Codex is included across eligible ChatGPT plans with plan-dependent limits; flexible usage is credit- and token-based, so there is no single standalone monthly price.

Checked 2026-07-12

Privacy and code-data boundary

Code and task context are processed according to the selected ChatGPT, Business, Enterprise, API, or cloud-task terms; organizational controls should be reviewed before sensitive repository use.

Training/data-use check: Treatment varies by product and plan; verify workspace data controls and current terms.

Evidence scope
Bounded setup or capability check
Cleanup
Per-check temporary home and work directory removed. Shared cohort package cache removed.
Actions exercised
  • Created a disposable home, work directory, and isolated package cache with credential-like environment variables excluded.
  • Executed bounded check: Load the installed Codex CLI command surface.
  • Captured the complete sanitized stdout, stderr, exit status, and 0.10-second wall time.
Observed results
  • Command exited 0 after 0.10 seconds.
  • The command produced a successful local process exit; complete output is retained.
Observed strengths
  • The installed Codex CLI help exposed interactive prompting, non-interactive exec and review commands, and explicit login and logout controls.
Friction
  • No blocking friction was observed during this bounded local check.
Limitations
  • Help output proves local CLI startup only; it does not exercise an authenticated coding task.
  • This bounded cohort check is not a production benchmark or a claim of real user-workflow adoption.

Pricing assessment: No paid plan or metered provider usage was exercised; package or licensing, hosting, and provider costs remain workflow-dependent.

Privacy assessment: No repository content, user data, or provider prompt was transmitted; broader product data handling was not assessed by this bounded run.

Raw history JSON →

History begins 2026-07-14; trends appear after a second dated snapshot. Stars, version, release, pricing, integration, risk, maintenance, verdict, score, and momentum fields remain explicit even when a source has not reported them. Repository momentum is a normalized 0–10 RepoRadar signal; GitHub stars appear only where the popularity monitor retained exact timestamped observations.
