OpenAI has added plugin support to its Codex coding assistant, a move aimed at narrowing the functional gap with rival AI coding tools from Anthropic and Google. The new plugins are packaged bundles that may contain skills, app integrations, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, letting users configure Codex for specific tasks with a single click. While power users could already achieve similar results through custom instructions and MCP servers, the plugin library—featuring integrations such as GitHub, Gmail, Box, Cloudflare, and Vercel—offers a more streamlined, searchable experience.

Perplexity introduced Computer, an AI agent that can assign tasks to other AI agents. Operating primarily in the cloud, the service runs within a controlled environment that limits integrations to vetted plugins. Users can supply context through files such as USER.MD, MEMORY.MD, SOUL.MD, and HEARTBEAT.MD, allowing the agent to create, modify, or delete files on the user’s system. While the design aims to temper the wild capabilities seen in tools like OpenClaw, Perplexity acknowledges that large‑language‑model errors and security concerns remain, especially when the agent works with unbacked‑up data.
