I have forked this pkg and made a new package here https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/openai-codex-autoup-bin since the package gets updated often, I made a nightly update via a GitHub action https://github.com/chmouel/aur-update

thanks for patience, been busy midterms not gonna add in DeepChirp's linked ALCN bot-- given recent AUR attacks I don't feel comfortable opening myself to a supply chain attack on ALCN or some other level of the project

Bump on upgrade!

Respectfully, I'd rather wait a few days longer for an update that has been tested (or is at the very least supervised) by a real person than having instant version bumps which might break things (even if infrequently).

Of course, if @jackmhny as maintainer thinks this solution is appropriate, I won't stand in the way, but I don't see the added value.

would love to see @DeepChirp work merged in!

Thank you for your maintenance. I've uploaded the package to the Arch Linux CN community. There's a bot there that automatically detects upstream updates and updates the PKGBUILD, eliminating the need for manual maintenance. Would you mind adding me and lilac (the community bot) as co-maintainers? If there are any issues with the package, you can also submit pull requests there. Thanks!

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.

jackmhny commented on 2025-08-21 13:33 (UTC)

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)

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
