Authenticated Provider CLIs for Windows

Availability

Authenticated Provider CLIs 1.1.0 is available as a TypeWhisper for Windows plugin release. Its current source code is maintained on the repository’s main branch.

Windows Setup

1. Install Codex CLI, Claude Code CLI, or OpenCode CLI and sign in using the CLI itself. OpenCode must list an existing OpenCode Zen login.
2. Open TypeWhisper Settings > Integrations and configure Authenticated Provider CLIs.
3. Refresh the status and select an installation if Windows finds more than one.
4. Wait until the provider is marked Ready. OpenCode also needs at least one model that its current Zen catalog reports as fully free.
5. Choose Codex CLI, Claude Code CLI, or OpenCode Zen as the LLM provider in a workflow.

Only native .exe installations are supported. TypeWhisper rejects signed-out, unsupported, ambiguous, or insufficiently isolated installations instead of running them with reduced safeguards.

Providers and availability

Provider	Executable	When it becomes available
Codex CLI	codex.exe	Installed, signed in, and all required isolation controls are supported
Claude Code CLI	claude.exe	Installed, signed in, and safe non-interactive mode is supported
OpenCode Zen	opencode.exe	Installed, opencode auth list contains OpenCode Zen, all required isolation controls are supported, and at least one current Zen text model is fully free
Antigravity CLI	agy.exe	Status preview only; workflow processing remains disabled

Configuration

• Refresh status checks installed CLIs, versions, login state, signatures, and supported safety controls.
• OpenCode catalog loads opencode/* text models through opencode.exe models opencode --verbose --pure. OpenCode may serve this model metadata from its own cache because the v1.1.0 integration does not force --refresh. Only models whose complete pricing object includes input and output prices and whose every numeric value—including cache and tier pricing—is zero are exposed.
• Currently free Zen models shows how many verified free models are selectable. Free offers can change or end at any time. A failed refresh may keep the last successfully verified list visible, but the add-on never falls back to an unverified or paid model.
• Select installation appears when multiple native installations are found or a previously selected executable is missing.
• Setup guide opens the official setup documentation for the respective CLI.
• Current Zen pricing and privacy terms opens OpenCode’s current terms. The Windows edition does not expose OpenCode model variants or an effort override.

Isolation and privacy

Only the workflow instruction and transcript or selected input text are passed to the provider CLI. Audio, CLI credentials, unrelated TypeWhisper data, tools, project rules, and previous sessions are not included.

Codex runs ephemerally in a read-only sandbox with approvals, tools, web access, project instructions, memories, and multi-agent features disabled. Claude Code runs in safe mode without tools, MCP access, browser access, slash commands, or session persistence. Each request uses an isolated temporary directory plus time and size limits.

OpenCode keeps the existing Zen login in its normal data directory, but TypeWhisper does not read or store the credential. Each request gets temporary configuration, cache, state, and database paths. Project and user configuration, user-defined agents, commands, plugins, MCP servers, sessions, sharing, snapshots, and update checks are disabled, while tool permissions are deny-all. OpenCode must return a strict structured text result and cannot reuse an earlier session.

The provider account still processes the prompt through its cloud service and may be subject to its own plan, usage limits, and data-handling terms. Some free OpenCode Zen models may permit prompts and completions to be used for training. Review the selected model’s current terms, and do not send personal or confidential text unless those terms allow it.
