## Summary This changes Codex logout so managed ChatGPT auth is revoked against AuthAPI before local auth state is removed. CLI logout, TUI `/logout`, and the app-server account logout path now use the token-revoking logout flow instead of only deleting `auth.json` / credential store state. ## Root Cause Logout previously cleared only local auth storage. That removed Codex's local credentials but did not ask the backend to invalidate the refresh/access token state associated with a managed ChatGPT login. ## Behavior For managed ChatGPT auth, logout sends the stored refresh token to `https://auth.openai.com/oauth/revoke` with `token_type_hint: refresh_token` and the Codex OAuth client id, then deletes all local auth stores after revocation succeeds. If only an access token is available, it falls back to revoking that access token. API key auth and externally supplied `chatgptAuthTokens` are still only cleared locally because Codex does not own a refresh token for those modes. Revocation failures are fail-closed: if Codex cannot load stored auth or the backend revoke call fails, logout returns an error and leaves local auth in place so the user can retry instead of silently clearing local state while backend tokens remain valid. ## Validation ran local version of `codex-cli` with staging overrides/harness for auth ran `codex login` then `codex logout`: saw auth.json clear and backend revocation endpoints were called ``` POST /oauth/revoke status: 200 revoking access token should clear auth session clearing auth session due to token revocation successfully revoked session and access token CANONICAL-API-LINE Response: status='200' method='POST' path='/oauth/revoke ``` --------- Co-authored-by: Codex <noreply@openai.com>
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.
Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan
Run codex and select Sign in with ChatGPT. We recommend signing into your ChatGPT account to use Codex as part of your Plus, Pro, Business, Edu, or Enterprise plan. Learn more about what's included in your ChatGPT plan.
You can also use Codex with an API key, but this requires additional setup.
