Publish runnable DotSlash package for argument-comment lint (#15198)
## Why

To date, the argument-comment linter introduced in
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/14651 had to be built from source
to run, which can be a bit slow (both for local dev and when it is run
in CI). Because of the potential slowness, I did not wire it up to run
as part of `just clippy` or anything like that. As a result, I have seen
a number of occasions where folks put up PRs that violate the lint, see
it fail in CI, and then have to put up their PR again.

The goal of this PR is to pre-build a runnable version of the linter and
then make it available via a DotSlash file. Once it is available, I will
update `just clippy` and other touchpoints to make it a natural part of
the dev cycle so lint violations should get flagged _before_ putting up
a PR for review.

To get things started, we will build the DotSlash file as part of an
alpha release. Though I don't expect the linter to change often, so I'll
probably change this to only build as part of mainline releases once we
have a working DotSlash file. (Ultimately, we should probably move the
linter into its own repo so it can have its own release cycle.)

## What Changed
- add a reusable `rust-release-argument-comment-lint.yml` workflow that
builds host-specific archives for macOS arm64, Linux arm64/x64, and
Windows x64
- wire `rust-release.yml` to publish the `argument-comment-lint`
DotSlash manifest on all releases for now, including alpha tags
- package a runnable layout instead of a bare library

The Unix archive layout is:

```text
argument-comment-lint/
  bin/
    argument-comment-lint
    cargo-dylint
  lib/
    libargument_comment_lint@nightly-2025-09-18-<target>.dylib|so
```

On Windows the same layout is published as a `.zip`, with `.exe` and
`.dll` filenames instead.

DotSlash resolves the package entrypoint to
`argument-comment-lint/bin/argument-comment-lint`. That runner finds the
sibling bundled `cargo-dylint` binary plus the single packaged Dylint
library under `lib/`, then invokes `cargo-dylint dylint --lib-path
<that-library>` with the repo's default lint settings.

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.
