## Why Codex CLI is great (and why this plugin builds on it)

- **No API Key needed. Sign in with ChatGPT.** — Signing into your ChatGPT account to use Codex as part of your Plus, Pro, Team, Edu, or Enterprise plan. [Learn what’s included in your ChatGPT plan.](https://help.openai.com/en/articles/11369540-codex-in-chatgpt)

- **Chat history built-in** — Codex manages conversation threads and can resume them across sessions.

- **Directory-aware by design** — Make summaries, reports, and more for all the notes in your vault. Codex is built to work inside a project folder, so it can reason over files in your vault.

## Important notes

- During plugin setup, Redstone downloads the official Codex CLI binary for your system into the plugin directory. File details and release assets: https://github.com/openai/codex/releases/

## About AGENTS.md (vault instructions)

This plugin creates an `AGENTS.md` file in your **vault root**.
- It contains baseline instructions so Codex understands it’s working inside an Obsidian vault.
- Basically, everything works right out of the box, but you can **freely edit** `AGENTS.md` to add your own rules and conventions.

### Optional: Why you should edit it

Different vaults have different conventions:
- Zettelkasten vs PARA vs project-based vaults
- Frontmatter schemas
- Tagging rules
- Folder structures
- Templates

Add instructions like:
- Where new notes should be created
- How to name files
- What frontmatter fields are required
- What style/format you want for summaries

> [!TIP]
> Treat `AGENTS.md` as your “vault handbook” for AI.
