Update install and contributing guides to use the root justfile helpers (`just fmt`, `just fix -p <crate>`, and targeted tests) instead of the older cargo fmt/clippy/test instructions that have been in place since459363e17b. This matches the justfile relocation to the repo root in952d6c946and the current lint/test workflow for CI (see `.github/workflows/rust-ci.yml`).

DotSlash
The GitHub Release also contains a DotSlash file for the Codex CLI named codex. Using a DotSlash file makes it possible to make a lightweight commit to source control to ensure all contributors use the same version of an executable, regardless of what platform they use for development.
Build from source
# Clone the repository and navigate to the root of the Cargo workspace.
git clone https://github.com/openai/codex.git
cd codex/codex-rs
# Install the Rust toolchain, if necessary.
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh -s -- -y
source "$HOME/.cargo/env"
rustup component add rustfmt
rustup component add clippy
# Install helper tools used by the workspace justfile:
cargo install just
# Optional: install nextest for the `just test` helper (or use `cargo test --all-features` as a fallback)
cargo install cargo-nextest
# Build Codex.
cargo build
# Launch the TUI with a sample prompt.
cargo run --bin codex -- "explain this codebase to me"
# After making changes, use the root justfile helpers (they default to codex-rs):
just fmt
just fix -p <crate-you-touched>
# Run the relevant tests (project-specific is fastest), for example:
cargo test -p codex-tui
# If you have cargo-nextest installed, `just test` runs the full suite:
just test
# Otherwise, fall back to:
cargo test --all-features
