feat: anti-detection hardening — curl TLS, auto-version, jitter & Chromium headers

- Replace fetch() with curl subprocess for POST /codex/responses to match
native TLS fingerprint (Cloudflare evasion)
- Auto-apply version updates from Sparkle appcast to config file and runtime
- Add timing jitter to all fixed intervals (refresh, retry, backoff, polling)
to eliminate automation signatures
- Add sec-ch-ua, sec-ch-ua-mobile, sec-ch-ua-platform, sec-fetch-* headers
to match Chromium/Electron request fingerprint
- Add CookieJar.captureRaw() for Set-Cookie handling from curl responses

-## Error Format
-
-All errors follow the OpenAI error format for `/v1/*` endpoints:

-    "type": "invalid_request_error",
-    "param": null,
-    "code": "error_code"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-Management endpoints (`/auth/*`) use a simpler format:
-```json
-{ "error": "Human-readable description" }
-```
-
----
-
-## Quick Start
-
-```bash
-# 1. Start the proxy
-npx tsx src/index.ts
-
-# 2. Add a token (or use the web UI at http://localhost:8080)
-curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/auth/token \
-  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-  -d '{"token": "eyJhbGci..."}'
-
-# 3. Chat (streaming)
-curl http://localhost:8080/v1/chat/completions \
-  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-  -d '{
-    "model": "codex",
-    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
-    "stream": true
-  }'
-
-# 4. Check account quota
-curl http://localhost:8080/auth/accounts
-
-# 5. Check official Codex usage limits
-curl "http://localhost:8080/auth/accounts?quota=true"

-# Codex Proxy 实现记录
-
-## 项目目标
-
-将 Codex Desktop App（免费）的 API 访问能力提取出来，暴露为标准的 OpenAI `/v1/chat/completions` 兼容接口，使任何支持 OpenAI API 的客户端都能直接调用。
-
----
-
-## 关键发现：WHAM API vs Codex Responses API
-
-### 最初的方案（失败）
-
-项目最初使用 **WHAM API**（`/backend-api/wham/tasks`）作为后端。这是 Codex Cloud 模式使用的 API，工作流程为：
-
-1. 创建 cloud environment（需要绑定 GitHub 仓库）
-2. 创建 task → 得到 task_id
-3. 轮询 task turn 状态直到完成
-4. 从 turn 的 output_items 中提取回复
-
-**失败原因**：
-- 免费账户没有 cloud environment
-- `listEnvironments` 返回 500
-- `worktree_snapshots/upload_url` 返回 404（功能未开启）
-- 创建的 task 立即失败，返回 `unknown_error`
-
-### 发现真正的 API
-
-通过分析 Codex Desktop 的 CLI 二进制文件（`codex.exe`）中的字符串，发现 CLI 实际使用的是 **Responses API**，而不是 WHAM API。
-
-进一步测试发现正确的端点是：
-
-```
-POST https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/responses
-```
-
-#### 端点探索过程
-
-| 端点 | 状态 | 说明 |
-|------|------|------|
-| `/backend-api/responses` | 404 | 不存在 |
-| `api.openai.com/v1/responses` | 401 | ChatGPT token 没有 API scope |
-| **`/backend-api/codex/responses`** | **400 → 200** | **正确端点** |
-
-#### 必需字段（逐步试错发现）
-
-1. 第一次请求 → `400: "Instructions are required"` → 需要 `instructions` 字段
-2. 加上 instructions → `400: "Store must be set to false"` → 需要 `store: false`
-3. 加上 store: false → `400: "Stream must be set to true"` → 需要 `stream: true`
-4. 全部加上 → `200 OK` ✓
-
----
-
-## API 格式
-
-### 请求格式
-
-```json
-{
-  "model": "gpt-5.1-codex-mini",
-  "instructions": "You are a helpful assistant.",
-  "input": [
-    { "role": "user", "content": "你好" }
-  ],
-  "stream": true,
-  "store": false,
-  "reasoning": { "effort": "medium" }
-}
-```
-
-**关键约束**：
-- `stream` 必须为 `true`（不支持非流式）
-- `store` 必须为 `false`
-- `instructions` 必填（对应 system message）
-
-### 响应格式（SSE 流）
-
-Codex Responses API 返回标准的 OpenAI Responses API SSE 事件：
-
-```
-event: response.created
-data: {"type":"response.created","response":{"id":"resp_xxx","status":"in_progress",...}}
-
-event: response.output_text.delta
-data: {"type":"response.output_text.delta","delta":"你","item_id":"msg_xxx",...}
-
-event: response.output_text.delta
-data: {"type":"response.output_text.delta","delta":"好","item_id":"msg_xxx",...}
-
-event: response.output_text.done
-data: {"type":"response.output_text.done","text":"你好！",...}
-
-event: response.completed
-data: {"type":"response.completed","response":{"id":"resp_xxx","status":"completed","usage":{...},...}}
-```
-
-主要事件类型：
-- `response.created` — 响应开始
-- `response.in_progress` — 处理中
-- `response.output_item.added` — 输出项添加（reasoning 或 message）
-- `response.output_text.delta` — **文本增量（核心内容）**
-- `response.output_text.done` — 文本完成
-- `response.completed` — 响应完成（包含 usage 统计）
-
-### 认证方式
-
-使用 Codex Desktop App 的 ChatGPT OAuth JWT token，需要以下请求头：
-
-```
-Authorization: Bearer <jwt_token>
-ChatGPT-Account-Id: <account_id>
-originator: Codex Desktop
-User-Agent: Codex Desktop/260202.0859 (win32; x64)
-Content-Type: application/json
-Accept: text/event-stream
-```
-
----
-
-## 代码实现
-
-### 新增文件
-
-#### `src/proxy/codex-api.ts` — Codex Responses API 客户端
-
-负责：
-- 构建请求并发送到 `/backend-api/codex/responses`
-- 解析 SSE 流，逐个 yield 事件对象
-- 错误处理（超时、HTTP 错误等）
-
-```typescript
-// 核心方法
-async createResponse(request: CodexResponsesRequest): Promise<Response>
-async *parseStream(response: Response): AsyncGenerator<CodexSSEEvent>
-```
-
-#### `src/translation/openai-to-codex.ts` — 请求翻译
-
-将 OpenAI Chat Completions 请求格式转换为 Codex Responses API 格式：
-
-| OpenAI Chat Completions | Codex Responses API |
-|------------------------|---------------------|
-| `messages[role=system]` | `instructions` |
-| `messages[role=user/assistant]` | `input[]` |
-| `model` | `model`（经过 resolveModelId 映射） |
-| `reasoning_effort` | `reasoning.effort` |
-| `stream` | 固定 `true` |
-| — | `store: false`（固定） |
-
-#### `src/translation/codex-to-openai.ts` — 响应翻译
-
-将 Codex Responses SSE 流转换为 OpenAI Chat Completions 格式：
-
-**流式模式** (`streamCodexToOpenAI`)：
-```
-Codex: response.output_text.delta {"delta":"你"}
-  ↓
-OpenAI: data: {"choices":[{"delta":{"content":"你"}}]}
-
-Codex: response.completed
-  ↓
-OpenAI: data: {"choices":[{"delta":{},"finish_reason":"stop"}]}
-OpenAI: data: [DONE]
-```
-
-**非流式模式** (`collectCodexResponse`)：
-- 消费整个 SSE 流，收集所有 text delta
-- 拼接为完整文本
-- 返回标准 `chat.completion` JSON 响应（包含 usage）
-
-### 修改文件
-
-#### `src/routes/chat.ts` — 路由处理器（重写）
-
-**之前**：使用 WhamApi 创建 task → 轮询 turn → 提取结果
-**之后**：使用 CodexApi 发送 responses 请求 → 直接流式/收集结果
-
-核心流程简化为：
-```
-1. 验证认证
-2. 解析请求 (ChatCompletionRequestSchema)
-3. translateToCodexRequest() 转换格式
-4. codexApi.createResponse() 发送请求
-5a. 流式：streamCodexToOpenAI() → 逐块写入 SSE
-5b. 非流式：collectCodexResponse() → 返回 JSON
-```
-
-#### `src/index.ts` — 入口文件（简化）
-
-移除了 WHAM environment 自动发现逻辑（不再需要）。
-
----
-
-## 之前修复的 Bug（WHAM 阶段）
-
-在切换到 Codex Responses API 之前，还修复了 WHAM API 相关的三个 bug：
-
-1. **`turn_status` vs `status` 字段名不匹配** — WHAM API 返回 `turn_status`，但代码检查 `status`，导致轮询永远不匹配，超时 300 秒
-2. **`getTaskTurn` 响应结构嵌套** — API 返回 `{ task, user_turn, turn }` 但代码把整个响应当作 `WhamTurn`，导致 `output_items` 为 `undefined`
-3. **失败的 turn 返回 200 空内容** — 没有检查 `failed` 状态，直接返回空 content
-
-这些修复在 `src/types/wham.ts`、`src/proxy/wham-api.ts`、`src/translation/stream-adapter.ts` 中。
-
