Today, Codex has launched new features, including Appshots, which allow Mac users to integrate their app context directly into Codex threads by pressing Command-Command. This feature automatically captures a screenshot and relevant text from the application, facilitating collaboration without the need for manual input. The rollout of these capabilities is part of a broader update for Codex, with enterprise access anticipated to be available soon, enhancing overall functionality for teams engaged in collaborative business environments.
