Hi OpenAI support,

I’m using Codex Desktop on Windows with a local repo. In a previous turn I may have denied a network/access permission, and since then the Codex tool sandbox appears to be stuck without network access.

Evidence:
Inside Codex tool execution:

• Get-ChildItem Env:CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED returns:

CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED=1

• Test-NetConnection github.com -Port 443 -InformationLevel Quiet returns:

False

• git push, git ls-remote, and Trello API calls fail from Codex with network errors.

However, outside the sandbox on the same Windows machine:

• Test-NetConnection github.com -Port 443 -InformationLevel Quiet returns:

True

• git push origin main works from normal PowerShell.
• Trello API scripts work from normal PowerShell.

I checked Windows environment variables:

• CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED is not set at User level.
• It is not set at Machine level.
• It only appears inside the Codex process.

Forking the chat/thread did not restore network access; the new fork still showed CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED=1.

Question:
How can I reset/re-enable network permissions for this Codex Desktop workspace/thread/sandbox? Is there a local permission cache or setting I can clear? Can you please provideme step-by-step resolution!

Environment:

• OS: Windows
• Shell: PowerShell
• Repo path:

C:\Users\diego\Documents\Codex\2026-06-07\sos-el-agente-codex-trabajando-en\work\lf-management-webApp

• Network works on host, fails only inside Codex tool sandbox.

Thanks.
