457 sites carried an upstream prefix into every surface a user reaches — shell
exports, docs, CI, the SDK. CODEX_ is not our name and it was never going to
stop arriving on its own: it is what upstream writes, and every sync brings more.
Two namespaces, because they answer different questions.
DEV_* the app's own configuration — DEV_HOME, DEV_PROFILE, the rest
HANZO_API_KEY a credential for the Hanzo stack, which is not app config
CODEX_API_KEY held the literal string "CODEX_API_KEY", so the rename moves the
value and not just the constant. It becomes HANZO_API_KEY, which is what
create_hanzo_provider already reads through HANZO_MACHINE_ENV_KEYS — one name
for one credential instead of two spellings of it.
vendor/ is untouched, which is the point of vendor/: upstream code keeps
upstream names, and the boundary is a path rather than a habit.
Our history is just-every's with author emails rewritten, so the graphs are
disjoint and git finds no merge base. Supplied one by hand: d1f1f51a41, the
just-every commit matching our Oct-2025 fork point (22 files apart). 9618
upstream commits, 7004 files, +1.81M/-159k, 37 conflicts.
Resolution:
- Upstream code where our side was the Oct-2025 prototype of a feature they
have since reimplemented 3-5x larger (agent_runs, browser_sessions,
history_cell/{agent,browser}, the vt100 harness and its snapshots).
- Upstream's config.rs module split (builder/defaults/sources/validation)
kept; zen5-coder and the provider-follows-model rule re-applied on top.
- Ours where the file IS the identity: README, package.json, postinstall,
release notes pipeline, integration-zed.
- Hybrid where upstream improved a file we had branded: updates.rs (their
release-repo migration, our hanzoai/dev), release.yml (their fail-fast npm
auth check, our package name), chatwidget.rs (their turn handling, our
HANZO_USER_KEY hint), exec human output (their 237 lines, our banner).
Superseded and dropped deliberately: our resume_command_name() coder-alias
hack — upstream's derive_resume_command_name() reads the invocation basename
generically, which yields "dev" for us.
LLM.md now records the real topology and the sync point; AGENTS.md and
CLAUDE.md are symlinks to it again. Single parent on purpose: adopting
jecode/main as a second parent would re-import 13,742 commits carrying the
upstream author emails a prior rewrite deliberately removed.
Version 0.2.188 -> 0.2.189.
