Codex CLI 0.163 lets you grab the wheel while the agent is still talking, which is exactly when it reaches for the wrong file.
Steering a reply mid-flight sounds minor until you add up the minutes spent watching an agent finish editing the wrong file. A post in r/CodexAutomation reports that stable 0.163.0 shipped on October 15 with immediate follow-up steering, so a bad turn can now be corrected the moment it drifts. Prototypers and infra engineers who live in the terminal should update today; frontend-heavy teams will find the model's UI weaknesses untouched by a better brake pedal.

Felt very strong on real project work, handled complex development well, seemed more reliable than Claude Code for them, and let them work for hours without feeling blocked.Paraphrased · community.openai.com
