Codex CLI Integration

Never Lose a Codex CLI Prompt Again

Prompt Cellar wraps your codex command with a thin capture layer. Every prompt saved, encrypted, searchable. Your workflow stays the same.

Codex prompts disappear fast

Codex CLI runs your prompt, does the work, and moves on. The prompt itself lives in your shell history until your terminal scrollback pushes it out. If you close the tab, it might be gone entirely.

Shell history is not a prompt management system. It doesn't know which project you were in, which branch you were on, or what the prompt actually accomplished.

Prompt Cellar captures every Codex prompt with full context. Two weeks from now, you search "API migration" and find the exact prompt that worked.

How the shell wrapper works

Codex CLI doesn't have a native hook system, so Prompt Cellar takes a different approach. When you run pc setup, it adds a shell function to your .bashrc or .zshrc that wraps the codex command.

The wrapper intercepts the prompt text before passing it through to the real codex binary. Codex runs exactly as before. The only difference is that your prompt gets captured in the background.

Here's what gets recorded with each prompt:

The full prompt text you passed to Codex
Your current working directory
Timestamp
Git repo, branch, and commit hash (if in a git directory)

Everything is encrypted with AES-256-GCM before leaving your machine. The wrapper adds negligible latency since capture happens asynchronously.

Better than shell history

Searchable by content, not position

Shell history is ordered by time. Prompt Cellar lets you search by keyword, project, or date range. Find "database schema migration" across all your projects at once.

Organized by project

Shell history mixes everything together. Prompt Cellar knows which repo and branch each prompt belongs to. Filter to just one project and see its full prompt timeline.

Encrypted and persistent

Shell history gets truncated, overwritten, or lost when you switch machines. Prompt Cellar stores your prompts encrypted in the cloud, accessible from any device.
