"OpenAI has given software developers a new desktop toy, and judging by the early reactions, it might feel like someone finally handed coders the Swiss Army knife they've been dreaming about or the kind of gadget that makes them wonder if they're working with a robot coworker now. The company rolled out the Codex app for macOS, a focused interface for managing AI coding agents, designed to let developers do more than just "generate a few lines of code.""
"Containers, threads, isolated worktrees, and integrated Git tools support all of this seamlessly within the app, so engineers don't need to jump between terminals, IDEs, and cloud consoles just to keep a fleet of AI agents moving forward.

Codex is a macOS desktop app that provides a focused interface for managing AI coding agents capable of parallel tasks, background workflows, and long-running instructions. The app supports containers, threads, isolated worktrees, and integrated Git tools so engineers can avoid switching between terminals, IDEs, and cloud consoles while coordinating multiple agents. Codex includes reusable "skills" and "automations" for tasks such as gathering information, problem solving, scheduled actions, and routine reviews. The initial release is macOS-only, prompting calls for Windows and Linux support. OpenAI is offering limited-time free access and increased rate limits for several paid plans.
