Codex Mac sidebar hides existing unpinned threads after update

Open 💬 1 comment Opened Jun 23, 2026 by eneskabacaoglu

Summary

After updating Codex Desktop for Mac, recent existing threads are not visible in the sidebar unless pinned. The threads still exist: internal thread lookup can find/read them, and pinning makes them appear.

Environment

  • Product: Codex Desktop for Mac
  • Current version: 0.142.0
  • Affected thread was created before the update
  • Host: local macOS

Observed behavior

  • A recent all-day thread was missing from the sidebar.
  • Internal thread listing could still find it.
  • Reading the thread by internal id worked.
  • Pinning the thread made it appear in the sidebar.
  • Unpinned visibility appears broken or filtered after the update.

Expected behavior

Recent local threads should appear in the sidebar without requiring pinning. If a project/worktree filter is active, it should be visible and searchable recovery should still work.

Suspected area

Sidebar thread index/filter hydration after update, possibly related to project/worktree scoping or older thread metadata migration.
