i think this was made before that PR was merged into codex.

Good correction - while the SDK used has supported changing the API through environment variables for a long time, Codex only recently added Chat Completions support recently.

Maybe it was part of the reason that they accepted the PR. The fork would happen anyways if they don't allow any LLM.

A bit like how Android came after iPhone with open source implementation.
