Can't select remote connection from the Mac desktop app "Work locally" menu

What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

Version 26.616.71553 • Released Jun 23, 2026

What subscription do you have?

Plus

What platform is your computer?

Darwin 25.5.0 arm64 arm

What issue are you seeing?

I have configured a connection on my local Mac Codex app to a remote Codex app running on a Mac Mini on my LAN (hostname "mini"). The connection shows as successful and connected (green "light").

When I select the handoff/run-location from the thread footer’s current run location selector, and mouse over the "Work locally" the "Work on mini" subitem appears but it can't be selected. I've tried selecting with keyboard navigation and that doesn't work either.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Make a connection to a remote Codex desktop session from a local Codex desktop session
Start a new thread
Attempt to change from "Work locally" to "Work on [hostname]"

What is the expected behavior?

I expect to be able to select "Work on mini" and hand off the session to the remote app.
