## Summary - Treat the remote global plugin catalog as active only when `remote_plugin` is enabled and the current auth uses the Codex backend. - Skip the local OpenAI curated marketplace for remote-enabled ChatGPT users while preserving configured marketplaces. - Keep the local curated marketplace for API-key users, unauthenticated fallback, and ChatGPT users with `remote_plugin` disabled. - Apply the same effective-remote gate to the remote installed-marketplace cache. ## Root cause The tool-suggestion discovery path unconditionally included the local OpenAI curated marketplace. For remote-enabled ChatGPT users, that made remote discovery additive: Codex parsed every local curated `plugin.json` before also loading the remote catalog. ## Validation - `just fmt` - `cargo build -p codex-cli --bin codex` - Targeted auth/feature matrix tests pass, including API-key auth with `remote_plugin` enabled. - Manual CLI validation confirmed: - ChatGPT + remote off includes local curated. - ChatGPT + remote on excludes local curated. - API-key auth keeps local curated when remote is enabled. - `just test -p codex-core-plugins`: 235 passed; one unrelated existing marketplace test failed because it loaded the developer's home marketplace configuration.
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.
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.
