View answersFrequently asked questions
Where should I start?
Start with the installation guide and current release status. Client installers are not yet released; read the guide or get Skills instruction packages first. Once an official installer is available, check its system requirements, install the Assistant, connect your account and check Codex and model status.
Go to installationIs setup the same on Windows and Mac?
The installation steps differ by platform. Client installers are not yet released. When an official installer is available, check its system, architecture and version requirements. On Windows, follow the installer guide; on Mac, install the Assistant using the PKG, then prepare or select Codex. Installing the Assistant and preparing Codex are separate steps.
Read the setup guideWhere can I find my account, balance and orders?
Sign in to this site and open My account to view your CNY balance and total usage. A failed balance query is never shown as zero. Orders, profiles and notifications will appear when their services are available.
Open my profileWhy has my credit not arrived after payment?
Check that you signed in with the purchasing account. Payment confirmed, processing and credited are different states. A failed query does not mean payment failed. Web orders are not yet available; keep your order number and payment record and contact your service provider to confirm the original order before taking another action.
Should I download one skill or the bundle, and is it free?
Choose an individual package for one task or the bundle to prepare multiple Skills. Skills instruction packages are free to download; their availability is separate from Codex Assistant client releases. Copy the complete instructions and send them with the downloaded file to Codex on macOS. Model and external tool charges depend on the services used.
Browse skillsWhat do I do after downloading a skill?
Find the installer in your downloads, copy its setup instructions and send both to Codex on macOS. After installation, open the project's Chinese guide “使用说明|先从这里开始”, replace placeholders with your actual task and provide your materials. Installation prepares the project; results are created after you submit a real task.
Can I generate images on the website yet?
Text-to-image is available on the web, creating one image per request. Reference images and concurrent generation are not supported. Sign in, confirm model authorization and get a quote. Check the current workspace for dimensions and charges. If the result is unknown, check the original task before submitting again.
Go to text-to-imageHow many images can I create? Are references or concurrent requests supported?
Each request currently creates one image. Reference images and concurrent generation are not supported. Check the workspace for available models, dimensions and CNY quotes. Confirm the original task’s result before starting another task.
What can Video Studio do now?
Prepare creative requirements in the video remix workspace. Uploads, drafts and generation depend on available services. Unavailable actions do not simulate saved data, successful tasks or charges.
Prepare a video briefHow should I prepare videos, and are assets included in exports?
Supported formats, sizes, durations and counts depend on the specifications actually available in the workspace. A requirements document does not replace original media. Keep images, videos, audio and reference files separately and provide them as requested. Uploads and document parsing depend on available services.
Do saved drafts survive a refresh or navigation?
A draft is saved only when the page confirms a successful save. Keep your requirements and original assets separately while the draft service is unavailable.
Where are results stored, and do they move to another computer?
Skill deliverables are stored in their Codex projects. Web works, assets and recovery across devices depend on available services. Signing in does not automatically move local files.
How do I change the home template, appearance and language?
Use full preview to inspect home templates without publishing site settings. Theme and language controls are at the top; template artwork retains its own palette. Publishing site templates and branding is not yet available.
完整预览首页模板What should I do if the connection or settings are wrong?
In the desktop assistant, confirm that Codex is installed or selected, check your account and network, then check the connection and models again. Keep your existing configuration and error details. Ask your service contact before restoring old settings. Include the time, feature, steps and error message when requesting help, plus the order ID for payment issues.
View the guideWhere are invoices, profile editing, feedback and the community?
Profiles, notifications, tickets, invoices and agreements will appear when their services are available. No simulated profiles, orders, earnings or withdrawal records are shown.
