Description

@sriinnu

even with the latest release ((v0.98.0), I am getting the same error repeatedly and quite often

■ Codex ran out of room in the model's context window. Start a new thread or clear earlier history before retrying.

the cli then no longer takes further commands. The only way out is /new
