Two browser updates for today's Thursday Codex drop:
Dev Mode faster browser use.
1/ Dev Mode
Now, you can give full CDP (Chrome DevTools Protocol) access to your Codex agent so it can be more helpful in deep developer workflows.
By turning this on, your agent will be able to inspect:
- runtime errors & console log
- network requests, responses & failures
- live DOM, storage, and page state
This is really helpful for debugging gnarly bugs and making your apps more performant.
To try it, go to your codex settings, and search developer mode to toggle it on!
2/Browser Use Perf improvements
Using Codex to drive your browser should feel much faster after this week's update, up to 2x in many cases!
We made the plugin a lot more efficient, and truncated a lot of redundant text in the skill.
Let us know what you think!
