P1P1 — Reasoning Dashboard Broken for ChatGPT Models

User tested multiple GPT models (5.4, 5.5, mini), all reasoning levels, verbose mode on/off, streaming on/off, Safari and Chrome, MacBook Pro — and the Dashboard simply will not show reasoning. Community consensus: limitation of the Codex harness used with GPT models. The core transparency feature is broken for the most popular model family.

P1P1 — Tailscale Permanently Bricks Agent

User installed Tailscale, then uninstalled it completely, removed machines from their Tailscale account — and the agent still fails. The fix: manually killing the session which had persisted even after reinstalling OpenClaw. Session state surviving complete software uninstall/reinstall is a persistence model that's actively hostile to recovery.

Gobii Comparison

Managed platform eliminates the network-fragility surface and provides working dashboard UX across all model providers.

⚠️ Critical Assessment

Dashboard broken for ChatGPT users. Installing a VPN permanently bricks the agent — even after complete removal. Session state survives uninstall.

💡 Real User Experience

"I installed Tailscale, realized it caused problems, uninstalled it completely — and my agent was still broken. Three hours of troubleshooting before I discovered I had to manually kill a session that survived a full software reinstall. That's not persistence, that's a trap."
