Codex CLI

!!! danger "Third-Party Scaffolding — Privacy & Security Warning" Third-party scaffoldings may be serving your data outside your environment. For privacy and cybersecurity refusal optimization, use CAI to obtain the best performance.

Codex CLI is OpenAI's open-source terminal-based AI coding agent. Because it uses the OpenAI API format natively, it can connect directly to the Alias API without any proxy.

!!! warning "Support Disclaimer" Alias Robotics does not provide support for developments or integrations related to Codex CLI. This page documents API compatibility only. Alias simply allows usage of the Alias API through your preferred scaffolding.

Setup

1. Get your Alias API Key

An ALIAS_API_KEY (format: sk-...) can be obtained from either of the following:

CAI PRO — full cybersecurity AI platform with access to alias1 and other models.
Alias LLMs — acquire alias2-mini and other Alias language models directly.

2. Install Codex CLI

npm install -g @openai/codex

3. Configure environment variables

export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-your-alias-api-key-here"
export OPENAI_BASE_URL="https://api.aliasrobotics.com:666/"

To persist these, add them to your shell profile (~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc, etc.):

echo 'export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-your-alias-api-key-here"' >> ~/.zshrc
echo 'export OPENAI_BASE_URL="https://api.aliasrobotics.com:666/"' >> ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc

4. Run Codex with an Alias model

codex --model alias1

Or set the model inline per session:

OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-your-alias-api-key-here" \
OPENAI_BASE_URL="https://api.aliasrobotics.com:666/" \
codex --model alias1

Notes

The Alias API is fully OpenAI-compatible — no additional configuration is required beyond pointing the base URL and API key.
Use alias1 for best cybersecurity performance, or alias0 for a faster, lighter alternative.
Token usage and billing appear in your Alias account dashboard.
