Codex’s reusable cloud environments can preserve configuration across tasks instead of requiring a fresh setup every time. That is useful when moving between a MacBook and a headless Mac mini or handing off a small coding experiment.

Action: try one disposable Flask repository and measure how easily a later session resumes. Keep production credentials out of the test.
