Codex Browser Use IS INSANE! Controls Your Computer & Automates Everything!

Ajouté : 2026-05-07

[00:00:00]Open AI's codeex app powered by the GPT 5.5 genuinely feels like a true AI super app that can practically do everything.

[00:00:08]Yesterday I made a video showcasing the full capabilities of codecs from data analysis to full application development as well as building out fullon games to web development, browser use, and even computer control workflows. And when it comes to browser use and computer use, GBT 5.5 is honestly incredible because on the OS world verified, a benchmark that measures whether a model can autonomously operate real computer environments, the GPT 5.5 reaches a 78.7 percentage, also being significantly more token efficient. This is a massive step forward for realworld autonomous AI agents. And now when you combine GPT 5.5 with Codeex, things get even crazier cuz Open AI recently launched browser use within Codeex as a plug-in. And this is to help fully close the build and verify loop for local deployment. You can now ask Codex to build your front end, for example, and then actually test it out with the GPT 5.5 model like a real user by clicking through the application itself. And you can essentially have codecs visually see everything the user sees through vision capabilities while simultaneously inspecting console and network logs to debug and automatically fix issues that it encounters. This is truly a major step forward cuz it brings in fully autonomous coding agents capable of delivering highquality fully tested software changes with minimal human intervention. Not just that, this is something that will help you set up automations, help you control your computer to automate basic computer-based tasks as well. For example, with browser use enabled, GPT 5.5 and codeex is able to handle far more within a workflow across the browser, files, documents that you have within your computer. In this case, it's able to open up a whole home setup that is basically testing out all the visual inputs, interacting with the web app, testing out the user flow, clicking through pages, capturing screenshots, and continuously iterating on what it sees until the task is successfully completed. If you want the best AI tools, workflows, and drops before everyone else, join my free newsletter with the link in the description below, which is completely free. And what's funny is that they know that a lot of people are using this browser use and computer use feature within Codeex, which is why they implemented a huge new change, which makes it much faster. In fact, computer use now runs this use case 42% faster in today's Codeex apt update, which is incredible. And genuinely, this is the first time we have seen large Tangish models operate a GUI as fast as an actual person. And honestly, it feels surreal in these different use cases with Codeex enabling computer and browser use. And the best part about Codeex is that it is something that is completely free and you can install it for Windows and Mac OS devices. Now, I've already made a full-on video showcasing this. So, I highly recommend that you watch this cuz I showcase almost all of the features of Codeex and what you can do with it. So, this is something that will get you easily started. But now once you have it installed, we can get started on what you can actually do with Codex. After installing and logging in with Codex, what you will notice is on the main dashboard, you have a couple of different options. Now, I would recommend that you keep this on the default permissions. And what you want to do first is start up a new project from scratch. This is to help contain everything. But when you are to use the /act command or if you are to press this plus sign and then click on plugins, you will see that browser use has been already installed within your codeex app. If it isn't, you can head over to plugins. You can search up browser use and then you can install this. But what you can now do is use this directly within the chat panel. This is essentially your main dashboard. And you can command browser use to be enabled by simply using the app command. And then you can select it and then request it to do almost anything. Whether that is sending emails, testing out a checkout flow on local host or just simply opening up a page. This is essentially browser use task where you can control your browser with codecs. And in my opinion, you don't need much intelligence with this unless if it is a meticulous task that you're giving it.

[00:04:32]So, if you want, you can set the intelligence to low. And this way, you're not able to run through your rate limit as fast as it used to be if you set it to a higher intelligence. But you can see over here, I simply enabled browser use to open up World of AI on YouTube, and it was able to open up this web page. Now, what's nice is you can even set up automations with browser use. So you can even have a setup directly within codeex to essentially send out emails or simply scrape leads using browser use and then have that automation set by creating that and then having it enabled to use that plugin every single time at a certain time like at 9:00 a.m. Just as an example, I can say use browser use every single day to scrape new AI topics and create a PDF of new AI news. And I can simply go ahead and click on create and there we go. So, it's simple as that. Our automation is completed. And after running that specific automation, this is where it created a fullon PDF. It scraped all the sources and actually listed out all of them at the bottom of the page, which you can see over here. But the fact that it's able to do this quite rapidly and use the GPT 5.5 efficiently is the best part about this because not only is it able to control your browser, but it's able to do deep analysis and help you execute tasks like this on a regular basis. Here is a super simple notes app that I had requested the GPT 5.5 to actually generate. Now what I can showcase is I can have browser use enabled and I can have it test out this user flow of my applications. So I can say test out the nodes app and essentially this is going to have it work upon testing out the exact user flow and this is where it can interact with all the components of my notes app.

[00:06:23]So on the left hand side you can see that it is executing upon all these different tasks. It added a new task and it's able to write up new notes and then add it as well. And it's pretty important when you use browse use with these different user testing flows because it can test out different signup login flows. You can click through entire applications like a real user to make sure everything is functioning properly as well as catching bugs, console and network errors. And you can even essentially have it automated.

[00:06:53]Next, I had just wanted to create a chess game to showcase that browser use is something that can actually test out a full-on development of your application. In this case, I can have it actually play chess. So, I can say, can you play chess for me? And this is a way for you to test out if all the functions of your application is perfect or not.

[00:07:16]And you can intelligently prompt browser use to be invoking certain functions like if it is catching a bug within the console or if it notices something with browser use visually, it is able to execute upon that task and it's able to solve and resolve that particular console log or that issue that it visually saw to make sure that it's able to catch and fix issues on standby. But just take a look at this. This is where we have browser use enabled and it's able to automate the ability to play chess for example. Not just that guys, it's able to execute task off of your computer which is why I had mentioned computer use. This is where you can have it execute a task like organizing a bunch of different random files off of my desktop. This is where I have bunch of different thumbnails that I have previously used for my channel and all of them are quite unorganized. The titles don't look properly formatted.

[00:08:16]So, this is where I'm going to tell browser use to actually go onto my computer, computer use technically, but have it go onto my computer, go over to my desktop, and organize all of them.

[00:08:27]And you can see that it did it quite rapidly and it was able to numerically format all of them in a proper format all the way from 1 to 15. Now another super use Now another super cool use case of computer use is combining codecs with Apple's iPhone mirroring app which basically lets GPT interact with apps on your phone through Mac. Now, this is a little less precise compared to native desktop apps since it's relying on visual clicks and screen interpretation, but it genuinely works surprisingly well. Some insanely useful app workflows that it could be used for is testing mobile app UX flows, automating social media posting workflows. You can manage message as well as work on sending out different emails, mobile game testing, QA testing for iOS, and so much more.

[00:09:20]We're honestly entering an era where AI agents can operate across browsers, desktops, and even phones like real users.
