Claude
Claude uses browser OAuth first. After sign-in, Syndicate stores credentials in the expected Claude credentials location and treats Claude as connected when a valid OAuth access token is available.OpenAI / Codex
OpenAI uses the Codex CLI auth file and a live capability check. Syndicate watches for Codex auth changes, refreshes provider state, and verifies that the account can execute Codex.Gemini
Gemini may use the in-app terminal. Syndicate treats Gemini as connected when OAuth credentials exist, a configured API key is available, or a lightweight probe succeeds.Terminal UI rule
- Gemini can show the in-app auth terminal.
- OpenAI/Codex should not show the in-app auth terminal.
- Claude should use browser OAuth; terminal is a fallback only.
