We just launched Sites into Codex!

Software creation was always about more than writing code. Sites in Codex fundamentally gives the power of end-to-end software creation to every user, no matter their technical fluency.

These Sites are fully deployed to a URL, private to workspaces, come with authentication, can have static files, and can store dynamic data in databases.

It is in preview for business and enterprise teams and will be rolling out to all workspaces over the next day. Give it a try by typing @ Sites into Codex and ask it to build anything!

This project took a massive amount of effort across hundreds of people at OpenAI - proud that we were able to get this out and excited to see what you all build with it!

Codex is getting easier to automate and customize around your code.

🪝 Hooks customize the Codex loop with scripts that run at key points in a task:
• Run validators before or after work
• Scan prompts for secrets
• Log conversations to internal systems
• Create memories or customize behavior by repo or directory

⚙️ Programmatic access tokens provide scoped credentials for Business and Enterprise teams:
• Create tokens from ChatGPT workspace settings
• Use them in CI, release workflows, and internal automations
• Set expirations or revoke access when needed
• Keep usage tied back to the workspace

You've been asking for this one...

Now in preview: Codex in the ChatGPT mobile app.

Start new work, review outputs, steer execution, and approve next steps, all from the ChatGPT mobile app. Codex will keep running on your laptop, Mac mini, or devbox.

@Shpigford Have you thought about offering it as an org training piece rather than individual training? Likely also a better price range too

[Ryan Fitzgerald @rfitzio]

@alexcooldev Thanks for sharing! Have you figured out a way to solve linking to the app store from your link in bio? It seems tiktok blocks most links to the app store from websites people have in their bio making organic trickier

You can now keep codex going for days.

With GPT-5.5 it will build an entire OS kernel for you if you ask, or find critical bugs in a codebase, or optimize your database schemas, or… the options are endless.

[Ryan Fitzgerald @rfitzio]

@Shpigford I’m finding the Zapier SDK is solid for these use cases since it handles auth and all the tricky things for you. Then just throw a thin layer in front of it for polling, etc and you have a somewhat safer / easier version of OpenClaw

[Ryan Fitzgerald @rfitzio]

@bas_fijneman Appreciate it! Will give that a try

[Ryan Fitzgerald @rfitzio]

@athcanft Any tips on the new review process crackdown Apple seems to be doing lately? i.e more or less removing the ability to hard paywall

[OpenAI Developers @OpenAIDevs]

With GPT-5.5, Codex now gets more of the job done across the browser, files, docs, and your computer.

We've expanded browser use so Codex can interact with web apps, and test flows, click through pages, capture screenshots, and iterate on what it sees until it completes the task.

[Ryan Fitzgerald @rfitzio]

@theo Yeah definitely over the last few days, it still manages but feel like it needs more help than usual

[Ryan Fitzgerald @rfitzio]

@athcanft Are you still able to throw in hard paywalls with no trial just as easily? I thought Apple started to crack down on that pattern a bit

[OpenAI @OpenAI]

We’re updating our ChatGPT Pro and Plus subscriptions to better support the growing use of Codex.

We’re introducing a new $100/month Pro tier. This new tier offers 5x more Codex usage than Plus and is best for longer, high-effort Codex sessions.

In ChatGPT, this new Pro tier still offers access to all Pro features, including the exclusive Pro model and unlimited access to Instant and Thinking models.

To celebrate the launch, we’re increasing Codex usage for a limited time through May 31st so that Pro $100 subscribers get up to 10x usage of ChatGPT Plus on Codex to build your most ambitious ideas.

[Ryan Fitzgerald @rfitzio]

My absolute favourite combo lately has been @OpenAIDevs Codex with @cursor_ai Composer 2. They compliment each other well. Also feel like Composer 2 needs a shout out for how well it generates good looking UI fast.

[Ryan Fitzgerald @rfitzio]

@thsottiaux Less a codex app issue and maybe more a model thing but it’s consistently tough to get good UI generated with it and requires a lot of prompting. Also, would love a way to reset context after plan mode is executed so it gets full context for implementation

[OpenAI Developers @OpenAIDevs]

Automations are now GA.

You can now:
• Set the model and reasoning level
• Choose if runs happen in a worktree or existing branch
• Reuse workflows with templates

Automations are great for recurring tasks — daily repo briefings, issue triage, PR comment follow-up, and more.

[Ryan Fitzgerald @rfitzio]

@rohanvarma I’d love for more on the automation front. The idea is great and I have a bit of usage in my workflows, but it’s still a little flakey from a configuration front (sandboxing needs more options, I’d love to be able to choose reasoning level for the automation, etc)

Introducing the Google Workspace CLI: https://t.co/8yWtbxiVPp - built for humans and agents.

Google Drive, Gmail, Calendar, and every Workspace API. 40+ agent skills included.

[Ryan Fitzgerald @rfitzio]

@Shpigford What agent / model do you use with OpenClaw, local one? Been meaning to mess around with with it
