**PR Summary**
This PR adds the OpenTelemetry `host.name` resource attribute to Codex
OTEL exports so every OTEL log (and trace, via the shared resource)
carries the machine hostname.
**What changed**
- Added `host.name` to the shared OTEL `Resource` in
`/Users/michael.mcgrew/code/codex/codex-rs/otel/src/otel_provider.rs`
- This applies to both:
- OTEL logs (`SdkLoggerProvider`)
- OTEL traces (`SdkTracerProvider`)
- Hostname is now resolved via `gethostname::gethostname()`
(best-effort)
- Value is trimmed
- Empty values are omitted (non-fatal)
- Added focused unit tests for:
- including `host.name` when present
- omitting `host.name` when missing/empty
**Why**
- `host.name` is host/process metadata and belongs on the OTEL
`resource`, not per-event attributes.
- Attaching it in the shared resource is the smallest change that
guarantees coverage across all exported OTEL logs/traces.
**Scope / Non-goals**
- No public API changes
- No changes to metrics behavior (this PR only updates log/trace
resource metadata)
**Dependency updates**
- Added `gethostname` as a workspace dependency and `codex-otel`
dependency
- `Cargo.lock` updated accordingly
- `MODULE.bazel.lock` unchanged after refresh/check
**Validation**
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-otel`
- `just bazel-lock-update`
- `just bazel-lock-check`
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.
