fix(server): switching Codex accounts releases the old account's writer - #36326
Rebuilt from origin/main as one commit; the original branch was not used as a base. Cause: a cross-instance switch moves the provider-thread row to the new session in the same commit that queues the old session's detach, so ProviderSessionManager.detach, which picks threads to unload by filtering the projection on the old session id, found none, sent no thread/unsubscribe and cancelled the idle unload. The old account's app-server kept the native thread and its writer lock, and the new account's thread/resume failed with 'already has an active writer'. Fix: (1) detach also unloads the provider thread the session recorded holding for the app thread (the idle-unload record), taken from the PR's approach after checking it; (2) unloadThread gains an optional awaitClosed flag, set only by detach, and the Codex adapter then waits for thread/closed (when Codex frees the writer lock) for at most 2 seconds. If that wait runs out once, the app-server is marked as not closing on unsubscribe and no later unload waits. This answers the round-3 finding: worst case is one 2 s wait per app-server instead of 10 s per native thread, and idle and linked-environment unloads never wait, as on main. The finding's --strict-config case no longer exists on main: c642c4b passes thread_unload_delay_secs=0 regardless of launch args, so the wait can only run out on a user launch-arg override of that key or a Codex without it. Not shown: on Codex 0.169.0 with two app-servers on one CODEX_HOME, the second's thread/resume succeeded immediately after the first's unsubscribe reply in 3 of 3 runs; the lock is held at the reply and released about 7 ms later with thread/closed, so the close wait covers a narrow race I did not reproduce, while the missing unsubscribe is the reproducible cause. The account switch was not run end to end in the real app. One existing ProviderSessionManager test's expectations changed: detaching a thread whose provider thread is absent from the projection now unloads it. No open pull request exists for the pushed branch, so nothing was watched.
Configure two Codex provider instances with separate account credentials and shadow homes sharing native session storage. In T3, create a conversation on account A, send a message, and wait for completion. Select account B in that same conversation and send another message; repeat B to A. Main can report 'This conversation is open in another Codex client' because the previous T3-managed app-server retains the writer. With this change and the default launch arguments, the previous session should unsubscribe, await thread/closed, and let the selected account continue the same native conversation. These steps were derived from the issue and PR evidence, not executed during screening.

Tests
vp run check:changed: pass (format, lint, knip, graphql, typecheck of 27 packages, 3 test files / 235 tests) after one format fix. vp test run on CodexAdapterV2.test.ts -t 'a detach unload waits': pass 6 of 6 repeated runs. With the two source files stashed, both new tests fail: 'expected [] to deeply equal [ native-thread ]' (ProviderSessionManager) and 'the unload must still wait for thread/closed' (CodexAdapterV2). Codex 0.169.0 app-server probe with thread_unload_delay_secs=0: after a real turn, unsubscribe replied 'unsubscribed' with the writer lock still held, thread/closed arrived 7 ms later and the lock was gone. Two-app-server probe on one CODEX_HOME: resume from the second server succeeded 3 of 3 right after the unsubscribe reply and 2 of 2 after thread/closed.
Not in this change
The PR's codexLaunchArgs change and its test: main already passes thread_unload_delay_secs=0 to every app-server launch through c642c4b.
The PR's unconditional wait for thread/closed on every unload: replaced by an opt-in wait bounded to 2 seconds that stops after the first timeout.
A user launch arg that overrides thread_unload_delay_secs, or a Codex without that key, still leaves the old account holding the writer until Codex's own unload delay passes; T3 cannot force the close there.
ProviderSessionManager still logs and swallows an unload that times out or fails during detach, so the switch proceeds and the new account's resume reports the conflict if the lock is still held.
Whether Codex closes an unsubscribed thread that still has background terminals was not checked; if it does not, that app-server stops waiting on later detach unloads, which is main's behaviour.

Proof captured by GPT-6.1 Sol and checked by Claude Opus 5.5
Switching a thread to another Codex instance moves its provider-thread row
to the new session in the same commit that queues the old session's detach.
Detach picked the threads to unload from the projection by session id, so it
found none, sent no thread/unsubscribe and cancelled the idle unload. The old
account's app-server kept the native thread and its writer lock, and the new
account's resume failed with "already has an active writer".
Detach now also unloads the thread the session recorded holding for the app
thread. A detach unload then waits for Codex's thread/closed, which is when
the writer lock is freed, for at most two seconds. An app-server that lets
that wait run out (a launch-arg override of thread_unload_delay_secs, or a
Codex too old to have it) is not waited on again.

Macroscope's review found this PR requires human approval — The change preserves the old account’s held thread and waits briefly for Codex to release its writer during handoff. An unresolved review concern identifies creation and fork paths that may still leave the old writer locked, blocking resumption after an account switch.

Walkthrough
Thread detachment now retains pending unload records, identifies unload candidates, and requests provider closure. The Codex adapter can wait for a matching thread/closed notification under specified unsubscribe conditions. A two-second timeout disables further closure waits for the session.

Summary
Track and unload detached threads packages/provider-core/src/server/ProviderAdapter.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/ProviderSessionManager.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/ProviderSessionManager.test.ts
The runtime unload contract adds optional awaitClosed. Detachment retains the pending unload record, includes a held provider thread missing from the projection among unload candidates, and passes awaitClosed: true. Tests cover additional unloads and a provider-instance change.
Wait for Codex thread closure apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/CodexAdapterV2.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Adapters/CodexAdapterV2.test.ts
When closure waiting is requested, the adapter waits for the matching thread/closed notification if the unsubscribe response or an existing close waiter indicates a close is expected. The wait times out after two seconds and disables future closure waits for the session. Tests cover unsubscribe responses, unrelated notifications, repeated unloads, and a missing notification.
Account switching works in the main case. In a narrow case, a thread created or forked just before an account switch may leave the old account's writer lock held, and the new account's resume may then report a conflict. This is a bounded follow-up item, not a merge blocker.

Explanation
The title names the main change: switching Codex accounts now releases the old account's writer. The changeset adds thread unload on detach for threads whose provider-thread row moved to another instance, and an awaitClosed wait for thread/closed in the Codex adapter. The title matches this fix and follows the conventional commit form the template asks for. It is specific and does not use vague terms.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template sections: Problem (cross-instance switch leaves the old app-server holding the writer lock), Change (detach unloads the recorded provider thread; unloadThread gains awaitClosed with a 2 second bounded wait), Scope (fixes a bug, supersedes #30647, links no issue), and Verification (commands run, probe results, and two new failing-without-fix tests). It also names the model and harness that did the work. Gaps: the Scope section does not link an issue showing the bug, though the PR text cites 'the issue' evidence without a link, and the Evidence section is explicitly unfilled ('Being captured'), which the template's verification guidance expects for before/after proof. The description also says the section 'cannot merge' until filled, so it is incomplete on a required item.
Resolution
Link the issue that shows the bug, or state why the fix needs no issue. Complete the Evidence section with the before and after results of the real account switch, or state that this was not checked. Keep the rest of the template structure as it is.

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.
Do not disable closure waits permanently after one slow unload.
If one thread takes more than two seconds to close, this assignment disables closure waits for every later thread on the app-server. A later awaitClosed: true unload then returns after the unsubscribe response, before its matching thread/closed notification. The replacement process can hit the writer-lock conflict this change must prevent.
A timeout does not establish that the app-server cannot close other threads promptly. Preserve closure checks for later unloads, or derive unsupported behavior from an explicit capability instead of one timeout.

Record the native thread when creation or forking succeeds.
The ensureThread and forkThread wrappers cache the returned thread through markProviderThreadLoaded but do not write an idleThreadUnloads record. The detach fallback reads the thread to unload from that record only. If an instance switch moves the row between a successful ensureThread or forkThread and the first resumeThread or startTurn, detach finds no thread to unload. The old app-server can then keep the writer lock, and a later resume can report a writer-lock conflict.
Record the returned provider thread through holdThreadLoaded in both wrappers, as resumeThread and startTurn already do. Confirm that a turn-less hold does not block idle cleanup before applying this change.

…lready pending
An idle unload unsubscribes without waiting for thread/closed. A detach
that unloads the same thread before the close arrives gets notSubscribed
from Codex and returned at once, while the writer lock could still be held.
It now waits whenever a close was already pending.

The automated pipeline stopped on this pull request and will not merge it:
the fix is written and reviewed, but proving it needs something no worker has:
Permanent blocker: Two first-party ChatGPT OAuth accounts are needed to reproduce native Codex writer ownership during account switching, and the VM brief explicitly lists that access as unavailable on every VM. Replay uses generic ACP and cannot demonstrate Codex unsubscribe/thread-closed behavior, writer release, history preservation, or preservation of unrelated work.
It stays open for a person to finish or close.
