For developers who live in the terminal and want ChatGPT‑level reasoning plus the power to actually run code, manipulate files, and iterate – all under version control. In short, it’s chat‑driven development that understands and executes your repo.
OpenAI Codex helped us rapidly prototype and refine transformation logic directly inside the terminal — which mirrors how Clean Clode is actually used. We consider this and Claude Code to currently be the best and most widely CLI coding tools.
The reason I made the app in the first place is that I wanted to test the new OpenAI Codex macOS app. I really enjoyed using it. The underlying Codex model is also great, of course.

XHawk 0.99 — Transform Coding Sessions into Knowledge
This sounds like a seriously powerful tool for devs who live in the terminal. Combining ChatGPT-level reasoning with real execution, file manipulation, and version control could really streamline workflows. Excited to see how this evolves for hands-on coding environments!

Codex keeps shipping new features, but compared to Claude Code's CLI agent, it still lacks that "let the agent handle it" autonomy for multi-step tasks. Hope the team closes the gap soon — healthy competition benefits all developers.

OpenAI's answer to Claude Code.
Not be confused with Codex CLI by Microsoft, nor OpenAI Codex, which was launched in 2021!

@axindie they might just buy Windsurf instead. For $3B.
I appreciate the CLI integration for devs! 😄
