OpenAI is scheduled to shut down access to 13 older model snapshots, including several Codex variants, on July 23, 2026. Developers using these models, such as GPT-5.2 Codex, must migrate their production configurations and CI scripts to newer models like GPT-5.5. This transition requires more than a simple find-and-replace, as the replacement models have different performance, pricing, and potentially architectural characteristics, necessitating thorough testing and cost analysis.

RANK_REASON This is a notice about the deprecation of older models and the need for users to update their integrations, rather than a new model release.
