Come join us at a Codex meetup 🌏

Ability to set base branch for repos and also enforce signed commits instead of circumventing the issue if Bitwarden/1password vault is locked.

Also clarity on which features work with api/proxy in the app. Using it with my personal subscription it’s clear but when trying to use it at work behind an ai gateway I see odd behavior like the following issue.

@thsottiaux Creating a worktree option seems to disappear occasionally (Using api). Also, the settings in the bottom left don’t display the normal menu.

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

@LLMJunky I think it’s best to consolidate the Atlas and ChatGPT apps. I rarely open the ChatGPT app anymore and instead go directly to Atlas.

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

Looks like we just got a codex reset again! 🎉

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

@LLMJunky It feels all right. It's still not good at front-end work and also I don't recommend enabling the 1 million context window. It just gets lost in its own context.

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

At least I can say I tried gpt-5.4 with the 1m ctx window, but it becomes unusable past a certain threshold. It starts getting lost in its own context and referencing older info that's no longer relevant.

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

@JasonBotterill Noticed the same thing in opencode. Very eager to just jump right into making changes 🫤.

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

The codex memory system is neat. Being able to recall past bugs I’ve hit and fix them in a similar way feels like building on prior debugging experience instead of starting from scratch.

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

I just don’t see humans becoming “dead weight” in a year. You’re not going to spin up complex AWS/GCP infra and real production systems with a magic wand. There’s architecture, networking, security, trade-offs.

What I can see is sales discovering AI coding agents and showing up with a “quick prototype” that’s somehow already in a customer deck before engineering even knew it existed… with comments like these 😅.

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

I just need to finish one more thing😭

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

@dkundel Do these perf improvements include subscription users?

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

This looks promising, but one recurring pain point for me: many tools treat a workspace/project as a single repo.

A lot of teams aren’t monorepo based. I often want a workspace that groups multiple repos and lets me create worktrees across them together.

Repo centric workspaces break down fast in that world.

[OpenAI Developers @OpenAIDevs]

We’re excited to launch the Codex app, a command center for building with agents.

It gives you a focused space to manage multiple agents at once, run work in parallel, and collaborate with agents over long-running tasks.

why is codex prompting me for approval on almost every file edit this morning? 😭

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

@zebassembly @opencode I hit the same issues yesterday in opencode. It also ended up in some weird loop where it just kept repeating the same thing over and over.

But it feels like a good model I might start using more.

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

Not sure if it had to do with having the new subagents and collaboration mode features enabled in the codex cli, but it felt like I was going in circles with it today.

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

Been having good luck so far with Kimi K2.5 in OpenCode this evening. The model did get stuck on some JSON parsing issues and resorted to running Python, but other than that it’s fast and gets the job done for incremental frontend improvements.

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

@xmarioapps I’m in this process right now and it’s painful especially if you plan to release to playstore as well. So many little things to understand to make it all work.

[Sean Trantalis @strantalis]

@iannuttall Maybe Codex rules could help. I’ve been trying to understand where they fit and how to use them.

With the new codex experimental steering capability, I keep hitting Enter instead of Tab, so I end up sending messages I meant to queue instead 🤦‍♂️
