Fixes #18203. ## Why Remote TUI clients connected through `codex app-server --listen ws://...` can receive short bursts of outbound turn and tool-output notifications. The WebSocket transport previously used the shared 128-message channel capacity for its outbound writer queue, so a healthy client that briefly lagged during normal output streaming could fill the queue and be disconnected immediately. This is a smaller mitigation than #18265: instead of adding a new overflow/backpressure pipeline, keep the existing non-blocking router behavior and give WebSocket clients enough bounded headroom for realistic bursts. ## What Changed - Added a WebSocket-only outbound writer capacity of `64 * 1024` messages. - Used that larger capacity only for the WebSocket data writer queue in `codex-rs/app-server/src/transport/websocket.rs`. - Left the shared `CHANNEL_CAPACITY` and the existing disconnect-on-full behavior unchanged for internal/control channels and genuinely stuck clients. ## Verification - `cargo test -p codex-app-server transport::tests::broadcast_does_not_block_on_slow_connection` - Manually retried the #18203 repro prompt against the remote TUI and confirmed it stayed connected.
npm i -g @openai/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.
