Updates to Codex (Plus/Pro)
Starting today, Codex works with you everywhere you build—in your terminal or IDE, on the web, in GitHub, and even from the ChatGPT iOS app. Your ChatGPT account connects it all, so you can work seamlessly between your local environment and Codex’s cloud without losing state.

We’re excited to introduce the latest Codex updates:

• IDE Extension: The new extension brings codex into VS Code, Cursor, and other VS Code forks, so that you can seamlessly preview local changes and edit code
• Sign in with ChatGPT: Available in both the IDE and CLI, eliminating API key setup and providing access directly through your existing ChatGPT plan
• Seamless Local ↔ Cloud Handoff: Developers can pair with Codex locally and then delegate tasks to the cloud to execute asynchronously without losing state
• Upgraded Codex CLI: Refreshed UI, new commands, and bug fixes
• Code reviews in GitHub: Set up Codex to automatically review new PRs in a repo, or mention @codex in PRs to get reviews and suggested fixes

Additionally, all product information and updates for Codex moving forward will be announced on our new site: developers.openai.com/codex.

We invite you to explore the site for more details on these new features, as well as guides on how to get started.
