title: Codex Local
|
|
summary: OpenAI Codex local adapter setup and configuration
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
The `codex_local` adapter runs OpenAI's Codex CLI locally. It supports session persistence via `previous_response_id` chaining and skills injection through the global Codex skills directory.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- Codex CLI installed (`codex` command available)
|
|
- `OPENAI_API_KEY` set in the environment or agent config
|
|
|
|
## Configuration Fields
|
|
|
|
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|
|
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
|
|
| `cwd` | string | Yes | Working directory for the agent process (absolute path; created automatically if missing when permissions allow) |
|
|
| `model` | string | No | Model to use |
|
|
| `promptTemplate` | string | No | Prompt used for all runs |
|
|
| `env` | object | No | Environment variables (supports secret refs) |
|
|
| `timeoutSec` | number | No | Process timeout (0 = no timeout) |
|
|
| `graceSec` | number | No | Grace period before force-kill |
|
|
| `dangerouslyBypassApprovalsAndSandbox` | boolean | No | Skip safety checks (dev only) |
|
|
|
|
## Session Persistence
|
|
|
|
Codex uses `previous_response_id` for session continuity. The adapter serializes and restores this across heartbeats, allowing the agent to maintain conversation context.
|
|
|
|
## Skills Injection
|
|
|
|
The adapter symlinks Paperclip skills into the global Codex skills directory (`~/.codex/skills`). Existing user skills are not overwritten.
|
|
|
|
For manual local CLI usage outside heartbeat runs (for example running as `codexcoder` directly), use:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
pnpm paperclipai agent local-cli codexcoder --company-id <company-id>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This installs any missing skills, creates an agent API key, and prints shell exports to run as that agent.
|
|
|
|
## Environment Test
|
|
|
|
The environment test checks:
|
|
|
|
- Codex CLI is installed and accessible
|
|
- Working directory is absolute and available (auto-created if missing and permitted)
|
|
- Authentication signal (`OPENAI_API_KEY` presence)
|
|
- A live hello probe (`codex exec --json -` with prompt `Respond with hello.`) to verify the CLI can actually run
