Question 1

What does Codexa do?

Accepted Answer

Codexa turns a prompt into a working project, then lets you edit the real code in a Monaco-based editor, run it in an isolated sandbox with a live preview, and deploy it. The AI agent plans, edits files, runs checks and repairs errors, and every run is snapshotted so it can be reviewed and reverted.

Question 2

Which project types are supported?

Accepted Answer

React + Vite + TypeScript + Tailwind single-page apps, static HTML/CSS/JS sites and Node + Express REST APIs. A Next.js full-stack template is on the roadmap and is not available yet.

Question 3

Do I own the code?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Everything in a project is ordinary source code stored in your workspace. You can download it, push it to GitHub or copy it out at any time.

Question 4

Can two people edit the same file at once?

Accepted Answer

Not yet. Codexa shows realtime presence (who is viewing which file), but concurrent editing with conflict resolution is on the roadmap. Last save wins today, so coordinate on shared files.

Question 5

Is there a mobile app?

Accepted Answer

No. Codexa is a web application; native mobile apps are a later roadmap item.

Question 6

Which models does the agent use?

Accepted Answer

Codexa has a provider abstraction for Anthropic and OpenAI models. The operator of your Codexa instance configures the API key and default model; workspace-level provider connections are also supported. When no key is configured the UI shows an explicit 'AI not configured' state.

Question 7

What happens if the AI breaks my project?

Accepted Answer

A snapshot is taken before every run. You can review the diff the run produced and revert to the pre-run snapshot in one click.

Question 8

Does the agent run my code?

Accepted Answer

Only inside the sandbox through the runner service, and only allowlisted commands: install, build, test, typecheck and lint. It never runs code in the web server process.

Question 9

How many repair attempts does it make?

Accepted Answer

At most two. If validation still fails after that, the run reports the remaining error and stops so you stay in control.

Question 10

Why did I get 'quota_exceeded'?

Accepted Answer

Your workspace reached a plan limit for the current period (AI requests, tokens, runtime minutes, deployments, storage, projects or members). Check Usage in your workspace or upgrade the plan.

Question 11

How are previews isolated?

Accepted Answer

Each preview runs in a sandbox as an unprivileged user inside Linux namespaces with cgroup memory and process limits and timeouts. Docker and E2B drivers are also available to operators.

Question 12

Where are projects deployed?

Accepted Answer

Codexa static hosting works out of the box: the project is built in a sandbox and served at a Codexa subdomain with deployment history and rollback. A Vercel adapter exists but requires a Vercel token.

Question 13

Can I use my own domain?

Accepted Answer

Yes, by adding a CNAME record that points at your deployment. Automated domain verification is planned; until then follow the manual instructions in the docs.

Question 14

Why does the preview say the runner is unavailable?

Accepted Answer

The runner service is a separate process. If it is not running or cannot be reached by the web app, previews, builds and deployments are disabled and the UI says so.

Question 15

Which plans exist?

Accepted Answer

Free, Pro, Team and Enterprise, priced in INR and USD with monthly and annual intervals. Limits are listed on the pricing page and enforced per workspace on the server.

Question 16

Which payment methods are supported?

Accepted Answer

Stripe for international payments and Razorpay for India. Both require the operator to configure keys; when neither is configured, checkout shows a 'not configured' state instead of failing silently.

Question 17

What happens when I cancel?

Accepted Answer

Your subscription stays active until the end of the current period, then the workspace returns to the Free plan limits. Projects are not deleted.

Question 18

How are AI requests counted?

Accepted Answer

Each generation run counts as one AI request, and the provider's reported input and output tokens count against the token limit. Both reset at the start of each calendar month (UTC).

Question 19

How do I sign in?

Accepted Answer

With email and password (after verifying your email) or with GitHub when the operator has configured GitHub OAuth.

Question 20

How are secrets stored?

Accepted Answer

Environment variables and integration secrets are encrypted with the platform encryption key before they are written to the database and are never returned to the browser in clear text unless an editor explicitly reveals a project variable.

Question 21

Is Codexa SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certified?

Accepted Answer

No. Codexa is an early-stage product and has not completed any third-party certification or audit. The security page describes the controls that are actually in place.

Question 22

How do I delete my data?

Accepted Answer

Delete projects from their settings page and contact privacy@codexa.app to delete your account. See the data export and deletion help article for details.

Question 23

How do I report a vulnerability?

Accepted Answer

Email security@codexa.app or use the responsible disclosure form.
