Setup
- Codex desktop app on Windows
- Codex connected to a remote Linux host through a saved SSH connection
- Session steered from the ChatGPT Android app using Remote
Reproduction
- Open tasks from the Windows app's remote Linux workspace.
- Connect from Android Remote.
- Archive tasks from Android.
- Return to the Windows app task list.
Result
The tasks remain visible in the Windows active task list.
The remote Linux host reports the same tasks as archived: they are absent from the active task listing and present in the archived task listing. The archive write therefore reached the remote host, but the Windows sidebar did not update.
Expected
Tasks marked archived by the remote host disappear from the Windows active task list and appear under archived tasks.
