OpenAI open-sources Codex Security CLI for repo scanning, findings tracking, and CI/CD checks

OpenAI announced on Tuesday it has open-sourced the Codex Security CLI for repository scanning, findings tracking and CI/CD security checks. The company posted on X that the tool was quietly released and discovered by Hacker News users before OpenAI shared it publicly. The command-line interface allows users to scan repositories, track findings across runs, verify fixes and add security checks to continuous integration and deployment pipelines. OpenAI described the release as early and said it is listening to feedback while continuing to improve the tool. The company did not disclose additional technical details or a roadmap for future updates.
