I would not recommend of getting in the habit of just trusting that.

"For the record, I just asked Astra to verify that Codex does NOT do this, and it doesn't. Thanks for not screwing this up, OpenAI."

Astra checked Codex's source code, which is what gets compiled and shipped by Arch Linux. Found and linked the User-Agent builder code.

That's sufficient for me.

Hosted search service sounds like its referring to the alpha/v1 web_run hosted search api. Alternative to the hosted websearch tool, which is a tool- rather than api surface
