BestCodex / Guides

Common questions, answered in full

Longer than the help centre: why it happens, what the options are, and what BestCodex does about it.

Can Claude Code get your account banned, and how do you reduce the risk?

Ban risk comes mostly from your environment: shared egress IPs, a network that jumps around. A dedicated server lowers exposure; nothing can guarantee it.

How do you run Claude Code on your own server?

Three problems to solve: a stable runtime, a session that survives a dropped connection, and reliable two-way file sync with real conflict handling.

Codex setup is tedious — is there a zero-configuration way?

No base URL, no API key. Sign in once and the local config is written for you — what launches is the official Codex app itself.

macOS says the app is damaged and can't be opened — how do you fix it?

Gatekeeper blocking an unsigned app via the quarantine attribute, not a bad download. Move it to Applications and clear the attribute with xattr -cr.

What's the difference between BestCodex and Codex++, and which should you use?

Same codebase, different goals: Codex++ is for deep customization, BestCodex is for working out of the box plus Claude Code on your own server.

What's the relationship between the Codex desktop app, the official app, and BestCodex?

Codex desktop app and official app mean OpenAI's Codex. BestCodex is a launcher, not that app; the only site is bestcodex.app.
