alt Hacker NewsI assume they are lying and still think you can use gpt 5.5 non-codex within codex cli. And they outed themselves. A lot of nonsense. And the very poor communication skills just seem like the typical chinese astroturfing you see pretty often now when discussing OAI/Claude.
See, this is part of the confusion. There is no such thing as "GPT-5.5-codex". The last codex-branded model was "GPT-5.3-codex". Starting with "GPT-5.4" the main model handles agentic engineering and they did not release a coding model.
Both the web harness and codex app/cli use "GPT-5.5".
