Force an announcement tooltip in the CLI. This query the gh repo on this [file](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openai/codex/main/announcement_tip.toml) which contains announcements in TOML looking like this: ``` # Example announcement tips for Codex TUI. # Each [[announcements]] entry is evaluated in order; the last matching one is shown. # Dates are UTC, formatted as YYYY-MM-DD. The from_date is inclusive and the to_date is exclusive. # version_regex matches against the CLI version (env!("CARGO_PKG_VERSION")); omit to apply to all versions. # target_app specify which app should display the announcement (cli, vsce, ...). [[announcements]] content = "Welcome to Codex! Check out the new onboarding flow." from_date = "2024-10-01" to_date = "2024-10-15" version_regex = "^0\\.0\\.0$" target_app = "cli" ``` To make this efficient, the announcement is queried on a best effort basis at the launch of the CLI (no refresh made after this). This is done in an async way and we display the announcement (with 100% probability) iff the announcement is available, the cache is correctly warmed and there is a matching announcement (matching is recomputed for each new session). |

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.
