What feature would you like to see?
The continue and resume commands are implemented but do not appear in --help.
Are you interested in implementing this feature?
Can be implemented immediately

I also want to execute it with short commands using -c and -r.

They were deliberately hidden: https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/3218
Trying to use --continue doesn't continue the previous session with the history, it appears to start fresh session and then when asked it tries to build the context but doesn't.
Is this expected? Coming from Claude code it appears to fail at continuing. what am I doing wrong?
@praneybehl same behaviour here, I had to downgrade to 0.3 which was the last stable release I used before 0.34
"resume" has been added to the help, and "continue" no longer exists as a command-line option, so I'm going to close this issue.
