## Why PR #29108 lets the orchestrator send sandbox intent with `process/start` without wrapping the command for its own operating system. This PR completes that boundary by making the executor interpret and enforce the intent using its own filesystem paths and sandbox implementation. For example, a macOS TUI targeting a Linux devbox sends `/bin/bash -lc pwd`. The Linux executor turns that into its own `codex-linux-sandbox ... /bin/bash -lc pwd` launch. ## What changes - Keep `process/start` unchanged when no sandbox intent is present. - Convert sandbox `PathUri` values into native paths on the executor. - Bind symbolic `:workspace_roots` permissions to the executor's native sandbox cwd. - Select the sandbox implementation on the executor and wrap the original command immediately before spawning it. - Reject sandbox-required execution before spawning when the executor cannot enforce the intent. - Pass exec-server runtime paths into process creation so Linux can locate `codex-linux-sandbox`. The boundary is therefore: ```text orchestrator executor original argv + sandbox intent -> select and enforce local sandbox ``` This PR intentionally treats a denied remote command as an ordinary command failure. Draft follow-up #29424 carries a semantic `sandboxDenied` result back to unified exec for the existing approval and retry flow. ## Platform scope Linux and macOS use their existing direct-spawn sandbox transforms. Windows sandboxed remote process launch is intentionally unsupported in this PR. The current Windows direct-spawn wrapper does not correctly preserve arbitrary argv, TTY behavior, or pass the full child environment out of band. The executor rejects the request instead of running it incorrectly or unsandboxed. ## Known follow-ups - The transported permission profile can still contain orchestrator-materialized helper or explicit paths. A `TODO(jif)` marks where the executor boundary should receive pre-host-materialization permission intent. - The sandbox wrapper currently replaces a requested custom inner `arg0`. A `TODO(jif)` marks where this must be preserved or rejected explicitly. - Draft PR #29424 contains the deferred sandbox-denial classification and approval/retry behavior. ## Rollout assumption This executor-sandbox stack is unreleased and its client and executor are expected to move together. This PR does not add mixed-version negotiation with older exec servers.
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.
