Improvement Suggestion for the VS Code Extension – Codex (OpenAI)

Hi,

To improve the user experience of the Codex extension in Visual Studio Code, it would be valuable for OpenAI to integrate a continuous feedback system directly into the extension.

Key ideas:

  1. In-app feedback module: provide a button or command in VS Code allowing users to quickly report issues, misunderstandings, or positive feedback.

  2. Automatic categorization of feedback (e.g., bugs, performance, answer quality, usability) to make it easier for OpenAI teams to track and prioritize.

  3. Context-aware reports: optionally attach context such as the model version, type of task, and simplified logs—collected anonymously and privacy-respectfully—to better understand user challenges.

  4. Continuous improvement loop: feed these insights directly into the product iteration cycle so future updates address real-world user needs faster.

  5. Transparent communication: display a changelog within the extension highlighting improvements based on user feedback, reinforcing trust and adoption.

This approach would transform the scattered and often unstructured reviews on the Marketplace into a structured, actionable stream of insights, while making users active participants in shaping the product’s evolution.
