The issue has been mitigated, and the Codex Team is monitoring. Let us know if you are seeing additional 429's over the next few hours.
The error stopped occurring, but I have the impression that some silent error is happening (codex is unable to work for more than 2 minutes without asking if it should continue with the next step).
