## Description This PR stops emitting legacy `codex/event/*` notifications from the public app-server transports. It's been a long time coming! app-server was still producing a raw notification stream from core, alongside the typed app-server notifications and server requests, for compatibility reasons. Now, external clients should no longer be depending on those legacy notifications, so this change removes them from the stdio and websocket contract and updates the surrounding docs, examples, and tests to match. ### Caveat I left the "in-process" version of app-server alone for now, since `codex exec` was recently based on top of app-server via this in-process form here: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/14005 Seems like `codex exec` still consumes some legacy notifications internally, so this branch only removes `codex/event/*` from app-server over stdio and websockets. ## Follow-up Once `codex exec` is fully migrated off `codex/event/*` notifications, we'll be able to stop emitting them entirely entirely instead of just filtering it at the external transport boundary.
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.
