Codex++ Linux is a packaging and launcher project that depends on several upstream projects. Please star, support, and contribute upstream where possible.

OpenAI Codex

  • Latest checked upstream ref: f98e7e9 on main (Merge codex/1.0.0), checked 2026-06-07.
  • Citation: Codex++ describes itself as a tweak system for the Codex desktop app that injects custom features, fixes UI bugs, and adds a tweak manager without rebuilding the app.
