Yesterday codex managed to launch an MVP of a new scientific instrument. The second one we've built. This is a pretty amazing achievement. It was only possible due to the theoretical side and the initial coding being done primarily by GPT5 Pro. 5Pro is a great thinker and coder (yes of course it needs context and it ideas, preferably contradictory ones, fed to it to power its creative juices but that's just about learning how to handle it) and currently its main limitation (apart from chat length/memory constraints) is that it does not have direct visibility of the code it creates. So I use VScode Insiders, and copy/paste 5Pro's code to Codex CLI in Vscode. Typical chunks of code take around 15 minutes for Pro to write and another 10-15 for Codex High to install and debug. I'm not a coder so i don't know whats gone on under the hood. I need a way to report back to Pro so it can understand if the code is actually installed or going to work correctly. Currently the only ways I can do this are to use Repoprompt, and/or just keep plowing away until we run the MVP and see if it works. But it would be soooo much better if 5Pro could just be able to read repos directly. Any hope of this happening soon? Could be massive for scientific research...
