Backport #50129 to the 0.160 release line so a Unix host can start remote stdio MCP servers on Windows when explicit remote environment variables are configured. Preserve `SYSTEMROOT`, `TEMP`, and `TMP` in the remote environment allowlist. The existing regression test checks these variables survive while unrequested secrets remain excluded. This is the exact single-file patch from #50129, based on the immutable 0.160.0 release's content commit (`cb7799623b2241f536d799f2d46259148fb987ce`). No unrelated main changes are included. Validation: - Patch ID matches #50129 exactly: `990a7674801ac5adbc6c8c6380568e18b3d396e2`. - `cargo build -p codex-cli --bin codex` passed. - `just test -p codex-rmcp-client`: 332 passed, 9 skipped, 4 setup failures initially. After building the CLI, all three `streamable_http_remote` integration tests passed on retry. The remaining OAuth auth-status test cannot create its lock directory in the read-only local home. - The remote environment filtering regression passed, including preservation of Windows variables and exclusion of unrequested secrets. - Core MCP environment-propagation integration validation is in progress. - The supported publisher dry run selects 0.160.1 from the exact candidate SHA. CI currently reports unrelated failures in unchanged formatter tests, lint imports, spelling checks, manifest-feature exceptions, and unlinked-file checks. The Linux and Windows production build checks passed; remaining checks are running.
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
Run the following on Mac or Linux to install Codex CLI:
curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | sh
Run the following on Windows to install Codex CLI:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex"
The standalone installers download from https://releases.openai.com/codex by default and fall back to GitHub Releases if a metadata or asset download is unavailable. To force GitHub Releases, set CODEX_INSTALLER_USE_RELEASES_OPENAI_COM to false (0 and no are also accepted):
curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | CODEX_INSTALLER_USE_RELEASES_OPENAI_COM=false sh
$env:CODEX_INSTALLER_USE_RELEASES_OPENAI_COM='false'; irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex
Codex CLI can also be installed via the following package managers:
# 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.
