Use cases

GPT-5.1-Codex-Max is documented as suited to agentic coding tasks in Codex or Codex-like environments, and OpenAI says it is purpose-built for agentic coding.

It is also documented for PR creation, code review, frontend coding, and Q&A as real-world software engineering tasks it was trained on.

OpenAI’s materials also describe it as trained for autonomous software engineering work more broadly, including long-horizon coding workflows.

The model is additionally described as useful for project-scale refactoring and deep debugging, with support for multi-hour agentic work.

How to use GPT-5.1-Codex-Max API

Install any OpenAI-compatible SDK, point it at api.aimlapi.com/v1, and set the model to openai/gpt-5.1-codex-max.
import requests

r = requests.post(
    "https://api.aimlapi.com/v1/chat/completions",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer " + AIMLAPI_KEY},
    json={
      "model": "openai/gpt-5.1-codex-max",
      "messages": [
        {
          "role": "user",
          "content": "Hello!"
        }
      ]
    },
)
print(r.json())
const r = await fetch("https://api.aimlapi.com/v1/chat/completions", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.AIMLAPI_KEY}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "model": "openai/gpt-5.1-codex-max",
    "messages": [
      {
        "role": "user",
        "content": "Hello!"
      }
    ]
  }),
});
console.log(await r.json());
curl -X POST https://api.aimlapi.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AIMLAPI_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model":"openai/gpt-5.1-codex-max","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello!"}]}'
