Agent IDE — Codex fork for AI-native development environment

## Summary Today `SandboxPermissions::requires_additional_permissions()` does not actually mean "is `WithAdditionalPermissions`". It returns `true` for any non-default sandbox override, including `RequireEscalated`. That broad behavior is relied on in multiple `main` callsites. The naming is security-sensitive because `SandboxPermissions` is used on shell-like tool calls to tell the executor how a single command should relate to the turn sandbox: - `UseDefault`: run with the turn sandbox unchanged - `RequireEscalated`: request execution outside the sandbox - `WithAdditionalPermissions`: stay sandboxed but widen permissions for that command only ## Problem The old helper name reads as if it only applies to the `WithAdditionalPermissions` variant. In practice it means "this command requested any explicit sandbox override." That ambiguity made it easy to read production checks incorrectly and made the guardian change look like a standalone `main` fix when it is not. On `main` today: - `shell` and `unified_exec` intentionally reject any explicit `sandbox_permissions` request unless approval policy is `OnRequest` - `exec_policy` intentionally treats any explicit sandbox override as prompt-worthy in restricted sandboxes - tests intentionally serialize both `RequireEscalated` and `WithAdditionalPermissions` as explicit sandbox override requests So changing those callsites from the broad helper to a narrow `WithAdditionalPermissions` check would be a behavior change, not a pure cleanup. ## What This PR Does - documents `SandboxPermissions` as a per-command sandbox override, not a generic permissions bag - adds `requests_sandbox_override()` for the broad meaning: anything except `UseDefault` - adds `uses_additional_permissions()` for the narrow meaning: only `WithAdditionalPermissions` - keeps `requires_additional_permissions()` as a compatibility alias to the broad meaning for now - updates the current broad callsites to use the accurately named broad helper - adds unit coverage that locks in the semantics of all three helpers ## What This PR Does Not Do This PR does not change runtime behavior. That is intentional. --------- Co-authored-by: Codex <noreply@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 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.
