Agent IDE — Codex fork for AI-native development environment
39a6a84097
This PR adds support for loading [skills](https://developers.openai.com/codex/skills) from `.agents/skills/`. - Issue: https://github.com/agentskills/agentskills/issues/15 - Motivation: When skills live on the filesystem, sharing them across agents is awkward and often ends up requiring symlinks/duplication. A single location under `.agents/` makes it easier to share skills. - Loading from `.codex/skills/` will remain but will be deprecated soon. The change only applies to the [REPO scope](https://developers.openai.com/codex/skills#where-to-save-skills). - Documentation will be updated before this change is live. Testing with skills in two locations of this repo: <img width="960" height="152" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/28975ff9-7363-46dd-ad40-f4c7bfdb8234" /> When starting Codex with CWD in `$repo_root` (should only pick up at root): <img width="513" height="143" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/389e1ea7-020c-481e-bda0-ce58562db59f" /> When starting Codex with CWD in `$repo_root/codex-rs` (should pick up at cwd and crawl up to root): <img width="552" height="177" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a5beb8de-11b4-45ed-8660-80707c77006a" /> |

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 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, Team, 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.
