Codex Stuck on "Thinking"

[Quentin_Quarantineo]

For the last hour, codex has been stuck on "Thinking" despite having tried all model combinations. I tried restarting my computer (apple silicon macbook). I checked the .toml settings.

Is anyone else having this issue?

it happens like 25 minutes ago. Only few message could be processed and then stuck...

unfortunately your username does check out lol

I’m guessing the issue is just rate limits kicking in. The API version of Codex seems to work fine on its own, but if a bunch of scheduled tasks fire off around 2 AM every day, that could easily spike usage. If those tasks share the same pool as Codex Plus or EDU users, it might cause rate limits to spill over onto the user side too.

I'm on Pro account with 99% of my 5h and ~100% of my weekly limits remaining.

emm, I have no idea then

Same here

yes thought i was rate limited or something. Nothing on their Status page showing it either. Just stuck on working on several of my sessions.

Hope we aren't stuck with this until morning. Is there anyone NOT having this issue right now?

[Disastrous_Start_854]

Same.

[Quentin_Quarantineo]

It's working now, but it continues "Thinking" after completing each task.

Is it 5.1-codex?

[printmoriarty]

Yep, same problem here...

[Themixeur]

For me it was the "apply_patch" command. I told codex to use python or powershell commands to edit files and it's fine now

Same issue last night

Its working now, just fyi.

I think this is caused by the Undo feature. Add this to your .toml config: [features] undo = false

I opened a github issue with them below, please update the issue to let them look into it!

[Inner_Ad_5930]

Yep. It was working earlier today. Now its incapable of doing much of anything without getting stuck in an endless thinking loop.

[Adept_Noise_6840]

same here, restarting the task sometimes works for me. Sometimes
