## Definition

**Threads** are individual conversations with your agent in OpenAI's Codex app, where each thread is one chat-based exchange; related threads are grouped into **workspaces** [^LfPNaoYMaRY@136][^LfPNaoYMaRY@148].

In this channel's material, **Threads** refers to individual conversations with your agent inside OpenAI's **Codex app** — the graphical command center for managing agents that is deliberately neither a terminal nor an IDE [^LfPNaoYMaRY@136][^LfPNaoYMaRY@102][^LfPNaoYMaRY@124].Threads are one layer in the app's organization model. **Workspaces** group related threads — like folders, but able to hold multiple repos in one workspace [^LfPNaoYMaRY@148]. The rule of thumb from the walkthrough: *workspaces organize projects; threads organize conversations* [^LfPNaoYMaRY@136].- **Threads = individual conversations with your agent** [^LfPNaoYMaRY@136]- Threads live inside **workspaces**, which group related threads across repos [^LfPNaoYMaRY@148]- The Codex app is a **command center for agents**, not a terminal or IDE [^LfPNaoYMaRY@102][^LfPNaoYMaRY@124]- The app is in **early access**; features may evolve quickly [^LfPNaoYMaRY@13]
