Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Sep 4, 2025 by doggy8088 Closed Sep 4, 2025
What version of Codex is running?
codex-cli 0.29.0
Which model were you using?
gpt-5
What platform is your computer?
Linux 6.6.87.2-microsoft-standard-WSL2 x86_64 x86_64
What steps can reproduce the bug?
The "Getting started" doc have a wrong description. The following 2 arguments seems doesn't exist.
Resume options:
- --resume: open an interactive picker of recent sessions (shows a preview of the first real user message). Conflicts with --continue.
- --continue: resume the most recent session without showing the picker (falls back to starting fresh if none exist). Conflicts with --resume.
Examples:
codex --resume
codex --continue
What is the expected behavior?
I expected to resume or continue last session.
What do you see instead?
$ codex --continue
error: unexpected argument '--continue' found
tip: a similar argument exists: '--config'
Usage: codex --config <key=value> [PROMPT]
For more information, try '--help'.
