## Summary This PR adds the first `codex-rs` milestone for remote-exec e2e: a local `codex exec-server` can now register itself with `codex-cloud-environments` and attach to the returned rendezvous websocket. At a high level, `codex exec-server --cloud ...` now: - loads ChatGPT auth from normal Codex config - registers an executor with `codex-cloud-environments` - receives a signed rendezvous websocket URL - serves the existing exec-server JSON-RPC protocol over that websocket ## What Changed - Added `--cloud`, `--cloud-base-url`, `--cloud-environment-id`, and `--cloud-name` to `codex exec-server` - Added a new `exec-server/src/cloud.rs` module that handles: - registration requests - auth/header setup - bounded auth retry on `401/403` - reconnect/backoff after websocket disconnects - Reused the existing `ConnectionProcessor` / `ExecServerHandler` path so cloud mode serves the same exec/filesystem RPC surface as local websocket mode - Added cloud-specific error variants and minimal docs for the new mode ## Testing Manual e2e test that fully goes through exec server flow with our codex cloud agent as orchestrator
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.
Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan
Run codex and select Sign in with ChatGPT. We recommend signing into your ChatGPT account to use Codex as part of your Plus, Pro, Business, Edu, or Enterprise plan. Learn more about what's included in your ChatGPT plan.
You can also use Codex with an API key, but this requires additional setup.
