Codex Update - 5/21/2026

Appshots, goal mode, and more 26.519

  • Appshots, goal mode, and more 26.519 Appshots are now available in the Codex app on macOS. Press both Command keys to send the frontmost app window to Codex with a screenshot and available text, so Codex can work from context in another app without you copying, pasting, or describing it manually. This launch also includes:
    • Goal mode is no longer an experimental feature and is available in the Codex app, IDE extension, and CLI. With Goal mode, you can have Codex drive toward a specific objective for hours or even days.
    • Remote computer use, so Codex can use desktop apps after your Mac locks, including remotely via Codex Mobile. Codex scopes locked use to active, trusted computer use turns and includes safeguards such as short-lived authorization, covered displays, relock on local input, and manual-unlock fallback.
    • Plugin sharing through marketplace sources is available for ChatGPT Business. Enterprise support is coming soon. Teams can distribute reusable plugin bundles that include skills, app integrations, and MCP servers.
    • Advanced in-app browser annotations let you tweak styling such as font size, colors, and spacing directly using annotations. This gives Codex a clearer signal for changes.
    • Browser-use improvements across in-app browser & Chrome:
      • Codex can now download and extract all image assets from a page much more quickly.
      • Codex can now extract structured data from pages more effectively and find information more quickly with a read-only JS sandbox.
    • Chrome extension will create less clutter when using it. Codex will no longer create tab groups when taking over existing tabs, and at the end of a task for handoff. Instead, it uses tab icons to indicate status.
    • Significantly improved reliability for browser use. We fixed bugs on Windows, flaky availability of the plugin to non geo-blocked regions, and many other issues impacting performance.

Another One Bites The Dust... RIP Destiny 2 - Final Patch June 9th

Tl;DR - They're gonna release the final content update on June 9. Available free to everyone, which is kinda cool. Maybe Asmon can check it out finally now that he called its death.

Also, on the official Bungie article, little thing at the bottom looks kinda personal..

"From all of us here at Bungie, we cannot thank you enough for joining us on this journey throughout the Sol system. You'll still find us starside for years to come."

The Remote Codex Feature Is Unreal

As an almost 40 year old dude, who remembers typing to terminal before Windows, this shit blows my mind. Also I LOVE the UI/UX. I feel like it’s my little hacking terminal 10 year old me wanted so badly.

I’m sitting in the car, waiting for my wife to do her P.T., and I wanted to see its limits on getting my 1.5 build tested and ready to push devices.

Computer Use ✅
Impeccable ✅
Superpowers ✅

The part that got me was I asked it to do a full test/UI sweep and then upload the build to App Store Connect via Xcode for me and it had zero issues. Able to push to TestFlight remotely and I’m already testing the new build from my phone.

I don’t wanna glaze too much but OpenAI you have impressed the fuck out of me lately with 5.5 and beyond.

Now keep our $100 Pro plan Codex limits at 10x and maybe I’ll have to buy a yearly.
