What version of Codex is running?
codex-cli 0.77.0
What subscription do you have?
Chatgpt plus
Which model were you using?
gpt-5
What platform is your computer?
Darwin 23.6.0 arm64 arm
What issue are you seeing?
zig test commands fail with a signal 11 within the codex sandbox. The command works perfectly outside the codex sandbox
What steps can reproduce the bug?
To reproduce:
- Initialize a new zig project via
zig init - Run the following prompt within codex, the output should be as mentioned here:
› Run the simple test in ./src/main.zig
• I’m going to run the Zig unit test in src/main.zig and show its output.
• Explored
└ List main.zig
✔ You approved codex to run zig test ./src/main.zig this time
• Ran zig test ./src/main.zig
└ execution error: Sandbox(Signal(11))
• Running the zig test (23s • esc to interrupt)
What is the expected behavior?
The expected behaviour here is for the test to run and return a sane return code / some stdout output. None of this happens and a signal 11 is returned
