Codex Desktop plugin search overlay renders as a large blurred panel that obscures plugin management UI
What happened?
In Codex Desktop, opening the plugin search UI from the plugin management page renders a large semi-transparent/blurred panel over most of the window. The panel obscures the plugin list and makes the UI hard to use. Some background content and controls remain partially visible behind/around the overlay, so the layer appears mispositioned or incorrectly clipped.
This happened in the current Codex Desktop version available to my account on 2026-05-12.
Steps to reproduce
- Open Codex Desktop.
- Go to the plugin management page. In my UI this is the
插件tab. - Click or focus the plugin search field (
搜索插件). - Observe the search overlay/popup.
Expected behavior
The plugin search popup should be positioned and clipped correctly, with readable search results and without covering unrelated areas of the plugin management page.
Actual behavior
A large blurred rectangular panel appears over most of the plugin management page. The contents behind it are heavily blurred, and parts of the underlying plugin cards/buttons are still visible outside the panel. This makes the plugin search UI difficult to inspect or use.

- Date observed: 2026-05-12

Additional context
I have a screenshot of the bug showing the plugin search overlay covering the plugin management page.
