--PROMPT PROMPT Instruction for the task to send to codex.
--cd CD Set the workspace root for codex before executing the task.
--sandbox {read-only,workspace-write,danger-full-access}
Sandbox policy for model-generated commands. Defaults to `read-only`.
--SESSION_ID SESSION_ID
Resume the specified session of the codex. Defaults to `None`, start a new session.
--skip-git-repo-check
Allow codex running outside a Git repository (useful for one-off directories).
--return-all-messages

returned.
--image IMAGE Attach one or more image files to the initial prompt. Separate multiple paths with commas or repeat the flag.
--model MODEL The model to use for the codex session. This parameter is strictly prohibited unless explicitly specified by the user.
--yolo Run every command without approvals or sandboxing. Only use when `sandbox` couldn't be applied.
--profile PROFILE Configuration profile name to load from `~/.codex/config.toml`. This parameter is strictly prohibited unless explicitly specified by the user.Multi-turn Sessions
Always capture SESSION_ID from the first response for follow-up:
# Initial task
python scripts/codex_bridge.py --cd "/project" --PROMPT "Analyze auth in login.py"
# Continue with SESSION_ID
python scripts/codex_bridge.py --cd "/project" --SESSION_ID "uuid-from-response" --PROMPT "Write unit tests for that"Common Patterns
Prototyping (read-only, request diffs):
python scripts/codex_bridge.py --cd "/project" --PROMPT "Generate unified diff to add logging"Debug with full trace:
python scripts/codex_bridge.py --cd "/project" --PROMPT "Debug this error" --return-all-messages
