    Thanks for the bug report. I've looked at your logs, and this looks like a normal connectivity issue. Codex isn't able to access the server endpoint.

    Double check your network connectivity and network configuration — especially if you're using any proxies, VPNs, or firewalls.

    Has this worked for you in the past on this machine and network? I don't think this is a client issue, but you could try downgrading to an older version of the CLI to confirm.

    @etraut-openai I'm experiencing the same issue - sporadic over the last few days and then consistently starting last night. It's definitely not a change in home networking configuration.

    Edit: to make my response more helpful :) - It's always the 1/5, 2/5, 3/5 ... every 23-25 seconds or so, until it times out entirely at about 2:35-2:40.

    Point in favor of it being completely on my side: when I switch from my home wifi to my iphone hotspot, codex cli works again.

    Point against: I've made zero changes to my home networking config and have been working with Pro from this networking setup for weeks now without experiencing the error behavior, and I'm seeing elevated reports from others about this exact thing. For me it started when I was on 0.87, and I tried upgrading to 0.89 which did not resolve the issue.

    I’ve been having the same problem for a few hours now using the VS Code extension.

    After about twelve hours, it just started working again for me.

    Thanks for the bug reports. We saw elevated errors in one of our clusters. We've rerouted traffic, so things should be back to normal now. We'll continue to monitor over the next few hours.
