Codex Truly

Gives ChatGPT/Codex-subscription models the context window the backend actually accepts instead of the one its catalog advertises. Measured live on 2026-10-14: gpt-6.1-sol advertises 500K, caps at 872K and accepts 919,956 input tokens, while the -900k opt-in variant had silently stopped working because Hermes only raises a legacy 272K advertisement. The plugin reads the live catalog, writes one scoped model_overrides.<provider>.<model_id>.context_window entry per model (a documented step of context resolution, so no core patch), and ships a probe that bisects the API for the true ceiling because the refusal is a late SSE event, not an HTTP error. It also selects core's Codex-backed image provider so image_generate runs on the subscription with no OPENAI_API_KEY.

Good to know before installing

Uses the profile's Codex sign-in through Hermes's credentialed_provider_request (requires_auth: [openai-codex]); the plugin never reads auth.json and never holds a token, and network calls go only to chatgpt.com. Its only writes are scoped model_overrides entries and image_gen.provider (only when unset), through Hermes's atomic config writers; revert removes exactly what it wrote. No telemetry, no background processes, no shell commands, no self-updater. probe spends subscription quota (refused requests are free, accepted ones bill) and is never run automatically. Disclosure — uses the profile's Codex sign-in only through Hermes's credentialed_provider_request (requires_auth: openai-codex) and calls chatgpt.com only; its CLI and the model-callable codex_truly tool write scoped model_overrides context_window entries and image_gen.provider (only when unset) to config.yaml with no approval prompt, and `probe` sends large padding requests that spend subscription quota.

How to install

  1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.
    hermes plugins install codex-truly
  2. Said no? Turn it on later:
    hermes plugins enable codex-truly
  3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see Full setup & settings. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide (opens in a new tab).
