codex computer use

About this tag
Codex computer use refers to OpenAI's integration of computer control capabilities into the Codex desktop app for Windows 11, announced on May 29, 2026. This feature allows the coding agent to see, click, and type within Windows applications, enabling it to interact with browsers, terminals, database clients, and other tools. Users can supervise these actions locally or remotely via the ChatGPT mobile app on iPhone and Android. The update transforms Windows from a passive platform for AI-generated code into an active workspace where Codex can execute multi-step workflows across different environments. This development is significant for developers who rely on Windows for real-world software work, as it makes Codex a more practical and accessible coding agent.
