 Codex interface showing a workspace sidebar with tasks like “Create Codex hero” and “Implement dark mode.” The main panel displays a prompt to create a launch hero for the Codex app, progress updates (reading and editing files), and an input field labeled “Ask Codex anything,” with the model set to GPT-5.3-Codex.

The best way to build with agents

Built to drive real engineering work

From routine pull requests to your hardest problems, Codex reliably completes tasks end to end, like building features, complex refactors, migrations, and more, powered by OpenAI’s frontier coding models.

Left-hand navigation panel listing workspaces and projects, including Codex, ChatGPT, and Sora, with active tasks such as onboarding polish and implementing dark mode.

Designed for multi-agent workflows

The Codex app is a command center for agentic coding. With built-in worktrees and cloud environments, agents work in parallel across projects, completing weeks of work in days.

New skill creation modal offering options to create a skill with Codex from a thread or upload a skill file, with additional suggested skills listed below.

Adapts to how your team builds

With Skills, Codex goes beyond writing code to directly contribute to the work that turns pull requests into products, like code understanding, prototyping, and documentation, aligned with your team’s standards.

Interface showing a Codex skill workflow where the user asks to use the $openai-image style skill to turn website assets into clouds. The panel shows step-by-step status messages (“Thought for 3s,” “Using skills”), and a generated preview image of a dog formed from clouds against a blue sky.

Made for always-on background work

With Automations, Codex works unprompted, picking up routine but important work like issue triage, alert monitoring, CI/CD, and more, so you can stay focused on building.

Commit dialog summarizing pending changes, branch name, number of files changed with line additions and removals, an input to describe changes, and buttons to commit or create a pull request

Raises the bar across your team

Codex raises baseline quality with more thorough designs, comprehensive testing, and high-signal code review—so issues are caught early and your team ships with confidence.

Confirmation panel indicating all changes applied to a local workspace, showing workspace name, branch, files changed with additions and deletions, and a primary action button to continue locally.

The same agent everywhere you build

Use Codex across multiple surfaces, all connected by your ChatGPT account.

App-style coding interface titled “Let’s code,” set to a weather app. A prompt reads “Add exponential backoff to the notifications API,” showing a developer using Codex to request a specific backend improvement.

Start in the Codex app

Code review interface showing recent changes after implementing dark mode. Two files are edited with added and removed lines, and a message says “Looks great, add tests!” indicating collaborative review and iteration within a development workflow.

Move to your editor

Terminal-style interface showing OpenAI Codex (v0.91.0) with the model set to “gpt-5.2-codex medium.” A prompt reads “Hey Codex, implement dark mode,” indicating a developer asking Codex to modify code via the command line.
