# codex-utils-cargo-bin runfiles strategy We disable the directory-based runfiles strategy and rely on the manifest strategy across all platforms. This avoids Windows path length issues and keeps behavior consistent in local and remote builds on all platforms. Bazel sets `RUNFILES_MANIFEST_FILE`, and the `codex-utils-cargo-bin` helpers use the `runfiles` crate to resolve runfiles via that manifest. Function behavior: - `cargo_bin`: reads `CARGO_BIN_EXE_*` environment variables (set by Cargo or Bazel) and resolves them via the runfiles manifest when `RUNFILES_MANIFEST_FILE` is present. When not under runfiles, it only accepts absolute paths from `CARGO_BIN_EXE_*` and returns an error otherwise. - `find_resource!`: used by tests to locate fixtures. It chooses the Bazel runfiles resolution path when `RUNFILES_MANIFEST_FILE` is set, otherwise it falls back to a `CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR`-relative path for Cargo runs.
