Codex Git commit prompt does not work when using ChatGPT for iOS remote control on macOS #23111

What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

What issue are you seeing?

When using ChatGPT for iOS remote control to control macOS, the Codex Git commit prompt does not take effect after triggering the commit flow.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

1. Open Codex App settings on macOS.
2. Configure a custom Git commit prompt / Git commit instructions.
3. Open ChatGPT for iOS.
4. Connect to the macOS device using the remote control feature.
5. Start a Codex coding session with Git changes.
6. Trigger the Git commit prompt / commit flow.
7. Observe that the configured Git commit prompt is ignored or does not take effect.

What is the expected behavior?

The configured Git commit prompt should be applied normally during the commit flow, even when Codex is being controlled through ChatGPT for iOS remote control on macOS.

Additional information

1. The issue appears to be specific to the ChatGPT for iOS remote control workflow. The same Git commit prompt configuration works correctly when using Codex directly on macOS without remote control.
2. Codex can read ~/.codex/.codex-global-state.json correctly when explicitly instructed to do so manually. In that case, it is able to retrieve and apply the configured Git commit prompt successfully. This suggests the issue may be related to the remote control workflow not automatically loading or propagating the global state configuration.
