REMOTE CODEX WORKFLOW

Run Codex on your Linux VM from WhatsApp and the web

Codex Gateway connects a browser and WhatsApp to Codex running in the Linux environment you control. Repositories and project files stay on your VM while the gateway handles conversations, tasks and approvals.

A practical remote coding workflow

Create a task in the web workspace or continue one from WhatsApp. The task center shows the latest response, history, commands, tests and file changes without exposing internal task identifiers.

  • One gateway number for each account and up to ten authorized senders.
  • Model, reasoning level and file-access permissions in one place.
  • Long-running approvals remain pending and are reminded instead of becoming misleading timeouts.
  • Images, documents, archives, audio, video and locations can be sent with a task.

Connect a VM without sharing SSH credentials

The connector is installed inside the VM and opens an encrypted outbound connection over port 443. The cloud panel does not need an SSH password, private key or inbound firewall port.

The dashboard supplies the account-scoped one-time token during setup.

Use voice prompts without installing speech tools

Record a WhatsApp voice note beginning with “Codex”, for example “Codex, review the failing tests”. The central gateway transcribes it privately and sends the remaining sentence to the selected task. Your VM needs no Whisper package or speech-to-text API key; voice notes without the wake word are ignored.

  • Say Codex first
  • No voice setup on the VM
  • The transcription becomes a normal task prompt

Keep the machine and the permissions visible

Each connector belongs to one account, one VM and one project. You can revoke a VM, rotate its token, and choose read-only, workspace-write or full-access execution when the account explicitly authorizes it.
