## Why `codex remote-control` manages the app-server daemon with `remote_control` enabled, but it previously only exposed an implicit start path. Once started, there was no obvious top-level `remote-control` command for stopping the daemon; users had to know about the lower-level `codex app-server daemon stop` command. The startup failure for missing managed installs was also ambiguous. `codex remote-control` and daemon bootstrap require the standalone Codex install under `CODEX_HOME/packages/standalone/current/codex`, but the old error only said to install Codex first, which is unclear when another `codex` binary is already on PATH. Now we add an explicit instruction for how to get the standalone Codex install. ## What changed - Converts `codex remote-control` into a command group while preserving bare `codex remote-control` as the existing start behavior. - Adds `codex remote-control start` as the explicit start path. - Adds `codex remote-control stop`, which maps to app-server daemon stop. - Updates the shared daemon managed-install error to name the missing standalone path, explain why that install is required, provide the installer command, and tell users to rerun the command they just tried. ## Verification - `cargo test -p codex-app-server-daemon` - `cargo test -p codex-cli` - `./target/debug/codex remote-control --help`

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.
