After updating to Codex Desktop 26.519.41501 on macOS, the chat UI no longer shows the used context percentage / context-window indicator.

Environment:

  • macOS: 26.3.1 (25D2128)
  • Codex Desktop: 26.519.41501
  • Bundle version: 3044

Checked:

  • Restarted Codex
  • Tried different window sizes
  • Tried a new chat
  • CLI /status still reports context correctly: Context window: 99% left (14.3K used / 258K)

Expected: Desktop chat UI shows context-window usage as before.

Actual: No context usage indicator is visible in chat UI.
