What issue are you seeing?
When I start a session with codex --add-dir /path/to/dir, I have to tell codex to check the directory manually each time, and the dir isn't auto-completable which makes the experience not great.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
- Start a session with
codex --add-dir /path/to/some/other/dir - Ask questions about things in that dir, try to use
@to mention files there
What is the expected behavior?
@ should be able to complete files in the added dir, and agent should try to look into the added dir automatically
