[Codex Desktop][macOS] "Open in IntelliJ" context action missing for .html file links (works for .java/.xml)
What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?
Codex Desktop 26.415.21839 (build 1763)
What subscription do you have?
plus
What platform is your computer?
macOS 26.0 (Apple Silicon)
What issue are you seeing?
In Codex Desktop, when I right-click an HTML file link shown in chat (example: src/main/resources/templates/module/pda/pickCnfmByItem.html), the context menu does not show "Open in IntelliJ".
For .java and .xml file links in the same environment, "Open in IntelliJ" is shown and works.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
- Open Codex Desktop on macOS.
- In a thread, right-click a
.htmlfile link rendered by Codex. - Check context menu actions.
- Compare with right-click on
.javaor.xmlfile links.
What is the expected behavior?
"Open in IntelliJ" should appear for .html links as well (same as .java/.xml).
