Still not useful enough for me and I really want this feature!

The problem I encounter is the inability of the LLM to look stuff up and respond to me. "What's that name of that database table?" "What are all the services that call this endpoint?" "Are there any open PRs for this repo right now?"

Once information can flow in both directions not just one it will be a gamechanger for me.

This works today right? What part of this are you missing?
Not as far as I know. Can you walk me through the process?

I have my phone, I'm going for a walk, what app am I opening?

For Codex, that is ChatGPT? https://openai.com/index/work-with-codex-from-anywhere/

Or do you want it to speak to you too? I think this would have to be TTS on your phone. You can have ChatGPT speak to you but I don't see that feature in Codex.

Sure I speak to ChatGPT all the time and I've used the feature you've linked but it can't do the things I described. It won't be like, "hey let me go look into that" and then come back in 3 minutes with an answer. It's essentially a dictation feature.
I am lost. Codex can't look up stuff for you in your codebase? GitHub Copilot can't look up PRs for you?
