What variant of Codex are you using?

VSCode, CLI

What feature would you like to see?

When I am working on some projects that generate some sort of image, for example, a raytracer, I currently need to keep manually taking screenshots of the outputs and putting it back into the codex prompt in order for it to interpret the image. It would be most beneficial if codex could automatically see and read those images without me having to input it in

It'd be nice if this could be done in its CoT like how it works in ChatGPT
