@wibus_wee: codex app-server is truly an amazing tool. You can see a ton of stuff, and the more you use it, the more impressive it gets.
The user highly praises the codex app-server tool, stating that it is powerful and becomes more impressive with use.
@lxfater: Codex has a feature I think is great but nobody uses – Chronicle. Once enabled, Codex continuously takes screenshots of your screen and gains massive context. The benefit of massive context is that you don't need to feed it redundant information. Its answers and assistance become more personalized, and it gets better the more you use it.
