FAQPage Schema
How do I configure OpenAI Codex approval modes and sandbox network access for a CI run?

To configure OpenAI Codex for a CI run, use the non-interactive scripting command codex exec. You can define specific approval modes and sandbox network access rules within your config.toml profiles to safely automate operations.

What is the purpose of AGENTS.md and config.toml profiles in Codex?

AGENTS.md and config.toml profiles define operational rules and configuration settings for Codex. They allow you to set specific behaviors, manage approvals, and control sandboxing across CLI, app, IDE extension, and cloud environments.

Can I integrate MCP servers with Codex CLI and cloud environments?

Yes, you can integrate MCP servers with Codex across CLI, app, IDE extension, and cloud. The integration allows you to connect external tools and data sources, extending Codex capabilities within your configured sandbox and network access rules.

Does Codex support enterprise managed configuration and governance?

Yes, Codex supports enterprise managed configuration and governance. It includes documentation for security practices, protected paths, and network access controls to ensure safe operation across teams using CLI, app, or cloud environments.

What are the best ways to set up sandbox rules and protected paths in Codex?

The best way to set up sandbox rules and protected paths in Codex is through config.toml. This configuration file allows you to define specific network access restrictions, protected paths, and approval modes to ensure safe operational behavior.

Why does my codex exec automation fail without proper config.toml setup?

Your codex exec automation fails without proper config.toml setup because non-interactive scripting requires predefined profiles. Without explicit approval modes and sandbox configurations, Codex cannot safely execute automated tasks within your environment.
