Codex (fork) is a Rust-first coding agent forked from openai/codex.

This fork aims to match Claude Code-style workflows: agent teams, hooks, Anthropic API agent, and a Web UI served by codex serve.

Goal: a Rust OpenCode with multi-model support, multi-agent collaboration, and long-running orchestration.

Quickstart

Install (latest GitHub Release)

macOS, Linux, WSL:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/stellarlinkco/codex/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

The shell install command above prefers musl release assets when available, then gnu; gnu builds require glibc >= 2.35 (Ubuntu 22.04+).

Windows PowerShell:

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/stellarlinkco/codex/main/scripts/install.ps1 | iex

Copy/paste the command for your platform above to download the latest Release binary for your OS/arch. The shell command installs codex to ~/.local/bin and prints a PATH reminder.

Optional: Hodexctl

If you want to manage hodex separately without affecting an existing codex install, you can use hodexctl.

macOS, Linux, WSL:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/stellarlinkco/codex/main/scripts/hodexctl/hodexctl.sh -o ./hodexctl.sh
chmod +x ./hodexctl.sh
./hodexctl.sh

Windows PowerShell:

$script = Join-Path $env:TEMP "hodexctl.ps1"
Invoke-WebRequest https://raw.githubusercontent.com/stellarlinkco/codex/main/scripts/hodexctl/hodexctl.ps1 -OutFile $script
& $script

See Hodexctl guide for details.

Run

codex --version
codex serve
