Dev has Codex autonomously port Doom to his N64, from repo hunt to SD card
Dimillian · x · 2026-10-11
Developer Dimillian asked Codex to put Doom on his N64, and the agent handled the entire pipeline: it found the open-source porting repo, compiled it, grabbed the wad file from his Mac, generated the ROMs, and copied them to the SD card — all without manual intervention. "We really don't physically need to use a computer anymore," he remarked, a striking demo of end-to-end agent autonomy on real hardware.
