What variant of Codex are you using?
Codex App Version 26.506.31421 (2620) on macOS
What feature would you like to see?
When starting a task with "New worktree" selected, the bottom status bar only says "Worktree". When you hover over this element, you can see the full path of the worktree in a popup, but you can't copy it.
It would be useful if it showed the worktree name/path and current branch/detached state without hovering, and allowed copy.
Suggested behavior:
- Bottom status chip shows something like: Worktree: 7159/xyz · my-branch
- Clicking it copies the name of the worktree
