This is a pure refactor only change.
Replace the flattened transcript line metadata from `Option<(usize,
usize)>` to an explicit
`TranscriptLineMeta::{CellLine { cell_index, line_in_cell }, Spacer}`
enum.
This makes spacer rows unambiguous, removes “tuple semantics” from call
sites, and keeps the
scroll anchoring model clearer and aligned with the viewport/history
design notes.
Changes:
- Introduce `TranscriptLineMeta` and update `TranscriptScroll` helpers
to consume it.
- Update `App::build_transcript_lines` and downstream consumers
(scrolling, row classification, ANSI rendering).
- Refresh scrolling module docs to describe anchors + spacer semantics
in context.
- Add tests and docs about the behavior
Tests:
- just fmt
- cargo test -p codex-tui2 tui::scrolling
Manual testing:
- Scroll the inline transcript with mouse wheel + PgUp/PgDn/Home/End,
then resize the terminal while staying scrolled up; verify the same
anchored content stays in view and you don’t jump to bottom
unexpectedly.
- Create a gap case (multiple non-continuation cells) and scroll so a
blank spacer row is at/near the top; verify scrolling doesn’t get stuck
on spacers and still anchors to nearby real lines.
- Start a selection while the assistant is streaming; verify the view
stops auto-following, the selection stays on the intended content, and
subsequent scrolling still behaves normally.
- Exit the TUI and confirm scrollback rendering still styles user rows
as blocks (background padding) and non-user rows as expected.

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. If you use npm:
npm install -g @openai/codex
Alternatively, if you use Homebrew:
brew install --cask codex
Then simply run codex to get started:
codex
If you're running into upgrade issues with Homebrew, see the FAQ entry on brew upgrade codex.
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.
Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan
Run codex and select Sign in with ChatGPT. We recommend signing into your ChatGPT account to use Codex as part of your Plus, Pro, Team, Edu, or Enterprise plan. Learn more about what's included in your ChatGPT plan.
You can also use Codex with an API key, but this requires additional setup. If you previously used an API key for usage-based billing, see the migration steps. If you're having trouble with login, please comment on this issue.
