## Why `!` shell commands are currently surfaced as "Bash mode", which is misleading for users running shells such as PowerShell or zsh. Those commands also bypass the persistent prompt history path, so they cannot be recalled after starting a new session. Fixes #19613. ## What changed - Rename the TUI footer label and related test wording from "Bash mode" to "Shell mode". - Persist accepted `!` shell commands to prompt history with the leading `!`, so recall restores the composer into shell mode across sessions. - Add coverage for immediate and queued shell-command submissions emitting the prompt-history update. ## Verification - `cargo test -p codex-tui bang_shell` - `cargo test -p codex-tui shell_command_uses_shell_accent_style` - `cargo test -p codex-tui footer_mode_snapshots` - `cargo insta pending-snapshots --manifest-path tui/Cargo.toml` Manually verified fix after confirming presence of bug prior to fix.

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.
