What variant of Codex are you using?
App, CLI
What feature would you like to see?
Currently, this value is hardcoded to powershell on Windows.
In my experience, AI is much better at writing sh scripts than PowerShell. I want to be able to set Git Bash or WSL Bash as the shell for the agent to improve reliability.
