@er260

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

Version 26.901.51231

What subscription do you have?

20 dollar

What platform is your computer?

macos

What issue are you seeing?

I code on a server and use the ssh connection feature of codex desktop. Not sure if this is just an ssh bug but every time the app restarts or reloads (all my session history dissapears) and i only see a small snapshot of the beginning of the convo. Super frustrating because I cant refrence past convos.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

ssh into a box do a long convesationg then quit and restart codex desktop. and the chat hsitory is missing.

What is the expected behavior?
