When you say that it "crashes", do you mean that the harness terminates? Or do you mean that an error is reported to the user when this condition occurs? If it's the latter, then that's the expected behavior.

@etraut-openai The harness doesn't terminate (as in the CLI exiting), but the user gets the raw API JSON error response, I don't believe this is intended except for the error being surfaced. There's a bad parameter being sent from the harness side.

Notifying the user that reasoning summaries will be disabled as they're unsupported by the model would be ideal

Note for maintainers: The automated triage run by @ctkm-aelf (FKST-codex-harness#114) improperly marked this issue as needs-info and closed the saga tracking.

The reproduction runner collapsed due to a host-level compilation error (ENOSPC / out of disk space) while building codex-core, meaning the test never actually ran. The underlying payload gating failure regarding reasoning.summary in codex-rs/core/src/client.rs:790 is valid and has not been evaluated.

The systemic class-wide leak where runner infrastructure falls back to needs-info classification is being tracked at ChronoAIProject/fkst-packages#2168.
