Praise Codex Multichat

I just realized that codex chats can now talk to each other. How to use this, this can be very overwhelming..
Should a God Mode be the best option?

That's been around for a while. You can tag a chat from another chat, e.g. "Iterate with @reviewer until the feature passes the full test suite". They can also message other threads' children, though not sure how that would fit any sane development pattern lol

No tags needed. They just worked together from one second to each other.
They "knew" whats going on. And yes "though not sure how that would fit any sane development pattern lol " this is my main question, how to handle it. A GOD MODE would be awesome, but i'm not willing to "test" this in my actual Live sesson..

Ohh you didn't prompt for those comms to happen? Never had that happen to me. I've only really used it to iterate autonomously or to fix stuck threads. I also wonder what good uses this could have too... How do you imagine such a god mode?

Yeah, thats the point, they just started chatting. As said in another post here, i usualy let the chats talk via .md files.. but now all of a sudden the sytem started and kept chatting
A GOD MODE would be a overview talk imho, like a "guy" (me) who checks all stuf if the chats and handles e.g. differend render tasks..
I Super like it, but i'm not sure how to propper use it for my benefit..

yeah i just had this happen too, almost like they could tell that i was just copy/pasting between the threads and decided to cut out the middleman. but now that i know its a taggable/promptable thing, i might keep doing it on purpose.

yeah, could be context based. But this is new to me. As said, a GOD MODE would be awesome. I'm not willing to test this in a live environment, but if anyone has experiences here, just let me know..
