Guidance for AI agents (and humans) working on or reviewing this repository.
opencodex (ocx) is a universal provider proxy for OpenAI Codex and Claude Code:
one local proxy that lets Codex CLI/App/SDK and Claude Code use many LLM
providers (Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Ollama, and more). The runtime is
Bun-native TypeScript with no separate server compile step.
src/— proxy runtime: routing, provider adapters, config, management API.tests/— flat Bun tests (tests/*.test.ts); shared fixtures intests/helpers/, broader scenarios intests/e2e-style/.gui/— React + Vite dashboard; packaged output is served fromgui/dist.docs-site/— public docs (Astro + Starlight), deployed to GitHub Pages.structure/— maintainer invariants and architecture notes; read before changing shared subsystems.scripts/— release and maintenance tooling;scripts/release.tsis the release authority.devlog/— planning and investigation artifacts (mostly gitignored).

non-trivial change. CI runs these on Linux, Windows, and macOS.
dev— integration branch and the default target. A pull request goes here unless it belongs to a scoped line below.dev2-go— parallel integration line for the Go native port:go/,bin/native-runtime.mjs,src/lib/runtime-entry.ts, and the Go release-asset tooling. Open for pull requests: the target-branch check acceptsdevanddev2-goas integration targets. Keep it to scoped Go native-port work — the check cannot tell an intentional target from a mistaken one, so that boundary is a review decision. It converges back through maintainer-controlled merges, and promotion tomainstill happens only fromdev.main— release branch. It only moves by maintainer-controlled promotion fromdev(releases, docs deploys). Do not open feature PRs againstmain.preview— prerelease train (x.y.z-preview.*versions).
The Claude Desktop integration formerly carried on the claudedesktop branch is
now fully merged into dev, and that branch has been retired. Desktop work
continues as normal pull requests against dev.
Porting and rebase pull requests are welcome. Forward-porting a fix from one integration line to another, or rebasing a stale branch onto the current head, is ordinary maintenance rather than noise — open it as a normal pull request and name the source commits in the description.
MAINTAINERS.md is authoritative for review and merge
policy (approvals, CI requirements, security review, promotion). This file
summarizes; it never overrides it.
These rules apply to all code reviews on this repository, including automated reviewers (Codex, CodeRabbit).
- Language: always review in English, regardless of the PR or issue language. Be detailed and specific: name the file and line, describe the concrete failure mode, and suggest a fix. Avoid vague or purely stylistic commentary.
- Branch targeting: flag any pull request that targets neither
devnordev2-go(releases and maintainer promotions are the only exceptions).dev2-gois accepted by the automation but scoped by review: if a pull request targets it without touchinggo/, the native runtime entrypoint, or the Go release-asset tooling, ask the author to retarget todev. The automation cannot make that judgement, which is why it is yours. - Security boundary (highest priority): changes touching authentication,
credential/token handling, OAuth flows, GitHub Actions workflows, release
automation (
scripts/release.ts,.github/workflows/release.yml), or dependency installation require explicit security review perMAINTAINERS.md. Treat token logging/serialization, secret exposure, workflow permission escalation, and mutable third-party action refs as release blockers. - Runtime constraints: the proxy is Bun-native. Flag Node-only APIs,
assumptions about a compile step, or code paths that break
bun run typecheck/bun run test. - Tests: behavior changes in
src/need a focused regression test near the existing tests for that subsystem. Shared routing, adapter, config, or server changes need the full suite green. - Docs sync: user-facing behavior changes should update
docs-site/(and keep translated locales from contradicting the English source). - Privacy:
bun run privacy:scanmust stay green; never introduce logging of request bodies, API keys, or account identifiers.
