Feature request: expose Chrome tab group management in Codex Chrome plugin

Open 💬 0 comments Opened Jun 18, 2026 by nischneiderreply

What variant of Codex are you using?

App, CLI

What feature would you like to see?

Please expose Chrome tab group management through the Codex Chrome plugin / Codex Chrome Extension API.

Use case

Codex can currently list and claim tabs, and openTabs() includes a tabGroup field, but Codex cannot create, rename, color, collapse, or move tabs into Chrome tab groups.

For workflows with many research/dev/admin tabs, I’d like Codex to organize tabs by task, e.g.:

  • Salesforce setup
  • Documentation
  • GitHub issues
  • Local app testing

Requested capability

Expose APIs for:

  • create tab group
  • move one or more tabs into a group
  • rename group
  • set group color
  • collapse/expand group
  • optionally close/archive a whole group

Why this matters

Codex already manages browser tabs, but without tab group control the browser becomes hard to scan during longer workflows.
