Looks like Codex has finally rolled out to Plus users. I connected Github to my Codex instance through the ChatGPT Connector. When I try to code something, I get this error: GitHub Repository must be initialized to be used within Codex. And yet, it is connected according to my viewing of the setting…

I think I fixed it - the github repo was set but must not have been completed fully. Once set, I was able to initiate a task.

Cannot run Codex but Connected to GitHub

That is the same way I figured it out too. In GitHub, I created a repo but no codebase.
