OpenAI CLI

OpenAI Codex CLI in Your Browser.

The OpenAI coding agent — running in a cloud workspace. Bring your OpenAI key. No local setup. Start in ~2 seconds.

The Problem

The Codex CLI needs Node.js installed, API keys configured per machine, and is stuck on your local machine. You can't run it on your phone, and keys can leak into shell history.

The Sandpods Way

Sandpods pre-installs Codex CLI and injects your OpenAI API key securely. Start a workspace from any device — phone, iPad, or shared machine — in about 2 seconds.

What you get

OpenAI key injected automatically

Add your OpenAI API key once in Sandpods Settings. It's encrypted and available in every Codex workspace — no per-machine config.

Works cross-device

Launch from your phone, a borrowed laptop, or your IDE. The sandbox keeps running even when you close the tab.

Full environment included

Node.js 22, npm, pnpm, Bun, git, GitHub CLI — everything Codex needs to run tests and push code.

Safe API keys

Your OpenAI key is hidden from the Codex agent context. No accidental leaks into chat history.

Live preview URLs

Run a dev server and get a public HTTPS link to share. Perfect for reviewing agent-built UIs.

170+ model providers

Not just OpenAI — add any OpenRouter key and point Codex at any model. Zero per-workspace configuration.
