+The Codex observer reuses native Chat's shared authenticated HTTP transport.
+Credentials and refresh remain with Codex's existing signed-in account; the
+observer neither copies tokens nor imports user tool/rule configuration. Its
+explicit read-only sandbox, disabled shell/exec/web tools and fixed supplied
+evidence remain in force. A failed provider attempt stays in job history and
+requires an explicit retry after the host problem is repaired.
