How to run tests using remote executor.
Babysit a GitHub pull request after creation by continuously polling review comments, CI checks/workflow runs, and mergeability state until the PR is merged/closed or user help is required. Diagnose failures, retry likely flaky failures up to 3 times, auto-fix/push branch-related issues when appropriate, and keep watching open PRs so fresh review feedback is surfaced promptly. Use when the user asks Codex to monitor a PR, watch CI, handle review comments, or keep an eye on failures and feedback on an open PR.
Pushing GitHub Actions changes, resolving push rejection, requesting upload exceptions.
Update the title and body of one or more pull requests.
Use when the user asks how to build with OpenAI products or APIs, asks about Codex itself or choosing Codex surfaces, needs up-to-date official documentation with citations, help choosing the latest model for a use case, or model upgrade and prompt-upgrade guidance; use OpenAI docs MCP tools for non-Codex docs questions, use the Codex manual helper first for broad Codex self-knowledge, and restrict fallback browsing to official OpenAI domains.
Create and scaffold plugin directories for Codex with a required `.codex-plugin/plugin.json`, optional plugin folders/files, valid manifest defaults, and personal-marketplace entries by default. Use when Codex needs to create a new personal plugin, add optional plugin structure, generate or update marketplace entries for plugin ordering and availability metadata, or update an existing local plugin during development with the CLI-driven cachebuster and reinstall flow.
Update Codex's pinned `v8` / `rusty_v8` versions, validate the release-candidate path, and investigate failed V8 canary or artifact builds. Use when asked to bump V8, update `rusty_v8` artifacts, prepare or validate a V8 release candidate, check `v8-canary`, or diagnose why a V8 version update no longer builds.

Some codex integration tests support a running against a remote executor. This means that when CODEX_TEST_REMOTE_ENV environment variable is set they will attempt to start an executor process in a docker container CODEX_TEST_REMOTE_ENV points to and use it in tests.
Docker container is built and initialized via ./scripts/test-remote-env.sh
Currently running remote tests is only supported on Linux, so you need to use a devbox to run them
You can list devboxes via applied_devbox ls, pick the one with codex in the name.
Connect to devbox via ssh <devbox_name>.
Reuse the same checkout of codex in ~/code/codex. Reset files if needed. Multiple checkouts take longer to build and take up more space.
Check whether the SHA and modified files are in sync between remote and local.
