@jakevin7: OpenAI Codex is taking almost the same path as OpenCLI! Eventually, it will be caught up by big AI firms. The Codex plugin also uses an extension to reuse login states and manipulate the browser itself. It also adopts a non-intrusive mode that doesn't steal focus. Some details in the Codex plugin are well-polished. As expected from a top-2 AI company.
Summary
Discussing the similarities between the OpenAI Codex plugin and OpenCLI, pointing out that Codex also uses a browser extension to reuse login states, but lacks the CLI persistence capability, while noting that OpenCLI is developing an important feature.
