OpenAI Codex brings Computer Use to enterprise users and adds Record & Replay for macOS in June 2026 update wave

OpenAI has shipped a cluster of enterprise-facing Codex features across June 2026, highlighted by the general rollout of Computer Use for enterprise customers and a new Record & Replay capability for macOS that converts demonstrated workflows into reusable automated skills.

What's new

According to the Codex changelog, the updates rolled out in three main waves:

Computer Use for Enterprise (June 11 + June 16) Computer Use — which lets Codex navigate desktop environments, interact with applications, and execute tasks on behalf of users — became available to enterprise users outside the European Economic Area, UK, and Switzerland on June 11. On June 16, it extended to those regions as well, alongside availability of the Codex Chrome extension and the Memories feature across macOS and Windows in EEA, UK, and Switzerland.

Record & Replay for macOS (June 18) The most notable new feature in the June 18 Codex app 26.616 release is Record & Replay, described in the changelog as "a macOS feature that turns a demonstrated workflow into a reusable skill." Users record a task once — navigating interfaces, filling out forms, running sequences of commands — and Codex can replay it on demand. The same release added bulk actions for automation run history and thread handoff between local and remote hosts.

Sites preview (June 2) Earlier in the month, OpenAI made Sites available in preview inside the Codex app. Sites lets users create and deploy "websites, dashboards, internal tools, web apps, and games hosted by OpenAI," according to the changelog. ChatGPT Business workspaces include Sites by default.

Amazon Bedrock integration (June 1) Codex can now use OpenAI models available through Amazon Bedrock, with AWS-managed authentication.

Developer mode for Browser use (June 11) A new Developer mode for Browser use gives Chrome DevTools Protocol access inside Codex, allowing deeper browser automation.

Context

Computer Use has been one of the most anticipated enterprise capabilities for coding agents. Early access was limited and regionally gated; June's phased rollout represents the first time enterprise customers globally can run it in production. The EEA/UK/Switzerland delay reflected compliance and regulatory review — the same caution that held back Memories in those regions until the June 16 release.

Record & Replay extends a pattern of making Codex useful beyond the developer use case. Rather than requiring users to write automation scripts, it lets them demonstrate a workflow through normal interaction, then automate it. The pattern mirrors macOS Shortcuts and older robotic process automation tools, but built natively into an AI agent context where the replay can adapt to minor interface changes.

The Sites launch is also notable: OpenAI is essentially hosting simple web applications on behalf of Codex users, lowering the barrier to deploying internal tooling from a technical infrastructure task to a Codex prompt.

Why it matters

The combined effect of these June releases positions Codex as a broader automation platform, not solely a code-generation tool. Computer Use adds RPA-style desktop automation. Record & Replay adds workflow capture without programming. Sites adds hosted deployment. Together they describe a product designed for enterprise workflows that start and end outside a code editor.

For developers, the Amazon Bedrock integration and Developer mode for Browser use signal that OpenAI is also deepening the technical floor — giving professional users lower-level access as the surface-level features expand upward toward non-technical workers.
