How to use Open Design inside Codex: Ask Codex to deploy Open Design locally, then tell Codex what you want to build. The real unlock: Codex can operate the design tool for you — choosing workflows, filling briefs, inspecting files, testing interactions, and iterating on the result. Design tools... are becoming agent-operated.show more

Want to try it? Open Design is here: We’re also collecting examples and workflows in Discord. Come share what you build, ask questions, and help shape the agent-native design loop:

刚看到 nexudotio 说 Open Design 在 Codex 里的用法 我没想到 agent 可以直接操控设计工具 填 brief 测交互 全部串起来 之前用 AI 写界面最烦的就是代码和设计中间那层桥接 现在 agent 自己就能干了

I love you, guys 🫶🏼

Is it good for video creation as well?

Yeah, for sure After setup, you can configure Media providers in Open Design settings and choose the video model you want to use

The real product surface here is design-state continuity briefs tokens component rules motion specs QA notes and code diffs staying in the same loop. Agents get more useful when they can inspect and preserve intent not just create a screen.

i think agent-operated design tools get way more interesting once they can actually inspect and iterate, not just generate a mock

Exactly. This is the next thing we want to show. More on this in the next post.

From prompting to operating the tool is a big shift.

Codex choosing workflows, filling briefs and iterating on its own is wild

Agent straight-up piloting the design canvas and cranking out a full Nintendo history deck with HyperFrames? That’s the kind of “I didn’t know I needed this” moment. Smooth workflow, no more prompt roulette. Nice one, team! 🚀

agent-operated design tools is the next frontier nobody talks about

Integrating Open Design with Codex could significantly streamline the design-to-development process, making iterative improvements much more efficient. It’s interesting to see AI taking on a more active role in managing design workflows.

Design iterations break when briefs lack detail in codex

I tried doing that, but it didn't work on my codex. Is there a tutorial?

Sorry it didn’t work smoothly. What issue did you hit on Codex? feel free to open an issue/PR here: We’re adding more tutorials soon, and you’re welcome in Discord too:

filling briefs is cute, i want clean diffs and rollback

100%. Briefs are just step one.

能不能做成一個Plugins

这也是我们正在做的方向，可以关注0.8.0版本及之后的更新哦💪

nice! how integrated is this into codex? is it a plugin or just a git repo?

Make it a plugin or something, this is too much waste of screen real estate, triggering my OCD
