`ParsedCommand::Read` has a `name` field that attempts to identify the
name of the file being read, but the file may not be in the `cwd` in
which the command is invoked as demonstrated by this existing unit test:
0139f6780c/codex-rs/core/src/parse_command.rs (L250-L260)
As you can see, `tui/Cargo.toml` is the relative path to the file being
read.
This PR introduces a new `path: PathBuf` field to `ParsedCommand::Read`
that attempts to capture this information. When possible, this is an
absolute path, though when relative, it should be resolved against the
`cwd` that will be used to run the command to derive the absolute path.
This should make it easier for clients to provide UI for a "read file"
event that corresponds to the command execution.
npm i -g @openai/codex
or brew install codex
Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.

Quickstart
Installing and running Codex CLI
Install globally with your preferred package manager. If you use npm:
npm install -g @openai/codex
Alternatively, if you use Homebrew:
brew install codex
Then simply run codex to get started:
codex
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.
