responses.create re-walks the entire request body against the
ResponseCreateParams union graph client-side while holding the GIL.
#93650 documents that walk wedging for 12+ hours on a ~1.4 MB
conversation, starving every other thread including the TTFB/stale
watchdogs — and no socket kill can unblock a pre-network hang.
Hermes payloads are JSON round-trips and already wire format, so the
bulk fields (input, tools) are now routed through extra_body, which the
SDK merges into the JSON body after the transform. Guarded by a
plain-JSON check (anything else keeps the typed path) and a
HERMES_CODEX_SDK_TRANSFORM=1 escape hatch. Applied to both the primary
stream path and the auxiliary adapter.
