## Why Memory startup runs in the background after an eligible turn, but it can consume Codex backend quota at exactly the wrong time: when the user is already near a rate-limit boundary. This PR adds a guard so the memory pipeline backs off when the Codex rate-limit snapshot says the remaining budget is too low. ## What Changed - Added `memories.min_rate_limit_remaining_percent` with a default of `25`, clamped to `0..=100`, and regenerated `core/config.schema.json`. - Added `codex-rs/memories/write/src/guard.rs`, which fetches Codex backend rate limits before memory startup and skips phase 1 / phase 2 when the Codex limit is reached or either tracked window is above the configured usage ceiling. - Keeps startup best-effort: non-Codex auth or rate-limit fetch/client failures preserve the existing memory startup behavior. - Records a `codex.memory.startup` counter with `status=skipped_rate_limit` when startup is skipped. - Added config parsing/clamping coverage and guard unit tests. ## Verification - Added `codex-rs/memories/write/src/guard_tests.rs` for threshold, primary/secondary window, and reached-limit behavior. - Added config tests for TOML parsing and clamping.
npm i -g @openai/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 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.
