||||||
| Why this video matters: it shows the exact sign-in flow and where to click in the Roo Code settings panel. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| Use Codex models in Roo Code **without an OpenAI API key**. Just sign in with the ChatGPT account you already pay for. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| --- | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| If you want the official OpenAI API (API keys, usage-based billing, broader model availability), use the regular OpenAI provider instead: [Using OpenAI With Roo Code](/providers/openai). | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## Quickstart: sign in and run a task | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| 1. Open Roo Code settings (click the gear icon <Codicon name="gear" /> in the Roo Code panel). | ||||||
| 2. In **API Provider**, select **OpenAI – ChatGPT Plus/Pro**. | ||||||

There was a problem hiding this comment. Choose a reason for hiding this commentThe reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more. The Quickstart step says to select OpenAI – ChatGPT Plus/Pro, but this page/provider entry is titled ChatGPT Plus/Pro; this mismatch can make the dropdown choice unclear.
Suggested change
Fix it with Roo Code or mention @roomote and request a fix. |
||||||
| 3. Click **Sign in to OpenAI Codex**. | ||||||
| 4. Finish the sign-in flow in your browser. | ||||||
| 5. Back in Roo Code settings, pick a model from the dropdown. | ||||||
| 6. Start a task. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## What you can't do (and why) | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - **You can't use arbitrary OpenAI API models.** This provider only exposes the models listed in Roo's Codex model catalog. | ||||||
| - **You can't export/migrate your sign-in state with settings export.** OAuth tokens are stored in VS Code SecretStorage, which isn't included in Roo's settings export. | ||||||
| - **You can't sign in if Roo can't bind `localhost:1455`.** The OAuth callback uses a local server; if your machine (or security software) blocks it, the flow can't complete. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## Troubleshooting | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| #### Not authenticated with OpenAI Codex (or Roo asks you to sign in) | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - **Symptom:** Roo fails immediately and tells you to sign in. | ||||||
| - **Cause:** You haven't completed OAuth sign-in, or your stored refresh token was revoked and Roo cleared it. | ||||||
| - **Fix:** In the provider settings panel, click **Sign in to OpenAI Codex** again. | ||||||
| - **Prevention:** Don't delete VS Code extension secrets unless you expect to re-auth. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| #### Port 1455 is already in use during sign-in | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - **Symptom:** Sign-in fails right away and mentions port `1455`. | ||||||
| - **Cause:** Another process is listening on that port. | ||||||
| - **Fix:** Stop the process using `1455`, then retry sign-in. | ||||||
| - **Prevention:** Avoid running other local OAuth callback servers on the same port. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| #### 403 Forbidden or Model not available | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - **Symptom:** Requests fail with access denied. | ||||||
| - **Cause:** Your ChatGPT subscription or organization doesn't have access to that model. | ||||||
| - **Fix:** Pick a different model, or verify your account/org subscription. | ||||||
| - **Prevention:** Treat the model list in the provider settings as the source of truth. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| #### Cost shows as $0 | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - **Symptom:** Roo shows usage but cost is zero. | ||||||
| - **Cause:** This provider is subscription-covered, so Roo intentionally reports cost as $0. | ||||||
| - **Fix:** Nothing to fix. | ||||||
| - **Prevention:** Don't treat $0 as “no tokens consumed”; it's “not billed per token in Roo”. | ||||||
