How to downgrade?

Hi there

This came up this morning, so I did it...

Sorry, but how do I undo it? I preferred the version I was on, but unsure how to downgrade?

Solved...

npm uninstall -g @openai/codex

npm install -g @openai/codex@0.1.2505172129

Uninstalling codex and reinstalling version 0.142.5 fixed the issue. Whether just uninstalling and reinstalled fixed it or reverting back to the older version I can't say. Current version as of late yesterday is 0.143.

here is a workaround for downgrading the codex cli version, the key is CODEX_RELEASE=0.146.1 :

$ curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | CODEX_NON_INTERACTIVE=1 CODEX_RELEASE=0.146.1 sh
==> Updating Codex CLI from 0.147.0 to 0.146.1
==> Detected platform: Linux (x64)
==> Resolved version: 0.146.1
==> /home/user/.local/bin is already on PATH
==> Current terminal: codex
==> Future terminals: open a new terminal and run: codex
Codex CLI 0.146.1 installed successfully.
