US EditionOpenAI picks up pace against Claude Code with new Codex desktop app
- On Monday, OpenAI released a desktop macOS app for Codex, temporarily available to all ChatGPT users on Apple computers.
- To close the gap with rivals, OpenAI positioned the Codex app to catch up with agentic-app trends and leverage GPT-5.2-Codex's ability for longer, end-to-end coding tasks.
- Codex introduces Skills and Automations enabling scheduled tasks with results in a review queue; agents run in separate threads using worktrees and can operate independently for up to 30 minutes, OpenAI said.
- More than 1 million developers have used Codex in the past month, with OpenAI temporarily doubling rate limits across paid plans and including access in ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Edu subscriptions.
- The move intensifies competition with Anthropic and Google as OpenAI's roadmap includes Windows support, cloud triggers, and continuous agents amid cybersecurity risks, Altman said.

Apple’s Xcode adds OpenAI and Anthropic’s coding agents
Apple is building OpenAI and Anthropic's AI-powered coding agents directly into Xcode. New integrations in Xcode 26.3 will give developers the ability to call upon Anthropic's Claude Agent and OpenAI's Codex to write and edit code, update project settings, search documentation, and more. Xcode is the software developers can use to create and test apps for the iPhone, Mac, iPad, Apple Watch, and Apple TV. Both Claude and ChatGPT were previously a…
Xcode 26.3 Lets AI Agents From Anthropic and OpenAI Build Apps Autonomously
With Xcode 26.3, Apple is adding support for agentic coding, allowing developers to use tools like Anthropic's Claude Agent and OpenAI's Codex right in Xcode for app creation. Agentic coding will allow Xcode to complete more complex app development tasks autonomously. Claude, ChatGPT, and other AI models have been available for use in Xcode since Apple added intelligence features in Xcode 26, but until now, AI was limited and was not able to tak…
OpenAI’s Codex app: When your IDE gets a brain
OpenAI has given software developers a new desktop toy, and judging by the early reactions, it might feel like someone finally handed coders the Swiss Army knife they’ve been dreaming about or the kind of gadget that makes them wonder if they’re working with a robot coworker now. The company rolled out the Codex app for macOS, a focused interface for managing AI coding agents, designed to let developers do more than just “generate a few lines o…
