## Why Managed requirements can already centrally disable apps, but they could not express the per-tool app approval rules that normal config already supports. That left admins without a way to enforce connector tool approvals through `/etc/codex/requirements.toml` or cloud requirements. ## What changed - Extend app requirements with per-tool `approval_mode` entries. - Merge managed app tool requirements across managed sources while preserving higher-precedence exact tool settings. - Apply managed tool approvals separately from user app config so managed policy is matched only on raw MCP `tool.name`, while user config keeps the existing raw-name-then-title convenience fallback. - Add coverage for local requirements, cloud requirements parsing, managed-over-user precedence, and a title-collision case that must not widen managed auto-approval. ## Configuration shape Local `/etc/codex/requirements.toml` and cloud requirements use the same TOML shape: ```toml [apps.connector_123123.tools."calendar/list_events"] approval_mode = "approve" ``` This is a per-tool approval rule keyed by app ID and raw MCP tool name, not an app-level boolean such as `apps.connector_123123.approve = true`.
npm i -g @openai/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.
