Codex is OpenAI’s coding agent that can read, edit, and run code. It helps you build faster, fix bugs, and understand unfamiliar code. With Codex cloud, Codex can work on tasks in the background (including in parallel) using its own cloud environment.

Go to Codex and connect your GitHub account. This lets Codex work with the code in your repositories and create pull requests from its work.

Your Plus, Pro, Business, Edu, or Enterprise plan includes Codex. Learn more about what’s included. Some Enterprise workspaces may require admin setup before you can access Codex.


Write clearer prompts, add constraints, and choose the right level of detail to get better results.

Start with proven patterns for delegating tasks, reviewing changes, and turning results into PRs.

Choose the repo, setup steps, and tools Codex should use when it runs tasks in the cloud.

Kick off a cloud task from your editor, then monitor progress and apply the resulting diffs locally.

Tag @codex on issues and pull requests to spin up tasks and propose changes directly from GitHub.

Decide whether Codex can reach the public internet from cloud environments, and when to enable it.
