what an incredible resource

This is a great example of how much leverage you get when you treat AI like a system, not just a tool.

Great guide. Organized the main takeaways into a clean note so it’s easier to scan and revisit:

Do you have the link for the design skill ?

This is pure gold, your rock Riley 👊

thank you sir!

This over Claude code or in tandem or what

I use Claude when I need it in the terminal in Codex. But this app blows their desktop app out of the water.

Awesome, thx man, will give it a shot

Just thought i'd share the is a great api to pull in the logo's for companies for free for the remotion video, i haven't finished how you solved it but thought id share.

@thsottiaux when will we get feature parity for the codex app on both Windows and Mac?

Just ran the multitasking setup for a side project and it’s actually insane. One session = app + deck + video + posts. Codex finally feels like a team.

@choruscom YouTube? 🙏

@choruscom 30 min will be uploaded.

but I still use Claude App

Codex looks promising, but how does it handle context switching between projects?

Looking for the same kind of tutorial to get started with Codex and this came at the right time. Will check this one before digging into the documentation.

thx sir

Very helpful! Thanks!

Giving this to my intern, thanks

This feels less like a tool and more like a full operating system for AI agents

All-in-one sounds powerful… but simplicity will win long term 🔥 That’s the direction we’re taking with Notsify.

the way you're using Codex for multitasking is exactly what I've been trying to do with agent workflows.. fork a chat mid-conversation to spin up a deck while the main thread keeps building the app.. that's the unlock

A month behind anthropic yet again.

How does it perform with local models?

Thanks man!

@codex, subtitle this video for me.

the thing that trips people up is assuming codex super-app is just about using ai tools, when it's actually a platform for building entire experiences around those tools. most devs and founders are thinking too small

thanks, can you share the Mobile Design Skill?

This is by far the best video I have watched on Codex. No gimmick, just pure gold... Once you watch this video, you will realize all you need in this world is Codex & your girlfriend...

this design skill, any tips on extracting it from claude design?

Not sure the "all-purpose super app" framing holds when you're deep in agent memory work. I've found Codex solid for quick chats but its context window and recall still lag Cursor pretty hard on longer projects. tbh after switching I save 30%+ time on iterative builds. What's one workflow where you've seen Codex actually outperform on memory specifically?

You win the internet this week! Thanks @rileybrown!

Parallel agent runs bleed context fast. Isolate workflows or debug drift all week.

The product is not the agent. It’s the surface where people can steer and recover. That’s where trust gets built.

I can't wait for the Windows version to come out.

Love your content! I've learned a lot from your YouTube videos. Thank you.
