Author gave Codex the goal to "faithfully port Quake" and let it run for 3 days. The result is a fully functional browser version running on a TypeScript runtime with PlayCanvas renderer, reading original assets and preserving physics/demos. This demonstrates the potential of long-running LLM agents pursuing durable outcomes through iterative inspection, implementation, and testing.
