## Notes / Edge Cases
- In steer mode while typing, the queue hint no longer replaces the mode
label; it renders as `tab to queue message · {Mode}`.
- Collapse priorities differ by state:
- With the queue hint active, `% context left` is hidden before
shortening or dropping the queue hint.
- In the empty + non-running state, `? for shortcuts` is dropped first,
and `% context left` is only shown if `(shift+tab to
cycle)` can also fit.
- Transient instructional states (`?` overlay, Esc hint, Ctrl+C/D
reminders, and flash/override hints) intentionally suppress the
mode label (and context) to focus the next action.

## Implementation Notes
- Renamed the base footer modes to make the state explicit:
`ComposerEmpty` and `ComposerHasDraft`, and compute the base mode
directly from emptiness.
- Unified collapse behavior in `single_line_footer_layout` for both base
modes, with:
- Queue-hint behavior that prefers keeping the queue hint over context.
- A cycle-hint guard that prevents context from reappearing after
`(shift+tab to cycle)` is dropped.
- Kept rendering responsibilities explicit:
  - `single_line_footer_layout` decides what fits.
  - `render_footer_line` renders a chosen line.
- `render_footer_from_props` renders the canonical mode-to-text mapping.
- Expanded snapshot coverage:
- Added `footer_collapse_snapshots` in `chat_composer.rs` to lock the
distinct collapse states across widths.
- Consolidated the width-aware snapshot helper usage (e.g.,
`snapshot_composer_state_with_width`,
`snapshot_footer_with_mode_indicator`).

npm i -g @openai/codex
or brew install --cask codex

Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.

Codex CLI splash


If you want Codex in your code editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), install in your IDE.
If you are looking for the cloud-based agent from OpenAI, Codex Web, go to chatgpt.com/codex.


Quickstart

Installing and running Codex CLI

Install globally with your preferred package manager:

# Install using npm
npm install -g @openai/codex
# Install using Homebrew
brew install --cask codex

Then simply run codex to get started.

You can also go to the latest GitHub Release and download the appropriate binary for your platform.

Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these:

  • macOS
    • Apple Silicon/arm64: codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
    • x86_64 (older Mac hardware): codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
  • Linux
    • x86_64: codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
    • arm64: codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz

Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl), so you likely want to rename it to codex after extracting it.

Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan

Run codex and select Sign in with ChatGPT. We recommend signing into your ChatGPT account to use Codex as part of your Plus, Pro, Team, Edu, or Enterprise plan. Learn more about what's included in your ChatGPT plan.

You can also use Codex with an API key, but this requires additional setup.
