Hardens codex-rs/app-server connection lifecycle and outbound routing for websocket clients. Fixes some FUD I was having - Added per-connection disconnect signaling (CancellationToken) for websocket transports. - Split websocket handling into independent inbound/outbound tasks coordinated by cancellation. - Changed outbound routing so websocket connections use non-blocking try_send; slow/full websocket writers are disconnected instead of stalling broadcast delivery. - Kept stdio behavior blocking-on-send (no forced disconnect) so local stdio clients are not dropped when queues are temporarily full. - Simplified outbound router flow by removing deferred pending_closed_connections handling. - Added guards to drop incoming response/notification/error messages from unknown connections. - Fixed listener teardown race in thread listener tasks using a listener_generation check so stale tasks do not clear newer listeners. Fixes https://linear.app/openai/issue/CODEX-4966/multiclient-handle-slow-notification-consumers ## Tests Added/updated transport tests covering: - broadcast does not block on a slow/full websocket connection - stdio connection waits instead of disconnecting on full queue I (maxj) have tested manually and will retest before landing
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.
