OpenWarp – Tabby Codex Inline Agent

Warp-style inline AI agent bundled into Tabby. Hotkey opens a bottom command bar inside the active terminal pane, streams Codex output, and lets you paste without installing Codex on every SSH host.

Features

• Inline command bar (no sidebars) with streaming Codex output.
• Works in local and SSH sessions; context comes from Tabby buffer, not the remote host.
• BYOK: API key, base URL, model, binary path, context lines, timeout.
• Bundlable: add Codex binary to Tabby extraResources or point to an existing codex in PATH.

Install from Tabby (preferred)

• In Tabby: Settings → Plugins → Available, search tabby-openwarp, click Install, restart.

Quick start (plugin dev / manual side-load)

npm install
npm run build
# then symlink or copy dist folder into Tabby plugins directory
# or install the published package directly into the Tabby plugins dir:
# macOS:  cd "$HOME/Library/Application Support/tabby/plugins"
# Linux:  cd "$HOME/.config/tabby/plugins"
# bun install tabby-openwarp --ignore-scripts --no-progress --no-save

Configuration (Tabby Settings → Codex Inline Agent)

• API key: your Codex/OpenAI/Tabby key (kept locally)
• Base URL: OpenAI-compatible endpoint (e.g., https://api.openai.com/v1 or your Tabby server)
• Model: e.g., gpt-4.1
• Binary path: path to codex binary shipped with Tabby or installed locally
• Context lines: how many recent terminal lines to send
• Timeout (ms): Codex call timeout
• Hotkey: default Ctrl-Shift-K (Cmd-Shift-K on macOS)

Packaging Codex with Tabby

Add platform binaries into Electron extraResources and set binaryPath default accordingly. Example electron-builder snippet:

"extraResources": [
  { "from": "resources/codex/mac-arm64/codex", "to": "codex/darwin-arm64/codex", "filter": ["**/*"] },
  { "from": "resources/codex/mac-x64/codex", "to": "codex/darwin-x64/codex", "filter": ["**/*"] },
  { "from": "resources/codex/linux-x64/codex", "to": "codex/linux-x64/codex", "filter": ["**/*"] }
]

Then set binaryPath default to process.resourcesPath + '/codex/<platform>/codex' during build or via config.

Known gaps

• Windows not wired yet.
• Minimal styling; adjust src/overlay.ts for your theme.
• Inline decorator relies on Tabby frontend.output$; verify against your Tabby version.

Command palette

• Ask Codex (inline) — opens bar; hotkey Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + K.

Debugging

• Tabby loads plugins that declare "tabby": { "module": "./dist/index.js" } in package.json. Verify this field if the command/hotkey doesn’t appear.
• Check Tabby developer tools (Help → Toggle Developer Tools → Console) for errors mentioning tabby-openwarp.
• Local plugin folder on macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/tabby/plugins/node_modules/tabby-openwarp.
