codex - 💡(How to fix) Fix Codex gets into a state that prevents more chats [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The issue may be resolved by modifying the Codex App to handle concurrent automations, potentially by skipping or pausing the current automation when a new chat is initiated.

Guidance

• Review the automation scheduling logic to determine if it can be modified to handle multiple concurrent chats without entering a bad state.
• Consider adding a feature to prompt the user for input when an automation is currently running and a new chat is initiated, allowing them to choose whether to skip or pause the current automation.
• Investigate the possibility of implementing a queueing system for automations to prevent conflicts between concurrent chats.
• Examine the feedback report (019ddc89-9e45-7422-946b-0cffc442e5d0) for more detailed information on the issue.

Notes

The provided information does not include specific technical details about the Codex App's architecture or codebase, so a more detailed solution cannot be provided.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Modify the automation scheduling logic to handle concurrent chats, as the issue is likely related to the app's current inability to manage multiple automations simultaneously.
