Codex app-server is the interface Codex uses to power rich clients (for example, the Codex VS Code extension). Use it when you want a deep integration inside your own product: authentication, conversation history, approvals, and streamed agent events. The app-server implementation is open source in the Codex GitHub repository (openai/codex/codex-rs/app-server). See the Open Source page for the full list of open-source Codex components.
If you are automating jobs or running Codex in CI, use the Codex SDK instead.
