Launching a new Codex Cloud, much improved from last year. With configurable cloud environments, it’s impossible to go back to building on your laptop once you’ve taken the time to configure it. Agents API, the same tech powering all our cloud agents, including dots, is also now in preview and supports computer use. It allows you to build the same incredible products we are making available today.
Context
OpenAI's Codex Cloud announcement connects a configurable coding environment with a developer-facing version of its technology. Users can configure cloud environments for Codex, while the preview Agents API exposes technology the company says also powers its own cloud agents, including dots. The announcement explicitly includes computer use, allowing agents to operate software interfaces.
The developer opportunity is to build an agent product using that underlying service. The post establishes the preview and its broad capability, without specifying the environment options or demonstrating a productivity improvement.
