Speeding up agentic workflows with WebSockets in the Responses API
OpenAI detailed how WebSockets and caching in their Responses API reduced latency and overhead in agentic workflows. The Codex agent loop was used as a testbed for these optimizations. Builders can apply similar techniques to improve performance in their own applications. This approach may help reduce costs and improve responsiveness.
Key takeaways
- WebSockets reduced API overhead in agentic workflows.
- Connection-scoped caching improved model latency.
- Techniques tested in Codex agent loop applicable to other apps.
