OpenAI’s Codex macOS App as Command Center for Managing Multiple AI Agents
Intelligence: OpenAI launched the Codex desktop app for macOS as a "command center for agents" that lets developers manage multiple agents in parallel, run work across separate threads organized by projects, and collaborate over long-running tasks spanning hours, days, or weeks. The company is temporarily including Codex with ChatGPT Free and Go while doubling rate limits for Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Edu plans across all interfaces.
The app includes "skills" that extend Codex beyond code generation, bundling instructions, resources, and scripts for tasks like fetching Figma designs, managing Linear projects, deploying to Cloudflare/Netlify/Vercel, and generating images with GPT Image, with OpenAI having built hundreds of skills internally for running evals, drafting documentation, and reporting on experiments.
Codex built a complete racing game with different racers, eight maps, and power-up items using over 7 million tokens from one initial prompt, taking on designer, developer, and QA tester roles by actually playing the game to validate its work.
Built-in worktree support lets multiple agents work on the same repo without conflicts. Each agent works on isolated code copies allowing exploration of different paths without affecting local git state, while Automations run background tasks on schedules with results landing in review queues.
Since GPT-5.2-Codex launched mid-December, overall usage has doubled with over 1 million developers using Codex in the past month. OpenAI plans Windows support, faster inference, cloud-based Automation triggers, and refined multi-agent workflows based on real-world feedback.

OpenAI and Snowflake Announce $200M Multi-Year Enterprise Data Partnership
Intelligence: OpenAI and Snowflake entered a multi-year $200 million partnership bringing OpenAI frontier intelligence directly into Snowflake's data platform used by 12,600+ companies, letting enterprise customers use GPT-5.2 with Snowflake Cortex AI to build custom agents grounded in their data and ask natural-language questions via Snowflake Intelligence without writing code.
With Snowflake Cortex AI Functions, teams can call OpenAI models directly from SQL to analyze rows, columns, text, images, or audio making AI "a natural extension of the language they already know and trust" according to Snowflake CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy.
Canva's Head of Data Science Helen Crossley said both companies have been "key to how we rapidly empower our users with new creative tools," while WHOOP's Senior Director Matt Luizzi noted the partnership helps make AI "a practical, everyday tool for the business" while maintaining security and governance.
The partnership extends OpenAI's enterprise reach beyond existing major customers including Accenture, Walmart, PayPal, Intuit, Target, Thermo Fisher, BNY, Morgan Stanley, and BBVA with over 1 million business customers now directly using OpenAI.
Going forward, teams will collaborate on features leveraging OpenAI Apps SDK, AgentKit, and APIs for shared enterprise workflows, while Snowflake continues using ChatGPT Enterprise to help employees make decisions faster and collaborate more effectively.
