Unofficial ChatGPT desktop app for Linux (formerly the Codex app), built locally from OpenAI’s official macOS app. Includes Chat, Work, and Codex. Packages for Debian/Ubuntu (.deb), Fedora/openSUSE (.rpm), Arch (pacman), Nix/NixOS, and AppImage, with Wayland and X11 support.

About the project

codex-desktop is an unofficial, community-maintained Linux distribution of OpenAI’s ChatGPT desktop application, packaged for several Linux formats and desktop environments. Linux users install it to access Chat, Work, and Codex through a desktop app built from the signed upstream Linux payload. Its catalogue skills, agents, instructions, and MCP integration extend workflows around the application.

These files are ilysenko/codex-desktop-linux's own configuration. They tell Codex and OpenCode how to work on this repository, so they are not mods to install elsewhere. Copy one as a starting point and replace the parts that are about this project.
