Agent IDE — Codex fork for AI-native development environment
5ea107a088
Took over the work that @aaronl-openai started here: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/10397 Now that app-server clients are able to set up custom tools (called `dynamic_tools` in app-server), we should expose a way for clients to pass in not just text, but also image outputs. This is something the Responses API already supports for function call outputs, where you can pass in either a string or an array of content outputs (text, image, file): https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/responses/create#responses_create-input-input_item_list-item-function_tool_call_output-output-array-input_image So let's just plumb it through in Codex (with the caveat that we only support text and image for now). This is implemented end-to-end across app-server v2 protocol types and core tool handling. ## Breaking API change NOTE: This introduces a breaking change with dynamic tools, but I think it's ok since this concept was only recently introduced (https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/9539) and it's better to get the API contract correct. I don't think there are any real consumers of this yet (not even the Codex App). Old shape: `{ "output": "dynamic-ok", "success": true }` New shape: ``` { "contentItems": [ { "type": "inputText", "text": "dynamic-ok" }, { "type": "inputImage", "imageUrl": "data:image/png;base64,AAA" } ] "success": true } ``` |

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.
