I noticed on a couple schedules I setup in Codex desktop has a bunch of open browsers and it doesn't clean up automatically eating up RAM.
I modified AGENTS.md and skills after I noticed this but wish Codex natively did this (maybe via some hook-ish mechanism that notifies the agent on appropriate place, or making the open Browser/Computer-use/... UI visible inside the agent context too so it can implicitly tidy things on it's own.
I'm solely using gpt-5.6-sol on high/extra-high.
