OpenAI ChatGPT Update

Codex Remote is now generally available on all ChatGPT plans, with authenticated one-to-one QR pairing for mobile-to-host connections. The release also adds the DigitalOcean Droplet Workspace plugin for provisioning a Droplet, configuring SSH, and connecting it as a remote workspace.

• Remote Control now uses authenticated one-to-one QR pairing between each supported mobile device and each host.
• Signing out turns off Remote Control without removing existing pairings.

• Codex Remote is generally available on all ChatGPT plans.
• Users can start or continue work on a connected Mac or Windows host from the ChatGPT mobile app, review progress, and approve actions remotely.
• The new DigitalOcean Droplet Workspace plugin can provision a DigitalOcean Droplet, configure SSH access, and connect it to the Codex app as a remote workspace.

• Connections used since June 8 remain paired; older inactive connections need to pair again.

• Users should update the ChatGPT mobile app and Codex app to the latest versions before connecting.
