Automate Codex Cleanup Scripts to Cool Down Your Computer and Keep It Smooth
alexcovo_eth · x · 2026-08-03
Shares a practical tip for using AI coding tools like Codex: set up an automation task (such as a Luna agent) to run every 20 minutes to clean up orphaned headless processes, safely clear caches, and audit for low-risk performance improvements.
The author notes that this prevents the computer from overheating due to process buildup (dropping from 100°C to 40°C), restoring an otherwise laggy experience to smooth operation at a negligible automation cost.
