Alongside GPT-5.6, OpenAI folded Codex into the ChatGPT desktop client with faster Computer Use, inline Markdown/code editing, GitHub PR review in the sidebar next to the diff, and multi-repo work in one project. The agent surface is consolidating into the chat client, and the workflow now assumes multi-repo, review-in-place operation rather than a single-repo CLI loop. If you're comparing Codex to Claude Code, that's the new baseline.
