Fixes the four correctness/hang issues in the gbot codex desktop-shim wrapper + Python stdio↔WS bridge from the adversarial review of PR #54. All four hypotheses were reproduced before coding (bridge exiting 1 after writing a greeting frame, self-resolving fallback, REAL-gated bridge skip, blocking post-upgrade socket).

Fixes (must-fix 1–4)

  1. Fail-open after stdout written (critical) — desktop-shim-bridge.js: the exit-commit now counts the first stdout frame (first_msg) as well as stdin bytes. A daemon that writes even one JSONL frame then drops exits EXIT_MID_SESSION (2), so the wrapper exits for a Desktop reconnect instead of exec'ing real Codex on dirty stdout (exit 1).
  2. Self-fallback exec loop — desktop-shim.js: a command -v codex fallback that -ef-matches $0 or $CODEX_CLI_PATH is refused with a log line; the wrapper fails with "no runnable codex" instead of looping forever.
  3. Bridge gated on REAL — wrapper now attempts the bridge on BRIDGE + python3 + preflight only; REAL gates just passthrough/fallthrough at the bottom.
  4. Unbounded post-upgrade I/O — new CODEX_BRIDGE_IO_TIMEOUT (default 30s) replaces settimeout(None) after the WS upgrade, bounding sendall/recv. Timeouts flow through the commit-aware exit, so a wedged daemon in an active session exits mid-session instead of hanging Desktop.

Cheap fixes in the same PR

  • uninstall only reports paths that existed before delete (fresh-home uninstall now reports []).
  • Linux status text no longer says "relaunch ChatGPT.app" (exports CODEX_CLI_PATH= instead; darwin text unchanged).

Tests (test/desktop-shim.test.js, 27 → 36, all passing)

  • Bridge greet-then-close with open stdin exits 2 with the greeting on stdout.
  • End-to-end: wrapper + real bridge against a greet-then-close daemon exits 2 with no FAKE-REAL on the stream (the exact reported repro).
  • Wrapper refuses a self codex symlink fallback (exit 1, "no runnable codex", no loop).
  • Wrapper serves the bridge with REAL missing (exit 0).
  • Post-upgrade wedge after a greeting exits 2 in ~2s with CODEX_BRIDGE_IO_TIMEOUT=2 instead of hanging.
  • Static pins: CODEX_BRIDGE_IO_TIMEOUT, stdout commit, no settimeout(None), ungated bridge, self-refusal.
  • uninstall empty/partial reporting; Linux vs darwin status text.

No npm version bump; no merge. The 55 test:unit failures elsewhere are pre-existing on clean main (unrelated codex-bridge route tests, 43 fail without these changes); all 36 desktop-shim tests pass.

…st-upgrade hang

- Bridge commits on first stdout frame as well as stdin bytes, so a
  greet-then-close daemon exits mid-session (2) instead of falling
  through to real Codex on dirty stdout (1).
- Wrapper refuses a command -v codex fallback that resolves to itself
  ($0 / CODEX_CLI_PATH) instead of exec-looping; fails with no runnable
  codex.
- Bridge attempt gated on BRIDGE + python3 + preflight only; REAL only
  gates passthrough/fallthrough.
- Post-upgrade socket I/O bounded by CODEX_BRIDGE_IO_TIMEOUT (30s);
  timeouts exit via the commit-aware mid-session path.
- uninstall only reports paths that existed before delete; Linux status
  no longer says relaunch ChatGPT.app.

P1 Badge Preserve healthy idle WebSocket sessions

ws_connect now leaves IO_TIMEOUT_S on the socket for its entire lifetime, while stdout_writer continuously waits in recv. After any successful exchange, a healthy app-server that sends no frames while the user reads or thinks for more than the default 30 seconds will therefore raise a timeout, set done, and make the bridge exit mid-session, forcing Desktop to reconnect. The existing first-message deadline already bounds startup; subsequent receive idleness should remain valid unless a heartbeat or request-specific deadline proves the connection is wedged.

P2 Badge Quote the Linux export path

When the user's home or a custom CODEX_HOME contains whitespace, this prints guidance such as export CODEX_CLI_PATH=/home/First Last/...; copying it assigns only the prefix and produces an invalid-identifier error for the remainder, so the shim still cannot be activated. Render the wrapper path with shell-safe quoting or escaping.
