What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

26.519.21041

What subscription do you have?

Teams/Business

What platform is your computer?

Windows 11

What issue are you seeing?

I updated to the latest Codex version about 20 minutes ago, and immediately afterward the app stopped functioning properly.

Any prompt that requires Codex to execute or read multiple commands/paths gets stuck indefinitely, regardless of how long I wait.

I already restarted the application, but the issue persists.

I’m using:

  • 5.5 Extra-High Fast

Additionally, the Context Usage icon/indicator (the one that showed usage before compacting) has disappeared after the update.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  1. Update Codex from the previous version to 26.519.2081.0
  2. Run any prompt that requires Codex to read multiple paths or execute multiple read operations simultaneously

What is the expected behavior?

Codex should process these prompts normally, as it did before the update.
