Built an agent overnight that went through a huge pile of saved social posts and turned them into a searchable personal archive.
Pointed the agent at a target with no map and it located an authentication flaw and proved the access path in well under two minutes.
Same prompt every Monday: new list in, verified, enrolled, campaign started.
Every Monday, verify the new contacts I added, enroll the valid ones in "Weekly outbound", and start the campaign if it is paused.
Gave the agent a single goal of earning a small amount of money and let it go find and complete the work unattended.
Read through recent public code changes and worked out that a second-generation memory system is being built behind the current default.
Codex reads the numbers and pauses on your rule — it can never raise a sending limit.
Check bounce rate per campaign each evening, pause anything above 4%, and tell me which lists the bounces came from.
Built and published a free open-source phone widget that shows how much of the agent allowance is left at a glance.
Practical tips for stretching a usage allowance, starting with writing the plan first and having the agent audit it before any building.
Codex builds the matching LinkedIn campaign and enrolls the same people once.
For everyone in my "Devtools Q4" email campaign, create a LinkedIn campaign with a connection request and one follow-up, and enroll them once.
Gets more out of both subscriptions by having frontier models from different vendors check and challenge each other's work on the same task.
Ran a structured evaluation of agent reasoning across roughly thirty little-known puzzle games rather than trusting a single benchmark number.
When a chat history vanished mid-task, pointed the agent at the local session logs and had it reconstruct what was said.
Paired two machines for a release: one wrote the code while the other used the shipped product like a customer all night trying to break it.
Ran the agent continuously in the cloud against a repository and it surfaced a long-standing bug nobody on the team had answered.
Let the agent read an entire repository unattended and it came back with three real findings, including an install path nobody had noticed.
Connected to WarmySender, Codex can create, launch and manage campaigns on every channel, create and enroll prospects, verify email addresses, search and save lead lists, configure warmup and read stats — in plain language. It never sends a message itself and can never raise a limit. WarmySender's scheduler paces every action inside safe limits and a gradual ramp; connecting and disconnecting accounts stays in the app.
