3 TopicsAnnouncing GPT‑5.2‑Codex in Microsoft Foundry: Enterprise‑Grade AI for Secure Software Engineering
Enterprise developers know the grind: wrestling with legacy code, navigating complex dependency challenges, and waiting on security reviews that stall releases. OpenAI’s GPT‑5.2‑Codex flips that equation and helps engineers ship faster without cutting corners. It’s not just autocomplete; it’s a reasoning engine for real-world software engineering. Generally available starting today through Azure OpenAI in Microsoft Foundry Models, GPT‑5.2‑Codex is built for the realities of enterprise codebases, large repos, evolving requirements, and security constraints that can’t be overlooked. As OpenAI’s most advanced agentic coding model, it brings sustained reasoning, and security-aware assistance directly into the workflows enterprise developers already rely on with Microsoft’s secure and reliable infrastructure. GPT-5.2-Codex at a Glance GPT‑5.2‑Codex is designed for how software gets built in enterprise teams. You start with imperfect inputs including legacy code, partial docs, screenshots, diagrams, and work through multi‑step changes, reviews, and fixes. The model helps keep context, intent, and standards intact across that entire lifecycle, so teams can move faster without sacrificing quality or security. What it enables Work across code and artifacts: Reason over source code alongside screenshots, architecture diagrams, and UI mocks — so implementation stays aligned with design intent. Stay productive in long‑running tasks: Maintain context across migrations, refactors, and investigations, even as requirements evolve. Build and review with security in mind: Get practical support for secure coding patterns, remediation, reviews, and vulnerability analysis — where correctness matters as much as speed. Feature Specs (quick reference) Context window: 400K tokens (approximately 100K lines of code) Supported languages: 50+ including Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, C#, Java, Go, Rust Multimodal inputs: Code, images (UI mocks, diagrams), and natural language API compatibility: Drop-in replacement for existing Codex API calls Use cases where it really pops Legacy modernization with guardrails: Safely migrate and refactor “untouchable” systems by preserving behavior, improving structure, and minimizing regression risk. Large‑scale refactors that don’t lose intent: Execute cross‑module updates and consistency improvements without the typical “one step forward, two steps back” churn. AI‑assisted code review that raises the floor: Catch risky patterns, propose safer alternatives, and improve consistency, especially across large teams and long‑lived codebases. Defensive security workflows at scale: Accelerate vulnerability triage, dependency/path analysis, and remediation when speed matters, but precision matters more. Lower cognitive load in long, multi‑step builds: Keep momentum across multi‑hour sessions: planning, implementing, validating, and iterating with context intact. Pricing Model Input Price/1M Tokens Cached Input Price/1M Tokens Output Price/1M Tokens GPT-5.2-Codex $1.75 $0.175 $14.00 Security Aware by Design, not as an Afterthought For many organizations, AI adoption hinges on one nonnegotiable question: Can this be trusted in security sensitive workflows? GPT-5.2-Codex meaningfully advances the Codex lineage in this area. As models grow more capable, we’ve seen that general reasoning improvements naturally translate into stronger performance in specialized domains — including defensive cybersecurity. With GPT‑5.2‑Codex, this shows up in practical ways: Improved ability to analyze unfamiliar code paths and dependencies Stronger assistance with secure coding patterns and remediation More dependable support during code reviews, vulnerability investigations, and incident response At the same time, Microsoft continues to deploy these capabilities thoughtfully balancing access, safeguards, and platform level controls so enterprises can adopt AI responsibly as capabilities evolve.
