I've discovered a new Codex use case! Here’s the breakdown: • I needed to get my hair dyed at a specific salon • I also had a specific date and time I wanted • The slots were full :( • I put myself on the waitlist in case anything opened up • Right before closing, the salon called to let me know a slot was available • I missed the call and didn’t realize who it was from until after they had closed for the night • I went to their online booking flow to try to grab it myself • The slot looked available online, but the booking flow was broken • The service/add-on selector kept flickering in and out of view, so I couldn’t reliably choose the service or continue :( • I tried different browsers and devices, but the same thing kept happening • I asked Codex for help • We spent some time troubleshooting (the issue was corrupted frontend booking state in the modal) • Codex gave me instructions to fix it from my end, but I wanted to test something out… • OpenAI just shipped Codex Browser Developer Mode with full CDP access (you can enable it in Codex via Settings -> Browser -> Enable Full CDP Access) • 😈 I enabled it • With CDP enabled, Codex inspected the live page state, console errors, and booking network requests directly • Codex cleared the bad state, selected the right service, date, and time through the site’s own session/API flow, and booked the exact appointment I wanted • I checked my inbox and saw the booking confirmation Yay! Also I reported the bug to their support team so fingers crossed it gets fixed for everyone who doesn't use Codex
