Then we have the following as shown below, where it will not show the diff, instead it only shows the number of lines that has been edited:

I think this has been fixed in newer versions of codex, so I'm going to close. If you see this with the latest version, please let us know and I'll reopen.

Missing diff in summary still. Become worse after Codex-MAX!

Did you check that it actually made the edits? I haven't seen the missing diffs lately, but quite often when context is running low it will start hallucinating making the edits. It will say it's edited stuff, without actually editing anything and I have to restart in a new session.
