I just want the codex models in the API, I won’t touch them until then.
And before someone says it, I do happen to have my own codex like environment complete with development containers, browser, github integration, etc.
And I'm happy to pay a mint for access to the best models.
They've said it's coming:
>For developers using Codex CLI via API key, we plan to make GPT‑5-Codex available in the API soon.
I saw that, but soon doesn’t inspire confidence, and is easy to overlook if they don’t. They didn’t with the previous Codex model.
