What issue are you seeing?

I am facing an issue with the WebSocket transport: for every prompt, I have to wait through five attempts before it switches to the HTTP fallback, and I haven't found an option to lock the transport method.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the WebSocket retry and HTTP fallback behavior in Codex CLI 0.154.0 using the uploaded thread 01a0934d-d72a-7e43-9a74-89cb86030f6c. No source file, test, or expected behavior is named in the issue, so identify the transport entry point first. Done should mean the repeated attempts or transport-selection behavior matches an agreed expectation.
