Yep this just happened to me in MacOs (Macbook Air M1) Also showed a banner with 'new' gpt-5.3-codex and cant load my recent threads from 2hrs
Also have same issue, Mac M1
Having the same issue here, Macbook M3 Pro. Can't change the selected model neither send any message on existing or new threads.
Same here (macOS app). but, codex cli works file.
Just found the cause here. In my case, I got GSD installed. When I went to settings -> Configuration I saw some errors in configuration files caused by it. I removed GSD and restarted the app, and now I saw a different error at config.toml. Honestly, I do not remember now, I just removed the config that it was complaining until everything looked fine and... voilà, it worked again.
Here is my config page without errors (it should show a yellow tooltip if you have these errors)

And here is my config.toml that is showing no errors
In my case, there was a minor error in
workspace/.codex/config.toml. I was able to detect the issue using a VS Code extension calledEven Better TOML. After fixing it, I confirmed that the Codex macOS app works normally.I've personally changed nothing, and had AI scrutinize my config, nothing ive tried has fixed my issue.
Same issue.
GSD uses invalid TOML in the agents directory. You can confirm the issues with a TOML validator like taplo:
find . -name '*.toml' -print0 | xargs -0 taplo checkThe GSD fix is in the PR queue here: https://github.com/gsd-build/get-shit-done/pull/1008
mv config.toml bkup.tomland launched, same issue, unable to load threads.People are saying some config issues helped it for them, but rest assured even with no config, I still cannot load a thread.
The issue is not your
config.toml, it's likely a bad TOML file in agents directory. Run a TOML validator against all toml files under.codexYou're correct, I narrowed it down to generic Agents I had made just simply to change model versions for low effort stuff, they were missing description field, which has never been an issue until the most recent patch. No error for it in the configuration page of codex, what a pain.
Better Codex behavior would:
1) Skip a bad agent TOML file instead of crashing startup
2) Warn user that there was a problem parsing specific bad agent TOML file
3) Point the user to Settings -> Configuration to see a bigger error
Puedo confirmar que GSD estaba causando el problema tambien para mi, despues de arrojar los desubrimientos del PR mencionado mas arriba dentro de opencode se puede parchear directamente cada agente o clonar el repo y hacer una instalacion nueva corrigiendo el archivo bin/install.js
