Codex upstream requests normally use SSE even when the downstream client requests a completed response. Some compatible relays return a completed Responses JSON document instead, which previously resulted in empty stream chunks. Read the upstream response once, pass through JSON, and keep the existing SSE aggregation path for stream responses.
…lays The official Codex backend always streams SSE, so non-stream requests continue to use the historical DoStream aggregation path. Compatible relays may return a completed Responses JSON document; for those, the request is executed once and dispatched on the response Content-Type (JSON passthrough / SSE aggregation), without reissuing the request. Adds a relay-SSE aggregation test and asserts the official path never calls Do().

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughCodex outbound handling now distinguishes official backends from compatible relays. Official requests retain SSE streaming. Relay responses support JSON pass-through and SSE aggregation. Responses Lite and reasoning-context headers are controlled by backend and client-provided values. ChangesCodex transport and header routing
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The change can misclassify relay hosts, forward private protocol headers to third parties, force an incompatible streaming path, and panic when a transformer is unavailable. These create concrete security, compatibility, and availability risks, so the PR is not merge-ready until the major issues are fixed. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Match the official Codex host, not a substring.
isOfficialCodexBaseURL uses strings.Contains on the whole base URL. A relay URL such as https://chatgpt.com.relay.example/v1 or https://proxy.example/chatgpt.com/v1 is then classified as official. Two consequences follow for that relay: the executor takes the SSE-only doStreamAndAggregate path, and TransformRequest forwards the private X-OpenAI-Internal-Codex-Responses-Lite header to a third-party host. Parse the URL and compare the hostname instead.
🛠️ Proposed fix using hostname comparison
func isOfficialCodexBaseURL(baseURL string) bool {
- return strings.Contains(strings.ToLower(baseURL), "chatgpt.com")
+ parsed, err := url.Parse(strings.TrimSpace(baseURL))
+ if err != nil {
+ return false
+ }
+
+ host := strings.ToLower(parsed.Hostname())
+
+ return host == "chatgpt.com" || strings.HasSuffix(host, ".chatgpt.com")
}Add the net/url import for this change.
