Codex by ChatGPT - Cloud agent for parallel dev tasks, powered by Codex-1

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! 🚀

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).

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?

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.

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

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

.

Excited to use Codex, I hope they add a little feature to the plus users as well.

I gave Codex a try and it’s seriously powerful — it spins up a sandboxed environment with my repo and just gets to work. Whether it’s writing features, fixing bugs, or suggesting PRs, it feels like having a sharp, reliable dev assistant on demand.

Automated feature writing and bug fixes? Developers might actually get to enjoy coffee breaks now!

This is next-level! Codex feels like having a team of dev assistants who understand your codebase and get to work instantly. The fact that it spins up sandboxed environments for each task—preloaded with your repo—is a game changer for productivity and safety.

Loving the AGENTS.md concept too. Giving Codex instructions specific to your project is a brilliant way to blend automation with context.

Massive congrats to the OpenAI team—this isn’t just another dev tool; it’s a whole new way to build software. Can’t wait to see how it evolves!

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