Install Codex CLI

If you already use Codex on the Mac, this page is closer to a verification checklist than an installation guide. CodexPocketMac depends on the Mac-side Codex environment, so the codex command must be visible.

Commands to check​

Run these in Terminal:

which codex
codex app-server --help

The expected results are:

  • which codex prints a path
  • codex app-server --help does not fail

If it does not work​

  • if which codex is empty, revisit the Codex CLI installation or PATH
  • if it works in Terminal but the Mac app does not detect it, restart the Mac app
  • you can also inspect the Codex CLI row in Details

What this enables​

  • starting Bridge
  • fetching the Thread list for each Project
  • using Composer and Exec from the iPhone

If Codex CLI is missing, the iPhone may reach the connection stage, but it will not get as far as doing real work.
