Emdash
Emdash
Emdash is an orchestration layer that lets you run multiple coding agents in parallel, each in its own isolated Git worktree, so you can simultaneously spin up different agents to tackle independent subtasks or experiments without interference. It’s provider-agnostic, meaning you can pick from various AI models and CLIs (for example, Claude Code, Codex, and others) to fit your workflow. With Emdash, you can assign issues or tickets (from Linear, GitHub, or Jira) directly to a chosen agent, then watch multiple agents operate side by side in real time. The UI shows live agent status and activity, and once agents generate code, you can review diffs, comment, and open pull requests, all without leaving Emdash. Because every agent runs in a separate worktree, changes stay sandboxed and comparable, enabling you to test different implementations or strategies side-by-side safely.Starting Price: Free -

GPT‑5-Codex
OpenAI
GPT-5-Codex is a version of GPT-5 further optimized for agentic coding within Codex, focusing on real-world software engineering tasks (building full projects from scratch, adding features & tests, debugging, large-scale refactors, and code reviews). Codex now moves faster, is more reliable, and works better in real-time across your development environments, whether in terminal/CLI, IDE extension, via the web, in GitHub, or even on mobile. GPT-5-Codex is the default model for cloud tasks and code review; developers can also opt to use it locally via Codex CLI or the IDE extension. It dynamically adjusts how much “reasoning time” it spends depending on task complexity; small, well-defined tasks are fast and snappy; more complex ones (refactors, large feature work) get more sustained effort. Code review is stronger; it catches critical bugs before shipping. -
13
GPT-5.1-Codex-Max
OpenAI
GPT-5.1-Codex-Max is the high-capability variant of the GPT-5.1-Codex series designed specifically for software engineering and agentic code workflows. It builds on the base GPT-5.1 architecture with a focus on long-horizon tasks such as full project generation, large-scale refactoring, and autonomous multi-step bug and test management. It introduces adaptive reasoning, meaning the system dynamically allocates more compute for complex problems and less for simpler ones, to improve efficiency and output quality. It also supports tool use (IDE-integrated workflows, version control, CI/CD pipelines) and offers higher fidelity in code review, debugging, and agentic behavior than general-purpose models. Alongside Max, there are lighter variants such as Codex-Mini for cost-sensitive or scale use-cases. The GPT-5.1-Codex family is available in developer previews, including via integrations like GitHub Copilot. -
