Linux Computer Use
August 18, 2026 ยท View on GitHub
Disabled-by-default Linux Computer Use integration. It owns the six current
ASAR descriptors and the native MCP
plugin staged only when explicitly enabled. Immutable Nix packages receive
their bundled-marketplace staging permission repair from the separate internal
nix-store-bundled-marketplace-permissions feature.
Enable it in linux-features/features.json:
{ "enabled": ["computer-use-linux"] }
make install-native builds codex-computer-use-linux and
codex-computer-use-cosmic once before staging the package. Direct
./install.sh builds may provide binaries in target/release/ or set
CODEX_COMPUTER_USE_BINARY_SOURCE and CODEX_COMPUTER_USE_COSMIC_BINARY_SOURCE.
Updater rebuilds reuse the packaged artifacts and never invoke Cargo.
Validate descriptor ownership and artifact-only staging with:
node --test linux-features/computer-use-linux/test.js
