feat: initial import of Rust implementation of Codex CLI in codex-rs/ (#629)
As stated in `codex-rs/README.md`:
Today, Codex CLI is written in TypeScript and requires Node.js 22+ to
run it. For a number of users, this runtime requirement inhibits
adoption: they would be better served by a standalone executable. As
maintainers, we want Codex to run efficiently in a wide range of
environments with minimal overhead. We also want to take advantage of
operating system-specific APIs to provide better sandboxing, where
possible.
To that end, we are moving forward with a Rust implementation of Codex
CLI contained in this folder, which has the following benefits:
- The CLI compiles to small, standalone, platform-specific binaries.
- Can make direct, native calls to
[seccomp](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/seccomp.2.html) and
[landlock](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/landlock.7.html) in
order to support sandboxing on Linux.
- No runtime garbage collection, resulting in lower memory consumption
and better, more predictable performance.
Currently, the Rust implementation is materially behind the TypeScript
implementation in functionality, so continue to use the TypeScript
implmentation for the time being. We will publish native executables via
GitHub Releases as soon as we feel the Rust version is usable.

feat: support mcp_servers in config.toml (#829)
This adds initial support for MCP servers in the style of Claude Desktop
and Cursor. Note this PR is the bare minimum to get things working end
to end: all configured MCP servers are launched every time Codex is run,
there is no recovery for MCP servers that crash, etc.
(Also, I took some shortcuts to change some fields of `Session` to be
`pub(crate)`, which also means there are circular deps between
`codex.rs` and `mcp_tool_call.rs`, but I will clean that up in a
subsequent PR.)
`codex-rs/README.md` is updated as part of this PR to explain how to use
this feature. There is a bit of plumbing to route the new settings from
`Config` to the business logic in `codex.rs`. The most significant
chunks for new code are in `mcp_connection_manager.rs` (which defines
the `McpConnectionManager` struct) and `mcp_tool_call.rs`, which is
responsible for tool calls.
This PR also introduces new `McpToolCallBegin` and `McpToolCallEnd`
event types to the protocol, but does not add any handlers for them.
(See https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/836 for initial usage.)
To test, I added the following to my `~/.codex/config.toml`:
```toml
# Local build of https://github.com/hideya/mcp-server-weather-js
[mcp_servers.weather]
command = "/Users/mbolin/code/mcp-server-weather-js/dist/index.js"
args = []
```
And then I ran the following:
```
codex-rs$ cargo run --bin codex exec 'what is the weather in san francisco'
[2025-05-06T22:40:05] Task started: 1
[2025-05-06T22:40:18] Agent message: Here’s the latest National Weather Service forecast for San Francisco (downtown, near 37.77° N, 122.42° W):
This Afternoon (Tue):
• Sunny, high near 69 °F
• West-southwest wind around 12 mph
Tonight:
• Partly cloudy, low around 52 °F
• SW wind 7–10 mph
...
```
Note that Codex itself is not able to make network calls, so it would
not normally be able to get live weather information like this. However,
the weather MCP is [currently] not run under the Codex sandbox, so it is
able to hit `api.weather.gov` and fetch current weather information.

feat: configurable notifications in the Rust CLI (#793)
With this change, you can specify a program that will be executed to get
notified about events generated by Codex. The notification info will be
packaged as a JSON object. The supported notification types are defined
by the `UserNotification` enum introduced in this PR. Initially, it
contains only one variant, `AgentTurnComplete`:
```rust
pub(crate) enum UserNotification {
#[serde(rename_all = "kebab-case")]
AgentTurnComplete {
turn_id: String,
/// Messages that the user sent to the agent to initiate the turn.
input_messages: Vec<String>,
/// The last message sent by the assistant in the turn.
last_assistant_message: Option<String>,
},
}
```
This is intended to support the common case when a "turn" ends, which
often means it is now your chance to give Codex further instructions.
For example, I have the following in my `~/.codex/config.toml`:
```toml
notify = ["python3", "/Users/mbolin/.codex/notify.py"]
```
I created my own custom notifier script that calls out to
[terminal-notifier](https://github.com/julienXX/terminal-notifier) to
show a desktop push notification on macOS. Contents of `notify.py`:
```python
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import json
import subprocess
import sys
def main() -> int:
if len(sys.argv) != 2:
print("Usage: notify.py <NOTIFICATION_JSON>")
return 1
try:
notification = json.loads(sys.argv[1])
except json.JSONDecodeError:
return 1
match notification_type := notification.get("type"):
case "agent-turn-complete":
assistant_message = notification.get("last-assistant-message")
if assistant_message:
title = f"Codex: {assistant_message}"
else:
title = "Codex: Turn Complete!"
input_messages = notification.get("input_messages", [])
message = " ".join(input_messages)
title += message
case _:
print(f"not sending a push notification for: {notification_type}")
return 0
subprocess.check_output(
[
"terminal-notifier",
"-title",
title,
"-message",
message,
"-group",
"codex",
"-ignoreDnD",
"-activate",
"com.googlecode.iterm2",
]
)
return 0
if __name__ == "__main__":
sys.exit(main())
```
For reference, here are related PRs that tried to add this functionality
to the TypeScript version of the Codex CLI:
* https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/160
* https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/498
