Try logging out and logging back in to see if that resolves it.

If not, please repro the problem and then use the /feedback slash command to upload your logs and session details, then post the thread ID here so I can reference the uploaded details.

@isha-paliwal3, I'm looking at your logs, and it appears that you've configured Codex to use https://ai-linton8487ai296041917917.openai.azure.com/openai/v1/responses as the endpoint. Are you using an Azure-hosted model?

@kj809, I'm seeing the same thing in your logs.

If you're using an Azure-hosted endpoint and you're seeing "401 Unauthroized" errors, you should contact the folks in Azure and work with them on a fix.

Was working fine two days ago.

OK, it works on my mbp, which has codex 5.3 available. However, on the machine that fails, I can only see 5.2 instead. Reinstalling extension makes no change.

@super148666, I wasn't able to look at your logs. If you used /feedback to upload, it apparently failed. Are you also using Azure-hosted models? If so, please report this issue to the Azure folks.

I just uploaded the feedback. Thread ID: 019c9844-047b-7622-b1c0-56d9ffc81e67
