A user says the new Codex Mac app with computer usage handled a real hardware-support workflow end to end.
- It filled in Samsung RMA forms automatically.
- It then used the motherboard diagrams and device context to identify which of three identical drives was the right one.
- The takeaway is that the agent was useful not just for code, but for a messy real-world support task.
