How to install codex

Codex is a coding assistant that works inside the terminal. Everything below is context rather than instruction — the project publishes its own material, and this note simply points at what matters.

Paths onto a machine

Nothing universal applies here. Maintainers normally spell out the supported options, and the answer can differ between platforms and between releases.

Who is behind it

Ownership sits with the project's own contributors. Release cadence, supported platforms and documentation are all decided by them, and none of it is mediated here.

Worth confirming early

Confirm the platform still falls inside the supported range. Projects of this kind move quickly, and older systems tend to be dropped with little ceremony.

Reading the outcome

Surprises here are rarely the project's fault. Ordering inside the environment decides which copy wins, and that ordering is easy to get wrong.

What this domain is

This domain carries reading notes only. Nothing is stored or re-published here, and every project remains where its authors placed it.

Keeping environments clean

Isolating environments, whether with a version manager or per-project directories, removes a whole category of confusing behaviour later on.
