What issue are you seeing?

I am running Codex CLI via ssh in PowerShell, after installing 0.131.0, I am seeing this stream of unexpected characters in PowerShell, it used to work perfectly in 0.130.0. Note that when I do "codex resume" the output is fine, but when I start a conversation or load up an existing conversation, this is what I'm seeing:

Note that running this on the local machine works with no problem, but when accessing via ssh I am seeing this issue.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  1. Connect via ssh in PowerShell 7.6.1 to a remote machine
  2. cd to the directory I want to work in
  3. run "codex resume"
  4. select the conversation
  5. hit enter
  6. I am seeing this stream of unexpected characters

What is the expected behavior?

Codex conversation launches as usual, just like in 0.130.0
