Codex Cloud Ignores Instructions but Nails It From the First Prompt
caydengineer · x · 2026-10-31
A developer's hands-on impression of Codex Cloud: the annoyance is that it doesn't take new instructions mid-run (screenshots show repeated messages going unheeded while it keeps working), but the upside is it performed strongly from the very first prompt — handling platform builds, keeping the PR in draft, and coordinating CI release compilation for a signed APK to test Mentra engine pairing on-device.
