Charlie Marsh 88b498ded4 Route Linux PTY launches through the process setup helper (#47617)
## Why

PTY launches need to establish a controlling terminal and reset signal state. Extend the Linux process setup helper to perform this work in a fresh, single-threaded process image without forking the application when the native helper is available.

## What changed

- Add a PTY setup mode and support caller-owned stdout and stderr descriptors so all three standard streams use the PTY slave.
- Use the helper for eligible Linux PTY launches, including launches with explicitly preserved descriptors, and wait for child exit asynchronously.
- Preserve portable PTY behavior for `PATH` lookup, custom `argv[0]`, missing working directories, default `SHELL`, stdin EOF, and signal exit status.
- Retain compatibility fallbacks and release the initial PTY descriptors before allocating a portable replacement.

## Testing

Add regression tests for controlling-terminal setup without forking, portable signal exit status, and successful fallback under file-descriptor pressure. Resolve the Python test executable to an absolute path to exercise the helper path.

Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.

Codex CLI splash


If you want Codex in your code editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), install in your IDE.
If you want the desktop app experience, run codex app or visit the Codex App page.
If you are looking for the cloud-based agent from OpenAI, Codex Web, go to chatgpt.com/codex.


Quickstart

Installing and running Codex CLI

Run the following on Mac or Linux to install Codex CLI:

curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | sh

Run the following on Windows to install Codex CLI:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex"

The standalone installers download from https://releases.openai.com/codex by default and fall back to GitHub Releases if a metadata or asset download is unavailable. To force GitHub Releases, set CODEX_INSTALLER_USE_RELEASES_OPENAI_COM to false (0 and no are also accepted):

curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | CODEX_INSTALLER_USE_RELEASES_OPENAI_COM=false sh
$env:CODEX_INSTALLER_USE_RELEASES_OPENAI_COM='false'; irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex

Codex CLI can also be installed via the following package managers:

# Install using npm
npm install -g @openai/codex
# Install using Homebrew
brew install --cask codex

Then simply run codex to get started.

You can also go to the latest GitHub Release and download the appropriate binary for your platform.

Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these:

  • macOS
    • Apple Silicon/arm64: codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
    • x86_64 (older Mac hardware): codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
  • Linux
    • x86_64: codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
    • arm64: codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz

Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl), so you likely want to rename it to codex after extracting it.

Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan
