Feature request: add optional timestamps for user messages in Codex Desktop conversations

What variant of Codex are you using?

All

What feature would you like to see?

Codex Desktop currently allows an assistant to include timestamps in its own replies via instructions, but user messages do not appear to have a native visible timestamp in the conversation UI.

This makes long-running troubleshooting sessions harder to audit, especially when:

• a thread spans multiple hours or days
• the user needs to reconstruct when a local action happened
• context is compacted or resumed later
• the assistant is already asked to include timestamps in replies, but the user side remains untimestamped

Requested behavior:
Please add a Codex Desktop setting to show message timestamps for both user and assistant messages.

Possible options:

• Show timestamps for all messages
• Show timestamps on hover
• Use local timezone
• Support a clear format such as YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss
• Include timestamps in exported or archived conversation logs if export is supported

Environment:

• Product: Codex Desktop
• OS: Windows 11

Why this matters:
This would improve traceability for debugging, local system maintenance, long-running agent work, and timeline-sensitive conversations.
