## Summary - Reduced repeated approvals for equivalent wrapper commands and fixed execpolicy matching for heredoc-style shell invocations, with minimal behavior change and fail-closed defaults. ## Fixes 1. Canonicalized approval matching for wrappers so equivalent commands map to the same approval intent. 2. Added heredoc-aware prefix extraction for execpolicy so commands like `python3 <<'PY' ... PY` match rules such as `prefix_rule(["python3"], ...)`. 3. Kept fallback behavior conservative: if parsing is ambiguous, existing prompt behavior is preserved. ## Edge Cases Covered - Wrapper path/name differences: `/bin/bash` vs `bash`, `/bin/zsh` vs `zsh`. - Shell modes: `-c` and `-lc`. - Heredoc forms: quoted delimiter (`<<'PY'`) and unquoted delimiter (`<< PY`). - Multi-command heredoc scripts are rejected by the fallback - Non-heredoc redirections (`>`, etc.) are not treated as heredoc prefix matches. - Complex scripts still fall back to prior behavior rather than expanding permissions. --------- Co-authored-by: Dylan Hurd <dylan.hurd@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.
