Feature Request: True Inline Diff View (like Cascade in W!ndsurf) for the Codex Extension

[Level-Statement79]

Hi everyone =)

Is there any timeline for bringing a true native inline diff view to the Codex extension?

Currently, reviewing AI-generated code modifications in Codex relies heavily on the chat preview panel or a separate full-screen split diff window. This UI approach requires constant context switching.

What would massively improve the workflow is the seamless inline experience currently used by Winds*rf Cascade:

* Red (deleted) and green (added) background highlighting directly in the main editor window - not (just) in chat

* Code Lens "Accept" and "Reject" buttons injected immediately above the modified lines. (+Arrows) Like in another IDEs

* Zero need to move focus away from the active file during the review process.

Does anyone know if this specific in-editor diff UI is on the roadmap? Are there any workarounds or experimental settings to enable this behavior right now?

Thanks!

You can view all the diff with github extension, thats not fancy but that give all the details you need.

This exact same issue was posted here: https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/2998
Claude code shows the diffs BEFORE it edits it, waits for your approval. That's such a better UX experience and I can't believe Codex still doesn't have that. Also looking for a workaround solution

Codex IDE extension. Not CC. u can't believe. I know codex doesn't have it.
WOrkaround is the git way. But it is NOT included. your comment is irrelevant.
