{"type":"error","status":400,"error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"The 'gpt-5.5' model is not supported when using Codex with a ChatGPT account."}}
### What steps can reproduce the bug?
Codex shows my account as `Plus` in `/status`, and `gpt-5.5` is visible/selectable, but requests fail immediately with:
```text
{"type":"error","status":400,"error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"The 'gpt-5.5' model is not supported when using Codex with a ChatGPT account."}}
Relevant context:
- /status shows:
- OpenAI Codex (v0.125.0)
- Account: [redacted] (Plus)
- Model: gpt-5.4
- Session: 019dc8f0-8c9b-70a0-9147-d456244229e0
- I am signed in with a ChatGPT account, not an API key.
- The model picker offers gpt-5.5, but execution is rejected by the backend.
This looks like an entitlement / account-sync inconsistency:
- account tier appears to be Plus
- but gpt-5.5 is still rejected as unsupported for ChatGPT account auth
### What is the expected behavior?
1. Sign in to Codex CLI with a ChatGPT Plus account.
2. Confirm in `/status` that the account is shown as `Plus`.
3. Select `gpt-5.5` in the model picker.
4. Send a simple prompt such as: hi
5. The request fails immediately with:
{"type":"error","status":400,"error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"The 'gpt-5.5' model is not supported when using Codex with a ChatGPT account."}}

### Additional information
If `gpt-5.5` is shown as selectable for a ChatGPT Plus account, requests should run successfully.
At minimum, the model picker and backend entitlements should be consistent:
- either `gpt-5.5` should not be shown
- or it should be executable for the signed-in Plus account
