How to give each pet agent a DeepSeek or GLM model via OpenCodex with Open Pet Office

Route third-party models into Codex and pick a different model for each pet in the team.

Short answer: Install the optional OpenCodex from https://github.com/lidge-jun/opencodex; then add a DeepSeek or GLM provider in OpenCodex by following the OpenCodex documentation; open Open Pet Office and check that the new model appears in the model list. All steps.

Credentials. Provider API keys for DeepSeek, GLM, or other services must stay out of screenshots, logs, and issue reports, even though the app masks them on the desktop.

Who it is forA developer who wants cheaper or different models for some agents while keeping Codex as the session entry point.

The problemCodex by default uses OpenAI models, and a team may want a mix of providers for different roles.

The outcomeThird-party models such as DeepSeek or GLM appear in the Codex model list and can be assigned to individual pets.

What you need first

  • Windows 10 or 11 (the README says macOS and Linux are not yet supported)
  • Codex CLI 0.155 or later, installed and signed in on the same machine
  • The portable build `Pet-Office-*-portable.exe` from the GitHub Releases page

Steps

  1. Install the optional OpenCodex from https://github.com/lidge-jun/opencodex.
  2. Add a DeepSeek or GLM provider in OpenCodex by following the OpenCodex documentation. (inferred, check the README)
  3. Open Open Pet Office and check that the new model appears in the model list.
  4. Select a different model for each worker pet, then keep the supervisor on the model you trust for planning.
  5. Check the model quota display, which shows a provider balance only when the provider exposes it.

Prompt for your agent

For the Open-Pet-Office repo, configure OpenCodex with a DeepSeek or GLM provider, then select that model for one worker pet in <project name>. Report the chosen model name, and verify it appears in the pet's model selector.

Caveat. The README gives no OpenCodex setup steps beyond linking to its repo, so the provider configuration must follow OpenCodex's own documentation.
