Codex is OpenAI's autonomous coding agent for local CLI work and cloud task delegation. It can inspect a repository, make multi-file edits, run tests, and create reviewable diffs or pull requests depending on the workflow. Use the CLI when local services and immediate feedback matter. Use cloud tasks when branch isolation, async completion, and GitHub review loops matter more.
