## What it is
A cross-platform Electron rebuild of the OpenAI Codex Desktop app, distributed for macOS, Windows, and Linux. It packages the Codex coding assistant into native desktop builds using Electron Forge with automated CI/CD releases.

## Use cases
- run OpenAI Codex desktop app on Windows or Linux
- install Codex desktop client on macOS arm64
- use Codex AI coding assistant outside official platform support
- build Codex desktop app from source
- get a native desktop UI for the Codex CLI

## When to choose
- you want the Codex Desktop experience on platforms OpenAI doesn't officially support
- you prefer a desktop app over the Codex CLI
- you need prebuilt binaries for macOS, Windows, and Linux

## When to avoid
- you need an officially supported and licensed OpenAI product
- you require a project with a clear license for commercial use
- you only need the CLI, which the official open-source Codex provides
