Research direction
Start by locating the Codex remote-control connection lifecycle and reproduce a long-running task from a phone. Trace when the live connection disconnects and how completion notifications are delivered; done means the mobile session remains available through task completion or the phone receives the notification independently.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Problem
When using Codex remote control on a phone, the live connection only stays active for a few seconds. If the task runs longer than that, the connection drops before the run finishes, and the phone never receives the completion notification.
Expected behavior
The mobile remote-control session should remain connected long enough to receive task completion notifications, or Codex should deliver completion notifications independently of the live connection.
Actual behavior
After a short period, the remote connection disconnects. When the task completes later, no completion message/notification reaches the phone.
Impact
Long-running tasks become easy to miss on mobile because completion is only visible while the connection is still alive.
