OpenAI Launches the Agents API in Public Beta, Putting the Codex Harness Behind One API Call

OpenAI released its Agents API in public beta, exposing the managed Codex harness with hosted or self-hosted sandboxes, MCP tools, and subagents.

The Agents API is a managed service built on the open-source Codex harness, handling context compaction, tool search, programmatic tool calling, and multi-agent orchestration. Agents run in OpenAI-hosted sandboxes, self-hosted environments, or partner sandboxes from Blaxel, Cloudflare, Daytona, DigitalOcean, E2B, Modal, Oracle, Runloop, and Vercel. Data residency is US-only and Zero Data Retention is unsupported. Examples use model gpt-6-astra; vendor-reported results include SafetyKit cutting case review cost 60% and Ciridae achieving 4x lower subagent latency.

OpenAI Agents API

OpenAI's Agents API documentation describes a managed Codex harness offering sandboxed agents, MCP connectivity, subagents, and US-only data residency.

The Agents API lets applications run durable agent sessions while OpenAI manages orchestration, context compaction, and recovery on the Codex harness. Agents can execute code, edit files, and connect to MCP servers in OpenAI-hosted or self-hosted sandboxes. Example applications include an incident response agent, Slack bot, data analyst, and GitHub issue investigator. Billing follows model, tool, and container rates; the examples use model gpt-6-astra.

Using Blender with coding agents on macOS

Simon Willison demonstrates driving the Blender macOS app with ChatGPT Codex coding agents to render scenes via Python, costing roughly $4.24 at API rates.

Willison documents installing the full Blender application from blender.org and using ChatGPT Codex on macOS to render a pelican-riding-a-bicycle scene through Blender's Python API. He refined the output with follow-up prompts. AgentsView estimated the equivalent API cost at $4.24 for gpt-6-astra.
