This shift targets the 20% of Codex users who are non-developers, a segment growing three times faster than the engineering base. The expansion moves Codex beyond software engineering to bridge the gap between general AI assistance and specialized enterprise workflows. The platform now supports 62 popular apps and 110 skills across six initial professional roles.

Teams can now install plugins to access tools like Salesforce and Figma without manual configuration. A new annotations feature lets users highlight document sections to request targeted updates in place. The plugins are rolling out in preview for Business and Enterprise customers, with admin controls for managing underlying app permissions in workspace settings.
