## Why Connector declarations currently enter Codex through broad plugin capability summaries, then MCP setup, turn tooling, and `app/list` each reconstruct the same information. That makes executor-selected connectors difficult to add without coupling connector behavior to the host plugin loader. This PR introduces a small connector-owned value that later stack layers can populate before thread startup. ## What changed - Move the pure app-declaration parser into `codex-connectors`, preserving declaration order and category cleanup while leaving host-side validation and deduplication unchanged. - Add an immutable `ConnectorSnapshot` with ordered connector IDs and plugin display-name provenance. - Adapt the existing local-plugin capability summaries into that snapshot at current consumer boundaries. - Use the snapshot for MCP tool provenance, turn connector inventory, and `app/list`. - Keep the crate API narrow: no test-only snapshot accessors are exposed. The externally visible behavior is unchanged. Connector tools still come from the orchestrator-owned `/ps/mcp` server, and local plugin enablement remains owned by the existing plugin loader. ## Stack scope This is the foundation only. It does not read selected executor packages or change thread startup. #29852 adds the executor-backed declaration reader, and #29856 composes selected declarations into a thread snapshot.
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
Run the following on Mac or Linux to install Codex CLI:
curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | sh
Run the following on Windows to install Codex CLI:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex"
Codex CLI can also be installed via the following package managers:
# 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.
