What is the expected behavior?

i know that the fact that it works for others doesn’t mean anything, but it’s just to show that there’s nothing wrong with the image. the first image is the one i’m sending. i ask questions about the image and codex-cli doesn’t answer anything correctly, not a single table header is right, while gemini (which has a terrible cli) gets everything correct. (claude obviously does too)
