Honestly works extremely well as a personal assistant.
I can see why turning it into an API makes sense, just be aware you might not need to lock yourself in if you can setup your own VMs.

I've recently had great success running codex in a regular qemu VM and using codex remote control to talk to it from my phone. Honestly works extremely well as a personal assistant.

Do you have 1 long running session?
Sometimes start a new chat in the phone app, sometimes just add to the main one. Both seem to work ok.
If I want the agent to wait for something I need to start a new chat in the iphone app.
What I want (which I don’t think exists?) is a way to trigger turns that the user can monitor in the codex application. I.e., when event X happens, my application triggers Codex to take a turn with input Y, which the user can monitor through codex. Right now the only way to get close to this is with polling or essentially rewriting a codex-like frontend.

Pretty easy these days with old school tools like tmux but more modern tooling like herdr [0] is really the path you'd want to take.
you can't use your subscription with this so it's likely the largest companies in the world that can truly use this

Considering the harness needs to be running how else would this work? Pretty easy these days with old school tools like tmux but more modern tooling like herdr [0] is really the path you'd want to take. [0] https://herdr.dev/
- LLMs are a great foundation but building your own harness is a huge undertaking, a deep rabbit hole.
- There are harnesses available as open source libraries but that’s still coupled to an environment. Where does the state persist? Like maybe I’m a Cloudflare worker and don’t even have a file system.
Agent as a service like this lets you plug in the tools it needs to be whatever kind of agent you want. But they still get to encapsulate and continue to iterate on the really deep parts of the harness that all agents need like memory and context management.
That said, my money right now is not on the offerings from OpenAI and Anthropic because they’re stuck using their own proprietary frontier models and those aren’t actually the best choice for most agents right now. A competitor who is not an LLM lab gets their pick of the market at any given moment. Like you’d want to be using GLM 5.3 Flash right now for most things agentic.
