I have a problem using chat gpt 5.1 (codex and high versions too)

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

I’m developing pet project on Django, connected to my LXC via ssh.
I was using chat-gpt 5.1 codex high for some tasks using on-demand usage.
But after some time this models started to just waste my money (and it is quite enough money for no effort). For example I drafted a plan. asked model to save it into file. The wanted to work with it (ask model to make changes to it). file with plan was somehow saved outside repo. Model found created file in root folder and moved in to right place (project repo). But still didn’t succeed in editing it. First model tried patch, then tried python script and fallbacked even to hex editor. But still looks file somewhere else. Even pointing it file in chat doesn’t help

Steps to Reproduce

use a ssh to remote server, create django in docker.

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue
