## Why [#23883](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/23883) moved the user-facing `--profile` flag onto profile v2. The shared CLI option layer still carried the old `config_profile` slot and several CLI entrypoints still copied that value into legacy config overrides. Leaving that path around makes the CLI surface look like it still selects legacy `[profiles.*]` state even though `--profile` now means `$CODEX_HOME/<name>.config.toml`. ## What - Remove the legacy `config_profile` field and merge/copy path from [`SharedCliOptions`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/95baaf72920c8db22097df8d15a0bb76c84528b6/codex-rs/utils/cli/src/shared_options.rs#L8-L177). - Stop forwarding profile-v1 overrides from CLI, exec, TUI, doctor, debug, feature, and exec-server paths; runtime profile selection remains on `config_profile_v2` through [`loader_overrides_for_profile`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/95baaf72920c8db22097df8d15a0bb76c84528b6/codex-rs/cli/src/main.rs#L1606-L1619). - Resolve local OSS provider selection from the base config in exec and TUI now that the legacy profile argument is gone. ## Testing - Not run (cleanup-only follow-up to #23883).
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.
