We’re excited to introduce Looki for Codex, a Looki Skill that helps developers access Looki APIs through natural-language instructions in Codex. With a quick setup, you can explore APIs, generate integration code, test requests, and create AI-powered workflows—all from Codex.
Before You Start:
Make sure you have:
- A Looki account
- Codex installed and ready to use
- Access to the Looki API platform
Complete Looki API Setup
Before connecting Looki with Codex, make sure your Looki API access is ready. This setup walkthrough is written for macOS.
Step 1: Apply for Access
Go to the Looki API References and click API Keys to request API platform access.
We’ll review your application and enable API access shortly.
Step 2: Create an API Key
Once your access is approved, click Create API Key. Enter a name for your API key and save the generated key. Important: Your API key will only be shown once, so you will not be able to return later and view the same key again. Make sure to save it securely after creation.
Download Looki Skill
Visit the Looki API References page.
Find the Skill section and download the Looki Skill file.
The Skill provides Codex with the necessary instructions to understand and interact with Looki capabilities.
Add the Looki Skill to Codex
Open Codex and provide the downloaded Looki Skill file.
- Drag and drop the Skill file into Codex
- Then ask Codex:
Please read and use this Looki Skill for the following setup. Do not ask me to paste my API key into the conversation.
Codex will read the Skill and begin the setup process.
Enter Your Looki API Information
Codex may open a local setup window.
- If your Mac asks for permission, click Allow or Approve.
- At the first prompt, paste the Looki API Base URL: https://open.looki.ai/api/v1
- Press Return.
- At the second prompt, paste the API key you saved in Step 2. The key will be hidden and will not appear in the Codex conversation.
- Press Return again and wait for Codex to finish.
Codex will check your information and save it securely. You do not need to create or edit any files yourself.
If the setup window does not appear, check whether it opened behind the Codex window.
After the credentials are saved, return to Codex and send:
Use the Looki Skill. Read my credentials from
~/.config/looki/credentials.jsonand call the/meendpoint to verify the connection.
If Codex confirms that your account information was returned without an authentication error, you can move on to using Looki.
Start Building with Looki in Codex
Once Looki is connected to Codex, you can work with Looki using ordinary questions instead of writing every API request yourself. Try prompts such as:
- “What happened today?”
- “Find my moments related to meetings this week.”
- “Show me the photos and videos from this moment.”
Codex can use the Looki Skill to select the relevant endpoint, read the locally stored credentials, make the request, and organize the result into a useful response. You can also ask Codex to generate integration code, test requests, troubleshoot errors, or use Looki data as part of a larger application workflow.
Get Started Today
Looki for Codex brings the Looki API workflow into a natural-language development environment. You can focus on what you want to explore or build instead of manually preparing every request.
Complete your Looki API setup, upload the Looki Skill to your Codex task, verify the connection, and start building.
