A developer turned Codex threads into orb-style subagents on iPhone and iPad

A user built an iPhone/iPad app to keep a Codex-style agent workflow running while the device is charging.

Each thread is represented as an orb, with child sub-agents shown as sub-orbs. The UI also maps three states: working, waiting for approval, and waiting for subagents. The author notes the design accidentally evokes the Sun, Earth, and Moon.
