## Why CLI auth and MCP OAuth credentials should use separate encrypted files while sharing the existing local-secrets implementation and OS-keyring-backed encryption key mechanism. This is the second PR in the encrypted-auth stack: 1. #27504 — feature and config selection 2. This PR — auth-specific local-secrets namespaces 3. CLI auth implementation and activation 4. MCP OAuth implementation and activation ## What Changed - Added `LocalSecretsNamespace` variants for shared secrets, CLI auth, and MCP OAuth. - Selected `local.age`, `cli_auth.age`, or `mcp_oauth.age` from the namespace. - Made atomic temporary filenames derive from the selected secrets filename. - Added namespaced `SecretsManager` construction and coverage proving the auth namespaces write separate encrypted files. - Made the default keyring store clonable for downstream namespaced auth backends. This PR does not activate either auth backend or change existing credential behavior. ## Validation - `just test -p codex-secrets` — 7 passed - `just test -p codex-keyring-store` — package has no test binaries - `just fmt`
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.
