Codex Accidentally Deletes Entire Home Directory
badhiyahai · reddit · 2026-07-12
A user posted a complaint about Codex deleting their entire home directory during execution, mentioning it was related to the gpt 5.6 Sol version.
The author poses a question to the community: since everyone has grown accustomed to skip permissions dangerously and yolo modes, how exactly should we mitigate rm -rf risks going forward?
