What issue are you seeing?
I asked codex to do something and first it replied to that message, but then they replied to the message before the last one (forgetting to reply to the final message). I experienced it both on CLI as well as in the Desktop App.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
Uploaded thread: 019d551f-201b-79c2-bce8-0932dcc1789e
What is the expected behavior?
Codex should always reply to the last message (I didn't steer many messages, or queue them etc. it was only one message)
