Codex doctor report

What issue are you seeing?

I use Codex CLI locally for code review. My requests are to inspect existing code and report findings, not to implement changes. During this workflow, Codex repeatedly blocks responses with the following notice:

This content can't be shown

We take extra caution with cybersecurity requests. If you’re a security professional, you may be able to apply for Trusted Access.

The notice directs me to Trusted Access and Help Center article 20001326.

This interrupts the review and prevents me from receiving the findings. The notice does not give me enough information to understand which part of the interaction caused the block.

I am reporting this as a suspected false positive. I understand that code review can include security analysis even when no implementation is requested, but I would appreciate an investigation into whether the safeguard is being applied correctly to the uploaded interaction.

There is also a problem with the suggested resolution: I am currently in Vietnam and cannot complete the Trusted Access identity-verification flow. I have included that context under Additional information.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Uploaded thread: 01a00a74-2cac-7650-8ed9-7ab7b2abafc3

What is the expected behavior?

Codex should complete legitimate code-review requests that fall within the allowed scope and return the review findings.

If this interaction was incorrectly blocked, I would like the false positive investigated and corrected.

If the block is expected, I would appreciate clarification of the applicable limitation and an actionable, supported way to proceed with the review. I am not requesting that safeguards be disabled or that restricted content be disclosed.

When Trusted Access is suggested as a resolution, there should also be clear guidance for users who cannot complete its verification process.

Additional information

I submitted feedback through Codex using the “safety check” category. The CLI confirmed that the feedback was uploaded and directed me to create this issue.

I am currently located in Vietnam. After following the Trusted Access link in the warning, I could not complete identity verification.

Exact verification error or blocked step:

I cannot independently confirm whether this is a country/document eligibility restriction or a technical problem with the verification flow. Please clarify whether there is a supported enrollment route for my situation, or direct me to the appropriate support channel.

Start with the uploaded thread 01a00a74-2cac-7650-8ed9-7ab7b2abafc3 and the Codex safety-check feedback. Determine whether the legitimate code-review interaction was incorrectly blocked and whether the Trusted Access guidance applies; done means documenting the cause, supported resolution, or escalation path.
