**Summary** - Backtrack selection now rehydrates `text_elements` and `local_image_paths` from the chosen user history cell so Esc‑Esc history edits preserve image placeholders and attachments. - Composer prefill uses the preserved elements/attachments in both `tui` and `tui2`. - Extended backtrack selection tests to cover image placeholder elements and local image paths. **Changes** - `tui/src/app_backtrack.rs`: Backtrack selection now carries text elements + local image paths; composer prefill uses them (removes TODO). - `tui2/src/app_backtrack.rs`: Same as above. - `tui/src/app.rs`: Updated backtrack test to assert restored elements/paths. - `tui2/src/app.rs`: Same test updates. ### The original scope of this PR (threading text elements and image attachments through the codex harness thoroughly/persistently) was broken into the following PRs other than this one: The diff of this PR was reduced by changing types in a starter PR: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9235 Then text element metadata was added to protocol, app server, and core in this PR: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9331 Then the end-to-end flow was completed by wiring TUI/TUI2 input, history, and restore behavior in https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9393 Prompt expansion was supported in this PR: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9518 TextElement optional placeholder field was protected in https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9545

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.
