Codex releases Appshots for its Mac app, letting users press Command-Command to capture screenshots and text from open windows including off-screen content and attach them to the active thread

new codex ships today!

🥅

/goal has graduated from an experiment—for tasks big and small, Codex gets your work done.

Use goal mode in the Codex app, IDE Extension, or CLI to give Codex a specific milestone, and it will keep working until it gets there, even across hours or days.

You can check in and steer, and even pause Codex along the way.

Pro tip: start side chats to understand the work that has been done so far without having to interrupt the main task.

Today we’re releasing Appshots in Codex.

I love this feature! It makes it so easy to integrate Codex into everything I do on my Mac.

Iterating in the Codex in-app browser is getting faster and more precise.

Advanced annotation mode lets you directly adjust page elements while leaving feedback, preview changes instantly, and batch comments for Codex, so designers and developers can show exactly what they want changed without waiting for a full turn.

@OpenAIDevs Starting to think Codex hates Windows users lol.

Neat update. Love those small updates. Cmd+cmd to screenshot open windows

@OpenAIDevs We have also updates for you

@OpenAIDevs Switching to Anthropic man, this is annoying, mac user this that, no model, your rate limits are getting consumed fast, frustrating even though the model is good

@OpenAIDevs eu + windows

yeah you're fucked

Respectfully, guys, I think it's important to flag upcoming updates as Windows, Mac, or both.

I know for sure I'm not the only one who is frustrated, seeing updates that exclude myself and other Windows users.

I get it, we should buy a Mac (and eventually I will, waiting for m5 mac mini), but this isn't fair for those who can't switch...

Goals in the codex app, first simple and practical long running AI

Each appshot includes both a screenshot of a window, and a full grab of the text, file paths, URLs, etc. in of the window.

This is super useful because it includes text scrolled offscreen. So if you appshot a long article or email, Codex will be able to see the whole page.

Major props to @malonehedges and Vasili for shipping this, @supercgeek for designing it, @philzet who built the animation engine, AX infra, and the first version of this feature, @iamkim, product extraordinaire, @conradev eng manager, @mousseau @suedadam @leoshimo and others!

@Ixel111 @OpenAIDevs Windows hates Windows users...

You can take an appshot by: • Pressing the two Command keys on your keyboard • Or, using the "attach app" row in the + menu

Codex immediately grabs whatever you're doing on your computer and attaches it to a Codex thread.

Favorite part of this is the ⌘+⌘ trigger – sooo slick!
