"textContent": "I took a look at this by first reviewing your prompt and then walking through the steps manually, since I am somewhat familiar with the `.codex` directory.\n\nWhat quickly drew my attention was the reference to `.codex/state_5.sqlite`. That path appears to be hardcoded, and when I checked my own `.codex` directory, I did not find a `state_5.sqlite` file or directory. That said, I think your general approach of inspecting the `.codex` directory is correct, and it is what I would do as well.\n\nOne manual step that did work was searching the entire directory as plain text. Think grep; in my case, I used Notepad++. That search showed that the task name was located in:\n\n`~\\.codex\\session_index.jsonl`",
