# @waggle/hive-mind-hooks-codex-desktop Silent-capture shim that wires **OpenAI Codex Desktop** lifecycle hooks into [hive-mind](https://github.com/marolinik/hive-mind) frames. Codex Desktop shares the **same `~/.codex/` config root** as the Codex CLI — there is no separate codex-desktop config directory — so this package is a **thin re-export of [`@waggle/hive-mind-hooks-codex`](../hive-mind-hooks-codex)**. Install / uninstall / verify behave **identically** and write into the same `~/.codex/hooks.json` + pointer (`~/.codex/hive-mind-install.json`). It exists as a distinct package so the dependency graph + OSS subtree-split see the package boundary, and so the launcher's `hookPackageFor('codex-desktop')` resolves to this package. ## Install ```bash npx @waggle/hive-mind-hooks-codex-desktop install # Windows / production: pin the CLI path npx @waggle/hive-mind-hooks-codex-desktop install --cli-path "C:\\path\\to\\hive-mind-cli\\dist\\index.js" ``` The installer additively merges four hook groups into `~/.codex/hooks.json` (creating the file if absent), preserving any existing hooks you have, and writes a pointer + byte-identical backup so uninstall is exact. This is the **same file** the Codex CLI shim writes — installing one is installing the other. > **One-time trust step.** Non-managed Codex hooks require a one-time `/hooks` > trust before they execute. After installing, run `/hooks` in Codex once to > trust the hive-mind hooks. ```bash npx @waggle/hive-mind-hooks-codex-desktop verify # smoke-check + surface admin lockdown npx @waggle/hive-mind-hooks-codex-desktop uninstall # byte-identical restore (or remove if we created it) ``` `verify` also surfaces the admin lockdown `allow_managed_hooks_only = true` (in `~/.codex/requirements.toml`), which suppresses user hooks so install would silently no-op. ## Capture fidelity | Lifecycle | Codex event | Status | Notes | |---|---|---|---| | SessionStart (recall + inject) | `SessionStart` | full | matcher `startup\|resume\|clear\|compact`; injects recalled frames as additional context | | UserPromptSubmit (save temporary) | `UserPromptSubmit` | full | persists the prompt as a temporary frame | | Stop (summarize + save) | `Stop` | full | reads `last_assistant_message` in the response fallback; saves an important/critical frame | | PreCompact (compact memory) | `PreCompact` | full | carries `trigger` (`manual\|auto`); runs `cleanup_frames` before truncation | **Full parity** with claude-code — no degraded or absent events. The only non-silent step is the one-time `/hooks` trust step above (an install-UX step, not a degraded event). > **Runtime-verification note.** The **Codex CLI definitely fires** these hooks > (the shared `~/.codex/hooks.json` is the CLI's own hook surface). Whether the > Codex **Desktop App** honors the same `~/.codex/hooks.json` is **doc-asserted > and still needs runtime verification on a real App install**. If you run the > desktop App, confirm capture lands in your hive-mind frames after a session. ## How it works This package re-exports the codex installer surface (`export * from '@waggle/hive-mind-hooks-codex'`); the `codex-desktop-hooks` bin delegates to the codex `install` / `uninstall` / `verify`. The compiled hook scripts live in the codex package's `dist/hooks/` (resolved by the codex installer's own module URL), so codex-desktop ships no duplicate hook bodies. Each hook is a short-lived Node subprocess. Codex pipes the event JSON to the hook's stdin; the hook shells to `hive-mind-cli` to recall or save frames, then exits 0. **Fail-open:** if `hive-mind-cli` is unreachable or the payload is malformed, the hook logs to stderr and exits 0 — Codex is never blocked.
