Add notify trigger when user permission is required during conversation #6348

Feature Request: Notify Trigger for Permission Requests during Conversation

Currently, the notify mechanism only runs after a conversation finishes, executing the user-defined notification script once the task is complete. However, during a session, Codex may pause and require the user to grant permission to execute certain actions, such as running a bash command. Users are often unaware that Codex is waiting for their input because no notification is triggered until the end of the conversation.

Proposed Enhancement:

• Implement a notification trigger that runs the user's notification script whenever Codex pauses to request permission from the user during an ongoing conversation, not just at the end.
• This trigger would alert users through their preferred notification channel (as defined in their script) that their input is required, ensuring they know to return to the conversation promptly.

Rationale:

• Users may step away during long-running tasks and not realize that Codex is awaiting their permission, leading to delays.
• A mid-conversation notify mechanism would improve the user experience by reducing idle time and helping tasks progress smoothly.

Thank you for considering this feature.
