how to enable openai-codex/gpt-5.5 @lone jacinth

Assuming you want ChatGPT/Codex subscription OAuth:

openclaw models auth login --provider openai-codex
# headless/VPS:
openclaw models auth login --provider openai-codex --device-code

openclaw config set agents.defaults.model.primary openai-codex/gpt-5.5
openclaw models list --provider openai-codex
openclaw models status

Then start a fresh chat/session (/new or /reset) or switch the current one with:

/model openai-codex/gpt-5.5
#

Small gotchas:

  • Don’t use openclaw login for this — that’s WhatsApp linking.
  • openai-codex/gpt-5.5 = Codex OAuth via the normal PI runner.
  • openai/gpt-5.5 = direct OpenAI API key route.
  • If you use an explicit model allowlist and get “model not allowed”, add it with:
openclaw config set agents.defaults.models '{"openai-codex/gpt-5.5":{}}' --strict-json --merge

Yep — if auth is already done, just set it as the default model:

pnpm openclaw config set agents.defaults.model.primary openai-codex/gpt-5.5
pnpm openclaw models status

If you installed globally, same commands without pnpm are fine.

For the current Discord thread/session, either run:

/model openai-codex/gpt-5.5

or start fresh with /new / /reset, because existing sessions can keep their previous model.
