## Exact Symptom

See the observed Codex queries below.

## Diagnosis

SDK types may still accept fields that the selected hosted model rejects; model retirement, tokenizer, thinking, and tool behavior are external and fast-moving.

## Fix

```
Verifier checks current model ID, accepted payload, structured output/tool parsing, and behavior under retries.
```

## Avoid

- Changing local code without checking the current external contract.
- Retrying the same install, build, or API call with no version/source change.
- Applying a broad unsafe bypass when a narrow compatibility fix is available.
