| Terminal-based Coding Assistant | Codex CLI is a terminal-based interactive coding assistant for editing code, generating patches, and running commands in the command line. | | Tool-Driven Architecture | Provides tools such as apply_patch, shell, update_plan, and multi_tool_use for controlled modification of repository files and operations. | | Atomic Patch Editing | Uses a specialized patch format to atomically add/update/delete files via apply_patch, facilitating auditing and rollback. | | Sandbox and Approval | Supports sandbox policies (e.g., workspace-write, read-only) and approval modes (on-request, on-failure, never) to control write and network access permissions. | | Plan Tracking | update_plan is used to list steps and track status, requiring only one in_progress step at all times to maintain clear progress. | | Interaction Protocol | Sends brief introductory explanations before important operations, maintaining a friendly, concise tone and providing progress updates. | | Security Constraints | Adheres to strict rules (no arbitrary changes to unrelated files, no adding copyright headers, no executing destructive commands), requiring user approval for sensitive operations. | | Testing and Formatting | Recommends running relevant tests and formatting tools after modifications, but is not responsible for fixing issues unrelated to the current task. | | Output and Style | Final output adheres to CLI rendering specifications (e.g., ** for headings, backticks for paths/commands), maintaining a scannable and concise structure. | | Parallel Execution | Supports running multiple tools in parallel via multi_tool_use.parallel to improve efficiency. |
