Frequently Asked Questions

  • How does GPT 5.2 Codex improve over GPT-5.1 codex?

    It incorporates the GPT-5.2 generation's advances in reasoning and instruction following, translating to better code quality and more reliable autonomous task completion.

  • What context window does GPT 5.2 Codex support?

    400K tokens, enabling comprehensive codebase analysis.

  • Can GPT 5.2 Codex run tests and verify its own code?

    Yes. It operates in sandboxed environments where it can execute code, run tests, and iterate on solutions.

  • How does AI Gateway handle authentication for GPT 5.2 Codex?

    AI Gateway accepts a single API key or OIDC token for all requests. You don't embed OpenAI credentials in your application; AI Gateway routes and authenticates on your behalf.

  • When should I use an earlier codex model instead?

    When cost is a primary concern and the task doesn't require GPT-5.2 generation improvements. Codex mini variants handle routine tasks at a fraction of the cost.

  • What are typical latency characteristics?
