Stabilize permissions popup selection tests (#14966)
## What is flaky
The permissions popup tests in the TUI are flaky, especially on Windows.
They assume the popup opens on a specific row and that a fixed number of
`Up` or `Down` keypresses will land on a specific preset. They also
match popup text too loosely, so a non-selected row can satisfy the
assertion.

## Why it was flaky
These tests were asserting incidental rendering details rather than the
actual selected permission preset. On Windows, the initial selection can
differ from non-Windows runs. Some tests also searched the entire popup
for text like `Guardian Approvals` or `(current)`, which can match a row
that is visible but not selected. Once the popup order or current preset
shifted slightly, a test could fail even though the UI behavior was
still correct.

## How this PR fixes it
This PR adds helpers that identify the selected popup row and selected
preset name directly. The tests now assert the current selection by
name, navigate to concrete target presets instead of assuming a fixed
number of keypresses, and explicitly set the reviewer state in the cases
that require `Guardian Approvals` to be current.

## Why this fix fixes the flakiness
The assertions now track semantic state, not fragile text placement.
Navigation is target-based instead of order-based, so
Windows/non-Windows row differences and harmless popup layout changes no
longer break the tests. That removes the scheduler- and
platform-sensitive assumptions that made the popup suite intermittent.

npm i -g @openai/codex
or brew install --cask codex

Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.

Codex CLI splash


If you want Codex in your code editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), install in your IDE.
If you want the desktop app experience, run codex app or visit the Codex App page.
If you are looking for the cloud-based agent from OpenAI, Codex Web, go to chatgpt.com/codex.


Quickstart

Installing and running Codex CLI

Install globally with your preferred package manager:

# Install using npm
npm install -g @openai/codex
# Install using Homebrew
brew install --cask codex

Then simply run codex to get started.

You can also go to the latest GitHub Release and download the appropriate binary for your platform.

Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these:

  • macOS
    • Apple Silicon/arm64: codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
    • x86_64 (older Mac hardware): codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
  • Linux
    • x86_64: codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
    • arm64: codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz

Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl), so you likely want to rename it to codex after extracting it.

Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan

Run codex and select Sign in with ChatGPT. We recommend signing into your ChatGPT account to use Codex as part of your Plus, Pro, Team, Edu, or Enterprise plan. Learn more about what's included in your ChatGPT plan.

You can also use Codex with an API key, but this requires additional setup.
