The Codex extension does not currently seem to work in a codeserver environment. The extension gets stuck during initialization and the output panel produces the following:

2026-02-10 16:38:34.682 [info] Activating Codex extension
2026-02-10 16:38:34.682 [info] [CodexMcpConnection] Spawning codex app-server

2026-02-10 16:38:45.958 [error] [CodexMcpConnection] CLI: string(len=449)

This error was introduced with version 0.4.69 of the Codex extension. Everything works as expected with version 0.4.68

What steps can reproduce the bug?

1. inside a codeserver environment install codex with npm i -g @openai/codex
2. setup access via access API key.
3. install Codex extension with version > 0.4.68
4. observe Codex extension being stuck during initialization

What is the expected behavior?

For the Codex extension to start up normally and provide the user with an interface to type, manage conversations, etc.
