Quick daily skim for builders. If you're slammed, just read the three lines, go "huh, that's a thing now," and get back to work. No homework.
Today's shape: your AI account is becoming the workstation — you build inside it, choose cheaper models to run through it, and now you can lock it down.
① OpenAI ships Codex Sites
At its "Intelligence at Work" event, OpenAI launched Sites for Codex. You describe an app in plain language — a dashboard, a tracker, an internal portal — and Codex builds the full web app, deploys it to OpenAI-managed hosting, and hands back a shareable URL with Sign in with ChatGPT baked in. It also shipped six role-specific Codex plugins. Sites is in preview for ChatGPT Business and Enterprise.
Worth noting: Codex now has over 5 million weekly users, and roughly 20% aren't developers — that segment is growing ~3× faster than the developer side. The "describe it and ship it" loop is clearly pulling in non-engineers.

② Alibaba's Qwen3.7-Plus — a cheap multimodal GUI agent
Alibaba launched Qwen3.7-Plus on its Bailian platform. It reads images and video, reasons, calls tools, and leads the open-API GUI-agent field (ScreenSpot Pro 79.0) — meaning it clicks through on-screen interfaces to finish tasks. It runs about 60% cheaper than the prior text-only Qwen3.7-Max, at 0.4 / 1.6 dollars per 1M tokens. It's API-only and proprietary.
If you've got low-stakes vision work, this is a cheap node to route it through — just test it on Bailian before you commit, since it's closed.
③ ChatGPT adds Active Sessions
OpenAI added Active Sessions to ChatGPT. You can review every session tied to your account — device, location, sign-in time, trusted status — and sign out of individual sessions or all of them at once, from Settings → Security.
Small feature, but a real one. As more of your work consolidates into one AI account (see stories ① and ②), that account becomes worth protecting. Worth a 30-second audit of your own logins.

Three signals, one shape: build, choose, secure. Audit the account, not just the code.
