#### Summary - Emit a “Proposed Command” history cell when an ExecApprovalRequest arrives (parity with proposed patches). - Simplify the approval dialog: show only the reason/instructions; move the command preview into history. - Make approval/abort decision history concise: - Single line snippet; if multiline, show first line + " ...". - Truncate to 80 graphemes with ellipsis for very long commands. #### Details - History - Add `new_proposed_command` to render a header and indented command preview. - Use shared `prefix_lines` helper for first/subsequent line prefixes. - Approval UI - `UserApprovalWidget` no longer renders the command in the modal; shows optional `reason` text only. - Decision history renders an inline, dimmed snippet per rules above. - Tests (snapshot-based) - Proposed/decision flow for short command. - Proposed multi-line + aborted decision snippet with “ ...”. - Very long one-line command -> truncated snippet with “…”. - Updated existing exec approval snapshots and test reasons. <img width="1053" height="704" alt="Screenshot 2025-09-03 at 11 57 35 AM" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9ed4c316-9daf-4ac1-80ff-7ae1f481dd10" /> after approving: <img width="1053" height="704" alt="Screenshot 2025-09-03 at 11 58 18 AM" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a44e243f-eb9d-42ea-87f4-171b3fb481e7" /> rejection: <img width="1053" height="207" alt="Screenshot 2025-09-03 at 11 58 45 AM" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a022664b-ae0e-4b70-a388-509208707934" /> big command: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2dd976e5-799f-4af7-9682-a046e66cc494
OpenAI Codex CLI
npm i -g @openai/codex
or brew install codex
Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.
If you are looking for the cloud-based agent from OpenAI, Codex Web, see chatgpt.com/codex.
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.
