Thanks for helping improve Chill Codex.
This project is intentionally small. The best contributions keep it easy to inspect, easy to uninstall, and easy to trust.
Chill Codex should remain:
- A tiny macOS launcher generator for Codex.
- A shell-script-first project.
- Safe by default: no
sudo, no patching, no replacing Codex binaries. - Easy to audit before running.
Please avoid expanding the project into a general-purpose CLI, GUI app, package manager, or all-Electron-app launcher unless there is a clear maintainer decision to change the scope.

Keep commands, paths, installation URLs, disclaimers, and verification steps aligned across translations.
Good pull requests usually include:
- A short explanation of the user-facing problem.
- The smallest change that solves it.
- Updated tests when installer or uninstaller behavior changes.
- Updated docs when commands, paths, flags, or support boundaries change.
When reporting a bug, include:
- macOS version.
- Codex version if available.
- How Codex was installed.
- The exact install command you ran.
- The output of:
