 ### Fixes
 
+- CLI/onboarding: forward provider-specific auth flags (e.g. `--openai-api-key`) through the onboarding wizard so they reach provider auth methods via `ctx.opts`, letting `--openai-api-key "$OPENAI_API_KEY"` skip the redundant "use existing env var?" prompt in non-interactive harnesses. (#81669) Thanks @sjf.
 - Plugins: discover provider plugins from `setup.providers[].envVars` credentials during provider discovery while keeping the deprecated `providerAuthEnvVars` fallback. (#81542) Thanks @JARVIS-Glasses.
 - Docs/Codex harness: clarify that per-agent `CODEX_HOME` isolates `~/.codex` while inherited `HOME` intentionally keeps `.agents` discovery and subprocess user-home state available.
 - CLI/plugins: keep bare plugin and parent-command help on the lightweight path, avoiding plugin registry discovery before rendering help.
