Codex App Manager is a cross-platform desktop utility for installing, updating, launching, and uninstalling the official OpenAI Codex desktop application. It detects existing installations and prepares appropriate maintenance operations for the user's operating system. On macOS, it supports incremental updates through Sparkle, downloading smaller packages when compatible updates are available. Windows users can manage MSIX or portable installations with installation health checks. The application verifies update integrity and supports rollback when certain macOS update operations fail. Its distribution system uses regional mirrors to improve accessibility, particularly in mainland China. Users can also browse, preview, and apply customizable Codex interface skins. Built with Tauri, Rust, and React, it supports Windows and macOS on Intel and ARM-based hardware.
