## Why The Python SDK depends on the app-server runtime package for the bundled `codex` binary and schema source of truth. That relationship should be explicit in package metadata instead of inferred from matching version numbers, so installers, lockfiles, and reviewers can see exactly which runtime the SDK expects. ## What - Declare `openai-codex-cli-bin==0.131.0a4` as a Python SDK dependency. - Update runtime setup helpers to resolve the runtime version from the declared dependency pin. - Refresh the SDK lockfile for the pinned runtime wheel. - Update package/runtime tests and docs that describe where the runtime version comes from. ## Stack 1.

Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.
If you want Codex in your code editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), install in your IDE.
If you want the desktop app experience, run
codex app or visit the Codex App page.
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
- Apple Silicon/arm64:
- Linux
- x86_64:
codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz - arm64:
codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
- x86_64:
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.
