What issue are you seeing?

When using Codex through remote control in the ChatGPT iOS app, the skill picker can become impossible to use if the composer already contains a large prompt.

Observed behavior:

• The text box already contains a long piece of text.
• The user types in the composer to search/select a skill.
• The iOS keyboard takes up most of the screen.
• The top skill suggestions are rendered off-screen or hidden by the keyboard/viewport layout.
• The keyboard cannot be dismissed in a way that still allows the user to reach and select the top suggestion.
• As a result, the best matching/top skill is not selectable from the mobile remote-control UI.

This is more than a cosmetic issue: once a long prompt has been drafted, invoking a skill from the mobile remote-control surface can become blocked unless the user abandons or heavily edits the existing text.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

1. Open ChatGPT on iOS.
2. Open Codex remote control and connect to a macOS Codex App host.
3. In a Codex thread, write or paste a large prompt into the composer so the text box takes substantial vertical space.
4. Trigger the skill picker from the composer and type to filter/search for a skill.
5. Observe the suggestion list while the iOS keyboard is open.

What is the expected behavior?

The skill picker should remain usable on mobile regardless of composer length and keyboard state.

Possible expected fixes:

• Position the suggestions within the visible safe area above the iOS keyboard.
• Make the suggestions list independently scrollable.
• Keep the top/best matching result reachable.
• Provide a reliable way to dismiss the keyboard without losing the filtered suggestions or the ability to select a result.
• Clamp the long composer height while the picker is open so suggestions get priority in the visible viewport.
