Seeing the same issue with:

Steps to reproduce: Codex 0.36.0 on ubuntu linux. Use codex resume on a session 12 hours old. Try to continue interacting with the agent. Seems like a security token may have expired.

Fix: Just enter /new. But the old session is unrecoverable.

Switching from API to ChatGPT auth is another way to reproduce this. Ran into it today.

Apparently, logging out and switching back to the API auth fixed this issue on my end.

You can also resolve this by just creating a new chat.

Not a solution by any means. Having to constantly rebuild a context with an agent is an awful waste of my money, since I pay for it.
