Use Claude and Codex to build a 'design lab' that centralizes design iteration across projects

A practical workflow tip for AI-assisted design work on apps and websites:
- Ask Claude to set up a "design lab" environment to iterate and stage ideas, with persistent logs of your design history across projects; then tell Codex about it and use that lab as the shared environment for all future design work.
- Benefits: centralizes artifacts across harnesses, makes it easy to reflect on past designs and recall what worked, and makes the experience far more enjoyable.
- Handy tricks: have the agents simulate your desktop or iPhone, swap wallpapers to compare visibility and effects — all without touching your real machine. The lab can also open in an in-app browser.
