codex 0.34.0 nm and homebrew using wrong backend on Mac OS X?

Resolved 💬 2 comments Opened Sep 12, 2025 by NeonDrifterz Closed Sep 15, 2025

What version of Codex is running?

0.34.0

Which model were you using?

gpt-4.1

What platform is your computer?

Mac OS X MacBook Air m4

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Codex CLI was working earlier today, but after upgrading to @openai/codex@0.34.0 via npm (also tried brew), every command fails with: :warning: stream error: error sending request for url (https_://chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/responses) (I edited the link on purpose because the automation refuses posts with links, simply remove the _) I have reinstalled, logged in again, and confirmed my Pro plan is active. Please advise if there is an outage or if OpenAI intends to fix with the proper backend url (or something else). Environment: macOS (Apple Silicon), npm install -g @openai/codex, codex-cli 0.34.0.

What is the expected behavior?

The CLI calls https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/responses.
That endpoint has been deprecated or disabled.
I think it should be: https://api.openai.com/v1/responses
unless there is an outage or some other work going on

What do you see instead?
