sometimes, there is minor stuff I want to understand, for example I want to highlight the row
GET /staff/auth/session: validates cookies and returns the current StaffSession
and ask “when do we need it at client side?” it can open a thread of comment and reply like
the idea is to have some “by the way” question
the first image is from codex and second one is inspiration
Saw my first mention of the “by the way” slash command yesterday and thought it was great.
This blog post gives some more details for others wondering about the concept.
I would not mind seeing this added to Codex.
While you are more than welcome to post such Code feature request here the official way is to use the OpenAI GitHub Codex issues tab with an issue that uses the label enhancement.
Someone did create such a request yesterday bundled with some other request.
Also see:
As noted by the OpenAI staff
We also recommend that feature requests focus on the problem statement rather than a solution. Describe the use case and what problem you’d like to see solved. There are often multiple ways to address a given problem.
As such, I would recommend that you create a new issue with the label enhancement and do not note btw directly but state the problem such need to ask related questions without adding to the context window.
Also keep the request to just one problem as it might become the De facto enhancement that the OpenAI staff track.
In reading the reference enhancement the OP noted that Codex has /side but as a user of the Windows VSCode Codex extension do not see /side command popup when entered and also do not see /side listed here
In searching the OpenAI GitHub Codex repository for side there is mention of just such an ability.
Thanks EricGT for the valuable information and guidance. I’m glad that people are eager to have it as well. I just want to clarify this further: the ultimate goal I’m really focused on is the annotation or selected text style in the Codex app in the main conversation.
