Codex Micro
Your command center for agentic work
Your agents, in color
Each Agent Key lights up with a live RGB status from Codex, so you can tell what’s thinking, running, waiting, or done before you even switch chats.

Trigger Skills Instantly
Flick the joystick to launch common Codex workflows like reviewing a PR, debugging an error, or refactoring code.

Keep Core Actions Close
Command keys give your most-used actions a dedicated shortcut: accept, reject, push-to-talk, start a new chat, and more. Less switching. More shipping.

Set the Brainpower
Turn the dial to adjust reasoning level in the moment. Stay fast for simple tasks, or crank it up when the work calls for heavier thinking.
