fix(codex): align gpt-6-astra with its shipped upstream schema - #3412
Conversation
GPT-6-Astra shipped on 2026-09-03 (openai/codex ed391d4dd #42607). Copy the row verbatim from codex-rs/models-manager/models.json so opencodex stops describing it from a leak-era guess.
The slug was registered speculatively while it was still a leak: it borrowed Sol capability metadata through NATIVE_OPENAI_CAPABILITY_SOURCES, carried a hand-written GPT-6 Astra label, and rode the measured 922k GPT-5.6 clamp. Upstream now ships its own row, so it becomes self-described. Removing the capability source alone would have regressed three things. isGpt56NativeSlug was true only because the source was Sol, and flipping it false sends catalog sync down the else-branch that truncates the ladder at xhigh, dropping the shipped max and ultra rungs. The custom-row label and capability inheritance in provider-fetch and parsing gate on the alias predicate, which a self-described native no longer satisfies. And upstreamNativeEntryForSlug rejected any slug whose source is not gpt-5.6-*, which would have dropped astra from UPSTREAM_NATIVE_ENTRIES entirely. An explicit self-described allowlist admits it; a structural has-a-pinned-entry predicate was rejected because it would also admit gpt-5.5, gpt-5.4 and gpt-5.4-mini into a map that authorizes replacing persisted rows during sync. Two upstream shape differences needed handling. Astra is the first pinned row to ship model_messages.instructions_template without a top-level base_instructions, and that field is what hasNativeCatalogRowShape and both template finders test for, so the projection derives it. And the row opencodex itself wrote from a guess looks genuine to shouldUpgradeToUpstreamEntry, so it would have survived every future sync and permanently shadowed the real metadata; SELF_AUTHORED_NATIVE_ROWS lets the pin replace it once.
CODEX_GPT5_IDENTITY_RE matched only GPT-5(.x). Codex writes the current generation into that sentence and bumps it: gpt-6-astra ships "You are Codex, an agent based on GPT-6." (upstream #42607). A GPT-6-era prompt routed to a third-party provider therefore kept the Codex-on-GPT-6 claim, which is the exact misattribution this chokepoint exists to remove. Widen the major version to a wildcard and pin the GPT-6 wording in the regression test.
Assert against the projected identity, the 872k long window that measured 922k before the patch, the ladder that catalog sync would otherwise truncate, and the allowlist boundary that keeps gpt-5.5/gpt-5.4/gpt-5.4-mini out of UPSTREAM_NATIVE_ENTRIES. The devlog unit records the audit rounds, including two wrong adapter_eof diagnoses that the reviewer falsified before the real cause was found.

When providers.openai.modelContextWindows["gpt-6-astra"] or a custom Astra row requests a window above 272k, removing Astra from NATIVE_GPT56_FAMILY makes narrowToLimits use the lowering-only branch (Math.min(raw, overlay)), where raw is 272k. Consequently the documented 872k opt-in is unreachable and both the catalog window and max-input limit remain 272k, whereas this configuration could raise Astra before this commit. Give Astra a promotion path capped at its own 872k ceiling and cover the configured-window case.

When a later Codex release provides a genuine Astra row with a different display_name, this condition treats it as self-authored and mergeCatalogEntriesForSync replaces the entire row with the pinned 2026-09-03 snapshot, discarding any newer context, tool, or capability fields. The one-time migration should recognize the known legacy signature, such as the exact "GPT-6 Astra" label and provisional description, rather than every Astra label that differs from this snapshot.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.
CREDITS.md carried a real contributor work address and two account-linked noreply addresses verbatim, so privacy:scan failed on dev and took two CI jobs down with it: the gates job runs the scan directly, and tests/privacy-scan-meta-key.test.ts imports scanText from the scanner module, which runs the whole scan as a side effect of the import. The passage exists to teach which trailer address to use when carrying work, and that lesson survives masking: what matters is the SHAPE of each address, not the identity behind it. Replace the work address with an example.test placeholder the scanner allows, and describe the noreply forms instead of spelling them out.

Make the Astra row oracle deterministic and mandatory.
010_wp2_catalog_alignment.md:117-118 permits skipping the comparison when the checkout is absent, while :27 reads mutable origin/main. The current test only checks hard-coded literals in tests/codex-catalog.test.ts:3406 and has no external-row comparison or failure path. A mistranscribed row can therefore pass release verification. Pin the oracle to ed391d4dd21396715b66c278e6b451897672c93c, whose codex-rs/models-manager/models.json contains the gpt-6-astra row, or use a committed fixture/digest. Fail when the oracle is unavailable.
