TL;DR

Check the network connection and server status for the Codex App's backend API to resolve the "stream disconnected before completion" error.

Guidance

  • Verify the stability of your internet connection to ensure it's not causing the disconnection.
  • Check the Codex App's official channels or status page for any reported issues with the backend API at https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/responses/compact.
  • Try reproducing the issue with a different thread to see if the problem is specific to the uploaded thread 019d777c-44c8-7e62-8255-2e520dd33928.
  • If the issue persists, consider reaching out to the Codex App support team for further assistance, providing them with the detailed error message and steps to reproduce.

Notes

The provided information does not specify any version-related issues or configuration problems, so it's unclear if upgrading or downgrading the app would resolve the issue. The error seems to be related to a network or server-side problem.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Check the network connection and server status, as this is the most likely cause of the error, and it's a non-invasive step that can be taken before seeking further support.
