A creator built a tool using Codex that screenshots their work, analyzes patterns, and flags repeatable tasks to automate. It spots inefficiencies and identifies skills that could be handed off to others or robots. The tool was built fast and could scale personal productivity by cutting routine work.

And so, you know how Meta right now, they're basically, they're kind of seeing how people are, their employees are doing things and they're making processes with it? Or like if I— some factory companies are making you wear a suit so they can see how you run certain processes when you're building things. Are you familiar with this? Yes. Okay. So I made something, we were talking about this, but I basically made something using Codex that it's been watching me for this last week. So it'll take screenshots every now and then. I don't even know what screenshots it's taking, but it's watching my screen. And it's telling me, hey, this is how you work right now. These are the skills that I think you should be making, meaning that these are processes that I can then— these skills I can hand off to other people and make them very portable. But it's also telling me in which ways I work very inefficiently and how I can work better, right? And so I've been running it on myself and it didn't take me that long to build. I was actually pretty shocked how long it took me to build it. But I'm like, oh man, if we run this with the understanding that, hey, this is going to help make everyone better and we're going to basically— it's going to make you work more efficiently and it's going to Make a lot of processes like skills that you can then hand off to a robot to take care of so you don't have to do it. I'm like, that is super high leverage.
