Can you promote in r/codex?
This is the information and discussion subreddit for OpenAI Codex tools - Codex CLI, Codex IDE Extension and Codex in the Cloud that are included in ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, Edu, and Enterprise plans. The subreddit's focus recently changed and the prior subreddit content has been respectfully archived. This subreddit is not an official OpenAI subreddit.
The short answer
Only reply publicly when your contribution directly helps with a Codex-related question (answer, reproduction steps, bugfix, or usage tip); keep any product/company mention minimal and clearly relevant, use proper flair, and avoid promotional language.
What works here
- Answer technical questions about Codex features or bugs
- Provide reproducible steps, troubleshooting, or comparisons with prior homework shown
- Participate respectfully and follow flair and megathread rules
What gets posts removed
- Posting promotional pitches, solicitations, or marketing-heavy messages
- Low-effort or off-topic posts (non-Codex content)
- Using bots or ignoring flair/megathread guidance
Where this comes from
Be relevant
Subreddit requires posts be directly related to Codex suite; this means vendor messages must tie tightly to Codex usage or issues to be acceptable.
Use the right flair
Posts may be removed if they don't use the correct flair, so vendors should ensure correct tagging when replying or posting.
No low effort rants
Moderation favors well-supported, helpful content over drive-by complaints or promotional rants.
Use the Megathreads to report problems
Problem reports should go in megathreads or include reproducible evidence; vendor troubleshooting should follow this format.
Bot policy
Subreddit disallows bot activity; automated vendor replies could be flagged.
