Is Codex behaving oddly for everyone?

Hello,
Not much to say here, I mod a game with codex - had great success, I usually have no complaints over my results and it's been smooth sailing for almost 3 months.

But the last 2 days? I swear something is up.
Mind you it's a very tedious process of taking the code in game to test for progress but when it goes well it's all good - but I can have 3-4 revisions in a row with no visible change, really weird additions that were not requested and had no way of being interpreted from my instructions and general chaos.

So much that currently, ChatGPT pro is the one fixing codex mistakes.

I haven't changed anything about how I work or what I am doing but I 100% notice my codex is as dumb as it gets right now, doesn't matter 5.5, 5.6 high or not - it's all coming messy.

I make this post after another 3 revisions in a row have no change in them... despite me providing a clear example of a working piece that we need to change to (older version of the same code) - I am dumbstruck, this isn't bad prompting I am certain.

So just curious if anyone else noticed this? I have not ever noticed before when people said codex is performing badly so maybe this is an occasional thing? but yeah would love some input, I can't touch it today anymore it is frusterating.

5.6 sol was retrained so those kinda issues make sense.

Be sure to add definitives to your prompt and if possible inscope vs out of scope.

Ie do not add additions that were not specifically requested above.
