## Stack This is the foundation PR for the permission-profile inheritance stack. - This PR adds config-level `extends` resolution and merge semantics. - Follow-up: #23705 applies resolved profiles at runtime and updates the active-profile protocol surfaces. ## Why Permission profiles are starting to carry enough policy that copy-pasting near-identical definitions becomes hard to review and easy to drift. Before the runtime can consume inherited profiles, the config layer needs one explicit resolver that can merge parent chains and reject unsafe or invalid inheritance shapes. ## What changed - Add `extends` to permission-profile TOML and resolve parent chains in inheritance order. - Merge inherited profile TOML with the existing config merge behavior while preserving the permission-specific normalization needed for network domain keys. - Keep parent descriptions out of resolved child profiles and record inherited profile names separately for downstream consumers. - Reject undefined parents, unsupported built-in parents, and inheritance cycles with targeted errors. - Cover resolver behavior with TOML fixture tests and refresh the generated config schema. ## Validation - `cargo test -p codex-config` - `cargo test -p codex-core permissions_profiles_`
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.
