希望改进 Codex 左侧任务列表的管理体验：
恢复任务时间显示
建议显示“几分钟前”“几小时前”“昨天”等相对时间，或者提供“显示任务时间”的设置开关。
支持任务排序规则
当前有最新消息或最新进展的任务不会自动排到顶部，很难快速找到最近更新的任务。建议支持按以下规则排序：
最近更新时间
创建时间
未读优先
手动排序
最好允许用户选择默认排序规则。
修复未读小蓝点状态
已经打开并阅读过的任务，关闭并重新打开 Codex 后，有时又会重新出现未读小蓝点。希望已读状态能够正确保存，不要在应用重启后错误恢复为未读。
这些问题会影响任务较多时的查找和管理效率。建议恢复时间信息、增加可配置排序，并修复未读状态持久化问题。

I would like the task management experience in Codex's left sidebar to be improved:
Restore task timestamps
It would be helpful to display relative times such as “a few minutes ago,” “a few hours ago,” and “yesterday,” or provide a “Show task timestamps” setting.
Support task sorting options
Currently, tasks with the latest messages or progress do not automatically move to the top, making it difficult to quickly find recently updated tasks. Please support sorting by the following criteria:
Most recently updated
Creation time
Unread first
Manual ordering
Ideally, users should be able to choose the default sorting option.
Fix the unread blue dot status
Tasks that have already been opened and read sometimes show the unread blue dot again after Codex is closed and reopened. The read status should be saved correctly and should not incorrectly revert to unread after the app restarts.
These issues make it less efficient to find and manage tasks when there are many of them. Please restore timestamp information, add configurable sorting, and fix unread status persistence.
