None of the models seem to work.
They say either outdated in the case of babbage and davinci or qouta exceeded in the case of 3.5 and 4o.

Have you tried running with o4-mini? What error are you seeing as a result?
Hi, that was the model it is set to by default when I first run codex.
On screen it shows,
The output I get from any response is as follows:
I hope this can be made accessible.
I've tried regenerating the api key but that didn't work either.
And when I try another model like
gpt-4o-mini, it hits me with 'insufficient_quota'Hence, I have not been able to use codex and have not seen it work outside the youtube demo.
@tibo-openai Hi, do you have better starter documentation for this?
Now, nothing of OpenAI works for me anymore. I'm a bit lost and worried.
Thank you for the feedback! Please try using the latest version of Codex CLI. If the issue persists, we'd love to hear more details. You can also try the native/Rust implementation by running
brew install codex.
