Eric Burke ad2012d645 ci: sign macOS release artifacts with Azure Key Vault (#26252)
## Why

The public Codex release workflow needs to sign and notarize macOS
binaries and DMGs without placing the Developer ID private key in
GitHub. This moves the private-key operation behind the protected
`codesigning` environment and uses GitHub OIDC with Azure Key Vault
PKCS#11, while preserving the existing external `build_unsigned` /
`promote_signed` fallback.

## What changed

- Add a reusable AKV PKCS11 setup action that authenticates to Azure
with OIDC, downloads pinned signing tools, verifies their SHA-256
digests, and loads the public signing certificate from Key Vault.
- Replace the legacy macOS signing action with scripts that support
AKV-backed `rcodesign`, notarize signed binaries and DMGs, and staple
DMG notarization tickets.
- Restructure `rust-release.yml` so macOS builds produce unsigned
artifacts first, protected jobs perform signing and notarization, macOS
runners package and verify the results, and release publishing waits for
verified artifacts.
- Preserve the manual external-signing handoff flow and make manual-mode
conditions explicit.
- Move the Codex entitlements file alongside the signing scripts and
update CODEOWNERS for the new signing surfaces.

## Verification

- [Live protected signing workflow
run](https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/26903610631) completed
successfully for both macOS architectures, including binary
signing/notarization, DMG signing/notarization, and final artifact
verification.
- Downloaded both signed DMGs and independently verified their checksums
and strict signatures.
- Confirmed `xcrun stapler validate` succeeds and Gatekeeper accepts
both DMGs as `Notarized Developer ID`.
- Mounted both DMGs and confirmed the contained `codex` and
`codex-responses-api-proxy` binaries have valid Developer ID signatures
for the expected architectures.

Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.

Codex CLI splash


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
  • Linux
    • x86_64: codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
    • arm64: codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz

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.

Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan

Run codex and select Sign in with ChatGPT. We recommend signing into your ChatGPT account to use Codex as part of your Plus, Pro, Business, Edu, or Enterprise plan. Learn more about what's included in your ChatGPT plan.

You can also use Codex with an API key, but this requires additional setup.
