Why we included this project
Codex CLI is OpenAI's coding agent that runs on your own machine rather than in the cloud. It reads your repository, makes edits, and can execute the tools already on your system, all from an interactive session. That makes it useful for exploring unfamiliar code, working through a change, debugging, or reviewing uncommitted work before you commit or open a pull request. The same engine is also available as a non-interactive command for scripts and CI pipelines, with support for skills, plugins, MCP servers, and subagents. Because it runs locally, you control permissions, sandboxing, and which model it uses, which matters if you'd rather not depend on a cloud-only service.
