# Local Codex

Hand a coding job to Codex on your own machine

## What this does

Sometimes you want a second coding agent to take a job off your hands. This launches and manages the Codex command line tool locally as that second agent, running without needing to sit in its prompt. It signs in through your existing ChatGPT Pro account rather than an API key, so there are no per-call charges.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Delegate a coding task to Codex
- Get a code review from Codex
- Generate or refactor code with Codex

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## About Local Codex

This launches and manages the OpenAI Codex command line tool as a non-interactive coding sub-agent, so you can hand work to it rather than driving it by hand.

Use it when you want to delegate coding tasks to Codex, run code reviews, generate or refactor code, or reach the Codex agent through the local CLI. It picks up on phrasing like run codex, code review with codex, or delegate to codex.

Authentication goes through ChatGPT Pro OAuth using the local Codex credentials file - a flat rate with no API charges. It never uses API keys.

## Questions

### Is Local Codex safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Local Codex and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit d219ed5fca19, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/local-codex.

### How do I install Local Codex?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/local-codex on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/daymade/claude-code-skills/tree/d219ed5fca19115824dcbd21428226fff465d3f3/local-codex. Install from that link, not the branch.
