What version of Codex is running?
0.25.0
Which model were you using?
gpt-5
What platform is your computer?
macos
What steps can reproduce the bug?
When I leave Codex unattended for a while, sometimes it randomly exits with this message:
The cursor position could not be read within a normal duration
I don't know if this makes a difference, but I'm usually inside a tmux session. I don't even know if this happens outside of tmux.
What is the expected behavior?
