Codex now applies custom code-review rules from AGENTS.md

Codex can now read review rules from AGENTS.md, letting teams encode the context that usually lives in a few reviewers’ heads and apply it consistently across pull requests.

OpenAI recommends starting with a repository-specific mistake, then testing one change that should trigger the rule, one safe counterexample, and one unrelated change. The point is to make the review signal useful without creating noise.
