Overview
A community user reports .cpp and .h files expiring immediately upon upload to OpenAI for over a week. They suspect duplicate filenames may trigger expiry and found that appending version suffixes (e.g., _01, _02) prevents it. This is unconfirmed by OpenAI but is a practical workaround to keep workflows running.
