+A terminal UI (TUI) wrapper for coding agents. Built with TypeScript, Bun, and Ink (React for terminal rendering). Codexa routes to OpenAI Codex, Anthropic Claude Code, Google Gemini, and local models — giving each a richer interactive shell with scrollable history, workspace locking, layered TOML config, themes, and in-app slash commands.
 
-## Prerequisites
+## Quick Start
 
-- **Bun** — required to run locally from source
-- **codex CLI** — the underlying agent that Codexa wraps. Must be available on `PATH` or pointed to via `CODEX_EXECUTABLE`
+Fastest path for normal users (OpenAI Codex route):
 
-## Installation
+1. **Install Codex CLI** — see [Installing OpenAI Codex CLI](#installing-openai-codex-cli)
+2. **Authenticate Codex** — run `codex` once and sign in with ChatGPT when prompted
+3. **Install Codexa** — `npm install -g @golba98/codexa@latest`
+4. **Run Codexa** — `cd <your-workspace> && codexa`
 
-**Local source install:**
+Verify both are ready:
+
+```
+codex --version
+codexa --version
+```
+
+## Requirements
+
+| For... | Requires |
+|--------|----------|
+| Global install (`codexa` command) | Node.js + npm |
+| Local dev / running from source | [Bun](https://bun.sh) |
+| Codex/OpenAI route | Codex CLI installed and authenticated |
+| Claude/Anthropic route | Claude Code CLI installed and authenticated |
+| Gemini/Google route | Gemini CLI installed and authenticated |
+| Local route | LM Studio (or any OpenAI-compatible server) |
+
+## Installing Codexa
+
+```
+npm install -g @golba98/codexa@latest
+```
+
+Verify:
+
+```
+codexa --version
+```
+
+## Updating Codexa
+
+```
+npm install -g @golba98/codexa@latest
+```
+
+After updating, confirm the version:
+
+```
+codexa --version
+```
+
+If it still shows the old version, check which binary is active:
+
+```bash
+# Linux/macOS
+which -a codexa
+
+# Windows PowerShell
+Get-Command codexa
+```
+
+If the wrong binary is active, see [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting).
+
+## Tool Overview
+
+Codexa and provider CLIs are independent tools with separate version numbers. Updating one does not update the others.
+
+| Tool | Purpose | Version check | Update |
+|------|---------|---------------|--------|
+| Codex CLI | OpenAI coding agent | `codex --version` | `codex update` or reinstall |
+| Claude Code CLI | Anthropic coding agent | `claude --version` | `npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code@latest` |
+| Codexa | TUI wrapper / workspace experience | `codexa --version` | `npm install -g @golba98/codexa@latest` |
+
+## Provider CLI Setup
+
+Codexa can route to multiple providers. Each provider CLI must be installed and authenticated separately — Codexa does not manage provider authentication.
+
+### Installing OpenAI Codex CLI
+
+**Standalone (macOS/Linux):**
+
+```bash
+curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | sh
+```
+
+**Standalone (Windows):**
 
 ```powershell
-bun install
-npm link
+powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex"
+```
+
+**npm (all platforms):**
+
+```
+npm install -g @openai/codex
+```
+
+**Homebrew (macOS):**
+
+```
+brew install --cask codex
+```
+
+After installing, run `codex` once and sign in with ChatGPT when prompted, or configure an API key for API key auth.
+
+> Codexa does not manage Codex authentication. The Codex route requires an already-authenticated Codex CLI.
+
+**Updating Codex CLI:**
+
+| Install method | Update command |
+|----------------|----------------|
+| Standalone macOS/Linux | Rerun the `curl` installer |
+| Standalone Windows | Rerun the PowerShell installer |
+| npm | `npm install -g @openai/codex@latest` |
+| Homebrew | `brew upgrade --cask codex` |
+
+Preferred self-update (when supported): `codex update`
+
+### Installing Claude Code CLI
+
+```
+npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code
+```
+
+Verify:
+
+```
+claude --version
+```
+
+Authenticate — run `claude` once and sign in when prompted:
+
+```
+claude
 ```
 
-Then run `codexa` from the workspace directory you want to use.
+> Codexa does not manage Claude authentication. The Claude route requires an already-authenticated Claude Code CLI. Codexa routes to the `claude` executable — make sure it is on your PATH and working before switching to the Anthropic provider in Codexa.
 
-## Usage
+**Updating Claude Code CLI:**
+
+```
+npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code@latest
+```
+
+### Installing Gemini CLI
+
+Codexa routes to the `gemini` executable. Install the Gemini CLI separately and authenticate per Google's instructions. Once installed and authenticated, Codexa can use it without additional configuration.
+
+If the Gemini executable is not on PATH or has a non-standard name, specify it explicitly:
+
+```bash
+# Environment variable
+export GEMINI_EXECUTABLE="/path/to/gemini"
+
+# or in .codex/config.toml
+gemini_command_path = "/path/to/gemini"
+```
+
+### Using Local Models (LM Studio)
+
+Codexa can route the Local provider through any OpenAI-compatible server.
+
+1. Start LM Studio and load a model.
+2. Enable the LM Studio local server.
+3. Confirm the endpoint is `http://localhost:1234/v1`.
+4. Open Codexa's provider picker with `/providers`.
+5. Select `Local`, refresh models if needed, then choose `Use in Codexa`.
+
+Environment variable configuration:
+
+```bash
+export CODEXA_LOCAL_BASE_URL="http://localhost:1234/v1"
+export CODEXA_LOCAL_API_KEY="lm-studio"
+export CODEXA_LOCAL_MODEL="google/gemma-4-26b-a4b"
+```
+
+Workspace provider config in `.codexa/providers.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "providers": {
+    "local": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "type": "openai-compatible",

+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+`OPENAI_BASE_URL`, `OPENAI_API_BASE`, and `OPENAI_API_KEY` are also accepted for the Local provider only. They do not redirect other routes.

-
-Context length is detected separately from model discovery. Codexa first looks for context metadata returned by the provider, then CLI metadata, then an explicit workspace config override, then exact known registry entries. If no trusted source provides a limit, Codexa shows `Context: Unknown` and does not calculate a context percentage.

-## Development
+## Published vs Local Codexa
 
-```powershell
-bun install          # Install dependencies
-bun run dev          # Start with file watching
+**Published Codexa** (`npm install -g @golba98/codexa@latest`):
+- Installed globally; available as `codexa` anywhere
+- Stable release; updates on demand via npm
+- Use this for daily work
+
+**Local Codexa** (`bun run dev` from the repo):
+- Runs directly from the working tree
+- Reflects uncommitted changes immediately (with `--watch`)
+- Header shows `Codexa vX.Y.Z-dev local` so you can tell it apart from the published build
+- Use this for testing new features or contributing
+
+> **Gotcha:** When testing local changes, confirm you are running the local build and not the global one. Use `Get-Command codexa` (Windows) or `which -a codexa` (Linux/macOS) to check.
+
+## Local Development
+
+**Requirement:** [Bun](https://bun.sh) installed.
+
+```bash
+# Linux/macOS
+cd /path/to/13-Custom-CLI-Normal
+bun install
+
+bun run typecheck    # Type-check without emit
+bun test             # Run all tests
+bun run dev          # Start with file watching (development)
 bun run start        # Single run without watching
-bun run typecheck    # TypeScript type-check (no emit)
+bun run build        # Generate build info + typecheck
+```
+
+```powershell
+# Windows PowerShell
+cd C:\Development\1-JavaScript\13-Custom-CLI-Normal
+bun install
+
+bun run typecheck
+bun test
+bun run dev
+bun run start
+bun run build
+```
+
+Dev launches lock the workspace to the directory Bun was invoked from.
+
+**Option A — Install a separate `codexa-dev` command (recommended for contributors):**
+
+```
+bun run install:dev-bin
+```
+
+This installs two shims into your npm global bin directory — `codexa-dev` and the short alias `cxd` — both pointing at the local repo. The published `codexa` command is not modified — they coexist.
+
+```bash
+cd <your-workspace>
+codexa-dev    # or: cxd
 ```
 
-Dev launches lock the workspace to the directory Bun was invoked from. For the normal end-user flow, use `npm link` and run `codexa` from the intended workspace instead.
+To confirm exactly which file is executing: `CODEXA_DEBUG_LAUNCH=1 codexa-dev`
+
+Uninstall by removing the `codexa-dev` and `cxd` shims from your npm global bin directory (`npm prefix -g`).
+
+**Option B — Redirect the global `codexa` command to the repo:**
+
+```
+npm link
+```
+
+This replaces the global `codexa` with a symlink to the repo. Undo with `npm unlink -g @golba98/codexa`.
+
+**Refresh the global `codexa` from this checkout** (without publishing to npm):
+
+```
+npm install -g .
+```
 
 ## Testing
 
-```powershell
+```bash
 bun test                              # Run all tests
 bun test src/ui/layout.test.ts        # Run a specific file or pattern
 ```
 
 Tests are colocated with source files (`*.test.ts` / `*.test.tsx`).
 
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### `npm install -g @golba98/codexa@latest` installs an older version
+
+Run these diagnostics to understand the npm registry state:
+
+```bash
+npm view @golba98/codexa version
+npm view @golba98/codexa versions --json
+npm view @golba98/codexa dist-tags --json
+```
+
+If `dist-tags.latest` points to an older version, v1.0.3 may not have been published yet, or the `latest` tag may need to be updated. Until v1.0.3 is published to npm, `@latest` will resolve to the highest published version.
+
+### `codexa --version` still shows an old version after updating
+
+Check which binary is active and what version is installed globally:
+
+```bash
+# Linux/macOS
+which -a codexa
+
+# Windows PowerShell
+Get-Command codexa
+
+# Check globally installed version
+npm list -g --depth=0 @golba98/codexa
+```
+
+Multiple `codexa` entries from `which -a` means more than one binary exists on PATH. The first one wins. If a local dev build (`codexa-dev` or `npm link`) is ahead of the published binary on PATH, it will shadow the global install.
+
+### Multiple `codexa` binaries on PATH
+
+Run `which -a codexa` to see all of them. The first one in the list is what runs. Reorder PATH, or uninstall/unlink the unwanted binary:
+
+```bash
+npm unlink -g @golba98/codexa    # remove npm link
+npm uninstall -g @golba98/codexa # remove global install
+```
+
+Then reinstall: `npm install -g @golba98/codexa@latest`
+
+### Installed from a local tarball
+
+If you installed from a `.tgz` file rather than from the npm registry, `npm list -g` shows the version from that tarball. To switch to the registry version:
+
+```bash
+npm uninstall -g @golba98/codexa
+npm install -g @golba98/codexa@latest
+```
+
+### npm global prefix not on PATH
+
+Find where npm installs global binaries:
+
+```bash
+npm prefix -g       # e.g. /home/you/.local/share/npm
+```
+
+The `bin/` subdirectory of that path must be on your PATH. Add it to `~/.bashrc` or `~/.zshrc`:
+
+```bash
+export PATH="$(npm prefix -g)/bin:$PATH"
+```
+
+Then restart your terminal.
+
+### Local linked build running instead of published package
+
+If you ran `npm link` from the repo, `codexa` points at the local source. The header shows `Codexa vX.Y.Z-dev local` in that case. To go back to the published version:
+
+```bash
+npm unlink -g @golba98/codexa
+npm install -g @golba98/codexa@latest
+```
+
+### Update notice does not appear
+
+Codexa checks for updates on startup and caches the result for 6 hours (stored in `~/.codexa-update-check.json`). The update notice only appears when the npm registry `latest` version is newer than the running version.
+
+If you expect a notice but don't see one:
+
+1. Check the current registry state: `npm view @golba98/codexa dist-tags --json`
+2. Clear the cache to force a fresh check: delete `~/.codexa-update-check.json`, then restart Codexa
+3. Force an explicit check in-app: `/update check`
+4. Update checks are disabled for local dev builds (`codexa-dev` / `cxd`)
+
+| Symptom | Fix |
+|---------|-----|
+| `codex: command not found` | Install Codex CLI and restart the terminal |
+| `claude: command not found` | Install Claude Code CLI: `npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code` |
+| `codexa: command not found` | Run `npm install -g @golba98/codexa@latest`, or use `bun run dev` from the repo |
+| Codexa still shows old version after update | Check `which -a codexa` — a different binary may be earlier on PATH |
+| Codex updated but Codexa did not | Independent tools — update Codexa: `npm install -g @golba98/codexa@latest` |
+| Codexa updated but Codex did not | Independent tools — update Codex: `codex update` |
+| Local changes not reflected when running `codexa` | You may be running the global binary — use `bun run dev` or `codexa-dev` from the repo |
+
+## Versions
+
+See [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md) for the full release history.
+
+**Current release: v1.0.3**
+
+v1.0.3 is a package correctness and release-process fix:
+- The installed `npm` package now shows the full Codexa UI (logo, header, workspace, provider)
+- `APP_VERSION` in the package is guaranteed to match `package.json` at publish time
+- Test files are excluded from the published tarball
+- Semantic color-token system (`logoPrimary`, `text`, `textMuted`, etc.)
+- Responsive ASCII logo with three fallback sizes
+
+> Once v1.0.3 is published to npm, users on v1.0.2 will see the in-app update notice within 6 hours (cache TTL). To trigger it immediately: delete `~/.codexa-update-check.json` and restart Codexa.
