What issue are you seeing?
When Codex is instructed to test code during the development process—a task involving a backend call to the terminal—it frequently results in the premature termination of the dialogue. Although Codex's output indicates that it is actively monitoring the test results in real-time, it fails to seamlessly re-engage in the conversation once the testing concludes. Furthermore, this issue appears to occur more frequently in scenarios involving long context windows.
