Terms of Use

Unofficial project

CodexSkin is independent and unofficial. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by OpenAI. Codex and OpenAI trademarks belong to their owners.

Use at your own discretion

CodexSkin is provided as a local theme runner and curated skin library. It is distributed without warranties of uninterrupted operation, compatibility with every Codex Desktop version, or fitness for a particular purpose. Codex Desktop updates may change renderer behavior and require CodexSkin updates.

Always keep the official Codex Desktop installer and settings as your source of truth. Use Restore when you no longer need a themed session.

Acceptable use

Do not use CodexSkin to impersonate official OpenAI products, bypass application security boundaries, redistribute third-party artwork without rights, or mislead users about affiliation or endorsement. Public theme assets should avoid logos, watermarks, celebrity likenesses, franchise characters, and copyrighted screenshots unless you have permission.

Safety boundary

The runner uses Chromium DevTools Protocol on loopback to style a local Codex Desktop session. CDP is powerful and unauthenticated for trusted local users/processes, so only run trusted local software while a themed session is active. Read the Safety model before broad use.
