"Codex can now operate in the background on your computer - opening any app on your desktop and carrying out operations with a cursor that clicks and types."
"The agent will then function, according to the company, as a kind of coding buddy that does auxiliary tasks while you work on topline projects."
"OpenAI's lists 'iterating on frontend changes, testing apps, or working in apps that don't expose an API' as potential use-cases for this kind of agentic assistance."
"Some of the powers OpenAI is now adding to Codex seem to resemble those previously released by Anthropic for Claude Code."
OpenAI has revamped Codex, introducing new features that allow it to operate in the background on users' computers. This enables Codex to perform tasks without interfering with users' work, acting as a coding assistant. The updates aim to enhance Codex's functionality and integration into corporate workflows. Observers note that some of these new capabilities mirror those of Anthropic's Claude Code, which can also control desktops remotely. OpenAI's goal is to make Codex a more competitive and versatile coding tool.
