Use your ChatGPT subscription (Codex)
If you already pay for ChatGPT Plus or ChatGPT Pro, you can plug that subscription directly into Clawify and skip per-token billing entirely. Your assistant runs on top of the same models you already pay for, including GPT-5 / GPT-5.5.
Plan requirement
Codex sign-in is available on the Growth and Business plans (BYOK feature).
Why use itβ
| API key | Codex (ChatGPT subscription) | |
|---|---|---|
| Billing | per-token, on top of your ChatGPT subscription | flat monthly subscription only |
| Setup | generate + paste an API key | one-time OAuth sign-in |
| Models available | every model on your OpenAI account | the ChatGPT lineup tied to your subscription |
| Best for | heavy or programmatic usage | normal day-to-day usage of an existing ChatGPT user |
How to connectβ
- Open Clawify β Assistant settings β AI Model tab.
- Scroll to Bring Your Own Key.
- Click the ChatGPT subscription (Codex) row.
- Click Open ChatGPT sign-in. A new tab opens on
auth.openai.com. - Sign in with the same account you use for ChatGPT.
- After accepting, your browser is redirected to a
http://localhost:1455/auth/callback?code=β¦URL. The page will fail to load β that is expected. - Copy the full URL from the address bar (it must include
code=β¦&state=β¦). - Paste it back into the Clawify modal and click Complete sign-in.
- Your agent restarts. The assistant now uses your ChatGPT subscription. Default model becomes GPT-5.5.
Switching the default modelβ
Once connected, the curated model list in Default AI Model shows the ChatGPT-tier models tied to your subscription. Pick whichever one you want to use by default.
Disconnectingβ
In Assistant settings β AI Model β Bring Your Own Key, open the Codex row and click Remove subscription. The OAuth refresh token is revoked, and your assistant falls back to the Clawify-managed AI credits.
Troubleshootingβ
- "State mismatch" / "Invalid code" β the redirect URL was pasted incomplete. Copy the full URL from the address bar (everything starting with
http://localhost:1455/). - Sign-in tab redirects to ChatGPT homepage instead of the callback β you are already signed in to ChatGPT. Sign out, then click Re-open sign-in tab in the modal.
- Browser blocks the popup β allow popups for
clawify.appand try again. - Connected but the assistant still says "no credits" β the agent didn't restart cleanly. Open Assistant settings β AI Model, change the default model, save. The instance restarts and picks up the OAuth tokens.
