## Why Follow-up to #16288: the new dynamic provider auth token flow currently defaults `refresh_interval_ms` to a non-zero value and rejects `0` entirely. For command-backed bearer auth, `0` should mean "never auto-refresh". That lets callers keep using the cached token until the backend actually returns `401 Unauthorized`, at which point Codex can rerun the auth command as part of the existing retry path. ## What changed - changed `ModelProviderAuthInfo.refresh_interval_ms` to accept `0` and documented that value as disabling proactive refresh - updated the external bearer token refresher to treat `refresh_interval_ms = 0` as an indefinitely reusable cached token, while still rerunning the auth command during unauthorized recovery - regenerated `core/config.schema.json` so the schema minimum is `0` and the new behavior is described in the field docs - added coverage for both config deserialization and the no-auto-refresh plus `401` recovery behavior ## How tested - `cargo test -p codex-protocol` - `cargo test -p codex-login` - `cargo test -p codex-core test_deserialize_provider_auth_config_`

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.
