English translation

When I sign in to use it, it is still using the api-injected key.

Cause

Section titled “Cause”

This report describes cc-switch continuing to inject a previous third-party provider's API configuration when Codex signs in to an official account, preventing use through the official account. The issue persisted even after deleting `~/.codex/auth.json` and unsetting several environment variables.

The maintainer's solution was to add and switch to the official provider in preset providers, then complete the sign-in flow once. Afterward, users can switch between official and third-party providers. Another user noted that they could sign out through “File” -- “Sign out”.

Fix

Section titled “Fix”

  1. Add an official provider in cc-switch preset providers, then switch to that official provider.

  2. Sign out in Codex, then reopen it and complete official account sign-in. You can also sign out through “File” -- “Sign out”.

  3. After completing the official sign-in flow once, switch between the official and third-party providers as needed.
