Seems to have already been reported...
Still reproduces on Codex 149.0.7827.54 / Intel build.
Hardware: MacPro7,1 Intel x86_64
macOS: 15.7.7 (24G720)
Crash process: com.apple.dock.external.extra.x86_64
Plugin: /Applications/Codex.app/Contents/PlugIns/CodexDockTilePlugin.plugin
Signature: EXC_BAD_ACCESS / KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE
Stack: repeated recursion in -[CodexDockTilePlugin_com_openai_codex setDockTile:]
This appears to be the same issue as the arm64 reports, but on the Intel build / x86_64 Dock helper.
Update + restart did not clear the behavior.
