## Why The tool runtime path still had a typed output associated type on `ToolExecutor`, plus a core-only `RegisteredTool` adapter and extension-only executor aliases. That made every new shared tool runtime carry extra adapter plumbing before it could participate in core dispatch, extension tools, hook payloads, telemetry, and model-visible spec generation. This PR moves output erasure to the shared executor boundary so core and extension tools can use the same execution contract directly. ## What Changed - Changed `codex_tools::ToolExecutor` to return `Box<dyn ToolOutput>` instead of an associated `Output` type. - Removed the extension-specific `ExtensionToolExecutor` / `ExtensionToolOutput` aliases and exposed `ToolExecutor<ToolCall>` plus `ToolOutput` through `codex-extension-api`. - Reworked core tool registration around `CoreToolRuntime` and `ToolRegistry::from_tools`, removing the extra `RegisteredTool` / `ToolRegistryBuilder` layer. - Consolidated model-visible spec planning and registry construction in `core/src/tools/spec_plan.rs`, including deferred tool search and code-mode-only filtering. - Added `ToolOutput` helpers for post-tool-use hook ids and inputs so MCP, unified exec, extension, and other boxed outputs preserve the same hook payload behavior. - Updated core handlers, memories tools, and the related registry/spec/router tests to use the simplified contract. ## Test Coverage - Updated coverage for tool spec planning, registry lookup, deferred tool search registration, extension tool routing, post-tool-use hook payloads, dispatch tracing, guardian output extraction, and memories extension tool execution.
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.
