Codex Desktop: add ChatGPT-style Read Aloud for responses

Feature request

Please add a first-class Read Aloud feature to Codex Desktop for assistant responses.

Why this is high priority

This is a high-preference accessibility and usability request. ChatGPT already has read-aloud behavior across phone, desktop, and browser experiences, but Codex Desktop does not appear to have the same basic affordance.

Codex produces long explanations, plans, reviews, logs, and implementation summaries. Reading all of that visually is often tiring, especially in long sessions. A read-aloud control would make Codex much easier to use while reviewing code, multitasking, resting eyes, or working in lower-capacity moments.

Requested UX

• Add a “Read aloud” action on assistant messages.
• Support play, pause, resume, and stop.
• Allow reading the latest assistant response without selecting text.
• Ideally support a keyboard shortcut.
• Keep it consistent with the existing ChatGPT read-aloud interaction where possible.

Why this matters

Codex Desktop is not only a coding executor; it is also a reading and review surface. Response audio would make the product more accessible, more ergonomic, and more aligned with the ChatGPT experience users already know.

This feels like a parity gap: if ChatGPT can read responses aloud on mobile, desktop, and web, Codex Desktop should be able to as well.
