Codex

Integrate Intutic governance with OpenAI Codex — OpenAI's autonomous coding agent.

How it works

Codex uses environment variables for configuration. Since Intutic can't inject env vars into a running process, it writes a .env.intutic file with proxy URL variables that Codex can source before starting.

Setup

1. Codex detection

Codex is detected by either:

• The CODEX_HOME environment variable being set, or
• The codex binary being found in your PATH

No config file needs to exist beforehand.

2. Initialize Intutic

intutic init

✓ Detected harnesses:
  • codex → .env.intutic

3. Source the env file

Before starting Codex, source the generated environment file:

source .env.intutic
codex

4. Start sync

intutic connect

What gets written

A .env.intutic file with proxy URLs and metadata:

# Intutic Governance Rules (auto-generated)
# DO NOT EDIT — managed by intutic sync daemon
# Last sync: 2026-06-11T22:24:00Z
# Source this file: source .env.intutic

ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=https://proxy.intutic.dev/v1
OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://proxy.intutic.dev/v1
INTUTIC_PROXY_URL=https://proxy.intutic.dev/v1
INTUTIC_SOP_COUNT=5

Shell integration

Add source .env.intutic 2>/dev/null to your shell profile or project's .envrc to auto-load on every session.
