Feedback ID: 019ed3eb-3d2a-7ab3-b411-3696949079bd

Codex app does not show recent unarchived local threads in sidebar/search

Component: Codex desktop app on macOS
Codex app/CLI version:

• App Version 26.611.61049 • Released Jun 16, 2026
• /Applications/Codex.app/Contents/Resources/codex --version
  codex-cli 0.140.0-alpha.19

Observed:

A recent thread exists in local sqlite and session files, archived=0, but it is missing from the Codex app sidebar/search and read_thread returns "No Codex thread found".

Example thread:
019ecd54-e44a-7f70-95fd-d83f313a6206

Evidence:

• Present in ~/.codex/sqlite/state_5.sqlite
• archived = 0
• rollout_path exists:
  ~/.codex/sessions/2026/06/16/rollout-2026-06-16T01-09-13-019ecd54-e44a-7f70-95fd-d83f313a6206.jsonl
• Present in ~/.codex/session_index.jsonl
• Missing from Codex app sidebar/search
• codex_app.read_thread says: No Codex thread found

Expected:

Recent unarchived threads should appear in the sidebar/search and be readable.

Notes:

The thread is large: tokens_used = 12591562.
Other recent threads still appear.
Switching sidebar filters / checking archived threads does not reveal it.
