Vibex is a Codex-style agent that runs inside a secure sandbox and pushes working code to GitHub. You give it a task like "add Stripe checkout" — it installs packages, updates files, runs tests, and opens a real pull request.

It's powered by VibeKit, the SDK for running coding agents in real containers with streaming, GitHub automation, and async jobs built in.

Features

• 🤖 Built for OpenAI Codex-style models (e.g. GPT-4.1)
• 🔒 Secure runtime with E2B sandboxes
• 🧵 Streams output as it runs
• 🐙 Automates GitHub clones, branches, and PRs
• ⚙️ Runs background jobs using Inngest

Use it as a starting point for your own Codex — fully open source and production-ready.

Vibex doesn't simulate a pull request. It runs in a real container, installs dependencies, executes shell commands, and commits code. Just like Codex.

Quick Start

Get started with Vibex in minutes:

git clone https://github.com/superagent-ai/vibekit
cd vibekit/templates/codex-clone
npm install
cp .env.example .env.local
# Add your API keys to .env.local
npm run dev

Required Environment Variables:

• OPENAI_API_KEY: Your OpenAI API key
• E2B_API_KEY: E2B sandboxes API key
• GITHUB_TOKEN: GitHub personal access token
• INNGEST_EVENT_KEY: Inngest event key for background jobs

How It Works

1. Task Input: User describes what they want built in plain language
2. Planning: AI agent creates a structured plan for the implementation
3. Execution: Code runs in secure E2B sandbox with full environment access
4. Integration: Automatically clones repo, creates branch, commits changes
5. Delivery: Opens real GitHub pull request with working code

Vibex handles the complete workflow from idea to deployed code, just like OpenAI Codex.
