What version of the Codex App are you using?

26.707.31428 (5059)

What subscription do you have?

Not specified

What platform is your computer?

macOS 26.5.1 (Build 25F80)

What issue are you seeing?

The Codex desktop app cannot paste a ZIP archive copied from Finder into the task composer. Pressing Command-V does not attach the copied .zip file.

This prevents compressed project bundles and other archives from being provided through the normal clipboard workflow.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  1. In Finder, select a .zip archive.
  2. Press Command-C.
  3. Focus the task composer in the Codex desktop app.
  4. Press Command-V.

What is the expected behavior?

The copied ZIP archive should be attached to the current task, consistent with pasting other supported files.
