is it similar to this https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/3621 ?
Thanks for the bug report. We've shared the feedback with the team members who are responsible for training our codex models. We're tracking this feedback and similar reports so we can make the model more robust in future iterations.
If you see other model behavior that you'd like to report, please use the recently-added
/feedbackcommand in the CLI. That will provide us with additional details including logs and conversation text.
