Summary

The June 8 Codex community digest surfaced a cluster of gpt-5.5 404 errors across Codex CLI and Desktop beginning June 7. The public issue pattern suggests a model-availability or backend rollout problem rather than an isolated client bug.

What changed

Codex users reported sudden gpt-5.5 404 errors across multiple Codex surfaces in public GitHub issues.
