OpenAI Codex lands on Windows with native desktop for AI-powered coding
OpenAI has released a native Windows desktop app for Codex, its AI coding assistant that runs AI agents to write code from natural-language prompts. The Windows version follows the Mac release and supports planning, adjustable autonomy, access to local directories and GitHub, and a multi-chat interface for teams with per-action notifications. Competing tools include Claude Code and Google Antigravity, and although Codex is free with ChatGPT accounts, usage quotas can rapidly exhaust even paid plans.
