#### What ###### Context + Problem With the introduction of plugins, we now have one more type of `$`-mentionable item in the TUI's popup menu on `$`. Apps, skills, and plugins can all have the same user-facing name, and we attempt to distinguish with a category tag suffix, like `[App]`. This has a few problems: - We decide to show tags by the text that will be inserted into the conversation, not the actual user-visible text, so two visibly-identical entries can have no clarifying category tag suffix - The category tag is a suffix and commonly gets cut off by long descriptions - The skill category tag is currently only displayed on repo skills as `[Repo]`, which is confusing to most users - The plugin category tag is currently `[<marketplace-name>]`, which is also confusing to most users ###### Solution - **Always** show a **prefix** category tag that is `[Skill]`, `[App]`, or `[Plugin]`. No conditional rendering or copy.

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.
