Thanks for checking this out and for flagging the auth issues. We just open-sourced it, and there's still plenty for us to improve. Expect the product to evolve quickly.
If you try it, I'd really appreciate hearing what works well and what you think we should improve. Happy to answer questions here.

I'm amazed that the requirements are so low (or at least this vague) for jobs at companies like these.
Has anyone else had the experience of going to an interview and feeling like you were never asked any qualifying questions?
All the questions were easy, your answers were straightforward, you "got them right", but then were not chosen?
I find on the other side, they're also left with dozens of people who "passed" and then it comes down to a pretty arbitrary decision on who gets hired (if we are talking external, no referral, etc.)
I wonder if they can make job descriptions highly specific to filter the shortlist faster and more effectively (to actually get a shortlist).
Anyway end rant. Cool job, hope you fill it.
How does it deal with the current guardrails 5.6 Sol has on finding vulnerabilities? When I use it in the Codex app it would sometimes say it found a vulnerability, but it cannot tell me what it is.
For authorized defensive work, Trusted Access for Cyber (TAC1/Daybreak) can reduce refusals depending on the model and the account or organization where access is provisioned. It isn't a blanket bypass.
If you're an open-source maintainer, you can apply for conditional Codex Security access here:

For enterprise teams, the public Daybreak onboarding guide is here:

If you have an example of "found a vulnerability but won't tell me what it is," I'd love to take a look too. You can send it to use with /feedback (or message me).
It said "Partial output was kept at <...>", but I dont see a obvious way of picking it up in a new scan? (The failed run cost me ~$13)
We've been talking to hundreds of engineering and security teams, and their feedback is shaping what we build.
Like Promptfoo, our goal is practical tooling that fits into the workflows teams already have.

Offtopic, but this right here is why I don't believe any marketing around "great amazing models that one-shot everything and programmers are no longer needed".
You just have to look at what these labs routinely produce, and their own products.
Edit to respond to @simonw whose comment I saw before he retracted it ;)
This comment is tied directly to consistent continuous claims by the LLM labs. Their own products disprove their own claims, and it would indeed be nice if fewer people believed them :)

Some of approaches there could be useful in other contexts. OAI has the compute to experiment with different prompts and I'd expect these to be somewhat optimized.
Can they explain what types of projects it works on and how does it check I own it? Like will it just not work on Linux kernel even on my own patches to it?
How can I trust that they show me all findings they have instead of selling the best ones to some three letter organisations?
Edit: there's a little bit more meat here: https://github.com/openai/codex-security/tree/main/sdk/types...
I'm building AQ, a coding harness for teams and the pattern is identical. For a while, I thought the raw model is the answer and quickly changed my mind. Purpose built harnesses are way more powerful than it sounds.
