What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?
26.422.21459 (build 2049)
What subscription do you have?
[fill in: Plus / Pro / Team / Enterprise / etc.]
What platform is your computer?
Darwin 23.6.0 arm64 macOS 14.8.5 (23J423)
What issue are you seeing?
A stray horizontal white rounded bar appears in the left sidebar, just above the "Settings" row.
It overlaps the conversation list area and looks like a detached overlay/rendering artifact. This breaks the sidebar layout visually and makes the UI look corrupted.
I attached a screenshot showing the issue.

What steps can reproduce the bug?
- Open Codex on macOS.
- Keep the left sidebar visible with recent conversations listed.
- Navigate between threads and/or resize/open the sidebar during normal use.
- Look at the lower part of the sidebar, above the "Settings" row.
- A horizontal white rounded bar may appear and overlap the sidebar content.
What is the expected behavior?
The sidebar should render cleanly, without any floating horizontal overlay or overlapping UI artifact.
Additional information
- The UI/content language was Chinese when this happened.
- The screenshot shows the artifact above the "Settings" row.
- If helpful, I can also provide a screen recording.
