  • macOS: Darwin 25.1.0 arm64 arm

The Rename task command is missing from the command palette in the Codex desktop app.

Opening the command palette and searching for terms such as rename, rename task, or task does not show an option for renaming the current task.

Tasks can still be renamed through the task’s context menu, but the equivalent command is not available from the command palette.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  • Open the Codex desktop app on Windows or macOS.
  • Open an existing task.
  • Open the command palette.
  • Search for rename or rename task.
  • Observe that no command for renaming the current task is shown.

What is the expected behavior?

The command palette should include a Rename task command that renames the currently open task.

This would make task renaming accessible through the keyboard-oriented command palette and keep the command palette consistent with the rename action available elsewhere in the interface.

Additional information

This report concerns the desktop app’s command palette specifically, rather than the general ability to rename a task through the context menu or the predefined keyboard shortcut.
