ChatGPT integration

[aehlke]

I'd love to be able to move a codex session over to ChatGPT to brainstorm and use web search features and so on in a nice UI when I'm just trying to research a task and experiment with ideas. And then bring the result of that (or of a chat I started in ChatGPT) into codex CLI easily so that I can then prompt it to take action based on that context.

Ideally this would be seamless with the macOS app.

Why do you love this discussion-less thread so much? You keep shutting down discussion to link your favorite thread. I guess it's easier than actually working on the solution.

@ChazWinterYT, we generally use upvotes to inform prioritization on the Codex team. If there are a dozen open issues that all speak to roughly the same feature, it dilutes the signal. This thread already has many upvotes, so if you'd like to discuss this feature, please comment in this thread rather than creating a new one.

Note that now my biggest use case for this would be to seamlessly bring the 5.2 Pro model in for helping with a Codex session, or for brainstorming with Pro first and then bringing that to Codex (so, either direction)

Bringing chats and projects from ChatGPT to Codex and vice-versa is essential. Right now the only way to do that is manually transcribing everything to bring it back and forth as context. Not ideal (and very time consuming) but it works.

I thought that once I am logged-in, Codex (VSCode ext.) would have access to my past ChatGPT chats and projects, but it doesn't. I have a full project where I am designing something new technically and ChatGPT offers me the kind of brainstorming (voice included) that Codex can't, that's why I use both and constantly switch back and forth but the UX would be much better if they are able to work together.

That's why both are needed to work more closely together IMHO.

Yes. I agree, i also brainstorm in ChatGPT but have no way of having that context in codex seamlessly. Did you manually copy and paste between them to include the context in codex?
