Review panel +/- totals update minutes late and fall out of sync with repository state

What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

26.325.21211 (1255)

What subscription do you have?

Plus

What platform is your computer?

Darwin 25.3.0 arm64 arm

What issue are you seeing?

After recent Codex App updates, the green/red +/- change totals in the review panel no longer stay in sync with the actual repository state.

The issue is specifically with the review panel summary counts. The panel can continue showing stale added/deleted totals even after the underlying Git status has changed. This used to update very quickly for me, but now it often lags or fails to refresh correctly.

Anecdotally, I’m seeing delays of around a few minutes before the +/- totals catch up, rather than updating close to immediately.

This makes the review panel unreliable as a quick summary of the current repo state, because the displayed +/- totals do not always match what is actually in the repository at that moment.

NOTE: The actual diff pannel does show the changed files correctly. It's only the top +/- that is out of sync

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  1. Open a repository in the Codex App.
  2. Make changes so the review panel shows green/red +/- totals.
  3. Continue modifying the repo state, for example by editing files, staging/unstaging changes, or otherwise changing what Git reports.
  4. Re-open or observe the review panel.
  5. Notice that the +/- totals in the review panel do not update immediately, or do not stay in sync with the repository state.
  6. In my case, the counts sometimes appear to catch up only after a delay of a few minutes.

What is the expected behavior?

The review panel +/- totals should update promptly and remain in sync with the repository’s current state.
I remember in earlier versions there was an active animation that would show those numbers change as files were updated. That is no longer the case.

Additional information

I can't exactly say when this happened, but it was definitely within the last 2 weeks of updates.
