@obversa/engine-codex is an engine plugin that runs requests through the codex command-line interface. It provides an OpenAI-backed engine for verification and review seats.

Requirements

  • Node.js 22.12 or later
  • A local Codex CLI installation with existing authentication

Install

Identity

The plugin serves the OpenAI provider. It reports provider: 'openai' and uses request.model or options.defaultModel. When neither is set, the CLI runs without an explicit model flag.

Usage

Pass the engine instance into the Obversa runtime.

Limits

  • The engine runs in a read-only sandbox by default; write permissions require permissionMode: 'bypassPermissions'.
  • Subprocess execution requires a working Codex binary in PATH or an explicit cliBinary path.
  • Large prompts pass through standard input, and final output is read from a temporary file.
