## Why `codex_tools::ToolExecutor` keeps a tool spec attached to its runtime handler, but extension tools still carried a parallel `ExtensionToolFuture` / `ExtensionToolExecutor` shape. That made extension-owned tools look different from host tools even though routing, registration, and execution need the same abstraction. This PR makes the shared executor contract directly async and lets extension tools implement it too, so host tools and extension tools can move through the same registration path. ## What changed - Changed `ToolExecutor::handle` to an `async fn` using `async-trait`, and updated built-in tool handlers to implement the async trait directly. - Replaced the bespoke `ExtensionToolFuture` contract with a marker `ExtensionToolExecutor` over `ToolExecutor<ToolCall, Output = JsonToolOutput>`, re-exporting `ToolExecutor` from `codex-extension-api`. - Updated the memories extension tools to implement the shared executor trait. - Split tool-router construction into collected executors plus hosted model specs, keeping hosted tools like web search and image generation separate from executable handlers. - Updated spec/router tests and extension-tool stubs for the new executor shape. ## Verification - Not run locally.
npm i -g @openai/codex
or brew install --cask codex
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.
