Codex unable to find the repo

I can see codex has read the repo and created couple of task for itself. But when I ask it to solve an issue - its throws up this error. Really disappointing.

I do not have network access from this environment. Because of this, I cannot open the referenced GitHub issue (#5543) to see its description or requirements, so I am unable to implement the requested fix.

The Codex agent has no network access so you can’t ask it to look up a github issue. It does, however, get the git repo and can interrogate repository history and will do so readily to solve regressions if they are mentioned. Environment setup, including dependency installation, needs to be configured here codex/settings/environments, which can for instance be used to run pip install requirements.txt (assuming that file is in the repo). Once environment is setup network access is cutoff for the agent. Try your use case again, but instead of referencing the github issue, copy the issue description into the task.

This is not at all in line with how this should work. You have the repo access so should you have github issues. You are making the user repeat the github issue description to be duplicated in task again!!! Not to mention the github issue has images attached and I cant be spendign time to do that again. There are other services which are kicking great when it comes to this.

Unfortunately, I will contact support for a refund.
