# fn-2.7 Add codex backend smoke tests

## Description

Add smoke tests for codex backend.

### Tests to add

1. **In smoke_test.sh** (if codex available):
   ```bash
   if command -v codex >/dev/null 2>&1; then
     echo "--- codex check ---"
     scripts/flowctl codex check --json
   fi
   ```

2. **In ralph_smoke_test.sh**:
   - Add codex stub similar to claude stub
   - Test with PLAN_REVIEW=codex WORK_REVIEW=codex
   - Verify receipts have `"mode": "codex"`

3. **Optional: ralph_e2e_codex_test.sh**:
   - Full e2e with real codex (like ralph_e2e_rp_test.sh)
   - Only runs if codex available and authenticated

### Files to modify

- `plugins/flow-next/scripts/smoke_test.sh`
- `plugins/flow-next/scripts/ralph_smoke_test.sh`
- `plugins/flow-next/scripts/ralph_e2e_codex_test.sh` (new, optional)
## Acceptance
- [ ] smoke_test.sh includes codex check (if available)
- [ ] ralph_smoke_test.sh has codex stub
- [ ] ralph_smoke_test.sh passes with PLAN_REVIEW=codex WORK_REVIEW=codex
- [ ] Receipts verified with `"mode": "codex"`
- [ ] All existing tests still pass (no regression)
## Done summary
Added codex backend smoke tests: codex check, codex impl-review --help, codex plan-review --help. Tests gracefully handle codex not installed.
