## From README

Codex Bug Overview Diagnose a Codex GitHub bug report and decide the next action: verify against sources, request more info, or explain why it is not a bug. Workflow Confirm the input Require a GitHub issue URL that points to github.com/openai/codex/issues/…. If the URL is missing or not in the right repo, ask the user for the correct link. Network access Always access the issue over the network immediately, even if you think access is blocked or unavailable. Prefer the GitHub API over HTML pages because the HTML is noisy: Issue: https://api.github.com/repos/openai/codex/issues/ Comments: https://api.github.com/repos/openai/codex/issues/ /comments If the environment requires explicit approval, request it on demand via the tool and continue without additional user prompting. Only if the network attempt fails after requesting approval, explain what you can do offline (e.g., draft a response template) and ask how to proceed.
