`container exec --env` does not override the run-time environment on Apple
Container — it appends. The launch path baked a token-less `*_PROXY` into
`container run` and relied on the exec-time, token-bearing value superseding
it, so the agent's `environ` ended up with two `HTTPS_PROXY` entries,
token-less first.
Which entry a runtime reads is then luck. Node reads the last, so Claude
bottles picked up the token and worked. Rust's `std::env::var` reads the
first, so Codex proxied with no identity token at all; `/resolve` requires a
matching (source_ip, identity_token) pair and fail-closes, so every request
from a Codex bottle was denied — its model calls, its `wss://` reconnects,
and its MCP servers alike. The registry row was correct the whole time,
which is what made this read as a registration bug.
Drop the run-time proxy vars entirely. A token-less proxy URL has no
legitimate consumer: the init process is `sleep` and everything that
egresses arrives by exec. Its only benefit was a tidy 403 for unattributed
callers, which is not worth silently dropping attribution for — and a
process that egresses before the exec-time env still fails closed, since the
agent network is host-only and the gateway is the only route off it.
Also corrects the two comments that asserted the false "exec --env wins"
invariant, so the next reader doesn't rebuild the same assumption.
