I’m seeing a recurring issue with Codex App remote projects.
I use Codex App on Windows and connect to a remote SSH server. For one remote project, conversations often disappear from the Codex App sidebar. However, when I SSH into the remote server, the conversation records still exist under the remote Codex directory:
~/.codex/session_index.jsonl
~/.codex/sessions/
~/.codex/archived_sessions/
For example, the remote session_index.jsonl still contains conversation entries, and the corresponding rollout-*.jsonl files still exist under ~/.codex/sessions/.
So the conversations are not actually deleted. They just no longer appear in the local Codex App UI.
Environment:
Codex App: 26.519.11010
Codex CLI: 0.133.0
Local OS: Windows
Remote OS: Linux
Connection type: SSH remote project
I also noticed that the local Codex App state appears to know about the remote project, but the local sidebar/session list does not display these remote sessions reliably.
Expected behavior:
Remote project conversations that exist in the remote ~/.codex/session_index.jsonl and ~/.codex/sessions/ should appear in the Codex App sidebar when I open that remote project.
Has anyone else seen this issue with Codex App remote projects?
