What issue are you seeing?

When a custom permission profile contains a network section with enabled = true, the Codex CLI is unable to start the first turn and exits with

Error: turn/start failed in TUI

The issue disappears when enabled is commented out.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Use the following requirements.toml in /etc/codex and start codex via terminal:

default_permissions = "github_only"

[allowed_permission_profiles]
github_only = true
":read-only" = true

[permissions.github_only]
extends = ":read-only"

[permissions.github_only.network]
enabled = true
allow_local_binding = false

[permissions.github_only.network.domains]
"github.com" = "allow"
"api.github.com" = "allow"
"raw.githubusercontent.com" = "allow"
"objects.githubusercontent.com" = "allow"
"githubusercontent.com" = "allow"

What is the expected behavior?

When solving tasks, codex should access these urls without asking for permission and if it wants to use other urls it should ask for permissions
