Resolved 💬 0 comments Opened Aug 19, 2025 by HunterHillegas Closed Aug 27, 2025

What version of Codex is running?

0.22.0

Which model were you using?

gpt-5-reasoning-high-whatever-it-is-called

What platform is your computer?

Darwin 25.0.0 arm64 arm

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Ask the agent to read a page from OpenAI's documentation site and it will try but apparently OpenAI has "protected" the documentation behind Cloudflare and it's not able to fetch it? Own-goal... Means the agent cannot find the correct docs.

`
Take a look at the documentation on this page for streaming responses in the OpenAI Responses API here:
https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/responses-streaming

...

⌨️ curl -sSL https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/responses/streaming

codex
Docs are behind Cloudflare. I’ll search GitHub/OpenAPI sources for the official event list instead.
`

What is the expected behavior?

It would be nice if OpenAI's agent could fetch OpenAI's latest documentation.

What do you see instead?
