The Codex Memory Feature
Codex features a highly useful 'memory' capability that recognizes your personal context, such as identifying who sent an important email or summarizing Slack conversations relevant only to you.
Alternatives to Plugins
If you can't find an official plugin for a specific task, building a custom skill through chat is the fastest way to 'teach' the AI to handle your repetitive tasks.
Advantages of the Expo Plugin
For app developers, the Expo plugin is incredibly useful as it allows you to view a 'mobile app preview' directly within the Codex interface.

- Type the main command to define your new skill using the format: 'I want to create a new skill that does [state your task]'.
