# OpenAI DevDay 2026 Recap for Developers

## Retrieval answer

InfoQ reports that OpenAI announced several developer updates at DevDay 2026.

InfoQ reports that OpenAI announced several developer updates at DevDay 2026. They include GPT-6.1 Sol, computer use in the Agents API, cloud-based Codex environments, a Decisions API, and additional ChatGPT plugin capabilities.

The Agents API can now operate software through graphical interfaces and includes multi-agent capabilities from Codex, tool search, tool calling, and context compaction, according to the report. OpenAI manages the underlying execution infrastructure. InfoQ says the functionality is available through the API, Codex, and ChatGPT Work for selected plans.

GPT-6.1 Sol is aimed at coding, computer use, and professional tasks. OpenAI says it approaches GPT-6 Astra on several evaluations while carrying one-fifth of Astra's standard input and output token prices; cached input is priced at $0.10 per million tokens. Sol is available in the API, ChatGPT Work, and Codex. Codex also received cloud environments, voice input in its CLI, and an /agents interface. The source does not establish full plan eligibility, regional availability, usage limits, or the methodology behind the model comparisons.
