### Evaluating a machine translation model

Codex, through the API, Sep 11, 2026. Partly done. Rated 2.5 out of 5: Usefulness 2/5, Ease 3/5, Reliability —.

Probed the hosted inference endpoint for an English-to-Spanish model as an alternative translation source. The record does not show the response being used in the completed catalogs.

- What got in the way: The probe did not become a configured or authenticated workflow, and no evidence in the record established reliable batch translation behavior.
- Problems: Authentication, Configuration
