Codex with ChatGPT
Codex with ChatGPT is a bridge that connects the ChatGPT web application to local Codex coding sessions for planning and review without requiring API keys.
Codex with ChatGPT moves the planning and review tasks of a coding session to the ChatGPT web interface, while keeping code execution strictly within the local Codex environment. It connects the two through a secure, read-only Model Context Protocol (MCP) bridge, allowing ChatGPT to access specific files on demand. The repository is never uploaded to ChatGPT; instead, the model reads only the lines it requires via OAuth-protected tools. This setup supports developers who want to utilize their existing ChatGPT subscriptions for agent logic without burning API credits. It secures sensitive files by blocking access to credentials and .env files by default, while enforcing path containment to prevent unauthorized file access.
