What version of Codex is running?
0.1.2504161551
Which model were you using?
gpt-5-codex high
What platform is your computer?
Darwin 24.6.0 arm64 arm
What steps can reproduce the bug?
This is for the Codex Extention (in VS Code Insiders- Local, Agent (full access), gpt-5-codex high). NOT CLI!
When I drag in an image to reference, it doesn't populate or give any visual indication that it acknowledges it- however, after click the '+' and adding the image from my file explorer, it then will recognize it twice.
What is the expected behavior?

Some of the other feature requests are similar, but they describe processes I don't- i.e. one of them descirbes if they drag/drop an image they see the file name, but I don't even see that. I get zero UI notice that the image was successfully dropped (even like the 'green plus' that typically comes when drag+dropping an image like into GHCP for example). Those other issues that have been raised are on the same topic, but none are the same bug/issue.
It's working for me now- thanks guys!
