What version of the VS Code extension are you using?
0.4.12
Which IDE are you using?
VS Code
What platform is your computer?
MacOS Darwin 23.6.0 arm64 arm
What steps can reproduce the bug?
Have a long enough conversation in the Codex IDE extension. You are forced to use the scroll wheel to move up and down. Making it compatible with "click middle mouse"+move mouse, like most browsers have. And a scroll bar on the side would be quite useful for long conversations.
What is the expected behavior?
Having a scroll bar on the side and being able to "click middle mouse"+ move the mouse up an down to scroll.
What do you see instead?
No scroll bar.
Middle mouse click does nothing

Definitely needed. Thanks for writing this up. I'm trying Codex in VS Code, Cursor & Windsurf - the lack of scroll bar for the Codex sidebar is very annoying after the chat gets to any decent length.
