Setup for GPT models
Use this setup with the models listed under GPT below.
- 11 · ~/.codex/config.tomltoml
model = "gpt-6-luna" model_provider = "saygm" [model_providers.saygm] name = "SayGM" base_url = "https://api.saygm.com/v1" env_key = "SAYGM_API_KEY" wire_api = "responses" - 22 · Set the key, then runbash
export SAYGM_API_KEY="<YOUR_SAYGM_KEY>" codex
To run another model, start Codex with codex -m gpt-6-astra, or change model in config.toml.
First request
- 1Send a first requestbash
codex exec "say gm"
Troubleshooting
- Every command fails at startup with `wire_api = "chat"` is no longer supported.
- Codex no longer accepts that setting. Set wire_api = "responses" in the [model_providers.saygm] table.
- Codex asks you to sign in with ChatGPT.
- Check that model_provider = "saygm" sits at the top of config.toml, above every table, and that requires_openai_auth is not set.
- 401 Unauthorized.
- Codex reads the key from SAYGM_API_KEY in the shell that runs it. Export it there, or add it to your shell profile.
- Tools or reasoning behave oddly on a model.
- Codex tunes itself from its own list of OpenAI model ids. Use a real OpenAI id such as gpt-6-luna.
Models you can use with Codex CLI
Codex is built for OpenAI's models, so it runs SayGM's GPT models.

About Codex CLI
Codex CLI is OpenAI's open-source coding agent for the terminal. It reads your project, proposes and applies edits, and runs commands in a sandbox you control. Developers use it for hands-on coding sessions and for scripted, non-interactive runs with codex exec.
