And although Codex Desktop is not open source (AFAIK), it does expose CDP and appserver which allowed me to build a Greasemonkey-like plugin system on top of it. It's surprisingly powerful, you can add transcript annotations, programmatically control the side panels, integrate a native-looking account switcher, and so on.

This sounds really cool. Do you have the source published anywhere?
Yup! MIT licensed, do whatever you want, you can also just use it directly with nodejs installed through `npx clankerbend` [0]. The screenshot on the github repo links you to a YouTube demo.

Warning: I use this daily myself for work, but beyond me arguing with it to get the CDP architecture, this was completely vibe-coded. I mostly use vim mode (jump to line, jump to prev/next user message) and the account switcher.
