What issue are you seeing?
I often see Codex output lists of information. It seems the parser (markdown, perhaps?) resets the numbering of the bulleted list when there's sub-items.
Notice all the 1. …:

What steps can reproduce the bug?
🤷♂️
You'll have to find some prompt that results in this output format.
What is the expected behavior?
- sequential
- sub 1
- sub 2
- numbering
- works
