## Why Several approval-focused tests were unintentionally sensitive to host-level rule files. On machines with broader allowed command prefixes, commonly allowed commands such as `/bin/date` could bypass the approval path these tests were meant to exercise, making the fixtures depend on the developer or CI host configuration. ## What changed - Pins the approval matrix fixture to the explicit user reviewer so it does not inherit a host reviewer. - Changes OTel approval fixtures to request `/usr/bin/touch codex-otel-approval-test`, avoiding a command that may be pre-approved by local rules. - Clears the config layer stack for the permissions-message assertion that needs to compare only the permissions text under test. ## Verification - `env -u CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED cargo test -p codex-core --test all approval_matrix_covers_all_modes -- --nocapture` - `env -u CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED cargo test -p codex-core --test all permissions_messages -- --nocapture`

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.
