## Description
This PR makes `codex remote-control` behave like a foreground CLI
command by default. Running it now starts remote control, waits for
readiness, prints a clear status message with the machine name, and
stays alive until Ctrl-C.
Users who want daemon behavior can use `codex remote-control start`, and
`codex remote-control stop` now prints concise human-readable output.
`--json` remains available for scripts.
Implementation-wise, this now verifies the real app-server state instead
of just assuming startup worked. The CLI starts or connects to
app-server, probes its control socket, calls the `remoteControl/enable`
API, and waits for the remote-control status response/notification
before printing success.
For daemon mode, `codex remote-control start` also reports which managed
app-server binary was used, including its path and best-effort `codex
--version`, so failures are easier to diagnose.
## Examples
Example output:
```
> codex remote-control
Starting app-server with remote control enabled...
This machine is available for remote control as com-97826.
Press Ctrl-C to stop.
```
Error case using daemon (currently expected based on our publicly
released CLI version):
```
> ./target/debug/codex remote-control start
Starting app-server daemon with remote control enabled...
Error: app server did not become ready on /Users/owen/.codex/app-server-control/app-server-control.sock
Daemon used app-server:
path: /Users/owen/.codex/packages/standalone/current/codex
version: 0.130.0
Managed app-server stderr (/Users/owen/.codex/app-server-daemon/app-server.stderr.log):
error: unexpected argument '--remote-control' found
Usage: codex app-server [OPTIONS] [COMMAND]
For more information, try '--help'.
Caused by:
0: failed to connect to /Users/owen/.codex/app-server-control/app-server-control.sock
1: No such file or directory (os error 2)
```
## What changed
- `codex remote-control` now runs remote control in the foreground and
prints a Ctrl-C stop hint.
- `codex remote-control start` starts the daemon and waits for remote
control readiness before reporting success.
- `codex remote-control stop` reports stopped/not-running status in
plain language.
- Startup failures now include recent managed app-server stderr to make
daemon issues easier to diagnose.
- Added coverage for CLI output, readiness waiting, foreground shutdown,
and stderr log tailing.

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.
