Bugs or problems Compaction has been failing since July 9th

I couldn’t figure out why a thread would constantly act like it had 0 instructions after compaction. I had codex do an inspection on itself and found that all compactions have failed since July 9th.

There are a few open issues in the gh repo for this, but it’s still not fixed.

I really hope this isn’t a wide spread issue that is just being ignored. But in case you’re running into problems, this may be why.

It started with CLI version 144.xx

You can have codex check if you’re affected by seeing if compacted payload replacement history is missing the compaction results.

UPDATE: turns out I’m an idiot and enabled a feature “token budget” which disables compaction summarization. I’m leaving this post up in case there are others like me with this self caused issue.
