## Auth endpoints (v2)
The v2 JSON-RPC auth/account surface exposes request/response methods plus server-initiated notifications (no `id`). Use these to determine auth state, start or cancel logins, logout, and inspect ChatGPT rate limits.
### Quick reference
- `account/read` — fetch current account info; optionally refresh tokens.
- `account/login/start` — begin login (`apiKey` or `chatgpt`).
- `account/login/completed` (notify) — emitted when a login attempt finishes (success or error).
- `account/login/cancel` — cancel a pending ChatGPT login by `loginId`.
- `account/logout` — sign out; triggers `account/updated`.
- `account/updated` (notify) — emitted whenever auth mode changes (`authMode`: `apikey`, `chatgpt`, or `null`).
- `account/rateLimits/read` — fetch ChatGPT rate limits; updates arrive via `account/rateLimits/updated` (notify).
### 1) Check auth state
Request:
```json
{ "method": "account/read", "id": 1, "params": { "refreshToken": false } }
```
Response examples:
```json
{ "id": 1, "result": { "account": null, "requiresOpenaiAuth": false } } // no auth needed
{ "id": 1, "result": { "account": null, "requiresOpenaiAuth": true } } // auth needed
{ "id": 1, "result": { "account": { "type": "apiKey" }, "requiresOpenaiAuth": true } }
{ "id": 1, "result": { "account": { "type": "chatgpt", "email": "user@example.com", "planType": "pro" }, "requiresOpenaiAuth": true } }
```
Field notes:
- `refreshToken` (bool): set `true` to force a token refresh.
- `requiresOpenaiAuth` reflects the active provider; when `false`, Codex can run without OpenAI credentials.
### 2) Log in with an API key
1. Send:
```json
{ "method": "account/login/start", "id": 2, "params": { "type": "apiKey", "apiKey": "sk-…" } }
```
2. Expect:
```json
{ "id": 2, "result": { "type": "apiKey" } }
```
3. Notifications:
```json
{ "method": "account/login/completed", "params": { "loginId": null, "success": true, "error": null } }
{ "method": "account/updated", "params": { "authMode": "apikey" } }
```
### 3) Log in with ChatGPT (browser flow)
1. Start:
```json
{ "method": "account/login/start", "id": 3, "params": { "type": "chatgpt" } }
{ "id": 3, "result": { "type": "chatgpt", "loginId": "<uuid>", "authUrl": "https://chatgpt.com/…&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A<port>%2Fauth%2Fcallback" } }
```
2. Open `authUrl` in a browser; the app-server hosts the local callback.
3. Wait for notifications:
```json
{ "method": "account/login/completed", "params": { "loginId": "<uuid>", "success": true, "error": null } }
{ "method": "account/updated", "params": { "authMode": "chatgpt" } }
```
### 4) Cancel a ChatGPT login
```json
{ "method": "account/login/cancel", "id": 4, "params": { "loginId": "<uuid>" } }
{ "method": "account/login/completed", "params": { "loginId": "<uuid>", "success": false, "error": "…" } }
```
### 5) Logout
```json
{ "method": "account/logout", "id": 5 }
{ "id": 5, "result": {} }
{ "method": "account/updated", "params": { "authMode": null } }
```
### 6) Rate limits (ChatGPT)
```json
{ "method": "account/rateLimits/read", "id": 6 }
{ "id": 6, "result": { "rateLimits": { "primary": { "usedPercent": 25, "windowDurationMins": 15, "resetsAt": 1730947200 }, "secondary": null } } }
{ "method": "account/rateLimits/updated", "params": { "rateLimits": { … } } }
```
Field notes:
- `usedPercent` is current usage within the OpenAI quota window.
- `windowDurationMins` is the quota window length.
- `resetsAt` is a Unix timestamp (seconds) for the next reset.
### Dev notes
- `codex generate-ts --out <dir>` emits v2 typings under `v2/`.
- See [“Authentication and authorization” in the config docs](../../docs/config.md#authentication-and-authorization) for configuration knobs.

## Auth helpers
For ChatGPT or APIkey based auth flows, the server exposes helpers:
- `loginApiKey { apiKey }`
- `loginChatGpt` → returns `{ loginId, authUrl }`; browser completes flow; then `loginChatGptComplete` notification follows
- `cancelLoginChatGpt { loginId }`, `logoutChatGpt`, `getAuthStatus { includeToken?, refreshToken? }`
For the complete request/response shapes and flow examples, see the [“Auth endpoints (v2)” section in the appserver README](../app-server/README.md#auth-endpoints-v2).
