Wrong TUI leaks into session

OpenAI Developer Community May 26, 2026

Possible technical cause of the “wrong TUI leaks into session” bug:

  • PTY/shared terminal sessions not fully isolated
  • stdout/stderr streams multiplexed incorrectly
  • incorrect reuse of session_id or websocket state
  • race conditions during session attach/detach
  • cached UI state not reset when switching agent/session
  • possible cross-talk between TUI renderer and backend event bus

Things worth checking:

  • strict per-PTY isolation
  • full cleanup on disconnect
  • renderer state invalidation
  • strong binding between user/session/terminal
  • locking around concurrent streams
  • separate namespaces for TUI state

This looks more like a session orchestration issue than an AI model issue itself.
