The evolution of Software engineering
summary
Codex hits 4 million weekly active users (up from 3 million two weeks earlier) while the platform layers a foundational model under a unified agent harness with CLI, IDE and a desktop Codex app that supports parallel work across repos, native git, plugins/skills, agents.md, exact plans and on-demand code reviews. Live features include sub-agents that split backend/frontend/QA, Imagine-generated UI assets, continuous vulnerability scanning via Codex security, context compaction for long tasks, and automated eval loops that iterate overnight.
