Use /connect to add models from a GitHub Copilot or ChatGPT subscription. Connected models appear in /model.
Connecting a subscription only adds models. Your Embedder account, team, project, and tools do not change.

​
GitHub Copilot

1

Choose GitHub Copilot

Run /connect and choose GitHub Copilot.
2

Sign in to GitHub

Open the verification URL, enter the displayed code, and approve access.
3

Choose a model

Open /model and select one of the models available to your Copilot account.

​
ChatGPT Codex

1

Choose ChatGPT Pro/Plus

Run /connect and choose ChatGPT Pro/Plus.
2

Sign in

Choose browser sign-in or device-code sign-in and follow the prompts. Use the device-code option if browser sign-in is unavailable.
3

Choose a model

Open /model and select one of the models available to your ChatGPT account.

​
Manage connections

Use /connect to disconnect or reconnect a provider. Credentials are stored on this machine at:
connected-providers.json is local JSON storage, not an operating-system keychain. Restrict access to the Embedder application directory.

​
Pin a model to a project

Copilot and Codex use the <provider>/<model> format:
.embedder/models.json
Project settings override ~/.embedder/models.json. A valid main pin is selected when the project opens.

​
Hide Embedder-hosted models

In /connect, turn off Embedder’s own models to show only subscription and local models. If the current model is removed, choose another model in /model. Features that rely on Embedder-hosted inference are unavailable while this switch is off.

​
Troubleshooting

Port 1455 is already in use. Stop the process using it or choose the Codex device-code method.
GitHub and OpenAI control which models each account can use. Check your subscription and organization policy, then reconnect the provider to refresh the list.

Local models

Connect Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM, llama.cpp, or another OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
