Summary
Codex should support a fast continuation gesture: double-tap Enter to inject and send a lightweight continuation prompt automatically.
Problem
When a session is already flowing, the user often wants to nudge Codex to continue without restating intent manually. Right now that requires typing another prompt each time, even when the continuation intent is obvious.
Requested behavior
- Double-tap
Enterto send a continuation prompt automatically - The inserted continuation prompt can be chosen from a small rotating set such as:
let's keep goinglet's rollkeep it cominnow we're on a rolllets rock n rollkeep it groovincontinuous on our way to the dancefloor- The message should behave like a normal user continuation prompt once sent
- The feature should be optional/configurable if needed, but the core request is the interaction pattern itself
Success criteria
- A rapid double-
Entersends a continuation prompt without manual typing - The behavior is reliable and does not conflict with ordinary single-
Entersend behavior - The inserted prompt is visible/auditable in the conversation history
Related context
This is related to, but narrower than, a broader continuation-hint system request covering contextual follow-up hints, ephemeral refresh prompts, and a shared annotation/intention pass.
