Codex is OpenAI’s open-source CLI coding agent. Route your Codex traffic through Edgee to gain full observability over every coding session and access all LLM providers through a single endpoint.

​
Quickstart with the Edgee CLI

The fastest way to get started — no config files to edit: 
# Install the Edgee CLI
curl -fsSL https://install.edgee.ai | bash

# Authenticate and configure Codex automatically
edgee init

# Launch Codex through Edgee
edgee launch codex
That’s it. See the CLI quickstart for more details.

​
Manual Configuration

To use Edgee with Codex manually, update your Codex configuration file at ~/.codex/config.toml with the following: 
model_provider = "edgee"

[model_providers.edgee]
name = "EDGEE"
base_url = "https://api.edgee.ai/v1"
http_headers = { "x-edgee-api-key" = "<YOUR_EDGEE_API_KEY>" }
wire_api = "responses"
Replace <YOUR_EDGEE_API_KEY> with your actual Edgee API key from the Edgee Console.

​
Usage

Once configured, Codex will automatically route all requests through Edgee. You can use Codex normally: 
# Start an interactive session
codex

# Ask a question directly
codex "How do I implement a binary search tree in Python?"

# Run in full-auto mode
codex --approval-mode full-auto "Refactor this module to use async/await"
