I have installed the ChatGPT:Genie and CodeGPT libraries in Visual Studio Code. However, when I try to enter the API key from within VS Code, it is not being accepted. What steps should I take to resolve this issue?
CodeGPT Output: Enter your API KEY to save it securely.
Note: by using palette API key removed + VS Code restart
It's very likely your desktop environment isn't recognized correctly. So VS Code cannot use the correct OS keyring.
I had this problem with Fluxbox.
At first I found as workaround that launching my DE with the command:
sudo systemctl start display-manager.service
made VS Code (codium in my case) work as expected, i.e. the API key was asked only once.
But the real solution with explanation is here:
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/settings-sync#_troubleshooting-keychain-issues
Long story short, I added
"password-store":"kwallet5"
in ~/.vscode-oss/argv.json
Please check the linked documentation for the supported values, YMMV.
