Original caption

@OpenAI just dropped a massive Codex update! Computer Use lets Codex run automations on your Mac by controlling apps with simulated mouse and keyboard. It can literally act like a user, trying to break your app, fix it, and do it again. I love the new in-app browser to help me test states, reproduce bugs, and drop comments right on the app to quickly run cleanup prompts. So much more features that I'm still testing out , but already this is a whole different way to work. #ChatGPTPartner

Codex New features In-App Browser Memories

Transcript

If you're a product builder, get ready to say, oh my gosh, because Codex just dropped a huge update. So let's take a look. Tell Codex to use computer use on any page of your app, and there it goes, typing, clicking, doing all the things that real users do, directly in any Mac app. You can have it reproduce bugs and fix them right inside of Codex. Because, oh yeah, I should mention, in-app browser. It runs your app inside the Codex app. You can tell it what to simulate, like sign-up form validation, empty states. It helps you spot errors you might typically miss. And speaking of empty states, that empty state is pretty empty. But that's okay, because we can now generate placeholder images on the fly, right from Codex. Hey, you're not alone in the moonlight, because Codex now has memories, which remembers project and workflow patterns used from previous threads in that project. So type slash memories to suggest placeholder images on new features that might have empty states. And there's still so much more to this update, so don't get left behind, go download the new Codex app now.
