Already submitted as feedback (id: 019e0ee1-7a60-7db1-9a12-4714e0500ea1) but posting here so it's easier to track.
Codex is unable to close persisted subagents because there's no tool to expose them.
From Codex: "It looks like persisted app subagent/session records, and I don’t currently have a “list all sidebar subagents and close them” tool exposed, only close-by-agent-id."
I have greater than 69+ subagents due to this.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
