* feat(providers): add GPT-5.6 model family
* fix(chatgpt-web): resume temporary chat handoffs
* fix(codex): auto-merge discovery, filter denylist, revalidate on lifecycle
Restore live/GitHub auto-merge for Codex catalogs, drop models via
explicit denylist (GPT-5.4 family), and run scrub+live re-sync once on
first-start, app upgrade, or setup completion. Success log:
kill deprecated models complete.
* fix(codex): preserve live catalog reconciliation
Expose remote-only Codex models without dropping user custom entries, and complete lifecycle revalidation only after a successful internal sync. Keep credentialed self-fetches pinned to the active dashboard listener.

Release v3.8.42 — full CHANGELOG in CHANGELOG.md.
CI: 103 checks green incl. CodeQL (all languages), Semgrep, all 8 unit shards,
coverage, Node 24 compat, and integration tests. Full unit suite validated
locally: 19437 pass / 0 fail. The 3 red checks are advisory and do not gate
main (no required status checks): SonarCloud/SonarQube new-code coverage gate,
and PR Test Policy (test-masking detector flagging the legitimate dead-Phind
provider removal in #5530 — reviewed, correct).
Includes cycle-close reconciliation + repair of inherited base-red tests from
#5480/#5527/#5427/#5521 that the PR->release fast-path did not exercise.
