IDE-integrated diff / approval

### What feature would you like to see? Codex CLI already has a good approval flow: it can show red/green diffs in the terminal and ask the user to approve or reject changes. This works well, but currently it only happens in the terminal. It would be great to also have this experience directly inside an IDE (e.g. VS Code or Cursor). For example: Show the diff inline in the IDE’s editor Let the user approve, approve for session, or reject from there Then send the decision back so Codex can apply or skip the patch This would feel much smoother, similar to how CloudCode shows changes inside the editor, instead of switching back to the terminal. ### Are you interested in implementing this feature? Yes — I’d be happy to help prototype an extension that connects Codex approvals into VS Code / Cursor. ### Additional information _No response_
