# What you can use with a ChatGPT subscription

> Every ChatGPT plan from Free up includes Codex, with usage shared in one five-hour window. Tools that run the Codex CLI with your ChatGPT login reuse that allowance. Some tools sign in with a ChatGPT account directly without being part of the plan.

## Part of the plan (2)

No extra bill, it is what you are paying for.

- [ChatGPT Desktop](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/chatgpt-desktop) (Included in your ChatGPT plan): OpenAI's desktop app with Chat, Work and Codex views. Codex runs parallel threads in worktrees, with scheduled tasks and Computer Use, on a ChatGPT login or an API key.
- [Codex CLI](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/codex-cli) (Included in your ChatGPT plan): OpenAI's open source terminal agent. Signs in with a ChatGPT account and shares the plan's usage window, or bills an API key at token prices.

## Signs in with it (12)

Separate products that accept this account for model access.

- [Amp](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/amp) (Signs in with your ChatGPT plan): Amp Frontier Corporation's terminal agent. Low, medium, high and ultra modes pick the model per task, subagents run in parallel, orbs run threads on remote machines.

- [dmux](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/dmux) (Signs in with your ChatGPT plan): FormKit's open source tmux pane manager. Each pane gets its own git worktree and branch, launches the agents you pick, and merges or opens a pull request from the pane menu.
- [fx](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/fx) (Signs in with your ChatGPT plan): Vercel Labs' coding agent harness written in Zig, built for research and for embedding in larger systems. A 6 MB CLI closer to a Unix shell than a terminal IDE.

- [OpenCode](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/opencode) (Signs in with your ChatGPT plan): Open source terminal coding agent from Anomaly, with a desktop app in beta and a VS Code extension. Works with any provider through your own keys, plus the hosted Zen and Go plans.
- [Pi](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/pi) (Signs in with your ChatGPT plan): Minimal terminal coding harness from Mario Zechner, now maintained by Earendil. Four built in tools, tree structured sessions, and TypeScript extensions for everything else.
- [Roo Code](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/roo-code) (Signs in with your ChatGPT plan): Open source VS Code agent forked from Cline, with modes, an orchestrator that delegates subtasks, checkpoints and an MCP marketplace. The extension was shut down on May 15, 2026.
- [Visual Studio Code](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/vscode) (Signs in with your ChatGPT plan): Microsoft's free editor. Agent mode, chat and inline suggestions come from GitHub Copilot, and Claude Code, Codex, Cline and other agents install as extensions.
- [Xcode](https://whichcoding.tools/tools/xcode) (Signs in with your ChatGPT plan): Apple's IDE for its platforms. Since 26.3 the coding assistant runs Claude Agent and Codex inside Xcode, with ChatGPT, Claude or any Chat Completions provider for chat.

## Runs a tool on this plan (20)
