Codex Desktop macOS bug: reboot desyncs paginated history
GravityPoet · ghdev · 2026-08-23
A bug in OpenAI Codex Desktop on macOS causes paginated threads to fail to resume correctly after a system restart, often getting stuck on old snapshots or becoming unresponsive.
The root cause is a race condition where a different app-server runtime post-reboot may write a record with a duplicate ordinal to the rollout log. This causes the history projection cursor to halt indefinitely. Symptoms include errors like 'failed to resolve rollout path' and 'conversation recovery failed'.
