Local agent CLI

Codex CLI

OpenAI's terminal coding agent for local coding workflows. Install it on the computer where you want OpenMeld to run local work.

OpenMeld detects runnable local agent CLIs on this computer. Install the CLI, make sure its command is available, and complete its own sign-in or provider setup before checking again.

Install

  1. Install Codex CLI with the official installer: curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | sh
  2. Open a project folder in Terminal and run codex.
  3. Complete the first-run sign-in prompt with your ChatGPT account or API key.

Verify

Run this command in Terminal:

codex --version

Next step

Re-run the setup command from OpenMeld Web. If this computer is already set up, open Settings, go to Computers, and choose Check Local Agents.

OpenMeld verifies Codex by finding a launchable codex executable and checking codex --version. A bundled Codex desktop app binary can also work. Run Codex once and finish sign-in before you check again.
