Docs: /side works in Codex App but is missing from App commands page

What issue are you seeing?

/side works in the Codex App, but the Codex App commands page does not list it.

The App commands page currently lists /feedback, /goal, /mcp, /plan, /review, and /status, while the CLI slash command docs list /side as “Start an ephemeral side conversation.”

Expected behavior

Please add /side to the Codex App commands page, since it is supported in the App.

Why this matters

/side is the Codex equivalent of a side-question flow that does not pollute the main thread. It is especially useful during long-running App threads, but currently it is not discoverable from the App commands docs.
