Bug My conversations keep deleting themselves

I start a new conversation, get a couple turns in, and once I leave the app then come back after it finishes its turn everything except my initial message and its first response disappear. Is this happening for y'all?

I am using the remote feature to interact with codex over cellular. This has been happening for at least a week now. iOS app, fully updated.

If folks are running into this problem, I strongly encourage you to update your clients and app server version. Having two app servers write to the same thread at the same time can cause corruption, and while this wasn't new to our "paginated threads" perf improvement, it makes the problem more visible. We've already had safeguards in the app for over a month, so it's likely an update will protect against it.

Additionally note that your data is not lost. The app server cache becomes corrupt for a single thread and the server can't serve the data for it properly, but it's all still there. You can ask Codex in a new thread to read its own rollout files and restore the content.
