What issue are you seeing?

I am unable to change the permission level in the UI using the dropdown select field.

I try to select Default Permissions which is what I usually use and it does not change after I click it so I am stuck with the toml file option which is read only.

I tried adding more permissions to my toml file:

sandbox_mode = "workspace-write"
approval_policy = "on-request"

But even then my threads are read-only. So I'm stuck completely and can't do anything that requires write permission to my workspace.

I have restarted codex, logged out and back in again, but nothing changes. It affect all my threads too.

I did update Codex a short while ago and so maybe a recent change affected this

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Not sure, the app just seemed to stop allowing permission changes.

What is the expected behavior?
