About
Auto-review ("Approve for me") is a permission mode for OpenAI's Codex coding agent. Instead of prompting the user for every command or file action, it approves routine actions automatically and asks for confirmation only when a larger concern is flagged. This reduces approval interruptions during longer agent runs.
Codex is available as an open-source CLI (Apache-2.0), in IDE extensions, a desktop app, and as the cloud-based Codex Web in ChatGPT. According to a YouTube creator (Matt Wolfe), auto-review was made free for all users signed in via ChatGPT. The scraped pages do not detail exactly how the review decisions are made or which risks trigger a prompt.
Users sign in with a ChatGPT account (Plus, Pro, Business, Edu or Enterprise plans are recommended in the README) or use an API key with additional setup. The exact release date of this mode is not given in the provided material.
