It also happens in the VSCode Extension and if you ask to work on a plan and save it in the file.
The workaround is, to say "instead of citations put set the file names".
_C'est compliqué!_
For now, I'd just be waiting for the CLI fix, I think it's probably the model's/tools output.. not sure
Still seeing this happen quite a bit -- especially when editing markdown files. (i'm running latest
mainso i'm up to date).relates perhaps to https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/4855
@nornagon-openai -- Jeremy, is this still a problem that y'all know about ?
@imajes Are you still seeing this issue? I'm having trouble reproducing the bug after that PR you linked to
I suspect this might be a model behavior, not a Codex harness issue. We would need a session trace to verify. If you see this again, please use the
/feedbacktool and upload the logs and session data, then post the thread ID here.This should now be fixed. If you see it again, please let us know.
