Codex with ChatGPT is a Codex skill that routes planning and code review to ChatGPT's web interface while keeping execution authority in Codex.
The project addresses the problem of wasted ChatGPT Plus subscription quota alongside scarce Codex API token consumption. It moves the cognitive work—planning and review—to the ChatGPT web app you already pay for, leaving Codex to handle only code execution. The approach uses a read-only Model Context Protocol bridge protected by OAuth, allowing ChatGPT to inspect only the specific lines of code it needs from your current workspace without uploading your repository or requiring API keys and reverse proxies.
Developers should adopt this tool if they hold a ChatGPT Plus or Pro subscription and want to preserve Codex API quota for actual coding work rather than planning. It suits projects where you already use Codex as a coding agent and have idle ChatGPT web quota. The tool requires no terminal knowledge or manual configuration—installation is a single copy operation, and setup happens through natural language commands to Codex itself, with automatic daily version checks and self-updates.
The project maintains a straightforward installation model where users paste a setup instruction into their coding agent and receive automatic configuration. The skill checks for updates daily and applies them without user intervention, reducing friction for keeping the tool current.
