I can reproduce a closely related case on macOS.

Codex App version: 26.422.21459 (2049)
Platform: macOS 26.4.1, Darwin 25.4.0, arm64

In Automations -> run history, recent archived automation runs show a red dot. This looks like a failure/alert indicator, but the underlying run state is successful/archived.

Local state for the affected runs:

  • automation_runs.status = ARCHIVED
  • automation_runs.read_at = NULL
  • automation_runs.inbox_title / inbox_summary are populated with successful messages such as "summary ready"
  • There are no matching rows in inbox_items

Observed behavior:

  • The archived run shows a red dot in the run history.
  • Clicking the red dot / row does not open a popover or clear the unread state.
  • Since there is no corresponding inbox item, I cannot discover what to read or how to mark it read.
  • The red dot makes successful archived runs look like failures.

Expected behavior:

  • A successful archived run should not use a red alert indicator unless action is required.
  • If archived automation runs can be unread, the row should expose the result summary and mark read_at when opened.
  • If there is no navigable inbox item, the app should either avoid creating an unread state or provide a clear "mark as read" path.
  • Red should be reserved for failed/degraded/needs-attention automation runs.
