Codex email audit and trip site
Codex, driven by two authors, audited a month of missed emails, built a vacation planning site from a phone, and shopped for a dishwasher.
Codex returned a complete, classified list of missed email threads where Claude missed many; it also deployed a vacation site researched from hotel availability.
Overview
How it was set up
Codex app with GPT-5.5, Gmail, Google Calendar, Drive and Slack plugins, built-in browser, auto-review permissions mode, and remote control from a phone.
Worth knowing
Fewer native connectors than Claude, occasional frustrations, and the authors still prefer Claude for design and writing work.
A prompt to start from
Review my email from the past [time period] and list every thread I have not responded to. Classify each one by [categories] and flag the most urgent.
