Cloud-based AI coding agent by OpenAI — assign tasks and Codex writes, tests, and ships code in a sandboxed environment.
Codex is OpenAI's cloud-based AI coding agent, available inside ChatGPT. Assign tasks in plain English — fix a bug, add a feature, refactor a module — and Codex reads your codebase, writes the code, runs tests, and submits a pull request. Each task runs in its own sandboxed cloud environment with your full repository loaded.
Run multiple tasks in parallel and review the results when ready. Built on the codex-1 model, optimized for software engineering with strong instruction following and iterative test-fix loops.
