Upgrade Codex CLI to rust-v0.146.1 for safer cyber-model auto-review defaults

Pin or upgrade OpenAI Codex CLI to rust-v0.146.1 so cyber-capable models use the backported safer automatic-review defaults, and train the team to read the new terminal explanations when permissions change.

Why this loop

rust-v0.146.1 is the 0.146 backport of #37057. It does two things only: apply safer automatic-review defaults for cyber-capable models, and explain permission changes in the terminal interface. Any earlier 0.146.x/rust-v0.146.0 binary still uses the pre-backport auto-review defaults on those models and will not show the new permission-change explanations. Pinning this patch is how you take the safer defaults without waiting for a later line.

Proposed actions

  1. Upgrade every Codex CLI install to GitHub release rust-v0.146.1 (https://github.com/openai/codex/releases/tag/rust-v0.146.1). If you install via npm, pin the package to 0.146.1, replace any rust-v0.146.0 or earlier 0.146.x pin, and commit the lockfile.
  2. After install, run codex --version on each machine and in CI; reject the change unless the output is 0.146.1 or rust-v0.146.1.
  3. Search repo, dotfiles, and agent launch scripts for automatic-review / auto-review overrides that apply to cyber-capable models. Remove any override that restores pre-#37057 review behavior so the rust-v0.146.1 safer defaults stay in effect.
  4. Send the team this rule: on rust-v0.146.1, when the Codex terminal prints an explanation of a permission change, read that explanation fully before accepting, denying, or changing permissions.
  5. Until a host reports rust-v0.146.1 / 0.146.1, do not run cyber-capable models with automatic review on that host.
