While my Codex Agent has been able to perform autonomous tasks, it still needs to ask for permission or verify steps ... thought it would be slick to have away to confirm over mobile! Just searched and yup, this is already built into ChatGPT app! 🙌 developers.openai.com/codex/remote-c…

@itechdad I really should try Claude Code, but I've already have so much context in ChatGPT/Gemini, I just happen to give Codex a kick yesterday. For now, I'm pretty happy and I'll see how far this project goes. I feel you need time in one, so trying to get comfortable before adding more

@lamw Yea it’s sad how much I am using Claude Code for projects but is such a time saver with something that would take hours to do can get done in a few hours. They only seem to be getting better over time :). Have heard good things about Codex I have subscription s for both.

I recently asked both ChatGPT & Gemini to give me script that updates Windows Startup/Shutdown script, neither got working version after several attempts. Had Codex open, didn't expect diff outcome, gave it same prompt & it came to solution that worked 🤔

Once you experience Agentic Dev ... 🤯 Had idea last night, wasn't taking it seriously. Ask Codex (free) to build me HTML prototype, it looked so good! Ask it to go further this morning, ran out of free request ... subscribed to Pro to continue pet project 😎 Future is wild! 🚀

@itechdad exactly … and Codex has no context, maybe random task I had done earlier that wasn’t even related Either way, I’m sold on Codex, pet project is progressing nicely

@lamw Yea this is like me asking Claude to do something then switch to Claude code and it just works. I think Codex uses the same model you would think you would get same result from either lol.

@thatvirtualboy 💯 Just got Pro plan just to continue my pet project, after running out of free requests!

@lamw Codex has been incredible
