This PR is part of the effort to move the TUI on top of the app server. In a previous PR, we introduced an in-process app server and moved `exec` on top of it. For the TUI, we want to do the migration in stages. The app server doesn't currently expose all of the functionality required by the TUI, so we're going to need to support a hybrid approach as we make the transition. This PR changes the TUI initialization to instantiate an in-process app server and access its `AuthManager` and `ThreadManager` rather than constructing its own copies. It also adds a placeholder TUI event handler that will eventually translate app server events into TUI events. App server notifications are accepted but ignored for now. It also adds proper shutdown of the app server when the TUI terminates. |

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.
