Install Codex
npm install -g
@openai/codex
$ npm install -g @openai/codex added 1 package in 2s $ codex --version codex-cli 0.x.x
Point Codex at Yene AI
Codex uses a
config.toml file,
typically located at
~/.codex/config.toml. Create or edit this file
with the following
configuration:
model_provider = "openrouter" model="~openai/gpt-latest" model_reasoning_effort = "high" [model_providers.openrouter] name = "openrouter" base_url = "https://openrouter.ai/api/v1" env_key = "YENE_AI_API_KEY"
Swap model for any
OpenRouter model id.
Set your Yene AI key
Codex reads the key named in
env_key above, so
export it in your shell
profile (~/.zshrc
or ~/.bashrc):
$ export YENE_AI_API_KEY="your-yene-api-key"
Note: Codex reads the API key
from the environment variable
specified in
env_key (default:
YENE_AI_API_KEY).
Ensure this is set before
starting Codex.
Launch Codex
Run codex in your
project to start. It will now
use your Yene AI key via
OpenRouter.
$ cd ~/projects/my-app $ codex
