🧠 OpenAI releases the Codex app with parallel agents

OpenAI launched a Codex app built on top of its CLI agent. It adds a visual interface and support for multiple isolated agent threads. Agents can now work in parallel without stepping on each other.

The app supports worktrees for conflict-free testing. It also ships with curated extensions for tools like Figma, Linear, Vercel,GPT Image, and Jupyter. Custom skills can be added on top.

Another addition is task scheduling. Codex can run background jobs on a timer, including CI-style checks.
