## Why Long `/goal` definitions currently reach lower-level goal validation and can produce an opaque failure. This bug was reported by a user. Pasted instruction blocks are especially confusing because the composer can still contain a paste placeholder before expansion, which may otherwise fall into the generic prompt-size error path. There was also a related paste edge case where `/goal ` followed by a multiline block whose first pasted line was blank looked like a bare `/goal` command. That showed the goal usage/summary instead of setting the pasted objective. ## What Changed This adds TUI-side preflight validation for `/goal <objective>` using the shared `MAX_THREAD_GOAL_OBJECTIVE_CHARS` limit. Oversized typed, queued, and pasted goal objectives now fail locally with a goal-specific message that recommends putting longer instructions in a file and referencing that file from the goal. The TUI now also lets inline-argument slash commands consume later-line arguments before treating the first line as a bare command, so `/goal ` followed by blank lines and then objective text sets the goal instead of opening the bare `/goal` flow. ## Manual Testing 1. Start the TUI with goals enabled and an active session. 2. Submit `/goal ` followed by exactly 4,000 objective characters. It should continue through the normal goal-setting path. 3. Submit `/goal ` followed by 4,001 objective characters. It should not set a goal, and should show `Goal objective is too long: 4,001 characters. Limit: 4,000 characters.` followed by the guidance to put longer instructions in a file and reference that file from the goal. 4. Type `/goal `, paste a large block that becomes a `[Pasted Content ... chars]` placeholder, then submit. It should validate the expanded pasted text and show the goal-specific file guidance rather than the generic prompt-size error. 5. Type `/goal `, paste a multiline block whose first line is blank, then submit. It should set the objective from the non-blank pasted content instead of showing `Usage: /goal <objective>` or the bare goal summary. 6. While a turn is running, queue an oversized `/goal` command. When the queue drains, it should show the same goal-specific error and should not emit a goal-setting request.

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.
