- Adds --listen <URL> to codex app-server with two listen modes:
- stdio:// (default, existing behavior)
- ws://IP:PORT (new websocket transport)
- Refactors message routing to be connection-aware:
- Tracks per-connection session state (initialize/experimental
capability)
- Routes responses/errors to the originating connection
- Broadcasts server notifications/requests to initialized connections
- Updates initialization semantics to be per connection (not
process-global), and updates app-server docs accordingly.
- Adds websocket accept/read/write handling (JSON-RPC per text frame,
ping/pong handling, connection lifecycle events).
Testing
- Unit tests for transport URL parsing and targeted response/error
routing.
- New websocket integration test validating:
- per-connection initialization requirements
- no cross-connection response leakage
- same request IDs on different connections route independently.
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 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.
