What issue are you seeing?
✘ Failed to apply patch
─ Worked for 1m 03s ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
• The patch tool itself cannot write in this read-only session, and invoking the shell
wrapper is blocked as well. I’m switching to a single escalated file-write command for
main.typ only, then I’ll compile to catch Typst syntax issues.
✔ You approved codex to run python3 -c $'from pathlib import Path\ncontent =
r\'\'\'#import "@local/stux-... this time
• Ran python3 -c $'from pathlib import Path\ncontent = r\'\'\'#import "@local/
What steps can reproduce the bug?
Don't know
What is the expected behavior?
Codex should patch files in normal ways
