OpenAI prepares Codex Micro keypad to control AI Agents
Six frosted Agent Keys show live Codex thread status with RGB colors.
TestingCatalog says the Codex Micro can surface whether an agent is idle, thinking, complete, waiting for input, in error, or not running. A tap focuses a background agent; a double tap brings Codex forward. The keypad also includes remappable Command Keys, dial, and joystick controls inside Codex, while Work Louder’s software supports broader app shortcuts. Pricing is not confirmed, with Work Louder’s $199 Creator Micro 2 cited only as a reference point. TestingCatalog's note
