## Why Deferred tools were tracked with separate side-channel filtering after tool specs had already been assembled. That made the registry responsible for executing tools while the router/spec planner separately decided whether those same tools should be exposed to the model up front. This PR makes exposure part of the tool handler contract so direct versus deferred availability travels with the executable tool registration. Next step will be to simplify registration ## What Changed - Adds `ToolExposure` to `codex-tools` and exposes it through `ToolExecutor`, defaulting tools to `Direct`. - Teaches dynamic tools and MCP handlers to mark deferred tools as `Deferred` at construction time. - Renames the registry object-safe wrapper from `AnyToolHandler` to `RegisteredTool` and uses `ToolExposure` when deciding whether to include a handler's spec in the initial model-visible tool list. - Refactors tool spec planning to derive direct specs and deferred search entries from registered handlers, removing the router's special-case deferred dynamic tool filtering. ## Verification - Not run.
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.
