OpenAI Codex

OpenAI Codex

Cloud-based AI coding agent that builds features and fixes bugs autonomously.

AI-powered cloud coding platform from OpenAI that lets developers delegate complex software engineering tasks — feature building, refactoring, bug fixing, code review, and security scanning — to multiple concurrent AI agents working directly in your GitHub repository.
