Feature request: Allow multiple instances

Your competitor, “IntelliJ Air”, has a very useful feature: it allows multiple instances to be opened, each one focused on a different workspace or repository.

This makes it very convenient to organize work. For example, on one virtual desktop I can have a setup consisting of IntelliJ Air + IntelliJ working on repository A, such as the frontend of a system.

On another virtual desktop, I can have another instance of IntelliJ Air + IntelliJ working on the backend.

This is not possible with Codex. Instead, I either have to pin the app across all virtual desktops or keep moving it between them, which is much less practical.

Consider it please :slight_smile: Thanks!

You can have multiple Codex CLI sessions open via multiple terminals of course … (but doesn’t help you with the app)
