Are there cases when codex AI review leaves more than one comment?

I've been using codex AI review for a while, and I never received more than one comment from it. It seems weird to me. Also, few times it could leave comments like "this log seems copy-pasted from another place and doesn't reflect actual logic that happens in the class"

Is there some setting for it, or is it a bug/by design?

This is currently by design, but we will tweak this in the future to produce more comments.

Do you have any estimates of how far this future is? :)

The issue is that it's not mentioned with H1-sized letters in https://chatgpt.com/codex/settings/code-review, and if seems that our company should again consider some other AI-review solution (that doesn't cost $40 usd per dev like BugBot from cursor)...

I use codex only to review and research . I think i may need to drop pro version if it is not fixed soon . Any one here has some other hack to work around this

@tibo-openai Is there any plan to improve upon this ? Or will it stay like this by design ?

@yannickrondeau, this hasn't been a top priority for the team, but it is something we'd like to address.

@etraut-openai @tibo-openai I love the detail of Codex Reviews but it's extremely bad for productivity when it always leaves 1-2 comments per review and to get a comprehensive review I have to constantly keep updating my PR. Would really appreciate a setting to see all comments at once so I can address all in one followup commit.

Should this be re-opened then? At least it shouldn't be closed as completed as it's not.

This is really difficult to work with with, only one or two comments at a time is a huge waste of resources and time.
