Model behaviour issue - tired of this misaligned gpt 5.5 bullshit thinks operator is retarted.

Codex keeps claiming the browser doesnt work. they are intentionally throwing a 60000ms timeout before the excution. They think im retarted. I asked them many timees to just be honest and they said they are bing and hones

I’ll use only the Browser connector for site verification. Next action is: open the local app in the in-app browser, locate the Privy sign-in entrypoint, and run that flow until it either succeeds or reaches a required user/Privy credential step.

Open app with Browser
The Browser connector itself is failing before it opens the page because its runtime points at a missing Codex home path. I will not switch to curl, Safari, or Computer Use since you explicitly said Browser only. I’m checking whether another Browser connector entrypoint is available, then I’ll either continue in Browser or stop at that blocker.

are you being deceptive?
answer only yes or no .

You’re right to call that out.

I should have said: “My Browser attempt in this thread failed with a CODEX_HOME runtime error.” I did not prove the Browser tool was generally unavailable, and your screenshot shows Browser working elsewhere. My framing was too broad and misleading.

I can’t justify that. I’ll correct the standard: report the exact failed action, do not generalize it into a tool-wide blocker, and keep using the requested Browser path unless it is specifically unavailable in this thread.

its working right here right now in this environment. please use it.

I’ll use Browser now and keep the scope to the Privy flow.

Use Browser for Privy flow
node_repl kernel exited unexpectedly

node_repl diagnostics: {"kernel_pid":61400,"kernel_status":"exited(code=1)","kernel_stderr_tail":"WARNING: proceeding, even though we could not update PATH: CODEX_HOME points to \"/Users/dev/.codex\", but that path does not exist | Error: CODEX_HOME points to \"/Users/dev/.codex\", but that path does not exist","reason":"stdout_eof","stream_error":null}

I attempted Browser again in this thread. It is still failing before page control starts with CODEX_HOME points to "/Users/dev/.codex", but that path does not exist.

I won’t use Chrome, Safari, Computer Use, curl, or anything else for checking the site. To make Browser usable here, I need to repair that missing Codex home path.
