Add Opennan to your AI app
One install gives your AI every Opennan tool: video, images, chat, voice, music, sound effects, 3D, captions and dubbing. Pick your app and follow the steps.
https:/Works in the Codex CLI, the Codex app and the Codex IDE extension: they share ~/.codex/config.toml. If the app or IDE does not see OPENNAN_KEY, use the config.toml option with your key in it. Codex asks before each tool call: approve it to go on.
Get an API key
Create a key in the console. It starts with sk- and uses the same balance as the website.
