ak codex-agent-runtime unregister
Idempotently remove ak-agent-runtime from ~/.codex/config.toml.
Removes the AgentKit-managed [mcp_servers.ak-agent-runtime] entry, leaving every other entry under [mcp_servers.*] intact. A missing entry is not an error: exits 0 with Changed=false.
Who it's for: Power devs removing or reconfiguring the Codex adapter for AgentKit.
When to use it: When you want to stop Codex from auto-loading the AgentKit MCP runtime, or before switching to a different MCP server configuration.
What changes on disk: Writes ~/.codex/config.toml (CODEX_HOME or --codex-home overrides the base dir). Idempotent: a missing entry exits 0 unchanged.
