Agent IDE — Codex fork for AI-native development environment

### What Implemented detection for dangerous "force delete" commands on Windows to trigger the user approval prompt when `--ask-for-approval on-request` is set. This aligns Windows behavior with the existing safety checks for `rm -rf` on Linux. ### Why Fixes #8567 - a critical safety gap where destructive Windows commands could bypass the approval prompt. This prevents accidental data loss by ensuring the user explicitly confirms operations that would otherwise suppress the OS's native confirmation prompts. ### How Updated the Windows command safety module to identify and flag the following patterns as dangerous: * **PowerShell**: * Detects `Remove-Item` (and aliases `rm`, `ri`, `del`, `erase`, `rd`, `rmdir`) when used with the `-Force` flag. * Uses token-based analysis to robustly detect these patterns even inside script blocks (`{...}`), sub-expression `(...)`, or semicolon-chained sequences. * **CMD**: * Detects `del /f` (force delete files). * Detects `rd /s /q` (recursive delete quiet). * **Command Chaining**: Added support for analyzing chained commands (using `&`, `&&`, `|`, `||`) to separate and check individual commands (e.g., catching `del /f` hidden in `echo log & del /f data`). ### Testing Added comprehensive unit tests covering: * **PowerShell**: `Remove-Item -Path 'test' -Recurse -Force` (Exact reproduction case). * **Complex Syntax**: Verified detection inside blocks (e.g., `if ($true) { rm -Force }`) and with trailing punctuation. * **CMD**: * `del /f` (Flagged). * `rd /s /q` (Flagged). * Chained commands: `echo hi & del /f file` (Flagged). * **False Positives**: * `rd /s` (Not flagged - relies on native prompt). * Standard deletions without force flags. Verified with `cargo test` and `cargo clippy`. --------- Co-authored-by: Eric Traut <etraut@openai.com> |

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.
