codex - 💡(How to fix) Fix codex in vscode does not proceed from and stay at the 'Thinking' status, and is too slow. [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The issue may be related to the current version of the IDE extension, and checking for updates or downgrading to a previous version could potentially resolve the problem.

Guidance

• Verify that the issue persists across different VS Code sessions and projects to rule out project-specific configuration issues.
• Check the VS Code extension update channel to see if there are any known issues or updates available for version 26.5422.30944.
• Test the extension with a lower resource-intensive setting (e.g., not "extra high") to see if performance improves.
• Try reproducing the issue with a simple input (e.g., "hello") to isolate the problem.

Notes

The issue report lacks detailed technical information, such as error messages or logs, which could help identify the root cause.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Try downgrading the IDE extension to a previous version or reducing the resource-intensive setting to see if it improves performance, as the current version may be causing the issue.
