Another one: today we released Remote Computer Use in Codex!
This means you can use all the apps on your Mac from Codex Mobile, even when your computer is at home and locked.
It's kinda magic.
🧵i'm so hyped we're launching Appshots (fka Skyshots) in Codex today (https://t.co/8B2hBknBxr)! the story for this starts in 2024 so i thought it would be fun to run it back!
Codex anywhere and everywhere, all the time.
Now your Mac doesn’t have to be unlocked for Codex to use your computer.
From your phone, Codex can securely use apps on your Mac, even when the screen is off and locked.

the new appshots feature in codex is way more useful than i expected, this is great
it captures a screenshot + the window context, including text, urls, file paths, and even text scrolled offscreen (the offscreen part is so nice)
my one important finding: if you have 2 codex windows open, it pastes into the one you interacted with last
also the cmd+cmd interaction is absurdly smooth, i'm already addicted to it
fantastic job @arix and everyone who worked on this @malonehedges, vasili, @supercgeek, @philzet, @iamkim, @conradev, @mousseau, @suedadam, @leoshimo
this kind of ux inspires me
Introducing Zenbu.js - The framework for hackable software
I wanted the ability to edit the software I use with my coding agents, from there Zenbu.js was born
Zenbu.js allows you to build desktop apps that can be modified by users after installation. This is made possible by:
- shipping the app's raw source code to the user
- a built in plugin system for your apps

This talk by @andy_matuschak is the clearest articulation I’ve seen of where I believe personal computing should go.
The hard part isn’t generating more apps. It’s defining the "physics of a medium" where new behaviors can compose and compound.
I believe that’s the path to personal dynamic media, and the thread running through my personal runtime experiments like vrs and eden.
Must watch. I’ll be coming back to this one often:

Live-scriptable environments, like Emacs, are SO BACK in the LLM era.
I’m excited for software with handles everywhere: things you can inspect, script, and reshape live.
No sealed apps. No AI sidebars. Just hackable software. Great for humans, even better for models.
