Codex to Agents

What Codex to Agents does

You describe a task in Codex, switch on dispatch in the local Agents dashboard, and Codex sends the work to the chosen executor. The dashboard sets the executor, model, reasoning effort and permissions, manages shared SDD task documents, and offers plugin updates. You can return to the same Codex session to check progress, ask for changes or review the files.

Dispatch is off by default and needs you to trust the plugin hook in Codex. For Hermes, the plugin connects to a local address, http://127.0.0.1:9120 by default, and uses Hermes's current default model. Speed, quota and coding ability depend on the model and provider behind each executor. The README is in Chinese with an English version, and the install guide targets a macOS desktop workflow.
