The codex application and extensions cannot be accessed
What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?
26.422.62136
What subscription do you have?
pro
What platform is your computer?
macos:Darwin 25.4.0 arm64 arm
What issue are you seeing?
Whenever I open the Codex app or the Codex extension in VS Code, it gets stuck on the loading screen. I only see the Codex icon, but it never actually loads. Strangely, it works perfectly fine on my Windows system.
I've already tried reinstalling it and deleting the .codex file/folder, but nothing has worked. Deleting the .codex folder does trigger the login prompt, but once I log in, I'm back to the same endless loading screen. I've also noticed on some Chinese tech forums that other users are experiencing this exact same issue.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
open the codex app or ide extension on macos
What is the expected behavior?
it gets stuck on the loading screen. only see the Codex icon, but it never actually loads.
Additional information
The Codex login process and ChatGPT can both be accessed normally, so I think network issues can be ruled out. I also noticed that after waiting for a while on another desktop and then switching back to the Codex page, the Codex app briefly shows the page after entering, but then quickly returns to the loading screen.
