## Why This is the next PR in the Windows sandbox migration stack after #22896. The bottom PR introduces a Windows-local resolved permissions helper while existing callers still start from legacy `SandboxPolicy`. This PR moves the elevated runner IPC boundary to `PermissionProfile`, which makes the direction of the stack visible without changing the public core call sites yet. Because that changes the CLI-to-command-runner message shape, the framed IPC protocol version is bumped in the same PR so the boundary change is explicit. ## What changed - Replaced elevated IPC `policy_json_or_preset`/`sandbox_policy_cwd` fields with `permission_profile`/`permission_profile_cwd`. - Bumped the elevated command-runner IPC protocol to `IPC_PROTOCOL_VERSION = 2` and switched parent/runner frames to use the shared constant. - Converted the parent elevated paths from the parsed legacy policy into a materialized `PermissionProfile` before sending the runner request. - Added `WindowsSandboxTokenMode` resolution for managed `PermissionProfile` values and made the runner choose read-only vs writable-root capability tokens from that resolved profile. - Rejected disabled, external, unrestricted, and full-disk-write profiles before token selection. - Added IPC JSON coverage for tagged `PermissionProfile` payloads and token-mode unit coverage for the resolved permission helper. ## Verification - `cargo test -p codex-windows-sandbox` - `just fix -p codex-windows-sandbox` - `cargo check -p codex-windows-sandbox --target x86_64-pc-windows-msvc --tests` was attempted locally but blocked before crate type-checking because the macOS compiler environment lacks Windows C headers such as `windows.h` and `assert.h`; GitHub Windows CI is the required verification for the runner path. --- [//]: # (BEGIN SAPLING FOOTER) Stack created with [Sapling](https://sapling-scm.com).

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.
