## AI overview

OpenAI has introduced reusable cloud environments for its Codex coding agent. Developers can connect a GitHub repository, let Codex prepare dependencies and startup checks, then launch tasks in separate virtual machines that remain available across devices. Shared configurations let teams use approved setups, while editing permissions are controlled separately. Environments support standard variables and network secrets, which use an allow-listed proxy to protect real values. Access is rolling out to ChatGPT Plus and Pro subscribers, with Business and Enterprise also mentioned.
