Summary
According to a post on X by @OpenAIDevs, OpenAI says developers can now connect multiple local computers to the same dot and choose which machine handles a task. The post gives two examples: building and testing an app on a dedicated machine, and testing an Xcode change on a second Mac and sending back screenshots. The new capability lets work be spread across a developer's own computers instead of running everything on one laptop.

Why it matters
For developers using coding agents, this means tasks can run on other machines they own, so their main laptop is not tied up. Teams building Apple apps may find the second-Mac Xcode workflow the most relevant example. Watch for OpenAI's own documentation on how the setup works and how widely the feature is available.
