Open 💬 2 comments Opened Jul 14, 2026 by zb-byte

What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

Version: 26.707.72221 - Released: Jul 14, 2026

What subscription do you have?

ChatGPT Plus

What platform is your computer?

macOS 26.5.2 (25F84)

What issue are you seeing?

Every new Codex task fails immediately with:

Error creating task
no rollout found for thread id ...

This happens for every newly created task.

I have already tried:

  • Signing out and signing back in
  • Restarting ChatGPT Desktop
  • Creating multiple new threads
  • Verifying that Codex CLI works correctly on the same machine and account

The issue only affects the ChatGPT Desktop Codex UI. Codex CLI works normally.

Environment:

  • ChatGPT Desktop for macOS
  • Version: 26.707.72221 (Released Jul 14, 2026)
  • ChatGPT Plus

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  1. Open ChatGPT Desktop on macOS.
  2. Switch to Codex.
  3. Create a new Codex task.
  4. Enter any prompt (for example: "Reply with OK only.").
  5. Submit the task.

Result:
The task immediately fails with:

Error creating task
no rollout found for thread id ...

What is the expected behavior?

Every newly created Codex task immediately fails with:
"Error creating task"
"no rollout found for thread id ..."
