Codex NN is a desktop app that lets you change the visual theme of Codex Desktop, the official desktop client for OpenAI's Codex. The project is unofficial and community made. It does not modify the official Codex installer, program files, or code signing, and it is not affiliated with OpenAI or Anthropic. Instead of manually editing files or running scripts to change how Codex looks, you open Codex NN, pick a theme from its library, and apply it with one click. The app ships with five built in themes covering different visual styles, and it can also import theme packs made for a related project called Codex Dream Skin. A minimal theme pack is just two files: a theme.json declaration and a background image, with no scripts, CSS, remote resources, or encrypted files allowed, which keeps themes simple and predictable. Beyond picking pre made themes, Codex NN includes an AI assisted theme design feature. You describe the visual style you want, or provide a reference image, and it can install a companion design plugin for either Codex or Claude Code. That plugin generates a full interface concept for you to approve, then produces the background, colors, and text for a new theme package, installing and previewing it live through a local connection so you can keep giving feedback until you are happy with the result. Under the hood, Codex NN works by connecting only to a local Chrome DevTools Protocol port on your own machine to apply themes to the running Codex window, with a background process keeping the theme active. It does not replace official binaries or break code signing, and a full restore option returns Codex to its official appearance at any time. The app supports macOS and Windows, with Linux not yet supported. Codex NN is open source under the MIT license.
