Is using Codex through Pi allowed? I've been a Claude user, but a lot of the things mentioned bother me as well. I see it constantly make mistakes due to (simple) shell aliases, etc..
Not sure I'll actually switch but I'm curious. I've thought about trying to build my own harness and use Codex usage to work through it without spending a fortune on credits.

Yes, you can use your Codex subscription with Pi without any limitations. It supports Codex out of the box. You may need to install extensions for things like tracking usage and limit resets though. Pi only provides basic Codex integration.

Yes. You can and it's easy to test. I'd also encourage you to try local models with it as well.
Pi/opencode apparently make 10% already of all traffic already:

This, IMO, is one big selling point of Codex for me. The are much more accepting of usage outside of the Codex harness, and make it trivial to set up.

Yes and no. Any harness can use the subscription but must go through `claude -p` mode, which is more limited.

Why do you need to use claude to use a codex subscription with pi?

He assumed the original commenter meant claude, because Anthropic's the only provider that imposes the strict limitations on subscription use.

Yes, it is allowed and supported normally by pi and others.
But OpenAI's subscription has seemingly always been available to use in other harnesses without trouble.
