until the destination has a real usage reading.

Cover the round-robin peek path.
peekAlternateCodexAccount calls peekRoundRobinAccount only when the strategy is "round-robin" at src/codex/routing.ts Line 1966. This test uses "quota", where peek delegates to the same pure picker as resolve. It cannot detect a preview that advances the round-robin ring.
Add a round-robin case with accountPoolStickyLimit: 1. Call preview before resolve and assert that resolve selects the same detour.
Proposed test adjustment
- accountPoolStrategy: "quota",
+ accountPoolStrategy: "round-robin",
+ accountPoolStickyLimit: 1,As per path instructions, “A behavior change in src/ should come with a focused regression test near the existing tests for that subsystem.”

Make binding retention observable.
This assertion also passes if the outage path deletes the affinity. After six minutes, unbound "quota" routing selects the unchanged activeCodexAccountId of "a" and rebinds the thread.
Before recovery, set config.activeCodexAccountId to "b". A retained affinity must still resolve to "a"; a deleted affinity resolves to "b".

Summary
Follow-up to #4580, from a review of the merged commit
8c7f01451e. Two paths where the transient hold did not actually hold, plus one strategy that still moved a bound thread onto an unmeasured account.Preview and resolve disagreed on the first detour. Preview refused to choose one, because
pickRoundRobinAccountcommits and advances the ring and preview is contractually side-effect-free, so it returnednulland fell through to the ordinary binding while resolve served from a fresh alternate. That is not cosmetic:previewCodexAccountForRequestis what subagent fallback scores to decide whether a model is still reachable, so a bound account at 90% could retire a model the request was about to run on a 10% sibling. Preview now peeks the same candidate throughpeekAlternateCodexAccount, which delegates to the committing path for every strategy except round-robin, since that is the only branch with a side effect.With nowhere to detour, the binding was deleted anyway. The hold only ran when an alternate existed; otherwise the code fell through to
deleteThreadAffinity. A provider-wide 503 soft-avoids every sibling, which is exactly when the candidate list is empty — so the hold missed the failure mode it was written for, and the guarantee in #4580's description did not hold in that case. Being unable to send is not the same as forgetting which account owns the conversation. The binding now survives and the bound account is returned, on both the ordinary and model-detour lanes.reset-firstcould still move a bound thread onto an account with no usage reading.hasCodexQuotaHeadroomanswers true for unknown usage, which is right for an unbound request and wrong for a bound one. The quota strategy excludes unmeasured destinations through its strictly-cooler compare (CODEX_UNKNOWN_USAGE_SCOREis 101); reset ordering has no such compare and now states it.Verification
preview names the same detour as resolve before any detour is recordedcalls preview first, which is the ordering the existing transient test could not cover because it resolved before previewing.a transient block with nowhere to detour keeps the bindingdrives three 503s onto every account so no detour exists, asserts the thread is still served by and bound to its own account, and asserts it is still there after recovery with no rebind.Checklist
