What feature would you like to see?
Currently, codex seems it always flushes terminal buffer. (means that scrolling up won't show logs previously printed)
With current behavior, I cannot review what the AI did. Instead watching carefully while AI is working...
Compared to competitive CLI tools such as gemini, claude code, or etc. it is so frustrated.
I satisfied codex reasoning result but the TUI. This is big missing feature.
Additional information
Working on WSL with latest codex cli in vs code terminal.

That is huge problem
This is a real problem. When the reasoning is long, I only get the end of it. Take a chance? Keep telling till to tell me part by part wasting tokens?
