cli

A command for running any command supported by the locally installed Codex command-line tool.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps inspect available options, list features, MCP servers, or plugins, check system health, view cloud task status, and resume a session.
Why use it?
It gives access to Codex options that do not have their own shortcut, while using the installed tool's current help and commands.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cli scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Run a raw Codex CLI command through the shared companion runtime.

Raw slash-command arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Use this for Codex features that are not first-class codex-router commands, such as:

  • --help and <command> --help to inspect the installed CLI's current flags
  • features list
  • mcp list
  • plugin list
  • doctor
  • cloud status <task-id>
  • resume <session-id>

Do not rely on a copied Router list of raw Codex flags. Use the installed CLI help so newly added commands and options are visible without a Router release.

Do not use this command for normal delegated analyze/exec/review/rescue work when a first-class /codex-router:* command exists. Do not launch a bare interactive Codex TUI unless the user explicitly asks for it and understands it may not return cleanly through Claude Code's command runner.

Run:

node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/codex-companion.mjs" cli "$ARGUMENTS"

Return stdout and stderr verbatim, exactly as-is.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

cli is a command published in the GitHub repository gitguffaw/codex-router (2 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 13 tokens to every session and 279 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
