Codex OAuth tokens expire after ~1 hour. This fix adds an authentication check before starting tasks that also attempts to trigger token refresh. Changes: - Added ensureAuthenticated() that runs 'codex login status' which can trigger a token refresh if valid refresh_token exists - Increased timeout to 10s to allow for refresh operation - Improved error message to suggest API key auth for permanent solution: printenv OPENAI_API_KEY | codex login --with-api-key API key auth doesn't expire and is the recommended solution for users who don't want to re-authenticate periodically.
