FenceTheCode Connects Codex To Local Code

FenceTheCode connects Codex in ChatGPT Desktop to approved local folders through a local MCP server. It keeps projects local while blocking sensitive files, outside-folder access, and unapproved edits.

// ANALYSIS

FenceTheCode addresses a practical gap in AI coding workflows: giving Codex fresh context without repeatedly uploading repositories or exposing secrets.

–Approved-folder boundaries limit what Codex can access.
–Protection rules block `.env` files, private keys, ignored folders, and detected secrets.
–Write with approval mode keeps humans in control of proposed changes.
–The activity log makes allowed and blocked requests auditable.
–Windows-only beta support and an unsigned installer limit trust and adoption for now.
