OpenAI's coding agent that runs locally, written in Rust: reads and writes code and runs commands inside an OS-level sandbox. Sign in with a ChatGPT plan or use an API key.

OpenAI's open-source general-purpose speech recognition model. The whisper command transcribes many languages, translates foreign speech into English and writes subtitle files. Needs FFmpeg; faster with a GPU.

CLI and library for evaluating and red-teaming LLM apps: compare prompts and model outputs in bulk, scan for security vulnerabilities and plug into CI/CD, with evals running locally. Now part of OpenAI and still open source under MIT.

OpenAI's official security CLI and TypeScript SDK: scans codebases to find, validate and fix security vulnerabilities, and can draft a SECURITY.md policy. Needs Node.js 22.13+, Python 3.10+, and a ChatGPT sign-in or API key.

Figma's Codex plugin in OpenAI's official marketplace: implements UI from designs, generates Code Connect mappings, and creates or updates pages, component libraries, FigJam diagrams and slides in Figma. Needs a connected Figma account.

Creates, edits and validates reproducible Python and SQL Jupyter notebooks: organizes cells as reports or tutorials, checks conclusions against actual output and reruns top to bottom before handoff. Maintained by OpenAI in the Data Analytics plugin of openai/plugins.

OpenAI's official Codex plugin marketplace (openai-curated) with 60+ plugins such as Figma, Notion, GitHub, Stripe and Vercel, each bundling skills, MCP servers and app connections into one install.

Build with OpenAI best practices inside Codex: call the OpenAI API, build and deploy agents with the Agents SDK, create ChatGPT apps and prepare submission materials, and create API keys directly. Maintained by OpenAI; Codex only.

OpenAI's official iOS skills: SwiftUI patterns and view refactoring, iOS 26 Liquid Glass, App Intents, performance audits with ETTrace sampling, memory leak hunting with memgraph, and simulator debugging. Needs macOS and Xcode; debugging skills rely on XcodeBuildMCP.

Reproduces issues on the Android emulator: installs builds, drives the UI with adb, dumps the UI tree, takes screenshots, captures logcat, and gathers performance evidence with Simpleperf and Perfetto. OpenAI's official Codex plugin; needs the Android SDK.

OpenAI's official Codex plugin for macOS apps: building and running, SwiftUI scenes and AppKit interop, testing and troubleshooting, signing, notarization and packaging, and logging instrumentation. Requires macOS and Xcode; Codex only.

OpenAI's official Codex plugin for iOS: SwiftUI UI work and refactoring, App Intents, simulator debugging, performance profiling and memory leak hunting, with XcodeBuildMCP built in. Requires macOS and Xcode; Codex only.

Security scans for a whole repo or for changes like PRs and commits, with threat modeling, vulnerability triage, fixes and re-verification; reports export to JSON, SARIF and more. OpenAI's official Codex plugin; requires Codex Security access.

Microsoft Translator's translation quality tool: GPT scores each sentence using MQM error categories or a direct score; --list_mqm_errors shows error types and severity. Needs line-aligned source and target files, Python and an OpenAI or Azure OpenAI key (paid); a translator should still review.
