Summary

• revert registry: prefer npm for codex #10893 so codex prefers aqua:openai/codex again (with npm:@openai/codex as fallback)

Why

The missing codex-code-mode-host issue was already fixed upstream in aquaproj/aqua-registry#56498 (merged 2026-07-06), which switched openai/codex from the loose codex-* asset to the official codex-package-* archives that include bin/codex-code-mode-host (and the rest of the package layout).

That aqua-registry change was already baked into released mise binaries starting with v2026.7.1 (2026-07-07), i.e. before #10893 landed (2026-07-09). I'm not sure why #10893 was still needed after that — happy to be corrected if there's another failure mode I'm missing.

Validation

• Confirmed macOS codex-package-*-apple-darwin.tar.gz for rust-v0.144.0 contains bin/codex-code-mode-host (archive listing / file presence only — did not run Codex end-to-end on macOS)
• Confirmed mise install aqua:openai/codex@0.144.0 on Linux with 2026.7.5 extracts the package archive and leaves bin/codex-code-mode-host in place; bin-paths points at .../bin

Poem

A bunny hops through Codex’s queue,
Aqua leads with ears held high.
The old npm test bids adieu,
While tidy registry entries fly.
Thump, thump—priority’s changed!

Greptile Summary

This PR reverts #10893 by restoring aqua:openai/codex as the preferred backend for the codex registry entry, with npm:@openai/codex as fallback. The upstream aqua-registry fix (aquaproj/aqua-registry#56498) that addressed the missing codex-code-mode-host binary was already included in mise v2026.7.1, making the npm-first workaround unnecessary.

• registry/codex.toml: backend list reordered back to [\"aqua:openai/codex\", \"npm:@openai/codex\"]
• src/registry.rs: removes the test that asserted npm was the first backend, since it only validated the now-reverted ordering

Confidence Score: 5/5

Safe to merge — a minimal two-line revert restoring the original aqua-first backend ordering now that the upstream registry fix is in production.

The change is a targeted revert of a single ordering decision in a TOML file and its accompanying test. The upstream fix is documented and the author confirmed the corrected archive layout on both macOS and Linux.

No files require special attention.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
