CODEX INSTALL PROMPT

Read it. Copy it. Then run it.

This is the complete prompt copied to Codex. There are no hidden steps.

Help me install and verify the DreamSkin Studio Aurora Circuit theme.

Safety and scope:
1. Confirm this Mac is running macOS on Apple Silicon and that the official Codex app bundle identifier is com.openai.codex.
2. Before running anything, show me every command and explain what it changes.
3. Review the upstream macOS instructions at https://github.com/Fei-Away/Codex-Dream-Skin/blob/181e2c4a6770dedecc65b2aff590ac5fbbe1ff85/macos/README.md. Use only upstream commit 181e2c4a6770dedecc65b2aff590ac5fbbe1ff85; do not use a moving main branch.
4. Install the reviewed upstream engine with its documented macOS installer. Never use curl piped into a shell.
5. Download https://codexskin.io/themes/aurora-circuit/background.png to a temporary local file and verify its SHA-256 equals 94c3a114f4f44461aeaa0d0ea2aae8e3f7aa3b0c4d21cf3762927584ffab36b7.
6. Apply the image with the installed customize-theme-macos.sh using:
--name "Aurora Circuit"
--tagline "Build where the signal is strongest."
--quote "FOLLOW THE SIGNAL"
--accent "#7cff46"
--secondary "#36d7e8"
--highlight "#642a8c"
7. Run the upstream Verify launcher/script and report the exact result.
8. Show me the Restore launcher/script location and explain how to return to the official appearance.
9. Do not modify any API key, Base URL, model provider, proxy, or HiAPI setting. Theme installation and API configuration must remain separate.

Stop and ask me before continuing if the operating system, Codex version, bundle identifier, upstream commit, downloaded SHA-256, or expected paths do not match.
