I don't follow these tools in too much detail, but isn't Codex a client
for OpenAI's LLMs?  If so, then I think we are currently in a tricky
position where it isn't obvious if we want these packages in GNU ELPA or
NonGNU ELPA, since the LLMs are kind-of-but-perhaps-not SaaSS.  Or that
was at least my last update on the topic.
