## Why Skill metadata accepted a `permissions` block and stored the result on `SkillMetadata`, but that data was never consumed by runtime behavior. Leaving the dead parsing path in place makes it look like skills can widen or otherwise influence execution permissions when, in practice, declared skill permissions are ignored. This change removes that misleading surface area so the skill metadata model matches what the system actually uses. ## What changed - removed `permission_profile` and `managed_network_override` from `core-skills::SkillMetadata` - stopped parsing `permissions` from skill metadata in `core-skills/src/loader.rs` - deleted the loader tests that only exercised the removed permissions parsing path - cleaned up dependent `SkillMetadata` constructors in tests and TUI code that were only carrying `None` for those fields ## Testing - `cargo test -p codex-core-skills` - `cargo test -p codex-tui submission_prefers_selected_duplicate_skill_path` - `just argument-comment-lint`
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.
