Codex App: OpenAI’s Command Center for AI Agents on macOS

OpenAI has introduced the Codex app, a new command center for managing AI agents on macOS. Integrated into the ChatGPT desktop experience, Codex centralizes how developers orchestrate, review, and automate agent-driven work.

Parallel Agent Management

Codex organizes work into project-based threads, keeping each initiative isolated so multiple efforts can run in parallel without interfering with one another. A diff-first review workflow lets you inspect and comment on code or content changes before they are applied. With built-in worktrees, multiple agents can safely collaborate on the same repository, each operating in its own branch or workspace.
