Codex Help Scout plugin: no connection
What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?
26.609.71450
What subscription do you have?
Pro 5x
What platform is your computer?
Darwin 25.5.0 x86_64 i386
What issue are you seeing?
I install the Help Scout plug in on Codex app. It installs successfully. I go through the "Connect" flow and it _says_ it connects successfully, but it doesn't actually seem to. Codex cannot see a connection, and the "Connect" button is always there, as if the connection was never made.
I tried the Connect flow multiple times, I updated and restarted the Codex app.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
- Install the Help Scout plugin
- click the "Connect" button on the plug in page
- Click the "Continue to Help Scout" button in the "Connect to Help Scout" modal in the Codex app
- In the Help Scout app in Chrome browser, click the "Authorize" button
- Be re-routed to the Codex app and wait for the "Connect" button progress bar to stop spinning
- See the "Help Scout is now connected" success modal
- See that the "Connect" button returns immediately, insinuating that there is still no connection.
- Try using Help Scout in a codex session. It will say the plugin exists but that there is no connection.
- Try to go through the "Connect" flow again. Repeat steps above with same results.

What is the expected behavior?
When I complete the "Connect" flow, I expect the connection to be made and to be able to access my Help Scout content from a codex session.
