Option to archive (or make ephemeral) Codex threads created for delegate_task children
#19047
Codex children started by delegate_task are created as ordinary, persisted Codex threads (originator: "T3 Code", source: "vscode") in the shared CODEX_HOME. They show up in the Codex app's recent list next to real conversations, and local tools that index ~/.codex/sessions can't tell them apart from main threads. Unlike Codex's own subagents, nothing in the rollout marks them as children.
Proposal
An opt-in setting for Codex delegate_task children, either:
archive the native Codex thread (thread/archive) once the delegated task is terminal, or
