This is the second cleanup in the await-holding lint stack. The higher-level goal, following https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18178 and https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18398, is to enable Clippy coverage for guards held across `.await` points without carrying broad suppressions. The stack is working toward enabling Clippy's [`await_holding_lock`](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#await_holding_lock) lint and the configurable [`await_holding_invalid_type`](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#await_holding_invalid_type) lint for Tokio guard types. Several existing fields used `tokio::sync::Mutex<()>` only as one-at-a-time async gates. Those guards intentionally lived across `.await` while an operation was serialized. A mutex over `()` suggests protected data and trips the await-holding lint shape; a single-permit `tokio::sync::Semaphore` expresses the intended serialization directly. ## What changed - Replace `Mutex<()>` serialization gates with `Semaphore::new(1)` for agent identity ensure, exec policy updates, guardian review session reuse, plugin remote sync, managed network proxy refresh, auth token refresh, and RMCP session recovery. - Update call sites from `lock().await` / `try_lock()` to `acquire().await` / `try_acquire()`. - Map closed-semaphore errors into the existing local error types, even though these semaphores are owned for the lifetime of their managers. - Update session test builders for the new `managed_network_proxy_refresh_lock` type. ## Verification - The split stack was verified at the final lint-enabling head with `just clippy`. --- [//]: # (BEGIN SAPLING FOOTER) Stack created with [Sapling](https://sapling-scm.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.
