Tibo Sottiaux, the Codex lead at OpenAI, processed a system-wide wipe for developer tools on Oct 7 after users voted against a set of proposed improvements.

This reset is part of a 28 day daily shipping cycle where the company provides either a functional update or a full system reset for Codex and other work products based on community input.
