Installs the OpenAI Codex CLI from the official packaged GitHub release assets and persists ~/.codex in shared state across devcontainers.

The feature installs:

• codex
• a bundled rg binary that matches the upstream Codex package layout

"features": {
    "ghcr.io/sliekens/devcontainer-features/codex:1": {}
}

Pin a specific Codex version when you need deterministic builds:

"features": {
    "ghcr.io/sliekens/devcontainer-features/codex:1": {
        "version": "0.114.0"
    }
}

This directory is bind-mounted from the host so that auth and configuration are preserved across container rebuilds.

Because Docker cannot bind-mount a directory that does not yet exist, consuming devcontainer.json files should add an initializeCommand to pre-create this directory on the host before the container starts:

{
    "image": "mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/base:ubuntu",
    "features": {
        "ghcr.io/sliekens/devcontainer-features/codex:1": {}
    },
    "initializeCommand": "mkdir -p \"$HOME/.codex\""
}

The installed tool is subject to its own license: Codex CLI license.

• Add trailing slash to bind mount source path to mark it explicitly as a directory.

• Use bind mount from host ~/.codex instead of a Docker volume for persistent state.

• Initial release.
