## Why The TUI currently handles keyboard shortcuts as hard-coded event matches spread across app, composer, pager, list, approval, and navigation code. That makes shortcuts hard to customize, makes displayed hints easy to drift from actual behavior, and makes future keymap work riskier because there is no central action inventory. This PR adds the foundation for configurable, action-based keymaps without adding the interactive remapping UI yet. Onboarding intentionally stays on fixed startup shortcuts because users cannot reasonably configure keymaps before completing onboarding. This is PR1 in the keymap stack: - PR1: #18593: configurable keymap foundation - PR2: #18594: `/keymap` picker and guided remapping UI - PR3: #18595: Vim composer mode and the remap option ## Design Notes The new model resolves named actions into concrete runtime bindings once from config, then passes those bindings to the UI surfaces that handle input or render shortcut hints. The main concepts are: - **Context**: a scope where an action is active, such as `global`, `chat`, `composer`, `editor`, `pager`, `list`, or `approval`. - **Action**: a named operation inside a context, such as `global.open_transcript`, `composer.submit`, or `pager.close`. - **Binding**: one or more single-key shortcuts assigned to an action, written as config strings such as `ctrl-t`, `alt-backspace`, or `page-down`. Multi-step sequences such as `ctrl-x ctrl-s`, `g g`, or leader-key flows are not part of this PR. - **Resolution order**: context-specific config wins first, supported global fallbacks come next, and built-in defaults fill in anything unset. - **Explicit unbinding**: an empty array removes an action binding in that scope and does not fall through to a fallback binding. - **Conflict validation**: a resolved keymap rejects duplicate active bindings inside the same scope so one keypress cannot dispatch two actions. ## What Changed - Added `TuiKeymap` config support under `[tui.keymap]`, including typed contexts/actions, key alias normalization, generated schema coverage, and user-facing config errors. - Added `RuntimeKeymap` resolution in `codex-rs/tui/src/keymap.rs`, including fallback precedence, built-in defaults, explicit unbinding, and per-context conflict validation. - Rewired existing TUI handlers to consume resolved keymap actions instead of directly matching hard-coded keys in each component. - Updated key hint rendering and footer/pager/list surfaces so displayed shortcuts follow the resolved keymap. - Kept onboarding shortcuts fixed in `codex-rs/tui/src/onboarding/keys.rs` instead of exposing them through `[tui.keymap]`. ## Validation The branch includes focused coverage for config parsing, key normalization, runtime fallback resolution, explicit unbinding, duplicate-key conflict validation, default keymap consistency, onboarding startup key behavior, and UI hint snapshots affected by resolved key bindings.
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.
