Codex

Codex app and CLI basics, plan mode, Git integration, approvals, and sandboxing.

What is Codex?

Codex is OpenAI's coding agent and is available through app and CLI workflows.

Why use plan mode in Codex?

Plan mode separates deciding what to do from changing the project.

What can Codex Git integration help you do?

Codex can show diffs and help with common Git operations while keeping the changes reviewable.

What does a read-only sandbox allow?

Read-only mode limits the agent to inspection, which is useful for questions and planning.

What does the /diff command help you inspect?

A diff shows exactly what changed so you can review the agent's work.
