What issue are you seeing?

In the Codex desktop app, the Automations (Beta) template library (“Start with a template”) is accessible only the first time (e.g., when there are no automations yet). After I create any automation, I can’t navigate back to that template/library view. There is no button or navigation item that brings me back to the library, and my existing automations also don’t appear there.

This makes it hard to discover templates again or manage automations from a single “library” place.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Steps to reproduce

1. Open Automations (Beta) in the Codex app.
2. View the template library (“Start with a template”).
3. Create an automation (e.g., via the Create automation modal).
4. Go back to the Automations screen where automations are listed.

Actual behavior

• The Automations screen shows only the Scheduled list (and a “+” button), but there is no way to return to the template/library view.
• The library seems reachable only when there are zero automations in the project (or only once at the beginning).
• There’s also no place where my automations appear inside the library view.

What is the expected behavior?

• There should be a clear way to open the Automations library / templates at any time (even after automations exist), e.g.:

• A “Browse templates” / “Library” button,
• A sidebar item,
• Or a “Back to library” link from the Automations list view.
• Ideally, the library could also include a section like “Your automations” so users can see both templates and their own automations in one place.
