Developers using Codex Desktop often face crashes that generate pending dumps, which are difficult to debug with existing tools. Build a lightweight desktop application that parses and visualizes these dumps, highlighting relevant code segments and suggesting fixes. Sell it to AI developers who rely on Codex for their workflows. Start with a basic dump parser and expand with integrations for popular IDEs. The main risk is competing with existing general-purpose debugging tools.
