OpenAI just dropped a new Codex app—a desktop version of the company’s agentic coding app—and we put it through its paces.
The verdict: It’s gold for senior engineers. Here’s what you’ll find on the free Vibe Check experience:
- Our high-level take on what the Codex app gets right
- A walkthrough of standout features: the sidebar, cloud-to-local sync, skills library, automations, and code diffs
- The full reach test ratings from our team (yes, the green/yellow/red scores)
- A replay of our live stream where we tested it in real time
Want the full breakdown? The detailed analysis—including how Codex stacks up against Claude Code, who should try it, and who should stick with what they have—is available exclusively for paid subscribers.
Join us at 1 p.m. ET for a livestream with Every’s team about our takeaways from a week of testing.
