What version of Codex CLI is running?
0.166.0
What subscription do you have?

Which model were you using?
gpt-5.3-codex
What platform is your computer?
Linux 6.19.10 x86_64 unknown
What terminal emulator and version are you using (if applicable)?
Alacritty
What issue are you seeing?
Sometimes, when I close the CLI and try to resume a previous session, I find that it hasn't saved some sections of the log. In the latest instance, 2 days of messages are gone. It's like the session logs didn't flush at exit.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
Doesn't happen always but this is not a SIGKILL issue. Natural exit where the CLI shows me the resume prompt and token usage stats also suffers this issue.
What is the expected behavior?
Session data should be flushed to the session logs every message to avoid data loss.
