Love this:

>A Goal is not background autonomy without boundaries. It is a scoped, user-controlled completion contract. You define the outcome, Codex works against the evidence in the thread, and the Goal can be paused, resumed, cleared, completed, or stopped by budget.

Codex got stuck on a task earlier this week. So for the first time I switched to the CLI and ran the same prompt as a goal.

It overcame a bunch of hurdles and persisted until the work was done. A few times it got throttled (and redirected?) by the approval agent when it wanted to take a risky action.

I then had it write up what worked so desktop Codex could use the learnings.

I've been using the Payload skill for weeks now but this video taught me new stuff.

I didn't know the skill had guidance for making Payload plugins.

1. Codex asset producer agent.

A native Codex subagent that produces clean, reusable raster assets from approved Impeccable mock references without redesigning the direction. Preserves silhouette, palette, lighting, and material; strips baked-in UI text and presentation chrome that CSS should own. Codex-only because Codex is the harness with native image generation today.

2. Codex-specific image flow extracted.

The mock-and-palette workflow lives in reference/codex.md with a palette-first gate (lock the palette before any mocks, so generated comps stop drifting). Craft.md is shorter and cleaner for every non-Codex harness, and Codex gets sharper, denser guidance for the part it can actually do.

---

In my opinion, front-end design is fully solved, now that we have Codex built-in browser, Codex image generation, and Impeccable.

We're now in a game where the threat detecters tries to stay a step ahead of the AI capabilities of the exploiters

I love Payload, but I miss the SEO guidance that Yoast for WordPress would give on content.

How are you folks handling this today?

I've been using Resend broadcasts for about a year. It lets you send email campaigns, but the features are pretty basic. Like there's no way to choose an audience and send a sequence.

But today Resend launched automations. They're triggered by your product, like a new signup or any other event. Automations allow you to send a sequence of emails, but it looks like the trigger needs to be from the product. This is firmly within the lifecycle marketing category.

My hope is that they launch a date-based trigger. Let's say I'm running a Black Friday/Cyber Monday promotion, and I schedule four emails to go out during that time.
