Arch Linux User Repository

Thanks, I hope keywords will help. I am totally agree with you that self referencing is bad. It was like quick example why this link can be rated less relevant when searching.

lextruel: i added the keywords, but respectfully i think the description changes wouldnt fit the guidelines [1] which say to avoid self referencing the package (codex cli) in the description; and though not explicitly mentioned in those guidelines, it can be inferred bad practice to reference arch linux itself in an aur description, as these descs are mainly for searching while already on aur.archlinux.org, or in an aur helper, not SEO

(if every aur desc started with "Arch Linux package for XYZ" it would get annoying fast)

[1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_package_guidelines

This package has problem with discovery from search engines.

Can I propose to:

1. Update description to Arch Linux package for OpenAI’s Codex CLI. Google demotes this page due content not being unique. This description is copy from bigger sites like Github.

2. Add openai, codex, CLI, AI assistant, chatgpt to keywords to make it different from codex-bin package being already present in AUR for longer. And include more mentions of openai.

note: current bug with my PKGBUILD with aarch64, will fix soon

Update: 0.21 fixes the issue. Thanks @jackmhny for maintaining the AUR.

Is anyone else getting no response from Codex after the patch? If I execute prompts that result on console commands (e.g. ls) I can see the bot Ran Command output, but no other text output. It does not show the results of the ls command, nor any other flavor text ("it looks like you're writing a letter") type stuff.

fixed. thanks @gwuensch for the fix

@carmilso You have outdated tarballs in the source directory that are causing this, you'll have to download the latest version.

@jackmhny Could you configure the source filenames to include the version name, so this doesn't happen?
