Codex CLI · regional access
Use Codex in Russia with one API key and no monthly plan
AnyModel connects Codex CLI to available GPT, Claude, Gemini, GLM and Kimi models through one OpenAI-compatible endpoint. You pay from a prepaid AnyModel balance instead of buying a direct ChatGPT or Codex subscription.

Access options
API usage is different from a consumer subscription
A direct Codex or ChatGPT plan and an independent compatible gateway solve different problems. AnyModel is for API-backed coding sessions and model switching, not access to OpenAI consumer products.
| Option | Authentication | Billing | Best fit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Codex through AnyModel | AnyModel API key | Prepaid per token | CLI agents and model switching |
| Direct OpenAI API | OpenAI API key | OpenAI account billing | Teams with direct regional access |
| ChatGPT subscription | OpenAI consumer account | Monthly plan | ChatGPT and included first-party features |

<YOUR_API_KEY>What works from Russia — and what can change
Codex sends requests to the AnyModel endpoint with an AnyModel key. This removes the need to create and bill a separate OpenAI API account, but it does not create an official OpenAI account or include a ChatGPT subscription.
Payment methods are account- and provider-specific. The checkout is the source of truth for cards, local transfers, SBP, crypto and settlement currency; do not rely on a method until it appears there.
Network reachability varies by ISP and deployment environment. Test from the same machine or server that will run Codex, and keep a recoverable git state before allowing an agent to edit files.
Codex in Russia FAQ
Do I receive an official OpenAI or ChatGPT account?
No. You receive an AnyModel API key for an independent OpenAI-compatible gateway. It is not an OpenAI account, Codex subscription or ChatGPT plan.
Which model should I use in Codex?
GPT-5.6 Terra is a practical default, Sol fits the hardest repository-wide tasks, Luna fits focused inexpensive subtasks, and Kimi K3 is an alternative flagship worth testing on your code.
Can I pay in rubles or through SBP?
Only when the current checkout offers that rail for your account. Available methods and settlement currencies depend on the active payment provider.
