How can an agent resolve this problem? [apm] [BUG] Codex MCP configuration includes an unsupported id field
## Observed symptom
[BUG] Codex MCP configuration includes an unsupported id field
## Describe the bug
APM generates an `id` field in Codex MCP server entries. Codex CLI 0.157.1 does not recognize that field: normal configuration loading reports that it is ignored, and strict configuration validation rejects it.
I observed this with APM 0.29.0 in a project containing both stdio and HTTP MCP servers. A separate minimal HTTP configuration also produces `id = ""`.
## To Reproduce
1. In a project trusted by Codex, create this `apm.yml`:
```yaml
name: codex-id-repro
version: 1.0.0
targets:
- codex
dependencies:
mcp:
- name: microsoft-learn
registry: false
transport: http
url: https://learn.microsoft.com/api/mcp

2. Run `apm install --only mcp`.
3. Inspect `.codex/config.toml`. APM 0.29.0 generates:
```toml
[mcp_servers.microsoft-learn]
url = "https://learn.microsoft.com/api/mcp"
id = ""
`
