What feature would you like to see?

An incognito mode that prevents codex from saving any session-related data (including logs) to disk. This would be available both as a command-line argument and as a config option (for example as part of a profile). Consequently, the resume functionality would not work if enabled.

If #6015 is implemented, the separate config option would be redundant for the incognito mode if it is set to "0 days retention". It wouldn't really make sense to have the retention days as a command-line argument though.
