Next in the series – the Codex IDE extension. Explore code, implement new features, brainstorm front-end designs, and kick off tasks in the cloud — all from your code editor.

Try it yourself: VS Code: Cursor, Windsurf, others: search OpenAI Codex in the extension directory

i gotta be honest… i go full YOLO mode with it sometimes

Can’t you instead of wasting time on videos actually fix the extension (ask codex to do that:) 1) it doesn’t support stopping 2) for long chats it freezes computer (many GB of ram usage, especially if you accidentally open the diffs in chat) 3) message queuing doesn’t work 4) “@“ files is still super glitchy 5) it still doesn’t have browser and terminal integration like eg @cline please have codex port that from their code

I wish the extension allowed slash commands, in addition to using them in UI. If I use a mouse or a keyboard at the moment, I want to be able to use whatever I'm using at the moment.

fix Codex WSL login on windows, i had to make a whole system prompt and a claude project to make it seamless in my workflow.

I'm loving codex, I really love that I can use my existing plus plan. Keep up the great work!!

just improve terminal. I don't care about IDE

bro introduce a codex plan, specifically for devs

Good stuff, a demo never hurts, learned a lot!

Go to more fast !

Saturate FrontierMath tier 4 and ARC AGI 2

Great.

@cursor_ai now you have a head-on competitor 😬🥶

IDE needs yolo mode. Until then it’s useless. Who has time to click approve every 45 seconds all day.

i dont know i am time traveling or what i have been using it in vscode for last 2 months i think. whats new here?

This is exactly where AI tooling should live inside the dev flow, not outside it. Excited to see how Codex handles real-world projects.

Can we get a plan mode for codex ide extension too? Cant see a plan mode like in the web app or @cursor_ai plan mode....

I can't wait for AI to have full control over any .exe software, transforming those boring programs into something easy and enjoyable to use. @intel @Cisco

Why can’t I queue messages in the IDE like in terminal version?

what's the difference and pros and cons for codex cli and IDE extension? I mainly use codex cli but am wondering what tasks are good for cli and what tasks are good for extension

Great I'm going to try as soon as possible

This could be a real productivity boost! 🚀 Having exploration, brainstorming, and cloud task kickoff directly in the IDE streamlines the workflow—less context-switching, more building. Codex IDE might become the go-to hub for developers.

come on do one for pycharm PLEEEEASE

why does my codex chat window only appear on the left and how do i move it to the right?

I already have GitHub copilot in vscode. Will codex work along with GitHub copilot.

support zed？👀

How good is it with Windows VS Code? Heard before that it used to use python to open files and stuff?

It's almost like Open AI is trying to end software engineers' careers.

no mention of nvim :(

We need super hard examples! If imagination is the limit, we first need to see Codex do something we think is imaginary. Then our ambitions will be high, and we'll build great things. But now we keep seeing kids' games and UIs! We're literally paying to train your AI! I

@grok הסבר לי מה הם מדגימים

can't get access to cloud task in my codex extension (wsl)
