Claude Code without Claude

October 2, 2026

Claude has started screwing everyone over mass-banning VPN users. I got caught in it too.

So I bought a Codex subscription. OpenAI must be getting drunk celebrating all the new customers. I installed CLIProxyAPI and launched the same old Claude Code like this:

#!/bin/bash -e
export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="https://mop.corp.ermak.dev/llm"
export CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_GATEWAY_MODEL_DISCOVERY=1
export ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
export NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0
export CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_CONTEXT_TOKENS=1000000

exec claude --dangerously-skip-permissions "$@"

I have not noticed much difference between gpt-6-sol and glm-5.3. GPT is painfully slow, though. Looks like everyone has piled onto it.
