I think this is already captured in #9807.

If you add the following to ~/.codex/config.toml it will

map 'alt-i' to increasing reasoning effort (from "low" to "medium", "high", "x-high")
map 'alt-i' to increasing reasoning effort (from "x-high", to "high", "medium", "low")
map 'alt-f' to turning fast mode on+off
Remove the conflicting keybindings that prevent you from mapping "alt-d" and "alt-f"

[tui.keymap]
chat.decrease_reasoning_effort = "alt-d"
chat.increase_reasoning_effort = "alt-i"
global.toggle_fast_mode = "alt-f"
editor.delete_forward_word = ["alt-delete", "ctrl-delete", "ctrl-shift-delete"]
editor.move_word_right = ["alt-right", "ctrl-right"]
