Please describe the problem this would solve. The code in the Codex harness is designed to always use ws if it can and fall back to http if it cannot. Is this not working for you?

The CLI always show reconnecting 5 times when use WS，it's normal when it fall back to HTTP，only a detailed problem，but really need a reasonable solution

If you're not able to connect with ws, that typically means that there's a network configuration issue on your system or network. If you're on a corporate network, talk to your IT team.

While Codex can work with basic http, your experience will be degraded in that mode. There are a bunch of performance benefits that ws provides.
