Hey Hunters! 👋

OpenAI just launched Codex, a cloud-based AI coding agent designed to handle complex software engineering tasks.

💡 Key Features:

✅ Multitasking: Write features, fix bugs, run tests, and propose pull requests—all in parallel.

✅ Integrated Environment: Each task runs in its own sandbox, preloaded with your codebase.

✅ Smart Guidance: Use AGENTS. md files to instruct Codex on navigating your project.

✅ Human-like Coding: Trained to mirror human coding styles and preferences.

Currently available to ChatGPT Pro, Team, and Enterprise users, with broader access coming soon.

Excited to see how Codex transforms your development workflow! 🚀

Comment highlights

I'm excited to see how this will work out, especially if I'm trying to troubleshoot my codes.

I liked the parallel task execution part. I made 4 PRs for devb.io a platform that creates developer portfolios from GitHub repositories

.

by combing codex-1 with codex, it's possiable to develop projects from sratch and even suport asynchronous tasks.i believe this can improve my work effciency.

Codex looks like the dream assistant. Congrats on the launch. We recently launched Mukh.1, a no-code AI builder for custom workflows and automations. Check it out.

This sounds incredibly powerful! I’m curious, how exactly do the AGENTS.md files work with Codex? Do they support dynamic updates to adjust guidance in real-time as the project evolves?

Had to say it feels weirdly relaxing not having to babysit the PR process anymore. It just submits them and moves on. Nicely done.

Looks Awesome! Good luck Guys @sama @miramurati @lauren_yang @saaswarrior

I am pretty curious how this will play out with the competitors (I mean OpenAI vs. Replit, Lovable and other pro-code oriented tools specifically designed for programming solutions).
