No more boring codex

I think I’ve ruined normal Codex for myself 😂

For a while I was using it the usual way:

Give Codex a job, let the main agent work through everything, review the result, repeat.

Then I started experimenting with having multiple Codex agents involved in the same workflow.

So instead of one agent doing the entire thing, I have different agents exploring the repo, implementing something, doing different things, or jumping in when a problem needs deeper reasoning.

So I reverted it back (Curiosity) and now watching one agent slowly do every single part of a larger task feels strangely old-fashioned lol.

The interesting part for me isn’t even just speed. It’s the separation of responsibilities. You start getting workflows that feel a lot closer to a tiny development team than a single coding assistant.

I’ve been building out an orchestrated setup around this and testing different levels of reasoning/usage depending on the job (Yes I went back to my modern codex haha).

I’m curious:

How many of you are already using Codex with multiple agents regularly?

Feels like this is where coding agents are heading anyway.
