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

Version 26.409.20454 (1462)

What subscription do you have?

Enterprise

What platform is your computer?

MacOS

What issue are you seeing?

Codex app doesn't support /compact like the GUI does. I prefer the GUI in every other respect, but the ability to trigger a /compact manually is critical before starting a long+delicate operation, compaction in the middle inevitably causes quality drop issues.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Try to /compact in the GUI, doesn't work

What is the expected behavior?

Compacts the context just like CLI
