Provider Codex — scorpiox code

Panoramica

Il provider Codex collega scorpiox code al backend OpenAI Codex tramite autenticazione OAuth Bearer. Si rivolge all'API backend di ChatGPT e supporta streaming, pensiero esteso, uso di strumenti, chiamate a funzioni, visione e aggiornamento automatico dei token.

    # API endpoint

    POST https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/responses

    # Auth header

    Authorization: Bearer <oauth_token>

    # Source file

    impl: scorpiox/libsxnet/sx_provider_codex.c

Token Refresh

Automatic OAuth token rotation via scorpiox-codex-fetchtoken

Autenticazione

Codex utilizza l'autenticazione tramite token OAuth Bearer nell'header Authorization. I token sono gestiti da scorpiox-codex-fetchtoken e possono essere ottenuti da tre sorgenti:

Sorgenti token

Local CODEX_TOKEN_SOURCE=local

Reads the OAuth token from a local file managed by scorpiox-codex-fetchtoken. Default mode — no network calls needed for token acquisition. The token file is stored alongside your scorpiox configuration.

Remote CODEX_TOKEN_SOURCE=remote

Fetches the token from a remote HTTP endpoint configured via CODEX_REMOTE_URL. Default URL: https://token.scorpiox.net/codex. Useful for centralized token management across teams.

SSH CODEX_TOKEN_SOURCE=ssh

Retrieves the token over SSH from a remote machine. Configure via CODEX_SSH_HOST, CODEX_SSH_USER, CODEX_SSH_PASS, and CODEX_SSH_PORT. Ideal for air-gapped or private infrastructure environments.

Configurazione

Tutte le impostazioni Codex sono memorizzate in scorpiox-env.txt nella root del progetto. Esegui scorpiox-config per configurare interattivamente.

Key	Description	Default

Avvio rapido

1. Switch to Codex provider

    # In scorpiox-env.txt

    PROVIDER=codex

    MODEL=gpt-5.3-codex

    CODEX_TOKEN_SOURCE=local

    # Or use scorpiox-config interactively

    $ scorpiox-config

2. Fetch your token

    # Local token (default)

    $ scorpiox-codex-fetchtoken

    # Remote token from team server

    $ CODEX_TOKEN_SOURCE=remote scorpiox-codex-fetchtoken

    # SSH token from bastion host

    $ CODEX_TOKEN_SOURCE=ssh CODEX_SSH_HOST=bastion.internal scorpiox-codex-fetchtoken

3. Start coding

    # Launch scorpiox code with Codex backend

    $ sx

    # Or specify model inline

    $ sx --provider codex --model gpt-5.3-codex-spark

Implementazione sorgente

The Codex provider is implemented as a single-file C module following the scorpiox provider interface pattern:

    // Provider source

    scorpiox/libsxnet/sx_provider_codex.c

    // Token fetcher binary

    scorpiox/scorpiox-codex-fetchtoken.c

    // Provider interface (shared by all providers)

    scorpiox/libsxnet/sx_provider.h

    // Config integration

    scorpiox/libsxutil/sx_config.c → CODEX_TOKEN_SOURCE, MODEL

All providers compile as part of libsxnet and are statically linked into the sx binary. Zero runtime dependencies — the Codex provider uses raw socket HTTP built into scorpiox's networking layer.
