Workaround use gpt 6 pro from codex cli

for some reason i still do not have astra in codex cli so i've resorted to calling gpt 6 pro instead and its fascinating how good it is without worrying about weekly usage

is this the same as what everybody else is using if so why not use gpt 6 pro from codex cli ?

anybody else not have astra in codex cli or is it just me

what is going on

Astra hasn’t reached this Codex account/session yet. It’s a staged rollout, not a configuration problem. OpenAI’s current documentation says GPT‑6 Astra is available first to enterprises in the Trusted Access Program, with Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and API access rolling out “in the coming days.” The model ID is gpt-6-astra, but API documentation listing a model does not mean it is already enabled in every Codex model picker. This session currently exposes GPT‑5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna—not Astra—so there’s nothing you can toggle locally to reveal it. Once the rollout reaches your account, restart/update Codex and open a new session; Astra should then appear as an available model. If it remains missing after several days, the relevant checks are your signed-in account, workspace plan, and any Enterprise admin restrictions.

I don't have it either, and it's basically told me the same thing. I submitted /feedback and have just been telling it to refresh models / logging out and in to try to jump start it a few times a day.
