Command reference · Codex CLI

/status

Shows the current status of the running Codex session.

/status gives an overview of the running interactive session. It's part of the official list of Codex CLI slash commands used to check the state of the session instead of blindly changing settings like model or approval mode.

✅ WHEN TO USE IT?

Check which mode you're in before an important action

/status — take a quick look before Codex is about to make changes to the repository

Re-orient yourself after a longer break

/status — get an overview when resuming work after an interruption

⛔ WHEN NOT TO?

You want to actively change something, not just check

/status only displays state, it doesn't change anything.

Better: Use the appropriate commands for changes, e.g. /model or /permissions
