@remote tasks created from ChatGPT iOS do not appear in the Project task list on desktop, but are searchable
What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?
Version 26.707.31428
What subscription do you have?
GPT Pro
What platform is your computer?
Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.26200.0
What issue are you seeing?
When I start a @remote task from the ChatGPT iOS app (connecting to my own Codex machine), the task is created successfully and syncs to my account. However, it does not appear in the Project's task list on desktop.
The task is searchable on desktop and opens normally, so it appears to be an indexing/UI issue rather than a synchronization problem.
Tasks created from the desktop behave correctly and appear on both desktop and mobile.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
Open a Project in the ChatGPT iOS app.
Start a new @remote task connected to a local Codex machine.
Let the task begin running.
Open the same Project on desktop (chatgpt.com).
What is the expected behavior?
The new @remote task should appear in the Project's task list/sidebar, just like tasks created from desktop.
Additional information
Actual Behavior
The task does not appear in the Project task list.
Searching for the task on desktop finds it immediately.
Opening the task from search works normally.
The task functions correctly after opening.
Desktop-created @remote tasks appear correctly on both desktop and mobile.
Additional Observations
This appears to affect only tasks initiated from the iOS app.
Evidence that the task exists:
It is returned by desktop search.
It opens correctly.
It executes normally.
The only missing piece is that it is absent from the Project task list/sidebar.
This suggests the Project sidebar is either not indexing these tasks or is filtering them incorrectly.
Reproducibility
Occurs consistently for every @remote task created from iOS.
Does not occur for tasks created from desktop.
Possible Cause (optional)
The mobile client may not be attaching the Project metadata to newly created @remote tasks in the same way as the desktop client, or the desktop Project sidebar is filtering out mobile-created remote tasks despite them belonging to the project.
