Codex generates PRs. Bitloops makes sure they respect your architecture.
Every Codex task starts from scratch — re-explaining your project structure, your patterns, your architectural constraints. Bitloops automates context engineering for Codex so every task starts with full architectural awareness, not a blank slate.
curl -sSL https://bitloops.com/install.sh | bashWhat is OpenAI Codex?
Codex is OpenAI's cloud-based software engineering agent, designed to handle coding tasks autonomously in a secure sandboxed environment. Built on top of OpenAI's latest models, Codex reads your entire repository, reasons about code changes, runs tests, and produces complete pull requests — all from a natural-language task description. It runs in the cloud rather than locally, making it well suited for parallelising multiple tasks simultaneously. Developers use AGENTS.md files and task-level context to guide Codex, but keeping that context current across tasks is the challenge Bitloops solves.
Cloud-native sandboxed execution
Runs in OpenAI's secure cloud sandbox — handles code generation, test execution, and iteration without consuming local resources or requiring environment setup.
Parallel task execution
Spin up multiple coding tasks simultaneously — ideal for tackling several features, bug fixes, or refactors across your repository at once.
Autonomous pull request creation
Generates complete pull requests with code changes, test coverage, and descriptive commit messages — ready for human review, not just code snippets.
Full repository reasoning
Reads your entire codebase to understand patterns, module boundaries, dependencies, and conventions before making any changes.
You're already doing this. Just manually.
Getting good output from Codex means front-loading every task with project context — your architecture, your conventions, what's already been decided. Developers maintain AGENTS.md for cross-agent context and sometimes a codex.md too. Both require constant upkeep, and neither captures the reasoning behind why your codebase is structured the way it is.
What you're maintaining today
The problems with this approach
AGENTS.mdA shared context file that Codex, Claude Code, and other AI agents read — the closest thing to a cross-agent source of truth for your project
Re-explaining on every task
Without persistent context, you pad every Codex task with background your team already knows. That's wasted tokens, wasted time, and inconsistent results.
codex.mdA Codex-specific context file some teams maintain — less standardised than AGENTS.md but used to give Codex additional project-level guidance
Rules without reasoning
Your context files say what patterns to follow, not why they were chosen — so Codex can't make good judgement calls when a task is ambiguous or novel.
@filename in task promptsTyping @ in the Codex prompt triggers fuzzy file search — developers manually pick the relevant files to include as context for each task they submit
PRs disconnected from reasoning
The task description and the resulting pull request are disconnected. There's no record of what architectural context informed the generated code.

Why Codex users need Bitloops
Codex runs in the cloud with a snapshot of your repo, but it doesn't know why your codebase is shaped the way it is — the architectural decisions, the trade-offs, the constraints your team has agreed on. Bitloops bridges that gap with a persistent context engineering layer that makes every Codex task architecturally intelligent.
Replaces your AGENTS.md and codex.md
Stop front-loading every task with manually written context. Bitloops builds and keeps your project's architectural context current automatically — so Codex starts every task already informed.
Architecture-aware code generation
Bitloops feeds your project's software architecture patterns, design decisions, and constraints into Codex, so generated PRs align with your existing design — not just your current code.
PR-level decision traceability
Link every Codex-generated pull request back to the reasoning and context that produced it. Reviewers see the full decision chain, not just the diff.
Fewer tokens, better task output
Rather than describing your project from scratch in every task prompt, Bitloops provides the right context automatically — saving tokens and getting better results.

Install the Bitloops CLI
One command to install Bitloops on macOS, Linux, or Windows. Works with Homebrew, curl, and Cargo.
curl -sSL https://bitloops.com/install.sh | bashInitialize your repository
Run bitloops init in your project to set up the context engineering layer. Bitloops detects your project structure and AI tools automatically.
bitloops initUse Codex as usual
Bitloops runs locally in the background — capturing reasoning, linking decisions to git commits, and building your project's semantic context graph. Your Codex workflow stays unchanged.
Everything you get with Bitloops + Codex
Automatic decision capture
Every Codex task and its resulting code changes are recorded and linked — building a queryable history of AI-driven development decisions across your project.
Context injection for every task
Bitloops feeds the right architectural context into every Codex task automatically — no more manually padding prompts with project background.
Semantic codebase model
Builds a structured graph of your codebase — modules, APIs, architectural boundaries — that enriches Codex's understanding beyond what a file tree alone provides.
PR-level AI attribution
Every pull request Codex generates is linked to its source task and reasoning. Reviewers get the full context, making code review faster and more informed.
Architectural constraint enforcement
Define your project's architectural rules and naming conventions once. Bitloops enforces them across all Codex-generated code, keeping your architecture consistent at scale.
Privacy-first and open source
Bitloops is fully open source and runs locally. Your code, conversations, and architectural context never leave your machine — no third-party data sharing.
