Merge related queued messages in Codex Mac app

What variant of Codex are you using?

App Macos

What feature would you like to see?

When using the Codex Mac app during development, I sometimes add several queued messages that all refer to the same UI element or the same requested change.

In many cases, these separate queued messages could be combined into a single clearer instruction. Right now, the queue can become noisy and repetitive, which makes it harder to review and increases the chance of conflicting or fragmented guidance.

Proposed improvement
Add a contextual action or button that appears when multiple queued messages seem to concern the same element or topic.

Example behavior:

Detect queued messages that are likely related
Show a suggestion such as “Merge and rewrite”
Combine those queued messages into one cleaner, consolidated instruction
Preserve the original intent while removing duplication

Why this would help

Reduces clutter in the queue
Makes instructions clearer before sending
Lowers the risk of contradictory or overlapping requests
Improves workflow speed when iterating quickly on the same component
