## Why Users who run Codex remote control through daemon mode can keep the daemon running, but they do not have a CLI path to mint the short-lived manual pairing code needed to connect another device. Without this command, they need to speak app-server JSON-RPC directly. Related: #25675 ## What Changed - Added `codex remote-control pair`, which connects to the existing daemon control socket and calls `remoteControl/pairing/start` with `manualCode: true`. - Kept the command non-lifecycle-mutating: it does not start, enable, or restart the daemon. - Human output labels the manual code as `Pairing code: ...`; `--json` preserves the full pairing response. - Added daemon socket-client, CLI formatting, and parser coverage. ## Verification - `remote_control_client::tests::start_pairing_requests_manual_code` verifies the daemon client sends `{ "manualCode": true }` and parses the complete response. - `remote_control_cmd::tests::remote_control_pairing_human_output_labels_the_manual_code` verifies the human-facing output.
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
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
- 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.
