+# Python SDK Examples
+
+Each example folder contains runnable versions:
+
+- `sync.py` (public sync surface: `Codex`)
+- `async.py` (public async surface: `AsyncCodex`)
+
+All examples intentionally use only public SDK exports from `codex_app_server`.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Python `>=3.10`
+- Install SDK dependencies for the same Python interpreter you will use to run examples
+
+Recommended setup (from `sdk/python`):
+
+```bash
+python -m venv .venv
+source .venv/bin/activate
+python -m pip install -U pip
+python -m pip install -e .
+```
+
+## Run examples
+
+From `sdk/python`:
+
+```bash
+python examples/<example-folder>/sync.py
+python examples/<example-folder>/async.py
+```
+
+The examples bootstrap local imports from `sdk/python/src` automatically, so no `pip install -e .` step is required to run them from this repository checkout.
+The only required install step is dependencies for your active interpreter.
+
+## Recommended first run
+
+```bash
+python examples/01_quickstart_constructor/sync.py
+python examples/01_quickstart_constructor/async.py
+```
