We try to ensure ripgrep (`rg`) is provided with Codex.
- For `brew`, we declare it as a dependency of our formula:
08d82d8b00/Formula/c/codex.rb (L24)
- For `npm`, we declare `@vscode/ripgrep` as a dependency, which
installs the platform-specific binary as part of a `postinstall` script:
fdb8dadcae/codex-cli/package.json (L22)
- Users who download the CLI directly from GitHub Releases are on their
own.
In practice, I have seen `@vscode/ripgrep` fail on occasion. Here is a
trace from a GitHub workflow:
```

```
To eliminate this error, this PR changes things so that we vendor the
`rg` binary into https://www.npmjs.com/package/@openai/codex so it is
guaranteed to be included when a user runs `npm i -g @openai/codex`.
The downside of this approach is the increase in package size: we
include the `rg` executable for six architectures (in addition to the
six copies of `codex` we already include). In a follow-up, I plan to add
support for "slices" of our npm module, so that soon users will be able
to do:
```
npm install -g @openai/codex@aarch64-apple-darwin
```
Admittedly, this is a sizable change and I tried to clean some things up
in the process:
- `install_native_deps.sh` has been replaced by `install_native_deps.py`
- `stage_release.sh` and `stage_rust_release.py` has been replaced by
`build_npm_package.py`
We now vendor in a DotSlash file for ripgrep (as a modest attempt to
facilitate local testing) and then build up the extension by:
- creating a temp directory and copying `package.json` over to it with
the target value for `"version"`
- finding the GitHub workflow that corresponds to the
`--release-version` and copying the various `codex` artifacts to
respective `vendor/TARGET_TRIPLE/codex` folder
- downloading the `rg` artifacts specified in the DotSlash file and
copying them over to the respective `vendor/TARGET_TRIPLE/path` folder
- if `--pack-output` is specified, runs `npm pack` on the temp directory
To test, I downloaded the artifact produced by this CI job:
https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/17961595388/job/51085840022?pr=3660
and verified that `node ./bin/codex.js 'which -a rg'` worked as
intended.
## Summary
Ripgrep is our preferred tool for file search. When users install via
`brew install codex`, it's automatically installed as a dependency. We
want to ensure that users running via an npm install also have this
tool! Microsoft has already solved this problem for VS Code - let's not
reinvent the wheel.
This approach of appending to the PATH directly might be a bit
heavy-handed, but feels reasonably robust to a variety of environment
concerns. Open to thoughts on better approaches here!
## Testing
- [x] confirmed this import approach works with `node -e "const { rgPath
} = require('@vscode/ripgrep'); require('child_process').spawn(rgPath,
['--version'], { stdio: 'inherit' })"`
- [x] Ran codex.js locally with `rg` uninstalled, asked it to run `which
rg`. Output below:
```
⚡ Ran command which rg; echo $?
⎿ /Users/dylan.hurd/code/dh--npm-rg/node_modules/@vscode/ripgrep/bin/rg
0
codex
Re-running to confirm the path and exit code.
- Path: `/Users/dylan.hurd/code/dh--npm-rg/node_modules/@vscode/ripgrep/bin/rg`
- Exit code: `0`
```
This deletes the bulk of the `codex-cli` folder and eliminates the logic
that builds the TypeScript code and bundles it into the release.
Since this PR modifies `.github/workflows/rust-release.yml`, to test
changes to the release process, I locally commented out all of the "is
this commit on upstream `main`" checks in
`scripts/create_github_release.sh` and ran:
```
./codex-rs/scripts/create_github_release.sh 0.20.0-alpha.4
```
Which kicked off:
https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/16842085113
And the release artifacts appear legit!
https://github.com/openai/codex/releases/tag/rust-v0.20.0-alpha.4
This PR introduces an optional build flag, `--native`, that will build a
version of the Codex npm module that:
- Includes both the Node.js and native Rust versions (for Mac and Linux)
- Will run the native version if `CODEX_RUST=1` is set
- Runs the TypeScript version otherwise
Note this PR also updates the workflow URL to
https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/14872557396, as that is a
build from today that includes everything up through
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/843.
Test Plan:
In `~/code/codex/codex-cli`, I ran:
```
pnpm stage-release --native
```
The end of the output was:
```
Staged version 0.1.2505121317 for release in /var/folders/wm/f209bc1n2bd_r0jncn9s6j_00000gp/T/tmp.xd2p5ETYGN
Test Node:
node /var/folders/wm/f209bc1n2bd_r0jncn9s6j_00000gp/T/tmp.xd2p5ETYGN/bin/codex.js --help
Test Rust:
CODEX_RUST=1 node /var/folders/wm/f209bc1n2bd_r0jncn9s6j_00000gp/T/tmp.xd2p5ETYGN/bin/codex.js --help
Next: cd "/var/folders/wm/f209bc1n2bd_r0jncn9s6j_00000gp/T/tmp.xd2p5ETYGN" && npm publish --tag native
```
I verified that running each of these commands ran the expected version
of Codex.
While here, I also added `bin` to the `files` list in `package.json`,
which should have been done as part of
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/757, as that added new entries to
`bin` that were matched by `.gitignore` but should have been included in
a release.
This introduces `./codex-cli/scripts/stage_release.sh`, which is a shell
script that stages a release for the Node.js module in a temp directory.
It updates the release to include these native binaries:
```
bin/codex-linux-sandbox-arm64
bin/codex-linux-sandbox-x64
```
though this PR does not update Codex CLI to use them yet.
When doing local development, run
`./codex-cli/scripts/install_native_deps.sh` to install these in your
own `bin/` folder.
This PR also updates `README.md` to document the new workflow.

I am working to simplify the build process. As a first step, update
`session.ts` so it reads the `version` from `package.json` at runtime so
we no longer have to modify it during the build process. I want to get
to a place where the build looks like:
```
cd codex-cli
pnpm i
pnpm build
RELEASE_DIR=$(mktemp -d)
cp -r bin "$RELEASE_DIR/bin"
cp -r dist "$RELEASE_DIR/dist"
cp -r src "$RELEASE_DIR/src" # important if we want sourcemaps to continue to work
cp ../README.md "$RELEASE_DIR"
VERSION=$(printf '0.1.%d' $(date +%y%m%d%H%M))
jq --arg version "$VERSION" '.version = $version' package.json > "$RELEASE_DIR/package.json"
```
Then the contents of `$RELEASE_DIR` should be good to `npm publish`, no?

## Description
This PR addresses the following improvements:
**Unify Prettier Version**: Currently, the Prettier version used in
`/package.json` and `/codex-cli/package.json` are different. In this PR,
we're updating both to use Prettier v3.
- Prettier v3 introduces improved support for JavaScript and TypeScript.
(e.g. the formatting scenario shown in the image below. This is more
aligned with the TypeScript indentation standard).
<img width="1126" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/6e237eb8-4553-4574-b336-ed9561c55370"
/>
**Add Prettier Auto-Formatting in lint-staged**: We've added a step to
automatically run prettier --write on JavaScript and TypeScript files as
part of the lint-staged process, before the ESLint checks.
- This will help ensure that all committed code is properly formatted
according to the project's Prettier configuration.

Publish shouldn't need the source files published along with the
distributable bin.
`src` is being shipped to the registry rn:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/@openai/codex?activeTab=code
You can verify that the src is not needed by packing the project
manually after removing src from the files:
```sh
# from the codex-cli dir
rm -rf dist # just for hygiene
pnpm run build
pnpm pack
mkdir /tmp/codex-tar-test
mv openai-codex-0.1.2504181820.tgz /tmp/codex-tar-test
cd /tmp/codex-tar-test
pnpm init
pnpm add ./openai-codex-0.1.2504181820.tgz /tmp/codex-tar-test
pnpm exec codex --full-auto "run a bash -c command to echo hello world"
```

## Background
Addressing feedback from
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/333#discussion_r2050893224, this PR
adds support for Bun alongside npm, pnpm while keeping the code simple.
## Summary
The update‑check flow is refactored to use a direct registry lookup
(`fast-npm-meta` + `semver`) instead of shelling out to `npm outdated`,
and adds a lightweight installer‑detection mechanism that:
1. Checks if the invoked script lives under a known global‑bin directory
(npm, pnpm, or bun)
2. If not, falls back to local detection via `getUserAgent()` (the
`package‑manager‑detector` library)
## What’s Changed
- **Registry‑based version check**
- Replace `execFile("npm", ["outdated"])` with `getLatestVersion()` and
`semver.gt()`
- **Multi‑manager support**
- New `renderUpdateCommand` handles update commands for `npm`, `pnpm`,
and `bun`.
- Detect global installer first via `detectInstallerByPath()`
- Fallback to local detection via `getUserAgent()`
- **Module cleanup**
- Extract `detectInstallerByPath` into
`utils/package-manager-detector.ts`
- Remove legacy `checkOutdated`, `getNPMCommandPath`, and child‑process
JSON parsing
- **Flow improvements in `checkForUpdates`**
1. Short‑circuit by `UPDATE_CHECK_FREQUENCY`
3. Fetch & compare versions
4. Persist new timestamp immediately
5. Render & display styled box only when an update exists
- **Maintain simplicity**
- All multi‑manager logic lives in one small helper and a concise lookup
rather than a complex adapter hierarchy
- Core `checkForUpdates` remains a single, easy‑to‑follow async function
- **Dependencies added**
- `fast-npm-meta`, `semver`, `package-manager-detector`, `@types/semver`
## Considerations
If we decide to drop the interactive update‑message (`npm install -g
@openai/codex`) rendering altogether, we could remove most of the
installer‑detection code and dependencies, which would simplify the
codebase further but result in a less friendly UX.

# Improve Developer Experience with Husky and lint-staged for pnpm
Monorepo
## Summary
This PR enhances the developer experience by configuring Husky and
lint-staged to work properly with our pnpm monorepo structure. It
centralizes Git hooks at the root level and ensures consistent code
quality across the project.
## Changes
- Centralized Husky and lint-staged configuration at the monorepo root
- Added pre-commit hook that runs lint-staged to enforce code quality
- Configured lint-staged to:
- Format JSON, MD, and YAML files with Prettier
- Lint and typecheck TypeScript files before commits
- Fixed release script in codex-cli package.json (changed "pmpm" to "npm
publish")
- Removed duplicate Husky and lint-staged configurations from codex-cli
package.json
## Benefits
- **Consistent Code Quality**: Ensures all committed code meets project
standards
- **Automated Formatting**: Automatically formats code during commits
- **Early Error Detection**: Catches type errors and lint issues before
they're committed
- **Centralized Configuration**: Easier to maintain and update in one
place
- **Improved Collaboration**: Ensures consistent code style across the
team
## Future Improvements
We could further enhance this setup by
**Commit Message Validation**: Add commitlint to enforce conventional
commit messages

Co-authored-by: Thibault Sottiaux <tibo@openai.com>
**Summary**
This change introduces a new startup check that notifies users if a
newer `@openai/codex` version is available. To avoid spamming, it writes
a small state file recording the last check time and will only re‑check
once every 24 hours.
**What’s Changed**
- **New file** `src/utils/check-updates.ts`
- Runs `npm outdated --global @openai/codex`
- Reads/writes `codex-state.json` under `CONFIG_DIR`
- Limits checks to once per day (`UPDATE_CHECK_FREQUENCY = 24h`)
- Uses `boxen` for a styled alert and `which` to locate the npm binary
- **Hooked into** `src/cli.tsx` entrypoint:
```ts
import { checkForUpdates } from "./utils/check-updates";
// …
// after loading config
await checkForUpdates().catch();
```
- **Dependencies**
- Added `boxen@^8.0.1`, `which@^5.0.0`, `@types/which@^3.0.4`
- **Tests**
- Vitest suite under `tests/check-updates.test.ts`
- Snapshot in `__snapshots__/check-updates.test.ts.snap`
**Motivation**
Addresses issue #244. Users running a stale global install will now see
a friendly reminder—at most once per day—to upgrade and enjoy the latest
features.
**Test Plan**
- `getNPMCommandPath()` resolves npm correctly
- `checkOutdated()` parses `npm outdated` JSON
- State file prevents repeat alerts within 24h
- Boxen snapshot matches expected output
- No console output when state indicates a recent check
**Related Issue**
try resolves#244
**Preview**
Prompt a pnpm‑style alert when outdated

Let me know if you’d tweak any of the messaging, throttle frequency,
placement in the startup flow, or anything else.

# Migrate to pnpm for improved monorepo management
## Summary
This PR migrates the Codex repository from npm to pnpm, providing faster
dependency installation, better disk space usage, and improved monorepo
management.
## Changes
- Added `pnpm-workspace.yaml` to define workspace packages
- Added `.npmrc` with optimal pnpm configuration
- Updated root package.json with workspace scripts
- Moved resolutions and overrides to the root package.json
- Updated scripts to use pnpm instead of npm
- Added documentation for the migration
- Updated GitHub Actions workflow for pnpm
## Benefits
- **Faster installations**: pnpm is significantly faster than npm
- **Disk space savings**: pnpm's content-addressable store avoids
duplication
- **Strict dependency management**: prevents phantom dependencies
- **Simplified monorepo management**: better workspace coordination
- **Preparation for Turborepo**: as discussed, this is the first step
before adding Turborepo
## Testing
- Verified that `pnpm install` works correctly
- Verified that `pnpm run build` completes successfully
- Ensured all existing functionality is preserved
## Documentation
Added a detailed migration guide in `PNPM_MIGRATION.md` explaining:
- Why we're migrating to pnpm
- How to use pnpm with this repository
- Common commands and workspace-specific commands
- Monorepo structure and configuration
## Next Steps
As discussed, once this change is stable, we can consider adding
Turborepo as a follow-up enhancement.
# Fix CLI launcher on Windows by replacing `sh`-based entrypoint with
cross-platform Node script
## What's changed
* This PR attempts to replace the sh-based entry point with a node
script that works on all platforms including Windows Powershell and CMD
## Why
* Previously, when installing Codex globally via `npm i -g
@openai/codex`, Windows resulted in a broken CLI issue due to the `ps1`
launcher trying to execute `sh.exe`.
* If users don't have Unix-style shell, running the command will fail as
seen below since `sh.exe` can't be found
* Output:
```
& : The term 'sh.exe' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet,
function, script file, or operable program. Check the
spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is
correct and try again.
At C:\Users\{user}\AppData\Roaming\npm\codex.ps1:24 char:7
+ & "sh$exe" "$basedir/node_modules/@openai/codex/bin/codex" $args
+ ~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (sh.exe:String) [],
CommandNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException
```
## How
* By using a Node based entry point that resolves the path to the compiled ESM bundle and dynamically loads it using native ESM
* Removed dependency on platform-specific launchers allowing a single entrypoint to work everywhere Node.js runs.
## Result
Codex CLI now supports cross-platform and launches correctly via:
* macOS / Linux
* Windows PowerShell
* GitBash
* CMD
* WSL
Directly addresses #316


This PR adds a shell wrapper in `codex-cli/bin/codex` to detect node or
bun as the runtime.
It updates:
- `package.json` bin entry
- published files list to include bin/
- README install instructions to include `bun install -g @openai/codex`
# Shell Command Explanation Option
## Description
This PR adds an option to explain shell commands when the user is
prompted to approve them (Fixes#110). When reviewing a shell command,
users can now select "Explain this command" to get a detailed
explanation of what the command does before deciding whether to approve
or reject it.
## Changes
- Added a new "EXPLAIN" option to the `ReviewDecision` enum
- Updated the command review UI to include an "Explain this command (x)"
option
- Implemented the logic to send the command to the LLM for explanation
using the same model as the agent
- Added a display for the explanation in the command review UI
- Updated all relevant components to pass the explanation through the
component tree
## Benefits
- Improves user understanding of shell commands before approving them
- Reduces the risk of approving potentially harmful commands
- Enhances the educational aspect of the tool, helping users learn about
shell commands
- Maintains the same workflow with minimal UI changes
## Testing
- Manually tested the explanation feature with various shell commands
- Verified that the explanation is displayed correctly in the UI
- Confirmed that the user can still approve or reject the command after
viewing the explanation
## Screenshots

## Additional Notes
The explanation is generated using the same model as the agent, ensuring
consistency in the quality and style of explanations.
