This page isolates Codex components from OpenAI’s official feed. If they are operational, the next useful test is your repository, authentication, sandbox, tool call, and expected code-change workflow.

Codex is operational. Is your workflow?
An official status page answers whether the provider sees a broad service problem. It does not execute the request, repository, or browser journey your product depends on.
Account session
Verify the active account, organization, seat, and authorization scope in the failing environment.
Client and extension
Reproduce on the current stable client, then compare extension, IDE, and CLI behavior.
Network path
Check proxy, VPN, DNS, TLS inspection, and firewall rules between the client and provider.
Workflow result
Run the real repository or browser task and assert the final output, not only the provider connection.
Official components and incidents
Scope matters. The rows below come from OpenAI Status and are filtered to OpenAI Codex. They are evidence from the provider, not synthetic Qodex probes.
No matching incident is active in the Codex source data returned for this render.
Troubleshoot Codex without guessing
Start with the provider state, then move inward through your account, request, application, and final user journey.

Codex status FAQ
Is Codex down right now?
The status above is rendered from OpenAI Status and scoped to Codex API, VS Code extension, and Codex in ChatGPT Desktop. If the official source is unavailable, Qodex reports the status as unavailable instead of guessing.
Why can Codex be operational while my integration is failing?
Provider dashboards report aggregate platform health. Your account, credentials, model access, region, request contract, SDK, repository, browser session, or downstream application flow can still fail independently.
Does Qodex monitor or operate Codex?
No. Codex is operated by its provider. Qodex renders the provider’s public status data here and helps engineering teams test the API and UI workflows that depend on it.
What should I test after the provider status is green?
Replay the real request and user journey with the same environment, credentials, payload, and assertions used in production. Check the response contract and the final user-visible result, not only connectivity.
Provider green is the start of diagnosis.
Qodex tests the API and UI path your team actually ships, then keeps the evidence with the failure.
