Diorama gives OpenAI Codex coding agents a visual office you can watch work in real time
davidfromkansas · x · 2026-09-17
A developer tired of watching coding agents work through a chat interface built Diorama, which gives agents a visual "office": you watch them run around doing tasks, and when done, they drop their work in your mailbox.
It's a visual wrapper around the OpenAI ChatGPT Desktop app — the same Codex agents, but now visible working and collaborating in real time. Signups are open via waitlist, with the developer personally onboarding users for feedback.
