## Summary Add first-class Amazon Bedrock Mantle provider support so Codex can keep using its existing Responses API transport with OpenAI-compatible AWS-hosted endpoints such as AOA/Mantle. This is needed for the AWS launch path, where provider traffic should authenticate with AWS credentials instead of OpenAI bearer credentials. Requests are authenticated immediately before transport send, so SigV4 signs the final method, URL, headers, and body bytes that `reqwest` will send. ## What Changed - Added a new `codex-aws-auth` crate for loading AWS SDK config, resolving credentials, and signing finalized HTTP requests with AWS SigV4. - Added a built-in `amazon-bedrock` provider that targets Bedrock Mantle Responses endpoints, defaults to `us-east-1`, supports region/profile overrides, disables WebSockets, and does not require OpenAI auth. - Added Amazon Bedrock auth resolution in `codex-model-provider`: prefer `AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK` when set, otherwise use AWS SDK credentials and SigV4 signing. - Added `AuthProvider::apply_auth` and `Request::prepare_body_for_send` so request-signing providers can sign the exact outbound request after JSON serialization/compression. - Determine the region by taking the `aws.region` config first (required for bearer token codepath), and fallback to SDK default region. ## Testing Amazon Bedrock Mantle Responses paths: - Built the local Codex binary with `cargo build`. - Verified the custom proxy-backed `aws` provider using `env_key = "AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK"` streamed raw `responses` output with `response.output_text.delta`, `response.completed`, and `mantle-env-ok`. - Verified a full `codex exec --profile aws` turn returned `mantle-env-ok`. - Confirmed the custom provider used the bearer env var, not AWS profile auth: bogus `AWS_PROFILE` still passed, empty env var failed locally, and malformed env var reached Mantle and failed with `401 invalid_api_key`. - Verified built-in `amazon-bedrock` with `AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK` set passed despite bogus AWS profiles, returning `amazon-bedrock-env-ok`. - Verified built-in `amazon-bedrock` SDK/SigV4 auth passed with `AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK` unset and temporary AWS session env credentials, returning `amazon-bedrock-sdk-env-ok`.
npm i -g @openai/codex
or brew install --cask 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.
