Clarify resume hints for renamed threads
What variant of Codex are you using?
CLI / TUI
What feature would you like to see?
When a thread is renamed, this message gets displayed:
"Thread renamed to {thread-name}, to resume this thread run codex resume {thread-name}"
Which does not work. In fact, duplicates among threads' names are allowed, so we cannot point a specific thread with its name. We have to give the thread id instead.
Also, regardless of renaming a thread, exiting the thread displays:
"To continue this session, run codex resume {thread-id}"
Which, I think, looks awkward.
I think we would need to polish a bit so:
/renamedisplays correct guide (unless we change the behaviour)./exitalso mentions the thread name if it's renamed.
For example, /rename may display
"Thread renamed to {thread-name}. To resume this thread run codex resume, then select {thread-name}({thread-id})"
/exit may display
"To continue this session, run codex resume, then select {thread-name} ({thread-id})".
