Feature Request: Bring Back the File Explorer Button in Codex

OpenAI Developer Community May 8, 2026

Hi!

I wasn’t aware that browsing the project directory directly inside Codex was possible.

What works today is right-clicking a project, a conversation, or even a single chat, then selecting Open in Explorer. This opens a window where you can browse the files.

Hope this helps!
