Hello OpenAI team,
I’m writing to suggest the development of a dedicated Visual Studio Code extension that integrates Codex models (code generation and completion) into the editor, ideally leveraging the existing ChatGPT Plus subscription.
This would be a natural complement to the current ChatGPT code interpreter capabilities and would fill a gap for developers who want real-time, context-aware code assistance directly in their IDE — especially for those who prefer or already use Windsurf.
Key features could include:
- Code completions and inline suggestions powered by Codex.
- Natural language-to-code translation directly in the editor.
- Chat-based code explanation, refactoring suggestions, and debugging tips.
- Compatibility or integration with Windsurf to expand local codebase understanding and AI interaction.
Such a tool would greatly enhance productivity, reduce context-switching, and make your ecosystem even more valuable for developers.
Thank you for considering this. A Codex-integrated VSCode extension tied to existing ChatGPT subscriptions would be a game-changer.
Best regards,
Sam
