One important feature of a competing product which I find is really missing from codex is the ability to run Bash commands in the background, and have Codex query and look at the outputs of the shell.
One example workflow which I find super effective is
Starting the dev server in the background, getting the user (or the model itself in a playwright browser) to interact with the application, then the model reading the logs from the dev server using a BashOutput tool.
I think an area which Codex could get ahead of this relative to their competitors is providing a nice ui to look at the shell output yourself, rather than completely abstracting it away from the user (kind of like the competitors tool does).
(This is the competitors tool, I think this UI could be improved a lot and there is room for codex to make strides here.)
