OpenAI enhances Codex with a MacOS app for agentic coding

OpenAI has announced the release of a new MacOS application designed to improve the user experience of Codex. This new app integrates several agentic coding practices, an approach that has seen increasing adoption since Codex was launched.

The main goal of this application is to simplify and make the software development process more efficient. The integration of agentic coding techniques allows developers to automate certain phases of the development process, reducing time and improving productivity.

Codex, at the heart of this new app, is an AI model developed by OpenAI, trained on a vast dataset of publicly available source code. This allows Codex to understand and generate code in various programming languages, making it a versatile tool for developers.
