## Inside Codex After Dark

A determined little robot, an oversized wrench, and one very evasive bug. Codex's midnight workshop glows in cyan and lime as the pixel-art scene parts in two.

### On your Mac

This effect does not need Screen Recording permission. It draws over your desktop as your MacBook lid moves.
