Cliproxyapi Codex Setup

Use when working on a Mac-hosted CLIProxyAPI setup for Codex, especially for local Mac plus Ubuntu usage, ChatGPT Plus OAuth account management, fill-first versus round-robin routing, proxy-url/VPN settings, startup and shutdown, restore/rollback steps, or Ubuntu launcher scripts that inject OPENAI_API_KEY at runtime instead of storing it in auth.json.

CLIProxyAPI Codex Setup

This skill is for maintaining a specific personal setup:

CLIProxyAPI runs on a Mac
local Codex uses the Mac loopback endpoint
Ubuntu Codex uses the Mac LAN endpoint
ChatGPT Plus accounts are stored as local auth files
Ubuntu avoids storing the proxy key in ~/.codex/auth.json

Quick workflow

Read the live setup notes in references/setup-notes.md.
Check the current files under /Users/aodu/workspace/cliproxyapi-local.
When routing behavior matters, verify routing.strategy in config.yaml.
When Codex behavior matters, separate:
- CLIProxyAPI config in config.yaml
- Codex transport config in ~/.codex/config.toml
- runtime key injection versus auth.json
- config-parse problems versus runtime /v1/responses compatibility problems
For Ubuntu, prefer the launcher script flow over writing the proxy key into shared config files.

What this skill should help with

explain how local Mac and Ubuntu clients should connect
verify whether one or more ChatGPT Plus accounts are loaded
switch between round-robin and fill-first
preserve cache-friendlier routing with fill-first
manage the proxy-url setting for local VPN or Clash-style proxies
create or update launcher scripts that export OPENAI_API_KEY
correct common Codex config mistakes such as missing name or wrong wire_api
document or restore the current setup after edits
