Models & reasoning effort

Codex runs on your own OpenAI access. In the Workbench you pick the model and the reasoning effort per agent — lower for quick edits, higher for hard problems — the same knobs you’d set on the CLI, surfaced where you route work. Keep credentials local.

Configure in Avibe

  1. Enable Codex on the setup wizard’s Choose your AI assistants screen, or later in Settings > Backends.
  2. Confirm the codex CLI path on its card in Settings > Backends.
  3. Choose the working directory: open a project in the Workbench, or set a group’s Working Directory.
  4. Route one or more chat groups or direct messages to an Agent on Codex in Settings > Messaging Platforms > Groups or Direct Messages.

Best for

Quick experiments and prototypes, and tasks where you want to dial reasoning effort up or down. Route your #prototypes or experiment channels here — see Thread sessions for routing.

Usage notes

  • Keep OpenAI credentials local.
  • Use one chat thread per task.
  • Keep large tasks scoped with clear acceptance criteria.
