OpenAI flags sub2api resharing as fraud, keeps OSS sign-in supported

We've investigated a few messages about codex usage limits being different. That's not something we change without engaging the community and being transparent. What we did see is that when talking to affected users many were using sub2api. Converting a subscription into api traffic to then re-serve or share across many users is not something we support and this type of usage gets flagged by our fraud-prevention systems. You are completely fine if you use your subscription through Sign in With ChatGPT, either through the official clients or through one of the many OSS clients (Pi, OpenCode, ...) that support signing in with your account and using your included usage.

Why it matters

If you build or run tools that reuse a ChatGPT subscription, resharing it as API traffic via sub2api gets flagged as fraud. Sign-in with ChatGPT in official or OSS clients such as Pi and OpenCode remains supported.
