Feature Request: VS Code Extension – Codex (OpenAI)

Hello OpenAI team,

I am currently using the Codex VSCode extension and greatly enjoying it. I especially appreciate how Codex integrates into my workflow, and I am interested in developing another VSCode extension that can work in conjunction with it.

With that in mind, I would be very grateful if you could consider adding the following functionality:

  • Codex: Input message — Insert a given string (or the selected text) into the Codex Chat input field.
  • Codex: Start chat — Begin an interaction in Codex Chat.

I believe having commands like these would make it easier for other developers to build extensions that integrate with the Codex VSCode extension, which in turn could encourage a more vibrant ecosystem around it.

Best regards,
Atman
