Codex can now use the computer directly, browse in-app, remember preferences, and work with plugins. OpenAI also added stronger support for PR review, multiple terminals, remote devboxes, and frontend iteration.
This makes Codex more useful as a general-purpose developer agent, not just a code assistant. Teams should expect more cross-tool workflows and more stateful task handling.
Try it on a bounded task first, especially one that spans browser, terminal, and code review. Give clear instructions and verify outputs before merging or shipping.
